Myn Donos: -=heading towards Downtime wondering if the usual group
will be there=-
Hobbie Klivian: Hobbie, much less antisocial than
he had been, was seated in downtime having a cup of caf while looking over
a datapad. A silverish ring bearing an imbedded pearl, rested on his left
hand.
Myn Donos: -=walks in finding Hobbie at a table and grins=-
Myn Donos: Wow...thought that Feni and I would have to label your
office as your natural habitat
Hobbie Klivian: "Things change."
Myn Donos: -=sits down=- True, very true.
:Reilin Darklighter::she entered *downtime wearing her black
jumpsuit, ziped down enough to allow for her sleeves to be tied around
her waist a white T-shirt, and her small id tags around a chain hanging
from her neck::
: ::she looked around as she walked toward the
bar::
Hobbie Klivian: Hobbie was seated in the corner looking
at a datapad, a silve ring with an imbedded pearl glinting on his left
hand as he waved it in absent conversation with Myn.
Hobbie Klivian: -=Hobbie brought a security cam clip
up and pointed to the figures moving on it, =- See there, Myn? It's like
she tried to talk Durron out of it.
Myn Donos: -=sighs=- How do you know that she wasn't undercover?
Or that she knew beforehand what Kyp was up to?
Hobbie Klivian: If she was undercover, he would probably
have sensed it. He was all ready to kill her there, Myn.
Myn Donos: How do you know that she didn't block him?
Reilin Darklighter: ::grabs some
whyskey and looks around, as she tucks a loose strand of hair from her
braide behind her ear...
spotting Myn and Hobbie she heads toward them with her drink::
Hobbie Klivian: Amanda wasn't a jedi, Myn - corran
would have sensed that sort of thing, I think.
:Reilin Darklighter hey guys...
whats up? ::sensing and noting the serious faces..::
Myn Donos: Hi...-=looks back at Hobbie=- You don't have to be a Jedi
to conceal your powers or even potentially block someone.
Hobbie Klivian: -=shakes his head=- From what I've
learned fromLuke, though, Kyp's real powerful. If Amanda was a goodguy,
he would've spared her.
Reilin Darklighter: ::she sat
down next to Hobbie, and looked at him remembering his past with Amanda::
Myn Donos: How do you know that that sith spirit guy wasn't in control
at that point?
Reilin Darklighter: ::debated
asking what was going on or what had happened::
Hobbie Klivian: "How do you know he was?
Myn Donos: How do you Hobbie?
Hobbie Klivian: -=Hobbie played the clip from the
security cam again. Two figures ran down a hall, a masked jedi confronted
them. the blonde male pulled the black-haired female just out of the way,
she losing her eye in the process, before the ma
:Reilin Darklighter ::she took
a sip of her whyskey and looked at them::
Hobbie Klivian: le stunned the jedi, picked up the
woman, and ran from sight=-
Hobbie Klivian: -=he paused it again and shook his
head=- I don't know anything anymore.
Reilin Darklighter: was that Amanda?
Hobbie Klivian: -=Hobbie looked to Reilin=- Yes.
:Reilin Darklighter who where
the other two? ::she looked up from the clip::
Myn Donos: -=glances at Hobbie inquisitively=-
Hobbie Klivian: I don't know who the blonde man with
her is, but the jedi's... well, they called hiim "masked vigilante" on the
news - he went on a killing spree last week, this was his first set - an
Imperial resistance cell.
Myn Donos: And we're debating whether Doc's gone Imp...
Hobbie Klivian: I believe she has. -=points at the
holo=-
Myn Donos: -=sighs=- And I'm using her past and says that she hasn't.
Hobbie Klivian: What do you think?
Myn Donos: When you put it like that, it makes it look like she's
gone Imp in a flash.
Hobbie Klivian: It's been a year, Myn. You yourself
know a lot can happen in a year.
Myn Donos: Yes, but not too many people defect these days, and you
said it yourself, she's ex Intel.
Hobbie Klivian: Who was completely and unerringly
humiliated, -=he pointed out=-
Myn Donos: How?
Hobbie Klivian: Did you not see the security holo
from when she left?
Myn Donos: No, where do these holos keep popping up from anyways?
Hobbie Klivian: Oh, that one Fel got for me back
when she first disappeared.
Hobbie Klivian: Basically, Cracken stripped her of
rank and pretty well banished her from the new republic.
Myn Donos: That's even harsh for Cracken, how do you know it wasn't
some sort of act?
Hobbie Klivian: how do you know it was?
Myn Donos: Well I can't tell if I haven't seen that holo...
Hobbie Klivian: Hobbie keyed a few controls in his
datapad, then set it on the table.
: ::she looked back up from staring at her drink,
coming out of her lost memories::
Reilin Darklighter: ::she looked
back up from staring at her drink, coming out of her lost memories::
Hobbie
Klivian: ::"Now,
get OUT of my offices, Anreson. I don't want to see you even TRYING to
work for the New Republic in any way, or I will PERSONALLY have you drawn
and quartered!"
Hobbie Klivian: Cracken finished yelling at her as
he tore the last of her insignia from her uniform."I'm taking Wiley with
me," she said contemptuously.
Hobbie Klivian: "He is New Republic property. You
are to bring him back to the starfighter bay when you leave," he said distainfully.
Hobbie Klivian: "He's already there, Airen," she
frowned."Leave him there, and don't call me that."
Hobbie Klivian: "I'm not a member of the New Republic
anymore, *Airen*, remember? I can call you whatever in the nineth Corellian
hell I want to!" She shouted as she scowled and left the room.
