#sk-620

3 down, 9 more to goooo

A few days ago, I showed my friend [P, She/Her] pictures of the starcruiser characters and asked her to name them as part of a TikTok idea I had. The TikTok is now live over on @starcruiser_staycation, but the full transcript of our conversation was waaaay too good not to share!!!

So, for context: P has never seen a single Star Wars movie/tv show/anything from the universe, but she does know the basics. When I went on Starcruiser and was posting full coverage of it on my Instagram story, she “watched it obsessively”, but outside of that she has no other context for the story or who the characters are. She had not seen any of my tiktoks yet either.

So, without further ado!!! Her full responses are under the cut :D

3:26pm Croy has discovered the stormtroopers and gets them out. Someone warns him about SK being missing. We rejoin Lenka in the atrium and warn her that Croy is coming back up the turbolift. Croy arrives and the Loth Cat Crew distract him with their droids. Croy realizes that SK is missing. Lenka thanks us for our great work. 

3:26pm Datapad Message from Lenka - She confirms that SK is safe and Croy was unable to get most of the Resistance data he was looking for from them. She advises that I stay low frequency until later. 

4:21pm I watch Sandro and Ouannii’s spontaneous concert in the Atrium. He plays a song that he wrote for her. It’s very cute.

7:00pm I check in for Raithe’s bridge mission to obtain the coaxium from Hondo. We have some hiccups, but ultimately we’re successful. Lenka arrives at the end, shocked and upset at Raithe taking over the bridge, but once Raithe explains what we were doing, she relaxes. 

7:25pm I watch some of Gaya’s Acoustic set 

7:27pm I head down to the Lightsaber Training Pod for my meeting with the Saja, but I come across Sammie and Rey on the way there and stop to witness their conversation. Rey starts heading towards the pod, but she pulls some of us aside to ask if Sammie is trustworthy. A guest tells her no, referencing him turning Chewbacca in to Croy at the previous night’s dinner. I tell Rey that Sammie is, in fact, on the Resistance’s side. She’s not really sure who to believe, but she puts it aside for the moment. 

7:30pm I check in for my meeting with the Saja. Saja Nova (spelling?) and Rey unbox the crate, discovering that an old Jedi holocron inside. The holocron features a message from Jedi Master Yoda. The Holocron contains secrets about the Jedi and the Force. Rey and Saja Nova express the importance of keeping the Holocron safe and out of the wrong hands. Rey warns us that Kylo Ren is coming. 

7:44pm Datapad Message from Raithe - He thanks me for keeping Croy distracted and warns about a dangerous suitcase filled with Coaxium (I didn’t know what this meant at the moment)

7:46pm Datapad Message from Saja - They thank me for my help in obtaining the crate and remind me to protect the Holocron. 

7:46pm I return to the atrium to see a crowd of people hovering around Lenka. She has one of Gaya’s suitcases. She asks us to help her subtly take the suitcase over to Raithe. Raithe refuses to take the suitcase. Him and Lenka talk it through. Lenka leaves, but before she does, Raithe tells her to take care of herself, and makes sure we’re looking out for her as well. We help him take the suitcase over to Captain Keevan. Raithe leaves us to tell the Captain that the coaxium is in the suitcase and she flips. She tells us to get Raithe to come back. When he does, she tells him that he needs to be the one to deal with it, and scolds him for his issues with “commitment” and “follow through”. I realize I’m late for dinner and I leave. 

8:02pm Dinner at Crown of Corellia. Captain Keevan and Croy have a heated discussion about each others’ opposing views on the Resistance vs. the First Order. The Captain questions Croy’s (self-imposed) leadership. My Mom informs me that she helped Croy initiate a ship-wide shutdown, and it’s supposed to take place in a little over an hour. 

9:20pm Emergency alarms. Sammie enters the dining room and tells us to get to our muster stations immediately. The ship shutdown has begun. 

9:30pm Finale: Kylo Ren arrives onboard. Rey and Kylo fight. Rey is able to keep the holocron from Kylo and tricks him into leaving. Croy is ordered to kill everyone onboard but is thwarted by Sammie going undercover as a Stormtrooper, giving the rest of the crew the opportunity to take the other troopers’ guns. Power is restored to the ship. SK leaves with Rey. Fireworks go off out front of the bridge. I go to the bridge to watch. 

9:58pm Conversation with D3-09 - she asks me what I will remember most about the journey, and tells me that she’ll remember me the most. She thanks me for helping her so many times and also helping her to believe in herself. 

10:06pm I go to the Dessert Party at Crown of Corellia. Sandro and Ouannii give a goodbye performance. Raithe gives a heartfelt thank you to his supporters. 

10:23pm Datapad Message from Lenka - She informs me that SK is safe and thanks me again for helping to save them. She expresses that she’s happy we’ve become friends.
