Galaxy's Edge Space Bar (archive)

[Luke Skywalker (Ossanlin)]

Ossanlin follows Claxter to his ship and watches him open up the main propulsor compartment, withdrawing one of his spent cells.  Ossanlin starts to lift the cell into place as Claxter guides it in to couple perfectly with the drive system.

<Renown can have it's value I suppose, my success is the only reason the Electorate 'turns a blind eye' to my dealings with the Yeerk rebellion.  I'm really the only commander willing to work with them anyway.  If only I could rally some support for them, we could really use their help, but The Electorate can't get past their own short-sighted hatred.  They refuse to see even the strategic value of the rebellion.>  Ossanlin shakes his head, checking the thermoseals to make sure the cell is properly fitted.  <One day.>

<Aliciania is...headstrong.  She's been obsessed with trying to free her father for so long that I'm afraid it's beginning to become a martyr's quest.  She's beginning to reach the point where she doesn't care about her own life anymore.>  Ossanlin twitches his head a bit.  <I think if she knew her death would free her father, she would gladly put her tail to her own throat.>  Ossanlin looks up from the cell with his main eyes.  <It's dangerous and I think it's a poor idea.  Alloran-Semitur-Corass...has nowhere to go.  Controversial is a mild expression to describe what he did.  I could never support genocide.  Alic is convinced that she would do the same thing if she were in his position, I'm hoping she'll gain some wisdom and come to see how abhorrent that is.  Still, if he is to live out the rest of his days, he should be able to do so in his own way.  Frankly I don't even know if his mind would still be intact after so long under the Visser's domination.  If she does this, it will be without my approval.  She's not my Warrior, she does not have to obey me in any way.  I would be...dismayed...if she decided to do this.>  Ossanlin's head twitches a bit again before he turns back to the compartment panel and seals it again.

<Yes, that would be enough to get you back to the Homeworld if Z-Space configuration was right, so there'll be no trouble reaching the Tyrennian.  I don't mean to go back for a bit yet, matters here still need to be attended to, and patrols can wait.  I think returning to the bar would be a good idea Warrior.>  Ossanlin claps an arm around Claxter's shoulders, smiling with his main eyes.  <Glad to have you with me Claxter, hopefully I'll be a bit less unbearable than your previous Prince.>

[Breekan1]

((I'll give you a go, Starfox.))

Puk approaches the fox and looks him up and down. He taps the ground in front of him while looking him in the eye, a Gedd greeting. "You'rrrrre awful quiet. What brrrrings you herrrre anyway?"

[Gaz]

Morgan, after a long period of silence, said to Raksha, "Well, I imagine that if you thought of finding your parents this..." he indicated himself, "is probably not what you expected to find."

"You've adjusted to it just fine," Asda said coming up behind Morgan. "In fact, most of the time you seem quite comfortable. It suits what you do, at least."

"That's true," Morgan replied with a chuckle. "I suppose it does have advantages. Oh, yes, this is Asda. The doctor on my ship."

Claxter made his way back to the bar. Everyone was back inside it seemed, including Zoshonel. He approached Terenia.

<Terenia, I would like to apologize. Even though you probably aren't planning to forgive me. If we do try and fail to rescue your sister, then you have every reason to dispise me. If we try and succeed, then it's basically a slap in the face of the past five years of your life. You opened up to us when you knew this kind of thing might happen, and it did, so I'm sure you resent us for that. I don't really know where to go with this, but I hope that things turn out for the best. For all three of you.>

[Luke Skywalker (Ossanlin)]

Ossanlin follows Claxter into the bar and looks around, and spots Corliss sporting a nasty new wound, and Keshin as well.  Obviously the Dracons had come unholstered, but Corliss seemed to be okay, if in a bit of pain.  Ossanlin nods as if he'd expected nothing less and sends a private thought-speech to him.  <<Bounty hunter practicing his trade on you I take it?  Glad you could hold your own and sorry I wasn't there to back you up.  We've had a bit of a discussion with Terenia...I hope that we can get her to trust us so that we can help her.>>

((Tara, I can't remember if Corliss is back in the bar or not, if he's not just let me know and I'll correct.))

He looks around again and spots Alic in the corner.  He trots over to her and looks into her eyes seriously, keeping his thought-speech private.  <<I know how important this is to you Aliciania.  If you decide to do this...if everything works out and you do this...I cannot stop you.  You are not under my command.  All I can do is ask you not to do it.  Desperation is no reason to risk your life on such an infinitessimal chance.  What will you do if she's loyal?  What will you do if she's not?  You can't brace your father's strength alone, and certainly not while he's infested and surrounded by hundreds of Imperial Loyalists.  It's very likely that you would die or end up under the control of the Yeerk Empire.  Do you really think Alloran would want to see that?  His only daughter infested and controlled just like him?  A second abomination?  Do you think it might just kill him to see you enslaved?>  Ossanlin remains silent for a moment before continuing.  <<I know it would kill me.>>  Ossanlin sways his tail back and forth, his thoughts quiet in Alic's mind.

Corliss turns, grinning at Ossanlin.  He gestures with his pint of beer.  "Yeah, reckon we're all right, mate, don't worry.  It was foolish of me to stalk off from that situation with Terenia, anyway.  We wanted to see if we could help, as well."  He looks over at Alic as Ossanlin makes his way over to her.  "At least she's still here, for the time being," he adds to himself.

[Terenia]

((won't be posting much until tomorrow night.  Traveling until then also, posting on my phone so excuse any mistakes please!))

Terenia stiffens slightly when Claxter approaches, giving him all of the attention of one stalk eye. After his little speech she remains silent for a long while.

<Would you like to know what my host thinks of you, aristh Claxter?> she says at last, still looking mostly away.

[Myitt]

((Travel safe Jessi! ))

[Breekan1]

((I'm also gonna have to disappear soon- parties tonight and then the Ozarks tomorrow!))

[Myitt]

((Have fun Breek and happy Christmahanukkwanza akahvusule!))

[Chad32]

<Um, sure. What does Efaen think of me?> Claxter was curious, but also felt awkward about it. She was pretty, and a small part of him was interested in her because of that. He decded to let it slide that she called him Aristh. She already had enough reasons to snub him without being corrected.

Zoshonel went over to Fox to chat. "So Fox, how good a warrior are you? I'm interested in that kind of thing."

[HiImshort]

Fox looked at Puk and after ordering a glass of water he said in a calm average conversational voice: "I'm here on an assignment for the General. Minor surveilence, but I'm also looking for my father." Fox pulls out his dogtags and the picture of his father. "he went MIA many years ago and a few said he may be dead but I need proof before I really can say that hes dead. So I look."

Fox looked at Zoshonel and after drinking a sip of water said: "It's not something I can explain. I have to show you." Fox smiles a huge Grinch-like smile and blinks his left eye. "So if you want to I'd advise outside. Of course if you don't thst completely understandable too."

[Chad32]

"We can definitely go outside an have some fun." Zoshonel said with a grin. "ou can learn a lot about someone through combat."

(You know, I forget if Zoshonel is still carrying around a rifle.)

[HiImshort]

(um....I don't know either. Let's assume he is.))

"Ok. After you. I'll ollow so you can see me. Ok?"

[Midnight_Huntress]

Raksha didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. She had found her family, her father. She gave a smile and ten turned to Asda. "Pleasure to meet you, Asda'" she said and turned back to Morgan. "I may have found you different from how I left you, but I wouldn't have you any other way." she smiled. Without so much as a thought she hugged him around the waist. "I'm so happy I found you....Father."