Hobbie Klivian: ::
Hobbie Klivian: See? -=hobbie said, leaning back=-
Myn Donos: -=grins=- Pretty dramatic if you ask me...
Reilin Darklighter: :: whistles::
Hobbie Klivian: A dishonourable discharge usually
is.
Reilin Darklighter: why was she
discharged in the first place?
Hobbie Klivian: Fel spoke with intel, and they said
that she was... -=he scanned through the notes he had on the subject=-
Myn Donos: Even for Cracken, even if it was a dishonorable discharge,
that was still dramatic, Cracken's normally sneakier than that.
Hobbie Klivian: Insubordination, failure to comply
with regulations, going awol on nearly every intel mission she's ever done
:Reilin Darklighter ::takes a
sip of her whyskey, looks up at Hobs::
: are you serious?
Hobbie Klivian: That's what Intel told Fel, yes.
Myn Donos: But, how often can you really trust Intel? There is always
somthing going on behind the scenes.
:Reilin Darklighter yes... and
Fel is know for his rash conclusions and views of people
Hobbie Klivian: I was there when he spoke to them
- he didn't sugarcoat it.
Myn Donos: But still the source that it came from...
:Reilin Darklighter he never does...
Hobbie Klivian: Was intelligence themselves
:Reilin Darklighter ::a frown
came across her face:: How long ago was this?
Myn Donos: Year or so.
Hobbie Klivian: And imagine, a year later, she's seen
as part of an imperial resistance cell.
:Reilin Darklighter well what
do you expect from her ? I mean she's not one to sit at home and do nothing
: we all know Amanda...
: and Cracken has always been pig headed...
Hobbie Klivian: Knew.
Hobbie Klivian: true.
:Reilin Darklighter knew?
Kar Drem: ::Drem strolls quietly into downtime. Sees
a couple of those pilots that he usually hangs around with and heads toward
them::
Hobbie Klivian: but still - turning imperial? -=he
shiik hos head=-
:Reilin Darklighter turning imperial?
::looks at Hobbie:: what do you mean
Kar Drem: hello. ::soft-spoken and quiet::
Myn Donos: I think she's change but not that much...
Reilin Darklighter: Imperial resistance
cell.. like against the imps right?
Hobbie Klivian: Hobbie smiled, looking up at Kar=-
Have a seat!
:Reilin Darklighter and what do
you mean knew...
Hobbie Klivian: No, like the imps against us.
Reilin Darklighter: ::looks at
Hobbie a bit shocked.. then nods to drem::
: not.. Amanda..
Kar Drem: kay... ::he sits down, wondering why they
drink alcohol all the time::
Hobbie Klivian: -=Hobbie tapped the datapad with his
ringed left hand=- According to this, she's gone imperial.
Hobbie
Klivian: -=hobbie's
not alcohol, he's got caf=-
Myn Donos: And knowing that guy with her, there is no way.
Hobbie Klivian: Do you?
Myn Donos: -=soft drink type caf here=-
:Reilin Darklighter ::know that
there is something she;s missing::
: I can't believe she's gone imp... i mean its
Amanda...
Myn Donos: If, it's Ton's son, there is no way that he'd go Imp.
:Reilin Darklighter Ton's son?...
Hobbie Klivian: Just cause he looks like Phanan doesn't
mean anything. You heard what Feni said about Jake and Tycho.
Reilin Darklighter: ::blinks::
ok I'm out of the loop...
Kar Drem: ::sees the woman on the datavid, is taken
aback for a moment; she looked like someone he knew from Toprawa, and before
that for that matter...::
Kar Drem: who is that? ::points at the holovid::
Reilin Darklighter: ::looks at
Drem, then to the holovid::
Hobbie Klivian: Amanda Anreson.
Reilin Darklighter: do you know
her?
Myn Donos: Yeah, but all you need to know for certain would be to
spend five minutes with him...and I'm mostly certain that there are no
Ton impersonators out there.
Hobbie Klivian: -=shakes his head=- I'd like to believe
you, really I would....
:Reilin Darklighter I do... Amanda
would never.. especially after what they did to Ton...
Kar Drem: ::looks at the vid for a moment and then answers::
No. She just looked like someone I knew
Reilin Darklighter: if she's turned
its because she was a plan..
Myn Donos: Right
Reilin Darklighter: ::looks at
Drem:: really well why don;t you tell us..
Myn Donos: And when Feni and I went out chasing Kyp that day I didn't
believe that he was in control and only reacting on emotions.
Kar Drem: I'd... rather not. ::Nosy b**** isn't she...::
Reilin Darklighter: ::grins noting
Drem's tone::
: its alright.. its just that she's a very dear
friend to us.. she was a formal pilot and she might be in trouble...
Myn Donos: Might? Is in trouble.
Hobbie Klivian: -=poits to the holo=- She lost her
left eye, and has a scar down that side of her face - she won't be easy
to hide with a scar like that.
:Reilin Darklighter alright ...is
in trouble... we're just trying to it all out...
: ::sighs::
Kar Drem: She looks angry in the vid ::observation::
Kar Drem: and who's Ton?
Hobbie Klivian: Yeha, she's trying to save her life!
Reilin Darklighter: if you think
that you might know her... just tell us... if you want her.. it might help...
Hobbie Klivian: -=plays the vid again=-
Reilin Darklighter: ::glances
at Hobbie::
: ::takes a sip to of her whyskey letting the
drink burn down her throat::
Hobbie Klivian: ::Two figures run down the hall, a
blonde man and black haired woman. they're stopped by a lightsabre bearing
masked man, who takes a swing down at the woman as the blonde man pulls
her away, then stunns the lightsabre man before pi
Hobbie Klivian: cking up the unconscious woman and
running::
Reilin Darklighter: wait.. so
its Ton and Amanda... running stopped by Kip..
