[Action/Video] Arrival in Force

[jedi_sasster]

((Action))

"Well, this isn't the first time I woke up in a strange place..."

[Intrigue and confusion were on the Jedi's mind as he emerged from the Bay. The presence of other beings like himself momentarily convinced him he was on a Republic colonial world, but he knows better. Rifling through the little box, he read through the brochures, which gave him that one disturbing flashback when he was Hondo's "esteemed guest" for a time. But he got the idea. He was in a whole other universe entirely? It seemed difficult to believe, with thousands of worlds and as many civilizations and more, it's not out entirely out of the realm of possibility.

Obi-wan pocketed the amulet, currency and the phone, after reading they were important and discarded the brochures and box in the trash. He decided to go on a stroll around the city, tapping his personal comm to send a distress signal to any nearby Republic forces. While he waits for a response, he brought the phone back out.]

[The face of a kindly gentleman appears, with a charming smile to emphasize a friendly approach.]

"Greetings. I'm Obi-wan Kenobi, Jedi Knight and General of the Army of the Republic. Could anyone be so kind as to tell me about this system and the people here?"

[generalgrievous]

[Well, here's an unfriendly face and it's probably lucky that it's over the network and not yet in person.]

Kenobi. What are you doing here?

[He sounds quite affronted to see the Jedi.]

[Video]

[jedi_sasster]

[Does he even have any other face?]

"Grievous. Clearly being in the same predicament as you."

[Despite seeing the face of one of his long-time enemies, Obi-wan was going to be cordial with him since there's no reason to behave otherwise.]

[Video]

[generalgrievous]

[There's one under that mask but you don't want to see that. Either way, unfriendly.]

No. Your presence here only brings bad omens and trouble. The Jedi always bring trouble.

[And just as he was settling in...]

[yuuwish]

Jedi, huh? Seems like a lot of people from your universe were brought to this place lately.[One has to wonder why.

She offers a polite smile.] But welcome to Genessia all the same, Mister Kenobi.

[Video]

[jedi_sasster]

[And a polite one of his own in return. Her saying "his universe troubles him a little.]

"Thank you, my good lady. You say others from my neck of the galaxy are in the same position as Grevious and I?"

[Video]

[yuuwish]

I have good reasons to believe so, yes. At least, two more people I would say.

But unfortunately, it doesn't necessarily mean you are acquaintances, I'm afraid, for time and space are such fickle things.

[The view that greets Obi-Wan is kind of a curious one. There's an Imperial KX series droid in the screen but the symbol on his shoulder it's not the one of the Empire but the orange Starbird. None of these things might be familiar to him just yet, however.]

After being here for months I should be used to weird things like this happening and yet....[K-2SO tilts his head.] Greetings, Jedi Knight Obi-wan Kenobi. I've heard about you before. I'm K-2So, but Kaytoo is just fine.

[Image]

[jedi_sasster]

[Curious. It looks like a protocol droid, but a lot more...sleek?]

"Good to meet you, Kaytoo. Tell me, exactly how long have you been here?"

[Image]

[k2so]

[Taller too.]

Likewise, Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. I've been here 2 months and 28 days. It's also worth pointing out that while we are from the same world, I'm from a time ahead of yours.

I'm sorry but you are dead in my time already.

[kalmaleader]

"Jedi..."

[He's only heard that term once. From Grievous, of all...people.]

So you are one of those "Jedi"?

[Video]

[jedi_sasster]

[That is certainly no Zilo beast.]

"...Yes... And who might you be? If you don't mind my asking."

[Video]

[shagojyo]

Well, I can tell you I haven't heard of any 'Army of the Republic' being here.

[Video]

[jedi_sasster]

"That's a shame. You haven't heard of Jedi either?"

[... To 4th wall... or NOT to 4th wall]

WELCOME TO HELL, SLAPPY.

[This is an excellent introduction. Wade, master of tact, delicacy, ever empathetic.]

video

[jedi_sasster]

"Hell, is it?" [A beat.] "I thought this was Genessia."

[He can play too. Slappy was new, though. Haven't heard that one before.]

[Video]

[aurabble]

You're a knight? [Cue the awe. Jaune's so focused on talking to a knight that he forgets to answer his question.]

[Video]

[jedi_sasster]

[And he's happy to talk to aspiring youths.]

"Indeed I am. And who might you be?"

[Video]

[cadbane]

[The Duros' voice is heavy with dry sarcasm.]

Could this day just get any better?

[Video]

[jedi_sasster]

"That depends."

[A return sarcasm, but not nearly as dry. Two for one deal on headaches, it seems.]

[space_jesus]

[So. Grievous' unwitting prediction has come true, after a fashion - the Jedi are here, too. What he's sensed from the General leads him to believe that there's some serious False Dichotomy going on where these people came from, but who is he to blow against the wind? ...An inveterate meddler, that's who. But that can wait for later, if it becomes a problem.]

Welcome to Genessia, Sir Kenobi. We're currently uncertain if this world is the sole occupant of a pocket dimension or part of a larger domain, so I'm afraid none of us can really answer your implied question - I can tell you, however, that this place is outside my own home universe. And no - I don't mean 'galaxy' or 'star system'.

[jedi_sasster]

"Are you saying we may be in a parallel dimension...?"

[Yet the Force feels familiar here, hence the hesitation to fully believe the brochures.]

[Look.

Look.

He's very bored, there's nothing for him to do, he's literally just fucking about in his office as a holoform dicking about with code and trying to update his giant drone bird from about twelve miles away.

He needs something to do and everyone else here sucks at being informative.]

Re: text

[jedi_sasster]

"Thank you."

[Very. He'll keep this text and ask about some keywords he found later.]

[...and it's a second blast from the past. The novelty of this is quickly wearing off for Cassian, he'd rather have his team than more Generals he saw on the HoloNet as a little boy. He also shudders to think how displeased General Grievous is going to be. If they start up the Clone Wars here... what a mess.]

Greetings, General Kenobi. The people here are diverse, and hail from many different worlds. The local security forces also dislike it when people continue their wars from home here.

[Says the man who would be eager to start a war the moment an Imperial shows their face.]

video

[jedi_sasster]

"Greetings to you as well... I want to meet a local security force who would like a war here."

[Sarcasm, of course. He finds it curious this man would say this.]
