Question for the class.

[The thing about building a swoop bike is that you need a decent space to work in, and to build and stock up a workshop you need supplies, and when the supplies are whatever scrap you can rustle up... well, if there's anything Revan likes, it's a challenge.]

[The feed shows a grimy, very dusty Jedi, sitting on... imagine someone took a motorcycle, stripped it down to its bare essentials, ditched the wheels, and screwed on a couple of flimsy-looking stabilizer foils for good measure. Even in this stripped-down state, it's clearly missing many vital parts. Like an engine. Won't be running any time soon. Revan has an... introspective expression on her face. Looks like she's pulled an all-nighter at the med bay.]


Let's say you've done some nasty stuff in the past. Back when you were young and stupid and thought you were going to change the world. And it... only recently hit you how bad things really got.

Not specifying what, exactly; what counts as "bad"'s gonna be different wherever you come from.

Now, my question is, what do you do about that?

Change. Take what you did and never forget it, remind yourself of it every day and resolve, every day, never to do it again.

Have you at least said you were sorry?

[Clearly he is the most helpful.]

I don't see what the problem is. [Probably because he is young and stupid.]

[Marvelous doesn't say anything for a moment; he looks tired, but his expression is resolute when he does.]

You change it. You take what you ruined, and you fix it.

You realize you've done wrong, you take responsibility for what you've done wrong, and you make amends. If you cannot make amends, you move forward and you compensate. You change, you adapt, you become someone or something better. Above all else, dwelling on the past hardly gets you anywhere.

That's a good question. I'm not proud of a few of the things I've done, but I didn't really have a choice in the matter. It was do or die. Not sure if that helps you any.

[Blurr got supplies in his room, he grabbed many things from the Hardware store that magically appeared in the heaven a few weeks ago. She could mention that she needs those at some point.

Blurr stares at the motorcycle for a second and after making sure it's not a corpse of one of his people he seems to relax.]

You try to compensate it doing good things.

How bad? No, no, ignore that, doesn't matter, does it? [No usual bubbliness here, and this is far too personal for the Doctor to feel comfortable using a video feed, so she only gets his voice. This is, unfortunately, something the Doctor knows all about.] You just...go on. Do your best to make up for it. Try your hardest to never be that person again.

Hope one day you'll finally make up for it. [Or die trying. Sometimes especially die trying.] It's not easy. Some days are worse then others.
