The Singles Cantina RETURNS!...... again

[Clara]

Clara slams open the door to the brand new cantina.

"That's it!!!" She cries. "I've moved so many times that I don't even know where I am anymore!!!" She glared at the bartender, laserbolts in her eyes. "Get me a drink... or somebody dies."

[glorfindel]

"Now that's a voice that I havent heard in a long time" said a tall figure sitting at the bar, dressed in the robes of a jedi the colour of which was difficult to determin, they were black but such a shade of black that it appeared as though they projected darkness by draining all the light within a two foot area around the figure. resolutly *not many people seated too close to him.

The darkness shifted as the figure rose and pulled back a stool next to him.

"sit with me my old friend, I'll pay for the first few rounds, you look like you could use a more than just one or two" he said, his voice resonating around the room in an unplesent way that sounded like slabs of lead being droped onto a solid granit table, infact as he spoke several people around the room looked uncomforteble then rushed off to the bathroom complaining about their bowls.

[jedibrat]

Gavre Adelere slowly sauntered into the cantina, yanking a cloak off her shoulders and sighing. Too much... too much to think about tonight... I just need to relax...

She chose a seat at the bar and settled onto a stool. She sat for a few moments supporting her head with a hand, then ordered a drink. The bartender set it down, but she ignored it for a few minutes, wondering whether her present state of mind warranted her banging her head on the cold countertop or not. She let out a deep sigh, and her head sank lower into her hands.

[Clara]

Clara gazed hard at the figure. "Oh. Its you. You seem to have changed your name, therfore many of the old Senators wont recognise you."

She walked toward him, and gave him a firm hug. "Missed you. So, when do we start doing some evil?"

[The Doctor]

'It would be a shame' said a voice behind Gavre, 'to dent such a nice bar...'
Gavre slowly rotated on her barstool to get a good look at who was addressing her. There was really no need, she recognized the voice all to well.
Sure enough, behind her, hands resting on his umbrella, a slight smile playing on his lips but his eyes filled with concern stood the Doctor.
'Doc,' she summoned a small grin, 'It's been a while.'
'Too long,' he agreed doffing his hat and taking the stool next to her, 'So, what brings on this latest round of head-bar interaction? and don't deny it, I could tell you were bracing your skull for the impact...'

[Clara]

Clara waved over at Doc. "Hi Doc. Remember me?" She gestured to the robed man. "And the once Temujin, now Glorfindel?"

[glorfindel]

"once I was Temujin, that is true" The voice Of Glorfindel once again sending people to the bathroom with fit's of uncontrolable bowl movement's.

"But once I have been a great many people, thay are all in here together, melded together into the singular being now known as Glorfindel" said the dark figure, not moving untill the last word was utterd, then the black cowl shifted to fix the gaze of the two pinpoint's of light the were the only visible part of the face beneeth.

For a moment Clara only stared, them burst out laughing.

The figure shifted slightly then said " you would dare to mock ME"

"yes, because you arent fooling anyone you great fool" stammerd Clara between bouts of laughter.

The dark figure shifted again then muttered something like "can never get a break can I" and then puled back the hood and glared at Clara.

"OK, so it is me, but I was hoping to drop the old reputation and start anew but no, you had to come in here and tear me down just when I'm begining to enjoy myself" then he grinned and slamed down the last of his drink.

"Oh well, I was getting bored sitting by myself anyway" he said in a normal tone of voice and flaged the bartender for another round.

"few changes since we last met though, I've been training solidly for the last two years and I can stay upright after more than one drink now" as he said this Clara got up off the floor and came over to sit next to him.

[Clara]

Clara grabbed a drink off the passing waiter droid, and took a deep gulp. "Whatever you reckon. But I bet I can still beat you in a drinking contest, baby."

[JediLight]

A figure wearing a brown leather Jedi-style cloak stepped through the cantina's doorway. The hood obscured the person's face, but the cloak implied a feminine figure. A gloved hand lifted the hood, revealing the face of an attractive young woman with fiery hair, blue eyes, and a mischevious grin.

She strode towards the bar, opening her cloak a little to reveal a Jedi tunic, complete with a lightsaber hooked to her belt, underneath. She exuded an air of calm confidence as the Jedi she was.

[Clara]

Clara glanced quickly at the newcomer, sizing her up. You never know if and when a drunken brawl would start, and Clara liked to know her oppenents.

Clara stretched out with the Force, and smiled. True blue Jedi, just as Glorfindel was true blue Sith. Clara? Well, she was both. Why pick one, when you can be both.

Clara sipped her drink once more, and wondered silently if she should do more in the overcrowded Senate.

[jedibrat]

"Doc, you know me all too well..." At that comment, the Doctor merely smiled. "And the bar-head-slamming thing, well, that's just stress. Yaknow, things just add up and get more hectic every day..." She grew quiet and looked thoughtful for a moment, staring at her hands and the drink in them.

[Jeianni]

She enters the cantina, confidence apparent in her stride. Slowly she comes to a halt in front of the bar and scopes the scenery. Her eyes fall on the brown robed figure..... a Jedi? Here? ahhhh...... * *Now maybe she would get some answers.


"Excuse me? I'm Jeianni, can I sit?", she points to the chair next to the jedi.


The jedi looks up and calmy gazes upon Jeianni. What she sees provokes great interest, a tall youngster, 18...maybe.... with dark hair- braided into tiny warrior braids. She wears a flight suit, green to match her eyes, and her skin- light brown*in the cantina lighting. But strangest of all, her almost angelic aura of the living force, shining off of her like a beacon. *The jedi looks into her eyes, knowledge and curiosity showing throw plain as day. *
Jeianni continues,

"I have a few questions that maybe you have the answers to?"

[Clara]

Clara glanced toward the newcomer by the bar and nudged Glorfindel. "Got someone asking questions. Keep your wits about you. Last time someone tried to asked questions, people got hurt."

Glorfindel looked at her. "It was only Hands_Polojr."

She smiled at him. "So? Someone still got hurt." She turned to her beloved and kissed him, then pressed her mouth against his ear. "And I enjoyed hurting him, too."

[Seanakin]

*Having parked his Sith speeder OUTSIDE the cantina for once, Seanakin Pau'rant came sauntering inside, draped on all sides by his menacingly Sithy black robes, yet his face bore a rare look of conviviality that said "Finally, my work in the Senate is all caught up, and now I'm ready for some fun!"

Noting the familiar faces, he smiled and pointed. *"Hey there, Doc, Gavre, and Clara," he said before he glanced over at the menacingly shrouded visage of Glorfindel. *"Uhhhh...nice to see you too."

He strode to the bar, at which point the bartender asked, "What will it be, Senator?"

"Senator?" asked Seanakin with a generous helping of surprise in his voice. *Wow, he thought to himself, they finally have some real help working here!

He thought a moment, then said "I'd just like whatever the Rodian on the floor was having." *Then he leant against the bar and gazed out among the bar patrons.*

[Luthien]

Suddenly, a pair of arms went around Seanakin, and a familiar voice whispered into his ear. "Hello there, Seani..."

[Clara]

"Hi Sean." Clara grinned at Glorfindel. "Yet another familiar face. Now I'm starting to feel right at home."

[Darth Bun]

*Suddenly, the door flung open and a large shadowy figure stood in the doorway. Obviously a Sith Lord, he strode through the bar, his robes flowing behind him. No one could recognize the Sith, as his hood was up, concealing his features. Stopping at the bar in front of Seanakin and Luthien, he leans over to Seanakin and whispers.*

"These Pretzels...."

"ARE MAKING ME THIRSTY!!" Seanakin cries with a hearty laugh.

*The Sith Lord removes his hood to reveal that it is none other than Coruscant's Very Own Darth Bun, back from many adventures around the galaxy. He's a little unshaven, but no worse for the wear.*

"So, how've you been you old pirate?" Bun says as he settles himself into the barstool next to Seanakin.

"Oh, you know, same ole same ole." Seanakin says with a grin.

*Bun scans the room. "Hmmmm.....lotsa new faces here...." he thought.*

"Lotsa new faces here, eh, Seani?" Bun says, no doubt checking out the *ahem* female attendance.

"Yep." Sean says, sipping his beer "Good to have ya back, son, we weren't sure we'd ever see you again."

"Well, you know what they say..."

"Yep. Never pee uphill."

"Ummmm...no" Bun says with a giggle "They always say 'no matter where a man's steps take him, he always ends up home.'"

"Oh, right..." Sean says as the two continue to talk about old times and imbibe alcohol.

[Seanakin]

*Seanakin had just gotten another bulldog when he told Luthien and Bun about the increasingly hectic conditions at work.

"I have never...and I mean NEVER seen a more annoying period of time over at the Senate Office Building, what with them adding all that extra office space for the displaced Council staffers. *Sometimes, the noise is so bad I can't hear my secretary babble all day on the comlink!"

Luthien looked over. *"That bad, eh, honey?"

"You wouldn't believe."

Just at that moment Luthien's adopted brother Boba Fett came staggering in. *"Hey, whose speeder is out there with the sticker saying "Geonosians do it on the rocks?"

Seanakin turned around. *"Uh, that would be mine. *Are they finally towing it away?"

Boba feigned a laugh. *"Heh...you wish, BROTHER."*

Excellent post there, Lord Bun. *LMAO!!! * style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif

[Luthien]

Luthien giggled. "Boba, that reminds me, did you get me that "Mandalorians do it in armor" sticker for my speeder?" Boba grinned, and handed his sister a thick stack of stickers. "I got some extra different ones for you, in case you wanted a change." "Thanks, brother." Luthien put the stickers in her purse. "I'd give you a hug, Boba, but I'd hate to destroy your badass reputation." style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif

Turning to Seanakin, she sighed. "TELL me about it. Which is why I never want to go into politics. The low-lifes I deal with on a daily basis is more than enough for me."

[The Doctor]

The Doctor lifted an eye at Gavre's obvious depression.
'Come on... how can you be depressed in somewhere like this? Ahha!' he cried suddenly, 'Here's the problem... that beverage is not nearly alcoholic enough. Well we can rectify that.... Now *Bun,' he nudged the Sith beside him,
'Tell Gavre about that time on Naboo...'
'I don't know what your talking about...' said Bun, suddenly poker faced.
'Of course you do, we were exploring the old Palace ruins...'
'Don't have a clue....'
'and we heard a noise and you said you'd check it out...'
'Doc....'
'and of course Bun had never seen a Shaak before, which is basically this big ass with an animal attached and so he came running out and said..'
'Doc! I think you should finish that story there.... ok?' said Bun.

