Holding their lives in his pudgy, misshapen, hermaphroditic hands, the hutt's altamatum hung in her mind. However, it didn't make sense.You're threatening our lives, she thinks to herself, without having disarmed us, without even searching us! Tal has a repeating blaster, and he could blast your head off if he chose to. And you're threatening us? No, you have something up your sleeve that makes us impotent. I just have no idea what it is. Either that, or you're a bigger bluffer than you are an eater!"Your greatness," she starts, her voice  soft and humble, yet loud enough to be easily heard, "Surely ones who have so impressed you should not be cast aside so lightly. It seems clear to me that we could be of use to you, and that killing us would be a waste in addition to upsetting to your guests."She glances at Tal, her expression calm but worry showing in her eyes. Her gaze falls to his blaster and back up to his eyes, lingering for a brief moment before returning to the hutt."I'm confident that there is something we could do to earn your trust and esteem, great Torrba. I don't suspect that you mistrust us any more than any prospective employee on this world, and we have more to offer you than most of them."I don't believe that we have seen anything you have not wished us to, and we haven't wandered your property. I know you are above showing us your secrets merely as an excuse to kill us, and we have not seen anyting that could threaten you."That said, I don't believe that you truely intend to have us killed, your greatness. If you did, I'm sure you would have forced us to relinquish our weapons. Mr. Remar here would not be pleased to be anything's food, and you have not yet placed him in a position from which he can do nothing to prevent it from happening."Taking a deep breath, she continues."What can we do to prove to you that we are trustworthy? I'm sure you would find the services we could perform more useful than the nutrition we could provide to your pet."OOC: Diplomacy +7, and making copious use of it. Ambrus, I'm hoping you're right about Torrba!</blockquote>
