Mission 001 | Video

[padawansnips]

[There is an orange-skinned girl on the feed with white facial tattoos. Please do not adjust your communication devices, she is actually orange. Since her arrival she's shed her many layers of clothes and right now she appears to be in the lift.]

I'm Padawan Ahsoka Tano. For those of you who are wondering, I am an alien. A species called a Togruta. I'm also a Jedi apprentice and helping out in the shuttlebay.

[She hasn't been sleeping well for the last six days but that shouldn't give her hallucinations already. Which means what she saw was real. Plus hallucinations don't try to lock her in her room.]

Master Kenobi, Skyguy. We've got a bit of a problem. There's this droid, an R3 unit that's sort of out to get us on board the ship. He's a Sep spy and a stubby, little back-stabber. I can catch him but I don't have the skills to reprogram him.

Everyone else should be on the lookout for a gold and black droid - he looks exactly like Artooie except for the color. Don't let him near anything he can sabotage. If you see him electric shocks work best to put him out of commission. Try not to shoot him or slice him in half. Stubby can be a big help once he's not working against us.

You know General Kenobi?

[Now that's interesting.]

[padawansnips]

I know him better than he knows me. [Timeline shenanigans.]

He's taken over my Jedi training. [Because her Master is still a Padawan too.]

[Abby's staring at the screen, blinking slowly, and is pretty sure she recognizes maybe one or two words somewhere in all of that.]

... what?

Video

[padawansnips]

[She didn't know how much sense that would make to the rest of the population. Guess now she does.]

Which part are you questioning?

[leaps]

[ wait what ]

Is there a droid on the loose?

[padawansnips]

Yep. An evil droid. Well, it's not his fault he's evil.

[enforced]

By sep you mean, I would assume, separatist?

When did you see him?

[padawansnips]

Yeah, programmed by General Grievous who's basically Dooku's right arm.

Ten minutes ago. I had to escape my room to chase after him and he got into the lift shaft.

[puppydogeyes]

He a threat to people?

[padawansnips]

Shouldn't be. Not unless you're part of the Republic or a Jedi.

[longestnose]

Ah, in the shuttlebay, lass? You should come by--my brother and I have a small forge in one of the unused bays.

--and what is an artooie?

video;

[padawansnips]

[She brightens upon seeing him.] I will definitely come by, Fili.

Artooie is just my nickname for him. Artoo is a droid too.

[thebreakingwave]

Hullo, I'm Harry and I think I might've seen you in the shuttle bay a bit. I'm usually trying not to break things in the corner.

I'll keep an eye out for him.

[padawansnips]

Hello Harry. Probably, I've been hanging around since I arrived after the last jump. Are mechanics not your thing?

Thanks. He's a small droid compared to this giant rust-bucket.

( voice. )

[carbonite]

Great, another Jedi.

( voice. )

[padawansnips]

Not a fan of Jedi?

[visionless]

[Oh hey he actually knows her species and he's not so grumpy as to not be happy to see a Togruta around. Even if it's not who he wishes she was he'll take what he can get.]

I'm beginning to wonder if your arrival here, coupled with that of Master Feln, is an attempt to bring in some variety among those here, Padawan.

[He'll get around to introducing himself eventually...]

video

[padawansnips]

[The name is familiar. Something she learned at the Temple...]

You know Master Feln? This place does seem to be a little lacking from what I've seen.

[Plenty of humans and creatures she's never even heard of but nothing familiar.]

[2leftfeet]

Is it outfitted with its own weapons system?

voice;

[padawansnips]

He can shock people, and has a utility saw. The most dangerous thing about him is that he has the knowledge to sabotage machinery.

[toomuchtenacity]

Isn't that like brainwashing though?

Text

[padawansnips]

Someone else reprogrammed him first. He gets people killed now.

voice

[testgasm]

Right, so, I've got some words, for you, mostly regarding the fact that you're out to reprogram someone. We don't do that here, not without explicit permission from the party you wish to reprogram.

voice

[padawansnips]

[This is not going to be one of those good conversations.]

He's already been reprogrammed. I intend to restore his original programming. The one that makes it so that he isn't out to kill me or anyone else on the ship.

[darkforce]

[there's some beeping in the background from a certain other droid, before that fades away completely.]

If you corner him, Artoo'll shut him down for now. He's heading your way.

[meanwhile, the feed twists a little as he starts making his way in the opposite direction.]

Get him to my room and we'll start your lessons there.

[in other words, hi ahsoka. time to learn to reprogram a droid]

video;

[padawansnips]

[She knows that beeping. No time to talk about that though and Ahsoka nods.]

Got it, Master. [Oops.] Skyguy.

[There's going to be a lot of slip-ups like that one.]