: ::analises to make sure she undestood::
: ... and Ton takes out the lightsaber? and
stuns Ton?
Hobbie Klivian: Amanda and some blonde guy.
Myn Donos: No Ton's dead.
Reilin Darklighter: some blonde
guy...
Hobbie Klivian: lightsabre takes out Amanda.
Reilin Darklighter: ok Ton's son
is the assumption?
Hobbie Klivian: blonde guy stuns lightsabre man.
Hobbie Klivian: Only by Myn.
Myn Donos: It looks like someone who is closely related to Ton at
least.
Hobbie Klivian: -=shakes his head frustratingly=-
:Reilin Darklighter ::confused::
: wow... now I'm confused
Kar Drem: ::thoroughly confused but tries to listen
anyway::
Hobbie Klivian: And Amanda, and the blonde guy, were
part of an imperial cell that was under attacked by that masked lightsabre
guy.
Reilin Darklighter: ok do a run
by run play...
: ::hits the replay in slowmotion on the datavid::
Hobbie Klivian: --Amanda and blonde guy running down
a hallway. They are lifted in the air and the guy hits a wall while she's
thrown to the floor before a lightsabre weilder wearing a cloak and full
face mask----
:Reilin Darklighter ::hits pause::
: ok how do we know its Kyp?
Myn Donos: Among the group of people of the imperial resistance cell
Hobbie Klivian: -=looks at myn=-
:Reilin Darklighter ::looks at
Myn::
Myn Donos: Kyp said so, he told myself and Feni
Hobbie Klivian: -=hits play=-
Hobbie Klivian: ----As the lightsabre comes down to
cleave Amanda in two, the blond tugs back on her shirt and the sabre only
slices down the left side of her face in stead of killing her.----
Reilin Darklighter: ok... he told
you but how do you know he's not covering for someone?
Hobbie Klivian: Stance, grey at the temples, black
cloak, violet lightsabre. All point to Kyp.
Myn Donos: And Feni and I could tell that he wasn't lying
Reilin Darklighter: hmm..
: ::looks at vid::
: there has to be something in the video we're
not seeing...
: have you shown it to Siee?
Hobbie Klivian: ----As Amanda falls unconscious, the
left side of her face blistered and smoking from the lightsabre gash, the
blonde rolls past her and uses a blaster to stun the lightsabre weilder.---
Hobbie Klivian: --weilder goes down unconscious while
the blonde guy picks up Amanda, and they run out of sight-----
Hobbie Klivian: Siee's off planet right now.
Reilin Darklighter: hmm..
: what about Luke?
Hobbie Klivian: Yavin.
Reilin Darklighter: maybe he can
tell us something we missed
: ::grins:: up for a trip?
Hobbie Klivian: "No."
:Reilin Darklighter ::looks down::
: rats
: ::takes another sip of the whyskey::
Hobbie Klivian: As far as I can tell, Kyp's gone too-
it's better not to try and figure out that part of thiungs. all I'm saying
is that Amanda's out there, she's dangerous, and we all need to be careful.
I intend on announcing something to that
Hobbie Klivian: fact next time I can get all the rogues
togheter.
Reilin Darklighter: she's not dangerous
Hobbie Klivian: Unless proven otherwise, Reilin, I
think she is.
Reilin Darklighter: ::looks down::
Myn Donos: Well I think it isn't safe either to try to find Doc.
Kar Drem: ::he looks at the video, trying to study the
faces and their other subtle actions to see if he can come up with anythign
to add::
Reilin Darklighter Doc? ... why
not
Kar Drem: ::he shrugs to himself and slouches back in
his seat::
Reilin Darklighter: yea..
Myn Donos: I think that Hobbie and I can agree that Doc has changed,
and it seems that we both can agree that it's not safe to try to find Doc
because of what we don't know, despite either one of our speculations.
Hobbie
Klivian: However,
I think this holo shows true and she really has turned. She DID say she
wanted nothing to do with the New Republic....
Reilin Darklighter: she was mad...
: emotions get in the way and people say things
they don't mean...
Hobbie Klivian: And go right to working in an Imp
cell? I don't believe it.
Fenig Durak: Hands that glistened from the after affects
of the heavy duty cleanser fiddled with the long braid that had come loose
through the day. S'what she gets for braiding her hair dry in the first
place. Turning into Downtime, Fen was a
Myn Donos: -=blinks at Hobbie=- She's a woman! She's skilled at
deception! And that she's ex-Intel means nothing to you?
Reilin Darklighter: after what they did to Ton... she'd do anything
to bring down the imps... you know this
Fenig Durak: bit surprised to see so many people, but
one must roll with the flow. Spotting Hobbie, she weaves through a few
tables before resting a newly freed hand on his hsoulder.
Kar Drem: Where did you guys get this vid? maybe i'll
try renting it on my freetime, when they give me the free time, anyway
Reilin Darklighter: ::grins:: Myn's right... on both counts
Hobbie Klivian: Adam got it for me, from Intel.
Reilin Darklighter: couldn't we send it to Luke?
: hey Fen...
Kar Drem: ... nevermind ::they didn't get it. he quites
down::
Hobbie Klivian: Looks up at Fen, and moves aside slightly
so she can slide in a chair beside him.
Fenig Durak: And slide a chair in she did. "Hey y'all.
What's the topic of conversation tonight?"
Hobbie Klivian: "We need a new topic, Fen. Have one?"
