Training Day (For X)

He sat, legs crossed, waiting. He had gotten good at waiting, at patience. It took time - ever so much time - but he had mastered it. Now he waited for someone who was...remarkable. A new presence in the Force.

Perhaps they would be a student, perhaps not. This was all by ear, all outside of the experience of any Jedi. He wondered what Rahn would say, or Luke. Even Jan's advice would have been most helpful. But, in the continuing story of his life, he was once again working without a net.

It would prove most interesting.

I understand.

[X's voice sounds heavy, of a weariness Kyle likely knows.]

"I fell, once. But I had friends, people to pull me back. Friendship, love...they'll save you, nurture you in the Force. Jealousy, well, that can lead to the dark side, but love? Love is redeeming."

Something the old Jedi had failed to realize, really. They had locked it away, made it forbidden and taboo, and turned the greatest strength of the Jedi into a weakness that Palpatine had exploited. Thankfully the Corellian Jedi had essentially just defied that. But then again, that was kind of what Corellians did.

Small wonder the Imps had always said that two Corellians together was a conspiracy, and three was a fight.

"Let the emotions of life fuel you, give you strength."

[To say that was a bit puzzling to X wasn't a stretch, but he simply nodded, genuinely filing away what Kyle had said.]

He smiled. "No comment on all that? No questioning of my fitness to teach?"

The light in his eyes was mischievous.

None at all. I don't know anything about this energy, but you do.

[He laughs gently, and it's almost like the chime of a small bell.]

I'm not exactly in a position to judge you.
