OMFG! Anakin might do ~something~ *pearl clutch* (darkforcerising) wrote in makebelievelog,

The swoop bike in question was a Mobquet Zephyr-G, designed for speed but incidentally could be used for utility as well. An ideal combination for the citizens of Tatooine who tended to view laws as guidelines that could be flouted for self-interest when necessary. Anakin’s early childhood memories were populated with the sight and sound of Zephyrs cutting through the traffic of Mos Espa’s dirt streets. He’d even salvaged parts for this model of bike back in Watto’s shop.

With it resting on detached repulsorlift platforms, suspending the bike above the ground in simulation of what the bike’s own, internal repulsorlifts (which were currently in pieces on the work table) could do, it looked little like Earth technology. Anakin was proud of it to the extent a Jedi could allow themselves to be proud of their work.

“Yes,” Anakin paused in his work over the parts – while he had the pieces out he might as well be tweaking what could be or needed to be tweaked. “I need to prevent my younger self from accessing it. I don’t mind if he uses the bike with supervision, but he has yet to learn what ‘proper supervision’ means. As it stands, he would categorize himself as perfectly capable of overseeing his use of the vehicle. That is a mistake I do not wish him to make again.”
