Seems somebody is missing a weapon.

[In his hand, Cad Bane has what will be recognisable to some as Obi-Wan Kenobi's lightsaber. He turns it on, confirming it as such with its blue beam of light; gives it a small twirl and looks pleased.]

It might be handy. If nobody comes forward to claim it, maybe I'll just keep it.

[Since someone is monitoring the networks, new and information Highways here, she sees this pretty fast, and snarls. Natural form and all.]

That does not belong to you. Where did you get it?

[cadbane]

[He's distracted by her sudden appearance.]

When did you arrive here? You look... different. Older?

[Still, she's recognisable enough.]

Can't say I'm pleased to see you.

[vanto]

Someone just forgot their lightsaber?

Eli. Do not get involved with this.

[cadbane]

Perhaps. I just found it lying around. Unattended.

You should delete this immediately.

Unless you want to die at the hand of Darth Vader.

Who?

[After his time, sorry, Ren.]

I just found it. Anyone who says it's theirs has to prove it.

Listen, for your own good, you might want to tell the first person who's gonna ask you where you got that exactly where you got it. [Han has definitely seen better days—he's tired and haggard, and there's a deeply annoyed look in his eye. This again? Come on.]

[video]

[cadbane]

I found it.

[He shrugs.]

Maybe it's worth something if I sell it.

[curiosityvoyage]

[Yeah, was this post supposed to be threatening?]

Oh my god. [This is coming from a kid with a mop of curls and bright eyes.] Is that a lightsaber? Where'd you pick that up?

[video]

[cadbane]

[It's more about just blatantly showing what he's got.]

I found it just lying around.

[As if that was an everyday occurrence. Nothing suspicious here at all...]

You impressed, kid?

[Video]

[faithfulson]

Where did you find that?

[ Luke is tired, stressed, and in no mood for games, and it shows in the fact that he practically growled that question. ]

[Video]

[cadbane]

It was by the side of a road. I picked it up. Were you looking for one?

[carbonfrozen]

got something for you

[And here is an audio recording, straight from Cad Bane's mouth, of the descriptions of landmarks that, unbeknownst to Han, are leading to a murder scene. Accompanying the recording is some directions to the likeliest place where the lightsaber was found.]

need backup?

[ Has the network heard her Old Naboo accent yet? They haven't. Those few who remember her from that time might recognize the way her tone shifts to something entirely different from those who know her otherwise. ]

I know you and your practices, Cad Bane. Do not pretend to be unaware of what it is that you have, or how rare it is in this place. You hold either the last remembrance of someone who has been taken away by this Porter, or you hold evidence to a murder.

It would be advisable either way to relinquish it immediately to authorities.

[Video] Sorry, Padme.

[cadbane]

So you think that the owner has been murdered?

[momchester]

You’re not slick.

If you’re trying to get away with it- you’re screwed.

[cadbane]

Get away with what exactly, little lady?

[itcanwait]

Hey uhm Cad?

I'm seeing a lot of people really angry over this and over other stuff that's way too confusing for me to follow properly, but maybe you should give it to someone that knows what it is.

I don't want you to get hurt or anything and it's kinda daft to play dumb right now.

Video

[cadbane]

You think they'd do something foolish here and go after me?

[All part of the plan, but he has to feign some ignorance here.]

[aberrant_type]

Well, well, look at all this excitement.

[She barely saw the weapon Anakin flashed in his own post, but... this is certainly suspicious, and the reaction of everyone else commenting more or less clinches it.]

You seem like you're courting vengeance.

[cadbane]

That's on their heads. They decide where to put their vengeance.

[He doesn't seem worried about it.]

[notayoungman]

Always knew you were up to no good.

[cadbane]

You don't believe in people finding lost property?

[onlydoubts]

This seems unwise.

[ even if he had nothing to do with the weapon and owner being parted, flinging it around like that in front of everyone? probably bad. ]

[cadbane]

Maybe you're not so good with negotiations.

[He signed on for this dangerous task. That people seem to think him a fool for it plays right into his plans.]