The contrast between Bun's embarrassed anger and Doc's feigned innocence nearly made Gavre fall out of her chair laughing....

So she didn't hear the Bun mutter to the Doctor with a grin on his face, 'That was nice.'
'Hmm? Oh yes, thanks for your help, I liked the throbbing blood vessel.'
'No problem.'
'Correlian Ale?'

[Jeianni]

*Interesting!*, she thought.*I guess there's some sort of secret handshake or something.*

The jedi Jeianni sat next to had suddenly become interested in her drink and was paying absolutely no attention to her. She took the oppurtunity to scan the bar and check out the other customers. Her eyes casually scanned the crowd.

*Hmm, typical bar patronage it looks like. A couple of Sith lords...... Ooh! Is that Mandalorian armor?! I wonder if he'd tell me where he got it from. .... Nope, probably not a good idea to ask. Rodian on the floor, check. *hmmmm..... interesting. The women over there, she feels cold, and warm all at once. As if the force didn't want to make up its mind with her. *Uh oh, she's giving me the evil eye, look away slowly Jeianni, don't be too conspicuous now. Maybe I should suddenly be interested in my drink too. Ooops, don't have a drink.*

" 'Scuse me, Barkeep? Can I have a Lomin Ale please?"

"Sure, just a sec." *He brings Jeianni a mug and she suddenly becomes intranced in the foam.

[glorfindel]

"wierd, not a single person has been able to reisist making a sudden enterance. I dident think this was such a fasionable place or I would have been later in my arival" Glorfindel said after taking a long pull from his drink and signaling the bartender for another.

"I dont believe it, that a whole drink you just finished and you still look coherent, I'm impresed" quiped Clara with a smile.

" what do you suppose Hands polo's up to at the moment anyway, have you seen him recently?" she asked giving Glorfindel a provocative look.

"well, I saw alot of him a couple of month's ago but only a bit lately. well bit's of him lately. I have his toung nailed to my bulkhead... dont know what happend to the rest of him, it was rather messy though, the toung was the only bit I could identify..." replied Glorfindel, an evil aura was projected as he spoke

"I told you, nobody and I mean nobody maxes out my girlfriend's credit card and get's away with it" he said

Clara looked at him speculativly.

"I'll show you if you want.. you can check out the rest of the ship at the same time, the captains quarters are particularly intesesting" Glorfindel said hopefully

[DarthFlip]

It seems u have finally turned to the dark side Clara! It has been a long time. Hans Polojr...Claras former arch enemy had returned in the form of DarthFlip the most powerful Sith Lord in the universe!!! :devil:

[DarthFlip]

It had been years since Clara had thrown DarthFlip off a cliff. She always thought she defeated him but she was wrong....DEAD WRONG[B]. What actualy happened to flip ( When he was hans polojr) Was he was badly beaten when Darth Sidious found him and started to train him. Flip was back!!! And wanted revenge and he would kill any1 who would get in his way of reaching his goal.....Getting rid of Clara for good! :lol:

[DarthFlip]

I still want to defaet u Clara meet me outside in 5 minutes we have an old score to settle!

Clara steps outside only to find that she is surrounded by DarthFlip and thosuands of droids...Finally I have my revenge Clara see how you are going to get yourself out of this one ahahahahaha

[Admiral DaaLa]

Daala causally walked towards the cantina. Her little walk around the block had lasted a couple of days as she had got quite lost. AS she neared the cantina Daala realised that there was commotion out the front. Darling Clara seemed to be getting her handles full with some guy who couldn't handel rejection and his driod mates seemed a little aggitating. With her normal level of confidence DAlla waltzed straight up to Clara gicing her a big hug and exclaiming in a partially osber tone "how are you sweetie... its seems i got lost. Shalll we go inside and have a drink?" :thumbs-up:

[jedibrat]

Gavre sighed; the night had been long. She looked up from her drink to glance at the new arrivals. "Daala!" she exclaimed. "How you be? Haven't seen you in a while..." :blush:

[Admiral DaaLa]

Gauvre exclaimation caught Daala's attention as she walked over to her old cantina bud. "i'm good sweetie, how are you?" Daala had too admit that she hadn't seen Gauvre for a while and politely inquired about the seat next to the jedi. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif

[Darth Bun]

*Bun scanned the area, searching for a female - ANY female - to strike up a conversation with. Then he saw her, seated next to a Jedi. Apparently Bun had set his sights on Jeianni. From his Sith robes, he produced a hand-held mirror, with which he examined his countenance. "Hmmmm..." he thought "I believe a bit of grooming is in order." So, Bun made his way into the bathroom and emerged a new man. No longer unshaven and scruffy-looking, a-la many a nerfherder, he was looking quite strapping. Putting on his best I-am-cute-and-mysterious face, he started to make his way towards Jeianni. She was sitting at the bar staring into her frosty brew; he ran over a Jawa en route to her.*

"UTINNI!" shouted the Jawa at Bun, who got up and straightened his robes.

"This never happened..." Bun said, waving his hand in the Jawa's direction. The Jawa just shrugged and walked off, but everyone else's eyes were still on Bun, the recent moment still fresh in their minds.

"WHAT!?!?" he said as everyone returned to their drinks. Bun continued his journey to Jeianni. He stopped right next to her, and she never noticed him.

"Ummm...Hi." Bun said to Jeianni, who was still staring into the foam. "Can I get you a drink?" he asked as she finally looked up.

"Sorry?"

"Can I get you a drink?"

"What? Do you work here?"

"No, I was wondering if I could buy you a drink."

*Jeianni looked down at her still untouched mug.*

"But, I, um, already have a drink."

"Right. Well, care for a little company?" he said sitting down next to her.

"Looks like there's not much choice in the matter..."

[Leia]

*Leia walked in, plopped down at the bar, ordered cheese puffs and a cherry coke (What in the galaxy's a cherry coke? Oh sorry, I meant Jawa Juice), and then proceeded to do absolutely nothing amusing or interesting*

[Darth Bun]

*A voice behind Leia spoke up.*

"I'll take care of that."

*Leia turned around to see Bun, smiling at her.*

"How ya feeling, kid?" Bun said taking a seat next to her.

"I'm surprised you noticed me" Leia said getting her drink as Bun made the two fingers sign to the barkeep, signifying that he wanted some Jawa Juice as well. "What with your display of ardor to what's-her-name over there..."

"Yeah, well, let's just say that whenever a girl finds her frosty brew more interesting than your's truly....things are certainly awry." Bun said with a laugh.

"So, what's been up, dude? Haven't seen ya round these parts in a while." Leia said, sipping her drink.

"Well, the same could be said for you" Bun said with a smirk "but all I'm gonna say is that where I've been..."

*Bun takes off his right glove, revealing a cybernetic hand.*

"...you don't wanna go."

*Leia, unimpressed, just turns back towards the bar and her drink.*

"You got that in high school, Bun." she said "It's not like the whole GALAXY hasn't heard of the group of high schoolers that took on the fanged kid invasion at Coruscant High back in the day."

"Yeeeeaaahhh," Bun began "but I just like taking the old glove off from time to time...keeps people on their toes."

*The two shared a laugh and continued to drink Jawa Juice.*

[Clara]

Clara looked at Darth Flip. "Get over yourself, and its not the dark side, its shadow. Both sides. Not one. Both." As she turned and walked inside, she casually flicked her wrist. The droids all exploded, knocking Flip down.

She returned back into the Cantina, and straight back into Glorfindel's arms, waving to Daala as she passed.

[Admiral DaaLa]

Daala smirked at Clara's wonderful display and nodded at slight salute of approval. Clara had handled the gentlemen with class, in other words she had killed it big time. Daala returned to Guarve to see her drink empty and cautioned the bartender to refill the drink immediately with some special addition third class kawakian space kornog and orange juice. Naturally Daala got herself a round and offered the kornog to Bun and Leia... style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif

[Leia]

"Um... thanks" *Leia peered at her cup with dismay "uh, what is it?" She turned, startled, to Darth Bun as he let out a huge belch

"Dunno, but it sure tastes good!"

Leia looked back at her cup and shrugged "If you say so" She took an experimental sip and her face brightened *"Wow, you're right, this stuff's great! Thanks... I don't think I caught your name. I'm Leia and you are...?"

[Jeianni]

Jeianni looks up and looks side to side.

*What just happened?...... * * Oh yes, that Darth Bun guy. Interesting character!........... * * * * * Oh, Right! He was talking to you, Dipstick! Go and apologize!*

Jeianni gets up and shrugs off her dazed and confused mood, thinking nothing of talking to herself in such detail. *She moves towards Darth Bun and Leia, walking past an irritated Darth Flip, a smug Admiral Daala, who by the way looks very stunning today, and then finally arriving at their table.

"Hi, I hope I'm not interrupting, I just wanted to apologize for totally ignoring you over there. My friends tell me I have the attention span of a znizzle bug. " * * *Or they would if *I had any friends.....*

She turns to Leia.

"I'm Jeianni, I don't think we've met." *- *Jeianni elicits one of her best, 'you want to love me because I'm so darned cute' grins, and offers her hand to Leia. "Why don't I buy you a round of drinks and we can all get to know each other better?"

[Darth Bun]

"So darned cute, eh?" Bun said to Jeianni, who looked stunned that Bun knew what she was thinking.

"Wait a second. How did you--"

*Before she could finish, Bun produced his lightsaber and projected this thought into her head.*

"They don't call me "Darth" Bun for nothin', baby!"

*You could almost see the lightbulb appear over her head.*

"Oh....OOOOOOOooooooohhhhhhhh...I gotcha."

"Yeah, good job sport. Now, as for those drinks. I'd like a Jawa Juice!"

[Jeianni]

Jeianni recovers her innocently shocked look and motions to the bartender to put it on her tab.

*Typical Sith, wavin' his lightsaber around like candy, man I hate it when people call me sport! ....... *oops, he can hear what I'm thinking..... Crap! he just heard that!, *stop thinking..... Shutup!*

As these thoughts rolled around in her mind and threatened to throw her into a panic attack, an all to common occurance.

Darth Bun smirked at Jeianni as he observed her chaotic thinking.

"Yes, do please stop. You're giving me a heada-" he stopped short.

