Eighth Transmission: A Jedi turns 30. [Action/Voice, Forward Dated to May 24th]

Action

[Today, Luke is fairly active and out and about. The sleeping troubles caused by the possessive ghost of Nomi Sunrider were getting him down, but for the time being the ancient Jedi in his head seemed content to let him have THIS day. He wakes up quite early, and instead of his usual exercises and meditation, he can instead be found at the item shop, riffling through a myriad of junk like he does periodically, checking for objects from home. Today, he's feeling particularly lucky, and...as luck would have it he finds something. A package of cards, with strange, circular cards covered in Corellian script. Pocketing them, he makes his way around to the bakery, picking up a few pastries, and even sits down in the tea house, thumbing through the cards with a happy look on his face.

Eventually he makes his way home, stopping to pick up food from a shop. When he gets home he takes great pains to clean the entire house, with the help of R2D2 and a trio of small remote droids that he'd finally finished constructing.]


[Voice: failed filter to Leia Organa Solo]

Leia, I know this transmission won't reach you, but it wouldn't feel right to not send it. Happy Birthday. Give my warmest regards to Han and the kids.

[Voice: sometime during the early afternoon]
Good afternoon everyone. I wanted to say thank you to everyone who's helped me cope with the troubles I've been having these past few weeks. They seem to have subsided for the moment.

Also, today is my thirtieth birthday. I'm not really sure what birthdays mean in your worlds, but in mine it is a day for family and friends to get together and have a meal. Most of my family is not here, but I would very much like it if people would stop by and share some sort of food with me. Anyone is welcome, as I'm always glad to make new acquaintances, and its considered auspicious to make friends on one's birthday. I'm happy to prepare food from my home, as well, should anyone be curious enough to try it.

If you are available, my door will be open to anyone today. Community House 5, Room 24. I'd very much like to have people visit.

[With that, he closes the feed, the seal of the New Republic broadcasting for a brief moment]

The whole world is a desert? How does anyone survive there?

[Seriously cannot fathom the idea of an entire desert planet even being habitable.]

It sounds peaceful. I've never been anywhere like that on my own planet.

With so few resources it's no wonder everything is so aggressive.

[And she wonders if that's why everyone goes to war in her own world, as she tells Luke.]

As far as I know, the Allies and the Soviets have always been at war. I'm not so sure about the Empire, where I come from. I think it was more peaceful once.

As far as I know, the Allies have always been at war with the Soviets. The Empire just took that as an opportunity.

[And whether she agrees with the cause or not she isn't sure.]

[Voice] Let's pretend my last post didn't repeat the post before it oh god

[personal profile] areyoumyfriend 2012-06-12 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm. Okay. The Soviet Union occupies a lot of the land to the north west of the Empire, while the Allies are a group of nations comprising of most of the West.

[Voice] Oh good :D

You're right. The Empire is Japan. But there are territories outside of the Japanese heartland, too.

I'd be interested to see how similar the Earth you've studied is to my own.

[Plenty of people talk about being from Earth, but a lot of things don't seem to add up with their own versions...]

Other people have told me the countries on their Earth are the same too. The only difference is that the name "Rising Sun" seems unheard of.
