Serena squealed and her grip on Morgan loosened as she was tickled. It was something that she had hoped would have stayed secret, since she was actually quite ticklish, a weakness that her brother had exploited time and time again back home during any dispute. As Morgan pulled herself free, Serena stumbled back and kicked some water towards her. Though she was on the ropes, Serena wasn't going to surrender just yet.

*The squeal meant that her plan had worked, and when Morgan felt Serena's grip loosening, she pulled free, escaping and backing off, sending a few splashes as she went. Serena had the same idea though, kicking water after Morgan as she retreated. Morgan crouched down, turning slightly to the side and bringing her left arm across her body, then she jumped up, spinning in a full circle as she sent a spiral of water in all directions, the brunt of it aimed toward Serena. When she landed, she crouched again and once more sprang up, but only using her hands to send more water in Serena's direction before swimming back. Morgan wasn't going to try latching onto Serena again unless she could get behind her...*

Serena shielded herself from the wave, trying her best to return fire as Morgan continued to pressure her with repeated waves of water. She was starting to run out of ideas, as it turned out that Morgan was quite adept at this water fight thing. She started to gather the Force to her, figuring now was the time to go all in. Seeing that Morgan had retreated a little, Serena advanced towards her, still building up her energy. She let herself sink under the surface of the water, still moving towards Morgan. With as much power as she could muster, she released the built up Force power and sent a large wave of water towards Morgan. If this attack didn't send her reeling, then she would truly be out of ideas.

*Now Serena was advancing, so Morgan again brought her elbows and fists together, sinking just a little as she built up energy and let it flow into the water around her, binding it to her arms as guides. Morgan was now ready to defend herself against just about anything Serena could throw at her. Which seemed to be a large wave of water. Reacting quickly, Morgan submerged herself a little more, keeping her arms together, then jumped up, throwing her arms skyward and then spreading them to either side. This created her own large wave to resist Serena's, but this turned out to be a bit of a mistake; water only crashed through and poured down upon her, knocking her down into the water. She surfaced, spitting water, but with any luck, her attack at least hit Serena as well...*

Serena saw that Morgan had countered her wave, but the two walls of water only went right through each other struck both girls. Serena stumbled and lost her balance as the wave hit her, and she quickly sprang up to see if Morgan was still on her feet. Spitting out some water, she started giggling as she realized that they had hit each other with their respective attacks at the same time. They might have to call this one a draw...
Still giggling, she walked over."You OK? Maybe we should call this a draw, huh?"

*If there was any consolation to being struck by Serena's assault, it was that Serena herself had been sent reeling from Morgan's counterattack. But afterward, instead of retaliating, Serena only laughed and giggled, approaching her and suggesting they call this match a draw. Honestly? That was okay with Morgan, and at least now she had a taste of what Serena could do; good for future strategizing?*
Yeah, that's good.
*Morgan approached the shore and sat down in the shallow portion, hugging her knees. She couldn't really think of anything else to say, so she was silent for the moment; just sitting was good too. Serena might have something to say anyway.*

"OK then!"Serena giggled, honestly glad that Morgan had accepted a draw. She had run out of ideas and wouldn't have been able to keep up a good fight for much longer. Morgan was a formidable water fighting opponent, and she wished that the girl had been on her team back home...
She sat down next to Morgan in the shallow water, leaning back on her hands."So...what else do you do for fun out here?"There had to be something else to do out here besides swimming and water fights, not that she was complaining about either of those things. But Morgan had lived here for awhile so she had to know some other ways to play.

*Morgan didn't really have to think at all about her answer to Serena's question and she grinned.*
I swim a lot, but sometimes I just take walks through the jungle or go for rides on Rush, and maybe I go look for new places I haven't seen before. Since my mommy protects me, I can take care of myself and go places without worrying too much about getting in trouble, but there are still dangerous places... like anywhere rancors are...
*She sounded serious for a moment, then cheered up and giggled.*
Usually I do it naked, just because it's fun.
*She looked at Serena and giggled again, then looked over the lake again.*
If I go deep enough, I can even make it to the Felucian village too, which is really fun. I like visiting them, though I don't get to do it all the time.

