The Star Wars Iconic Characters and the Lords of the Expanse: Hunting Grounds...

[Arani Korden]

"You look beautiful this morning, Arani. I'm sorry if I'm a little late. Waking up to a kiss from you...well, that's an experience to savor. So I took my time getting ready."

"Well I'm glad you're up now. I thought I was supposed to be the fussy dresser."

Kissing her hand lightly, Dorn escorts Arani back over to the assembled group. Eyeing the droid, Dorn lifts a brow and grins.

"What's this? We rate our very own astromech now? We really are moving up in the world..."

"You betcha. Next thing you know, we'll all have our own theme songs."

 

[Vor'en Kurn]

"Well? Everyone ready for some stellar fun today?"

Vor'en twitches once, spasmodically. If I have to hang around her too long, my teeth will rot he thinks mournfully. He turns his back on her and faces Roworr.

"If I can, I'll use this," he says, hefting his rifle. "Sporting rifles have better accuracy over range, but I consider myself a good enough shot to hit at any reasonable distance. Besides, civilian models tend to deal less well with rough treatment. Not sure if they're allowing military hardware on this picnic, though.

"Truth be told, I don't like hunting much- blowing away some poor herbivores from half a klick away has never seemed very fair to me." He shrugs. "Who knows, maybe they'll give us something dangerous. Even if they do, though, we have guns and they don't."

Edit:

"You betcha. Next thing you know, we'll all have our own theme songs."

*appreciative snicker*

 

[Sia-Lan Wezz]

Sia-Lan grins with a hint of a sparkle in one blue eye. "As long as I get my hoverboard - I'm the happiest padawan for the next four sectors," she affirms and then winks at Kaz-Lo and Kelko. "And as long as those two help me make it even more Sia-tastic!"

"Not that I'm all that excited to be slaughtering creatures today, but can we get to the ship so I can get my hands on my new toy?" Not really waiting for a consensus, the young woman headed out the door, a little bounce in her step. "Come on! Adventure...and more importantly...food awaits!"

 

[Set Harth]

Set silently walks up to Valara and put his arm around her waist listening, yet not really listening to the surounding coversations.

 

[Valara]

Valara rewards Set with a smile as he slides his hand around her waist, he didn't seem quite so indecisive as last night, and that pleased Valara a great deal. She rose up onto the balls of her feet to kiss him soundly, not really caring much about what the others might think. It seemed so silly to do things as Dorn and Arani had, life was about joy, and by hiding what they wanted, they almost might not have found each other, besides, it was good to share hapiness with others, if its hidden it might lead to the relationship becoming a twisted and unhappy thing.

She took Set by the hand leading him to the couch wheree they could sit and wait for breakfast to be served. She shoved him down into a sitting positin and lay herself down with the back of her head resting lightly on his thigh, idly playing with her still un-braided hair.

 

[Arani Korden]

"Let's not get ahead of ourselves, folks. As I recall, yesterday Deel said . . .

"With the juiced up hot-rod Lady Agatha has provided for your use, you should be able to reach Vycinyth in two or three days... The hyperlanes in the sector are atrocious due to all the interstellar rubble from the nebula, you know... The preliminary feast and ball of the Vor-Cal will take place four days from now, and the hunt begins the morning after, so I can confidently say that one of you will be firing a blaster or equivalent weapon five days hence."

. . . So no hunting today. And the ball comes before the hunt."

 

[Deel Surool]

"Let's not get ahead of ourselves, folks. As I recall, yesterday Deel said . . .

. . . So no hunting today. And the ball comes before the hunt."

"My dear, you are nearly as wonderful as you think I am," Deel compliments.

"Not that I'm all that excited to be slaughtering creatures today, but can we get to the ship so I can get my hands on my new toy?" Not really waiting for a consensus, the young woman headed out the door, a little bounce in her step. "Come on! Adventure...and more importantly...food awaits!"

The bounding Jedi nearly bowls over a servitor droid that had just arrived outside the front door with the room service Deel had just ordered. Buzzing a reprimand at Sia-Lan, the SE4 droid pushes a small repusor cart into the room. He removes a silvered dome from a tray to reveal a platter of cold-cut meats, cheeses, sliced fruits and bread. An assortment of butters, jams and honeys are set aside. And an array of carafes contain spring water, milk, fruit juice and coffiene.

"More importantly", Deel announces, "food arrives! Now eat up, so you can be on your way. We can't have you traveling on empty stomachs."

"Ah, Valara, I'd almost forgotten." Deel pulls a long narrow case out from inside his frock coat, and hands it to Valara. "You'd asked for this... It's not quite really a true lightsaber, but near enough that you won't yet know the difference when you practice with it."

 

[Arani Korden]

"My dear, you are nearly as wonderful as you think I am," Deel compliments.

"I try. Did I get the voice right?"

Arani finds a nice, comfortable spot where she can sit next to Dorn, puts together a nice sandwich, and grabs a glass of fruit juice.

 

[Sen Udo-Mal]

Sen will find seat and close his eyes in thanks for a second before serving himself. He glances at Set and Valara and raises an eyebrow Now when did that happen? Hmm I wonder, but then it is not my right to question another jedi, especially as I am only a Padawan, but I fear for those two...

 

[Kelko]

"Hey, Bate," Kelko greets the little droid before it leaves. "I'm Kelko. I have a feeling we'll get along just fine." He looks back at Rorworr, and nods. "Yeah, I'll guess I'll take the bowcaster," he decides, and sets about stowing it away for use. At Deel's insistence that weapons will be provided, the Rodian simply shrugs. "I like to be prepared, you know? Never know when some scum-sucking pirates'll ambush you." Hey, a little healthy paranoia never killed anyone.

But he's starting to get cabin fever cooped up inside this hotel, so he heads off after Bate and Sia-Lan, hefting his back onto his back with an 'Oof'. "Wait up Sia-Lan, I want to get a look at your new board!" He calls as he dashes after the jedi.
