[video; locked to: Anakin/Obi-Wan, Ahsoka, Leia, Rey, Ava, Cassandra, and Wanda]
[The video post actually starts off with a kitten walking over the top of it, soft muffled talking with the heavy padding of paws over-foot for a moment, and then a "hey, hey, not right now." It's finally adjusted so Anakin can talk into the MID properly. He's still tired; those circles under his eyes aren't likely to go away any time soon, but it's countered with a small almost-smile. Not sad, not perfect, but present.]
Look, I know with everything the ship's been through in the last week, time is short and expensive. I'll try to keep this brief. With the recent mishandling of hostile situations on-board and with "relations" with our...host planets?
Obi-Wan, what would you even call them?
[As he's here and has ears and common sense, Kenobi is quick to take hold of Anakin's MID and address the network himself, although he's merely... correcting Anakin's word choices, anyway.]
Well, first, I wouldn't say it was mishandled. Nor would I call what came of that as relations. Otherwise, host planet seems just fine.
[Leave it to Kenobi to be pedantic. He smiles thinly into the camera and then disappears back off-screen for for the time being, leaving Skywalker to his pitch.
Anakin rolls his eyes as he takes the camera back.]
Anyway, we've both been thinking. All of you have, at some point or another, expressed pointed interest in what it is we do, and we think it's high time to take advantage of that.
[A pause as he carefully defers back to Obi-Wan. This is skirting new territory that he's not even sure how to press forward with, only that he can't do it alone.]
I think what Anakin is suggesting is that we make good use of our time here. There's no end in sight, so this is the perfect time to take stock in what we know and give credence to what we don't. In this case, the more the merrier.
[It's enough to cover the breadth of what they talked about, and therefore Kenobi feels satisfied in leaving the rest of this in Anakin's hand. Kitten now in tow, he disappears off-screen once more.]
I want to be clear that this isn't an obligation. [Not yet.] I'm--We are not asking you to give anything up, regardless of how the old Order did it. All I'm asking is that you want to help.
[ooc note: being on this filter is no obligation to reply; if you want on the ~Jedi Training~ filter and you're not, let's get that CR rolling otherwise.]

[She's a little skeptical, but she wants to try. Even if she's still secretly preparing to run away because this ship is cursed and she's freaked out after the recent incident.]
no subject
[ He means that generally. If you don't have the Force, there's no way to teach that. But he imagines she already knows as much thanks to Luke. ]
no subject
[Which is as much of an excited yes as anyone's going to get out of her. ]

I look forward to it. Already I'm positive you'll heed my advice more readily than Anakin ever has.

[But as difficult as praise is, many find it harder still to impress him. It's not a light thing given, this concession to civilian allies, but that's always been the real point, hasn't it?]
Helping people doesn't require a title. I mean, it doesn't hurt. [Sometimes. When faith is thin, and xenophobia doesn't factor into it at least.] But I think...I think we can all help each other. I have to believe that. It can't hurt to try, can it?
