It's an old face, thin and distinguished, careworn but not unkind; the sort of face you'd happily bank with. It's on top of layers of robes in various shades of brown.
Its owner moves amongst the infirmary beds, reading the curiously spindly letters of the English alphabet, so unlike Aurebesh's sturdy glyphs, until, on one bed's chart, he finds the lines that seem to spell the name of the man he's looking for.
"Dr Stantz?" he greets the man. "The... 'Ghostbuster', correct? We may have much to discuss."
"He sounds a useful man to have on your side, and like a man who deserves help in the face of his own troubles. Perhaps, after I've helped you and yours with this man Peck, I can join in assisting Master K against this... black oil."And wouldn't it be something if it were liquid Dark Side? Or worse yet, liquid Sidious?
"A proper introduction might be in order," Obi-Wan allows as. "I introduced myself to him simply as Ben; I knew Fett would react badly to my real name. Even calling myself 'Ben Kenobi' would have been giving away too much." I don't really need it, but I just had to get the idea out of my head before it started eating brain cells I might actually need someday.
"All right, fair enough," Ray says. "The Men in Black know about discretion and keeping identities secret, which is why he's only going by a designation of one letter. I think we can count on him once we've explained the situation." Mmm, Ian McDiarmid gnawing his way out of someone's head. Nice. NOT.
"I'm glad to hear it. Fett's first experiences with Jedi were not conducive to our getting along, as you might know if your world has those vids." Given a choice between him gnawing out the inside of my head, or having him gnaw his way out? I don't know which I'd choose. Then again, I'm not necessarily sure I'd choose the prequels from Ray's world over the ones from OTL; I'm sick that way.
