that's really cool! and sounds like a great idea, honestly. we had some autonomous helper robots on my planet, but there are considerably fewer now.

take these ships were on theyre slaved to the marsiva in a lot of ways if they were run by droids instead of a central computer you couldnt do that at least not in the same way and we could probably escape not that we have anywhere to go but you get the point

oh yeah were they androids like you mentioned

Our helpers weren't, no. Small flying droids, though I've met some androids, like Vision.

theyd probably fit right in with our droids then i didnt know there were androids here though i guess i havent seen them around

Vision might be more complicated than I realize. Anyway, there was one at home, too, but he was being controlled by someone who was bad news.

im sure somebody somewhere found a way to control droids but thats why they make them in all different kinds of models and specialties so its more difficult like if you wanted to control a single squadron of xwings youd have to know what kind of astromechs all of them had and then have a way to control each of them itd be pretty hard if they were all the same it would be too easy just look at how the droid armies lost in like five minutes on naboo

Well, and this was the guy who created this particular android so he was in a unique position. but yeah, that sounds like a better system

what happened on naboo?

oh it was a pretty stupid war between the trade federation and the republic but in a lot of ways it was where the empire started so its important to know and moreover the failure of a sustainable droid army was why the next big army that came up was clones and that led to stormtroopers and so on

stormtroopers?

soldiers conditioned from birth into absolute obedience to be the crack troops of the empire and then the first order they became a symbol of the absolute power those organizations controlled

i used to be one before i realized everything they told us was a lie and i ran away

oh wow

it's just weird because that's also what elite nazi soldiers were called. maybe that's the connection. it's so amazing you realized it was wrong, though.

really wow that would explain it then maybe someone just got confused with the terminology

yeah its supposed to be impossible to break conditioning but maybe they did it wrong with me

or they're just not as good as they think they are

i dont think so because if that was true there would be a lot more troopers breaking conditioning

would they tell you if there were?

considering how badly they wanted to hunt me down for being a traitor yeah they would

huh. i would've figured they wouldnt' want to give anyone else any ideas.

is that how you and Poe met?

stormtroopers arent supposed to have ideas except whats fed to them

yeah he was captured during my first battle when i decided i wasnt going to kill for them i pretended my weapon jammed and i had to escape before they could figure i was lying but even though i couldnt save the villagers there was someone i could still save so i broke him out and we escaped in a tie fighter

that sounds very exciting.

never been more terrified in my life

but you did it anyway. that's pretty incredible.

i had to

but thanks thats nice of you to say

i know how hard it is to leave everything familiar to you. i didn't have a choice, though

sometimes its what has to be done the important thing is what you do with the choices you have

exactly! i agree completely
