Sooooo.

Here's a bit of an awkward question:

How many of you guys have someone you don't exactly like holed up in one of those pods? And I don't just mean like "wow that guy's a dick" I'm talking more along the lines of "this guy is a GIANT dick and he will definitely try to kill us [ read: him ] when he wakes up."

Is there any way to...I don't know, pull the plug out of the pods? or something? Do you think we'd get in trouble for that?

[ A little casual accidentally-on-purpose murder never hurt anyone right? Like especially when it's for the greater good, which this totally is. ]

Ooooh isn't there like any sort of way to just...I dunno, not wait? That long? He's sort of a better fighter than I am in that I am not actually one at all, and getting into one with him would probably end with me dying.

Kind of the opposite of what I'm going for here.

[insurgent]

i've been waiting since i was small
you can wait
and prepare

[ bit harsh, if anonymous is truly worried about being killed. ]

you have time
ask for help

[ she asked theon to teach her how to use a bow and arrow for this reason. if her blaster fails, she won't be dying with it. ]

[rhygret]

What like hire someone?

[ THAT IS WHERE HIS MIND GOES FIRST because that's just what you'd normally do back home. Don't like someone? Can't get rid of them yourself? Pay someone else to do it for you! ]

[insurgent]

no
ask someone to teach you how to protect yourself

[rhygret]

Oh
I guess?

I'm not exactly the "fighting" type
I work better with my hands

[ waggles brows @ jyn ]

[insurgent]

[ ... ]

consider hand-to-hand combat

[ amiright ladies ]

[rhygret]

I have a stun baton?

[insurgent]

[ this moonjockey is super doomed, isn't he... ]

better than nothing
maybe you should ask someone to be your back-up

[rhygret]

[ Rhys pretty much survived on Pandora via circumstance and good reflexes during QTEs. His survival skills on their own are minimal at best. ]

Yeah a little muscle wouldn't hurt. Probably four? Four is usually the best number for these sorts of thing. From what I've heard.

[insurgent]

only if you can find four people to trust

[rhygret]

I don't think I really need to trust them in particular. Just that they'll be able to take him down.

[insurgent]

but why would they pick you over him?
all we have is your word

[rhygret]

Because in theory I'd be paying them to do it?

[insurgent]

[ she laughs. ]

with what money?

[rhygret]

What you don't think I plan on being poor forever do you?? I've made money before. It's not hard.

[insurgent]

i suppose
but money makes for fickle friends

[ reece sold them out for it. ]

[rhygret]

Why would I send people I care about near that guy??

[insurgent]

[ wow that hits her right in the "abandoned by saw and forced out of his fight" wound. nice. ]

maybe you aren't sending them
maybe they care about you, too, and want to help
and maybe they can take care of themselves

[rhygret]

[ Hey now!! Rhys would never send Jyn in without trying to do his best to help okay?? She falls under the "cares about" category now.

She complimented his clothes, like that was a total shoe-in there. ]

Oh. Uhh. Well I was thinking more of trying to find a mercenary more than anything...

[insurgent]

[ look... this is a sensitive topic, ANONYMOUS. just take her advice already!! ]

if your enemy is so fearsome, a mercenary is pointless

[ most, if not all, bounty hunters serve the Empire. ]

[rhygret]

[ No!!!!

Except he'll probably take it under consideration so...you know. ]

Really? Because mercenaries did a pretty good job the first time.

[insurgent]

[ she almost disconnects. ]

if he's alive
they did a terrible job

[rhygret]

Look he was definitely dead back before we all wound up here okay? I don't exactly know why he's suddenly back.

[insurgent]

[ that catches her attention. ]

you're sure he was dead?

[rhygret]

100%. His body wasn't even around anymore or it would've been recovered for sure.
