[Anyone who's been to the Skywalkers' apartment will recognize their living room in the background. Luke looks tired but happier than he's been in a while.]

I'm hoping I can ask a favor of somebody. We're in the home stretch now and Kaylee could go into labor any day. She's been able to get rides from people here and there but as far as our own reliable transportation, all we have is the motorcycle, and that won't work for obvious reasons.

[It would be both scary and ridiculous. Seriously, try not to picture it.]

Would anyone be willing to lend us their vehicle for... maybe a few weeks tops? Something that would be safe for Kaylee, just so that we're not stuck begging someone for a ride to the hospital at three in the morning while Kaylee's having contractions. As you can probably imagine, that would be a disaster.

[He briefly presses his lips together in thought.]

Actually, come to think of it, would anybody be okay with being woken up in the middle of the night to be our backup ride or help in general if we need it? I'm trying to be prepared for all the possibilities and... it'd be nice to know who we can call on just in case.

infourbooks

[Filtered from Tenel Ka]

[In a highly shocking turn of events, Neville looks nervous.]

So. Uh. Convergence.

And the festival.

[He has the flower situation well under control. And nothing else.]

What are you supposed to... do, when you take a girl to a party like that? I've got dancing down, but that's about it...

sfoils

[ The speaker looks positively average: brown hair, brown eyes, pale skin. His voice is composed despite the message. ] I am Commander Wedge Antilles of Rogue Squadron. [ He shifts closer into view, wincing in pain. But as quickly as it comes, it goes. He settles his expression back into neutrality. ] I've crash landed here and I'd appreciate help fishing out my snubfighter. Or at least getting my cargo and astromech out of it.

I don't have much in the way of payment, but there's three bottles of my world's best whiskey in there. [ And Kettch, Wedge remembers absentmindedly. ] Oh, and some food rations. [ Wryly. ] Unless you like cardboard, I wouldn't recommend them.

Antilles out. [ And the transmission ends. ]

clay_and_truth

While I don't know many of you very well yet, and you probably have no reason to take me on my word when I say I'm skilled in the area, I'd still like to know if anyone without any skill in combout would be interested in instruction in self-defense, were I to offer it.

Or, for those already more practiced, interested in further honing your skills with melee weapons, provided they could become available- though I can make practice swords from wood easily enough.

I can also give lessons in basic archery, but it's never been my strongest skill. I'm far better at deflecting arrows than nocking them. [She smiles a little, as if at a private joke]

I won't turn away any students, regardless of whether you can pay or not. As people have pointed out to me, there are dangers here, and it would be irresponsible of me not to do everything I can to help- and one of the things I can do is to teach.

Also, does the city have a library, or something similar? I'd like to know of the philosophers and literature of this world.

kettchmeifyoucan

[No one who knows Wes will be terribly surprised to see that the background of the video feed shows a local bar. LIstening to angry drunks? Just plain drinking? That's the trick isn't it?

But he's grinning into the camera.]

So, any of you spacey types want to hear more about the satellites?

diplomaticsolutions

[One could be hard pressed to realize just what Padmé was thinking, although the signs are there. One's wedding day was supposed to be one of joy, even given the situation she and Anakin were in, and yet, she has no recollection of anything after their kiss. Waking up, her mind had turned over a variety of thoughts, from who and why and where. Yet, despite everything, her person was not harmed.

It is not the first time when life has tossed an obstacle in her path, and yet, she would have to admit that so far, this experience has been a first over all.]

Greetings.

[Her eyes are kind and hers is a soft voice, yet not weak. No, there is a strength behind it, and her expression, while not trusting, does hold an inquisitive air to it. Articulating herself is something that she has always been good at.]

Greetings to those who may hear this, whether fellow travelers caught in the same situation as myself, for I cannot assume I am the only one, or the inhabitants of this world. My name is Senator Padmé Amidala of Naboo.

[Information was always key, and so she progresses. She needs to understand better the situation she has found herself in.]

I fear neither the ship or the location are familiar to me as I know this is not one of the worlds I have visited. And so, I ask where I might find information about this planet, and perhaps to whom I should be addressing my disappointment as to the course of action that has been taken.

loveshishammer

[The view on the screen is not actually Thor's face, but rather mountainous trees and a canyon a little ways below, lit by the just-rising sun. Thor's voice, however, is loud and clear, if a bit shouty-- obviously, he's hovering, Mjolnir whirling above his head.]

