Mmhm. [She shoots a sharp glare at Remy. She is NOT crazy, thank you VERY much.] He is. And he's been very-- understanding and kind with me.

[cajunspice]

[One day Remy will learn not to use that word around Wanda, she takes it far too personally even when not remotely related to her.

But she is crazy.

The balancing on the back two legs of the chair was fine, but would be far more interesting balanced only on one! A slight shift of his weight did so. Hopefully it won't break, or he would have to get Luke new ones.]

[thefinaljedi]

Well, I think he's like that with everyone. [Luke smiles.] He was pretty helpful when I had some issues a couple of summers ago with possession.

[maximoff_girl]

... possession? [Wanda wonders if he means something he owned, or being taken over by ghosts.]

[thefinaljedi]

It's...a bit of a long story, but actually Remy saw it somewhat recently.

[He taps his head.]

A few years back, at home? I had a bit of an accident with an artifact that led to my psyche sort of...taking in some guests. The Malnosso brought them out through shifts.

[maximoff_girl]

[Wanda shifts uncomfortably. Something about Luke's story resonates in her, and she doesn't like that it does. ] ... The shifts can be cruel. I'm-- sorry you had to go through something like that.

[thefinaljedi]

[That actually draws a huff of laughter from Luke.] It's alright. Having a chance to meet Grandmaster Sunrider was actually something of an honor.

[maximoff_girl]

Oh? I don't think I've met-- him? [Or maybe a her? No, he said "master," and that's usually a guy. ] ... It is nice, all the people I get to meet here. People are so-- friendly. Accepting.

[thefinaljedi]

Her. [Luke smiles faintly.] She doesn't live in the village, she's one of the personas stuck in my head.

[He holds up a hand, palm up.]

I could show you, if you'd like. She's easy enough to create a projection of.

[cajunspice]

Lovely femme, [Remy injected, not really helpful at all.] Very lovely. [Shame he had been stuck in a female form of himself at the time. And, you know, she was really Luke.]

[maximoff_girl]

Oooh! [A "her" after all! A lady 'grandmaster'. That was pretty awesome. Like Mystique!

But then-- stuck in his head. Wanda is a bit-- skittish about psychics. ]

... sure...

[thefinaljedi]

[Luke closed his eyes, and willed a small figure into being. A woman's frame with slender shoulders and a sea-green tunic, holding a blade of light. The image shimmers slightly as Luke is calling up some illusory powers of the Force that he's never quite mastered within the barrier, but it's there.]

Nomi Sunrider, one of the Jedi Order's wisest leaders. She's from nearly four thousand years before my time.

[The figure salutes Wanda before just taking a seat.]

[maximoff_girl]

She's-- very lovely. [And kind of small. But she assumes that's because of how her image is being generate, and less an accurate representation of her size.] And she's... a grandmaster? Your-- boss?

[thefinaljedi]

[Much less accurate, but a full sized projection might freak Wanda out.]

Well, in my time, I'm the current Grandmaster so I don't actually have a boss. But in her time, there were many, many thousands more Jedi, and her teachings are still a part of the Order today, so I've tried to learn what I can from her.

[cajunspice]

Maybe we should have 'nother Star Wars night, educate the girl. [Plus, you know, past!Remy got to do it, not him.]

[maximoff_girl]

Oh wow... [Colour Wanda impressed. Luke is the top of his world's totem pole, and here she is, getting to chat with him like he's just some normal guy. ] That's-- wow.


[She slides her eyes over to Remy] I don't like war...

[thefinaljedi]

It's not war. It's a series of films from your world that just happen to be about...well...me and my friends.

[maximoff_girl]

... Bizzare! ...I don't think I would like that. [Too invasive. Too close to psychic ability to be comfortable.]

[thefinaljedi]

Well that's up to you. I really don't mind, Wanda. Enough people here have seen them, and they're all set years in my past.

[maximoff_girl]

[Wanda shifts uncomfortably. She doesn't really watch movies, because she gets bogged down with all the things happening, and ends up having to ask questions the entire time. Knowing that it's actually someone's home movies...? That sounds awful.] If... you want.

[thefinaljedi]

[Luke shrugs and smiles placatingly, sensing her unease.] It's up to you entirely, Wanda. Just tell me sometime if you'd like to. They're not bad.

[Even if he is a total dweeb.]

Anyway. Would you like to meet a friend of mine, while you're here?

[maximoff_girl]

Sure. I mean-- yes, please. [The friend of a friend of a friend is her friend, or... something like that, at least.]

[thefinaljedi]

Artoo, why don't you come out?

[At the command, a small blue and white droid rolls out of the barn, twittering happily. Hello people, how are you?]

[maximoff_girl]

[Wanda's back straightens at the sight of the little droid, quickly looking to Remy, then Luke for confirmation. She's not exactly had good experiences with Robots back in her world, and the white and blue colouring reminds her of Apocalypse. ]
Ahh... this-- is your friend?

[thefinaljedi]

[Artoo twitters and rocks back and forth on his little legs happily.]

Yeah. Little guy's been with me a long, long time. He's an astromech droid...sort of like a mechanic for star-fighters, and he's also a navigation computer.
