"I know. Although, saying I'm going to be taller than Fee isn't setting a high bar." *She gave a sheepish grin at her joke before letting out a sigh.* "Okay, bad joke."
"I think I got it. You can defend yourself, even if you throw the first punch. Just don't go looking to start fights." *Her gaze went to the floor for a moment before turning back to her buir.* "I've been trying not to get into fights. Which has been going well, since, you know, we haven't been on planet long enough for me to."

*Raine sat down cross legged across from her buir. She couldn't help but let out a sigh as she spoke.* "I know. It's just...I'm tired of being the smallest out of everyone."
*She turned her attention from her height dilemma, to the lesson her buir was teaching them. The rhyme, in her mind, seemed a little childish, then again it was probably made for younger children anyway. She chanted along anyway, mainly for Em benefit. Once her buir asked her about the second line in the rhyme, she hesitated for a moment.* "Self defense? Well...I think it means defending yourself only if you haft to. Like if you're attacked, but kind of a last resort thing." *Then she gave a sheepish grin. She wasn't very good at the last resort part, mainly the teach them lesson now part.* "I'm not very good at that."

*'Fee's armor?'Raine thought. She could picture the womans armor, but couldn't think of the color.* "Burnt orange? Brick red?" *She figured she'd have some time to make that decision.*
*With the promise of getting paint in the morning, she went to find Em like her buir asked. She found him in the living room running about. After chasing him about, she finally caught him and carried him back to their buir. Em had grown a lot since he first came here, he was now half Raines size, which made carrying him difficult.* "Found..him. He's almost as big as me now." *She set him down by their buir and caught her breath.* "That's...not really fair. I'm going to be small forever."

*Raine rolled her eyes when her buir asked why not red. Then she thought about it. Orange was a bright color, bright colors stood oit, which could make her an easy target.* "I'll think about it. Maybe a color that doesn't stand out so much."
*She listened to her buir as he explained how each piece was worn. Everything was slightly mismatched, but that could be fixed. With help from her buir, she finally got all the pieces put on and adjusted as best they could. She stretched some and moved about as she tried to get a feel for the beskar'gam.* "It's lot more than I'm used too. Like I'm not as flexible." *She took the buy'ce from the table and put it on. Thankfully with her shorter hair, the helmet was snug but not tight. She then turned to her buir.* "What do you think?"

*Raine handed the helmet to her buir before picking up the flight suit. She held it up and gaze it a look over before turning to her buir.* "Finding the right size in here maybe...difficult. I'm small for my age, so I'll have to find a smaller size." *What her buir did find for her seemed about right though. With flight suit in hand, she went into a side room to change into it. She could still hear her buir...even his jokes. As he explained the colors, she began to wonder what color she would chose. She started changing as she called out to her buir.* "Maybe I'll go with orange."
*She came out fully dressed in the flight suit, which fit surprisingly well. Her barefeet padded softly across the floor as she went to stand back beside her buir.* "Well, it fits. So now what?"

*Raine shook her head and gave a sigh at her buirs imitation of Fee.* "No, you haven't done to bad of a job so far. Besides, almost losing my arm wasn't the first near death experience I've had."
*What her buir said next got both her attention and her excitement. She skipped after him, almost unable to keep her enthusiasm contained.* "Really! I can make my own set?" *She followed Lorcan into the armory and began to look around. There was a lot of different pieces tucked away in storage or hanging from racks. Raine picked up a buy'ce and turned to her buir.* "I know a little about what the colors mean. Maybe...not very well though."

*Raine fiddled with the holster to make it fit just right, at least until she heard the conversation between her buir and Fee. She looked up from her fidgeting and listened to what the adults said. Fee and Ro were leaving for Agamar and they weren't entirely sure what for, but they had to leave soon. Her stomach tightened some at the thought of them leaving, and she really wasn't sure why. Maybe because her uncle amd cousin were still gone? Or it seemed like the circle of people she knew was being cast across the galaxy every day.*
*She hurried over and joined the hug between her buir and Fee. Raine merely gave a nod at Fee's instructions.* "I'll make sure we don't starve. I'm kinda good at that actually." *She turned her grey eyes up to Fee.* "Be safe, please."

*Raine rolled her eyes in typical teenager fashion, when her buir put on a stern act.* "Yes, it's the only thing I got pierced. I promise."
"A surprise?" *Raine asked as she arched an eyebrow. This definitely made her curious as to what it could be. She followed her buir into the house and waited, almost, patiently in the livingroom. Her eyes widened at the sight of the HattMark derringer that Lorcan brought out. She could barely contain her excitement as she listened to her buirs instructions on how to properly hold the blaster. Carefully, she imitated the way her buir was holding the weapon when he handed it to her. Keeping it pointed at the floor, and her finger away from the trigger, she gave her buir a hug.* "Thank you!" *Raine carefully took the power cell and gas cartridge. She assembled the blaster before handing the cell and cartridge back to Lorcan. She was disappointed that her arm still needed healing, but knew she couldn't rush it.* "Ummm...I think a hip holster would be good. I'm not really sure how well I'd do with the other two."

*She watched her buir fire off several well placed shots before giving Eimhin some advice. Her buir was right, in a way, that it was never to early to learn how to use a blaster.*
*Raine gave a small smile when her buir complemented her hair, before she leaned up against him.* "Thanks. I like it better now, it's more manageable." *She gave a glance back at Fee when asked about their trip. * "Yeah, we had fun. Seems like you guys had fun also." *Raine looked up at her buir.* "And, yes. I got my ears pierced, and only my ears."

