Broadcast: Opening Video
Action: Marsiva
When: Today

On the Marsiva

[This is not the first time Phasma has awoken somewhere strange in her underwear, but two times is too many and by the time she's dressed and vacated her room (which didn't take long), she's definitely wearing a marked scowl. Dressed in the crisp white uniform she had in Blanc, complete with cape, she stalks her surroundings and does her best to get her bearings.]

[At least the level of technology here seems to be closer to what she's used to.]

Video

[The feed that's running when she arrives gets everything up until the moment she's dressed and ready to go and notice the device. A brief closeup of her face as she picks it up, inspects it, and then the feed cuts.]

[There is really nothing he could or would say to reassure her and neither would be served by empty words so he moved on instead.]

Yes, one from the Old Republic. She referred to as the Jedi from her time as war criminals and expressed her satisfaction that we were able to deal with the Senate and the Republic once and for all.

[He's still wrapping his mind around it as well.]

I'm wary though, while the Jedi seem to have nothing to gain by such deception, they are already aware of the destruction of the Hosnian System, there may be something else. We must still remain on guard.

[Phasma narrows her eyes as she lets that information sink in. No, she wouldn't trust a Jedi, not completely, but it sounded like she'd be a useful tool. Whatever her reasoning, though, it's a good start.]

We must always remain on guard. [If the defeat of Starkiller Base was any indication, even at their most powerful they are not invincible to the annoyances of guerilla warfare. What ifs were useless unless used to gain insight for further battles.] I will require her name, as well as the other Jedi and rebel personnel.

[Well, that's a given, pretty much.] What can you tell me about this 'reality show' that we are here for?

[Such useless frivolities]

Barriss Offee. Her name wasn't familiar to me, I don't believe I've come across it in what information about the Old Republic was accessible. Obi-Wan Kenobi is here as well as a Jedi I'm not familiar with. She and the Resistance pilot know each other though.

Padme Amidala as well though I'm not certain what time period she is from.

[And he's not even going near the whole Skywalker fiasco.]

It seems to be almost similar to a holodrama such as you would find in the Core but not staged from what I understand. There are ratings and monetary rewards for keeping them high. I'm not sure how it's useful though, the technology we have access to here isn't worth purchasing but it's still a resource to be used if necessary.

[What he wouldn't give for a good sized kyber crystal at least...]

[She thinks on the name, although no, it's not familiar to her. She does glance over at the mention of Padme, though.]

Unfortunate. We can only hope that she is too early on to be of any use as a rallying leader.

[A rabble of rebels is never a good thing, but give them a leader, and they dig in like ticks.]

Is there perhaps a way to use the show mechanics to garner an upper hand?

She doesn't seem to be yet. Tread carefully around her though.

[Something which was fortunate for them, Padme had left behind quite a legacy. Not to mention Padme was the grandmother of their favorite Darth Vader impersonator. He wondered what would happen of Ren did show up- that would be interesting.

He glanced at her, nodding.]

I'm sure we could. What do you have in mind?

[She pauses for a moment in thought.]

As far as I'm aware, I didn't speak when the device was recording me on arrival, and there do not exist documents here of me out of my armor. It is possible I will not be recognized so long as I do not speak. [Amidala, certainly, would not know her. Whether or not Kirk or Aria chose to dispense any of their meetings with her, she wasn't sure.] It might just buy us some time if I can this to my advantage.

AS for the holodrama ... is there benefit to swaying the audience in our favor? Revealing these rebels as the lawless guerrilla fighters they are?

That could work, actually, given Kylo Ren isn't here and only FN-2187 really would be able to recognize you out of your armor. [He paused to consider the situation before nodding.]

We'll have to avoid any association, only speak in encrypted messages and meet only on planets. You'll be able to gather more information on those from our galaxy or outside it than I would. Let them focus on me instead, they won't be looking for you. [He's alright with basking in the hate and anger of the Republic, the Resistance, and their friends here.]

I've been working on that, the Jedi is the first step I believe. She understood the need for change. [He took out his datapad, tapping it in his hand.]

The trick would be to provoke the rebels just enough to prove our point. It may be a process though but I'm certain, with enough manipulation, we can pull it off. I have some information from our records and the Imperial records saved here that, if used carefully, can certainly have an impact.