Serena found herself a little envious of Morgan's ability to explore a dangerous planet like Felucia almost at will, but that envy faded when it occurred to her that she could quite easily explore those places right along with her. Haruun Kal was far too dangerous for anyone to freely explore, even if you had an akk dog like Rush around. She hoped that she would have enough time to explore this place with Morgan. As long as they avoided the rancors..."Wow...that sounds fun!"
Her eyes widened when she said that she did this exploration in the nude."You do all that walking naked?"Her first question would have been if Morgan was afraid to be seen in the nude, but it quickly occurred to Serena that it would be highly unlikely that someone would be peeping on them in the middle of the jungle. She blushed a little bit as she replied."That...actually sounds like it might be fun..."
Serena guessed that the Felucians were the natives of the planet, but she had obviously never seen one before. The village must be far away if Morgan didn't get to go there very often."The Felucians are the natives of the planet, right?"

*Morgan beamed when Serena said that everything she said sounded like fun. If Morgan was lucky, she'd be able to get Serena to come out here for exploration and adventures just like she had with Terra. But when Serena asked with surprise that Morgan did all that naked, Morgan only giggled and nodded. A skinny-dipper Serena may have been, but apparently Serena's nude fun ended there. Maybe Morgan might be able to change that...
... which sounded even more likely when Serena, albeit with some blushing, admitted it sounded like fun, which made Morgan giggle with hope.
Serena then chose to ask about the Felucians, correctly guessing that they were the natives of the planet. They wouldn't be able to see Felucians today, probably, but someday soon they would be able to. Hopefully. Morgan nodded, but then tilted her head to the side.*
Do you know anything about them?

Serena shook her head, though she thought it would have been obvious that she knew pretty much nothing about the Felucians, other than what she had already correctly guessed just a moment ago."Nope! You'll have to fill me in."She smiled a little, waiting to hear what Morgan had to say.

*Serena knew nothing at all about the Felucians? Well, this would be Morgan's opportunity to show her knowledge on the subject, maybe get Serena excited and anticipate a visit to the village someday soon.*
Well...
*Then she stopped. What would it be like if Serena knew nothing and met them with no expectations whatsoever? Now that was a reaction Morgan would like to see, so she only grinned and giggled.*
I'll let you see yourself! ... well, not today, but soon I hope!

Serena grinned, now very much looking forwards to an extended trip into the jungle to meet these Felucians. She was sad that they couldn't go today, but that was all right. They could go later and it would surely be a lot of fun. As for walking there naked...well maybe that would be fun too. Just as long as there weren't any boys around, then she wouldn't mind leaving her clothes off."I hope we can go real soon! And..."Her face turned a little red again."...I suppose I could walk there naked. If there were no boys around."

*Morgan giggled when Serena said she hoped they'd go real soon, then admitted that she could try walking there naked... ... as long as there weren't boys around. Ah, there it was; Serena was too embarrassed to be seen by boys. Personal embarrassment, or something she was taught? Looking mock-serious, Morgan decided to play with her.*
Well, I dunno, I might bring my brother along, and he likes walking naked too, so you might have to do it some other time, or just try to get used to it.
*She shrugged, meanwhile trying her hardest not to grin. What she said wasn't true at all. Well, mostly; Jake did like to walk around the jungle naked with her, but only with her or other family, or other trusted individuals. Around a girl his age? He'd be far too embarrassed to. But Morgan couldn't resist spinning a story just to see how Serena would react...*

Serena's eyes widened when she mentioned she had a brother, who also liked to walk through the jungle naked. She hadn't mentioned a brother before! And he also liked being naked in the jungle!? Well...maybe it was a sibling thing. Serena covered her mouth as her face turned a slightly darker shade of red. Being naked in front of a boy was one thing but if they were both naked? That might be unbearable..."B-but...I d-don't wanna be seen by a boy! My mom told me to always have clothes on in front of boys!"Her mother had always said to stay modest after all, and it was just something she had grown up with. Girls weren't supposed to be seen naked by boys, and boys weren't supposed to be seen naked by girls. That's the way it always was at home.