:Reilin Darklighter ::looks up at the hand that suddenly comes
out between her and Hobbs., then looks at Drem and smiles::
: I got it kid
Myn Donos: -=gives the new guy a curious look=-
Myn Donos: hmm, Who'd be uglier in drag, Papaltine, or Zsinj?
Fenig Durak: "Uhm...the colonization of eastern lands?
Oh, no that won't work. How about....I'm at a loss here."
Reilin Darklighter: hey kid... ::looks at Drem:: do you know where
Mike is> *?
Kar Drem: ::looks back at Rei:: maybe if you'd stop
calling me that I'd tell you.
Reilin Darklighter: ::chuckles:: sorry.., you
remind me of my kid brother
Hobbie Klivian: Kar, how's your leg healing?
Reilin Darklighter: thats why I call you kid... ::waits for him to answer Hobbie's question::
Kar Drem: it aches a little bit. i can still do what
I need to do. went jogging with the rest of my group today. it went pretty
well
Reilin Darklighter: thats good... so.. do you
know where Mike is, Kar?
Hobbie Klivian: :Hobbie nodded.:
Hobbie Klivian: Hobbie sighed and draped an arm around
Feni's shoulder.
Fenig Durak: She looked up at him curiously and leaned
a bit closer.
Reilin Darklighter: ::looks at Drem as she finished the rest of
her whyskey in one gulp::
Fenig Durak: Nudging Hobbie with her shoulder, she smiled
lightly, "How was your day?"
Hobbie Klivian: "Long... and hard. Yours, fen?"
Kar Drem: Actually, I do... ::he unslings his precision
rifle, working the action:: He's looking for his head at the gunnery range.
it might take awhile for him to find it
Myn Donos: -=sighs=- Do you really want a public?
Kar Drem: ::smiles sweetly ^_^::
Fenig Durak: "Fairly good. Nothing to complain about
really," she shrugged, though her mood was a bit too dim for having a good
day.
Reilin Darklighter: ::sighs and glares at him, with a slight grin::
what did you do...
Hobbie Klivian: Anything I can do?" -=asks feni quietkly=-
Fenig Durak: She nodded and mouthed 'Yeah, but not here.'
Myn Donos: -=mutters=- Not here, not here, not here, not here...
Hobbie Klivian: -=chuckles=-
Fenig Durak: What? She wanted to soak in a hot bath.
Reilin Darklighter: ::looks at Myn:: where gonna have to find
you a gf
Myn Donos: I think Kirney would have a problem with that...
Myn Donos: -=g=-
Reilin Darklighter: ::smiles:: I'm gonna go.. ::Stands and looks
down at Drem, with a grin:: and help Mike look for his head...
Mike Ngo: ... I'm pretty sure it's attached ::walking
in::
Reilin Darklighter: Mike!
Fenig Durak: Quirks a brow. "I dunno, loose kidna loose
to me."
Kar Drem: ::snaps his fingers:: dammit!
Reilin Darklighter: ::goes to him and gives him a big hug then
slaps him::
Hobbie Klivian: -=waves at Mike with his left hand,
ring glinting on his finger=- Hey mike.
Mike Ngo: ow! ::slapped:: what the heck!
Reilin Darklighter: you never called me back... after you came
back from patrol two nights ago!
Reilin Darklighter:: ::turns around arms crossed::
Myn Donos: -=grins=- Broke the first commandment of dating...
: ...
Fenig Durak: "Tsk tsk. SHame shame."
Kar Drem: well, seeing as the coolant leak on the landing
pad took away my ability to use my vocal cords for a day or so.........
Hobbie
Klivian: ::Hobbie
cleared his throat loudly::
Mike Ngo: what is that?? ::pointing at the foreign shiny-thing
on hobbie's finger while walking forward::
Hobbie Klivian: -=holds up his hand=- It's a ring.
Reilin Darklighter: ::glares at Mike::
Fenig Durak: Fen's lips twitch as she tries to hide her
smirk.
Reilin Darklighter: ::looks at Hobbie's ring and admires it::
Mike Ngo: ::stares at it in awe:: what the sith for??
Hobbie Klivian: -=straight faced=- Getting married.
Reilin Darklighter: well normally you wear a ring
Hobbie Klivian: -=it's a simple band with a pearl inlaid
on it=-
:Reiln Darklighter: ::looks at Hobbie:: Congrats!
Myn Donos: -=grins=-
Reilin Darklighter: ::smiles at Feni:: u too
Hobbie Klivian: -=cracks a smile then=- Thanks.
Fenig Durak: TWidles the fingers of her left hand. "Thanks."
:Reilin Darklighter: so now there are two weddings to plan...
Hobbie Klivian: No planning, wedding's done.
Fenig Durak: "Has been for days."
Mike Ngo: ...... how in the world did i miss all this??
Reilin Darklighter: ::goes to bar, grabs a whyskey and sits down::
Not sure... maybe you missed the memo
Hobbie Klivian: -=looks at feni, then back at mike=-
Well, we just kinda did it. No memo, no real notice. decided to get married,
and did. *shrug*
Hobbie Klivian: -=sighs=- I wish all the news I had
for you was this pleasant.
Myn Donos: -=grins=- Planning's annoying anyways...
Reilin Darklighter: ::face drops:: what is it?
Hobbie Klivian: Well, there are a few more things.
One - Amanda's been seen in the company of Imperials. If you see Doc,
get the heck out of her way.
Hobbie Klivian: Two - Wes resigned.
Hobbie Klivian: Three - We have a new Rogue joining
us soon.
