Is it normal for things to be this...intense?

[The ghosts, the weird party thing that happened and now...now she isn't sure what to make of anything.]

Rather, is it normal for your old things to suddenly appear? I didn't think I would see it again after leaving Jakku, but...it's better than nothing.

Or, is it a trick and should I prepare for it to be something else? I would like to eventually use it, but if it's a trick....

[Nothing is given freely, especially her Speeder. How or why it's suddenly came to Riverview is beyond her. Does she dare trust it?]

It's probably not a trick. It happens sometimes.

[talentedscavenger]

Still seems odd that something of mine suddenly shows up.

[bringbackgold]

Yeah. This place is a little odd in general. It will probably happen again.

[talentedscavenger]

More than a little odd, but..at least nothing has tried to kill or eat me, so there's that.

Doubtful it'll happen again. Didn't have much with me.

[bringbackgold]

It's not just big things. Things as small as a single piece of paper.

I've also seen...buildings.

[talentedscavenger]

Lovely.

Why would they bring buildings...never mind.

[bringbackgold]

Yes. So expect some surprises. It's not entirely unpleasant, though.

[talentedscavenger]

So far, the surprises I've had haven't been good ones.

Until now. If nothing else happens or pops up, I'm fine with that too.

[bringbackgold]

Well, if you don't want them, they're probably more likely to appear.

[talentedscavenger]

I wouldn't care either way? So...it doesn't matter?

[bringbackgold]

Just. Full of surprises here. At least nothing...really harmful has come through.

[talentedscavenger]

That's at least comforting.

[bringbackgold]

The least they could do.

[talentedscavenger]

There are many things they could do, who knows if they want to.

[bringbackgold]

I suppose that's true, but there's also much less.

[talentedscavenger]

Like what?

[bringbackgold]

Nothing. They could do nothing. No housing. No work to occupy us. No wall.

They could leave us to whatever creatures are out there.

[talentedscavenger]

True. They could also make it hard for us to earn a living, to have food and shelter.

Many things they could do, at least for now they're doing something rather than nothing.

[bringbackgold]

Exactly. And if there's something you're seeking,
I don't think asking will hurt anything.

[talentedscavenger]

Don't think there's anything I would ask for.

[Well, aside from the obvious but, she already had her answer to that.]

[bringbackgold]

Then you're unusual.


Not that it's a bad thing.

[talentedscavenger]

I wasn't thinking it would be a bad thing.

[bringbackgold]

Some people might take being unusual the wrong way.

[talentedscavenger]

True, but I hadn't taken offense to it. I'm not the 'usual' type, as you've seen.

[bringbackgold]

Definitely. Good.

I'm Otabek, by the way.
