[He clinks his shot glass against Lando's, and then tosses it back. The burn of the alcohol in his throat gets him to cough a little, but otherwise it's not a half-bad start to the night.]
Yeah, little problem thereโhe doesn't remember it. It's like the whole day was just wiped from his head.

[ Lando gives Han a surprised look, then downs his own shot. ]
Well that's... certainly throwing a wrinkle into things. You think someone messed with his memories? Who could do something like that, to a Jedi of all people.
And they're great at it. Thought everything through. They even covered for the convenient resurrection, and the best theory I've got is that whoever they were, they were an imPort. Or at least they knew imPorts pretty damn well, if they could cover for that part.
[Which isn't helpful considering the sheer number of them. He presses his fingers to his temples, rubbing absently.]
That, and it's been too long since we had one. Figured I'd take out two mynocks in one shot.
It would have to be an imPort. I don't know of any native-- or group of natives-- that could do what you're talking about. Especially to a Jedi like Kenobi.
[ He takes his drink and sips it, thinking. ]
Do you think they'll strike again? There are more Jedi here, after all.
[He lives next to Luke. He can keep an eye on him, on Leia, on Kylo, if he has to.]
But I don't think so. Kenobi's a police officerโmight be he saw something he shouldn't have. If that's the case, soon as he's gone from the picture, the killer doesn't have to go after any other Jedi. [A cold, cold comfort, considering how much of a threat this unknown killer is.] But I wouldn't put it past them to do it again. To anyone, not just a Jedi, who manages to get in their way.
[Considering how often their galaxy's baggage seems to spill all over the network? He'll give it a few days and be pleasantly surprised when it lasts longer than that.]
Yeah? I've been here almost a year, every time I think this mudball can't surprise me anymore, there's something else that happens just to prove me wrong.
'S'probably even worse now, because you can't just shoot 'em and be done with it either. It's always one thing or another keeping you from pulling the trigger.
[And he tosses his own drink back, because damn, does he really need it.]
And meanwhile they're gonna keep dragging up our galaxy's mess onto everyone's comms, and next thing you know everyone's got an opinion and they feel like sharing it. Even the ones who've only seen, what, holos from another universe? [A snort.] Like that makes them experts. Shavit.
It's definitely easier to get away with shooting people when there's a war involved.
[ Lando leans in at the mention of the holos. ] You ever seen one of these holovids they keep talking about? I'd be interested to see what they really say about us.
[ Especially after that Emily Goldfinch called him out on betraying Han. ]

Well, hopefully now he's back, he can shed some light on the subject.
To the nanites, I guess. And death being just an inconvenience.

[He shakes his head.]
But something's fishy about this. It's justโit's convenient. And weirdly specific too. That's not even bringing the Jedi thing in.
I wonderโwhoever it was, sure as hell they weren't acting alone.

[ This is messed up. More of a headache than Lando particularly wants to deal with, that's for sure. He shrugs. ]
Well. I can see why you wanted a drink.

[ Keep an eye on Luke, and Leia. And Kylo, while they're at it.

So much for it being a vacation from the war against the Empire.
