Flat Robotic Voice: (ala speech-to-text) Do Jedi protect people or would you let innocent people get hurt for some idea of "greater good"?

Kanan Jarrus: Protecting innocents is the greater good. That's what we're called to do, as Jedi. The Force has granted us these gifts, these abilities. In my world, Force-sensitives can do things other people can't. And so it's our job to protect those who can't protect themselves.

Robotic Voice: Anti-Jedi. Would you protect people with your life, or would you let them die for some "greater good"?

General Grievous: It is not my duty to protect the people of Earth yet you will condemn me for not sacrificing myself for just any cause.

Someone needs to educate the Kaleesh.

[functusofficio]

He is angry, and determined. I am trying to speak to him about things but I do not think it will happen.

The old wars from our world will seep through.

[notayoungman]

Maybe you'll have better luck with his commanding officer.

[functusofficio]

Dooku?

No, it seems he has Grievous on a leash.

[notayoungman]

It's never the dog you reason with.

[generalgrievous]

You will leave my people out of this.

[notayoungman]

You're the only one here.

[generalgrievous]

[Of course he misunderstood and jumped on the comment impulsively; protective of his people.]

So you were referring only to myself? It...

[He trails off as if confused for a moment. He's so used to people calling him a droid or similar that to hear somebody refer to his original species was temporarily disorienting to the cyborg.]

[notayoungman]

It's the face you wore to deliver your propaganda.

[generalgrievous]

It... It is my true face.

[Or mask, technically, since nobody has yet seen his actual face. The Kaleesh tended to more often than not wear masks and their faces were rarely seen.]

And it was merely the truth.

[notayoungman]

Have you ever questioned what you thought was the truth?

[generalgrievous]

I lived through this truth.

[notayoungman]

What you experience isn't always the full truth.

[generalgrievous]

It is enough to know that the Jedi are misguided and reckless and needlessly put worlds in danger without proper investigation into all the facts.

[notayoungman]

No. It's not. Who put the Jedi in positions they were not trained for?

[generalgrievous]

If you are referring to the Clone Wars and their status as Generals then that was many years after they ruined Kalee.

But to answer your question, it was most likely that Chancellor Palpatine was resonsible for their military promotions. He is the leader of the corrupt Republic.

Or it was their Jedi council's decision.

[notayoungman]

You frequently bring up these Clone Wars as proof of how evil they are.

[generalgrievous]

It is a current galaxy-wide conflict, so of course it is the most recent proof.

[notayoungman]

But you aren't willing to discuss it.

[generalgrievous]

I have answered your questions. What else did you deem necessary to know?

[notayoungman]

Not about what I need to know. This is about you.

[generalgrievous]

For what purpose?
