At the word 'eat', Terra's stomach started to growl and she realized that she hadn't eaten since she had magically poofed here. It was time to get some grub, or at least a snack or something and figure things out from there."Speaking of eating...I should probably grab something. Can't think on an empty stomach after all."

*It was Jake who had the response to that, as he took Terra's hand and started to lead Terra toward where the food was.*
Right over here! There's a lot of food from all over the place, and it's all delicious!
*Then it registered to him that he was holding Terra's hand. He blushed a little, releasing it when they were at the food area, then stammered as he attempted to get his mind off of it.*
Er, just watch out for the ribs though, they're kinda messy...

*Culex hadn't left the food area since arriving here, as it was the only thing here that had caught his attention. He must have sampled everything here at least three times by now, but he couldn't stop. It was all so good, and eating was a great activity, one he wouldn't get to do once he returned to being a meager AI. He was examining his plate, which had a good amount of food on it already, but plenty of empty space as well.*Might as well add the other two or three I'm gonna need now. *More people approached the food area, a woman and two young kids. They seemed familiar to him somehow, and vague memories of teasing, getting his ass kicked, and getting burned up by a planet's core rushed into his mind. He couldn't make any sense of them though, nor knew how to react. What'd he do?!*Hello  *... too obvious. Guess he would have to deal with this one then.*

When she had finished loading her plate, she turned back to Jake."Do you and Morgan want to come sit with me?" |

As Ice, Jena, and Lyssa made their way through the crowd toward the bar, Ice heard a voice she hadn't heard in a few years. One she'd never thought she'd hear again. Just as she turned around strong arms swept her up in a big bear hug. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she laughed. "Reyn! By the Gods, I never thought I'd ever see you again! You look amazingly well for an old dead guy. You should come have a drink with us." She grinned with a teasing sparkle in her eyes. Reyn had been one of the few Mando's she knew and respected - and by some twist of fate and a long drawn out story that we won't get into right now, he was hers and Jena's ancestor. When he set her down on the floor again she gave him a kiss on the cheek and pulled him toward the bar. She was about to order a drink when another woman, a Zabrak (Aya), introduced herself. Arching an eyebrow at the woman, Ice was confused at first by the womans notion that she knew her father. Looking a little perplexed, Ice drank down the shot of whiskey the bartender placed in front of her. Eying the woman, Ice realized who the womans father might be."Your father? That wouldn't by any chance be The Admiral, would it?" She asked, with interest, as she took three of more shots from the bartender and handed them to Jena, Lyssa, and Reyn....... "I am Reyn Skirata, Isis' grandfather. Bu'ad, introduce me to your friends." |

*Morgan smiled as she followed Jake and Terra to where the food was, helping herself to some food as well. Then another voice, one addressed to them it sounded like, saying "hello." Morgan looked up curiously to the smiling face of Culex?! Morgan's eyes widened and she looked around nervously. Culex... someone she hadn't dealt with in a long time. What'd she say? What'd she do? Um...*
H-... Hi Culex! Um... you wanna come sit with us or something?
*Wait, why was she inviting him along? Didn't they have a shaky relationship at best? Well maybe he would decline, he didn't seem the social type to begin with. So... no harm in asking? She hoped?*

*An invitation? To join them?! That was unexpected, and nice, and... and this was a trick wasn't it? An attempt to lure him into another one of her schemes that ended in self-inflicted pain on himself wasn't it? Okay to be fair one of those times wasn't her fault and another he had instigated it... But still, he didn't like this. He'd just quietly float away with a polite decline...*
no
*... so much for polite. After a silent moment, he turned and floated off, then discovered something he hadn't noticed before: Fortune cookies. Figuring "why not," he took one and cracked it open, reading the fortune aloud inside.*
"One who is way too insistent on their views will find few who agree with them." That's not wise. :/
*He crumpled it up and tossed it away, devoured the cookie, then went back to his food.*

Terra sat down with Jake and Morgan, noticing the strange person that Morgan had spoken with but it seemed he didn't want to join them. She started to eat slowly, figuring she should pace herself for when the party started. She didn't want to get too full too fast. "So who was that you were talking to?"

*Morgan was happy to sit down, having felt like she had been on her feet for probably far too long. But Terra suddenly asked about Culex, and honestly Morgan was surprised that had taken that long. She wasn't sure what to say or how to describe him, or at least in a way that made sense. Maybe it would be better just to keep the answer simple.*
He's... weird. I don't see him a lot... but he's really weird.
*And that was all there was to it.*

