Hey! Soooooo since we're all stuck here, and going outside on this planet kinda sucks bigtime right now, I've been making it a project of mine to try and learn as much as I can about the different cultures of the other worlds people here are from! Particularly Earth, because there's so many of you! Someone told me the collective noun is "Earthlings"? Anyway.

I've been trawling through the media library, but to be honest, I'm not very good at sitting and reading for long periods of time. So I figured, why not just ask you guys instead?

Tell me one (or more!) thing about your home world that you think is culturally significant. It can be traditional, religious, social, or pop culture is fair game too! After all, it's no fun when people are making pop culture references that fly over my head.

The only rule is that you can't say the same thing as someone else. You ready? Go!

Hmm. Tell me your favourite thing about Naboo?

Can I say my family, or is that cheating?

[resnipstance]

Not at all. I don't think I actually know that much about your family. Would you tell me about them?

Let's see. I have my parents, an older sister, and a niece. [ Or two. Thanks, canon. ]

They live together outside of Theed. My parents do relief work, both on Naboo and throughout the system. My father is also a professor and [ an amused smile. ] my niece is studying politics.

Relief work, huh.

... Do you think-- um. Maybe... [Ahsoka hesitates, trailing off.]

Maybe...?

[resnipstance]

Maybe... in three years time, when you're caught up to me... do you think you could put me in contact with them?

Some relief work might be nice.

[ Her smile is kind, understanding. ]

Of course. I know they would be happy to have you. If I happen to forget, just look up Ruwee Naberrie. He'll recognize you.

[ She's told her family about Ahsoka, of course. ]

... Thank you.

Sometimes I feel like... maybe that's the kind of work we should have been doing from the start.

It's what the Jedi used to do. I met Obi-Wan because he and Master Qui-Gon were sent as negotiators.

[ It didn't work out that way, but they didn't come as warriors. It occurs to her that Ahsoka has learned on the battlefield, not on diplomatic missions or relief efforts. It makes her sad in a way she can't (or perhaps won't) say. ]

Hearing Obi-Wan being referred to as "General Kenobi" took a little getting used to.

[ "General Skywalker"... she still isn't used to that one. ]

[resnipstance]

I know. I did grow up in the Temple, you know. [Unlike Anakin.]

[diplomacme]

I'm not really privy to how the Temple works, though that one should've been obvious.
