[Lisbeth can get by just fine with some mediocre job if she has to, that's not the issue. She's not going to advertise herself for a job. What she is going to do is try and get some resources on the technology here and maybe, just maybe, find a few like-minded people that share her interests. Maybe they could even be useful in the future.]

Anyone good with the tech here?

I've figured out a few things. I need to learn more.

[She hates putting herself out there like this but after days of going back and forth and considering the consequences, she has decided it's really the only way. She just doesn't have the network or resources she had back home.]

Any kind of computer or machinery or anything.

[Starships? Lisbeth doesn't respond for almost five minutes after that. She's lost in her own mind, imagining the possibilities of what this person could teach her. It's not impossible for her to learn from others - she did so with Plague for the longest time - even if she fars prefer learning on her own. Finally she responds:]

Would you teach me?

[rey doesn't know why she's had so many people ask her this. on jakku, it's a matter of life or death to know the basics of starships at the very least. but she supposes it makes sense that other people on other planets might not need those skills.]

sure
what are you looking to learn? repairs, piloting, upgrades?

[Lisbeth is a little surprised. There's no demand for an exchange, no price given, no rebuttal. This makes her suspicious, but for now she'll let it lie.]

Repairs to start with. I can reverse engineer basic machines and motors and put them back together again but that is all, nothing more complicated than that.

[rey isn't a very money-driven person. probably because she'd never had any money before coming to thisavrou. everything on jakku was done through bartering. she'd never even though of making a legitimate business out of the odd fixes she was already doing until someone mentioned it to her.]

that's impressive
i have a shop in region 5

I'll get there when I can.

[There's a lot of weird shit happening on both planets right now and she is still so new that traveling around is an adventure all its own. She'll also want to check out this person well before ever actually meeting them.]
