[ In typical Ahsoka fashion, Ahsoka's done her best to look professional for the holovid video, and sits intently up straight, and smiles. ]

Hello! I don't think I've introduced myself to everyone yet, but I'm Ahsoka Tano. It's nice to meet all of you. Everyone I've met so far has been incredibly kind, and I hope everyone who I've yet to meet is as well.

I'm still not sure yet what I'm going to do about this farming business, it's...it's not usually my best skill, but! I can offer something else instead, which would be guided meditation sessions. This place has a lot of serene, quiet spots that would be perfect for beginners, and I think we all could benefit from quieting our minds a little. Especially if you're here on vacation.

They're free, I'm not accepting payment, just, uh. Maybe a few friends, or some advice on how to grow some of these weird vegetables you have here.

[ True enough, Ahsoka's outside on the many paths leading around the towns and to the forests, yet not quite in there yet. She wants to start a hike, maybe go exploring, but didn't think it was wise just yet, not without a group. Still, the parts she does find that are quiet are easily her favorite, like down by ponds or near the ocean. In fact, the pier has to be her favorite so far. Hanging her legs off of the side, and facing the sky while lying down? It made her think of the galaxy, and how small she really was inside it. And sometimes, her mind drifted towards the time skips, the time lines, and the other fuckery unexplained events so far that had led everyone here. She wanted to investigate it, but didn't know where to start. So maybe catch her in deep thought about that, or meditation as well. Making sense of this place has been kind of number one on her to do list so far. ]

[This place is full of serene, quiet places. This place does allow for an incredibly quiet mind, in a brand new way that has nothing to do with exhaustion.

But Horatio has no genuine idea in the world what "guided meditation" could possibly be, so he skips over it to the thing he probably knows like the back of his hand.]

What sort of vegetables?

Oh, you are absolutely beautiful. [Aurora has met non-human creatures before, she lived with them, obviously. But she's never seen anyone like Ashoka and she's absolutely stunning. Of course, Aurora thinks the other is a mythical being more than something from another world.]

And that is very kind of you to offer.

[ Chisa, on the other hand, has a kerchief tied around her head since she'd been taking a break from cleaning, which means that her little furry ears are hidden from view. She smiles back automatically, brightly, though it takes her a moment to parse what's being said... hm. ]

Meditation, huh... I can't say I've ever tried anything like that! But I've learned a thing or two about gardening. And I like friends!

[ She can't offer her hand like this, so she gives a little wave instead, her smile going from the automatic Service Friendly to something more genuine. ]

I'm Yukizome. Nice to meet you!

Plo does not often check the communications network - rarely, in fact, and too rarely to hope to keep up with everything. It is...better, to keep his focus on what is in front of him. Plo Koon has never had a hermit's nature, but still he spends more time quiet now than he once did. And so it is that he is entirely unsuspecting as he walks down to the water today, fishing gear in hand, with no plan more complicated than the need to pull up an extra fish or two before his supply of meat runs out.

It is not what he sees with his eyes that makes his footsteps suddenly slow. What is there to see? Many come down to the long stretch of sand when the weather is warm, and in that moment he only sees a group of people he does not know passing by.

Behind them. He stops.

They pass and there she is, legs hanging over the edge of the boards, as though it were all the most ordinary thing in the world. If Plo were not a Jedi...but he is, of course, and has always been, down to his whole heart and his bones, and yet even so he finds that words will not form in his throat.

(She had chosen not to see them. What else could he do, but accept it?)

Guided meditation sounds really cool. I don't really have anything I can offer in return though.

[Angel gives Ahsoka a wave. She's pretty used to all kinds of alien creatures, and she looks a bit otherworldly herself with her tattoos snaking up the whole left side of her body, so she's just here to make friends.]

I think it'd be really peaceful by the ocean...
