4th Transmission, again with the questions... [Video]

[thefinaljedi]

Good morning, anyone who may be listening in at this hour. I have a few questions, for anyone who may or may not be so inclined to answer them.

Firstly, does anyone remember anything that happened last weekend at all? I have spent the last few days meditating, and it seems worrisome that several days have just blanked out of my mind. I feel as though something important happened, but I can't remember.

Secondly, does anyone around here know anything about acquiring power supplies for machinery? I've broached the topic with a few others, but I would like to ask everyone as a whole. I'm attempting to reconstruct some of the technology from my world and would need a few small odds and ends to do so.

Finally, I'm told by some people in the village that there is a series of popular movies...that apparently are about me and the other members of the Rebel Alliance. I...find myself curious, and would very much like to see these for myself. I will admit the thought unnerves me a little, but I'd like to know if anyone has a copy they would be willing to share.

[rashness]

You got it- [And he's got his face all over, smug as shit as this basic work] I'm legit now...

[Action]

[thefinaljedi]

Thats great! Could you make me some lunch? I'll leave it to you to decide what.

[Action]

[rashness]

My pick-? You sure? Don't wanna order something - I can make a ton of stuff.

[...But he can do just. Anything. HMMM what would he make this older guy :|a]

[Action]

[thefinaljedi]

Surprise me, my friend. Sometimes variety is nice!

[Action]

[rashness]

Haaah... [Tail wag, consider. Okay, he'll make some... let's just go with some udon then]

[Action]

[thefinaljedi]

[Luke waits patiently, he'll be happy with just about anything not made of Gundark or Bantha]

[Action]

[rashness]

[Well then, let's roll out some Kake Udon. Good times, that. And once it's done! A solute before he pushing the bowl over towards the man. Or well, more comes out now]

[Action]

[thefinaljedi]

[Luke tries the noodles, taking a few bites, still fumbling with chopsticks a bit, but smiles after a moment.]

Whats this called, Rin? It's really great!

[Action]

[rashness]

Oh that? It's just udon, nothing much.

[Action]

[thefinaljedi]

Its not something I've ever tried before. Is it from Japan, in your world?

[Action]

[rashness]

That's right, yeah. How'd you know?

[Action]

[thefinaljedi]

You did say that was where you were from. Just a lucky guess

[Action]

[rashness]

That's a pretty good guess! But then, I guess you're like some sort of guru.

[Action]

[thefinaljedi]

[Guru? Kid, you don't know the half of it!]

Nah, I'm just an old hand at this sort of stuff. Probably comes from my uncle.

[Action]

[rashness]

If you say so, dude. Anyway, yeah - udon.

[Action]

[thefinaljedi]

Its pretty good. Maybe you can help me learn to make it sometime?

Anyway, when's your shift done?

[Action]

[rashness]

Pretty much whenever. I'll go when you're done.

[Action]

[thefinaljedi]

[Luke finishes his noodles in quite a hurry. He's anxious to help Rin with his problem]

Alright. Lets get moving. This time of day, the playground should be pretty deserted.

[Action]

[rashness]

[Wow fast. Well then, he'll just get his sword, ditch the apron, and leap back over to get ready to go]

Alright, I'm following you!

[Action]

[thefinaljedi]

[Luke leads the way out to the playground, setting down a small satchel and sitting down, crosslegged in the grass. Its chilly, but not terribly cold, and he motions for Rin to do the same thing]

Sit. Join me.

[Action]

[rashness]

[Uh, okay. He'll go and brush the tail a bit, and takes a seat. Man it's not as cold as it could be, but] Alright.

[Action]

[thefinaljedi]

[Luke nods, closing his eyes and placing his hands on his knees, palms down]

Do as I do. Close your eyes, and put your palms on your knee. Keep your back straight, and start to inhale slowly. Keep your mind as clear as you can. Think of a single point. A star, or something usually helps me focus. Focus on that single point of light, and just allow yourself to breath.

[Action]

[rashness]

[Okay? Okay. He closes his eyes, emulating the position which Luke says to emulate and then... focus? Okay what should he focus on? Not a star, he'll go with- ... his dad? No, he shakes his head. Boobs? ...heeeeeh no ! Wait lustful thoughts probably aren't good. Sukiyaki! That just makes him hungry. He shakes his head again, still trying to come up with something to focus on. A single point?

Wait. A point! So...

...Uh.

Maybe the mo- no that's dumb. Let's just try the star thing. Breathe.]

[Action]

[thefinaljedi]

[Luke can feel the young man's difficulty. He's clearly never done something quite like this before. Though he supposes that isn't abnormal, as Rin doesn't seem to be quite that in touch with his inner self]

Try the star. Just a single point of light in a canvas of dark. Feel that point. Breath deeply. And if it helps, try and follow what I am saying.

There is no emotion, there is peace.

There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.

There is no passion, there is serenity.

[Luke intentionally leaves out the final line of the Old Jedi Code, not seeming applicable to Rin]

Focus. Don't let your mind wander.

[Action]

[rashness]

[No emotion... peace? But emotions are important! ..Maybe this is some sort of guru thing though, it sounds like something the Kyoto boys would do. So he breathes in and out, trying to focus on that stare and think about what Luke says only instead of all the other stuff.

Ignorance... knowledge. But he's dumb--- FOCUS.

Passion... serenity. What does- FOCUS.

Okay. Breathing in and out. trying to focus]