Hobbie Klivian: Four - Gavin has accepted the station
of Executive Officer.
Reilin Darklighter: ::she looks over at Mike, still on the number
two on Hobbie's list::
Myn Donos: -=whistles=-
Gavin Darklighter: ::he entered as if on que, hair wet, still tired, a bit weak
from all the check ups and visits he's been ordered to attend my the medics,
and his talk with Hobbie yesterday didn't help, as he walked toward the
bar grabbing some
Hobbie Klivian: -=leans back in his seat with a long
sigh=-
Fenig Durak: Free hand reaches up to stroke Hobbie's
cheek a few times. Too much stress. Poor guy.
Gavin Darklighter: whyskey which he was not supposed to have on orders of the
doctors, and turned to spot the others looking like they just had their
air knocked out of them. This was the second day since he came out of medbay,
and the first time with
Gavin Darklighter: the others since the last mission::
Reilin Darklighter: ::she walked over to Mike::
Myn Donos: -=grins at Feni=- It's amazing what people don't know
or haver forgotten...
Fenig Durak: "Oh?" looks to Myn in question.
Gavin Darklighter: ::stands there a few feet away from them all, thinking and
knowing that Hobbie had just told them about Wes::
Myn Donos: -=smirks=- Like what is the main reason that Kirney is
here?
Fenig Durak: "Hey, I haven't forgotten. I have a dress
fitting tomorrow," she grimaced.
Myn Donos: Hobbie'll go with you, he has a tux fitting.
Gavin Darklighter: Forgotten what?
Hobbie Klivian: -=groans=-
Fenig Durak: "Oh good," she smiled lightly, looking up
to her newly annoucned hubby.
Fenig Durak: Hubby Hobbie.
Hobbie Klivian: -=grimace=-
Gavin Darklighter: ::doesn;t know about the marriege since he has been out of
it for a week... literally::
Fenig Durak: One arm hugs her Hobbie. "It won't be that
bad. I'll get to see you parading about in your boxers."
Myn Donos: -=laughs=-
Gavin Darklighter: ::fakes a grin::
Hobbie Klivian: -=is still in a horrid mood - his best
friend did leave, without a word to anyone, after all. He stood=- I'll
see you all later.
Fenig Durak: Blink. "Hobbs, do you, uh, mind if I come
with you?"{
Myn Donos: -=grins=- Have fun Hobbie....wait that's supposedly for
tonight...
Hobbie Klivian: -=twaps myn on his way past=- What
is it gavin?
Hobbie Klivian: -=shakes his head to fen=-
Hobbie
Klivian: -=hobbie
moves on past the group and heads out of downtime=-
Gavin Darklighter: Night hobbie...
Fenig Durak: Pausing a moment in her seat, Fen rises
with a wave to everyone before following Hobbie out of Downtime.
Gavin Darklighter: man... I'm gonna miss that goof... though not so much his
pranks...
Fenig Durak: Jogging down the corridoor, "Hobbs?"
Hobbie Klivian: He stopped and turned to regard her.
"What is it?"
Fenig Durak: She stopped a few feet from him, a deep
frown on her face. "I was about to ask you the same thing."
Gavin Darklighter: ::sits down next to myn::
Hobbie Klivian: "Do you really want to know?"
Fenig Durak: "I might have an idea already," she sighed,
shaking her head.
Gavin Darklighter: ::sighs::
Myn Donos: -=looks at Gav=- So should I start calling you boss also?
Hobbie Klivian: "Listen, fen. I love you more than
anything. But... Wes is my BEST FRIEND! And he's gone - now I'm the only
one left!
Gavin Darklighter: no
Hobbie Klivian: How do you think I feel when I realise
that, and I tell the others he's gone, and they just keep talking like nothing's
happened?!?"
Hobbie Klivian: "No, Fen," he shook his head angrily,
"I'm not alright. And now I'm going back to my quarters. You know the
code if you want me."
Myn Donos: -=grins=- Good then I'd have to call Hobbie boss one and
you boss two.
Hobbie Klivian: With that, he turned and stalked away.
Gavin Darklighter: ::flashbacks of Wes and Wedge and Tycho filter through his
mind, as the memories open old wounds of friends long gone::
Gavin Darklighter: don't..
Gavin Darklighter: too many memories attached to that nickname...
Fenig Durak: Her jaw clenched and unclenched slowly,
her lips slowly shrinking to a thin line. A moment longer as she stood
and stared where Hobbie had stalked off before she to turned and stalked
back to Downtime.
Myn Donos: -=sighs=- Look, just because they aren't with the squad
anymore, doesn't mean that they're dead, both Wedge and Tych live on planet,
possibly Wes also.
Gavin Darklighter: ::he looked down, taking a big gulp of his whyskey::
Fenig Durak: She reached the open doorway, her hands
one either side of the frame, bracing herself. She was livid. "You all
have a lot of nerve! How dare you!"
Myn Donos: Huh? -=looks at Feni=-
Gavin Darklighter: ::he set the glass down, feeling why the medics told him,
he couldn't drink alcohol, but not caring::
Myn Donos: -=gets up and heads over to Feni=-
Fenig Durak: "I don't even know how long Wes was a pillar
of this group, longer than any of you have even been in the rebellion,
and when he leaves you dismiss him like a petulant child! I can't believe
that you can even think of treating him
Fenig
Durak: like that."
Fenig Durak: "I'm relieved that he isn't ehre to see
this and I pray to the Force that he never finds out."
Myn Donos: -=glances at Feni=- Mind if we talk about this somewhere
else?
