When: today

[ VIDEO ]
[ the video feed turns on to a child, no more than ten. he doesn't say a word at first and spends a few minutes curiously poking and prodding, shuffling the communication device around. he opens his mouth wide and the camera gets a nice view of his tonsils.

there are more pokes and shuffling when it's his full face again. ] This is so new and weird, it must be from the Core. I've never seen anything like this before...!

[ he yells into it. ]

Hello! Is this thing working? Where is this ship heading?

[ ACTION; on paisley ]
[ he has to be very quiet. and he's good at being quiet. he's snuck around watto so many times now, sneaking around is practically a honed skill. it's really cold here, though, and he's not used to that at all.

as he makes his way through paisley, he tries to find the warmest spot on the ship. he bumbles through the kitchen quietly, trying not to get caught by anyone that might be in there. and he eventually ends up finding the crew rooms. he doesn't know who's is who's. all he knows is he's in space, onboard a ship traveling in space! off tatooine! he enters the first room and wraps himself in the blankets found there. hopefully no one misses their blankets.

he takes off with the makeshift wrap and works his way through the rest of ship, making quiet pitstops here and there. he marvels at the pilot station, gawks at the engineering lab a bit then scurry quickly to the cargo bay where it's big and spacious and no one could possibly find a kid there. ]

[ anakin fix her a curious stare. he doesn't know her but he's heard that one really nice deep space pilot tell him stories.

his imagination takes off. ]

I guess I am. [ he stares into the bowl of odd protein cubes in front of him. ] Do you want some?

[diplomacme]

[ Padmé frowns in concern. He looks okay, but he doesn't seem to recognize her. ]

No, thank you. Are you sure you're alright, Ani? You seem a little off.

[sandhate]

[ he gets up and goes to her to reassure her. ]

I am. [ he takes her hand and brings her to sit with him ] I don't know you though. But I feel like I should.

[diplomacme]

[ She lets him guide her and sits next to him. Padmé leans forward to examine him more closely. She doesn't see any bumps on his head or bruising.

How could he not remember? Maybe it's the reverse of what happened to Obi-Wan.

Either way, it doesn't ease her worry at all. ]

My name is Padmé. We met on Tatooine, in Watto's junk shop.

[ Perhaps that will help his memory. ]

[sandhate]

[ his hands are cold but that's not something he's going to tell her yet. he stares openly at her, as if trying to place her somewhere she doesn't quite belong. ]

I don't think I could have ever forget meeting you. [ he elaborates while tucking his arms and legs closer to himself ] I heard from the deep space pilots that the angels from the moons of Iego are the most beautiful beings in the whole galaxy. You would never forget meeting one.

[diplomacme]

[ Padmé laughs softly, but it's not an unkind laugh. It's warm and fond, like he's told an old joke. But she sees him curling in on himself and realizes his hand feels cold. She frowns in concern. ]

You must be cold. Let's find a blanket.

[sandhate]

[ he decides he likes it when she laughs; it's light and musical, nothing like that on tatooine. anakin slides out of his bar stool and slips his (cold) hand in hers. ]

Okay! I don't know where the blankets are, but we can find them together.
