"You didn't seem to have any difficulty keeping up."

[Have a smug grin.]

I had six older sisters. It was either keep up or be kicked out, really. Though more often than not Henri and I would team up; with three years between I and my next oldest sister, and but one between he and me, it was easier for us to work together.

[That certainly explained the wits and tenacity, at least.]

"The Jedi upbringing tends to eliminate family dynamics. Sometimes perhaps it is a disadvantage as much as it is an advantage, though it is obviously necessary in order to prevent dangerous emotional attachments from forming before we are prepared to handle them."

I would say you missed out, but you didn't. Even with a lack of a formal familial structure you still have older Jedi you look up to for advice and guidance, yes? And peers of your age group that you befriend or treat as rivals. I think all it is that you would have not enjoyed were the constant needling, threats, and pranks...[She smirks.]

You have not heard true horror until a woman thinks her entire spring line of clothing to be shown has been dyed neon pink.

"... Oh, believe me, there were pranks. None so destructive, mind, but there was a particular incident with a prospective knight's saber crystal..."
fleurdesel: right, confused, sarcastic (This is my innocent face)

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-02-22 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
...Saber crystal?

[She blinks, frowns, and tries to think of a way for that phrase to make sense. Crystals and sabers. Sabers and crystals. She's still drawing a blank but- oh. Light, prisms, crystals. Lightsaber. It does make some kind of sense. Not much, but it does.]

"... Ah. Apologies. Yes. Lightsabers are made out of several components, but possibly the most important, and certainly the one with the most personal symbolism and significance, is the crystal. It is precisely that- a rare crystalline gemstone, resonant with and attuned to the force, through which the light that creates the beam is focused. Obviously, any laser must be focused through a lens of some sort, but this also creates a personal attunement with the lightsaber, more effectively bonding it to you. It is agreed by most Jedi that the lightsaber and the robes are our only true possessions, and that even the latter can be changed or disposed of if need be."
fleurdesel: right, confused (so...what)

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-02-22 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Jedi build their own lightsabers, and they have to find a crystal that is resonant with the Force, and with them, so as to simplify their addition of it to their body awareness. Yes? [If that much went into the saber...]

Do you weave and sew your own robes as well, then? Or is there a 'Jedi robe depot' in the temples?
averybadfeeling: (Ponder)

I have no idea who makes Jedi robes, it's not mentioned on the wiki. ASSPULL ALERT.

[personal profile] averybadfeeling 2012-02-22 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
"... In point of fact, we do not. Perhaps we should. Actually, there are many branches of the Jedi Order beyond the Knights, far less dramatic but no less important. The majority of the Jedi Order live in service to the Galaxy through other means, as administrators, agricultural analysts, doctors and medical professional, and, among other things, craftsmen. The latter craft our robes."
fleurdesel: right, smirk, smile, serious (Not certain just yet)

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-02-22 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Jedi physicians? I suppose a good deal of my work would be much simpler if I were Force sensitive. The empathy would be more effective than asking 'on a rating of 'my joint creaks a bit' to 'my brain is full of bees' how much pain are you experiencing?'

[Because from 1 to 10 was arbitrary, and numbers were fluid when it came to physical pain.]

So you would not be able to demonstrate how to weave and sew one? Pity. [They seemed terribly comfortable, and were probably a good deal warmer for the voluminous nature of the robes.]

"... We may be able to find something similar in the clothing shop. I saw some other items that resembled variations upon the same general theme, though most were stiffer and likely meant for martial arts tournaments."
fleurdesel: right, smile, smirk, serious (Well that's interesting)

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-02-22 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I never understood why they were starched quite like that. Do you not want to move easily when engaged in combat, even if it is a practice match? Then again they are loose enough, a great deal different than what most dancers wear when they practice, even if in both cases the form and stance are equally vital, though for completely different reasons.

"I couldn't say. We always sparred in our standard attire unless we were wearing protective gear of some sort. Then again, our standard attire is specifically designed to be utilitarian and provide mobility in battle."
fleurdesel: left, serious (still alive)

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-02-22 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Better loose and comfortable than skin tight and constricting.

[A soft huff of distaste. She understood the whys of the dance attire she was accustomed to, but that didn't make it any more comfortable.]

[personal profile] averybadfeeling 2012-02-22 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
"Some Jedi actually found skintight clothing preferable. They insisted that it still provided freedom of movement, without the potential for loose clothing weighing them down or catching on anything. I obviously did not follow that particular school of thought, but I can see a logic to it."
fleurdesel: right, laugh (This is some kind of surprise)

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-02-22 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
...

[Adele blinks and tilts her head to one side, looking Ben up and down. And thinking. She can't quite imagine whatever a tight Jedi's robes would be like, but she could very easily substitute them with typical mens dance tights and shirt. Brown and tan, of course, but...Still. She bites her lip, tries very, very hard to repress a smile, and ultimately fails. She covers her mouth with her hands and almost doubles over in hysterical laughter.]

[And he's just going to wait for you to be quite finished. HE HAS GUESSED EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE DOING THERE.]
fleurdesel: left, smile, smirk (There's room over here for you)

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-02-23 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry- [And now she's laughed so hard she's given herself the hiccups. Still, it was entirely worth it. One hand on her mouth while she attempts to breathe she grins over at Ben.] I didn't-I'm s-sorry. [Hiccup.]
