Hey Luke! [ so bright. ] Just wanted to let you know I've volunteered for the Gamma team for Mission Oros. Sounds like it'll be interesting, if nothing else.

[ because hanging out on this ship has been...boring. it's time to get back in the action. ]

Re: voice;

[taggingwomprats]

You are? That's great!

[ Kind of. Better than editing jokes, anyway. ]

I'll probably be tagging along, too.

[sensive]

You should. Might as well be useful while we're here.

[ while they're here. because it's temporary, obviously. ]

Seems like the weather will be nicer than Hoth, too.

[ though she can't really complain about the base, given she played a role in picking its location. it served its purpose, undoubtedly. ]

[taggingwomprats]

Just about anything has to be nicer than Hoth. Even Tatooine.

[ He's a desert boy. The cold really didn't agree with him, even if he managed to deal with it. ]

What do you think they're after, anyway? I heard something about a temple.

[sensive]

And a relic. I think my team's meant to act diplomatically, but — they're definitely taking something from the planet.

[ which sounds less than peaceful, really. ]

[taggingwomprats]

What for?

[ Beause that's important. Why do they want it? Is it a weapon? Does it have information? ]

Or are they just keeping us in the dark?

[sensive]

I don't know. My team's meant to report back on one of the species, not go looting.

[ okay, so maybe she has Strong Opinions on this topic ]

Might just be selective dissemation of information to protect the integrity of the missions. [ might. ]

[taggingwomprats]

Maybe. But knowing what we're supposed to be getting makes the mission easier.

[ Luke frowns. ]

Not that we're really involved in stealing whatever it is. What kind of information do they want about the locals?

[sensive]

I suppose. [ as always, leia is unconvinced. ] Seems like a blanket everything, as far as I can tell. I'd assume they have a special interest in interactions with between species after the dissolution of the peace treaty.

[taggingwomprats]

It all seems... strange.

[ Luke sounds a touch distracted. ]

Really wish they'd tell us more about what this is all about.

[sensive]

[ strange, indeed. ]

We'll have to learn on the job. [ a tiny smile. ] Good thing we improvise well.

[ okay maybe "get in the garbage chute" isn't the #1 improvisation of all time but ]

[taggingwomprats]

I'm pretty sure that I've just been improvising since Tatooine.

[ Luke, no. ]

[sensive]

I'd call what you've a done a little more than improvising, flyboy. [ a beat. ] Improvising with style, maybe.

[taggingwomprats]

Improvising with style. You think so?

[ Don't stroke his ego, Leia. He's still a fighter jock. ]

[sensive]

[ look, she'll only indulge him a little. ]

If I have to say it twice, I'll take it back.

[taggingwomprats]

[ But he's so cute when he's got a bit of an ego. ]

Alright, alright. Glad you've got my back.

Luke, hey. It's Jim Kirk. Things are kind of a mess right now so I just wanted to know if you're doing alright. Are you on the Eluvio or did you get stuck elsewhere?

[taggingwomprats]

Jim! Yeah, I'm OK! Things are kinda hectic over her on the main ship, but I'm doing OK.

They don't have manual overrides on any of their doors, so I'm having to jury rig my way through half the ship just to get places.

[winscenario]

Tell me about it. Auxiliary power got most doors working again but I'm still getting stuck in random rooms every so often.

Glad you've got more people around, at least. It's just two of us up here and it's eerily quiet.

Anyone have any idea what happened yet?

[taggingwomprats]

Stars, that sounds creepy. All alone on a giant star cruiser sounds like it'd be awful.

And no one is sure yet. I think there was an explosion down on the hangar deck. I haven't had a chance to investigate much further, though.

[winscenario]

Could be worse, I guess. At least I'm used to this ship. It's weird seeing her this empty, but it's been this way since we got here, so I guess we're more used to it now.

Yeah, I heard a couple ships blew up too, just before the power went out. I was asleep at the time though, so I didn't see anything.

[taggingwomprats]

Yeah. I just hope my X-Wing is OK.

[winscenario]

It's in the hangar, right? You can't get there right now?

[taggingwomprats]

I've been running around trying to get systems up and running again. I haven't had a chance to look!

[winscenario]

You should. Check out the hangar, in the meantime. You never know what you might find.

[ Not that Jim's holding his breath. He's sure if there was something to find there, someone else would have by now. ]

[taggingwomprats]

Think I'm going to have to. This whole place is a mess.

[winscenario]

Unsurprisingly. There's a lot more people staying over there. Good news is at least you're not alone.

Anyway, can you let me know if anything strange happens there? Or if they make any progress with getting power back online. I feel like I'm in the dark over here, in more ways than just one.

[taggingwomprats]

Will do. You stay safe over there, yeah?

[winscenario]

I always do. [ lmao please ] And likewise. Talk to you soon, I hope.

[taggingwomprats]

Here's hoping!
