+1 babby Solo

[two_jedi_sticks]

Another newbie here! I go by fakealchemist and I am bringing in one Jaina Solo from Star Wars to further muck up the cast timeline and Skywalker family drama and also to maybe get Luke's skill as a teacher judged by all the other Jedi with more organized training and. y'know. actual understanding of the Jedi tradition.

Jaina's being taken from the end of Young Jedi Knights, from the old EU/"Legends" continuity, and is basically here to climb inside all of your ship's engines to see how they work. If she gets the opportunity to get into trouble there is a 110% chance she will go for it, but because she's from before the Vong war at least she won't be grumpy while she does it. Also since her augment is engineering, anyone who offers to retrain her in piloting will probably have her on their heels with stars in her eyes.

I'm excited and looking forward to playing with everyone! Easy ways to get in touch with me are PMing this journal or prodding me on plurk.

Hi there! Gotta love old EU shenanigans! I'm Froda and I've got Hera here from Rebels, who will be baffled at the continuing Skywalker/Solo drama, but super willing to help Jaina with her piloting needs!

[two_jedi_sticks]

Hahaha, yes. It sounds like someone needs to start handing out popcorn. And also Jaina will definitely take her up on that, it sounds like it'd be great fun.

From one newbie to another, hi! I'm Haunt, playing Kitty Pryde from a questionable slice of reality. I don't know Jaina, but Star Wars is <3.

[two_jedi_sticks]

Questionable slices of reality are the best slices. I likewise have to admit only a passing familiarity with Kitty's canon, but from what little I know, I'd love to have her come pester Kitty at some point.

[passingthrough]

Pestering is always very welcome!

Welcome to the game! I saw the app and I was like YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, this is great tbh.

I'm Saffy and I play Varric, Dezel (Zestiria) and Belthazar (Warcraft OC). Let me know if you need anything or have any questions!

(also, the tiniest sidenote: in order to pilot a ship [not a shuttle] she will need the pilot augment. junk won't make sense to her otherwise, that's just how the augments work. she can always switch augments later!)

[two_jedi_sticks]

Ahh, thank you! I was admittedly nervous about apping because this will be my first time in a sizeable SW cast.

(Understandable - I figured she would just get stuck training. I just can't see her not trying to have her cake and eat it, too.)

[merchantprince]

I'm sure you'll be fine ♥ Our SW cast is wonderful, top to bottom.

(That sounds fine! She's welcome to learn bits and pieces.)

[discessum]

Ahhhh my childhood. I love Jaina and this whole part of the EU so I'm really excited to see one here. Welcome!

[two_jedi_sticks]

Thank you! Hopefully I won't ruin anyone's childhood -- or if I do, hopefully it is ruined in a good way.

Welcome to the game! I'm Gore, and I play two characters here: Kurt Wagner / Nightcrawler from X-Men Evolution and Steven Universe from... well, Steven Universe. I haven't actually read the relevant stories but I've at least read about them and know a fair number of the basics! I'm excited to have her here and hope you enjoy your stay!

[two_jedi_sticks]

All I can say is I can't tell which would be funnier, cr with the fuzzy mutant or cr with the half-spacerock. She's seen personal hologram devices anD would love to poke at the tech, and she's got an appreciation for dumb jokes. Which is a roundabout way of saying this game looks like it is all kinds of awesome I can't wait.

[digthefuzz]

Hahaha excellent, well both is good! I am glad that you're looking forward to things, and both lines of CR can easily be a thing!

[sandhate]

Oh god

Hi I'm Sam. I play Anakin Skywalker who would be delighted to meet her/retrain her as a pilot so long as she doesn't idk hate him like her mom does here. Anyway welcome to the game!!

[two_jedi_sticks]

Meeting grandpa will be weird and awkward but she's probably actually going to walk the line between "oh shit Vader" and "but Uncle Luke says there was good in his heart and Anakin saved him in the end!"

She might actually end up trying to calm Leia down about him. I mean, all of this is speculation since how that'll depend on how the threads go. But you know.

[sandhate]

Ahahahha... Grandpa... He is 23 OK, he's not ready to be called grandpa (pls call him grandpa)

Good to know Luke's such a good influence!! I think anakin and leia are at a pretty good place rn. Like it might be as good as it gets.. .??

[two_jedi_sticks]

23 is still older than her. That means he's an angry old man and it's therefor still valid to call him gramps!

Ha, Luke really flopped on preserving the order's traditions, but at least he seems to get that part right.

If it's okay I'm probably going to assume Jaina won't recognize Anakin and Obi-wan on sight -- they're big deals in the Clone Wars but the Empire did that super effective purge of information on the Jedi and all.

[sandhate]

angry old man.... stares at hands.

yep, that sounds fair! there are ~force shenanigans~ that can ahah force an interaction between them, if you're down for that.

[imahologram]

I GO TO BED FOR ONE MINUTE

ahahahahaha, no, I'm so pleased *____*

[two_jedi_sticks]

The answer is you're never allowed to sleep, dove!

[imahologram]

ughhhhhh I hope not

[two_jedi_sticks]

Sorry that's just part of parenthood. Have to go to work, have to come home and find time to eat, have to track your errant child down and get her back from the latest disaster she's gotten wrapped up in. The usual.

[imahologram]

she definitely doesn't remember signing up for this

at all

[two_jedi_sticks]

no returns, no refunds

[falconing]

this is gonna be hilarious.

hi! i'm PR, and I play this guy, in addition to Zuko, James Potter, and Hino Rei~ it's nice to meet you and i can't way to further screw up the sw timeline!

[two_jedi_sticks]

Nice to meet you as well! So many pre-emotive apologies for the headaches Jaina might give Han. (At least it makes for good reality TV ratings.)

[resnipstance]

OH HELLO IT'S YOU

it's nice to be in a game with you again!

(hello, this is emiri from ye olde days!!

i now play ahsoka from TCW!! fun times.)

[two_jedi_sticks]

Emiri! It's been a while, I hope you've been doing well.

To be honest I was excited about the notion of Jaina and Ahsoka getting into tiny jedi trouble, but now it's super exciting.
