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.

No, he only fought him. That doesn't help you get to know a person. Heck, even studying a person for decades and putting a tracking chip in their heads will only tell you what they do, not why they do it.

And I don't think he's right to blame all Jedi. Or all Hux for that matter. But you can't just tell someone they're wrong, you have to lay the evidence out where they'll find it and let them come to the conclusion on their own.

[ Oh boy. He could lecture for days on how much you can tell about a person. Especially an enemy. Too bad he's a man of few words these days. ]

This isn't about proving him wrong.

Then what's the point of this? Getting him riled up all over again?

[notayoungman]

So you can report it back to him?

[drivesadesk]

You make it sound like I'm his minion.

[notayoungman]

Close enough.

[drivesadesk]

I'm not. I just don't think endlessly needling and poking at someone's post-war PTSD is really going to make anyone safer, and I don't want their old war to get a brutal reenactment here.

[notayoungman]

You're blind.

[drivesadesk]

I'm not, I just...when I was at my first swear in, things went wrong. He protected me when I was covered in bite wounds. I know this vendetta thing is bad, but I know there has to be a good side to him, too.

[notayoungman]

You're part of the problem.

[drivesadesk]

I'm part of the problem? You're the one keeping him on task! With your 'hey, Grievous, remember the Jedi? They're totally here, and so much cooler than you' posts.

You know, in my world, my species invaded Earth 200 years ago, and humans still haven't noticed. Mostly because we kept them distracted. Now, I'm not saying to distract Grievous with downloadable games and attempts at seduction, mostly because he keeps sticking to his cyborg form and I think the claws would just frustrate him more, and I don't know if he's into the whole interspecies thing, but I am saying that if people divert his attention away from the Jedi for long enough, he'll forget about them.
