Valara frowns at her Beau's disparaging of her new weapon, surely he could see how important a thing it was to her, even if it wasn't perfect. She lets the hurt that his comments caused her show on her face for a moment, before standing away from him.
"We should get go to the ship soon if we have to leave." she says not looking him in the face. She takes two of her leather her thongs from her belt pouch and ties the saber to her bare thigh across from the blaster to even her out. She disapears for a moment into her room to retrieve her clothes for the ball, and on her way back through the suite a bottle of fruit juice and a handful of pastries float over to her as she exits.
She ate as she walked to the hanger, using the time for a breathing exercise Sen had showed her when she commented on his always seeming calm. Breath in to a count of 4, hold it for 8 beats, and then breath out to a count of 7. With each deep breath that she let out, some of her irritation and hurt faded, leaving her with nothing but the sensation of warmth in her stomach from the deliscious pastries.
She had almost walked past the hanger in her pre-occupation, but she caught herself, though she couldn't help but stare at the sleek beauty of their new ship. It looked fast just sitting there. She didn't have the love for inanimate things that the others did, and she didn't understand why it always seemed like Kaz wanted to get intimate with some bit of machinery or other, but she did know that this was a thing of beauty. She slowly circled the ship to examine it from all sides to truly know it. Having admired it enough, she went aboard to stow her scant belongings.
