[ There's something in his chest that swells a little. A bit of pride maybe. He doesn't know that he'll ever get the chance to be a proper teacher, have a proper padawan. But this feels a bit like it should. ]

When I was young my master would always tell me a teacher should fit a lesson to the student whenever possible. [ He laughs and rubs the back of his neck, looking vaguely embarrassed. ] I think that was his way of telling me I was a difficult student. He wasn't wrong though! On either counts.

[ He gives him a considering look and takes the crystals back after he's through examining them. He turns to his bench and starts fitting the pieces back together. ]

You're right too, it resonates with me because it's bonded with me. The crystal chooses the person, and you could say it becomes somewhat of another limb, or an extension of one. That's why even though there are a few other things in the galaxy that can produce a stable blade, kyber is the best. It fights with you, anticipates your movement, and can cover at least a few faults. Which is good when you're wielding a weapon that could lop of your own limb if you sneeze real good.

Master Tapal was very wise... Stern too but kind. Probably the best saberstaff wielder in the Order and I'm not just saying that because I was his student.

[ He laughs a little. He misses Master Tapal a lot. It used to hurt talking about him but in more recent times it's felt better. It's keeping his memory alive. ]

I wasn't going to but... I think it might be easier to experience a bit of what I'm talking about for yourself.

[ The hilt reassembled he twists it and it comes apart in two. He hands one half to Donnie. ]

Click the biggest button for ignition and keep it away from your face. It's in training mode so the most it'll do to you if it slips is sting you real good. But give it a coupe swipes, tell me what you feel.

[ The hilt itself weighs next to nothing, and a blade of light should weigh nothing at all... But to anyone not Cal when ignited it feels heavy, like there's something in it actively resisting. Not to the point where it can't be used, it just makes things more difficult. ]

Just uh, don't touch the intensity dial. Don't want a sneeze incident.

[ The thought of letting Donnie use it in full staff mode DID pass his mind but... well... Lasers on both sides just means double the chance of accidentally injuring yourself when you've got a weapon that is mildly uncooperative with anyone aside from it's usual wielder. ]

Magnets is a really good way of putting it. Doesn't resonate with you so it's pushing away. Now, imagine it's the opposite. That instead of feeling a resistance, it moves with you. It makes every strike feel faster, more accurate. It knows in a way what you want to do and works with you instead of against you.

[ He crosses his arms as he watches the turtle test it out. ]

I'm letting you try my saber. and telling this all to you because I think... I think you could potentially connect to kyber yourself. You can hear it, that means you could hear if one calls to you.

[ YOU CAN'T USE A LIGHTSABER AS A RAVE STICK! It is not a thought Cal has ever once thunk. ]

I think I know what you're talking about, they're called saber pikes. The Temple guards used to use them back home.

[ Cal just shrugs at the question. ]

From what I've seen different universes don't effect the elements. Iron is iron, mercury is mercury, rhodium is rhodium, silver is... you get the picture. Kyber crystals grow on the metal kyberite. It's quite obviously stands to reason that here kyberite is kyberite. It's probably just like my world where it's simply absurdly rare in quantities large enough to to be detected.
