These scars of mine [open]
WHO: Rey, Padawan, and open
WHAT: going through the paces in Kirkwall
WHEN: Throughout Justinian
WHERE: The Gallows, Lowtown,
NOTES: if you would like a custom starter, hmu on plurk or discord!
1.
Just because Obi-Wan is gone, doesn't mean that Rey's training ends. She's spent some time speaking with mages, having learned about "Force Magic" she is studying what she can of it, to see if that helps with her learning at all. The execution seems somewhat different, but she studies it all the same, with a few books spread out in front of her in the Gallows library, her crumpled translation cheat sheet next to her even though she's gotten better at reading the words by sight, some still trip her up from time-to time.
Padawan is asleep behind her chair, a solid presence which has become comforting, much like the lightsabers weighing on her belt and the staff leaning up against the table next to her.
2.
Something that is new for Rey is the second lightsaber she now has to practice with. Obi-Wan had left his behind, and it seemed like that was for a reason. However, she'd only just been learning how to fight with one lightsaber, so two-handed was a bit of a challenge. Often she can be seen out in the courtyard training area, both lightsabers ignited as she tries to adapt what Obi-Wan had taught her into two-handed combat.
The result is she falls a lot, and drops the lightsaber in her left hand more often than not. To her credit every time she falls she gets back up, and every time she drops her weapon she retrieves it, and tries again, shifting her stance or holding the blade differently.
Padawan sits on the sidelines, watching with interest, but keeping her distance. She knows those blades are nothing to get up close and personal with, and anyone who approaches will get a white mabari in their face, making sure they aren't a threat to her charge.

Walking through the Lowtown markets is almost like the Niima outpost, except more warm and welcoming. Not everyone seems happy to be there, but for the most part there isn't the amount of suffering she used to see on Jakku. People have enough food and water, they have mostly adequate shelter. They are able to sell things for money rather than trade them for food. Maybe they're saving up for better lives, or they could very well spend it all on food. Either way, they have those choices.
Rey is on a mission today, looking for clothing. Her few outfits are getting worn, and she has enough coin to buy something new, so she is looking through what the Tailor has on offer, not really looking for a custom-made item. She's been hemming her own clothes most of her life, she doesn't mind taking in something that might not fit perfectly.

"I- no. It's been a while. I let people know over the crystals, but I'm still meeting people that he knew." She pauses, thinking for a moment before adding. "Though if you know anything about mabari, I'm open to advice. His mabari has sort of ended up in my care." Or she'd ended up in Padawan's care, was probably more accurate. It was a wonder the dog wasn't with her in the market today, but that was mostly because Rey hadn't been sure how welcome a war dog was here.
