[ You can make VIDEOS ON THIS THING.
Now that Nina knows this, no one is safe. Well, okay, not true, because she's still got to get the hang of it. You, the viewer, are once again treated to a vision of... the Aid Station wall.
Nina: "Where's the camera again?"
John, her long-suffering patient who isn't suffering as much as he is laughing at her: "On the corner, there."
Nina: "But that means I have to hold my wrist like--" Abruptly, the picture changes and now Nina's squarely in view, "--oh yes, you're right. That's a better idea."
John: "...so are you gonna say something or?"
Nina: "Oh Saints, is it recording already? Blast--"
Bright smile is go! ]
Hello, everyone! If we haven't met yet, I'm Nina Zenik.
There are so many of us here from so many different places. It’s hard to believe it’s been nearly two months, and now more of us are coming. I’m not used to making announcements like this [ some noise from beside her, Nina looks toward John and corrects: ] -- or, posts? Apparently they’re called posts. -- but even some the Adament crew I’ve spoken to are interested in my questions, so they’ve assured me they don’t mind if I - post - with this.
So tell us - what’s it like where you’re from? What are the legends that are most popular? What are the courtship practices? [ She’s absolutely not crafting this whole post because she’s searching for ideas on this, nope. ] Are you one of those of us have been fighting a war -- excuse the question if it’s rude, there just do seem to be a lot of us. I’d ask you to talk about your favorite foods instead, but that might be more depressing than helpful. Oh - here’s one: If you’re from an Earth, how do you know it’s a different Earth than all the other Earths? And if not, does your planet have a name or is mine the only one that doesn't?

[ He can't help it—he casts a furtive glance around the room, to make sure nobody's really looking their way. Not that it matters so much here, but... old habits. He doesn't even really realize that he's doing it.
Then he lifts an open hand, using the Force to telekinetically roll the bandage into a neat little spiral, then lift it up and deposit it into the basket. His hand follows the motion slightly, but he otherwise doesn't even come close to touching it. ]
Among other things. [ He shrugs. The Force is useful in plenty of other ways, but telekinesis happens to be the showiest and therefore easiest to demonstrate. ]

Oh, now I've never seen anything quite like that before. I've seen something called Mist power a flying vehicle, but nothing that can just make -- objects move on the own. [ She leans back and looks at him with bright-eyed interest. ] So - I thought you said the Force connected all living things -- you're not going to tell me the bandage is alive, are you? If it is, I feel I owe it an apology.
no subject
No, it's definitely not alive. But I can still use the energy around it, or feel the energy left behind when someone touches it. [ He pauses again, his expression thoughtful, still figuring out how best to explain this to someone completely new to the concept of the Force. ]
Nothing exists on its own. Everything is connected through the Force, in its own way. It's just that living things are different. I had a Master who would call us luminous beings—it's kind of like we're beacons of light in the Force.
[ He looks at her hopefully. Is this making any sense at all? ]
sorry for the delay!
no worries!
Is it different for Grisha? You said you manipulate matter.
sorry again - I wasn't able to keep on vacation like I thought I'd be. lmk if you want to drop!
Yes. I'm a Corporalki - we can manipulate what goes on in a living being. Their emotions, their physical form... it's why I can use my abilities to heal, or to take away pain. But there are also Etherealki and Materialki, who manipulate the elements and basic materials, respectively. What I wouldn't give to have a Fabrikator here... [ She shakes her head slightly. ] You said the Jedi are peacekeepers?
