[ The stream goes live with two men standing in front of the camera. They both look a little stiff in front of it, though the bearded man seems more relaxed and casual while the taller one seemed a little . . . frowny ]

Greetings, my name is Obi-Wan Kenobi. And this is my compatriot and partner, Anakin Skywalker. We hail from Coruscant and are part of the Jedi Order.

The Jedi are keepers of peace … most of the time.

[ Before Obi-Wan can say anything, Anakin looks over at him with a shrug. ]

I’m just saying.

[ Obi-Wan sighs. ]

Yes. Well, nevertheless. We would like to offer our services to the public. We’ve been trained in negotiation, trade and, yes, the art of a good fight. If you need support or bereft of someone to help you . . . then we’re happy to serve.

And blowing things up. We’re good at that too!

[ Obi-Wan looks skyward as if imploring a higher deity. ]

Yes. We’re good at that too.

You faced off against him, too, then?

[jedies]

Briefly, but yes.

[have_hat_will_travel]

... I wish I hadn't been one of those fighting on his side, but that power... Urgh.

I'll never look at angels the same way again.

[jedies]

Angels aren't common where I'm from but we're familiar.

[ he shakes his head. ]

And they're meant to be much nicer.

[have_hat_will_travel]

Yeah. Doesn't mean I want to be one, especially not one casually fighting to destroy people and bring pain. Not very Good acts.

[SOmething about the way she emphasizes Good... Huh.]

[jedies]

I've always found that good means in the service of a higher ideal instead of yourself.

At any rate, it was clear that none of the angels were in control.

[have_hat_will_travel]

... Which probably says something very different.

And... Higher ideals, huh? That's definitely something I'll need to think about...

[jedies]

[ a weird thing to say, but people are different here. ]

I'm sure you'll come to your own conclusions.

[have_hat_will_travel]

And I can only hope they're as good as they need to be.

Thank you - I didn't mean to take up this much of your time with my own issues.

[jedies]

[ obi-wan shakes his head warmly. ]

You certainly did not.

[have_hat_will_travel]

... A-anyways. There sadly is likely to be plenty of future conflicts, and... Well. Practice is sadly important, if you are interested in sparring in the future?

[jedies]

Of course. I am an excellent sparring partner.

[have_hat_will_travel]

I look forward to the opportunity, as time allows...
