I'm enjoying learning about an entirely new world, untouched by the Republic or the war. It's an interesting feeling, the surprises.

I particularly like jeans. Nice invention.

[Leia (Legends)]

I'm piecing some things together. I'm planning on watching these holovids soon. How are you?

	I couldn't get used to them. Have you tried leggings? They allow for a greater range of movement. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Next bit of money I manage to earn, they are going on the list. It's important to blend in with the locals, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I try to, but my montrals stand out. I tend to dress a little more "punk rock" so they think I'm just a freak. But they're very soft and go with a wide assortment of shirts and skirts. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

This planet is apparently all human. I was looking into it, and they haven't even reached interplanetary travel. Shouldn't be too hard to get a planetary pilot's license, I think. I'm sorry they haven't been exposed to other species.

The heat here is significant. I'm definitely making comfort a priority. But I'd like to find some places to exercise or spar as well. I haven't found much.

	No, they haven't, and it's a continued source of unhappiness for many of us here. You could talk to Poe Dameron. He got his pilot's license here. I work part time at Howlett's Gym. We have a special sparring area that's suited for people with abnormal abilities. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Dameron, alright. It's good to have something to start with. Should I just reach out to him on this device? Been some time since I've been called abnormal. And now I'm plagued with curiosity to see who else fits the description. Is it always open? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	snipps 2018-09-10 05:31 pm UTC (link)
	You could. You could also use their information source Google. Maybe look up how to do it, and then get some personal perspective with Poe? Unfortunately, by my age, the Jedi are almost extinct. The Jedi and Force users are something of an abnormality the Empire would like to get rid of. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'm certainly spending an inordinate amount of time on this thing. A little while longer won't hurt. From my preliminary look, nearly all vehicles here are purely mechanical with combustion engines. I can handle that.

I discovered that, the first day I was here. It's hard to fathom, that many Jedi gone. But trying to eliminate Force users is simply impossible. The Force cannot be eliminated, no more than one can ever predict where a new sensitive will be born. Over a millennia, we've never been able to accurately say who will feel it.

	They are, regretfully, still stuck on fossil fuels. Another unfortunate event: his Inquisitors, hunting down anyone who is Force sensitive. Most people don't speak up or they're taken away very young, as the Jedi were. This was happening during the Clone Wars too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They will progress. But yes, it's limiting. Were you a pilot? The Clone Wars? Is that the same war? We had clones fighting with us against the Separatists. I'm [...] reluctant to learn more. But it's not my way to ignore the reality. Force users persecuted. And the Order couldn't stop this? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I had my own ship, and I'm good with mechanics. I wouldn't call myself an ace pilot or anything, but I did know how to fly.

I regret to be the one to tell you this, but you will find out since there are people from various time periods from our galaxy. The Order was gone. That's how the Clone Wars ended. Palpatine put chips in all the clones's heads so that when he was ready, they would turn on their Jedi generals and kill them. The clones had no idea what they were doing, and the Jedi were all wiped out. Very few of them survived.

	Jeans make my butt look great. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	That's how they market them, certainly. They know their product. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Have you seen how many different types they had? It's crazy how much variety they have. Look into APPLE BOTTOM jeans. Ha. Designs for your butt! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The people on this planet are certainly obsessed with the way their asses look in clothing. A whole industry had sprung up. But I suppose you work with what you have. I really need to find a job. Some of these prices are significant. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aphra 2018-09-10 05:32 pm UTC (link)
	They don't shapeshift or have tails or anything, and if they do have tails, they try to cut them off. It's weird. Luckily, your housing is paid for! So is your utilities. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	knight_siri 2018-09-11 03:08 am UTC (link)
	They cut them off? I assume it's a cultural norm. Yes, and that was odd. Truthfully, I hadn't been back to my Coruscant quarters in quite some time. I almost didn't believe them when they said it belonged to me. But my clothes were still there, at least. I miss the view of the planet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aphra 2018-09-11 06:41 pm UTC (link)
	A tail's not considered "normal" for a human being. They make fun of each other for being too different. I usually stay as far away from Coruscant as I can. Too many politicians and you know, Imperial presence. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Are there any questions you have I can help you with? Before you watch the films, that is. They can be [...] jarring. And I'm fine. School's started up again, and I teach at the EPS, so it's been a busy last week. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I've read a little. I'm guessing there will be no substitute for simply watching and learning the history all at once. [...] Do you remember Obi-Wan well? I do need to find a job. I've been a Jedi my whole life, so there isn't much I have in way of job history other than that, but even we have done hard work here and there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Siri/Leia worshipfullness 2018-09-11 04:56 pm UTC (link)
	I suppose not. [...] No, I - besides stories that my father told me, I didn't know Obi-Wan. At least, not outside of when he was here in Tumbleweed. There are lots of options though, so I'm sure you'll be able to find something. (Reply to this) (Parent)
