[The message is in a deep, clipped, precise and very cold voice, accompanied by that iconic breathing.]Do not presume to think that you will escape the wrath of the Empire over this effrontery. Though the exact method and details of my abduction and arrival in this place are intriguing, clever tricks alone will not serve you here. Perhaps, if you

[oh god what do]

[almostprimal]

[wait don't panic you are a big bad jedi now]

[almostprimal]

[......... also you can't run away from him while you're stuck on this inescapable backwater rock, SO MAN UP STARKILLER]

C: done

[almostprimal]

[RECALL THAT TIME YOU FINALLY FOUGHT BACK AFTER HE KILLED YOU LIKE TWICE... JERK]

Vader.

fff

[breathingsounds]

[Wait what.]

My Dark Apprentice....

[almostprimal]

No!

[...an audible breath, then he forcefully evens out his tone he is so terrible at this whole emotional control thing Jedi are supposed to have] No. You're not my Master anymore.

[breathingsounds]

[HUH and no wait he's right the tremor in the Force isn't quite right.]

Hn.

I see.

Starkiller, then.

[almostprimal]

[... huh. That wasn't as satisfying as he thought it would be. It didn't liberate him from fear of his old master. He hasn't won anything here, except maybe:]

The rebel alliance-- survived?

[breathingsounds]

[A little lie never hurt anyone.

Well all right that's not true but hey Starkiller the stupid girl who made you all weak isn't here if she's dead then you can stop it with this light-side nonsense.]

They have been all but crushed. I was moving to capture a one of the leaders and exterminate the few surviving members when I found myself here.

[almostprimal]

[SOB oh god, guess who sounds so crushed] No...

[he wants to ask about Juno but he can't because what if she's dead, you and your lies suck Vader almost as much as starkiller's lack of ability to detect them]

[breathingsounds]

The majority have been captured and executed, or died in an attempt to escape the fist of the Empire. Surely you did not believe that a poorly organized band of malcontents would stand a chance against the full wrath of the Empire. Against me.

[almostprimal]

[:C defeated] ... no.

private; also reverse-encrypting the past 4 posts or so

[breathingsounds]

[At this point Vader has looked into enough of the options of the communicator and how it works and stuff that he can start pulling fancy tricks with it, so this conversation switches to private/encrypted, with him reverse-encrypting and locking everything since he started telling lies that theoretically someone might be able to contradict.

And how.]

Perhaps you have managed to learn something, since last we met.

PERMAPRIVATE behold my laziness

[almostprimal]

[bitterly:] We could have killed the Emperor together, then. You could have been free.

[His tone all but says: instead you just killed me........ again.]
