meanwhile, on the ss babysitting duty

Who: Ahsoka Tano, you
Broadcast: Video
Action: OUT AND ABOOT
When: 31st

ACTION
[Ahsoka is wandering around outside with her usual air filtration mask on, but something is different-- obviously different. This isn't the sixteen-maybe-seventeen year old girl of yesterday. This is a pre-teen. And she seems lost.]

... Skyguy? ... Master Kenobi? I know you guys are around! You can come out now...! "Prank the padawan" isn't funny any more...

[She shudders.] This planet is giving me the creeps.

VIDEO
[The video is simple: a young, familiar alien graces the screen, except... something's off. Way off. It's not just that her clothes are different-- she's shorter, horns smaller, too. When she talks, her voice is more high pitched, and the cadence different too. Less... calm.]



Hey! Is everyone just okay with the fact that we can't go outside without air filters?! What sort of condition is this for people to live in? What's being done to help the local inhabitants? Or move them off-world?

I need to speak to the person or people in charge! Immediately.

[resnipstance]

What! But that's not fair!

... Not even how tall I am?

[... Some things never change.]

[beardstrokes]

I think I'm being quite fair, actually.

[ He makes a show of pretending to think hard. ] Well. You do get taller.

[resnipstance]

[That seems to cheer her up.]

Taller than you?

[beardstrokes]

Not yet, Ahsoka. Not yet.

[resnipstance]

Awwww. Well, can't blame a girl for trying.

[beardstrokes]

I suppose I can't. But you do an admirable job of catching up.

[resnipstance]

[That perks Ahsoka up even more.]

That's me! Captain Admirable.

[After a beat:]

Soooo. What's the escape plan, Master Kenobi?

[beardstrokes]

[ Smoothly. ]

Still in the works, Ahsoka. And considering we're being watched for the sake of some holodrama, it's best not to say in public.

[resnipstance]

[Ahsoka's eyes narrow to form her typical judging expression-- not Obi-Wan, though. Never Obi-Wan.]

Oh, we'll give them something to watch.

[She has no doubts even for a second about their ability to get out of this. They always do.]

[beardstrokes]

Let's not and say we did.

[ Especially right now, when she's so young. ]