-Z'har Yes well, fifty years is a fair bit to make up. For now, perhaps we could try out the dance floor?Off to one side of them, a rather large Ballroom was visible from where they stood, & Z'har motioned to it as he spoke."Any excuse to get your hands on me, I see," she replied with a toss of her head, though to be sure she was by no means averse to his suggestion. In fact, she remembered an occasion once, years ago, when they had first met at a dance. That was back under the Phoenix Imperium though, and he'd given her a black rose. The second time he had done so was when she had collected a bounty on herself and arrived on Etti IV. Very interesting occasion that, with momentous consequences for both of them so far.
She noticed Ice Matango, and a few other people that she knew by reputation if not by actual face. Terra seemed to be enjoying herself with the Calmcacil clan, probably a result of her practical residence on Felucia for a time.Wilhelm feigned being hurt by her words as he escorted her along the Halls length towards a private lounge area, where security was tougher and allowed in certain Sithies Team Members=Dr Wilhelm Van Buuren=Oh Shia, you wound me... You don't have to be mine, for us to have a little fun... Besides it's hard for me to allow someone so beautiful to not enjoy the extra privileges in life... Wilhelm lead Shia past the guards into the spacious lounge area that was equipped with its own bar, couches, entertainment system, live uplink to the stage, as well as privacy screens that could be activated should the situation arise (a feature Wilhelm had specifically asked for)=Dr Wilhelm Van Buuren=So... What do you think? Wilhelm asked as he winked, before managing to slip the mug of Tihaar from Shia's hands and taking another swig of it. He had a distinct feeling this was going to be fun "I have already wounded you? Just think, I wasn't even trying...yet." A sidelong smile accompanied the dancing light in her eyes as she was fully aware he was playing things up. After all, that is what the Sithies are about, isn't it? She noted the heightened security as escorted by Wilhelm she was getting to see a different side of the ongoing event. "As if I would ever be yours," Shia retorted, mock disdainfully, before continuing in a slightly more serious tone, "I tried that whole 'belonging' thing once---it didn't turn out so well, just ask Reyn." She shrugged, before gently elbowing him in the side, "And you consider yourself one of the extra privileges in life, do you?" Shia challenged him, even as he stole her mug of tihaar. When she went after it, her fingers brushed against his with an electric tingle and for the first time she suddenly looked up into his eyes for the first time."I think it's...great, so far..." she answered his question in a low tone. |

"Wade! Welcome back to the galaxy of the living!" I almost squealed as our former crew member unexpectedly appeared in the hall. Wade was supposed to be dead, although there had always been a tiny amount of doubt in my mind (and a very large amount of doubt in Karana's devoted mind). "Is this just a special appearance for old times' sake, or are you really still among us? 'Lora has been worried sick about you." Ordinarily he would have been right to fear for the safety of his arm as he made contact with my back, but tonight was different. Not only was I genuinely glad to see him (to my surprise), but I was under orders to behave myself, and the Writer had no intention of letting me stray from that commitment. Beaming, I gave him a quick half-hug, and allowed him to lead us toward the bar.“Pretty sure you mean Mack Revette, my…uh…..” Yeah, what was he now? Lover? Ex lover? Friend? Stranger? What do you call someone you used to sleep with that seemingly died and left you for two years, and then shows up a few months ago wanting everything to be how it was? Malora flailed a hand as they neared the bar, looking for the right words, but she came up short. “Um. He ran with Fel and I before you two showed up. We thought he was dead. Apparently not,” she said, shrugging. “Hell of a gunslinger, missing more than half of his marbles, definitely. He’s actually helping Oz and I track you down, Connors.” She patted the hand on her hip. “We’re coming to rescue you! And then we're going to rescue Fel, 'cause the brilliant Cap'n went and got himself nabbed by the Imps." "Your?" Not just a former crewmember then. Something more personal (and knowing 'Rana, something a LOT more personal). He didn't get a chance to go into deeper detail on the subject though, as Karana spilled out what little she could in a short conversation and mentioned his thought-dead status. "Seems to be a lot of that going around lately. The whole being dead thing. It's not as relaxing as you might think, though there are a few perks worth mentioning." His smirk broadened into a grin again as Liya spoke up in far more exuberant a tone than he'd ever heard her use before. Apparently, she'd missed him. He guessed 'Lora wasn't the only one that had been worried. "I'm afraid I can't really say. I don't seem to have a pulse anymore, but I'm still walking and talking so I'd guess it's at least fifty-fifty." The news about the captain didn't go unnoticed either, and Wade's mind had already begun churning out a few dozen preliminary questions to ask the pair of women when he remembered none of it would do any good. Back in reality, he was still stuck in that force-forsaken arena fighting it out day after day with no memory of who he used to be. He wouldn't remember any of this either. So much for trying to help out. "I'm sorry to hear about the captain. I'd help if I could, but the whole 'currently being dead' thing kinda limits my options. Once 'Lora rescues me though, the empire better watch its back." He paused to consider what he'd just said, then turned to Sinistra. "Uh, don't take that personally. And congrats on the win!" Before he could congratulate further, Ade managed to prove just how bad his hearing had gotten over the years and called Wade Wayne, right after Liya introduced him to Sin. "Huh. Good to see his hearing hasn't improved." Then in a louder tone as the other man left. "It was good to see you again too, Draykon!" He shifted his gaze back to the three women and wrinkled his brow in thought as he wrapped an arm around Karana's shoulder. "Where were we? Oh! Right. Congratulations." His eyes focused on Sin again as his smile returned. "I haven't really been keeping up with current events, what with being dead and all, but you're the new emperoress! That's gotta be fun." |

Wilhelm had chuckled when she said she would never be his. Aside from the fact it was only the power of the Sithies that had brought Shia into this world, there was also the fact he preffered to never have commitments. It was a good think Shia felt the same way, cause otherwise things would have gotten awkward. He smirked as she elboed him before challenging him about whether he was one of the extra privileges
=Dr Wilhelm Van Buuren=
Only if you want me to be...
He then met her gaze as she made a grab for the mug of Tihaar, feeling the tingle as she brushed her hand against his, before she answered his question. He was quite enjoying the perks of being him to at this moment, as he passed her back the mug of Tihaar, sliding his free hand around her waist as he pulled her in closer
=Dr Wilhelm Van Buuren=
I gotta say, it's nicer sharing it with someone..

