Jedi Lost

WHO: Obi-Wan Kenobi and YOU
WHERE: Throughout Tembra
WHAT: A new arrival!
WHEN: Beginning of December
WARNINGS: None - Will update if needed.

It was a strange experience. 

Obi-Wan Kenobi had recently moved into the little hut that he found abandoned near the Dune Sea on Tatooine. His Eopie had been munching on feed nearby while he fiddled with the broken down vaporator, trying to get it running again so that he would have a source of water. The twin suns beating down on him as he worked. It was miserable work, but it was necessary. The hood of his cloak pulled over his head to protect him from the suns and the blowing sand. 

He had just put in a new part and was hooking it up when things suddenly changed. He found himself waking up in a strange place, surrounded by old crumbling buildings covered in overgrowth. A far cry for the beak desert planet he had just been on. In alarm he tried to get his bearings, confusion overwhelming and threatening panic which is managed to quell by releasing his feelings into the Force. It was then that he caught sight of a glowing orb, finding himself drawn to it.

After getting the mental download, things were clearer, but he was no more happy for it. He shouldn't be here. This wasn't his place. His destiny and purpose was to be on that force forsaken planet, looking after a young boy who was no more than a baby. Not in this strange place called Agra 10. He had to get back, yet he didn't know the first clue on how to do so. If he could just find out where he was exactly, find a ship, something, he could get back to Luke.

Not trusting the device that he found himself with, he tucked it away in his robe and began exploring the dilapidated city. His hood still pulled over his head as he snuck about and rummaged around. His senses on the alert for anything that might be perceived as a threat. Any sudden movement likely resulting in him whirling around and taking the defensive with lightsaber in hand or a force push for anything that got too close. He was on edge, suspicious of everything, expecting to be attacked.

In his explorations he eventually comes upon the hangar, hope filling him as he sees the grounded ships. Finally, something that looked promising! The Jedi making a dash for them, and finding that he could only access one which happened to open up for him when he came near. It was the Twin Roses. With the utmost caution he carefully stepped onto the ship, hoping not to run into anyone, and making his way to the cockpit. 

((OOC: Feel free to run into him just about anywhere in the city! If you want to continue off a TDM thread I'm cool with that too!))

"W-well, it's... It's an understandable reaction." Jon shrugs, but then frowns. "But your weapon... That's a lightsaber, isn't it? It's been a while since we had one of those here..." Cal doesn't have his and Altair has left months ago, but Jon remembers the Sith Lord as well what he has learned from Cal's memories back when they were all trapped in the tunnels. And it leaves the Archivist with a very simple question.

"So... You are either Jedi or Sith." A very matter-of-factly observation rather than a question. He can't exactly trust himself not to accidentally compel a person he has just met.
beholding_archivist: (Go away please.)

Jon considers the response for a moment, then gives a slow nod. "Both use the Force and lightsabers and don't necessarily agree with one another." He won't be giving this man he knows hardly anything about any names just like that. That weapon is a dangerous one and he isn't going to risk endangering Cal.

Instead, he will send the Padawan a message after parting ways with Ben.

He raises a cautious brow at the other man. "The last Sith Lord we had here was peaceful."

Keeping it simple sometimes tends to be the most efficient way, so Jon isn't bothered by it.

"He is a Sith Lord, a member of the Sith Council in his time and galaxy and even the currently ruling Emperor. Though he also mentioned that his time is a different one from certain others from his galaxy." There is a small shrug from the Archivist. "His lightsaber has, indeed, been red." Unlike the one he has seen in Cal's memories.

Jon gestures again towards Obi-Wan's weapon. "Yours is blue, I vividly recall that." This is followed by a thoughtful pause. "I do not know how familiar you are with... What time you are from. And it may not be my place to tell you any of this. But there is a Padawan here. Who I can message and ask if he wishes to meet you."
beholding_archivist: (Could you burn that outside please?)

“Right. I will let him know, but the decision is up to him.” Jon answers with a little nod. Maybe Cal even knows Ben.

“Another thing I heard about is how your galaxy has seen some unpleasant warfare...” He muses while starting to type said message. “The Jedi were involved as well.”
beholding_archivist: (u sure.)

That reaction is a curious one and makes Jon look up from his phone as he sends the message, not sure when Cal May get around to read it.

“Where you involved in it?” This one is a question. One born of actual curiosity and carried by a hint of the Archivist’s compulsion. Maybe just about enough to give the faintest idea of a luring tingle at the back of the Jedi’s mind.
beholding_archivist: (Unimpressed)

[personal profile] beholding_archivist 2020-12-08 01:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Was. Past tense. So this man just might have survived that same war that left Cal so very rattled.

And yet Ben may be referring to another war altogether... Jon considers this possibility, then offers a rather particular piece of knowledge, his tone a casual prod.

"I have met one of the clone troopers."
beholding_archivist: (So you keep saying...)

[personal profile] beholding_archivist 2020-12-08 06:50 pm (UTC)(link)
That reaction speaks volumes to Jon. Especially with that faint flare of anxiety this man appears to be very good in keeping at bay. So... Same war. The war Echo is still fighting in and that haunts Cal.

He sighs. "He is. And I ask you not to raise your weapon at him. We're trying to figure out what caused the... Reaction. It hasn't happened yet in his time."

The phone in his hand gives a brief vibration, drawing Jon's attention to it, and he frowns. "....right. Cal agrees to meet with you though he doesn't recognize your name. Merely a... Jedi Master by the name Obi-Wan Kenobi." Jon pauses, casting a look over at Ben before nodding and starting a response. "I will let him know where we met. And I suppose it's alright now for me to share his name."
beholding_archivist: (Trying hard to ignore this mess)

“Kestis. Cal Kestis. He has a little droid with him.” Jon says, then lets his eyes drop. “For all it’s worth? I’m sorry. For what happened in your galaxy. I’m not familiar with all the details, but.... It’s been dreadful for those involved.”

And if he were entirely honest, then Jon would like to learn more about it. About everything. Though that may be a bad idea.
beholding_archivist: (Mighty Frown)

[personal profile] beholding_archivist 2020-12-09 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
The Archivist gives a slow shake of his head. “No. I understand. And I won’t press.” The last bit isn’t easily said.

“I, ah... If there is anything else I can help you with, any questions I can try answering...?” It’s less a question and more an offer.
beholding_archivist: (Bleh)

[personal profile] beholding_archivist 2020-12-09 12:28 pm (UTC)(link)
"Aight." A nod and Jon motions with the hand still holding his tape recorder over his shoulder. "I'll be heading back to the old library and- I suppose good luck?"

Though he will keep his senses sharp for any sudden spikes of fear. Just in case.
beholding_archivist: (Nope.avi)

[personal profile] beholding_archivist 2020-12-10 01:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Jon pauses mid-turn to head back towards said library, wincing ever so slightly at that tone he recognizes just too much by now.

A tone he is bound to disappoint.

"There.... Used to be. The building is at the town center, but- I suppose I must warn you that it currently contains a total of two books." A remarkable collection.

And this is exactly the reason why Jon doesn't really want to refer to it as a library any longer... People... Get their hopes up?
