Getting to Know Your Own Backyard | Monday, Period 2
Class had been handwavily informed that they would be meeting each week at the junkyard instead of a classroom. You're...welcome?
When they got there, they'd find Hera and Kanan waiting, with the Ghost prepped and ready to go right behind them.
"Hey, guys," Kanan said, giving a casual little wave of one hand at the group assembled. "Welcome to a little class I like to think of as yet another shameless excuse to go on field trips every week. Only, these ones are probably going to involve less food than the last ones."
Sorry, guys. Hannibal wasn't in on this round.
"My name's Hera, and I'm the captain for these trips," she said. "This is my ship, the Ghost. I'm pretty new around here, so I'm still learning about the local area."
"The planet and the solar system both," Kanan added, grinning faintly. "For those of you who don't already know me, I'm Kanan. I have been around a while, but since my last ship was a big piece of scrap," seriously, nobody missed the Expedient, "I haven't gotten much farther than the moon here, myself. Cute moon, by the way. Bouncy."
"We don't have star maps of this galaxy, and the locals haven't gotten far off the planet," Hera said, "so that's what we'll be doing - checking out the local system. And taking some readings to figure out what's beyond it, but that'll be all the sensors, so no need to worry about that part."
"If there are any planets that are safe to get off the ship and explore, we'll try to do that whenever we can," Kanan added, grinning. "Which... might not be often, but the Ghost here will give us a great view all the same."
They wouldn't even have the great 'reality whipping by' effect that hyperspace offered, though. They weren't even leaving this system!
Earth: Still cute.
"There's just a few ground rules before we get going," Hera said. "I've locked off the personal areas of the ship, and I expect you to respect that. If I tell you to do something, you do it - I'm the captain, and I intend to keep us all safe. And whatever you do, don't bother the droid."
"No, really," Kanan added, "don't bother the droid. He takes his job seriously and he's got a stunner built-in and set to 'annoying.'"
That was just for you, Kanan. He kept that setting for you.
"Okay, so let's all get on board!" Hera said more cheerfully. "We can do introductions on our way to the first planet, which is named Mercury."
