First off, whoever built these buckets of bolts in the hangar bay need to be let go. This is what happens when you let factories churn out garbage in large numbers: who's quality checking?

[He is. He's been here all of a few days, and he's already sequestered in the hangar, lamenting (loudly) over the sad state of automated affairs. This is where the video starts: he has the communicator propped up a short distance away as he's digging into the mechanics of one of the robots that had glitched out and come to a jerking halt with a wrench still clenched in its hand.

He mutters something about matrices before finally looking back up. This isn't the real point behind the message, regardless of how distracted he currently seems.]

Sad state of mechanical affairs aside, I have a question. [He sounds suddenly hesitant, as if he honestly doesn't want to ask it at all. He even rolls his shoulders back uncomfortably, before taking a long, deliberate breath.] I'm looking for a sparring partner. Swordsmanship proficiency if I can find it.

[Hoping against hope, but he doesn't sound too hopeful at all. As far as he knows, those who can really challenge him in this area are all back home, and neither side of that equation has a way to get back to the other... ~~yet~~.]

Might as well make the most of being stuck out here, anyway.

Those droids might belong to someone, you know.

[ Cassian's accent is thick and his squinting ability is mighty. ]

Sparring, however, I can do. Haven't had much chance to work with swords, though.

[ OK, your video is great and everything, but Luke zeroes in on the username. There's something tugging at the edge of his perception, but he can't quite place it. ]

Your name is Skywalker?

[... excuse you. Are you cleared to dissemble the robotics around here? Kay stares at the screen for a long moment before speaking, in a mildly offended tone:]

Is the sad state of mechanical affairs part of your assigned job here? Not that you are wrong. Nothing here in the hanger appears to be worth ones time.

do you mean actual fencing or the gay shit with the white spandex and beekeeper masks where you hopscotch around and poke each other in the crotch with knitting needles

because i can do both

It's a good thing they have you here if you caught all of that. Don't really want to get inside something that might fall apart...

Another one of you. I'm starting to wonder what draws you all here.

[ His lips quirk into an easy smile. ] I've held a sword once or twice, but I'm afraid I can't help you. Still, you should be able to find someone.

The only up-side - if you can call it that - is that some of us have our own ships here with us.

[ Hera has a small smile on her face. ]

But, when you don't have any alternatives, you make do with what you can.

[ Here's Jace, arms folded and chin lifted. He's been throwing himself into training these last few days. He already misses the sparring partners he ought to have, but since that's not an option, anyone with experience is better than no one. ]

I'm good with a sword. I'll take you up on that. You formally trained?

[ He said proficiency, so Jace has some hope. He could use a challenge. ]
