Completing the Lightsaber

Bonzo knocks on the door to Dooku's room, and when Dooku invites him in, he enters.

"Master, I have all of the components in place in my lightsaber. Would you care to look over it?"

Dooku nods, and extends a hand, and Bonzo carefully places the crystal-free lightsaber in his hand. He examines it for a few minutes, both visually and through the Force, and visually, looking at various components. "Very nice. Very well done."

Bonzo nods, and Dooku looks at him.

"Remember, this is not a toy, Bonzo. This point was driven home to me by Master Yoda when I got my first lightsaber."

Pause.

"Realize that I am not making you a Jedi now. As I said before, your training is by no means complete, though I will say that this stage is. You have...at least as far as someone who is not Force-sensitive could, I believe, passed this trial."

With that, Dooku turns to a box sitting on the dresser in his room, opens it, withdraws a crystal, and inserts it very carefully into the lightsaber. Then, he closes the opening that allowed him to insert the crystal, and charges it for a few moments with...the Force or whatever is behind charging it. Then, he hands it to Bonzo, and gestures for him to point it away from anything.

Bonzo complies, and flips the power switch, and a blade the color of the summer sky emerges. After looking at the blade (and after both he and Dooku are satisfied that ignition of the blade will not, in fact, burn down the Bar or blow it up), he turns it off. "Thank you, Master."

"Remember what I said...this is not a toy, it is a tool and a weapon. Use it only if no other option will work."

Bonzo nods, and Dooku smiles at him. "Congratulations on this, Padawan. I am going to encourage you to consider training with a remote similar to what Ray has been doing, but I will leave that decision up to you."

There is a brief pause, and Dooku finally wraps up.

"Be careful. Use your training lightsaber when attempting variations on your form, when experimenting with your form, or when sparring. The two are...extremely similar, and I do not want you to unnecessarily or unintentionally injure yourself or anybody else."

Bonzo nods in assent, and Dooku smiles. "Whether or not the wars that concern you come, I know that you will make the right decision."

"Thank you, Master. I will not disappoint you."

Dooku smiles, and then seems to remember something else. "I have something else for you, Bonzo." He walks over to the closet in the room, and withdraws a set of robes very much similar to Obi-Wan's in Episode II or Qui-Gon's in the image of him and Dooku on Wookiepedia (or Dooku and Yoda).

Bonzo looks somewhat shocked by the gift, and he bows his head, accepting the gift quite gratefully. "Thank you, Master."

"It is only appropriate, padawan. I think you will find that they fit quite well, and they do not have quite the...image that the ones you said the Bar gave you for Halloween carry."

Bonzo smiles at that last comment, and excuses himself. You could say that he's somewhat excited about this...he definitely is.

OOM: Bonzo and Petra, shortly following the meeting w/Dooku

Bonzo has been sitting in his room, meditating some. He's in his new robes, which he couldn't wait to put on (then again, to be perfectly realistic, would you if you were in his position?), and the new lightsaber is attached to his belt. He also looks decidedly like he's had a haircut, which he probably has had recently.

And then, after meditating for some time, his legs get a bit sore, so he takes a walk.
