(welcome to the shuttle bay with han and obi-wan. excuse the fact that there's a shuttle that han's stripped and that obi-wan generally looks like he has a bad feeling about all of this.)

I think if you follow the guidelines set by the Security Team, you should be safe. Stay in groups. Don't engage.

(there's a beep and a long protest as Arfour says something, but she's not in view. that's when han just takes off his goggles off to actually prove obi-wan wrong.)

No, this is what you do. If you see a pirate? Shoot them. (wait, this is a jedi he's talking to.) Or use the Force, you know what you do.

(obi-wan looks irritated for a moment, but he'll take this moment to roll his eyes and cross his arms)

If you don't have training, don't engage.

If you don't have training, get someone else to shoot them. If they talk to you, shoot them. If they even look at you, shoot them. If they ask you how you're doing, shoot them. If they're dying outside your room, watch them die and then shoot them to make sure they don't get up.

(han's getting a little serious about this.)

I'm going back to work.

(aaaaaand Obi-Wan walks a little away, Arfour beeping after him, but she's still not visible on screen)

Don't touch anything, I'm redoing the - (han was running after him before running back to turn off the communicator.)

Or half a brain.

(han leans against a shuttle, arms crossed.) This is not good.

This is getting worse by the second.

[He's reading - this is a government vessel. They know more about this ship and it's not helping Obi-Wan's bad feelings at all]

You think they're gonna buy that we have no parts?

(because while han might seem stupid, he's not.)

No one with any kind of experience with a ship like this would think that we're not supplied with at least some basic parts.

[He slips his hands into his sleeves, the grown up Jedi pose]

What they might not believe is that we don't have any spare parts. We have some, but not enough.

We could boobytrap the place.

(there's a reason for the stripped ship.)

Shouldn't be that hard.

We need to get them to see reason and leave.

Lets be honest. If you had boarded this ship, and seen the things it contains, would you stay?

I say that high chances of death will make them want to cut their losses and run.

(han thinks about it for a moment. he had snippets of when he was a kid what they'd do before:)

Yeah. And if it was the guy I worked for, we'd take the entire ship. Without passengers.

They're unlikely to be able to do that.

They can still get whatever they can. Slave labor is probably still legal in some systems.

For that, they would need to control the ship.

Even if they can't get control of the ship, they can still take us. The ship doesn't care whether or not we're here.

I don't think taking us is all that simple.

[He says that with the eternal patience of someone who is having a lot of bad feelings.]

Because we will be shooting them. I know you guys want to do the right thing and not kill them, but these are pirates.

[He shakes his head]

I should find Senator Organa.

That would probably be a good idea. (can't have him dead... yet, anyway.)
