Galaxy's Edge Space Bar (archive)

[Myitt]

Myitt smiles coldly.  "Obviously you've never had anyone try to kill you for money."

[Shenmue654]

Keshin waves his hand. "Now hold on a second. ....we have actually been targeted by other bounty hunters before. Not everyone in the Empire thinks that we're useful, and some people who know how we operate would prefer it if such a curiousity were...eliminated."

Keshin glances off darkly. "Other times...people have targeted us for entirely different reasons. I don't want to talk too much about that. But the point is that I know where you're coming from. I guess you're right. Having some psycho with a gun who you don't even really know try to kill you, especially if the psycho's actually good at it, must be disturbing on a number of levels."

[Myitt]

"Yeah, but you know me," Myitt says, still amused.  "It must be one...hm.  Excuse me, one helluva mind****."

[Shenmue654]

Keshin snickers. "Oh look at that. I almost feel bad for doing whatever I can to help us survive. You're pretty good at being sympathetic, you know that?" Keshin pats Myitt on the head. "But yeah, it was pretty much one hell of a mind****. And we're both about equally prepared for that kind of attack, I guess."

[Myitt]

Myitt flinches away from Keshin, hissing, "You're not the only one who's doing whatever they can to help you survive.  My brother's seen to that, no matter how much it costs our people."

[Chad32]

"Bounty hunters, rebels, Andalites that condone Andalie controllers...You know you're Prince must be different from the rest if he hasn't locked up Terenia in a cage and starved her out. This is a weird place. Very interesting. heck I think I recognize that Hork-Bajir controller from before somewhere too. Oh my gosh! I get it now! I'm in the Twilight Zone! I didn't know it was real. Man, that's wicked." Sukohn said.

[Shenmue654]

Keshin grins a bit nastily. "Take opportunity where you can get it, Myitt. I've known for a long time that you rebels are true to your word, and Corliss was desperate enough to promise me what we need to keep moving. I'm telling you: I really had no idea I was half that frightening. I've got to use that to my advantage."

Keshin then glances at Sukohn and nods. "Yeah, the Bar's weird like that. But this isn't the Twilight Zone. It's just a lousy joint with a supernatural bartender. I'm not even really sure why I came back here."

[Terenia]

Terenia watches Keshin and Myitt go back and forth for awhile in silence, her eyes alight with amusement. She seems to take pleasure from their arguing, in fact she looks like if she were human she'd be grabbing for the popcorn.

<You're right Myitt,> Terenia cuts in at what she feels is an opportune moment, <everyone in this bar is barking mad.>

[Myitt]

Myitt smiles a bit at Sukohn's very human reference, then looks back at Keshin.  "Yes.  Desperate.  He knew you would kill him, and he would die with honor, except he had that one way out.  So he took it.  A weakness?  Perhaps, but I can't say I wouldn't have done the same.  I hope your ego doesn't bloat because of my fear of your abilities.  But you could take the opportunity now, if you wanted to, and I would probably be dead before I realized it.  My host, too.  That's worthy of a healthy dose of natural adrenaline-fueled fear, I'd say."

Myitt grins at Terenia.  "See?  As a Hatter.  I told you so."

[Shenmue654]

Keshin shakes his head. "If I caught you off guard, then possibly. But such actions cause both of us great pain. You've survived nearly three or four different fights with Joanne, and could have killed us easily in at least two of those. There's at least one where...where I wonder why you didn't put us out of our misery while we were helpless." Keshin laughs slightly. "The point is...though we're enemies of a sort, we're both pretty good at staying alive. You're harder to kill than a damned ****roach, Myitt."

Keshin nods at Terenia slightly. "Yeah...everybody in this Bar's a little off. Has something to hide. Or isn't what they seem. My joke is that Joanne and me are all three of those."

[Myitt]

"Because I couldn't.  Okay?" Myitt snaps.  "I just...couldn't."

[Luke Skywalker (Ossanlin)]

Ossanlin looks at Mar for a moment with his main eyes, stopping a few meters away from Claxter.  <Well, that is my hope.  This is a terribly complicated situation, but there are more factors pointing at Efaen's freedom than at her continued slavery.  This isn't just about involuntary slavery, you're correct.  Terenia is a disturbed individual, and no wonder considering the things she's been through...part of that is the fault of my government.  That does not give her the right to enslave anyone.>

Ossanlin looks to Claxter.  <Thank you Warrior.  You must be famished...if you want to take a break, go ahead.>  Ossanlin smiles before looking at Alic once more and squeezing her hand, allowing his tail to caress her waist before gesturing to Mar and trotting into the bar.

He looks over the patrons and notes the apparent emptiness compared to earlier.  He notes a couple of new faces as well.  He finishes surveying the bar and walks up to an empty space, ordering another drink, his stalk eyes swivelling, tail twitching lazily.

[Darth Revan]

Thordon looks to Ossanlin. "Where'd you run off to?"

[Terenia]

<The great prince returns,> Terenia notes sullenly, her earlier good humor fading slightly.

<Where did Claxter go? Ask Ossanlin where he is.> Efaen demands.

<Good lord, you've talked to that Andalite for all of an hour or two at most. What do you want me to do, stalk him?> Terenia snaps. Efaen falls silent, embarassed. Terenia ignores her hosts request and instead fixes Ossanlin with the sunniest expression she can.

<So, where were you?> she asks brightly, <I was worried you were going to die a painful death on me.>
