Jitterbug (D3, MM)

[Galen Sol]

He nodded. "She told me about the dreams and began asking me questions. Knowing there would be a lot of Sith and Jedi here, I felt I had to tell her."

[Shaisha Vreysk]

"I'm surprised you didn't tell her sooner," she looked at Galen with a raised eyebrow. "What was the purpose of keeping it from her? I mean, for me, it was none of my business that the two of you seemed to be strong with the Force, as you are not my enemies, and my master is pleased with the work you do."

[Galen Sol]

"No one told me." he shrugged. "And, she never seemed comfortable with it. That's mostly due to Xierreau's feelings about the Force, but I never even told her about my abilities."

[Shaisha Vreysk]

"What, he thinks it's some hokey-pokey or something, and yet he deals with Sith?" she chuckled. "I'll might just make a note of that for future reference, if that's the case, so he can get a proper display of the power of the Sith."

[Galen Sol]

"I think it's more that he doesn't trust it. I know Eight doesn't." he shrugged. "If I was a more blatant user, he probably wouldn't have accepted me as crew."

[Shaisha Vreysk]

"You sound like you could have the talent for a Sith with that attitude," she teased. Or was she?

"At least he's practical enough to not turn away money, even if it is from distrustful Force-users. Business is going well, I trust?"

[Galen Sol]

"I follow the only order I ever have, survival." he shrugged. "Business has been good, though I've been taking a few jobs on the side. Heard of any interesting opportunities?"

[Shaisha Vreysk]

"Lots of bounties going around it seems, if that's your thing. Though I hear people are making the big money on Huttball now. Do you perchance play the game?"

[Galen Sol]

"No." he shook his head. "I don"t really understand the game. Aphr's playing, though."

[Shaisha Vreysk]

"Really?"

Shaisha grinned. "It's pretty simple, really. I even played in the big game myself last night, to have some fun. And earn some good favour with the Hutts. Pretty much no holds barred in the game, except for no kicking the ball. It's fun, you should try it out."

[Galen Sol]

"Maybe." he shrugged. "I'll go watch a game today. I suppose it's better than another bar fight."

[Shaisha Vreysk]

"There's a lot of similarities with bar brawls and Huttball... the violence in particular."

She winced involuntarily at the reminder in her ribs of how violent it was.

"You all staying at the ship while you're here?"

[Galen Sol]

"Yeah, lodging can be a bit expensive." he nodded. "My bunk is comfortable enough, even with bruises."

[Shaisha Vreysk]

"A bit roughed up, yeah... you going to be ok? I could recommend you to a capable doctor, who actually works for free."

[Galen Sol]

"Just my ribs." he shook his head. "Should be fine in another day or two. I've survived much worse."

[Shaisha Vreysk]

"Nar Shaddaa's a dangerous place. No need to play a hero or a tough guy," she gave him a wink, and passed along the contact info to both Sylvain Torsin, and Petty Officer Cole Ormont.

"There you go. Contact info, and the good doctor. Knowing you're a nice guy and all, I don't have to tell you to treat them well."

[Galen Sol]

"Always better to make friends than enemies." he smiled. "Is there anything I can offer you?"

[Shaisha Vreysk]

"Maybe at a later time, Galen, now that I know you and the Starcross crew are here," she gave a friendly smile. As friendly as it could look on a pureblood. "Though you should probably hope I don't have a need for you guys anytime soon. Things are rather crazy with this peace-talk stuff."

[Galen Sol]

"I can imagine." he nodded. "But, you know how to contact us, if you need us."

[Shaisha Vreysk]

"Will keep it in mind. Oh, and also, there's supposedly some nikto or something here on the moon who are hunting Force users... so be careful out there."

[Galen Sol]

"Really? I'd heard there had been several random disappearances. I wonder if they're related."

[Shaisha Vreysk]

"Random disapperances?" she looked at him curiously. "What sort of disappearances?"

[Galen Sol]

He shrugged. "I don't know, other than they apparently don't fit the usual circumstances. They aren't being sold as slaves. They're bodies aren't showing up. Though, I did find a body the other night in Shadow Town."

[Shaisha Vreysk]

"Some elaboration?" she gestured for him to continue, though it did sound familiar.

[Galen Sol]

"He was left in an alley." he explained. "Shortly after I found him, a few others found us, including this Moyr, you told me about. The body was a Lord Yukan."