All emotions and thoughts flying out of Jeianni's head had suddenly vanished, as if Jeianni no longer existed in the Force. Particles of light had begun to collect themselves around Jeianni , slowly swirling around her, giving her skin a luminescant sheen, and intertwining with her hair.

*Ahhhh crap, I'm glowing again! I really need to get that taken care of. Let's see here........*
Jeianni breathed in deeply, conentrating on her somewhat phospherecent aura, trying to pull it back in to her. The glow dispersed and she gave Darth Bun a sheepish grin.

"Sorry 'bout that, I glow when I'm nervous *style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bigsmile.gif. "

[glorfindel]

Glorfindel steped out behind Clara and looked around at the droids with a bored expression on his face and then turned the focus of his gaze to Darthflip.

"well, it's nice to see that some things never change. how are you flip? that's a nice prosthetic you got to replace you're toung, did you find prosthetic replacement's for the other parts I removed? or did you get a job as a Eunuch as i suggested?" asked Glorfindel, a strange sparkne gleaming in his eye's

"HAHAHA, I did get a job as a Eunuch s it happens and I must say thank you, I never knew that spending all day looking at beutifull creature's from all over the galaxy could pay so well" replied Darthflip

"I have a drink to get back to so let's just dispense with the formalities. You should not have come here flip, I thought I made it clear that you were to stay at least 3 systems away from me and Clara when I castrated you with those two brick's, do you need another lesson?" as Glorfindel said this the droid's began levitating higher and higher then when he finished speaking they were all propelled at high speed into one central point where they were crushed into a ball of scrap that then exploded into flame's and was melted into slag.

"do you have any idea how much that army cost me???" screamed Darthflip

"alot more than it was worth" put in Clara, advancing on the punative figure of Darthflip as she spoke.

Then there was a flash and a familiar smell of burning flesh and Darthflip began screaming then ran for his life to his waiting ship.

"I'll regret asking this but, what did you just incinerate?" asked Glorfindel as he and Clara walked back to their table

"well, lets just say he'll never eat a spicei curry again, or sit down..." replied Crara, and the two went back their drinks style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/devil.gif

[Admiral DaaLa]

Looking around the room Daala realised the commotion had only been from Clara and Glorfindal, who she sent a warming smirk too while returning back to her brew and Leia. "oh i'm Daala ... nobody cares about formalities in here and its a pleasure to meet you??? i don't think we have been properly introduced but will you share another glass of this kornog with me. I was informend that this was imperial private stash but you know how reliable those damn captains can be."

As Daala started refilling Leia's glass Jeianni continued to glow and flirt with Darth Bun who as per usual was showing off his lightsaber. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif

[Clara]

"Nice job," Clara congratulated Glorfindel, then moved toward the bar, where she noticed Bun was flirting with the new girl. She leaned toward him, so that only he would hear. "Any luck? And a word of advice; keep the fish out of the Cantina this time."

She saluted Daala and Leia, then ordered herself and Glorfindel a drink.

[DarthFlip]

Fools!!!! Do u think you can stop me this time Clara and your loverboy helping you out. I am now a great Sith Lord!!! B4 Clara could blink an eyelid Flip shot a lightning bolt at her sending her face first into one of the Cantinas walls. Flip smiles and tells Clara to "Knock herslef out"

[DarthFlip]

Flip then gives his attention to Glorfindel. How could you join forces with Clara you fool! When you were the great Temujin you swore to fight Clara...not fight with her!! What has happend my old friend. Flip then blows on Glorfindel and instantly freezes him. "You need to chill out you weak fool!".
Oh...tell Clara ( if she can defrost you) if she wants to challenge me I will be were I usually am...I will be waiting for you two so I can get rid of the both of you at the same time. Consider this a demonstration of my power!

[Clara]

Clara picked herself up, brushing herself off. She looked at Glorfindel. "I don't know about you, but lets buy a couple of bottles of Whuppas and pay a visit to the Darthflip vs. Clara/Glorfindel thread."

[Admiral DaaLa]

It was evident that rejection wasn't Darthflip's strong point, nevertheless Daala reassured herself that the other thread would be quite fascinating. But as for the commotion in the cantina, Daala was tired of of restarting her conversation with Leia and wanted a little chill out space. SHe ordered Java Juice for FLippy and sent it aross the table with a smile and take a seat sweetheart look because we've all been there gesture. Daala even though single was currently smitten by a the likings of a new friend that had appeared in her life.

[Leia]

*Leia hiccuped and covered her mouth embarressedly "Jeez, you guys gotta stop buying me drinks or I'm gonna get drunk! Well... maybe too late now..." Leia's drink fell from nerveless fingers as she slipped off her chair to lie prostrate on the floor under the bar.*

[jedibrat]

Gavre surveyed the commotion, giving a slightly tired but genuine smile in everyone's direction. She sighed as she sank into a post-birthday calm, ever pondering her many ever-present ponderings.

[Jeianni]

As a bright flash of light, (Which was for once not her's) appeared out of the window of the cantina, *Jeianni took the momentary lapse in Darth Bun's attention to slip away into the darker nooks of the cantina, but diverted her direction to go and sit next to Gavre.

"Hello! I'm Jeianni, glo-worm extraordinare. Nice to meet you. I hear it was your Birthday? How old are you (If I may ask if I wont get slugged.)?"

[GrimJackal]

A God appeared at the cantina entrance. Or at least, the likeness of a God. The anthropomorphic Grim surveyed the bar. Yes, many familiar faces. He appeared to make some notes in a slim black book before slipping it into a pocket of his leather jacket and stepping into the cantina proper, taking a seat next to Admiral Daala.

"Chocana, barkeep. ... A big one." He grinned sideways at Daala.

"Grim?" she said.

"Always."

"It's been quite a while since I've seen you around."

"I had to go rediscover myself," he replied, sipping at his drink through a straw. He shivered, and nodded at the glass. "Icy." He turned to survey the cantina again, speaking sidelong to Daala. "So. Who's this new "friend" of yours, hmmm...?" He made a point to grin as deeply as his muzzle would allow.

"How could you possibly know about that?"

He swallowed a mouthful of chocana and waved a paw dismissively. "Continuity error. Go with the flow."

[Clara]

I'm staying in this thread, dispite the fact I'm also kicking DarthFlip's behind in the other one. And kick it I will...

Clara picks up her drink again, thankful that the mentally unstable Sith had gone. Says a lot about the people I know, she thought to herself. Most of them are Sith Lords

She settled back, enjoying the peace while it lasted.

[DarthFlip]

Clara didnt realise that Flip was across the other side of the cantina getting to know his new found friend Daala, he was to busy to bother with Clara's sad butt at the moment has he found some kind of attraction to Daala

[Clara]

Word of advice Daala; RUN!!! :whatsthat:

[Admiral DaaLa]

"My new friend..." Daala for once timidly muttered as she over came her shock of seeing Grim again. "He's very good it seems, but well we are still just friends... for now. But there is dinner on Thursday to look forward too, not jumping too conclusions this time though gonna be cool, calm and collected and hopefully logical." Daala finished off her drink and ordered another round for herself and Grim. SHe noticed Flick directly acroos the table from her starring at her and passed him a Cruiser with a wink style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif

"So, how life been treating you, Grim?"

[Leia]

*Leia revived to see a jackal sitting on the chair above her. "oh" she muttered "I must still be dreaming." Painfully, she dragged herself up from the floor, clutching her head. She seated herself on the chair next to the Jackal and got a better look at him.* "Oh, hey Grim. Long time no see. 'scuse me if I'm short on conversation, but I've got a splitting headache at the moment..."

[jedibrat]

Gavre turned slightly as Jeianni addressed her. "17!" she proudly replied, quite happy at that fact that she could now get into rated-R movies. :devil:

"Hey Grim!" she said as she noticed him enter the bar. "Long time no see... and Daala, congrats on the special friend, hope things blossom soon..."
style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif :love:

"Ah, to be infatuated, and to have it reciprocated... a dream I have yet to attain, hence my presence in a Singles' Cantina..." Gavre trailed off and focused her attention on listening to the conversations around her and using the Force to play w/ the foam on her drink.

[glorfindel]

Glorfindel, seeing that both Clara and flip had developed split personalities decided that he dident want to be left out so aperated himself back into his seat next to Clara and kissed her on the cheek.

"hey babe, did you miss me?" he said and signaled the bartender for an aristotle of the most ping pong diddly in the nuclear sub (a very strong drink)

[Jeianni]

Jeianni smiled vaguley at Gavre.
*17, that number should mean something to you. Think , Jeianni, think!! Seventeen, seventeen, .......... Oh YES! your turning seventeen soon.*
Jeianni told her so.

"That's great! I'm turning 17 soon! My mother isn't to happy about those R-Rated Holo-flicks though. "

Jeianni stopped and looked at Gavre, who had managed to lose herself in her drink.

*Ahhhhh, the ever popular staring into one's drink. hmmmm........ an empty glass of my own I see. I must repair this!*

"Barkeep! Can I have a Jawa Juice please? Thanx."

Jeianni looked around the room, noticing a new entrance.

*Rather fascinating new arrival.* Jeianni got up and went to check out this Grim character.

"Hi, I'm Jeianni, nice to meet you ! Mind if I sit?"

[GrimJackal]

"Life is learning, and change," Grim said in reply to Daala. "And there has been plenty of change, and I feel more complete for it. And you, something in the air, nay?" He smiled again. "Calm and collected is fine, but don't be afraid to let him know, because... things happen." He gave a shrug. "Things happen. Nothing of the heart will proceed logically. That's why it's a battlefield."

"You seem very rhetorical this eve," said Daala.

Another shrug. "I sit back and watch, and think. I'm not brave enough to fight.. not for myself." He eeked as he noticed Leia revive and take a seat next to him, saying hello. "A headache? Take it easy." His ears wilted. "Sorry I didn't see you down there. This muzzle has its disadvantages where vision is concerned. Long time, no see indeed. And hey, here's Gavre! Wow, everyone be here. I'm so late."

Leia nodded and cradled her head. Grim was about to suggest she take something for it when another cantina patron approached, introducing herself as Jeianni.

"Jei.. anni?" he echoed discordantly, before shaking himself back to the moment. "Ur, sorry, the name is reminiscant of another I know." He pulled out a stool for her and extended a paw. "Please, I'm Grim."

"Grim?"

"Yeah... My name, that is," he added, after realising there could be some confusion. "Grim Jackal, for all your furry anthropomorphic needs," he said, dipping his head. "Nice to finally meet some of the new faces."

