Xan stretches, placing his hands behind his head and obviously taking his time to formulate an answer.

"Eh, not really... Figured if we were gonna move into this hunk o' junk, might as well make it as comfy as possible, y'know? Whether or not Mara likes it is just kinda a side-bonus..."

Feeling frustrated himself... Torren leans down so he almost face to face with Kistra. "If I could, I would... trust me, I'd say jump on me and we'd have a great time... but it wouldn't be right."

"You deserve someone who can be yours..." Torren replies, breathing heavy and unsure of himself suddenly.

Kistra scathingly asks "I deserve?"

She stands up, her eyes flashing with anger, and says in a quiet intense voice "I told you you could leave and I wouldn't care. I meant that!"

"However, I meant that, only as long as you do so out of loyalty to Arrisa. This pathetic blather about protecting me is bantha shit." She is almost shaking she is so angry at this point.

She throws her clothes at him, turns around and storms towards the door. Without turning to face him she says "I hope Arrisa cuts off your balls if you ever patronize her this way."

"Wait, what are you doing!" a perplexed Torren exclaims. Drawing on the Force, he goes to lift her and bring her back to the bed...

"I see," says Jayce, "Blake, I'm sending the coordinates of an open landing platform to you...now."
Turning in his seat to face Xan, Jayce smiles and asks, "So, you two have become quite close of late. Inseparable I would say. Any intentions on your part, Xan?"

(Take 10 on Use Computer check to send coordinates to Blake.)

Kistra feels Torren reaching out with the force and slaps it back towards him with her own use of the force. She reaches for the doorknob.

Drawing on the Force yet again, Torren boosts his speed, then dashes to cut her off from the door...

"Eh? We're not that close... She's just... the closest I've been to someone since you...", Xan mutters in response, his cheeks turning an interesting shade of pink as he purses his lips in embarassment.

"Whaddya mean, intentions, anyway? That... that has some pretty unpleasant implications, you know!"

"Well, as your legal guardian I am required to find you a suitable shirasti (Yanibaren for "promised mate." Basically an arranged marriage.) you know. I'd prefer if it was someone you actually liked," says Jayce nonchalantly.

Kistra storms out into the cargo area completely oblivious to the fact that she is mostly undressed. She doesn't really have a destination and just wants to get far away from her own room and Torren.

Without realizing it she ends up storming into the cockpit, still trying to get a door to slam satisfactorily behind her. "Misogynistic pile of bantha poo-doo" she mutters under her breath.

Running back to her bed for a blanket, Torren chases after her, catching up at the Cockpit. Mentally smacking himself in the head, he covers her up, slides past and takes a seat. "We almost there?" he asks, as if everything is normal...

"Got it, thanks Jayce" Blake says as soon as he receives the co-ordinates.
"Should be there in a minute"

He decides not to get involved in the discussion between Jayce and Xan, beyond smirking a little and hoping they don't notice.
Fatherly advice can wait.

He stays silent until Kistra storms into the cockpit wearing hardly anything, a fact that he notices reflected in the transparisteel viewport.
"I don't know about you, Jayce, but I'm starting to feel over-dressed" he says drily, just before Torren arrives.

Hearing Blakes comment, Kistra glares at Torren, deliberately picks up the blanket and throws it back at him. "Is this more protection? What makes you think I would accept anything from you right now?"

Xan looks to Jayce in horror and opens his mouth to retort, but that freezes in a similar kind of horror when Kistra storms into the room half-naked and muttering obscenities. And then Torren follows in after her, covering her up with a blanket... And she throws it back at him?

"What... the hell... just... happened?"

Catching the blanket in stride, Torren gets back up, walks over to Kistra and replies "Fine, can I please talk to you for a moment?... Alone."

Even so, so does his best to shield her from view.

Suppressing a chuckle, Blake reports.
"Bringing her in for a landing in a few seconds, Torren"

Once that is said, he keeps his focus on the controls, preferring to let the kids sort things out among themselves for now.

Kistra · Site Admin Joined: 04 Apr 2008 Posts: 73

Kistra then decides that pretending nothing happened is a good idea. She turns her back on Torren and asks Xan "How close are we to landing?"

Noticing the astonishment on his face, Kistra decides to go get dressed and leaves the cockpit.

Internally sighing in relief, Torren follows her out and lets her lead the way...

Kistra · Site Admin Joined: 04 Apr 2008 Posts: 73

Kistra walks back towards her room, waiting to hear what Torren has to say.

A few moments after Torren and Kistra leave the cockpit, Blake brings the ship in for a landing on a wide circular landing pad a short walk away from the main body of Spacer's Row.

The view through the viewport is fairly unremarkable, with only a few towers obviously visible, and hints of nightlife in the distance.

Once the ship is down, he turns to Jayce and Xan.
"Uh guys" he says a little embarrassed, waving a hand in the direction of the rest of the ship.
"Did either of you remember to tell Kistra about the wedding, and Arrisa having Torren's baby"
