Topic 8 - If you could have dinner with anyone in all of history, who would it be, and why?

[bruck]

Who I would have dinner with? Hmmm. In historic terms, Darth Bane, who “founded” the Sith, if you can use that term. Just because I’m curious to know what he was like. Could be interesting, you know? I’d love to know what his real motives were to do what he did. After all, there’s almost no information to be found on him

Jeeze, what is it with you Sith guys and Darth Bane? *shakes her head* Honestly... originallity wouldn't kill you, would it?

[bruck]

First of all, I'm not a Sith. Not even remotely. *grins*

And what do you mean with originality?

Re:

[jaina_muse]

What are you, then?

Darth Vader? Said exactly the same thing. He'd want to meet Darth Bane, great and glorious founder... yada, yada. *yawns*

[bruck]

*snorts* Must've missed that.

And I'm just a "Jedi" who left the Order, or rather, was forced to leave.

Not a sith. Huge difference there.

Re:

[jaina_muse]

Why'd they force you to leave?

[bruck]

Well, when you're 13 and no Master has taken you as Padawan by then, you get to leave and work in the AgriCorps or other lovely places like that.

So basically you get trained and taught all your life, you don't know anything outside the Jedi, and when you're unlucky enough not to find a Master - they toss you out and you're supposed to forget all you've learned and start anew.

Fuckers.

Huh. I think I'd be pretty pissed off, too, if that had happened to me.

You might want to keep an eye on those anger issues, though...

[bruck]

I handle my anger just fine, thank you.

You might want to try it sometimes, gives you strength. *smiles*

Re:

[jaina_muse]

Yeah, I'll bet you do. *rolls eyes*

Sorry, been there, done that. I guess it only works for you if you don't give a damn about anybody else anyway. So sorry I can't join that club.

[bruck]

I do give a damn about other people. Xan. Obi-Wan. Just to name a few.

Re:

[jaina_muse]

I'm sure you do. But that doesn't mean you wouldn't sell them out in a second flat if something better came along, does it?

[bruck]

No, I wouldn't. Definitely not Xan, he has my loyalty.

Re:

[jaina_muse]

And Obi-Wan?

[bruck]

Obi-Wan's a good friend, but we just began to be more than acquaintances, so I don't know how deep the friendship will become. Doesn't mean I don't care for him or that I would drop him as soon as I can, though.

Re:

[jaina_muse]

Okay... but what would you do if your friend Xan decided he didn't like you being friends, or whatever, with Obi-Wan?

[bruck]

Eh... tell Xan what I think of him trying to control me.