[DarthFlip]

Flip knocks down the cruiser that Daala gave him. He then sits down and enjoys the scenary of the new cantina, afterall....he was one of the people that destroyed the first one!

[Admiral DaaLa]

"Things happen... yer your right Grim but never to me!" Daala sighed and peered into her drink, it seems she hadn't heard from her friend in three days now. But it was cool cause she wasn't jumping to any conclusions it was exam time at the moment. Breathing really heavily...DArth Vader style Daala looked up at the new patron introducing herself to Grim. "hi, i'm Daala." she muttered as she sipped her drink, began breathing normally and continued "i would have said hello earlier except you seemed to be indulging in Bun's company." Daala looked over and winked at Bun approvingly.

Daala sighed and asked the universal questin of "what if you were in love with the guy whos best friend is in love with you??? ANy one got any answers???? and while were at it how do you not loose any friends and still get the guy you want?????"

Daala looked at Darth Flip whos drink was empty and ordered him another one from the bar. Then in her natural way she went around and ordered the rest of the patrons a drink on her own Imperial tab.

[Darth Bun]

*Of course, Jeianni's departure did not escape Bun, who really didn't seem affected at all. He spotted Grim from across the bar and gave him a hearty wave. It was at that point that he saw Jeianni go and sit by Grim. "Ah well..." he thought "Guess you can't win 'em all..." with that he produced a remote from his Sith Robes and pressed a combination of buttons. the remote beeped and a canny droid voice came from the other end.*

"You called, Master Bun?" the droid said

"Yeah, Alfred. I just don't know what to do anymore. It's like every girl I run into, they're just not...right." Bun said staring into a drink of his own.

"You mean they're not blue-skinned bounty hunters." Alfred quipped.

Bun smirked at the droid's glib remarks "Is that so? Well, then, remind me to do a memory wipe on you whenever we get back....whenever that'll be...But, maybe you're right, Al. Maybe I have been thinking about Beck a bit too much these days..."

"May I suggest another helping of Jawa Juice, sir?" Alfred said from the ComLink/remote/Keyless Entry thingy.

"Sounds good, but it won't help, man. Things just haven't been the same without her 'round here. Ok, I gotta go for now. I'll give you a call whenever it's time to start up The Bird." Bun said as he put away the, um, "device" and turned back to his drink.

[Clara]

Clara smiles at her beloved. "Of course I missed you. Why wouldn't I?"

She turned her back on Flip and began kissing Glorfindel deeply.

[jedibrat]

Gavre turned in time to see the amorous display between Clara and Glorfindel and wolf-whistled mischievously... :sigh: :p

Then, she happened to feel a small ribbon of disappointment weave its presence through the room via the Force. She stretched out and could feel it center around Bun. Sensing this, she projected her thoughts gently in his direction--

"Sure, you can't win them all, Bun... just keep in mind that some of us haven't won any; have faith, be strong..."

[Seanakin]

*Not noticing the sudden radiance emanating from behind, Bun was then startled to hear a familiar voice in his head calmly imploring him...

Beck will ALWAYS be with you....

He turned around to find the post-mortem visage of Seanakin standing behind him. *He was so taken aback by this display the only words he could muster were "Lord Pau'rant..."

"Hey there, big guy. *Having girl problems, eh? *Have I so BEEN there. *Hang on, though, I'll return in a sec."

Bun shook his head. *"You...you meant, then, what you said about Beck?

"Nah, I was just joshing you. *It's just that I always wanted to make that dramatic an entrance. *Sorry if I disappointed you, bud. To be honest, I couldn't tell you either way.*But for the record, she does seem like a nice enough girl."

"Thanks." *Bun began to think about....stuff....while at the same time Seanakin wandered up to the bar and asked "What do you recommend from your list of spirits around here?"*

[Jeianni]

"Hi Daala! Yeah, Darth Bun is kinda cute * style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blush.gif . I just have such a hard time meeting new

people, I get nervous and then I start glowing. *Just horrible. That's why I'm looking for a Jedi Knight, I gotta get this under control!....... But anyways, if I were you, I'd tell the truth up front. Tell the guy who likes you that you cherish him as your friend. Then tell teh guy you like that you like him. Might work, I had the same problem once." ** A *very long time ago*

Jeianni looked wistfully off into the distance, finding her gaze coming to rest on Darth Bun. She could feel waves of confusion coming from that direction.

*Good job Jeianni, destroy your chances of ever making a normal friend.*
She turned to Grim,

"You wouldn't happen to know any Jedi Knights would you? And , uh, by the way.... What's anthropomorphic? "

[GrimJackal]

Grim returned Bun's wave with a grin, but noticed his buddy of old didn't seem quite as buzzed. He looks kinda bummed. Have to talk to him later on, he decided.

"I have no right to advise anyone how to proceed Daala," he said, staring at the wall. "I'm too cynical for one, which can kinda ruin a fantasy like real love. Anyway, Jeianna's advice is as straightforward as any. Logically, it is the format with which to proceed. Of course, no formula has ever been developed to cope with human hearts." He glanced Daala's way. "... Sorry. See what happens. Tell me how it goes, and please, prove me wrong. ... And thanks for the drink."

He sipped his new chocana, relishing the cold, and addressed Jeianna's query. "What's anthropomorphic? Well, I am, not to put too fine a point on it," he said, scratching an ear laisadaisically before brushing it aside dismissively. "Forget about it. Just think of me as a big plushie." He flashed a smile and continued quickly. "As for the other matter, well, I would hesitate to direct you. Fate would be a better guide where a Jedi is concerned." He stirred his drink and started one sentence before having second thoughts and switching tracks. "May I ask, why?"

[The Doctor]

The Doctor fades back into the box after temporary non-existance. He really had to learn to concentrate....
*Hey... I know that feeling, hmmm pragmatic cynical melancholy....*
"Grim! Long time no see, not since the previous Cantina... ancient egyptian gods and so forth... nice collar."
"Doc."
"Yes?"
"I'm not wearing a collar."
"I needed some anthropomorphic related comment... Oh and Jeanni... normal friends, you're probably not going to find any here, but don't worry their over-rated." said the man who packed an umbrella instead of a lightsabre standing next to the guy who looked like a Jackal.
"How did you know I was thinking that?"
"I read it. See. Two posts up."
"Doc stop confusing the girl and have a drink."
"Thanks Plushy."

[Clara]

Clara heard Gavre's wolf-whistled, and without pulling away from Glordindel, extends one hand toward her, fist clenched, but center finger raised.

[Admiral DaaLa]

Daala was chewing an excessive amount of gum as she waited for ther comlink to go off. The person in question had asked her out and promised her a phone call. Daala chewed on impatiently and nervously kept on looking at down at her comlink. SHe felt like such a Yuppie.

[Seanakin]

*Seanakin took his whiskey and water back to the table where Bun was still being very contemplative. *"Still contemplating, eh?"

"Yeah, I guess I might never figure this out."

Seanakin sat down, took a sip, then, for some reason, spit it back into the glass. *"Here's my most important piece of advice I could give after my heart got treated like the Empire treated Alderaan. *You can lose your heart to a woman...along with certain other things, like the remote...but do not ever, AND I MEAN NEVER, lose your head to one. *It looks all chivalrous and sith to show how you're so into someone that it's driving you nuts that you're so apart, but in reality it turns you into someone she may fail to recognize. *So just be yourself."

Good point, thought Darth Bun to himself. *He looked up at the ghost of Seanakin and said "Good point."

"Thanks, my good sir. *Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to return to the task of haunting Luthakin Manor. *Good luck. *And be careful."

"You too." *And with that, he vanished so quickly that Bun hardly noticed the waitress pointing to the whisky and water on the table and imploring "Hey, are you gonna pay for that?"*

[jedibrat]

Gavre sighs, raises her hands slightly in defense, and turns away from the ever-so-belligerent, publicly affectionate lovers.

[Jeianni]

Jeianni smiled at Doc.

"You're probably right, normal friends would just be boring anyways. "
She returned to Grim.

"Well, it all has to do with this luminescant sheen I can't seem to get rid of." * She looked pointedly at her hands which still projected the odd light. "It gets even worse when I sleep, my roommates at school had to wear protective goggles to bed. Then there was the one time I set the sheets on fire, and then the time I tried to take Intro to Holoplacks. That didn't work out well at all. I just can't seem to shake it, and it gets me in all kinds of trouble. I need to learn how to control it, and only a jedi knight can help me."

Grim nodded in understanding, one of his ears twitching slightly.
"Ah, well then, I don't suppose I could help you there." * * * Doc chimed in,

"Did you say you set your sheets on fire?"

Jeianni groaned and took her drink with her as she slinked off into a deserted corner of the cantina.

[Admiral DaaLa]

Some how Daala had the flu and had had to cancel her dinner with her new friend, but that was cool cause he was making it up to her tonite with dinner and something else fun. The only thing was Daala was till a little sick, paraniod and here comes the bombshell.... did she mention he was leaving the country next week. Daala looked up at Grim who was still next to her drinking away and muttered "He's going to Poland... for 5 weekes and he's leaving on Sunday... I found out yesterday!" Daala slammed her head on the table and ordered and double bourbon.

[DarthFlip]

Flip sat their half drunk and orders himself another drink. Reflecting on the good old days when he had friends and a family

[Clara]

Clara and Glorfindel came up for air. Clara spotted an ice bucket hee hee and began tossing pieces of ice at the back of Flip's head.

[glorfindel]

Sensing Flip's thought's and intoxicated state Glorfindel decided to have a little fun with his former partner in crime and began coercing Flip into believing that there were evill hampster's flooding into the room, devouring all in their path and surounding him on all side's.

For a short time Flip just sat absolutly stiff with fear, then he pulled out his lightsaber and cut a circle around himself in the floor, falling through screaming in abjact terror as the imaginary hampster's pilled in after him then ran full pelt to his ship where he could still be heard screaming.

"what did you do to Flip?" Clara enquired

"hey, why is it that every time someone goes insane and run's out of a room screaming about hampster's it alway's get's blamed on me? said Glorfindel sounding offended

"because you alway's make people think that there are evill hampster's are trying to eat them" replied Clara accusingly

"I told you that they are going to take over, oh sure they might appear cute and cuddly now but just you wait. It's all a deceptive facade designed to get the little beasts into stratiegically prime posission's and as soon as they have the order from their comander "The High Overfiend" then there wont be enough jedi, sith, uber-jedi, soldiers, etc to save us THEY WILL KILL US ALL I TELL YOU" Glorfindel was dribbling slightly by this time. "WE MUST PUGE THE GALAXY OF THE SPAWN OF THE DEVILL INCARNATE. WE MUST..." he stoped mid sentence, seeming to be having trouble controlling his eyes and limbs.

