...of a few short hours. They could be planetside by breakfast, and hunting a Jedi before he ever had lunch! This was not what he signed up for. ~***~ Ryker rolled his eyes at her comment. “Just doing what I said. We’re here. You can stay in this room or you can help unload. Your call.” He...

...was no doubt outfitted for long stays. Still, he would await any additional direction before letting Thrawn tend to any other business he had. ~***~ Lorelei, no surname. That was for the best, though he supposed she also might not have one. That was generally unlikely among humans...

...last, “I’ll trust that you understand what we’re getting into, though.” What else could Eli do? “I’ll be ready when the negotiations are set.” ~***~ Ryker nodded, accepting the location. That made things easy for him. Mos Eisley was chaotic, but that was what made it a good port to dock...

...Not to mention, vastly undertrained for something like this. Had Octavia merely caught Thrawn off guard or had he planned it from the start? ~***~ “No,” Ryker stated flatly at her question, even though her wry grin suggested she was joking. He’d been betrayed too much to give people a false...

...of Thrawn's, but arriving together would certainly look better for all of them. “Is there anything else that you would like to discuss before?” ~***~ Ryker scoffed at her comment. “Unless you've pissed off the Emperor himself, I doubt it,” Tarkin was the only step down and Ryker had done...

...over?” It was a question – but Eli sensed more under the surface to it, and he wasn’t sure Thrawn would. It was a test. ‘Don’t give it to her.’ ~***~ Tatooine. Backwater enough. Sure, there was an Imperial presence, but not much of one. It was easy to move in and out of that planet thanks...

...the rest in conversation. “Do you have any wilderness survival skills, Grand Admiral?” She heard how he was found, but that didn't mean much. ~***~ Ryker took a few seconds to watch the stars become lines, to breathe. Lightspeed would be safe, but he couldn't really relax with an unknown...

...you.” Eli could not hide his bafflement if he tried. He wasn't sure this brief approval was a good thing, as Prince relaxed again with ease. ~***~ Ryker wasn't expecting any living resources, but the woman made a beeline for his ship, and hells, what was he supposed to do if she helped...

Bump!

Static from the speakers made Marshall wince, his nose wrinkling a bit in displeasure before the voice began to speak, introducing itself as Carl Adamson. He let his expression relax, even if he couldn’t settle into a cheered expression while listening to the speaker. “Well, you heard the man!”...

The food was no doubt cold by the time Hayate and Naomi returned to the ship, but that wasn’t much of a problem. They had reheaters for a reason, after all. He was jealous of Naomi’s ability to just touch Ananke and open it up, though, a jealousy he didn’t bother to hide. He knew why Naomi was...

...but he didn't know if things had changed with Octavia’s arrival. She didn't seem to be sending the nexu away, and Eli saw her ship closing up. ~***~ Ryker wanted to get off the planet with what he had. That would be a task but the smoke helped. He tapped an earpiece, “Hey, Ellie, it's...

‘Reynolds.’ Marshall acknowledged the woman as one of his companions on this trip, apparently the tech savvy one based on all she was planning to load up. He gave a nod at her request, “Good to meet you Marya. I’ll head into the Rig, but if you need help loading anything, just give a shout,” he...

I gotta answer because it amuses me Protag of the last show has "Save Point" powers, I'm watching Re:Zero. Last game I played was Elden Ring. I feel like this would be the epitome of just playing the game without ever leveling up xD I would indeed git gud. Thankfully the main character has...

...couldn’t be decorative. No, not Wilhuff – but he almost wanted Wilhuff if only because he started to understand the fear he felt around him. ~***~ “Bantha spit.” Ryker Blaesson cursed as his own ship docked only minutes after the Imperial ship, no doubt there for the doonium he planned to...

...“No? Well, let’s hurry, then, to the bazaar.” That’d be better than hopping shops, even if the street vendors were sometimes more expensive. ~***~ Vayne remained rather formal with Cidolfus, something that Liraz couldn’t help but notice, given the contrast in Cid’s easy informality. She...

...she left her food behind, and wasn’t really anticipating eating it. Even if the other two were probably bringing it, and Arien’s meal. ~***~ Naomi may as well have been speaking Aramaic for how much Hayate understood. He tried not to stare at her blankly, but he was sure his inability to...

Bump!

...released.” He finished the curry quick, and pushed his plate forward to signal he was done, too. “Anything you need to nab while we’re here?” ~***~ There was no threat as the pair walked back to the ship. No complications. No conversation. Ancasta finished her tascrose before they reached...

"You need hobbies, Adrienne. You won’t think about eating people if you’re distracted." Marshall wasn’t exactly wrong, but the frustration at the poor, dying african violet did make Adrienne Edom wonder if it was even worth pursuing this particular hobby, or any other hobby, of late. The pink...
