WHO || Everyone! [ota]
WHAT || Shenanigans.  Sorry that it's covering like half a year.  Forgive me.  Let us never speak of it again.    
WHERE || Anywhere in the castle, surrounding environs, London, Andres, etc!
WHEN || Any time in Fall/Winter 2016
HOW || Actionspam

[ The castle can be a happening place, even on more mundane days. This log is for random interactions over the course of these few months. Because not everyone is into parties, ok. Characters who are not currently squired in may also post, as their characters are living in the castle awaiting their ceremonies.  This takes place after the Knights have returned from rescuing Gar in New York City, but before the planned Keijen Blade concert at the beginning of 2017.

You are encouraged to start your own threads and tag around, and feel free to threadjack into any on-going threads that aren't specified as 'closed' in the subject lines since people can enter into rooms even in the middle of what's going on. WE ARE BIG ON THREAD-JACKING HERE. You can also specify 'single thread', meaning you want only one response for all participants, rather than multi-thread, where a number of different scenes/threads can be done as replies to the top prompt.]

[those footfalls coming down the hall? Yeah, the pilot is coming to check on his friend who went to see the awoken Sith]

Well, he doesn't choke people, for starters. [his arms are crossed, and he's going to just give Rey a look of why are you telling her stuff. She's the bad guy.]

[forcevisions]

[ rey shrinks, somewhat, and goes quiet when poe comes in because he does a good impression of "when your father hears about this, young lady." still, she casts an askance glance to vane. just because she can't articulate why she has to have this conversation doesn't change her investment in it. ]

[throughvictory]

Every leader shows strength in some manner, whether through crude force or not. Makes it clear that they are not to be trifled with. Is he so different than that?

[forcevisions]

No.

[ she's not going to sit around and wring her hands about power and those who wield it or its corrupting influence. that's too high up maslow's hierarchy of needs for this sand rat. it's gonna be hard to pry more than that out of her with poe here because she feels self aware of the questions she wants to ask about the force. but she also finds his presence a strange relief, as if he swept her away from the brink of something. ]

[newgenwraith]

Ruling through fear and force doesn't make a real leader. It makes a dictator.

[he's protective of you, Rey. He doesn't want you to be self-conscious but he also doesn't want this woman to pull one over on you.]

[throughvictory]

You're the one equating fear and force with strength. I merely asked how he showed that he was strong.

[newgenwraith]

No, you actually were asking how he earns loyalty. You're the one who equates earning of loyalty with a show of strength. Doesn't work that way. It's trust, and it's not something you show - it's something you earn in your behaviors and actions. Not just one either, but in multiple ways.

The biggest being in showing trust first.