"I knew you couldent have that changed much since we last met, I can still drink you under the table" Clara grined as her highly intoxicated, verging on paraletic partner swayed uncoordinatedly and then winced when his head hit the table rather forcefully.

[Darth Bun]

*Looking on, Darth Bun couldn't help but laugh.*

"I am definitely home again." he said with a satisfied grin while taking a sip of his large beer mug. It was at that point he heard the bartender yell at the top of his lungs.

"HEY YOU! GET YOUR METALLIC ASS OUTTA HERE BEFORE I CALL THE PROPER AUTHORITIES!"

*Darth Bun spun around to see Alfred, his trusty protocol droid, standing in the door, with a gaggle (Yes, they do move in gaggles) of Jawas blocking his entrance. With a sigh Bun got up to help his friend.*

"It's Ok, he's with me." he told the Jawas, who parted like the Kaminoan sea to make way for Bun.

"Al! What are you doing here? I told you to hang tight!" Bun said, slightly irritated at his droid's independence.

"Cool it, Scrappy," said Alfred "I just found this in the ship, figured you might want to take a look." With that he handed Bun a small Holo-projector. Bun examined it closely and noticed that there was a movie loaded into it.

"Thanks Al." Bun said "Now get out of here and wait till I tell you to start the ship!"

"Surely, sir." Alfred said as he walked back to The Bird of Prey.

*Bun made his way back to his table, set the Holo-projector at the center of the table and activated it. The image flickered and then the image was clear. What Bun saw brought a tear to his eye, so much so that he promptly shut the projector off. He closed his eyes and reached out with The Force.*

"Where are you>"

[DarthFlip]

Flip re-emerges very peeved off, he glares at Glorfindel. Hey glorfindel, remember when I told you I would kill you last?

With a surprised look on his fac, Glorfinel replies "yes"

Flip says "I LIED" and in saying that shot a lightning bolt at him which instantly turned him into ashes!!!

Clara screams at Flip..How could you evil son of a b@#^h? Quite easily, Flip replies....He then pulls out is lightsaber and cuts Clara in half! You seem to be falling apart from Glorfindels departure says flip with a smirk on his face. Ill see around Clara ...thats if somebody throws you. Flip then exits the cantina.

*Your arf the man, refer to Drama notes Clara on solo performance*

[glorfindel]

Flip, dident realize that Glorfindel was still in his mind and what had just happened had only appeared to happen from his own point of view (that sound's familiar...) Clara and Glorfindel laughed and went back to their drinks, compleetly unharmed and still in one piece.

"He really is pathetic, to believe that I could be burned and that he could beat YOU with a lightsaber... HAHAHAHHAHA what a dumbass" Glorfindel laughed some more and began looking at the menue. he was hungry.

"I thought you were unconscious" Clara said, looking at Glorfindel accusingly "why were you pretending that you had just passed out?"

"I was hhoping you would try to take advantage of me, like that one time on bandkamp (a small planet on the shoulder of the belt of Orion) when I did pass out and I woke up suspended by my ancles and you were..." Glorfindel was cut off mid sentence

"I remember, and you have no chance this time. What did you slip into my drink that time anyway???" asked Clara looking serious but sounding bemused

"are you implying that I druged you to get you to..." once again he was cut off

"YES"

"It was a death stick... sorry. Would you like buy some death sticks?" asked Glorfindel

"You dont want to sell me death stick's" Clara said with a wave of her hand "you want to go home and stop being a moron"

"I want to go home and take you with me" replied Glorfindel. He was answered with a slap and look that would have sent a Rancor running for the hills.

Glorfindel had expected this reaction and grined, so did Clara. "You never could keep a straight face" Glorfindel said playfully. then he ordered a supersize wamp rat burger, and a double size serving of curied lentils.

"I hope that ship of your's had good ventilation" said Clara looking at the mound of food Glorfindel was carying.

He plonked it on the table "the first thing I checked for" he replied and began chowing down on the burger "Rat, this is a rat burger" he said eyeing the meat in the bun. "this is the best darn burger I've ever had" he looked very happy and continued devouring.

Clara looked on knowing that this could take some time, Glorfindel enjoyed his food.

[Jeianni]

Jeianni looked soberly at her drink, wishing with all her might that she wasn't sober. Another day, another credit, another wasted oppurtunity. She got up and walked to the bar, flipping a few credit chips to the barkeeper before she turned towards the door. The doors swooshed open in front of her, and the cool night air swept across her face, ruffling her hair. The twin moon's light automatically collecting about her , creating a somewhat angelic, if annoying, aura.

*Ah, well, I've got lesson plans to file anyways. Might as well head back to the Academy. Claral'll kill me if they're not finished by tomorrow*

Jeianni mutters as she strolls sedately towards the Jedi academy, miracuously situated through a secret portal, situated outside of the cantina, that leads to Dathomiri.

*I wonder if Mila's finished reaphoulstering our quarters? She seriously needs to file her claws down!*

[Admiral DaaLa]

Daala had been busy seeing her close friend when he got a mission to go overseas for 5 weeks. HEnce she returned to the cantina and waltzed over to the juke box. SHe didn't know if she should be happy or sad...i mean she was happy he was travelling the world seeing new and exciting places but she was sad cause she couldn't go with him. Nevertheless and indifferent attitude swept her over as she put a credit into the machine and picked a classic, King of wishful thinking by Go West. She started humming as the song went on "I'll get over you, i know i will. I'll pretend my ships not sinking. And i'll tell myself i'm over you cause i'm the King of Wishful Thinking....." Nevertheless she was seeing him before he left, tonite for dinner.

Daala sat down at the bar and ordered the vodka cranberry and began to think about the dilemma she was in...thank god she was still single that meant she would always be welcome here. SHe would pretend her heart was still beating even thought he was making a hole in heart. SHe looked over at the other patrons and saw Jeanni leaving without her comlink and she yelled "hey jeanni,hun wait i think your fogot this."

[jedibrat]

Gavre had by now finished her 16th drink or so and slumped down towards the counter. She let her hair drift over her face as her forehead came to rest on the cool bartop. She lay there in this manner for a few seconds, then proceeded to elevate her head about an inch. She then brought it down forcefully upon the counter, and steadily repeated the process.

:doze: ??? Well, at least it's not as forceful as it usually was...

[SonGokou]

2 guys walk into a bar... Whoa! Wrong room!

[Jeianni]

Jeianni's head whipped around as she heard her name. She saw Daala motioning towards her with her comlink in hand.

*Wanga! Almost forgot my comlink, again!*

Jeianni walked towards Daala. "Thanks! I would've been in so much trouble if I had lost another comlink. I think this is my third."

Jeianni gave Daala a closer look and noticed the somewhat bedraggled look about her, and resigned herself to doing the plans in the morning.

*Daala looks like she needs a little bit of estrogen replenishment (Girl Time style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif )*

"So what's been going on lately?"

[glorfindel]

with a grin and a satisfied belch Glorfindel finished his mountain of food and began looking around the room, not much was happening.

"killed anyone much lataly my dear?" he asked Clara, getting bored with the lack of action in the usually full and exiting cantina

"not as lately, not if you dont count those rancors that tries to eat me the other day" Clara replied equally bored "pitty there's no party at Bun's at the moment, that was alway's good for a laugh"

[Clara]

Clara picked up the ice bucket that was sitting in front of her, remembering. A grin spread across her face as she placed the bucket on the floor, and used her foot to push it toward the crowd.

She wondered who would be the first to trip over it.

[Admiral DaaLa]

'SOZ for the late reply people i've been working liek crazy!!!!!'

Daala looked at Jeanni it had been nearly two weeks since he left and a week without him calling her. His mission must have been important...or he was having a bloodly good time. SHe missed him like crazy and yet the fact that her x boyfirend had just broken up with his girlfriend had some how emotionally drag her away form her thoughhts of her beloved. MAInly because he called her the nite that they broke up and then saw her the following day ( my x bf and I are still friends, even thought hes a womaniser....but tahts another story) DAala put her head down on jeanni's shoulder and began to whimper. She still wasn't sure were she and her oversaea's boy stood they were awesome friend's and the nite before he left she had chilled with him at his apartment ( nothing serious happened...or worth retelling). There however had been an ongoing joke that i was proposing to him on that nite because i was giving him a ring ( my dad's a jeweller and made it for him). HE had started this joke and we had been playing that we were married for over a week. Then i saw him every nite and now i can't cause he's over sea's. Daala took a deep breathe as she recalled her x boy firend and how lately he had been so sweet to her ...why .... he had no chance. *

Daala suddenly became curious and asked Jeanni "why is it that the sluts/skanks always get the guys ...is it because i have too much self respect to throw myself at the evey guy i see? ow i dunno ...it seems to work acting like a dirty little girl...well to some degree. LAst nite one of my friend was all over all my mates i was not ammused even thou they were. It doen't matter in the end because nothing happened i didnt really care ...but is that the way to get a guys attention because inteligent conversation seems to fail."

[Clara]

Clara heard Daala's comment. "Try shooting them in the arse. That always worked for me."

[Jeianni]

Jeianni patted Daala on head.

"There, there, that's not true at all! Skanky girls don't get all the guys. And the ones they do get aren't worth wanting! Guys who'll fawn over a girl because she shows a little (or a lot of) skin have only one thing in mind, and it isn't love and respect!"

The Barkeep walked by and Jeianni flagged him down.

"Two corellian whiskeys, on the rocks please. Anyways Daala, you should forget about all of the other guys, and especially your ex! If Mazza is the guy you like, then you should focus on what you're going to do with him. Are you going to ask him out? Are you going to chill and see what happens? Just relax! There's nothing you can do while he's overseas anyways! Go home, take a bubble bath, eat some fudge or something equally chocolatey! "

Just then the drinks arrived and they sipped them slowly, reflecting on their thoughts.

[jedibrat]

I have not been able to stop singing this song tonight...


"If I loved you,
Time and again I would try to say
All I'd want you to know...

"If I loved you,
Words wouldn't come in an easy way,
'Round in circles I'd go...

"Longing to tell you
But afraid and shy,
I'd let my golden chances
Pass me by...