*Serena's reaction was priceless. The way she brought her hand to her mouth, the shade of red she turned, her nervous declaration that she didn't want to be seen by a boy... it was too much, and Morgan folded her hands over her stomach and kicked her legs, stirring up few splashes as she giggled loudly. When she settled down, she grinned reassuringly at Serena.*
Don't worry, I was just kidding! ... sorta. Jake does go naked with me, but only with me. He's too shy to do it in front of anyone else. I'd like to take him to the village again sometime, but if you want to try naked hiking, I can take him some other time, it's okay.
*But at least now Morgan had a reason for Serena's perceived shyness: It was taught to her by her mother. Morgan wasn't sure how to approach this, especially since it was a rule given by her living mother, and Morgan didn't really want to get in trouble with her family, or get Serena herself in trouble for that matter. Not that she ever had to worry; Jake wouldn't be an issue. Though she did at the very least want to get those two to spend them time together, if at least just so Serena would have more friends and start to know more people at the base...*

Serena was relieved to hear that, though her face remained a little red. But if she wanted to take Jake to the village too, then maybe she would just hold off on a naked hike through the jungle. Besides, she did want to meet Jake, and that might be a lot less awkward if they were both clothed."Oh...well that's good. How soon do you think we can visit the village?"She blushed a little bit again as she added."And...could we try a naked hike right now?"As long as there weren't any boys around, she wouldn't mind. As long as there was time, as she still had to unpack her stuff at the base. They probably wouldn't be able to stay out for too much longer.

*Morgan grinned at Serena's relief wen she heard the truth about Jake; though she was still internally debating whether or not she could challenge both of their character traits. With herself and Jake, it didn't seem her parents minded too much about their activities, though her father did stress discretion, and Morgan promised she would; their new mother, on the other hand, Morgan had no idea how she felt about it, and wondered if it was probably for the best she didn't try to approach the subject quite yet, just in case. But Serena clearly had some ground rules set by her mother, ones Serena seemed to want to follow, so, unlike with Terra, challenging that viewpoint wouldn't be as simple and straightforward.
Before Morgan could think and give an estimate as to when they could go visit the village, Serena asked if they could try a naked hike right now. Morgan giggled and stood up, turning away from the water and marching toward the shore as she answered.*
Why not? We can for a little bit before we go back to the base.
*Morgan crouched down by her bag, stuffing her dress inside, then holding it up so that Serena could put her own clothes inside it for now.*
And we can probably go to the village... Um... I dunno. We better find out what you need to do first, because we probably need at least two days so we can make it to the village, have enough fun there, then come back. Three would be nicer, cuz we could spend a whole day there, but I dunno if we can make that happen...

Serena smiled and followed Morgan to the shore, gathering up her clothes where she had left them earlier. After Morgan had put her dress inside, Serena did the same with her clothes, listening as Morgan outlined the plan for visiting the Felucian village. She said it would have to be a few day's journey at least, a trip that probably would be dangerous if not for Morgan's special abilities. Hopefully they could get permission soon, but it might have to wait for a little while as Serena adjusted to her new surroundings.
She smiled."I guess we'll have to wait until I get a little more settled in. But I really hope we can go soon!"She giggled and looked around the jungle."So where do we hike to?"

*Morgan nodded when Serena acknowledged that they probably would not have the time to go visit the Felucian village for at least a little while until Serena was settled in. That just meant Morgan and Serena would have to keep tabs together on everything that was happening then find a good time to head off on their little adventure together.
As for their current destination? Morgan thought about it, closing up her bag and hoisting it over her shoulders, then shrugged. Did they really need a destination? Not really, at least not in her mind, so she replied as she crouched down.*
I dunno, let's just walk!
*She extended an arm toward Lokay, who climbed up it and perched onto her shoulder again. They were both soaking wet still; Morgan forgot to pull out her brush and straighten her hair, but she supposed it was no big deal and she could take care of it later. She stood, then started off into the jungle, hoping Serena was behind her. Then she started to talk.*
I come outside a lot. Like, a whole lot. I don't like being inside, so I come outside when I can, or go to the gardens. Me and Jake go there to play between lessons, but he takes more lessons than I do so it's not that much. But I bring him with me out into the jungle whenever I can. I don't mind playing alone, but I like having someone with me better.
