Streets of Fandom, Friday morning

Raven prowled through the streets of Fandom, keeping a wary eye out for any villagers foolish enough to be out by themselves (herself excluded, of course) or those who had gone hollow. She was also looking for any of these new visitors to the island she'd both sensed and heard about. Some of them felt...familiar in a way, though she couldn't really explain how -- due either to her empathy being turned down by choice or tiny fragments of her memory drifting away. If they were friend, she'd direct them to the village and safety. If they were not, well, she'd deal with that, too.

She didn't want to get her hopes up that it was help. Hope had long since evaporated, the last traces of it gone after she'd lost Karla. Now it was just protection and survival.

[Open to any villagers, transplantees, hollows, monsters, whomever!]

Well. That was horrifying. And it explained... a lot.

"It's the sensible concern," Kanan allowed, nodding faintly as Stance trotted back to his side, leaning himself up against his leg. "Hence the park. Strength in numbers, that sort of thing."

Or keeping all your eggs in one basket, but he wasn't about to say as much. After all, they'd been surviving here a lot longer than he had.

"And now..." Kanan paused for a moment, reaching out with the Force to be sure. It was oppressive out there to say the least, but there were enough familiar minds that he felt confident in saying, "now you've got us, too. Tripping through the streets with no idea what's out there. Betting you've got your hands more full than you have in a while."

He very nearly left it at that, but a whim, some part of Caleb that he'd tried to bury deep down, had him adding, "How can I help?"

That seemed... it seemed like sound advice. Terrifying advice, and Kanan, who had been running from himself for so long, was briefly tempted to dismiss it out of hand.

Remember yourself.

Caleb Dume would have liked that. Hell, Caleb Dume, Jedi Padawan, liked that now. And Kanan, who had been tentatively letting little pieces of Caleb peek through since his arrival on the island, finally gave in.

"Rescue the ones who still have themselves, and give peace to the empty," he said, and he nodded once, simply. "I'll do what I can."

Ugh. He'd be doing so much better off if he would just let himself be a smart coward, instead of a brave idiot.
uncertain_dume: (Calm)

Well. That was unexpected, but not altogether unappreciated. Kanan blinked, then smiled faintly and gave her a grateful nod of his head.

"Way more efficient than bacta," he said, approvingly. "Thank you."

"Looks like an uncomfortable process," Kanan observed, then turned a wry smile her way. "I'll try not to give you too much to piece back together, then. I'm not a big fan of pain, anyway."

Or, you know, dying. Or any of that sort of thing.

He hesitated for a moment, and then looked down at Stance, who had taken a seat beside him. The dog looked up at the both of them, tongue lolling out of his mouth, feeling a bit more at ease with two people around who had passed the rigorous quality-control sniff-test.

"Hey... you heading back to that park any time soon?"

"If it isn't any trouble," Kanan agreed, giving Raven a wry smile. "He's a good boy, but he's a puppy. And not a fighter by any stretch of the imagination. If I'm going to be pulling search and rescue duty, his nose can't do anything I can't do myself. I'd feel better if he was somewhere safe."
uncertain_dume: (Little Smirk)

"Well, then he'll be in good hands." Kanan turned a wry smile down to Stance, who was sniffing at Raven's hand one more time for good measure. "If he gives you any trouble, just rub his belly. That'll show him."

Yep. Lessons would totally be learned.

"Thanks. I'll hit up the park as soon as I can."

Right now, apparently there were people to save.

Sigh. Yeah. Okay. He was a Jedi.