"Soon, you'd leave me,
Off you would go in the mist of day,
Never, never to know
How I loved you...

"If... I... loved you..."


...As far as guys go, I have no idea what triggers attraction. I just wish I knew how to get a guy's attention and keep it. I dunno, I think Male Attention Starvation is starting to slowly eat away at me...

Lately I've been smothered by this overwhelming feeling of having to do so much and yet accomplish so little... it's like I'm standing in a crowded room with people I don't know screaming and grabbing at me, and I can't find a familiar face anywhere. I'm looking for someone, and I don't know who he is, but I know I can't find him...

style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif ???

I dunno. Maybe I'm just crazy. Maybe I just need some semblance of a life to help keep me sane. Maybe I just need some help.

[Admiral DaaLa]

Daala's comlink had gone off that day its had said "eager to see you love Mazza". Thus she was currently stationed on cloud nine and loving it. HE had made her day after the emotionally disruptive evening she had had. The previous nite there had been a party an 18th to be specific. WHere her old group had been invited and ofcourse did everything they could to make her life a living hell that evening. NOt that she cared really. THey had played pass the parcel crossed with cherades ( she neva wanted to come but its was hre friends bday and she wasn't about to show how wesk she was). WHen it landed on her she ws told that she had to be sarah O'hare and pretend to be a supermodel going down a cat walk. THe crowd already thought of her as a boy stealer and a chic who thought that she was all that. Hence there reaction was ghastly. KODak moment for sure. HEr lacey little top and skirt with boots didnt help the matter. Daala had ahd the worst evening of her life not that they would have realised and not that it had effected her significantly but she had wasted a great clubbing opportunity with REAL friends.

A bit of background my X best friedn was in love with a boy last year who fell in love with me. I by no means reciprocated his feeling and made thata very clear to him, at the time i had a steady boyfriend. This howeva was discarded and i was this branded dirty little girl and boy stealer. 6 months later she got ova it we became best bubs again. 6 months afta that the same boy returns into her life and hence mine. He's firends with her and i've broken up with my previous boyfriend. Me and the boy become friends and still are (NOTHING MORE) but she can't handle it so she tells the guy i'm dating that i'm a dirty little girl and so on. Thats when the friendship ended in my book. She rings me 2 months later apologises for being a ***** etc.. explains the way she was feeling. I forgave her chose not to be friends again. i haven't seen her since, until last night. Were she had the nerve to call me "it" and demand that my friedns no longer associate with me.

I'm not hurt i'm apathetic and indifferent. Iknow those who are my real friends will remain those even if she spawns filthy ruomours about me. i know what i am and even more i know what i'm not.

[RollaFett]

As the long lost clone GollaFett wandered toward the cantina entrance, he saw an obviously deranged Sith Lord wildly swinging his lightsaber and shooting force lightening into the sky as he screamed, "Die Clara! Become Bantha fodder Glorfindel!" Not being too interested in this madman's ramblings, GollaFett deftly fired a tranqulizer dart into his hind quarters and continued on into the Cantina, but heard what sounded like, "You have not heard the..last..of....darth.....fl..ip.", before he fell to the ground, knocked out.

As he entered the Cantina he quickly scoped the joint. Some Sith, some Jedi, what appeared to be a shadow (but you can never be sure), and some apparant mortals. What sttod out more than anything was a familar sight...Boba Fett was keeping to himself in the far corner. 'Hmmm...of all the dumb luck.', thought GollaFett as he had not frequented this particular Cantina in quite some time. Their 'sibling' rivalry was pretty much kept to themselves, so a mild-mannered head nod of aknowledgement was all that was required between the two. Upon doing this, GollaFett found a stool at a corner of the bar and ordered an Pumill draught. While waiting for his drink, he suddenly noticed a female that looked awfully familar lying on the floor near his stool. 'Isn't that the girlfriend of that Correllian smuggler?', he thought. 'What's the name? Hmmm...Lois? Lucy? Leia? Ahh...that's it...Leia. But is it her?'

[Jeianni]

Jeianni looked at Daala with earnest interest. *What an unusual set of circumstances!*

"Well don't worry Daala! You've got friends here! And here's my Com channel if you ever want to talk, night or day."

Jeianni scribbled some near indecipherable numbers down on a bar napkin and handed it to Daala. *New friends, Finally!! And she's not freaked out by the glowy thing. Definately a plus! This is great! We can stay up all night , swappin' girly stories, and in the mornin', I'm makin waffles!!*

"Anyways Daala, I really do have to get back to the Academy and finish those lesson plans, but you've got my # okay? See ya!"
Jeianni gave Daala a brief hug before once again exiting the cantina. This time with comlink in hand.

*Daala, send me a message through your account here if you want k? I guess it's our equivalent of Comlinks :p*

[glorfindel]

"curios, I wonder what the story there is, Bobba never acknowledges anyone, specialy not other bounty hunter's" glorfindel murmered to Clara

"more curios still my dear is the two of them have almost identical aura's, almost like they were clones" Clara replied sounding a little confused

The new enterant just sat at the bar, sipping his drink and not showing any aparent interest in the rest of the occupants of the cantina. but, just like Bobba he gave off the same dissconcerting feeling that he was listening to every word uttered. Of course most people in the cantina gave off wierd vibes of some kind but most of those were trained in the way's of the force.

"Oh well, if he is anything like Bobba he wont be much for socializing. Would you like another drink?" Glorfndel asked still looking at the bounty hunter.

"You just want to go over and ask him where he got that Mandalorian armour, dont you?" Clara said jabbing Glorfindel in the ribs.

"Oh come on, you know I've alway's wanted a suit like that, I'd finaly have something to wear to job interview's. And you know, the roap launcher could have all sorts of interesting aplications style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sly.gif " Glorfindel said with a sly grin.

[RollaFett]

As his draught of Pumill arrived, GollaFett removed his helmet in order to enjoy his drink. As he did this, he sensed the secretive glances the other patrons were stealing, because as he well knew, it's a rare sight to see someone wearing Mandalorian armor without a helmet. Hell, Mandalorian armor was rare enough by itself. After seeing the face under the helmet, the onlookers began to seek out Boba, as if he would now do the same. Curiously, he had suddenly disappeared. No surprise to GollaFett, attention was the last thing that Boba wanted. Not that he sought it out himself, but it was just damn hard to enjoy a good drink with a helmet on, and he would be damned if it was going to stop him.
After the subtle commotion with the helmet had ended, GollaFett still noticed a couple down the bar paying a little too much attention to him. A quick wipe of the nose confirmed that there was nothing there to draw any more attention, so he continued to enjoy his drink.
One of the two was most certainly a Sith, the other...the shadow? 'Possibly, but you never can tell right off the bat', he thought. 'And I wonder if this passed out broad is that Leia that I've heard so much about? I guess its not too important, as long as she doesn't hurl on my feet.'

[Clara]

Clara handed Glorfindel another drink, which he quickly sipped, before spitting it out. "Milk?"

She smiled. "I know what you're like when you're drunk, and its not the way I like guys. If you were a different type of drunk, then I would hold you down and poar the strongest alcohol known to man down your throat, but as you are not that type of drunk, then you must settle for something a little less strong."

Glorfindel frowned. "What type of drunk do you like?"

She smiled devilishly and turned her attention to her drink, not bothering to answer. That smile said it all.

[glorfindel]

"you mean you like a consious drunk?" glorfindel replied, "forgo the alcahole, just hold me down and pour pineapple juice down my throat" :D

[RollaFett]

'Good, no vommiting on the feet, that makes me happy.' thought Gollafett as he sipped his draught. The couple secretly eyeing him (although it was hard for anyone to be secretive around him) had refocused on their own company for the time being.
'That Sith Lord certainly seems more enjoyable than most other Sith, maybe it's the prescence of that possible Other. She seems to have a way about her.'

He motioned the barkeep over and bought a round for the couple. Upon receiving the news from the barkeep the Sith aknowledged GollaFett with a slight salute and the Shadow just smiled in his direction, but ordered for the two of them. The Sith seemed mildly offended at this but accepted it nonetheless.

[Admiral DaaLa]

Daala immediately placed Jeanni's number in her comlink and thanked her kindly giving her a hug back. As Jeanni was leaving a cloaked figure walked into the room and walked up to Daala saying harassly " ARe you Daala???". To which she replied " and you would be..." but she was cut off as the he sat down next to her and ordered to drinks under her drink he placed a postcard chip and next to it a form wiht sign here for over nite delivery. Daala signed and the guy left....geezz thouse posties were geting weirder and weireder. Nevertheless, she opened the card and read the post card from MAZZA. A smile immediatley cretp over her face as she read ....Dear Daala,as you can't be here i decided to send you a little home .... she read on about his dealings and the weather until the end where she caught her breath as it read ...Take care in the melbourne winter ...Love Mazza P.S. i'll try bring some sun in a jar, especially for you.

Daala ordered another round ...for the WHOLE CANTINA!!! and dug into soem chips in front of her.

[Jeianni]

Jeianni's voice floats in over the buzz of the cantina and smal particles of light start to materialize near the cieling.

"I'm going on vacation for three weeks. Hasta Pasta mi amigos.!"

The light starts to dissipate as her voice fades away. She sits on her newly aphoulstered bunk in her room at the Academy and grins at Mila, her roommate. Mila stares back at her, jaw scraping the floor. Jeianni laughs.

"Bet you didn't know I could do that, now did you?"

[RollaFett]

A pretty voice from nowhere announced a vaction just after a round for the house had been purchased by some military commander. 'Ahh...life in the cantine was fun,' he thought, 'I've got to make suer I keep coming here.'

[Admiral DaaLa]

The "some" millitary commander looked over at the bounty hunter in the mandalorian armour. As rare as it was DAala smiled and could have probably indentified the exact make and time in which the armour was made...she indeed had a love for war. Well the stragetic aspects and finess of war, not the blood curdling requirements but in reality everything had a price. Her training in the Imperial army had not gone astray and as the only female admiral ever (according to the novels) she was proud of her historical backgrounds. It was strange however that this bounty hunter removed his helmet and that is what probably caught her attention. Smiling like a school girl Daala straigthened her posture and looked over to Golla inquiring into the bartenders service in getting him his drink on her imperial account and it was at this point she realised she knew the bounty hunter. She had indeed seen him many a times in several cantina's and smuggler hole's when she had only been a rookie officer.