The situation seemed to have calmed down now, as three separate forms slowly walked to the bar. Together, Dante, Arcturus, and Baylan silently shook their heads in unison and took a seat on the stools.
=Baylan=
"Whiskey."
=Dante=
"Red wine."
=Arcturus=
"Anything brightly colored. Yeah. Taste the rainbow bitches."
Nudging Arcturus, Dante jerked his head at the nearby Fel crew and Sin. Hooting, Arcturus stood up and walked over, wrapping his arms around Wade.
=Arcturus=
"Oh my! It's wade and company! Wait...you look different...did you pull an Arcturus? I would know - went through fifty three variations in six years...or however long the universe has been open. Long enough for me not to care to count. Did you ever meet this variation? Or did you meet the lizard. I think it was the lizard. Or was it the whale? I can never keep the two straight.
Clearing his throat, Dante came up behind Arcturus and put a hand on his shoulder to steady him. Dante looked...bored - very much as if the entire thing was beneath him, or summarily didn't concern him. On the flip side, he looked as sane as he possibly could - downright polite and cordial even. He smiled warmly at the crew, and even inclined his head slightly.
=Dante=
"We should have dressed for the occasion."
=Baylan=
"Uh...uh...what is the occasion?"
Arcturus winced slightly and nodded assentingly at Dante's comment on dress - both sharing much the same tastes in fashion being from Serenno - though both rolled their eyes at Baylan's comment.
=Dante & Arcturus=
"Shut up newbie!!"

"Maaaaaybe?" She quickly downed the rest of the tihaar and pitched the empty glass over her shoulder without taking her gaze off Wilhelm. Shia slipped a hand up to his bowtie and deftly untied it, "So, do you have to remain mostly presentable in order to go back out there?" She nodded back toward the direction of the crowd of Sithies attendees that they'd just gotten away from. |

A torrent of fire shot into the air as Corr used his wrist-mounted flamethrower to light a fat cigar that stuck out from between his clenched teeth. His posture was one of intense pain and torture, something that was at odds with the revelry going on around him. He had some vague impression that the ceremony had finished, though he had no clue as to what had transpired. An update blinked in his visors HUD, something that he had been studiously avoiding for the last twenty minutes. His languid rise from his leaning position on the bar sparked a flurry of activity as people strove to get out of the armoured behemoths way, ducking this and and that to avoid the savage hooks and barbs that adorned the beskar-clad form. The smoke curled up from the huge cigar to wreath the demonic helm in a halo of noxious fumage, adding to the nightmare vision it inspired.
With footfalls clanging the klaxons of doom Corr Vhett made his way towards the bar and ballroom for the after party. If this was to be his last showing here then he was determined to drink as much of the Whills booze as possible...

*The ballroom? The party was being moved elsewhere? Well then, that was where they needed to go then! Grinning, Morgan hopped out of her seat, not waiting for compliance from either Jake or Terra as she attempted to drag them off toward the ballroom and to the party! Time to cut loose!*

He looked at Liya and Karana and nodded, "Ladies," he leaned over and gave Sin a kiss on the cheek just to the left of her lips, "see you at the after party?" He nodded with a smile before looking back to Wayne, "Wayne, nice to see you again." And before another word could be said he buttoned his suit jacket, finished off his champagne and walked toward the stage. Before he could congratulate further, Ade managed to prove just how bad his hearing had gotten over the years and called Wade Wayne, right after Liya introduced him to Sin. "Huh. Good to see his hearing hasn't improved." Then in a louder tone as the other man left. "It was good to see you again too, Draykon!" He shifted his gaze back to the three women and wrinkled his brow in thought as he wrapped an arm around Karana's shoulder. "Where were we? Oh! Right. Congratulations."

Wilhelm smirked as Shia replied with a drawn out maybe, before stealing the mug back and downing the rest of the Tihaar. Wilhelm smiled as she untied his bowtie
=Dr Wilhelm Van Buuren=
Well, I'm off duty now, so presentability isn't an issue...
He whispered back in reply as he leaned in closer to Shia, quickly activating the privacy screens, before cupping Shia's cheek as he gently gave her a kiss

Shia didn't say anything, letting him pull her closer into a deep kiss that seemed to have a surprising amount of passionate intent behind it.
"Good, then," she finally replied, and suiting the action to the words, the Mando woman slipped her hands from his shoulders to his collar and simply ripped his shirt open.
