May the Fourth Be With The All Skate

[jedi_interrupted]

The bar shifts, or it changed when no one was looking, and now resembles a certain cantina popular with the villainy and scum, as well as more upstanding folks. The air is dryer than usual, and a taste of grit and sand just hangs in the air. It just makes you want some blue milk doesn't it?

Has your character changed? Perhaps...who can tell? The Landlord I suppose but they aren't talking.

[ooc: HI and Welcome to a Star Wars themed All Skate, the best way to celebrate May the Fourth! Party style post. You do not have to interact with any of my characters to play.
The Rules are simple:
- This post, and any post with the subject heading ALL SKATE are open to everyone.
That means old characters, new characters, retired characters, doubles of characters, original characters, non-canon compliant characters.
- We will all play nice and adhere to Wheaton's Law: Don't be a dick.
- Gratuitous behavior, either of a violent or sexual nature, will not be tolerated in the Comm. Take that to an OOM, and then Content Warning the hell out of it before you link it.
- Communication is paramount. Everyone's keyed up, let's just have some fun.]

She had been worried about an attack, be she was used to Anakin who usually would attack physically first. When the Force grabs her and pulls, she is caught off guard and nearly pulled off her feet.

A cry escapes as she bends forward, face heading for the bartop. She manages to get a hand up to try and catch herself from hitting but the Force pushes her forward more so she reaches with the Force to push back.

It slows her but his push is much greater than anything she can manage and slowly she is forced down.

The time it takes until her skin finally slams into the countertop is enough to get his breathing back under control--and his emotional shields mostly up. Or, at least, as much as they ever are.

She'll find her cup and pot in shards with the tea pooling around them.

Vader still isn't looking at her.

"Never say that name."

His fists closes further for a long moment--Understood, Jedi?--before he releases her altogether.

She gasps at the release and slowly lifts herself.

(She is no jedi, but she understands.)

"Fair enough I suppose." She moves her head from side to side to allow her neck to flex and crack. She can give him that much.

Not that she was able to stop him.

"May I ask if you knew about the chips in the clones or is that a forbidden topic as well?"

[forceimbalance]

The Force tugs once, warningly--it is not her place to decide what is 'fair' for them to discuss.

Both it and Vader quiet down after.

(What would the galaxy have looked like if Rex and Skywalker had listened to Fives?

No. The Emperor would have killed them, and Skywalker would have been too weak to stop it. She would have been defenseless, and Sidious would have taken--)

He doesn't even bother giving her an irritated glance for her continued attempts to... well, do what she just did. She has always been impudent. "My Master revealed his plan to me when I became his apprentice," he says at last.

"Of course. And I am sure you are fine with it, as it was all part of the plan."

She has always been free with her opinions, he knows this. It's how she got her nickname after all.

Reaching for her tea cup, which somehow has survived this encounter, she takes a sip before setting it back down. "Anything is permissable as long as it is part of the plan."