Did anyone else see the meteor shower beyond the city, last night? I have found where it should have touched ground, or where some of it should have touched ground, and I see nothing, no damage... except these.

[The view takes a dive, as Thor swoops lower to hold his communicator over the ravine, flying a slow pass over it to record the cluster of separated pods, many of which appear to be empty.]

Was anyone aware of this collection of pods?

last_ofthe_jedi

((It's locked *from* Mal but that doesn't affect any of your characters because Mal is mine so this network post is basically open.))

[The stream opens up to Luke's broadly grinning face.]

Hey, it's about time I get to make this announcement. Kaylee and I wanted to confirm it and get the word out to those closest to us first before we went public.

Kerra, I hope you've got your own paintbrush, and anyone else who thinks painting a nursery sounds like fun can join us. Kaylee and I are expecting a baby!

She's almost four weeks along so the baby's barely bigger than a speck right now but it's definitely there and it's growing quickly. So far everything's going well and we can't wait for Skywalker number three.

[Luke already sounds like the kind of Proud Daddy(tm) who simply can't wait to send everyone an obnoxious number of pictures of his kid and take every opportunity to tell terrible "dad jokes". Needless to say, he's excited beyond reason and it looks like his face will break if he grins any harder.]

kettchmeifyoucan

[After another extensive but early night of skulking around bars, Wes has heard enough to bring it up to the rest of the ship people. And he doesn't look terribly happy with what he's heard.]

So, who else has been listening to the talk about these arrests? A lot of the local chatter... doesn't sound very good. If these arrests aren't on the up and up, the situations only going to get a lot worse.

[If they are arresting people for being against outside involvement it's likely to have the exact opposite effect of what they're going for.]

last_ofthe_jedi

Is anyone in town in need of maintenance or repair workers, especially for mechanical or computer-based systems? My droids are in need of jobs to keep them busy.

[Luke presses his lips together indignantly, as an indication that this has become a problem lately.]

One is an astromech, specializing in starship maintenance and navigation but he could probably do work on just about anything. The other might be tricky. He's a protocol droid and while he's capable of typical labor it's not his specialty. No one needs a translator by any chance, do they?

[Yeah, okay so it's a long shot but he thought he'd check. He's pretty desperate to get the droids ~~especially Threepio~~ out of the house without the guilt of begging someone to babysit them for him.]

Well, let me know. I'll have my comm on me all day.

last_ofthe_jedi

[Here's Luke's happy but travel-wearied face. Behind him is a small, dim view of the living room in the apartment that he and Kaylee share, for those who know what it looks like.]

Hey, everyone. Kaylee and I just got back into town.

We're pretty tired from the trip so we're probably going to go straight to bed but I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who volunteered their time and help with the wedding. Uh, Kaylee will probably give out the more specific thanks to individuals because she kept better track of that than I did. [Luke gives a little laugh at himself. Let's be honest, we all know he was too busy killing monsters.]

But you're all appreciated, more than you know.

Wes, you can bring the droids over whenever you like. Uh, though, preferably not in the middle of the night. [Because Luke knows that with Wes it's a good idea to specify.]

Uh, let's see. [He rubs the side of his face tiredly as he thinks.] I'll try to stay up for another hour or two so I can get caught up on anything that's happened these past two weeks. Feel free to get a hold of me if you need to.

Oh, and one last thing. [Luke smirks proudly.] The honeymoon went completely and totally uninterrupted.

last_ofthe_jedi

[Luke's smug, grinning face appears on the video feed. He is, in fact, on his honeymoon. But don't worry, he made sure he was fully clothed before beginning the feed. Oh, and he's making sure that Kaylee isn't in the background just in case she's still naked somewhere...]

Well, it's been five days and no incidents. I don't mean to jinx it, I'm just curious to see who's lost the bet so far.

((Locked to Wes))

Have the droids driven you crazy yet?

((Also, sorry for the animated icon. I know they bother some people but it was just too perfect to pass up. If you have the Adblock plugin you should be able to block it if it gets annoying.))

erranthero

[Kerra's voice pops up on the network on Monday, flippant as usual despite the circumstances. Yeah, she died. And yeah, it sucked, but she didn't feel it. Right now she's got a more burning question in mind. And a couple of messages to send.]

Whelp, I'm back.

Did we get them? I hope to hell that worked, because I'm not doing it again.