Fenig Durak: Cheeks aflame, eyes wide with anger, her
breath flaring her nostrils. "No, I don't want to talk about this somewhere
else. It seems that most of the people in this squadron seem to think that
taking leave or resigning is nothing.
Fenig Durak: No big deal."
Gavin Darklighter: ::looks ip::
Gavin Darklighter: **::stands up::
Fenig Durak: Glares at the remainder in Downtime.
Gavin Darklighter: Look!... Wes is and was the core of this group
Fenig Durak: "You think I don't know that?! You were
informed of his absence, one that I doubt you noticed before, and passed
it off as nothing!"
Gavin Darklighter: maybe you don't understand something... Hobbie and Wes are
like brothers there is a bond there that is stronger than anything and
Wes just left... without a warning...
Gavin Darklighter: I WASN'T AWAKE WHEN HE LEFT AND I'M PROBABLY THE REASON WHY
HE LEFT!
Fenig Durak: "BULL SHIT! Sit your ass down and stop
being so self centered."
Myn Donos: -=looks down and sighs=- I can't describe what Wes means
to me and it's unimaginable to what we're really losing.
Gavin Darklighter: YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT FEELS LIKE, TO HAVE NO RECOLLECTION
OF EVENTS THAT PASSED BECAUSE YOU WERE OUT OF IT... SO JUST BECAUSE WE
DON'T LET OUR EMOTIONS OUT GIVES US A BIT OF CONTROL, OVER THINGS WE DONT
HAVE CONTROL OVER
Fenig Durak: Her arms shook with the violence of her
anger, though she forced her voice to calm substantially. "No recollection?
You want to talk about no recollection?"
Myn Donos: -=glares at Gavin=- Stop yelling.
Gavin Darklighter: ::he took a last sip of his drink, his face flushed red, eyes
bloodshot, as he looked at her::
Fenig Durak: "Or no control? I'll give you no control.
MArry a frelling Imperial. Mop up the blood of your own family. Watch
the father of your child leave before you even have a chance to explain
anything. So don't you DARE tell me about
Fenig Durak: no control, Farm Boy."
Myn Donos: -=sighs talking almost to himself=- I'm gonna talk to
Hobbie...maybe that'll be a little easier.
Myn Donos: -=heads off to Hobbie's quarters=-
Gavin Darklighter: ::he threw the glass at a wall and stormed out, feeling a
bit faint, and his emotions out of control... We left
Gavin Darklighter: ::
Gavin Darklighter: **::he turned around before leaving:: Wes meant alot more
to us than he ever meant to you... so don't talk about what you don't know...
Gavin Darklighter: ::turns around and leaves::
Fenig Durak: Her shoulders slumped as two men nearly
pushed past her in the doorway, sinking against the frame to slide down
to the floor. Bringing her knees up to her chest, she wrapped her arms
around them, buried her face inside, and cried.
Fenig Durak: "He meant the world to me. He just couldn't
see that," she mummbled to herself.
Myn Donos: -=knocks on Hobbie's door=-
Gavin Darklighter: ::he slowed his walk as he was almost to his room, having
walked the opposite of Myn::
Hobbie Klivian: -=knowing that if it was feni, she'd
just enter, Hobbie simply growled out=- LEAVE!
Myn Donos: Hobbie, I want to talk.
Hobbie Klivian: -=silence=-
Myn Donos: About Wes...
Hobbie Klivian: -=still silent=-
Myn Donos: And that you're the last Rogue
Hobbie Klivian: -=the sound of someone storming to
the door can be heard, and it whooshes open=- One minute. Get talking
-=glare=-
Fenig Durak: Puffy eyed, swollen lipped, and hiccuping,
Fen stumbles to her feet to hobble to her own quarters. The quarters that
are currently in boxes and bags, ready to be moved.
Myn Donos: -=somewhat supprised=- Umm, wow you're that upset about
it?
Gavin Darklighter: ::he entered his quarters heading straight for the refresher,
making it as he pukes::
Hobbie Klivian: Fourtyfive seconds....
Myn Donos: -=sighs=- Look, I'm not sure why I didn't react the way
I prolly should have was because you KNOW that I have been suspecting something
about Wes for a little bit.
Gavin Darklighter: ::coughs::
Hobbie Klivian: twentyfive.
Myn Donos: And if you think I actually came here with a prepared speech
you're delusional and you KNOW that it'd be longer than a minute
Hobbie Klivian: Ten.
Myn Donos: And that this minute, I'm not even saying a tenth of what
I probably want to day.
Myn Donos: say*
Hobbie Klivian: Goodnight Myn.
Hobbie Klivian: -=steps back and palms the door shut=-
Myn Donos: -=growls=-
Myn Donos: -=frustrated, heads over to Feni's quarters=-
Gavin Darklighter: ::a few minutes later, after puking his guts out, along with
half the medication he crawls into bed his head spinning and feeling like
a hydrospanner was hitting him::
Fenig Durak: Curled up on her stripped bunk, she fummbles
with her comm unit, setting it to the frequency of the Reaper's Fury, but doesn't activate. It's late, Deren
and Erc are probably busy intheir marital bliss, and Fen hadn't the voice
to
Fenig Durak: talk.
Myn Donos: -=knocks on Feni's door=-
Fenig Durak: "C-" she whispered. "Co-" another whisper.
Finally, she hurled her new comm unit at the door to let whoever it was
know they can come in.
Myn Donos: -=opens the door=-
Gavin Darklighter: ::he felt empty, not only cause he didn't have anything in
him, but because almost everyone that he knew had left him in one way or
another; Biggs, Lujane,Corran, Tycho, Wedge, and now Wes...
