A few things:

[ Exile doesn't waste time with pleasantries. She's sure they're all thrilled to be here and there's probably more than enough whining and nonsensical banter going on. Good times, thanks but no thanks. ]

So, how many of us are here? At all? And how many of is are out of the pods? Does anybody keep a tally?

Besides that, I know there are some Force sensitives out and about. You've probably felt me, too. You know that feeling of dread and despair that permeates the walls sometimes? That's me. I'd be interested in hearing about the state of the galaxy from where and when you're from.

[ Her main reason to know who's who is to avoid them, of course. She can't help but feel like she needs to keep tabs on anyone that might be a danger to others though. ]

And lastly: card games. Show me yours and I'll show you mine.

A census.

[That's all. He says it really authoritatively though, like that answer will solve all problems.]

[saucius]

Well.

You're not wrong.

[awesomenesss]

Thanks.

[Wait.]

I mean, that's what we should do. Throw a census.

[saucius]

We could use this network. Hmm...

[ Welp, now she's seriously considering it. ]

[awesomenesss]

Sure, yeah. But then we might miss some people. I say we set up a booth and pass out free pizza... but to get a free piece of pizza you have to sign our census form.

And everyone's gonna sign for free pizza.

[saucius]

What's pizza?

[ See how this plan is flawed from the start? ]

[awesomenesss]

[Andy sucks in a breath and holds it, horrified. There's a pause.

Then he laughs.]

Ha ha, nice try. Unlucky for you, I am a great judge of character. You can't mess with me, I'm unmessable. And that blank-face trick? Oldest one in the book.

[saucius]

...sure, whatever.

[ Making a mental note to check this pizza thing. ]

Still, we're a lot of people. Is there enough pizza?

[awesomenesss]

I mean, it's gonna be a big order. We'll probably need like, two, three semis to pick it up? Or I guess we could just have the census at a pizza place. Like, first window, census form, bam. Second window, pizza? Ah, yes, thanks, bam.

And then a guard at the beginning and the end to make sure nobody tries to double-cens.

[saucius]

This is getting pretty contrived, I'd say.

I'm going to feel very silly if it turns out there is a list with all the information posted somewhere.

[awesomenesss]

Oh, yeah, it's gonna. That's-- [Official Voice] --the government.

[Ha ha, that's a joke he doesn't get.]

Anyway, if there's already a list, it's probably an incomplete, 'cause signing that list the first time didn't involve any pizza. People are afraid to get censed. It happens every year.

[saucius]

You're very straightforward in your preferences, aren't you?

[ Pizza guy. ]

[awesomenesss]

Haha, yeah! I'm a simple man of simple tastes, and I like the way pizza tastes. But it's not my favorite food. I think I like burritos better. Maybe? But you can't give those out as easily.
