Galaxy's Edge Space Bar (archive)

[Chad32]

<Uh, yeah, stupid idea Zoshonel had. We won't be asking him for any other stupid ideas. Pretty rediculous really. I just wanted to run it by you once before talking about the lameness of that idea.>

Claxter had kind of hoped she would like the idea. He didn't want her to needto go back to being a controller, or to be running from Visser Three for the rest of her life. On the other hand, becoming a nothlit was a big change even if she just became an Andalite nothlit. She wouldn't be the only Andalite in the military who couldn't morph.

[Darth Revan]

As Silver shivers more, Parker removes his arm from hers and embraces her. Though it's more for moral support, as his armor wouldn't provide much heat for her.

Thordon nodded towards Elayne, "Nice to meet you, 'Elayne'. How would you prefer me?"

[Terenia]

Efaen looks slightly disturbed. She reaches out a hand and grazes his arm with the tips of her fingers hesitantly, hoping that he won't flinch away from the closeness. <Besides, if I were to be trapped in a male body, what future would I have outside of the military?> She shrugs, <I have no set plans for the future, but I would not want to eliminate the option. Or in your eyes am I nothing but another warrior, who would be more acceptable if her tail blade were a little bigger?>

[KitsuneMarie]

Elayne felt her mouth drop open, baffled by Thordon's question, then she shut it again and tried not to let the growl of irritation at herself building up inside her throat emerge. "I ... I don't have a preference," she said in a gruffer voice than usual, her brow furrowing and arms tightening across her chest.

[Darth Revan]

"I could resume my previous appearance, if it would make you less uncomfortable."

[Chad32]

<I want you to be happy, Efaen. Whatever makes you happy makes me happy.> He said as he stepped closer to her. <I've never really felt the kinds of feelings before that I'm feeling now. I'm not sure what I'd do outside of war either. My father was in the war, and so was his father. All of my closest relatives have military careers. Though I suppose if the war ends in my lifetime, I might want to settle down. Have little children and tell them that they were born at just the right time, because the galactic war is over.>

He had a sudden urge to ask Efaen if she'd like to go for a run. Just run away from the crowd and see if there was anything else on this little plane besides the bar where weird things happen. But just when he was about to ask, his thoughts went back to his Prince. He couldn't do such a thing without even telling prince Ossanlin, who probably wouldn't go for it. claxter was expected to act as a Warrior.

<I like you...just the way you are.>

(Does the "I just want you to be happy" thing sound corny or cliche?)

[Terenia]

<You are a good warrior, Claxter,> Efaen smiles with her eyes, but the smile is somewhat clouded. She pulls her hand away and stares back towards where the small group is gathered. Although she cannot make Corliss out amongst them, she is fairly certain that he is still there. She heaves a sigh, lowering her tail slightly.

<You are both correct, of course,> Efaen says, <you and the Yeerk. I cannot delay this decision forever. I would like to leave, to accept a position on Ossanlin's ship and accept whatever lower-rung position I am offered. I want to spend time with you; I would like to get to know you better, as you...fascinate...m e. I wish to leave this place and leave Terenia and never think of her again. But unfortunately, that is not possible. I fear our lives have become far too intertwined these past years.>

[KitsuneMarie]

"I'm not uncomfortable," Elayne shook her head a little too quickly to be convincing. The growl did manage to escape her throat this time, which just made her all the more irritated. "You said you're a wraith? What planet are you from? I've never heard of your species."

[Chad32]

<Very well. Perhaps it would be easier if we simply went to Corliss' ship and you talked to her youself, instead of talking to Corliss? That is if he didn't lock his ship. I would like to go with you, but I don't know if it will be possible. I feel like if I let you go then I may not see you again.>

[Darth Revan]

"A 'Wraith' is merely a title. I am an Anaron, from the planet Anarion, the Elemaeus world of Energy. No, you would not hear of my species, as I am from another reality."

[Terenia]

<I wouldn't want that,> Efaen sighs again, looking conflicted, <I do not think I am ready to talk to her. Not yet. It may be foolish, but I would like to wait, just a little longer. I am enjoying our time together, and am not eager for it to end.>

She starts to move forward once more, starting at a walk but slowly moving into a canter, <It feels good to run on my own hooves!> She shouts back, her soft voice edged with exhilaration.

Far above the planetoid a small, well-cloaked ship exits Zero-Space. The pilot is looking at his readings, a small smirk of victory playing on his human lips. The Hork-Bajir next to him grunts something unintelligable, pointing at one of the screens.

"Yes, I see it," the human responds, "it will not be long now."

The cloaked ship begins to make its way towards the surface of the planetoid.


((new character, ftw! These two will be around rather briefly, I imagine))

[Chad32]

Claxter dutilly followed her with a pleasant smile on his face. This was a good moment in his life, and he wished it wouldn't have to end.

(And now the Yeerk Emperials swoop in and carry her away. You know that would happen if this was a TV show or something. Claxter might even get shot to death. Just when it looked like his life was getting better too...)

[KitsuneMarie]

Elayne rolled her eyes, but she could not help but give a short bark of a laugh. "Of course. Another reality. I really should just never assume it can't get any weirder around here, huh?" She unfolded her arms and straightened her stance. "Sorry if I came across as rude. Been a wild day."

[Terenia]

((haha, I know. Too dramatic, lol. Can we have a scene where Claxter gets down on his knees and shouts <NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOO!> with his arms in the air?))

[Darth Revan]

((Yes! A total Calculon moment! FTW!!!))

Thordon's silhouette angles its head, "Rude?" He straightens it out again, "Not at all. Curiosity is expected in the presence of the unknown. I assume you are a Human originating from the planet Earth?"
