You won't find me looking back
WHO: Kaz, Ezra, Tony
WHERE: Near a Hangar Bay on Coruscant
WHAT: A holocron is seen as a gag since it refers to Agra-10, which obviously doesn't exist. But Kaz is still buying it
WHEN: During the Coruscant event
WARNINGS: None anticipated, TBD
The merchant Kaz was meeting with was a ferrety little man. Like he literally looked like a ferret with a tool belt and some sort of hoodlike hat. It was through a couple of different people Kaz had met that he had been told that Agra-10 was only mentioned once, supposedly in this 'Holocron thing. He had been warned that he wouldn't be able to open it, but since Kaz has been on Coruscant for a few days now he had already heard of the Jedi. And if the one he had spoken to was any indication, they were pretty similar to the grisha where he was from. Which is to say he already knew he'd need to cajole or manipulate a Jedi into opening it.
"Is just a glowing brick." The ferrety man insisted.
"All the same." replied Kaz in his rocksalt rasp.
The ferrety man squinted at Kaz, sensing a possible way to get more money.
"Is junk. But you want junk? Then 50."
Kaz tilted his head to one side. Then while saying nothing he used his cane as a hook and took hold of a sliding hoist. If grabbed from the end with the handles it was possible to slide freight weighing hundreds of pounds into spacecraft. At the moment the hoist slams the ferrety man's tale. The ferrety man squeals in pain and immediately drops the Holocron to grab his trapped tale.
"You're going to want to rethink that." Kaz says, still completely calm.
"4-40!" The ferrety man says quickly. Apparently, Kaz leaned on the hoist because the ferrety man squeals again.
"30! Take for 30!
Kaz says nothing, just unhooks his cane from the hoist's handles and puts it back at his side. The ferrety man whimpers and removes his injured tale to cradle it. Kaz takes one step forward and removes a small bag from the inner pocket of his suit jacket and tosses it to the ground. It clinks with (stolen) credits. He picks up the fallen Holocron. He would need to find a way to disguise it as soon as possible.
"I would say it's been a pleasure doing business with you, but I'm not that good of a liar."

He eyes Tony. "I'll be honest; I'm not sure we can find out where it came from. Holocrons last a long time; that recording could be centuries old. We don't have great leads. A way to carry a non-Agrii network message is probably about the right level of task for birds."

"Don't ever touch me."
He didn't look at Tony or raise his voice, but he didn't have to. The warning was there in the dark menace of his tone. In Kettterdam it was already understood that patting Kaz Brekker on the back was a good way to lose a finger.
"I agree, Ezra. It will mean needing to get used to handwriting messages, and reminding people to burn them when they've finished reading them."

Slower, eye still lingering on Kaz for a beat, Tony started again, "If the thing is genuine and a billion years old, we'd lose the trail, sure, but then we could make that educated guess. If it isn't, which is why we're checking, then someone deliberately got it into Mr. Brekker's delicate little hands, and we haven't been here that long. That machine can only have so many parts."
