Hello? Hello, is this thing on?

Huh, cool.

Anyway, uh. Hi, I'm Wrench, and this newbie has two questions. One, is there anything the Wicked Witch of the West might not have shared that might be important? [he means Karsa] And two, what's to stop a guy from using this piazza thing to share a few dozen dick jokes with the entire city?

[he probably won't actually do that. maybe. maybe not. someone please talk him out of it]

Hell yeah, man!

[he has conflicting feelings on the Jedi, because technically, they were the victims, too -- or, well, they were as far as he's aware, thanks, Palpatine -- but their business model also sucked, what with the no attachments thing and, yeah, throwing clone lives away. he can appreciate Slick's stance, though, his maybe-flawed knowledge of the Republic and the Jedi and the war aside

[fuck slavery. fuck someone else getting to decide whether or not you live or die. fuck senseless war]

[sergeant_slick]

[Fuck, it's nice to talk to people who actually get it.] The rest of my brothers worship the Jedi. I tried to show them the Jedi aren't special, that they don't deserve to be in control. [He sighs.] It didn't work out. I got caught, took a hard knock on the head, and then the next thing I remember clearly is here. [He waves a hand at the... everything around them.]

I don't know what happened, but I need to go back. The longer the war goes on, the more clones die. So if you're willing to help with that, we're on the same side.

[in_theworks]

Yeah, I got kind of lucky. Our war was mostly over. [a beat] And kind of on a much smaller scale.

[he makes a hand gesture to indicate that. his 'war' was against the big, evil mega-cooperation, and they won. sort of. Blume's too big to be taken down by the likes of him and his people but they beat Dusan, at least. they did what they set out to do. they cut off one of the heads of the hydra]

Not that I'm against getting home!

[very important clarification! (!_!) there's still work to do, at home!]

Soooo -- yeah.

[they're absolutely on the same side. (^_^)]

Heist movie brofist?

[and he'll just hold up a hand for that. don't leave him hanging, OG Rebel Bro]

[sergeant_slick]

As long as you're against slavery, that's all I care about. We're good.

[But he's. Not sure what to do with this fist.]

...You're doing an Earth thing again. What's a brofist?

[in_theworks]

Definitely against slavery, dude.

[a beat, and the mask flashes (o_o) (-_-)]

Oh, right -- sorry. [and another pause] Just make a fist, and then kinda ... [taking his hand back, he attempts to demonstrate by making a fist with his other hand, too, before tapping his knuckles together. (^_^) see?] Like that.

[and then he holds out his hand again]

[sergeant_slick]

Oh, yeah. I get it. [He gives the outstretched fist a light jab.

Well, kind of an enthusiastic jab. Brofist!]

We've got something like that, but it's different.

[in_theworks]

Okay, that's a little more forceful that I was expecting -- [(>_@)] -- but hey! Whatever you're into, man. [(^_^)] And at least we're kind of on the same page?

[at least he has something like a brofist, but different]