[Rogue_0009]

The young and rakishly handsome fighter pilot, Ric Kiban, entered the bar. Took note of all the lovely ladies, the sith swinging lightsabres madly at each other, the passed out Rodian, and the Bounty Hunter in Mandalorian armor and muttered "this is my kinda place" adjusted his trusty tri-phase lightsabre and stepped up to the bar.
"Give me Whyrens reserve, straight up, on the rocks, and leave the bottle" he said lazily
"that is a pretty powerful drink, what does a kid like you need that for?"asked the bartender.
"I drink to forget,"
"forget what?"
"I can't remember" Ric said with a grin. As the Barkeep chuckled and got the drink.
Ric started on the whysky while enjoying the Boonta eve classic podrace on the vid screen, trying to work up the nerve to go talk to one of the women.

[flo fett]

Graf Copai slipped noiselessy through the small window in the toilets and clambered down over the sanitation system to stand in the fetid puddles that had gathered on the plastisteel floor. she stood still listening *as heavy feet thundered past the street level window oblivious to where she had disappeared. 'numb nuts' she thought with some satisfaction, now all she had to do was get back to her ship 'liquid entropy' with out those amatuers catching her. easy, she thought leaving the cubicle. A small scruffy looking rodian male looked up from his business at the urinals, 'what?' Graf asked annoyed walking to the door, where the hell was she?
Opening the door onto a bar room she relaxed, cool, she could have a few drinks, relax a bit before heading out to the spaceport. Throwing open her jacket with a confident flourish she stepped out into the bar...before slipping on a patch of spilt Alderaanain ale. she hit the floor with a crash, her blaster sliding across the floor and under a table, an acrid smell and creeping damp patch under her torso told her that her custom made poison of choice 'liquid entropy' was now gone the way of the alderaanian ale. she lifted her head peering through her now wild red hair and sighed, 'oh bugger', and let her head drop back onto the floor in embarrassment.

[Rogue_0009]

"have a nice trip the miss?" said Ric with a in the suavest possible manner considering he had ahalf a bottle of Whyren's reserve in him. "seriously are you all right? lemme grab your blaster" the gun suddenly whipping into his outstreched hand."let me get you a drink."

[glorfindel]

"Great, just what we need" Glorfindel thought to himself "another Casaonva with a lightsaber"

He dident even bother to look at them. instead he decided to go over and thank Gollafett for the drink and return the favour.

"Let's go thank the nice bounty hunter for the drink shall we my dear?" He said to Clara who was busy laughing at the other bounty hunter who had just sliped over in a puddle of ale.

Glorfindel dident much want to stay where he was anyway, he had highly sensitve olfactory sence for poison and the reek of the spilled "liquid entropy" was making him gag, though no one else seemed to have noticed.

[RollaFett]

The female miltary commander, upon closer inspection, an Admiral was stealing some rather obvious glances in his direction. 'Hmmm...do I know her? A stunning female form in an Admiral's uniform was a rare sight indeed, but not very familar. Hmmm...interesting.'

A minor commotion by the entrance quickly subsided as a cocky Jedi made his prescence known. Although with the lightening fast work he seemed to be making of his drink, his prescence would've become obvious soon enough.
Upon returning his attention to his drink, he noticed the Sith and Shadow coming down to his end of the bar.
'My, I'm certainly attracting some attention, aren't I?' he thought to himself. 'As long as there are no armor questions, man they get tiring after a while. But I guess they're inevitable.' He sighed quietly as the couple cozied up beside him, hoping it wasn't too audible. Even though he was a complete badass, he knew better than to annoy Sithlords with force capable companions. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif

[Admiral DaaLa]

As Daala pereved at the mandalorian armour some other eye candy caught her attention. A fighter pilot had just strolled into the cantina with that sly rogish appearance. Daala thought to herslef 'ooooooo i like, i like' :p as he tired to assit the bounty hunter that had managed to make a scene and beyond doubts a mess of the cantina floor. The whole cantina was now staring at the poor bounty hunter as she got up and confidently tried to clean herself up. Daala noticed that Gola was smirking and she sent him a sly smile over the bar and then looked back to the pilot sending him a "how you doing..." and natrually extending himthe same curtesy that the rest of the cantina had previously acquired.

[flo fett]

Graf took the hand that was offered to her and let the man with the charming smile help her up. remembering herself she quickly let go and began to try and straighten her clothing in as nonchalent a manner as possible, the man asked again if she was okay
'i'm fine' she mumbled 'just got a little overexcited there, y'know.thanks for helping me up' she took her blaster back and holstered it
'no problem' came the reply
the rest of the bar were all staring at her, bristling at this she decided to concentrate on her rescuer who was grinning madly as though trying not to laugh. Graf remembered her hair falling out of it's clip when she fell, itmust look like a haystack now, she tried to calm it running her fingers distractedly through it. she looked down at the dark stain of the escaped poison spreading across her midriff and sighed, turning to the slightly drunk but very courteous man she said tiredly
'you wanna buy me that drink now? i really think that i need it'

[Rogue_0009]

"hey barkeep, get this fine lady a drink" Ric yelled at the bartender.
The disgruntled bartender yelled back "what does she want?"
"Alderanian ale, if you've got it" the bounty hunter said.
"so do always make such grand entrances?"Ric asked trying not to laugh

[Clara]

Clara was about to answer Glorfindel when she heard a crashing noise. She turned and saw that a large Wookie had stepped in the ice bucket and fallen over.

"SCORE!!!" Clara laughed.

The Wookie stood and shook his fist in her direction, before pausing as he indentified her. He grumbled something as he stalked off.

"Fine then," Clara called after him. "Go tell Han. I don't care."

[flo fett]

Graf smiled despite herself and sipping her ale let the embarrassed tension dissolve away,
'yeah well, that was me trying to be pretty cool if you must know. as usual didn't quite work out that way, but then i'm not too good around people.Anyway enough about my antics can i ask the name of my rescuer?'
the man extended a hand, it shook slightly although Graf took this to be because of the half empty bottle of alcohol in font of him.
'Ric' he said as she shook it 'what's yours?'
'whatever you want it to be' she answered coyly before laughing at herself, 'no seriously, i'm currently Graf, Graf Copai'
'currently?' Ric asked intrigued
'yeah, i change it whenever the mood suits me, or..' she said looking around suspiciously at the other drinkers in the bar 'whenever it's necessary'.
leaving this hanging in the air she drank deeply, god she had been needing that drink. Fit as she was the chase through the streets had been long and tiring, her pursuers were stupid but they were also determind. need to get going soon she reminded herself, it would surely be only a matter of time before she was found here if she stayed and she needed to get the merchandise off this rock. her hand dropped to the pouch on her belt checking for the small but heavy contents within.she smiled, it was still there.
'so,' said Ric casting around for conversation topics 'you here for business or pleasure?'
Graf smiled teasingly 'i could tell you but i would have to kill you' she said. Rics charming smile faltered, uncertain for a moment. graf slapped his arm lightly 'i'm kidding! just a bit of bountyhunter humour' she took another drink as Rics slightly tipsy smile returned
'mind you Dengar didn't laugh when i said it to him either'
she sighed wearily, i told you i'm not too good around people. i think i need to work on my small talk'

[Rogue_0009]

"bounty hunter huh, must take you to all sorts of interesting places" Ric said
"yeah I guess it does, but you're a pilot you must see some interesting things yourself"
"It does but theres never any time to enjoy it much, my squadron keeps getting shuffled around before I have time to do the tourist thing. so all I get to see realy is through a cockpit on a strafing run a few klicks up and several times the speed of sound."

[Admiral DaaLa]

Daala breathed in and out then started singing.... 204 hours to 204 to go! take one down pass it around, 203 hours to go. 203 hours to go 203 hours. take one down pass it around. 202 hours to go..... and so on he was back on thursday morning........................................... ...............

[jedibrat]

Gavre had been sitting quietly at the bar, the whole time meditating and being her usual mildly-depressed self, sporatically turning around to see the entrances and antics of the other patrons.

Suddenly, she rose from her barstool and strolled over to a dusty jukebox. She grabbed a conveniently-nearby mike, threw a coin into the jukebox, and hit her button...

"Do you derive joy when someone else succeeds?
Do you not play dirty when engaged in competition?
Do you have a big intellectual capacity, even though that it alone does not equate wisdom?
Do you see everything as an illusion, but enjoy it even though you are not of it?
Are you both masculine and feminine? Politically aware? And don't believe in capital punishment?

"These are 21 things that I want in a lover
Not necessarily needs, but qualities that I prefer

"Do you derive joy from diving in and seeing that loving someone can actually feel like freedom?
Are you funny? A la self-deprecating?
Like adventure? And have many formed opinions?

"These are 21 things that I want in a lover
Not necessarily needs, but qualities that I prefer
I figure I can describe it since I have a choice in the matter
These are 21 things I choose to choose in a lover

"I'm in no hurry, I could wait forever
I'm in no rush 'cause I like being solo
There are no worries and certainly no pressure
In the meantime I'll live like there's no tomorrow

"Are you uninhibited in bed? More than three times a week? Up for being experimental?
Are you athletic? Are you thriving in a job that helps your brother? Are you not addicted?

"These are 21 things that I want in a lover
Not necessarily needs, but qualities that I prefer
I figure i can describe it since I have a choice in the matter
These are 21 things I choose to choose in a lover

"...Are you curious and communicative?..."

(Alanis Morrisette, "21 Things I Want in a Lover")

[jedibrat]

Sorry y'all, just felt like venting a bit through singing a favorite song... I actually was singing the song as I was writing the lyrics, lol. :roll:

What can I say, most of the time I can find a song that mostly tells my story (except the reference to sex... that'd be 21 Things I Want in a Husband...) :scratchchin: ;)

Would it be too much if I sang more songs later, or should I start a new box in Communications or whatnot?

P.S.: this new smiley is uncannily me... :banghead:

[Admiral DaaLa]

Daala saw the gaurve sining a realised it was charioky nite tontie in the singles cantina and hummed along with out any complaints, style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/trooperz.gif

[Clara]

<span style='color:7000CC'>Clara sighed. Things had suddenly gone dull, and she was suffering from writers block.

