At night

[forcechanic]

Why do we keep going to places that include weird alternate universe versions of Yoda? They even all talk like him!

[She's never going to understand why her universe's history keeps playing out everywhere except space.]

You've got to be joking.

[forcechanic]

Nope, joking's my brother's thing. We had weird ninja Yoda and now we have weird elf Yoda.

[memoryandtheft]

That's officially the weirdest thing I've ever heard.

[And that's saying something, considering some of the competition.]

[forcechanic]

And the Jaunt's only just started.

[memoryandtheft]

I'm pretty sure it'll all be downhill from here.

[forcechanic]

We have a bit of a troubling track record for Jaunts ending up on fire...

[memoryandtheft]

Please tell me you mean metaphorical fire.

[forcechanic]

No, the shogun's palace actually burned down.

[memoryandtheft]

I'm probably going to regret asking this, but why?

[forcechanic]

Part of a jailbreak. I was too busy defending the monastery when it happened, but the shogun hadn't been terribly popular. Hence the monastery needing defending.

[memoryandtheft]

I really wish that didn't make perfect sense.

[forcechanic]

It seems to be one of those things that pops up over and over.

[memoryandtheft]

Jailbreaks, sieges, or horrible rulers?