[Yeah, that's right, defense mechanism.]

Oh, I...could use some clothes, if anyone's near the ship. Not really up for meandering around Verdana naked.

[And then a private set of messages goes out.]

( Private )

professorwolf

[A few people get private texts tonight, not too late, but well after dark and moonrise.]

Kaidan:

If you aren't too busy or sleeping already, I would like to meet you at the ship tonight. I appear to have my full faculties inside the ship, but I don't want to be alone in case it wears off at any place or time in here.

Luke, Mulan, Tony, Indrani, Kerra, Shepard, and Sandman (though he's not sure he has Sandman's sent properly, given he's never spoken with him before):

Good evening. I'm back. Did any of us make it out alive, or should I be looking about here in the ship for the rest of us? Do we know what exactly happened in there? Is that thing destroyed?

[He's noticed the countdown is gone, but isn't sure whether he ought to connect it to their expedition or not.]

cursemymetalbody

[There is a slight scuffling sound as Threepio clumsily activates the communication device he found.]

Oh! I think I got it working.

Hello? Is anyone there? I'm terribly sorry, but it seems I was deactivated, and I don't seem to be on Bespin any more. The few computers I've found here all seem to speak the most peculiar dialect, and I'm having difficulty determining where I am, exactly.

((Also, for those who are interested and might have been nearby for some reason, here is an open log to Threepio waking up.))

bruiserprincess

[There are few things more dangerous than a bored twelve year old. Unfortunately, that's what Verdana has right now.]

Okay, this is getting bad. So I'm just gonna ask.

Does anyone have a lot of heavy stuff they need moved around? I am seriously that bored.

Or bad guys to beat up. If you need bad guys beaten up Princess Powerful is all over that! Bad guys would be way better.

loveshishammer

[A friendly godling pops up on the network Tuesday evening, looking a bit hopeful and expectant, both.]

So, my friends! I and some few others have visited a place the locals are calling dead, and we have brought back some items that... I fear I am not qualified to really examine properly. I can make nothing useful of them.

Would there be anyone among our number who could examine these things, here?

[Thor turns the camera on his communicator away from himself, and to the items he brought back: a mummified, dessicated deer corpse which is thankfully not looking like it's decaying further; a few bottles of dirt and dead leaves; and sketches and printed-out photos of the area. While showing these things to his audience, Thor keeps talking:]

I have been returning as often as I can, to track the growth of the deadness, but have other obligations and I can only visit once or twice a day. If there are any others who would have the time and inclination, I can give directions. And warnings. It is a ways away, and it may be dangerous.

Please contact me. I will have my communicator with me all evening.

theverymodel

[Mordin is sitting at his desk, with a variety of objects including slender fruit. For anyone familiar with reading salarian faces, he looks quite serious.]

Need for contraceptive review has become apparent. Several local options currently available. Significant improvement over previous situation.

[He holds up a packet]

Hormonal regulation now viable. Highly effective but not suited to short term encounters.

[And thus the condom and the fruit come out]

Barrier methods superior for casual contact. Prevent disease in addition to pregnancy. Can review proper application as needed.

Expect all to take reasonable precautions. Also have pamphlets available. Do not wish to hear of rhythm or withdrawal.

wrench_and_ruffles

[The setting in behind Kaylee is fairly recognizable as the area right outside the ship. Which isn't surprising, as the smudge of grease on her face suggests she's very recently been pretty deep in a generator or engine.]

Alright, I ain't the only one who's been feelin' right discombobulated when they go on or off the ship the past coupla weeks, am I? Thought I might be comin' down with somethin' at first, but that's the only time I get all dizzy like. Wouldn't be the weirdest thing the ship's ever done I guess...

didnotlosethewilltolive

[The video flickers to life after a moment, and a face will appear. She seems composed, but she's dressed plainly and her hair is down, if anyone knew her, they'd be surprised...for a number of reasons. She is fingering what appears to be a wooden trinket in her hands as she sits. Still inside the ship for the moment at least.

Her voice is composed, barely and there is a hint of steel behind her words. Okay more then a hint.]

Where are my children?

Whoever is in charge of this kidnapping, you did a poor job restraining me. I am willing to talk, but only if you tell me what has happened to my children.

....Palpatine, if you are behind this. Then I remind you that I am still a Senator, and unless you have destroyed them already I still have rights. You cannot detain me like this without informing the government of Naboo. I have done nothing wrong.
