As always, justice in the Porter cities is a poor joke.
I have been observing him, yes. His behaviour has certainly been concerning. Yet I would not expect the OTO to have made an alliance with him. They seem to be an organization that prizes their secrecy very highly. And if there is one thing Anakin Skywalker is incapable of in any universe, it is subtlety.
The government doesn't care in the least. They have access to our network and yet I've never seen their reaction to posts about imPorts claiming to murder natives.
What do you think it'd happen if I approached him?
I am convinced that it is in their interest for such crimes to continue. They can use imPort violence as an excuse to maintain control of us using the nanites and other methods.
Approaching him could be dangerous. He is volatile, and his power is great. He could even be a match for you, Kaneki.
[And Dooku has a fairly good idea of how strong Kaneki is. Vader may well be stronger.]
Maybe. But we have done a lot of extremely violent things - Lucifer tried to open a portal to hell once, we have the fear Gas by Crane; this in itself would be plenty of justification.
I understand that, but our research on him has gone no where. We have been hacking him, we found silly things about it, but nothing out of the ordinary. Approaching him is a bit of our last resource at this point.
He has powers similar to my own, even without the weapon. He can move matter with his mind. 'Darth Vader' is a title he has earned. A sign of how very strong he has become.
It is not like any power you have encountered before. To be strong in the Force is to be able to bend matter to your will. Skywalker could throw you into the air with a wave of his hand.
[There's hesitation before the response is sent because guess what Dooku's single biggest weakness as a Force user is? It's the fact that he's a man in his 80s who is getting much too old for this.]
It is possible. Like most other forms of activity, using the Force can be exhausting after too long a time.
[ the amazing thing that ghouls have: they don't get too old for this. Their human-like body may look frail, but christ almighty, their ghoul power grows with years. So this is actually something Kaneki is not familiar with ]

[Pause.]
What kind of silly things did you find, precisely?
[Please let it be something embarrassing to Skywalker.]

Date: 2017-07-30 07:03 pm (UTC)From:Energy sword? Does it cut through anything? [ would he cut through his kagune? kaneki just doesn't know
and sorry, Dooku. Nothing too embarrassing. ]
Well, he appears to be a daredevil. Also loves droids, and appears to be quite a good haggler, really.

Date: 2017-07-31 10:29 am (UTC)From:Those are things I already knew. His true secrets must be buried deeper.
[Because of course Dooku assumes he has them.]

Would someone get tired and be unable to use it? Like losing their stamina.

Thank you, Count.
