Jedi Sorcerer
"Oh, I agree. My favorite drug is—uh, I mean, I don't have a favorite drug, because drugs aren't cool. Don't do drugs."
(It was marcan herb.)
"I dunno if Cora and Makko are really together anymore, what with her marrying that prince." Just thinking about all that made him sad and angry. Starlin didn't want to feel sad and angry, so he jumped at the chance to change the subject. "Not much since the war ended. I fought the Bryn'adul when I was your age. Then the Sith, then the Maw... I don't know if I'd call any of those battles 'cool'. There was a lot of, you know, people dying or getting tortured and maimed. I lost a hand and an eye, myself. It was pretty fething brutal, man."
He paused for a few seconds, then smiled faintly. "There was one time where the Sith invaded Ossus. I was a padawan then, and my master and I went to the Ossus Jedi Temple to defend it. It started snowing. I'm prowling around the Temple grounds, looking for Sith, when I see this guy dressed in all black. He's about the same age as me, red-haired, holding a lightsaber in his hand, but the blade isn't activated and he seems to just be wandering around, not really doing much.
"So I went over and confronted him. He talked to me a little, but then ran off. I tried to stun him, but he resisted. I didn't want to just kill this guy who hadn't attacked me yet, but I didn't want to risk him hurting anybody else either. So I, uh... I used the Force to tickle him." Starlin started to crack up at the memory. "He didn't expect that. He fell over on the ground, rolling around in the snow laughing and begging me to stop. So I stopped and... I started yelling at him about there being little kids hiding in the temple, and how the Sith were going to kill them when they found them. I was mad about it, mad at him for still being on their side when he seemed like he didn't even want to fight. For allowing this chit to happen, and just going along with it. So he offered to help me save the kids, and then we would have a proper duel to the death."
Starlin paused in his story to take another bite out of his cone. "Anyway, we led these kids across the battlefield to a ship waiting nearby. The ship takes off, the younglings are safe, me and the ginger turn to each other... and then we look up in the sky to see a star destroyer about to fall on top of us. Welp. We both get on the nearest ship and high tail it outta there..." Another bite. "Long story short, me and him became good friends. But eventually he went back to Korriban and the Sith, and I haven't really heard from him since."
Was that a cool battle story? He thought so. Hopefully Tenn agreed, otherwise he had just sat there listening to a boring story.
