ascetical( It's the later part of the afternoon on Day Three when Kenobi and McCoy appear on the network, having retreated to one of the guest huts together. McCoy wastes no time in speaking first, all quiet, stubborn intensity: )
Ben and I have just spoken with Chief Yerek and his majordomo, so you can all hold onto your dour horses a while longer.
( He lifts his gaze to his compatriot, who continues the thread evenly and quickly. )
He was quite grateful that we informed him, and he’s asked us to provide him with any updates in regards to a more formal plan. But until we know exactly how we’re going to help the Hivawei, the people at large mustn’t know.
( Something the Chieftain had said resonates with Ben in particular — Fear and panic for transparency’s sake helps no one but the consciences of those who know. He cannot help but agree.
McCoy nods. )
Chief Yerek should be communing with the leaders from the other settlements as we speak, but we’ll see how things shake out. The chief’s majordomo Bleicen seemed … pretty shocked when we broke the news.
( Kenobi exhales. )
Yes. And knowing these people have families of their own and a very strong willingness to keep trying … well, if there’s a way to help offer that option to them, perhaps it’s one worth trying on our part.
[ ooc: threadjacking and talking amongst yourselves is completely and entirely encouraged! ben and bones will be around when they're around to respond, but other than that, have at! ]
