21st Transmission [Video/Written/Action] (Forward Dated to March 17)

[Well it's about that time of year, when the weather begins to shift and it's beginning to get to the point where cultivating and preparing to for planting season is becoming a necessity. And to get all this started, Luke needs your help. He opens up the journal and smiles at the camera.]

Good afternoon Luceti,

For those of you that don't know me, my name is Luke Skywalker. For the last couple of years I've been tending to some of the farmlands outside the village, trying to build up emergency stores as well as bringing a bit of self-sufficiency to the enclosure. And as some of you may know, within the last year both Nami and Applejack have both departed, leaving the orchards near the farmland untended. I've been tending to them as best I can, but the vast majority of the help I had with the work has also returned home.

In the interest of better utilizing the space I'd like to request the help of anyone willing to volunteer their time with a bit of manual labor. I'm afraid it's simply not going to be possible to manage it all by myself, and any help would be greatly appreciated. It's beginning to near the planting season, after all. I'm happy to offer whatever services I can provide in exchange.

[There's a pause, and he seems to look somewhere off camera.]

On a related note, if there's anyone who knows anything about building irrigation systems, I'd appreciate any advice.

Thank you for your time, and may the Force be with you all.

[Shutting off the feed, he sends out two private messages.]


Written, Filtered to Loki
Loki, I know this is much less interesting than musical theater and cookies, but I was hoping I could get your help with a bit of magical work on the farm.



Written, Filtered to Trafalgar Law
Law, I figure we should probably revisit some of those supply caches and check on them. Possibly restock and take care of a few other things down that vein.

[Luke nods, smiling. He understands combining spirits with power from home, something he sometimes does.]

Of course, Mia. What's up?

[frost_jewel]

When we were helping Ion with his illness, you used your abilities to...to show me the problem in a way I had never experienced before.

[Something feels so unsettling about this question, but it's been on her mind for a very long time now.]

Can that be taught?

[thefinaljedi]

[Luke thinks back to the incident, and it takes him a moment to remember...but after a moment he scratches his chin.]

Delving? I...think I could? Your powers have a lot of similarities to mine, and if I couldn't teach you exactly how I do it, maybe I could help you adapt your own to a similar use.

[frost_jewel]

Well, if you are willing, then I would like to at least try.

[Ordinarily she wouldn't ask, it feels very bold on top of being unsettling, but- but in that moment, she could see so much, whether or not she understood all of it right away...]

[thefinaljedi]

Of course. We could try working on that next time you're at the clinic.

[He's more than happy to at least make the attempt. It might be beyond their ability to adapt...but then he's noticed a lot of supernatural abilities are compatible.]

[frost_jewel]

Thank you. I really appreciate it.

[Why didn't she expect him to say yes? She still doesn't, even though he already has.]

[thefinaljedi]

Don't thank me till we've worked out if it's compatible or not.

[He laughs, always willing to help.]

But I think it will be.
