I feel like I can take on the whole Empire myself!

Characters: Luke Skywalker, open.
Summary: Being a fairly friendly guy and preparing for the mini-rebellion. 
Warnings: NAIVE IDEALISM

A. Corridors between the Ag-Wing and Housing

[The first thing he'd done after the zombie attack was catch up on sleep. The second was to get back out on the job. The weapons fire hadn't exactly been kind to the hallways or to some of the systems, so someone had to jury-rig them back into something resembling order. The cleaning was the easy part - making sure the knocked out lights and holes in the wall were patched up was more difficult. After all, it wasn't like they had a giant surplus of spare parts lying around. 

Good thing he's used to working less. 

He can be found trying to weld a ragged patch over some bullet holes. He might also have a bit too much wiring and spare odds and ends in his toolbox than is strictly necessary for the job's he's doing.] 

B. The Observatory


[Even Luke needs a break sometimes. He finds a spot in the observatory where he can watch the stars and settles in to relax for a bit. After a few moments, he pulls a small, model-sized X-Wing out of his pocket and uses his hand to take it through a few random maneuvers before he gives a little snort, a shake of his head and stuffs it back in his pocket. He has a lot to think about. Especially considering what he's about to do. Mostly to himself, but half to anyone in the room, he speaks up.]

None of those stars look familiar. It's strange....

Comments

[taggingwomprats]

Yeah, actually. Did my best to help out where I could...

[He heaves a sigh.]

Talk about messy.

[deadlybanker]

I can only imagine.

[Or... not. He'd been involved in the fighting too he just preferred to keep his involvement quiet. Assassin's did like to keep their actions secret. ]

This is a good a place to rest. Even if the stars are unfamiliar it has the best view of them.

[taggingwomprats]

They feel a bit cold... I guess I should be used to it, though.

[Considering how much time he spends traveling in space, anyway. He gives Giovanni a rueful look.]

Maybe it's this station. Oh - I'm Luke, by the way.

[deadlybanker]

[Understandable enough. Being trapped with so many people in such a small place with only the stars to look at could make them lose their luster. ]

Giovanni Auditore da Firenze. It is a pleasure to meet you.

[taggingwomprats]

Nice to meet you.

[Moon base aside.]

[deadlybanker]

[Yes, well, the meeting itself was nice but he would too could have done without the moonbase. ]

The toy you had, may I ask what it is? It is some kind of plane?

[taggingwomprats]

This?

[He digs in his pocket for the model.]

It's a starfighter. An X-Wing.

[deadlybanker]

A starfighter? Does that mean, even if the stars here are unfamiliar, you are at least accustomed to being in space?

[taggingwomprats]

Yeah. I've spent the last few years of my life traveling around the galaxy.

[And fighting galactic evil.]

[deadlybanker]

Davvero? Not only is it possible to live among the stars but you can travel between them as well?

[Giovanni was thoroughly impressed! ]

We were only beginning to understand the sun in my time. It is remarkable what people can accomplish when given the chance.

[taggingwomprats]

We've been doing it for thousands of years, now. You guys will probably get there eventually.

[Because everyone will have hyperdrive!]

[deadlybanker]

Long after my time perhaps.

[Something like that would take centuries to work out. ]

[taggingwomprats]

At least you know what your descendants are looking forward to, right?

[deadlybanker]

They will have much to do to get to this level, but if I can ever make my way back home I will make sure they start trying for it.
