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]

[he huffs out a breath of a laugh, too, the sound decidedly wry]

Literally or metaphorically? Because I could see that going either way.

Yeah, I figured. [did he mention he had conflicting feelings on the Jedi as a whole? because he totally does] Sucks, dude.

[turning the lightsaber off, finally, he passes it back to Anakin, hilt-first, like you would with a knife or a traditional sword]

[chosenfordarkness]

[ He offers a shrug, because what else does he do in this situation? Anakin takes the lightsaber back, clipping it back onto his belt. ]

Problems for another day.

[in_theworks]

Problems for another lifetime, man. [hey, look on the bright side! you're trapped literal realities away from the Jedi order and the Sith and all that bullshit! hooray!]

But anyway, uh -- thanks for letting me see your lightsaber.

[happier subject, y/n? (^_^)]

[chosenfordarkness]

[ Eyyyy, that's a great way to think about it except for the fact that Slick loves to remind him. ]

Sure. When else are you going to get the opportunity, right?

[in_theworks]

Oh, you know. Probably like never?

[so, seriously, Anakin. thank you]

Man, M would be so jealous.

[and while that's meant to be excited, still, in a sort of haha suck it, bestie kind of way it ends up reading as a little bittersweet. especially when the mask goes from the perpetual (^_^) it's been displaying through this conversation to (-_-) he's been here for all of a hot minute, but man, he misses Marcus]
