[Day 5 - MM] Root Stew Anyone?

[Breela Po]

Breela does so, "I've kept it up to date but beyond the basic knowledge of keeping comms secure per Jed-IT. I'm not good with computers."

[Baesal Zyn]

She plugged the comms in her datapad and reached into her belt for some extra-fancy tools

''I've dealt with rakatan computing so I know at least one or two tricks.''

[Dapper Dog]

OOC: Average Mechanics or Computers.

[Baesal Zyn]

OOC: Average Mechanics or Computers.

checking breela's comms, computer, rakatan slicer: 3eA+2eP+2eD+1eB 2 successes

[Dapper Dog]

It's fine.

[Baesal Zyn]

She grinned

"Well, well...seems you did fly under the radar"

[Breela Po]

"I hope that is indeed the case." She smiles softly. "What would you like me to do?"

OOC: I have a few ideas. I've even got things set up perfectly to utilize Omandri if the character plays along. She can make a prized spectacle of herself at the Rave. Generally in spy movies people get approached not long afterwards. Alternately she can pull a last season of Burn Notice and 'fall/not fall' to the Darkside. At which point she gets picked up and recruited. Considering these guys are good though she'll need to be prepped as an asset regardless. And if you'd prefer we can do that on D6

[Breela Po]

"A few kids, a store owner, and Omandri Rist. Why?"

"Ohhhh, I forgot there's one more person who knows. Garth Wayne Ulgo, I told him when I was talking to Captain Alderaan." She added as an afterthought.

[Layne Hoshin]

Layne quietly sighed to herself when everyone started leaving in the manner they did. When had *she* become the one trying to keep the peace? She gave a glance over in the direction of her padawan, wondering what she was thinking about all this.

[Baesal Zyn]

''Mmmh. We might need to play subtle...'' She turned to Alysele

''Since you know one location...I must assume you have been investigating them?''

''Oh yeah Layne...take fake porno of you...how close does the fake Layne's body resemble yours?''

[Layne Hoshin]

Her hand met her face and she sighed again.

[Baesal Zyn]

Baesal looked serious ''No...I mean it.'' she raised her head from the computer and gave the comms back to Breela

''You have multiple unique scars from your adventures Layne...if they are present in the video then it means the one who made it either could see it or had access to a video of you where they were shown...since you always wear armor those occasions are limited thus we can try to narrow down possible culprits.''

she thought for a second

''Did'nt you go to the beach yesterday?''

[Layne Hoshin]

"We are not having this conversation," she said, her hand continuing its introduction with her face. "We are not having this conversation."

[Breela Po]

"Baesal, that's a little..." Breela hadn't seen the video in question, but the substance of it was easy enough to intuit. "... she doesn't need to answer that."

While Breela wasn't at all happy about the fact that she'd been snubbed, excluded, and likely dismissed by the Jedi. She wasn't going to let her injured pride, or her hurt feelings get in the way of supporting them.

"Right now can we just be there for each other?" She pleaded with Baesal. "Please... we need each other. This disunity has to end."

[Baesal Zyn]

Baesal looked confused

"I am sorry...I don't understand?"

[Breela Po]

We don't use the force, we let the force use us. That's what it means to be Jedi. But the Force doesn't ask after our feelings. That's what we are supposed to do. She looks at the empty seats, "Our feelings are valid. If they become clouded our connection, our vision of the force becomes clouded. We are conduits, not demigods - we need to be there for each other."

I don't ever want to see division with the ranks again. To watch Jedi kill Jedi, is the saddest thing I hope none of you ever see.

She sighs and turns to Layne, "If it's your desire to discontinue this line of inquiry Knight Hoshin I understand. Alderaan has not been kind to you or your Padawan. Just know that I am here for you whatever you need." For all
of you.

[Layne Hoshin]

"No, it's fine..." she shook her head. "It's fake alright? I haven't gone over it in... detail... or anything. It doesn't matter anyway. I already assume they're always watching and listening anyway, so doesn't really matter. They got footage of the cap's office, so if they can get in there, they can probably get in anywhere."

[Breela Po]

Breela's eyes become big as saucers as she puts two and two together, looking from Alysele to Layne and then Baesal with a, Yeah.... definitely don't want to continue talking about this... ever.

[Baesal Zyn]

''Mmmh'' she was curious ''Having faced everything you did I did not expect that obvious forgery I upset you so much Layne. My aim is not to upset you, only to find a way to use their transgression against them. My apologies.''

She turned her head to Breela

''Don't be disheartened.: the curfuffle we had...or are still having is a good thing actually. I am glad it could happen now.''

[Layne Hoshin]

"I'm not *that* upset," she said, "I just don't know why it matters. We already know they've got sophisticated psy-ops capabilities."
