[There's no video at first, just a fumbling noise, some muted swearing before the screen flickers on and pans up to finally see Jorge's face. He's still looking a tad annoyed ( Read more... )

There's some normal recruits. I think Jack's signing up normally. ...Not the girl-Jack, the captain one who flirts a lot.

I made up a primer on how to use the datapads, a month or so back. I could send it to you?

Nah, I'm fine, I'll figure it out. Thanks. [Or start bashing it off a wall, either works]

Jack, huh? I'll keep that name in mind. Something tells me it ain't a common name around here. Haven't talked to that many people.

[But he asked... Luke shrugs; not worth arguing.] All right.

There aren't that many names you can call 'common'... Antilles, yeah, but that's a surname. It's a big galaxy, and there's a lot of languages to choose names out of. [heeey segue!]

Mine's Luke.

Chief Warr... [A pause. Damn, he was really going to have to break that habit.]

Jorge. Just call me Jorge.

All right.

So you're a soldier, right?

You mean back where I come from? Yeah.

Although, I'm also one here, too, so...

You familiar with the weapons people use? Melee weapons - you know, the kind you swing - are starting to come up more, I guess to get around energy shields, but the main arms are blasters.

Back where I'm from, I was a heavy-weapons expert. But, I'm no slouch at close-combat, either.

The guy at the recruiting station made sure I was familiarised with the tech. [On request, of course. But who can deny a 7'4" supersoldier whe he asks?]

[Nod.] You should see about heavy repeaters, then. I like lighter rifles with more range, but [Luke shrugs] not a soldier.

[also: he is small. But he is weirdly precise with anything ranged.]

Well, back where I'm from I used a tank turret. A Heavy Machinegun.

I reckon I could still use one, your tech looks much lighter.

I think they need small repulsors to carry heavy repeaters... The demo had someone carrying it with one hand before he took aim, which doesn't look like it should be possible. The grip at the back's tiny.

[Shrug] I hope you can figure something out.

I'm sure we will. I'll only be useful if they use all of my abilities, after all.
