Off On The Rim

[Thomas Hobbes]

"It's all in good fun," says Daos, still without much inflection but a small, predatory smile at Korin. "And a fleet may or may not have helped. The whole death star thing apparently was vulnerable only to snubfighters. Somehow. Bet some poor Imperial Engineer is having the time of his life explaining that one." Daos laughs a short, nasty laugh.

"Must've been a helluva fight, though. Takes a lot of guts to go head-on with something the size of a small planet."

Rytt didn't spend much time around the others. He didn't like them, he didn't like their incessant prattling interupting the background noises of the natural inhabitants of his home. He didn't like being on the ship much, but, the Prince had offered a fine sum to both protect and help his daughter. The Twi-lek sighed as he heard the other's grumblings, he would make no such pointless noise.
Rytt turned to the console that had been assigned to him and continued checking the readouts it reeled off.....

"Has a lot to do with why they died, isn't it?"

"Yup. Why argue with someone bigger than yourself if they'll just knock you around? You have to be prepared and capable of defending yourself if you want your way. You either need to knock them back or get someone to do it for you. Negotiation is nice and all, but it won't work all the time," Kluurz says.

"Must've been a helluva fight, though. Takes a lot of guts to go head-on with something the size of a small planet."

Kluurz sits back and smiles, nodding in agreement.

"Guts that a lot of them put on visual display. They took a major gamble, and if they hadn't won, we'd be calling them foolhardy, not brave. I guess that's the difference, then, isn't it?"

Looking up from his list Talon replies, "Brave? Maybe. Foolhardy? Yes, with out a doubt. They’re lucky to have won the battle but I hope they fear the repercussions. The emperor doesn’t take to kindly to thorns in his side."

"I hear they've scattered throughout the Galaxy. Trying to stay low until they can escape the Emperor's eyes. Don't know if it'll work."

"I doubt the empire can run them all down so I imagine a few will escape the emperor’s wraith."

The intercom flared to life as a soft silky voice reverberated throughout the starship. A musical quality lingered in its depths, the sweet silvery tone of youth now deepened into the sultry tones of womanhood that evoked not visions of starry nights but of much more primal ones.

Every syllable rolled luxuriously in her throat, all of which still carried over the intercom as Princess Kai Tsang addressed no one in particular and yet left everyone feeling as if she meant the message personally for them.

"Bring me my coffee."

The snap of fingers echoed pointedly.

Then silence.

Talon Darkstrider: Human/Male (Scoundrel/Soldier)

Talon rolls his eyes in silent contempt unsure rather or not to speak of it will bring the Princess' “loving” attention down upon him and the others while he silently thinks to himself, Speaking of wrath… before he continues his thoughts out loud, “I’ll go, I need to let her know of my plans for the repairs.”

With that he grabs her a cup of coffee prepared how ever she likes it, or usually likes it, and his notes and heads for her lair.

Lance also stands, moving towards the coffeepot. Checking the level, he mutters "As I thought. The last cup." He begins brewing up a fresh pot.