Myn Donos: You gonna give me more than a minute? Please?
Fenig Durak: What he saw was a mass of brown braid, red
face and puffiness. She nodded slowly, silently.
Gavin Darklighter: ::his world was spinning from under his feet and he didn't
have anything to keep him from falling, except for Dana... and she wasn't
there::
Myn Donos: -=grins=- Good, guess I of all people should know why you
had that outburst in there.
Gavin Darklighter: ::his world was spinning from under his feet and he didn't
have anything to keep him from falling, except for Dana... and she wasn't
there::
Fenig Durak: She sniffled and swiped at her face with
a moist hand.
Myn Donos: -=walks over to Feni and finds a seat on the floor near
her=- I honestly don't know how to describe what means to me...but maybe
if I tell you what he's done for me, might give you some idea.
Fenig Durak: She shook her head again. "Please don't,"
she croaked in a broken voice. "You don't have to."
Myn Donos: You have any idea where he went when he left?
Fenig Durak: Again, she shook her head. She had a few
guesses because of his phrasing in his letter 'Somewhere that my reputation
doesn't preceed the real person,' she misquoted in her head.
Myn Donos: Why? You think you're the reason he left?
Fenig Durak: This time, she lifted her head from the
bare mattress. "Part of it," her weak voice stammered.
Myn Donos: -=sighs=- Mind if I give you a what if scenario based
on that assumption?
Fenig Durak: She nodded again, wishing she could be curled
up in Hobbie's lap right now.
Myn Donos: Ok, he knew or at least he guessed that you and
Hobbie had something for each other, and he wasn't sure but I think that
he cared for you deeply but when thought who'd take care of you better he
decided that Hobbie'd do a better job and decided to drop out of it altogether.
Fenig Durak: She looked at him with puffy, red
rimmed eyes, almost completely misunderstanding every word that came from
his mouth. Her own mouth opened to reply, but stopped as she had nothing
to say. So she just shook her head.
Fenig Durak: "He came to me the night before
and told me that he didn't love me like that. You are right about Hobbie
and me, but that's what Wes told me. He said that he didn't care about
me that way," she murmured finally.
Myn Donos: -=sighs=- I also remember him saying something
along the lines of you being too good for him. -=shrug=- One thing Wes
has always been good at is getting women but one thing he's really bad at
is a long range relationship.
Fenig Durak: She blinked stupidly for a moment
before her head shook near violently. "I never meant to make him think
that's what I wanted. This," she pointed vaguely at her stomach, "was an
accident. I know what some of the other technicians and a few people outside
of the Rogues are saying. I know that they think I let myself get pregnant
to tie Wes down and now...." she trailed off, not able to put it to words.
Somewhere in there she had sat up.
Myn Donos: -=nods=- I know, Feni, I know. Those who say
that are flat out stupid and ignorant and insults both you and Wes, you
two are much better than that.
Fenig Durak: Her eyes seemed darker with the
water built up in them. "What about what they're starting to say about
Hobbie?" she breathed.
Myn Donos: What are they saying about him?
Fenig Durak: "That he married the squadron whore
who's seductress ways reigned him in to be a Daddy in Wes' absence," she
sighed. It wasn't their opinions of her that mattered. It was the way
such things detracted from work, from the respect Hobbie so well deserved.
That Wes so well deserved.
Myn Donos: -=growls=- If it were up to me, they'd be gone...
-=can you tell that he's pissed at them?=-
Fenig Durak: Yeah, and those rumors hadn't even
started yet as the news of her marriage to Hobbie had just been announced
today. THough there had been speculation of a relationship 'tween her and
the Hobbster. "Myn, I've become a detriment to this squadron. My work
aside, I've only added to the stress."
Myn Donos: No you aren't, I owe you my life along with the
rest of the squadron for making sure that our X-wings stay in top shape
and not fall apart when we need them.
Fenig Durak: "Just wait until the prototypes
arrive," she snorted dersively. She knew, just knew, that if one of them
came back from a test run with a single scratch that her eyebrow would start
twitching. Loosen some of the control, Fen.
Myn Donos: Look, I trust you with my life everyday, just like
I trusted Wes, and I trust Hobbie with my life. I trust all of you to make
the right decisions, regardless of what others say. Plus I have to imagine
that they'll increase the size of the matainance staff so they can take
care of both squadrons like the current one does now.
Fenig Durak: She shook her head again. "I haven't
heard anything about new techs or mechanics. Why get more when the current
ones are doing fien?"
Myn Donos: We'll be flying the prototypes along with our X-wings
right?
Fenig Durak: "Yes and no. The prototypes will
not be armed for any kind of confrontation. If we're called to scramble,
X-Wings all the way until I deem the prototypes ready. I'm hoping that
y'all like 'em enough that I can do that in a few weeks." Finally. Shop
talk. This makes Fen feel a lot better.
Myn Donos: Well at least we'll need one crew for X-wing and
another for your protypes.
Myn Donos: prototypes*
Fenig Durak: "Again, not that I know of. I'll
have one representative of Freitech here to obey my every whim," she smirked
a moment, wiping the last tears from her face, "But other than that, as
far as I know, it's business as usual."
Myn
Donos: -=grins=- Call
it common sense.
Fenig Durak: "We'll see. As you can tell, I'm
a bit disheartened with the New Republic right now," she stated dryly.
"At least they have the good sense to buy the fighters designed by the best
mechanic they have."
Myn Donos: -=grins=- Is that ego of yours poking back out
now? And really there have been several times where I've questioned what
the New Republic is doing but usually it turns out fine.
