[ 1; Chapel; ]

[ Kanan makes his way into the nearest quiet room from where he woke up - this place feels all wrong to him, and he's not sure why. Meditation, though - that's what he needs. He needs to calm himself, center himself, and - all unknowing - he chooses the chapel to do so.

Settling in, legs tucked under him on the floor, he takes a few deep breaths, and then reaches out - to the web of energy that connects all life - and finds -

Well, he finds Ezra quickly enough, their bond as strong as it ever is, and he's nearby, Kanan can tell, and that's reassuring. But the others...

Usually, no matter how far apart they are, on opposite ends of the galaxy even, Kanan can reach out through the Force and sense his family. He can find Sabine and Zeb and Hera (not a day has gone by in almost ten years that he hasn't been able to sense Hera) but today... today they're gone, and it distresses him. He doesn't allow himself to panic, but it unmoors him a little, weakens his concentration.

Nonetheless, he can certainly sense anyone who approaches him. ]

I don't suppose you can tell me who's responsible for bringing us here?

[ B; Mess hall ]

[ Kanan is at least good enough at following his nose to make his way to where most of the food is kept. Of course, that doesn't mean the food is any good, or edible for him. Or that he can figure out what it even is, given that he's blind and therefore has to rely on his other senses. ]

Okay, just answer me one question: is there something here other than protein milk and ration bars?

[ C; wildcard ]

[ Got another idea? Toss me a prompt or PM me your idea so we can hash something out! ]

I spent most of my life refusing to join the Rebels. I thought it was suicide.

[ maybe it was. it likely had been for them, if she ever gets to go home and find out how that story plays through. ]

But then there was a mission. One only I could complete.

[kanyounot]

It pretty much is suicide, yeah. It just depends on whether you care more about living than about fighting for something.

[ He says that with no judgment implied. Most people will and should choose to live. ]

I avoided it for a long time, too. Kept my head down.

[adjy]

[ she nods, keeping her head down. that's an accurate depiction of what she'd done as well. ]

What we did was bigger than our lives. It may well have won the war.

[ otherwise she never would have gotten involved. ]

[kanyounot]

Good. When I left, things weren't looking too great for the Rebellion.

[ Atollon had been a low point, for sure. They lost a base, they lost a lot of good people. It was going to be hard to bounce back from. ]

[adjy]

I'm sorry to hear that.

[ and to her credit, she sounds sincere. ]

My team may well never make it off Scarif, but it will still be worth it. History will reward us.

[ it's ironic to say that while bodhi and herself are here, perhaps. ]

[kanyounot]

Mm. I've got a sneaking suspicion I don't have much longer, either. But I made my peace with that a long time ago.

Some of us make that choice, to give ourselves over to something bigger than us. A greater good.

[ He smiles wryly. ]

Buuuuuut we'll have to find a way off this station in the meantime.

good ending point?

[adjy]

Yes, we will. [ she agrees forcefully. ] If only for their sakes.

[ everyone else who's trapped here. everyone who still has a future back whence they came from. ]