*The sound of blaster fire caught Raine's attention when she first stepped out of the speeder. She paused momentarily at the sound before following after Fee. The source of said commotion turned out to be nothing more then her buir, who appeared to be teaching Em how to shoot a blaster pistol. She gave a small grin at the sight, knowing that shebwas right about what happens when they get bored.*
*Raine could see how distracted Fee seemed to be when she patted her on the shoulder and went to find Ro. She simply gave the older woman a nod and wondered over to her buir and younger brother. Raine clasped her hands behind her back and slowly stepped up behind her buir and Em, watching the two for a minute before speaking.* "Getting some target practice in?"

*Raine was glad in a way to get those feelings off her chest. She had never actually opened up about the whole thing, and having someone listen was kinda..nice.* "I'll..ask him about it later, maybe tonight. I don't wanna have get everyone down just from thinking on it." *She paused for a moment before centering herself.* "And..thanks. For listening, I mean."
*She climbed into the speeder and tried to shove the bad memories away. Fee was right, her mom wouldn't want those memories to ruin her day. Besides, Fee had another good point, her buir and vod had been left unsupervised for awhile now. A small grin appeared on her face as she turned to Fee.* "Worried that we didn't leave them with adult supervision? I'm sure they'd be fine for a little while, until one of them got bored anyway." *She did have to admit one thing about those two hanging out.* "At least they can get some father, son time. When we hang out, it can get kinda weird. Especially when he has to answer awkward questions."

*A small smile tried tugging at Raine's lips when Fionnuala says her mom was cool. She was also glad to hear that her buir would've tried his best to change to keep her around. Raine fought back a small frown as she wondered what exactly made her mom leave in the first place.*
*She returned Fee's hug and listened to what she said. There was a problem with trying to keep her moms memory around though.* "I try remembering her, I really do. It's just getting harder every time I try and think about her. What she looks like I mainly remember from the only picture I have of her. Everything else..her voice, how she acted..it's all mostly faded away." *She stared off into the distance with glossy eyed gaze.* "Every time I think of her, I can only picture the day she died. When she looked back at me from the pilots seat. A split second before a rocket tore through the cockpit. There wasn't much left of the ship by the time I escaped."

*Raine listened intently to the story. Everything seemed to add up, especially the part about her buir.* "That..does sound like my buir. Although he does seem to have grown some since finding out Em and I are his kids." *She was silent for a moment before speaking.* "Did you..ever meet my mom? I mean, it was almost fourteen years ago, but..." *Raine wasn't entirely sure where she wanted the question to go. But it seemed like something to ask.* "Do you think she would have stayed with Lorcan if he found out about me?"

*Raine gave a small laugh at Fee's comment.* "There is a lot of that at home. I'm kinda outnumbered there." *She finished the last of her food and got to her feet.* "We can grab that kama and then head back." *There was one thing Raine did want to ask and it had to do with her buir.* "So....why doesn't Ro like my buir?"

"I've never actually thought about getting new outfits when I get a new haircut. Maybe I've just been happy enough with what I got to really think about it." *She followed Fee into the market, where she was engulfed with many sights and sounds. Everything seemed to catch her attention, from jewelry and clothes, to foods and hand crafted wares. After scooting from stall to stall, she finally found a place to eat.*
*With food in hand, she sat down at a table and began to est like she hadn'tin days. She finally came up for air and gave Fee a sheepish grin.* "Thanks for bringing me here today."

*The piercing didn't hurt anywhere near as much as she thought it would. Well, at least compared to almost getting her arm chewed off by a nexu, anyway. She bid farewell and thanked Yun and her family. Raine followed Fee out into the streets and thought on if there was anything else she wanted to see. The question was answered when her stomach rumbled some.* "I guess my stomach's decided that we need food." *She looked down at her clothes then back to Fee.* "What's wrong with look I have now."

"Right.." *Raine agreed when Mi'cha elaborated on what she meant about real estate. She was suddenly curious about these other areas, but was cut short by Gi. Then the subject turned to Fee and her first tattoos. Raine wanted to know more. The look she gave Raine, however, made her think twice about those questions.*
*Yun finally finished Raines hair and turned her to face the mirror. She had to admit, it looked better than she expected.* "I love it!" *She shook her head and felt the back of her neck where all her hair used to be.* "My head feels so much lighter!" *She then turned to face Fee.* "Does it look better?"

*Raine was unaware at just how many different types of styles there were for the haircut she wanted. So many choices that she had to think about it while Yun washed her hair. Finally she made a decision.* "I'll go with the hipster pixie cut."
*Then Yun started into her speech about tattoos and why Raine should wait until she was older. How she might not like it further down the road as her interests in life could change. Her speech was interrupted by Mi'cha, who jumped straight to the point, half of which she didn't understand.* "I understand, except for the prime real estate part." *She gave a nod when Yun asked if she was ready.* "My mind is made up. I'm ready to get my fur..hair cut."

*Raine shrugged her shoulders at Fee's question.* "Never really thought about it before. I've always been to busy just trying to survive each day to really know what I wanted to be when I got older. Although, being a captain of a big ship like that would be cool."
*She eyed Fee's tattoos then her new piercing. Her buir would kill her if she got a piercing like that, no matter how cool it looked.* "I wish I could get a tattoo..." *The first thing Raine noticed how organized everything seemed to be for gow much stuff there was in the room, and how it definitely wasn't just a hair salon. She gave a small wave to Yun andher family. Before she sat down, she pulled off her hoodie, revealing a grey tank top, and handed it to Fee. She thought about what kind of hair cut for a second before making a decision.* "I need it shorter, like a pixie cut. My hair grows really fast, so it won't stay short for long." *She gave a quick look around the room before finally settling on the idea.* "I'm also going to get my ears pierced, like a helix piercing. My buir said I could get my ears pierced, so I'm going to."
