Kip gives a grunt of greeting. He was not much for ranks and authority. Besides, Guy said what Kip would've wanted to say anyways.

Obviously disappointed that you can't offer any more leads as to why the Imperials have taken in interest in Bolygo, his face does light up at the sight of Eedha being led into the room by one of the heavily armed rebels.

"At least we can finally put this man's hard work to use." Hibl declares, welcoming the Rodian with hearty slap to the should.

"You have brought it with you, have you not?"
OOC:
Yep, Hibl is the Sullustan.

OOC:
I thought Kip took the device apart and hid it? Do we have it with us?
Jan 13, 2022 5:04 am
OOC:
I assumed that Kip took it apart, and Guy moved it around to a different location. So maybe the Rebels already picked up the different parts.
Jan 14, 2022 6:24 pm
OOC:
Well it would have made sense to have had it loaded into the secondary vehicle so we could bring it with us to the drop
Jan 14, 2022 8:08 pm
OOC:
It can really be where ever you want it. This was meant to be a chance to NOT provide it if for some reason you didn't want to. :-)
Jan 14, 2022 10:52 pm
OOC:
We can trade it for info, but they don't appear to have any info. So just hand it over I guess?
Jan 15, 2022 12:17 am
OOC:
Yeah, I can't think of a reason to withhold it. Besides, Kip now knows the schematics to the device, so he could make it again given the parts.

Hibl glances towards Utes who responds with a quick shrug.

"Did you not bring the device?" he asks once more.
Jan 18, 2022 6:35 pm
"Apologies, yes we have the device. AS long as it's okay with Eedha, we'll hand it over. Any chance it will give us insight to what the Empire is doing at 'The Site'?" Guy ask
Jan 18, 2022 8:22 pm
Eedha readily agrees with handing over the device to Utes. Once in her hands, the Twi'lek takes it back down the hallway from which she and Hibl entered moments before.

"It is our hope that the device, along with our interrogation of the prisoner, will in fact help reveal the Empire's plan here on Bolygo." Hibl responds.

"Even once we find out why they're here, we'll have to figure out a way to stop them, and build up enough of a presence here to do so. Any interest in joining up with the Alliance... full time?"
Jan 18, 2022 10:49 pm
Gurag grunts with a grin "Thought you'd never ask. I'm in" he glances to his companions to see what their reaction is to the offer.

"No thank you."

At his core, Kip simply was a mechanic who had enough of his shop being searched by yet another stormtrooper. If the Imperial presence in Falu left, then Kip would be happy to return to living an honest life, unhindered by any sort of overbearing authority. Just like the good ol' days. Even the mention of the Alliance planning to build its presence in Falu made Kip unhappy. If he could take his freedom with his own hands, he would.

"I've no interest in enlisting, but while our goals align, you have my skills at your disposal" Guy says, hoping this didn't turn into a pep rally.

Tayen wants to jump at the offer to join the alliance, but holds herself back to see what her companions say. Seems like a mix of feelings, so she decides there's no sense hiding her desires.

"If the Alliance will have me, I'm in."

OOC:
50/50 split! Resolve in character? If there's nothing more posted in the next day, Hibl will suggest alternatives.

"It's disappointing that you won't join us at this time." Hibl responds, clearly taken a bit aback by the team's unwillingness to join.

"Let us finish with our interrogation of the man you brought in and see what he knows. It won't be long before his disappearance starts to draw the attention of The Empire, so it's probably best to keep a bit of a low profile for the next few days."

The captain pauses for a moment.

"Any witnesses friendly to the Imps that might be able to identify you as the abductors?"

"I apologize for our reluctance, but we do have our own goals, and we've managed pretty good on our own thus far. Maybe we will reconsider when the Empire has finally left our home." Guy replies.

Seeing an opportunity to press his case Hibl quickly responds.

"Our mission here is two-fold. Determine why The Empire has such a sudden interest in a planet that offers no obvious strategic advantage and then to remove them! I'm sure our goals intersect. With training and resources provided by the Alliance we can help each other meet our goals; but you would have to join, at least until the threat to Bolygo has been removed."

Fearing he may be pushing a little too hard he backtracks a bit.

"We will still provide what support we can if you choose to act independently. I just ask that you let us know if you're planning something so that we don't step on each others toes."

"That aside, there were a couple of mercenaries Gen hired. We ran them over, but they're probably still alive."
