Who: lil orphan ani + u
Broadcast: fleetwide
Action: paisley
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. ]

Don't yell, Anakin. Where are you?

[ Paisley, was it? Obi-Wan has already left his room and is making his way to the shuttles. ]

[Ahsoka chuckles.]

No need to yell. It works just fine. It's just like a comm.

[Unlike Obi-Wan, Ahsoka doesn't recognize Anakin immediately. Why would she? This kid looks nothing like the old master she knows.]
beardstrokes: (Depend greatly on our point of view)

[ Obi-Wan winces. He had hoped that there'd be some small spark of recognition, but that seems unlikely. ]

It is your room. It belongs to you.
resnipstance: smile, interested (89)

The technology here is kind of... strange.

We're a long way away from the Core. Everything's bound to be a bit different. I wouldn't recommend taking apart your communicator, though. Otherwise, how are people going to contact you?

[She gives him a cheeky eyebrow raise.]
beardstrokes: (When in doubt go to the source)

[ Obi-Wan stops to a dead halt. He should have expected that question and yet the simplicity of it stalls him completely. No cleverly worded answer seems to come and he knows every second he wastes thinking about it would only feed into Anakin's unease. ]

She's - all right. She's waiting for you on Tatooine. You'll be back there soon.

[she was listening to most of the broadcast without comment, but the screaming takes her off guard]

—Please don't do that, oh my god.
resnipstance: surprise (133)

1/2

[personal profile] resnipstance 2016-12-02 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Surprised:] Your master...?

[There's no mistaking his meaning-- he definitely isn't talking about a master in the Jedi sense of the word. A memory comes to Ahsoka, unbidden-- a similar situation, almost a year ago now. A slave girl called Koala who had found herself here.]
resnipstance: skeptical (45)

[personal profile] resnipstance 2016-12-02 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you don't need to worry about that here, I promise. Your master, whoever he is, isn't here.

[ Child, please. ]

It's working, you don't need to shout. Our destination is unknown for now.
resnipstance: surprised, confused (57)

[personal profile] resnipstance 2016-12-03 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[... Ruh roh.]

... Wait. Your name is Anakin?

[I have a bad feeling about this.]
resnipstance: skeptical, amused, fond, eyebrow raise (105)

[personal profile] resnipstance 2016-12-04 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
No-- no, that's not it. I mean, I do know a guy called Anakin, but... he's a lot older than you. Mid twenties.
beardstrokes: (If you ignore the past)

[ He tries to keep talking as he moves. ]

It's a temporary . . . mistake.

[ Please let it be temporary. ]

I will tell you if you lower your voice.

[ His lips twitch despite himself. ]

I'm sure you are.

Either way, you'll have to stay here for a little while before we can go back to Tatooine. Is that all right?
