Arani smiles at the blank screen for a moment. Then she yawns, suddenly realizing how tired she is. Still, with nearly half the crew still at the gym and Set off who-knows-where, she realizes she can't go to bed yet.
"Efficient as always. Thank you, Deel, that gives us a good place to start. I think that's all we needed - anything we can do for you?"
Arani turns to Valara. "Rodia is the home system of Kelko's species. Between Kel and the Holonet, we should be able to find out what the . . . " She...
It's pretty much inevitable that once we get started on theme songs, talk will inevitably turn to The Star Wars Iconic Love Theme.

"Thanks!" Arani turns to Valara. "There you have it. Deel can find out anything. I've learned not to ask how he does it."
ooc: And go on, Set! Kick his butt!
Just wondering if anyone's interested in a pbp game of Farscape, and if so, if they'd be more interested in Farscape straight out of the book, or Farscape using the Star Wars classes. (Just the classes, mind you; no Luxans on Tatooine.)
I haven't read the story in years, but from what I remember I think you're spot on. I'll have to track down a copy and re-read it. One reason why I love playing Arani so much is that she draws from such a different set of influences than any other character I've ever played. Jane Austen, E.M...
"Will do. Sounds like she'll be happy for the rest of her life, which'll give her a good week or so of happiness. More than many people get."

"A question and a request. The prey for the hunt - is the selection limited to local animals, or do they import dangerous species from around...
"The prey and rules of the hunt are supposed to be announced when we get there. I don't know what they've hunted in the past, either, but I know who can find out."
Arani fetches her comm-link, and puts in the right code.
"Deel? Hope we're not interrupting anything. Valara and I have a few...

Arani frowns. "I wish I had something wise to say to reassure you. but I don't. I'm pretty new at this 'love' business myself. I don't think Set's the kind of man to let a little kick to the face keep him from what he wants, but I don't know. I've known Set for a while now, but I've...
"I'm no warrior, Valara. But it sounds to me like Set was careless, and you weren't. It's not your fault."
Arani sets her datapad aside for the moment.
"You've learned quite a lot since we first met you, Val. From me, from Sia-Lan, from Set. But never forget that you have a great deal to...
The door to the suite opens, and Arani strolls in. She looks around the room. Kaz and Kel still in one peace, Dorn keeping the peace, and Valara reclining in the comfy chair, apparently freshly bathed.
She crosses directly over to Dorn, stands behind him, and puts her arms around his...
Arani leaves the gym, waving goodbye to Sen and Emtee but being careful not to distract the fighters, then she makes her way back to the suite, half-humming half-singing snatches of an operetta she recently attended back in Theed.
"He's okay? Good." Arani looks at the soldier and Wookiee. "I think those two will be fine as well. They're big boys. So if you'll excuse me, Ithink I'll go back to the suite. I haven't seen Dorn for a good ten minutes."
"We'll see what happens - I'm kind of new at this myself, you know. But I plan to hold on to this for as long as I can.
And thanks for your help, both past and future."
