"Perhaps, and perhaps I came to the right one."

"It is no small task you set yourself, if you aim to change things here."

Permalink

"Good. I'm not one for small ambitions."

Permalink

Soft huff of laughter.

"-Do you want to sit?"

Permalink

She nods and sits beside the Keres with a smile. (Though she doesn't seem to be actually affecting the seat at all.) "Thank you."

Permalink

"Where do you come from, beyond the Mid and Outer Rim, then?"

Permalink

...Hum.

"I was born into slavery on the planet Tatooine. It's a miserable place, even without that. The entire planet is a barely inhabitable desert. A group of people with powers similar to mine - the Jedi - freed me, and I joined them after. But - we stayed on the move, and..."

"...The Jedi haven't existed for decades, anyways."

"If I've had a place to be from, it's been - only briefly."

"Sounds- lonely."

Permalink

"...It has been. And - "

"Most people can't perceive me, anymore."

Permalink

"I'd guessed that much, the way the bus isn't rioting."

Permalink

Smile. "I could pretty easily stop them from noticing either of us, even if I was usually visible."

Permalink

"Huh. Neat trick."

Permalink

"It gets complicated if there's a large crowd, they already know we're here, there's indirect or automated observation, or they have reason to be looking closely - "

"But that would've mattered a lot more when I was a teenager, and I've been doing this a long time."

Permalink

"How long?"

Permalink

"I'm over fifty, and I've been connected to the Force my entire life."

Permalink

"That is a long time."

Permalink

"Experience isn't the only thing that matters with the Force, though."

Permalink

"What else does?"

Permalink

"Emotional state, focus, mental strength, desire..."

Permalink

Hum.

"What other abilities do you have?"

Permalink

"I can move objects - and whether a bunch of atoms form a discrete object or not is a matter of perspective, which matters mostly to how fine my control is. I can heal others. I can see the future, the past, far locations, and things that didn't happen but could have - though that's difficult to trigger on purpose outside of the immediate. Relatedly, I can tell if I'm in danger, and I can figure out the best path to accomplish most goals. I can sense my environment and the minds of others, and I can influence those minds. Anything other than small nudges is difficult, though. I can communicate directly mind to mind with someone, and I can share and view memories - which is harder but not impossible if someone is resisting me. I also react very quickly."

"In life, I could enhance my body, and I had a laser sword." Her lips quirk a bit. "I no longer run on biology, though, which does make me likely immune to attacks that aren't through the Force."

"More mundanely, I'm a talented pilot and mechanic. I have extensive generalist knowledge in a lot of fields - war, philosophy, politics, history, various sciences..."

Permalink

"Pretty wide spread, that."

Permalink

"Not an uncommon one for trained Force users, though, especially once we get a bit of real-world experience with it."

Permalink

Shrug. "If you say so."

Permalink

"You know... I think it's all something you could learn to do, too."
