Welcome to Coruscant! [Friday morning into Saturday afternoon]

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin couldn't stop a smile from crossing his face as the Temple transport flew closer to their final destination.

When the planet finally came into view, he called the flight students to look out the window.



"Welcome to Coruscant," he said, pointing. "We'll be landing in a few minutes. Strap yourselves in, please."

[OOC: Oh, the OCD has barely begun, my friends... Play away! Coruscant and it's merry minions are open through Friday for your convenience...]

Arriving at the Temple

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin fussed with his hair--to the obvious amusement of the Jedi piloting the transport--and took a couple of deep breaths as the Temple came into view.


Three figures, one tall and dark, the other short and green, and one smiling and all-too-familiar to Anakin, emerged from the shadows as the transport landed.

Anakin swallowed hard and walked down the ramp to greet them. "Master Windu. Master Yoda," he said, bowing. "A pleasure to see you again." He turned and made another bow. "Master Kenobi," he said, trying not to grin and failing. "It's been too long."

Taking the Jedi Starfighters Up

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin led the workshop students from the transport to the starfighter hanger bay.

Two dozen Jedi starfighters gleamed under the lights.

Anakin practically bounced up and down in excitement before bowing to the Jedi Master waiting for them. "Here we are," he said, grinning. "Enough ships for everyone."

Getting Into Your Ships

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Picking a ship out, putting on your spiffy Jedi hairband communicator, taking off....

Running Through the Trench [First Run]

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Zero-gravity canyon run exercise in manuverability. The weapons are turned off for this. An average pilot can get through it in ten minutes.

A Jedi can do it in seven.

Anakin set the course record at five and a half.

Running Through the Trench [Second Run]

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Now the ten targets are lit up along the route. Your weapons are live. Nothing's shooting back at you.

Light 'em up.

An average pilot can go through in twelve minutes.

A Jedi can do it in nine.

Anakin's done it in seven minutes flat.

Ask Anakin for Advice Before Exploring

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

After the flight workshop was completed, Anakin gave the students a quick tour of The Temple (http://community.livejournal.com/fh_trips/13414.html) and an even faster overview of Coruscant (http://community.livejournal.com/fh_trips/13620.html), then cut the students loose to explore on their own.

But he stuck around for a little while to answer any questions they might have.

Heading Back to Fandom [Saturday Afternoon]

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin stood rocking on his toes waiting for the rest of the flight students to arrive.

Not that he thought some of them might've gotten lost.

But, yeah, he was afraid some of them might've gotten lost.

OOC

There will be an Obi-Wan wandering around randomly, yes...let me finish up the rest of the comment threads and then feel free to go nuts :)

Mace Windu returned Anakin's bow. "Skywalker," he said steadily.

Yoda smiled. "To Coruscant, most welcome you are," he said to the students. "Introduce us to your friends, hmmm?" he said to Anakin.

Re: Arriving at the Temple

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin nodded. "I'd like to introduce you to Jaye Tyler, Molly Hayes, Alanna Trebond, Alec, Dean Winchester, Peter Parker, Bridge Carson, Zack Addy, and Jude Lizowski." He smiled at the flight students. "And these are Jedi Masters Yoda, Mace Windu, and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Masters Yoda and Windu sit on the Jedi Council. Master Kenobi is my teacher."

Obi-Wan smiled at the students. "Anakin always speaks well of his students and his friends - it's a pleasure to have the chance to meet some of you."

His smile may have twitched just a little when he spotted Jaye among the students, but fortunately the beard hides that kind of thing.

Re: Arriving at the Temple

[master2-whiners.livejournal.com]

Obi-Wan let Master Yoda welcome the students first, but had a warm smile for his Padawan. "Anakin, it's good to have you back among us. It has been too long - I think some of the younglings have been finding some other Jedi's adventures to memorize."

Re: Arriving at the Temple

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

"Force forbid," Anakin replied with a smile, walking closer. "I'll be back soon enough--we'll have to work on that. It wouldn't do if Master Vos has better stories."

Re: Arriving at the Temple

[master2-whiners.livejournal.com]

"He's been off-world quite a while now," Obi-Wan said, shaking his head. "He's probably going to have quite the collection. Of course, I've been saving up a few stories to tell him myself, though they're probably not the ones you want me to share with the younglings."

Re: Arriving at the Temple

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

"Nothing about me, of course," Anakin said quickly, cheeks flushing. "Master Vos would be bored with those sorts of things. Fascinating tales of trade negotiations, perhaps?"

Re: Arriving at the Temple

Jaye waves happily to Obi-wan. Psh, what other people?

Re: Arriving at the Temple

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge gives the Jedi Masters a cheerful wave. "Hi!"

Re: Arriving at the Temple

[fh_extras]

Mace raised an eyebrow, but Yoda waved back. "Welcome," he said, smiling.

Re: Arriving at the Temple

[master2-whiners.livejournal.com]

Her enthusiasm is definitely infectious, because Obi-Wan gives a small wave back.

Re: Arriving at the Temple

[master2-whiners.livejournal.com]

Obi-Wan turned his small wave at Jaye into a broader one back at the boy.

Re: Arriving at the Temple

[x5-alec.livejournal.com]

Alec lifted one hand in a vague sort of wave at the Jedi, feeling kind of silly. "Hey."

Re: Arriving at the Temple

[fates_jaye]

Jaye internally says "Eeeee!" Extenally, though, she's very cool. Really.

So cool that she totally mouths, "We'll talk later!"

Re: Arriving at the Temple

[fh_extras]

Mace nodded back. "Welcome."

"Aside from the one counselor who threatened to brain me with his boot, no, the sessions themselves have been quite dull. It's the receptions afterward where all the excitement happens. It's fascinating what people will say when their tongues have been loosened by alcohol," he teased. "Don't you think?"
