Town meeting

WHO: Ezra and anyone who shows up or messages him directly
WHERE: The amphitheater or network
WHAT: Call for a town meeting and the meeting itself
WHEN: A couple of weeks after Coruscant event end
WARNINGS: None yet

After they all get back from the 'mission' to Coruscant, Ezra's of the opinion that the work on newly appointment Temple and calls and offers of help on the network are good signs. The right direction at least. Still, it seems to him that there's not a lot of momentum as a group to actually figuring anything out about this planet and their general situation.

He knows he's not the only one curious or bothered, so what gives?

After talking a little more with some of the other Temba residents, he puts up a written message on the network, that he's labored over longer than he'd care to admit to anyone:

I'm inviting everyone to a town get together or meeting, midday tomorrow at the amphitheater. Talking as a group, face to face, might be productive. I'll send out another message right before I head that way myself, so everyone knows when to show up.


He debates putting on his Jedi robes for the meeting, since that's the closest thing he has to formal wear, but decides the full get up might inadvertently send the wrong message. He's fully believes getting the community together to talk is a Jedi thing to do, but he's picked up on the ideas some co-residents have about authority and religion. He ends up wearing one of his new brightly colored sets of clothing, and throwing a brown cloak over it.

Then he goes to the stage area of the amphitheater and waits for people to show up. Once he's pretty sure most of the people who are coming are there, he gives them all a smile and says a few words.

"Thanks for coming, everyone. I'm not going to stay up here. I didn't ask you to come, so I could be 'in charge'. Or even because I have a list of things I want to accomplish, really. But...as long as we're all here together we are a community, whether we like it or not. So I thought, it might be a good idea to at least compare notes and talk about concerns. Things that might take more than a person or two working on it to get done. Goals.

Life here isn't bad, but I believe it could be better, if we work together. So let's talk about how we can do that. That's all I really wanted to say."

He gives them all one more smile and goes to pick a place to sit among the gathered.

"They don't know what I'm saying. And besides, it's only words. If I called you a finkledunk, it wouldn't mean anything to you. But for all you know that's like...a real bad insult back on Earth. Doesn't fucking matter, right? No comprendo, no problemo."

Richie does look around though to see if any of the younger kids are paying him any attention. Sure, they probably should learn better words than profanity, but kids came to his shows all the time and seemed fine.

Well. Except for the one kid Pennywise ate. But that was unrelated to swearing. Probably.

“I know many different insults in several languages, Richie. Doesn’t mean they should be learning them, because they don’t know what they mean.”

They may be Padme’s kids but he’s a protective dad figure okay? He wants the best for them and for people to respectful. Just because they were in an uncivilized situation didn’t mean everyone had to be uncivilized. Especially around young children! And not just the twins. There was James too and he is much closer to learning to talk.

Richie shrugs, not minding really either way. "Alright, alright. You got it, Beej. No naughty words around the tikes so that they grow up all wholesome. Leave it to Beaver's got nothing on the place we'll set them up with." He winks at Obi-Wan and pats his shoulder.
