The gand looks to the others one by one before returning to face Garnell Fel.

drone, mumble-drone clickety "The Void Refresher has excellent," whirr click "atmosphere?" he proposes after the slightest pause. She's already in motion -- not directly towards the devaronian, but to the side with a sweeping, polite invite towards the spaceport's exit...?

<If he goes for it:
jumble high-hum guttural clack jumble click "Tell this humble one about yourself, Garnell Fel?"

 

[GreenKarl]

The devaronian scowls for a second but then shrugs his shoulders. "As you wish" he says. Then looking for the group allied outside he says "I would prefer I speak with all of the owners of the ship at once. What I have to discuss is for you all and rather important. You seem to be missing a few... crew?"

 

[Shayuri]

"That didn't bother you before," says Kacela, descending the ramp at a sedate walking pace. Her tone is light, even a little teasing, "You weren't just trying to get me alone were you?"

 

[Sezarious]

Jihahna giggled momentarily at Kacela's last comment. The Jedi's sudden flirtatious sense of humour was unexpected.

The Devaronian had already revealed his short fuse. Humour would frustrate him. Cause him to be more likely to slip up, or to end the farce prematurely despite whatever he had planned.

This was clearly not going to end well, but there was no rush as each side was trying to extract as much information out of the other as possible.

But what to say in response to the Devanorian about Cal's location, Jihahna didn't know. Clearly, they wanted to be the ones with the eyes whilst their enemy voluntarily make themselves blind.

But instead of pointing out the obvious, Jihahna decided that the best defense, might be offence. She thought she'd add to Kacela's comment, just a little.

She hoped Kacela might push further after this, maybe use some of her skills in diplomacy to take it further. She perked up in her smoothest voice possible.

"That's pretty game buddy. You haven't even taken her out for a drink..."

Cal remained in position, his carbine training back and forth from the devaronian to the ship the chiss entered. Using his commlink, he contacted the rest of the team. "Following your lead. If you want me to stay here and watch the ship now that we're pretty sure the rest of his crew is sharing a berth in our dock, I'm good with that. Just keep a commlink connection open so I can hear what his offer is."

Garnell chuckles at Kacela's comment, adding "Now my dear if you remember I said I wanted to speak with the captain of this fine vehicle and you mentioned that you were a part owner. I simply wish to speak with all the owners at once so that I don't have to repeat myself and to assure there are no miscommunication or misunderstandings for all parties involved. Now after our business is concluded and who wish to be alone with me..." his devilish grin grows even wider "...I am sure we can make some arrangement."

Glancing at Jihahna he nods and says "Drinks and food would of course be offered my dear lady. Garnell Fel is not an ungracious gentlemen..."

Looking at everyone, his smile still plastered onto his face he continues "So again, might I have a word with all of the owners of this fine ship, where ever you would prefer to meet? I am sure we can resolve our business in a timely manner."

clicketty drone slurr jumble hum "There will be no miscommunication," kindly reassures the gand, nodding polite appreciation for the devarionian's concern... mumble-slur hum jumble click "Would now be convenient to Garnell Fel?"

And as, by now, all of them here are moving towards the spaceport exit <correct me>, Garnell Fel's choices are either to follow, or be left standing at the foot of the Outlaw's empty ramp...

 

[Shayuri]

"You could always come inside," Kacela points out, indicating the ship itself. "No need to go hunting around for a quiet spot outside."

 

[Binder Fred]

The gand stops, silently gesturing 'no, no, neck cut' to the blue twi'lek from behind their 'guest'.


OOC: Well this should be fun

Escorting Garnell inside, the group heads for the lounge. When everyone is sitting or situated as they wish he smiles to everyone and then beings his speech "Gentlemen and Ladies, I am a humble servant of a very successful entrepreneur and businessman by the name of Jericho Melstrum. He has financial interests in multiple endeavors within the Quelli Sector, being a proud native of the region. He has also been a leading the Republic's efforts to rebuilding the damage done by the Great Galactic War that has so devastated this sector..."

Pausing for a second he sits a little straighter before continuing "Now while Mr. Melstrum is working so hard for the betterment of all sentients of the sector and being engaged within the sector's politics, he often has to deal with the less savory elements within it also. He has had to make deals that the Republic might frown on in most situation, but with so much destruction and hardship caused by the war, he has had little choice. One cannot make the universe a better place by ignoring the darker parts of society. Would you not agree?" he added looking at Kacela.

"And so we come to the situation that has brought me here today" he continues without waiting for an answer. "My benefactor had entrusted a package to be delivered to a certain shadowy interested party on the understanding that said party would provide 'protection' for Mr. Melstrum's interests on Axxila. You must understand that Axxila has suffered greatly during the recent conflict with the Sith Empire and large section of the great world city are in desperate need of repair. As such, Mr. Melstrum made a deal with one of the principle criminal elements of the region, a crimelord by the name of Gotan the Hutt."

"Of course Mr. Melstrum would prefer not to deal with such beings, but the reality of the situation is that he needed the criminals to leave his rebuilding efforts alone and this first... payment, was to assure this. Unfortunately, Mr. Melstrum entrusted the... former captain of the Outlaw Gambit with this important delivery. And as you all well know he decided to make a side trip here in attempting to hijack various transports here to secure high value minerals."

"Mr. Melstrum is uninterested in this endeavor nor was he privy to it prior to Captain Gomak's actions here. Now, Mr. Melstrum simply wishes that the Outlaw Gambit fulfill its obligations of deliver the shipment to Gotan the Hutt on Axxila. I am sure that you have discovered the 'cargo' in questions already and would be more then willing to complete said task so that Mr. Melstrum can continue rebuilding without criminal interference. Can I count on you?"

GM: Up to your if Kacela is allowing herself to be mind linked with Jor, its totally fine with me either way. Also, you can have a com open for Cal so that he could follow the conversion. He is still watching the ship where the chriss female went into but there appears to be no actions from there. C4 has reported no additional scans of the ship where he is monitoring from the bridge. Outside Jor has seen or sensed no one paying any unusual attention to the ship either. Of course the 'cargo' in question is the Spice. Someone read over the Captain's logs after you first captured the ship and it mentioned that he was suppose to deliver the Spice to the Hutt but it also implied that it was in payment for some information that the Hutt had provided, not 'protection money'. Its up to you whether you believe Garnell, although if you want to check you can make an Insight check against him.
