[The video feed shows Luke in a bed, clearly in medical. He leans in, and, with a finger over his lips, hushes the camera.]

I don't think they want me talking to anyone. I think they want me to just... sit here. I, ha- what do you do when you're not supposed to... do anything? I mean, anything. They don't want me to- to work on anything, or fix anything. Or walk.

[Clearly this has nothing to do with the fact that he's already tried to sneak out of medical once already. He winces his way through a smile.]

Do you know anything about the big droids? I mean, the really big ones. They call themselves Cybercon-... Aut-... [He shakes his head, and then winces.] They call themselves a lot of things.

[He looks around, this time much more slowly.] But- shh, I don't think they want me talking to anyone.

[ooc For those of you brave souls who want to visit Luke when he's bored, concussed and with a few broken ribs, feel free.]

[And in turn, Luke's expression gets gentler. This is where he finds his strength.]

You're an officer on the ship, but I'm always a Jedi. [He's momentarily forgotten that Gregor might not know what that is.] Whatever happened is my fault. We can fix it together, if you want to be involved.

[Gregor's eyes narrow slowly.]

I'm not sure how being a Jedi makes someone twenty times your mass attacking you automatically your fault. [He has no clue what a Jedi is, but he changes tack abruptly anyway.] It was Tarn, wasn't it? Large even by Cybertronian standards, purple, wears a mask?

[t65]

Because a Jedi should have handled it on their own. [Luke says it calmly, coolly.]

I really don't remember what happened, and I'm not sure... if you want me to give a report, I will, when I can think straight.

[lets_see_what_happens]

I see. [Now you really sound like Miles, but Gregor is too polite to say so.] Please do.

[His tone softens a little again.]

Not half because I would like to know when you're feeling better, and when you are actually permitted visitors instead of having to whisper into your MID.

[Luke laughs softly, cringes, and keeps smiling through it.]

I appreciate it. And I'll help your investigation any way I can. Just- let's do it together, alright? Jedi are supposed to uphold justice wherever they are.

[He thinks. Probably. It's not like Yoda ever covered this.]

[lets_see_what_happens]

I see. I'll welcome your assistance once you're healed, then.

[Woe betide Tarn if Gregor bumps into him before that, then.]

[t65]

I'll do my best. I'm pretty new at all this.
