Two. (Open to All)

It had taken time, but Obi-Wan had become familiar enough with the holodeck to create a program for the room. Of course, as a first attempt, it was a far cry from some of the programs he’d seen. There were no characters, no costumes or props, but it suited his needs nonetheless.

It was a perfect recreation of one of the numerous training rooms within the Jedi Temple, or at least as perfect as he could make it from memory. The walls were smooth metal, curved and fitted as though they were part of some seamless, organic whole. Familiar tapestries adorned the walls, displaying the tenets of the Jedi Code, and the hard, tile floor bore the symbol of the Order in a ruddy, red stone.

There were a few details he couldn’t fill in of course. The room was the right size, but it didn’t feel quite as … open, as the genuine article. That, and the symbol on the floor was the wrong shade. Too light, or too dark, though for the life of him he couldn’t remember which. But it was close enough. Close enough that, for a moment, it felt like he was home.

It was a welcome change of pace.

While everyone else was busy preparing for the holidays, Obi-Wan could be found in his tranquil recreation of home. The sapphire-blue blade of his lightsaber was lit for the first time since he'd arrived. Despite his lack of practice, he showed no signs of rust as he flowed with practiced ease from one stance to the next.

Let me know if this makes sense, combat-wise?

“Well there’s no accounting for your lack of observational skills,” she teases. He spins onto his heel and she darts forward, taking advantage of the given opening. Or feinting like she is, anyway. She’s less impatient than that.

Hoping that continues because I fail at fight scenes. LOVE 'em but fuck writing them is frustrating.

Oh, she was going to be plenty aggressive; she just refused to take his bait. It wouldn’t do to be too predictable; someone needed to keep him on his toes, after all. And she did need to work on her patience. Might as well try a bit of that now.

She lets him knock her blade aside and drops under the long sweeping strike he swings at her before rising up and blocking the slash of his blade, violet blade humming against blue. She can’t help but give him a crooked smile through their crossed blades, before moving to shove him back and following it with a sweeping slash.
