[ The video turns on to Rey sitting in front of a display of brightly colored glass items, a forced smile on her face. She's never actually made a post of her own, before. Attention freaks her out. There's a five second span where the look on her face screams 'ABORT ABORT' but she pushes through it, exhaling. ]

Hello. For those of you who don't know me, my name is Rey. I've recently opened up a shop on Level 2 that deals in all different kinds of junk and recycled items, as well as electronic repair. I have a background in spaceship salvage, and my workers all have varying degrees of knowledge or interest in similar things.

If- If anyone is interested in stopping by, or have a request, feel free to check us out. The shop is called Spinebarrel and you can find it listed in your map application.

[ And awkward pause, before D-0 beeps at her in binary and nudges her foot with his nose. This is of course off-camera, but she looks down and smiles, before her eyes return to the video feed. ]

Thanks.

[ and it's off before she gets weird. ]

[ how very . . . anakin. ]

Is there a large demand for this?

[[The camera isn't perfectly centered so the background of a somewhat dimly it garage with a mess of machine parts on a workbench just visible in the side of the frame can be made out.]]

Any experience with hoverbikes? I've been working on building one from salvage from the junkyard I'm working at, but I've only ever repaired them before, so it's a bit slow going.

[ She is more like Anakin Skywalker than his own grandson is some days. ]

We've only been open a few weeks but we've gotten decent business. It's really just... something to keep busy with. And I like doing it.

[jedies]

It's certainly admirable. I don't know the first thing about running a business.

[ Rey brightens immediately at this, nodding her head. ]

I built my own speeder from parts back home, and I've repaired more than a few. I could definitely take a look!

[provenforce]

[ Rey lets out a small laugh, shaking her head. ]

I don't either.

[jedies]

Well, initiative never hurts.

It is not our way to turn profits, but perhaps I might need to bend that particular axiom.

[provenforce]

[ Rey has Feelings about the ways of the Jedi these days, but she doesn't say anything nodding her head. ]

If nothing else, it's something to do besides meditate all day.

[jedies]

. . . Meditate all day?

[provenforce]

Do Jedi not meditate a lot? It was like half of my training.

[ is she joking or is she serious who can tell. ]

[jedies]

[ the more he hears about what people think the jedi are, the sadder he feels. it's normal, considering how twisted the jedi became during the war, especially in the eyes of the people. but it is sad nonetheless. like a culture reduced to a summary. ]

We do, though mostly when we go through turbulent feelings. Emotions that threaten to overwhelm us.

[triggerhappytraitor]

I have it at my garage at [[address]]. The main unit's currently disassembled since it wasn't stabilizing correctly last test.

[video]

[spah]

Spinebarrel, huh? Pretty good name.

I run a munitions and repair shop 'round Level 3. Do a lot of my own inventin' in between. I'll have to come by.

[hyperjammer]

No kidding? I used to own a salvage yard myself, did a lot of repairs and maintenance on space vehicles while I was at it. Might come 'round for a chat.

[provenforce]

Oh, well. That would explain why my master had me meditate so often.

[ What is emotional control is it something she can eat ]

[provenforce]

I'll stop by as soon as possible! I need to get a few of my tools together but that shouldn't take... too long.

[jedies]

Perhaps. I cannot speak for another teachings. I certainly didn't employ meditation that much when I taught my padawan.

[video]

[provenforce]

[ Rey smiles at the compliment, nodding her head. ]

It's the name of a flower that blooms in the desert I grew up in.

[ Her smile grows at the mention of his own repair shop, and inventing. ]

Definitely! I'd love to know what you've been working on.

[triggerhappytraitor]

Take all the time you need. And if I don't near your knock, feel free to just come in.

[[OoC: Did you want to action-mode here? I also just put up an open for him that we could move to, whichever works best for you.]]

[provenforce]

[ She's got not a great track record with salvage yard owners so her expression is a little guarded, but the fact that he says he also did his own repairs is different enough from Unkar that she isn't immediately dismissive. ]

It's nice to meet others who are familiar with space-faring technology.

[hyperjammer]

[ If Duo takes note of her closed-off posture, he doesn't comment on it. His own expression remains openly cheerful and interested.

Look, if she wanted to comment out loud about her suspicions he would do nothing but sympathize with her. Shady practices are part of the business, though Duo always did his work with the betterment of his community in the back of his mind. ]

Likewise. I've noticed there's a pretty wide range of experiences with space in this town. Plenty of tech I never even dreamed of, right down to people who never even realized humans could break atmo.

[spah]

No kidding! That's an intense name for a flower.

Sure. I'm used to buildin' and drawin' up weapons for folks, for the most part. My latest project, though... I made a little dog. For the heck of it.

[provenforce]

It was probably just different. It was only the two of us, she was trying to help me learn to use meditation to reach out to Jedi that had passed into the Force.

[ This is not her favorite topic for a variety of reasons, she wrinkles her nose, before shaking her head. ]

Which is a lot harder than it sounds.

[provenforce]

All right, I'll see you soon!

[ we can move to your open that sounds good! ]

[provenforce]

It grows on a planet that doesn't have any natural water sources, it's a pretty intense flower.

[ Rey was very fond of the flowers.

The mention of a dog gets her attention, and she tilts her head. ]

Really? Like a droid but... a dog?
