Who:

coruscanti
When: 5/21 aka 1/08 just barely before the intro log.
Where: Bus to the ~~intro log~~ venue.
What: We didn't want to clog the comments on the log with Anakin making sure that Tahiri is a functioning person on the log.
Rating/Warning: Warning for Tahiri may punch Anakin for SPOILER dying.

[ Alien planet. Sure, why not. Tahiri hadn't paid close attention during the presentation, didn't understand why anyone couldn't just grab a ship and leave, but she was having trouble actually caring about that at the moment. Well. She cared she just didn't see any urgency in worrying about it. It didn't feel like a kidnapping, not by Yuuzhan Vong or any other aliens, so. So there was that.

Getting shoved onto something called a bus, Tahiri takes a seat near the back and just... casually bonks her head against the window, leaning against the cool glass. She knows she should be more concerned or maybe excited (though who would be excited after being casually yanked from wherever they were to this unknown planet), but can't bring herself to quite care. All she can think is-- Anakin would be interested in this bus thing. and I wish Anakin could see this city. But Anakin is dead, so he can't. ]

[ None of them ate well on the mission, and yeah no he hasn't eaten since, you know. The entire. Death thing...he's not going to say a word about the tear stains. Tahiri's earned the right to cry on him over the course of their friendship. ]

There seem to be a lot of humanoids, so I expect there's going to be something we can eat.

[ Don't be picky, Veila. ]

[ She also earned the right to cry on him because he died. ]

I would hope so! Otherwise everyone is going to be hungry. But I hope it's at least good, you know? It could be weird meat from weird aliens we haven't even seen, or processed differently, who even knows.

[ She doesn't really care that much about what they eat, but it's something to talk about. ]

Have you met any of these humanoids, or sensed anyone we know? I haven't, there's a lot of strangers.

[ And yet he's still okay with that in a way - he's accepted that, because, hey. All of the people he loved survived that, hadn't they? Tahiri's chatter flows over Anakin like it always does, and he doesn't even complain about not being able to get a word in edgewise. He's almost given that up, but for teasing.

This question, at least, invites a pause. ]

Jaina and Jacen aren't around, but...

[ A tilt of his head to one side, as though listening. ]

...I think Mom's here. Can't sense anyone else. [ Han's lack of connection to the Force has always made him hard to find. ]

Huh, that's weird. Isn't it? There are a lot of people around, strange that there aren't more we know. More Jedi, or something. [ tiny pause. ] Well, I guess not really weird. Everyone looks like they could be from all kinds of places, don't they? There's more humanoids than anything else, though.

[ Tahiri switches to looping her arm through his, keeping a hold on him. ]

Can you tell where your mom is?

I can't pin her down exactly. She feels...different? It was easier to find you. You're closer, and we...

[ He'd know her Force signature anywhere. It wouldn't matter how much she'd changed, he thinks; Tahiri's been through too much with him for him not to be able to find her. It was easier this time than the last time, at least. ]

Anyway, if she's here, dad might be as well.

Different how?

It's a start at least, so we aren't completely stranded alone on this place. Though I think we'd be fine just the two of us if we had to.

[ Neverminding that time they were with several people and SOMEONE went and died anyway. ]
