[Video] First Rebellion - To Both Courts

[borntorebel]

[Pissed would be an understatement for what it is that Leia Organa currently feels. But, a lifetime of training and lack of visible irritants leaves her at least looking calm. She's been here long enough to have watched the goings-on through the strange little lockets and her quiet observations to get a feel for the place, mostly. And she feels confident enough to address the other residents of the strange world.]

I would like to thank our hosts for the lovely accommodations and food. Also, the change of clothes left in the closet of my new room fit perfectly.

[If sarcasm was an Olympic sport, Leia would win gold every time.]

However, the minor detail of being taken against my will to fight in a war I understand nothing about against others in a similar situation as myself hardly sits well with me. And from what I can tell from my observations, many others feel the same way. Sitting here and berating the rulers of both courts seems like a true waste of time, and so does demanding that I be returned to my own world, despite what important things I am needed for.

If you think that I will just lay down and accept this as a permanent situation, you are sadly mistaken. I won't fight for your cause because you think I must. I will fight against this form of...slavery with every drop of blood in my body.

To those like-minded, know that I will ally with you, no matter what "court" you happen to be a member of at present.

I have some experience in leading a rebellion back home, though I am hardly the only one. And my only "cause" here is to get myself and anyone else interested back to our own worlds. I don't want to overthrow anyone or to fight at all. I just want to—

[Rescue her boyfriend and kiss his face off.]

—return to my own affairs.

I've heard of the Station as well. It seems the most ideal for any conversations that are of questionable nature.

That's all I've even wanted. To be left to my own affairs. It seems we might be on the same pages after all.

I'm not making plans yet to travel to the Station, but keep in touch if you're planning on being near there yourself. I'll do anything to get out of fighting someone else's war.

I think we will both be surprised to know how many people actually are on the same page as you and I are. I doubt any are...foolhardy enough to follow my example, however.

I will contact you should I be near there. Again, it was nice to meet a like-minded person, no matter where or how.

All you really need are a couple of fools willing to go along with a plan. So long as it's a good plan.

We'll talk later. For now, knowing that there are like minds is enough.
