[... Yeeeeah, probably not a good idea with this one. Alcoholic tendencies and all.

... Still.]


... I... I kn-know that, er, the point of th-this gathering is to... watch these movies...?

But, er, s-socialization seems to be... a theme, as w-well...

Well, last week was a little rough on people. Maybe Luke was thinking that this would be a good chance to relax and have a good time, rather than be angry or depressed about what we can't change? I don't understand how a Jedi thinks, really.

... P-Possibly. [Robert can't say he understands any better than Lupin does.]

... I-if... if I may ask, what exactly is a... Jedi...?

[... Yeah, most nerds would boo Robert for asking this, but he really doesn't know.]

I presume it is... s-some sort of title...?
redjacketthief: (whine)

i love you anyway :3

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-02-27 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Okay, this was more than socially awkward.

This was a SIN.

Lupin, however, is patient. He won't traumatize Robert for his misstep. This time.]


It is a title. Kind of. They're an order akin to warrior monks, and they have cool powers via a substance called The Force. They also have laser swords.

the feeling is mutual o/`

[Hey, it's not his fault! He's over three hundred years in the future - popular culture looks nothing

... That sounds... fascinating, albeit... strange. Why... laser swords...? Those would be... s-spectacularly useless...

[... Well, this is assuming Terran physics, anyway...]
redjacketthief: (confident)

:3

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-02-27 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
They're magic lasers? [As if that explains everything...]
semper_cogitans: (O:)

... My last tag exploded. I think an HTML tag borked and I never noticed

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-02-29 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
...

Magic... l-lasers...? [Excuse him while he's simultaneously baffled and intrigued.]
redjacketthief: (is this what I think it is?)

/shrugs its cool, happens to me all the time.

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-03-01 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. They run on The Force and Lucas' imagination. [He's being a little sarcastic, but not unkindly. He's making a joke of his own lack of knowledge.]
semper_cogitans: (>_>)

Stupid tag fails. ;;

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-03-01 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
[And of course, Robert is taking this a hundred percent seriously.]

... Lucas...? [Yes, he doesn't recognize George Lucas. Boggle at that, Lupin.]
redjacketthief: (it came out...?)

XD

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-03-01 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
George Lucas, the director and creator of these films. Old, wierd guy. Actually took a lot of inspiration cinematically from the films by Akira Kurosawa.

...how do you not know that?
semper_cogitans: (:|)

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-03-01 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
Because... I am f-from more than th-three hundred years in the f-future... [Robert says this very flatly, as if it's not a huge deal but still an obvious thing.]

...

Terra... d-does not often research pre-Terran history, and... [Most Terrans honestly don't care about it. That apathy is something Robert is trying to shake off.]

... W-Well, suffice it to say th-that... most of this information is... new to m-me.
redjacketthief: @ starkxravingxmad (smirk-- twisted)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-03-01 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
[It sounds a little like Smoker's world, the lack of historical knowledge, but for different reasons. It bothers Lupin no less--how can people not want to know?]

...I dig info, Robbie. If you ever get curious about something, I probably know it or can find it.

We can get you into more marathons too. How does James Bond sound? Spy thrillers.
semper_cogitans: (:|a)

[personal profile] semper_cogitans 2012-03-01 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, in all fairness, Robert at least is trying to learn. But there's a very long list of reasons - facetious or not - that Terrans have for not wanting to know.]

... Ah... I a-appreciate it, Mr. Lupin... [Robert shifts in place a little, trying to consider this new information.]

... Spy th-thrillers...? [He repeats the phrase again, confused. What exactly does that mean? He knows what a spy is, but...]
redjacketthief: (tell me this is a joke!)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-03-01 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
Action packed, suspenseful movies that deal with spies.

[beat.]

Yeah. We are so having a Bond night sometime.

... If... if you w-wish... [Personally, Robert's not sure if he likes "action-packed". That tends to be synonymous with "lots of dangerous and frightening things happening", to him...]

... Are they... also p-popular movies, in... your t-time...?
redjacketthief: (is this what I think it is?)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-03-05 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Though the question throws Lupin off, he reminds himself that Robert did make it plain that he didn't understand people, and was from a completely different time and place...

He reminds himself to be patient.]


Saying that they're popular is an understatement. It's hard to find someone who hasn't seen them, where I'm from.

Ah... so, it is s-something like the scientific a-articles of my world... [A popular, commonly-accepted thing that everybody wants to see.

...

Yes, science articles as entertainment. Popular entertainment, at that.]