Fenig Durak: "Oh, I'm sure it'll be fine in the
long run. I'm just worried right now. That's all." Yeah, worried the
quartermaster will request the wrong type of fuel for her precious E-Wings.
Myn Donos: Heh, sometimes you just have to hope for the best...everyonce
in a quiet Coruscant people do what they want you to do.
Fenig Durak: Pulling her knees up to her chest,
she hugged them gently. "I know you're right, but let me worry over the
smaller things so that I can forget about the big for at least five minutes?"
Myn Donos: Well I'd rather you not worry, but if it makes
you feel better, then go ahead.
Fenig Durak: "Hey, who are you to deprive a mother
her worries?" she lifted her chin arrogantly.
Myn Donos: I'm the mother's friend who only wants to see the
best for her.
Fenig Durak: "Gods,can you imagine how wonderful
my son is going to be? Wes' looks and charm, Hobbie's sweetness and caring,
and my....lets hope he only gets my eye color."
Myn Donos: Aww, you're being hard on yourself. You're a great
person.
Fenig Durak: "Well, if I have a boy, I hope he
has little of me in him in the way that I want him to be, well, normal."
Myn Donos: -=grins=- As much as I respect the man, one of
Wes is enough...I don't think the galaxy could handle it.
Fenig Durak: "Sure they can. Between Wes and
Hobbie, the two of them have just the right traits to be the perfect man.
If my son has those, look out women everywhere."
Myn Donos: And if you have a girl? Your traits to make the
perfect woman?
Fenig Durak: "Hells no! She'd be the devil incarnate!
Besides," she waved dismissively, "I figure by pure will alone I can make
this child be male."
Myn Donos: Actually, from what I've heard it's the guy that
decides...
Fenig Durak: "Oh? How's that?"
Myn Donos: Sith if I know, I changed channels before I could
find out more.
Fenig Durak: "Pff. Well, I know that I never
got the chance to ask Wes what he wanted, and I don't think Hobbie cares
either way. I just think a boy would be more fun." Call it Barbiephobia.
Myn Donos: Heh, well it'd make a nice contrast...especially
if Elva really is Hobbie's kid.
Fenig Durak: Fen blinked dumbly a moment. Maybe
she'd just let herself be snowed. "Since when did you think Elva was Hobbie's?"
Yeah, they had a sort of similarity, but then so could a lot of kids.
Myn Donos: Since I went over to Tych's to visit.
Fenig Durak: "Why?"
Myn Donos: I see a good bit of Hobbie in her.
Fenig Durak: "Perhaps. She is a beautiful little
girl. Another reason I want a boy." Yeah, Fen wanted a beautiful, healthy
baby. Elva was just too cute, as cute as a little girl could be. Fen wanted
her little boy to be something of the same.
Myn Donos: Heh, somehow I imagine that Uncle Myn will be called
whenever you and Hobbie want to escape.
Fenig Durak: "Nah. That's what Wes is for."
She was sure he'd come back. Sure of it. Though when Wes did come back,
she wasn't sure how she'd respond. "Though if he's busy, then I suppose
I could give you a buzz."
Myn Donos: -=grins=- I'll have to get a permission slip from
Kirney...
Fenig Durak: "Oh, I suppose I could convince
her."
Myn Donos: Heh, I don't think it'll take much convincing.
Her way of convincing me to have kids.
Fenig Durak: "How many does she want?"
Myn Donos: I honestly have no clue, I'll know when she says
"No more!".
Fenig Durak: Fen chuckled softly, her eyes drifting
to the wall chrono. Hobbie would be either sitting by now, tired from pacing,
or asleep. She hoped he was still awake as she wanted to wrap her arms
around him and just be held, but if he was asleep, then she'd just have
to curl up next to him. "Myn?"
Myn Donos: You want to be with your husband?
Fenig Durak: "A little, yeah," she admitted,
a meek smile on her face. "I really do love him, Myn. I'd never intentionally
do anything to hurt him. I want you to know that."
Myn Donos: -=smiles=- I know Fen, I know you do. -=stands
up=- Well don't let me keep you here, because I know he probably wants
to be with you right now.
Fenig Durak: "Did you go talk to him first?"
She remembered that comment of his about giving him more than a minute.
Sounded like something Hobbie would say when angry.
Myn Donos: Yeah, and all I got was a minute. I ended up saying
to you what I wanted to say to him.
Fenig Durak: "I'll be sure to pass it along."
She unfolded herself from the bare mattress seat, stretching her legs a
bit before she stood. "He's taking it the hardest of all. I'm not sure
I know how to help him."
Myn Donos: Well, Wes was the last of the group, when Wedge
and Tych left, I could tell from both Wes and Hobbie that it wasn't nearly
as fun anymore and Wes was the last one left...I imagine he feels abandoned.
Fenig Durak: "I know he does. Hence my insistence
that I get to him."
Myn Donos: And I agree, see you in the morning?
Fenig Durak: "Bright and early. Oh! Before
I go..." she'd nearly forgotten. Digging in a smaller box that was filled
with flimsi wrapped items, she produced a pair of metal hoops with little
charms dangling from them. "My lucky earrings," she beamed proudly.
Myn Donos: -=grins=- Besides Kirney's coming back tonight,
she's expecting me to be in my room when she gets back.
Fenig Durak: "SHe may already be back and waiting
for you. Better go on. Don't want to make her wait too long."
Myn Donos: -=grins=- I'll see you later. -=heads out and
off to his room=-
Fenig Durak: Fen followed Myn from her quarters,
now free to do nothing to sneak about as she entered Hobbie's apartment
to crawl into bed with him, hugging close to his sleeping warmth.