Right now I feel like style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/banghead.gif . I wish Flip was here. Then we could *style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/duel.gif .</span>

[flo fett]

'nevermind', she said with a sigh, 'i don't get to see much in the tourist way of things either. unless you count the windowsills of important men as interesting or if you have ever had a particular craving to stay for a few weeks in a Hutt clan keep..'
'naw' Ric said with a laugh 'i think you can keep the Hutts for yourself'
Graf ordered more ale, just one more and then i'll go she thought. but it was so nice just to be here talking to this stranger like a normal, well almost normal woman,just a break for a little while. she normally enjoyed her solitude but sometimes she just had to be around people and feel like a human again. as she was thinking this her hand dropped to her belt pouch and felt the contents, she smiled, they were still there. she surfaced from her thoughts..
'...and then he said "i don't know but it never made a sound like that before!"' Ric began to laugh, it was a pleasant warm sound and Graf smiled too enjoying it.

the door of the cantina burst open, four heavily armed men burst in and scanned the drinkers. Graf saw them a second before they saw her.
'Ric!' she shouted grabbing him and hurling him across the bar 'hit the deck!' and leapt after him as a barrage of blaster fire hit
crouched down behind the bar ric asked 'friends of yours?'
graf stayed his hand as it reached for the lightsaber on his belt, she pulled out her blaster
'this isn't your fight Ric, this is business'
she turned to the bartender who was also hiding, the mirror above them shattered spraying them in glass, she threw him a credit chip
'sorry about the mess' she said pulling a small gas canister from a pouch. pulling the pin she launched it in the direction of the armed men, and ran in the direction of an empty booth over on the other side of the bar room to draw their fire away from the other drinkers who were trying their best to get out of the way

[jedibrat]

Gavre had been standing over by the karaoke machine when the firing broke out. *She reflexively ignited her lightsaber just in time to send several bolts safely into the ceiling. *Who knows what would happen if this booze-drenched place catches fire! she thought. *She fought her way closer to the bar through the barrage of bolts, then dove over the counter, saber still drawn.

Gavre had no clue what this bounty hunter had done to run afoul of these thugs, but she knew it wasn't presently her problem. *"Not even going to ask questions on this one," she sighed resignedly to herself, deflecting more shots safely astray.

[Admiral DaaLa]

Daala was not ammused by the outburst, but then a bunch of mindless thugs never interested her, unless they were shooting directly at her. Daala pulled out her blaster and looked over the bar which she was now crouching behind wiht fellow patrons, gaurve, the clumsy bounty hunter, the pilot and others. It was that unfortunate moment when the idiot shot Daala's drink and it stained her crimson uniform. Daala was not impressed far from it, now she was annoyed as well. Well the stain was going to take ages to come out and plus her officers were gonna ask questions. SHe looked over at Gauvre, while attempting to get the stain off with the towel she had found on the near by hook, she rolled her eyes and muttered "and i was enjoying you singing too not to mention my drink... what you say we give this rather unique bounty hunter a hand?" Gaurve and Daala both looked at Graf, who didn't really look like much of a bounty hunter after her splashing entry. GAvre looked back at Daala with a wicked smile and said "on three....... one ...three."

[Clara]

Clara finished her drink and, leaving Glorfindel at the table, made her way to the bar. She dropped her cup onto the counter with a hollow *thunk*.

"Filler up mate."

As the bartender moved to fill up her drink, Clara turned to the others standing at the bar. "Good day ladies. Any luck with the guys yet?"

[Rogue_0009]

Not my fight,huh,sureRic thought sarcasticaly as his white sabre blade hummed to life :saber: he quickly deflaected a few shots away from the people sitting around him then lauched himself forward, landed on one foot momentarily and did a backflip over the attakers, stabbed his sabre straight back killing a trandoshan, in the same movement he removed the sabre and did a long side ways arcing cut taking most of the arm off a human, then twisted the sabre grip extending the blade to 2 metres and sliced the last one in to 2 pieces.
He turned to Graf and said "You bounty hunter's need to learn something about finesse. Now hurry there are probably more coming"
Graf nodded and dashed in the direction of the spaceport and into the night.
Ric deactivated the sabre sat down at the bar dropped a few creds and said "sorry bout the mess, and another round please"
"Coming right up" the Barkeep said then thoughtfully "do you think she'll make it?"
"I don't think, I now" Ric said slyly.

[Admiral DaaLa]

Daala laughed and said "we were gonna have a killing affect till hero over there jumped in the way....thankx darling for spoiling the party and i didnt even get to splatter someones brains." Daala continued to brush the rubble off her as the bounty hunter ran out of the cantina. SHe looked at Clara ordered herslef, 'hero', Clara and Guavre a drink and whispered to Clara "he's back in town...the mision is over he rang me today and where going out on saturday." Everyone noticed the sudden joy in Daala's face well any show of emotion was something Daala went on "and you huns how you going?"

[flo fett]

Graf ran through the shadows towards the spaceport gratefully enjoying the freedom of the night. she smiled thinking of Ric, she knew that he would try to fight even though she had told him not to, he was a good guy and that's what good guy's did. they can't help themselves. she hoped her present would make up for the hassle, it had been a little trinket she had picked up with the merchandise when she had smeared Dove Orans ass all over his spice den. it was probably his brother who had set the goons on her, but she wouldn't be caught out again, she had been foolish to try and relax amongst others. that was the price she had to pay she supposed, she smiled again thinking of Ric..still it had been worth it even for a few minutes company.

back at the cantina Ric clicked the lightsaber catch back onto his belt, as he did so his hand brushed his pocket. intrigued by a new shape there he pulled out the largest gemstome he had ever seen, it twinkled in the dim light of the bar. what the..? he thought. then he remembered Graf staying his hand on the lightsaber, she must have put it in the while he was distracted. he turned the gem over and over in his hands. what was all of this about?

[Rogue_0009]

After examining the jewel, he had no doubt Graf dropped in his pocket, He stepped over to the imperial officer by the bar and said "Sorry for hogging all the fun back there couldn't help myself really, it's been too long since I got to dismember some people. But how but I try and make it up to you, huh?

[Admiral DaaLa]

Daala looked at Ric with an ammused smile " Make it up too me? Yes that would be wonderful. But how do you plan on doing this sir?" Daala eyes Ric and jokes "Is that a Correlian Crystal in your pocket darling or are you just happy to be us ladies." Guavre and Clara look over at Ric and smile as he blushes. Daala extends her hand and says "I'm Daala and these lovely creatures are Clara and Guavre." THe girls nodd and greet Ric as he smiles and shaking Daala's hand saying "I'm Ric and ummm yes this is some kind of jewel that the young bounty hunter dropped."

[jedibrat]

"Hello, Ric," said Gavre. She ran her fingers through her waist-length brown hair as she surveyed the now-fairly-disheveled cantina. "So, how are you liking the place?" she queried, laughing.

This is sad. I am posting this at about 5 am, because about 20 minutes ago I awoke from the most vivid and horrifying nightmare I have ever had, and I am still too shaken to get back to bed. Has a nightmare ever affected anyone like this before? I know that I've never had one be this vivid or this disturbing before... ???

[Rogue_0009]

"Well, before the shooting started, this place pretty decent as far as cantina's go, at least the drinks aren't watered down."Ric replied.

[Admiral DaaLa]

Gaurve hun are you alrite... i hate those dreams. I've had one where you just come out shaken and confused. Mine was definately caused by stress.

Daala was smiling like a complete idiot had come back and seh had seen him last nite. They'd gone bowling at 3 in the morning after drinks and clubbing. SHe'd neva enjoyed herself as much as she did that night all she had to do now was flirt more. SHe was a complete idiot when it came to liking people she became shy and cautious which was the opposite to her playful, outgoing nature. This also meant that all her clse friends could pick who she liked and if she liked someone. That was very bad when you start liking a friend of yours.It was cool they were friends and there was no doubt in her mind that she would see him very soon.

As for the cantina Daala ordered another round for EVERYONE...yet again putting the Empire into more debt. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/inlove.gif *style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif *style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif *:pacattack: *:roll:

[Clara]

Clara smiled, accepting her drink, and planning what she would do to Flip next in the battle thread, having watched "Total Recall" the night before.

[Grim Jackal]

Grim took a long slurp of chocana and scanned the room, having blanked out for a time. He stalled for time and, using his uncannily average ability to look back over history and his eerily limited power of patience, scanned the vacant period. I see... He stood quietly and bit nervously on his lip before clearing his throat and addressing the cantina:

"I have three free drinks sitting in front of me that I can't possibly finish. Who wants some? Come on, these things are huge. ... They're banana and chocolate, who are you to refuse?"

[Admiral DaaLa]

Daala looked over at Grim and smiled"Thanks hun but seeing that they're on me i'll pass... how you been anyways long time now wake up?"

[Clara]

Clara glanced at the drinks and smiled politely. "Sorry Grim, but I'll have to pass. You never know, you might try to poison me."

[The Doctor]

The Doctor phased back into existance, having temporarily been unobserved by everyone (including himself) and therefore not existing in any particular state.
But what brought him back was much more important than mere quantum physics....

"I'll have them! What? Ok fine, at least pass one over...."

[Grim Jackal]

Daala looked over at Grim and smiled"Thanks hun but seeing that they're on me i'll pass... how you been anyways long time now wake up?"

"Ah, Daala, good to see you again. Sounds like everything's going smashing. Delightful, delightful. Oh, and me? Well, it's not really a furry world out there. I make do," he said, grinning devilishly and flicking at the glasses in front of him one by one.

Clara glanced at the drinks and smiled politely. "Sorry Grim, but I'll have to pass. You never know, you might try to poison me."

Grim clutched at his chest as if struck, but the grin and the look in his eyes were frozen. "Clara, I'm hurt." He rolled his hand theatrically. "I was acquitted, and apologised several times." He turned back to his drinks. "Off the record, of course."

The Doctor phased back into existance, having temporarily been unobserved by everyone (including himself) and therefore not existing in any particular state.
But what brought him back was much more important than mere quantum physics....

"I'll have them! What? Ok fine, at least pass one over...."

"Doc, you're a life saver," mumbled Grim around the two straws now stuck in his muzzle, each leading to a different glass. He slid the third chocana Doc's way, and glanced up curiously. "You have medical coverage, right?"

"They sell it at the door," replied the Doctor curtly, staring dubiously at the icy mixture before him.

[jedibrat]

"Grim, Doc, long time no see..." remarked Gavre, "What's been up, guys?"

Daala: Yeah, I can't stand those kinda dreams, yet recently I've been plagued with them nearly every night it seems. *There was an especially bad one just a couple of nights ago - the dream itself took place in my house, at night; so when I woke up, I couldn't tell if I was still in the dream or not... confusing just isn't a strong enough word... style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif
