Asani happily nods to Tom as he mentions a small friend of his who likes it outside, and that she may get to meet this friend later. "I would really like to meet her, sure!" She replies happily as she follows Tom to the Dining area, nodding again as he mentions that it's not far. "Good, I'm very hungry. As for liking it outside, I really do. Most Kushiban spend their time outside, only retreating to a hollow tree or cave to sleep or escape bad weather, but that goes double for me and actually relates to the story of how I came to be found by a Jedi and brought to train, if you would like to hear it." She offers with a glance over at Tom as she walks upright beside him. It wasn't exactly a happy story, but she knows they are events that made her who she is today, and would not change them if she could.

She shakes her head and, her fur turning a light grey as she really doesn't like the idea of killing a bunch of people, even if they were gangsters, just to flush out their boss, and the idea of joining a gang didn't sound much better, and she too realized it was rather ridiculous. Surely if they didn't laugh and use her for target practice for the mere idea of a little Kushiban joining their gang, Jedi or not, they would want her to do something to prove her worth to them, which could end up being even worse than killing a bunch of gangsters. But, considering the two options, she decides it's worth a shot at least. "Well, if I was going to approach a gang and offer to help them bring this guy down, is there one in particular that really hates this particular gang?" She asks as she looks up at the man again, and turns to look at the food he is preparing. "What kind of salad are you making?" She asks curiously, accompanied by another color shift. There likely were sauces that would give her a stomach ache, as her kind were herbivores and might not be able to digest anything made from milk or cheese for example. Of course she wouldn't mind if he asked about what to serve her, knowing that her kind are rarely seen outside of Kushibah. As for other needs, they could get to that later.

Asani nods and chuckles a bit as Tom mentions getting the gender wrong before and the woman not being terribly happy. "Ah, well I see why you are cautious about it then. I guess you learned the hard way that it's better to ask first than to assume and be wrong. I would love to find some food and a place to stay now that you mention it. I'm rather hungry..." She says as her stomach growls. "As for what I have learned, I have been working on the lightsaber forms, and I am most practiced with Ataru. I have also learned to draw upon Ashla to quicken my movements, telepathy, telekinesis, and healing." She answers as she stands ready to follow him to wherever there was food and shelter around here. "I don't really remember my way around here very well. Master Roma and I spent most of our time in the forest while we were here."

Asani is happy to be complemented, even if it did surprise her a little, since she really hadn't been sure what to say. She also liked that this human was kneeling down to bring himself closer to her level, as it made it easier to talk to him and made her more comfortable to be standing near him. "A grey Jedi? So you just follow the Force itself and do what you think is right, rather than following a council? I did not know that was an option." She says with a tilt of her head, then laughs at his last question. "Honestly, I'm surprised you are the first person to go out and ask me that... Maybe the others just assumed by my name? I am female. As for aiding me, well, I'm not really sure where to start... What would you have me do first?"

Asani watches as the man gets up and heads into the kitchen, then soon follows, looking to see what he was doing. Her fur turning a bright yellow as she happily sees that he seems to be making a meal for the both of them. Fruit and vegetable salad certainly would be fine with her. She thinks about his question, but answers his request for her name first, since that was easy. "My name is Asani. As for this boss, do you know anything about who he is and where or how I should go about looking for him? I'm afraid I'm pretty new around here and don't know too much about the city. I've also never killed anyone, but if this man you are talking about isn't going to stop until I'm dead, I guess I will have to take him out one way or another..." She says with a shake of her head.

Asani's fur shifts to a lighter shade of yellow and she tilts her head a bit at that question, thinking a moment about what he was asking her. After a bit she nods. "That makes sense... But how can you find out what is in the heart of a stranger? I'm not sure what I would ask you about. You seem kind, but some people play fake nice. You also seem wise to be asking me such a question, but... I don't know what to say... I do know I wish to know more about you." She says as she continues looking slightly up at him as he kneels near her, unaware this was a test.

Asani saw the man coming and would have moved to get out of the way if he hadn't noticed her. By now she was used to avoiding being stepped on when around larger races. As it was, when he kneels down to speak with her, she looks back at him happily. "I have been here before, I guess not many Kushiban have though. My name is Asani and I was training with Master Serrin Roma, but we were separated and I'm not sure where she is now. So I worked up the credits to get someone to drop me off at a Jedi temple or base, and this is where I ended up. Are you a Jedi? I was hoping to find someone to continue training me." She asks curiously as she looks the human man up and down a bit and straightens her Padawan robes.

After spending more time than she would care to think about working up credits to buy passage, she was finally able to buy her way aboard a freighter to Felucia, only to end up working more during the trip. She is certainly happy to be dropped off at the Jedi Base, even if they barely landed the ship before kicking her off and flying back out of the hangar again. She shakes her head and brushes down her robes with her paws as she stands upright and looks around a bit, memories of her last time on Felucia flooding back to her. A momentary feeling of sadness tinges her fur grey as she thinks of Serrin and wonders where she might be now, but she tries to stay optimistic as she makes her way toward the hangar exit, hoping that she can find someone at the base that can help her to continue growing as a Padawan.

Asani does swiftly follow after this mysterious man, keeping up as he snakes through the many narrow alleys. Indeed however, the increased gravity is wearing her out. It will certainly help to build her endurance if she lives long enough for her little body to adjust. Her fur turns orange as she grows wary of her current situation and this man she was following who she knew nothing about other than the fact that he saved her from death or capture, more likely one before the other. She didn't want to even think about what would have happened if they captured her, but memories of her time on a slave ship came rushing to her mind, and she knew, being a captive Jedi would be far worse. Figuring that there would be much torture to endure.
She shakes her head to try and shake these unpleasant thoughts from her mind as they reach the end of a dead-end street while also taking a moment to catch her breath. Her tail twitches nervously as she follows the man as he works a few keys of a hidden panel and opens a door. She takes a deep breath, hoping she's not just being lead into an elaborate trap, then follows him into the home. She finds the contrast between the nice looking home and the ally quite striking, and finds herself hoping this man will let her stay here for a time while she figures out how to get off this planet. As she walks into the living room, she sits on the floor and looks up at the man, nodding at his question. "Well, you're right I'm sure, but the only thing I did to get myself into this mess was be myself... I wasn't looking for trouble, it found me... Maybe I should get some sort of cloak or something that would conceal my lightsaber a little better, but it's a little late for that now... I'm pretty sure I'm the only Kushiban on the planet, so they don't even need to know my face. Just look for the little furry Jedi with big ears and a tail..." She says with a shake of her head. "What am I going to do now? All I want to do is get back to any sort of Jedi Temple..."

She continued to stand still, unyielding as the human drew closer and closer, and she just held her lightsaber at the ready. But before the woman could make an attack, there was the sound of a single blaster shot, and then the woman fell and impaled herself on her own knife. She blinked, a bit startled by this turn of events, and reached out to use Force Healing on the woman, at least to slow the bleeding some so she had a chance of living, but then, she only felt the woman's life force ebb away and she turned her attention to the mysterious man who had ended the fight for her, taken a life in her place. Lifting her ears, her tail twitches a bit as she hears many footsteps in the distance and knows the man's warning to be right. With a nod she puts her lightsaber away and drops to all fours, quickly bounding after him.

Asani turns to face the woman as the rest of the men flee, her fur fading to a yellowish cream color as she attempts to calm her emotions and focus. She could see that this woman wasn't about to give up, and this wouldn't be an easy fight even in normal gravity. As it was, she knew she would get tired faster than this human, and thus would need to end this quickly. She decides though that there is no point in wasting energy making the first move, so she stands her ground and watches the woman carefully, studying her as she awaits a move, her tail twitching every now and then. The look in the woman's eyes though makes her frown, seeing that cold determination. She hasn't killed another before, but fears that she may have to in order to survive this current battle.

Asani is a bit surprised when two of the men turn and run, though there wouldn't be any facial expression to give that away, just that her fur would turn yellowish grey now. She guesses that they must not know Padawan robes when they see them, and have assumed she's a fully trained Jedi. While she certainly won't be complaining about having two less people shooting at her, it was still 4 to 1, and she isn't quite skilled in blaster deflection, and even for a full Jedi this would be a lot of blaster fire to contend with. However, even if these gangsters had good aim, they'd probably have a hard time hitting Asani as she draws upon Ashla's power to increase her already impressive speed. She goes dashing around to each gangster in turn, using her lightsaber form of choice, Ataru, she uses nimble, acrobatic leaps to get around their cover to strike at their weapons with her saber, and trying to be unpredictable in her movements to make it even harder to follow and get a good shot on her. She hopes that disarming the gangsters will be enough to end the fight.

Asani notices the menacing group long before they reach her. She hears them coming her way and really hopes that they will just leave her alone as she lays there innocently, but when they continue to get closer, only to stop at the building she is resting outside, she looks up to find that they are looking right at her. She knows that isn't good, but luckily she is already moving to stand as the woman points a blaster at her and fires and she nimbly leaps out of the way just in time to avoid the shot. She then quickly pulls out her lightsaber and it comes to life in a flash as she turns it on with a press of one of her claws. She stands back from them, holding her weapon with both of her diminutive hands, and doesn't attack. She really doesn't like her odds if she gets into a fight with them all, particularly with the increased gravity. "If you want me to move, I will leave. I don't want to fight you."

Asani finds herself wandering the city of Pixelito, not really sure what she is going to do now. She's been separated from her Master, and has been traveling with a group ever since in an attempt to eventually get to any sort of Jedi Temple. However they stopped here to watch a pod race and ended up accidentally leaving her behind, at least, she assumes it was an accident. Either way, they haven't come back for her, so now she's once again on her own. She moves to lay down by the side of a building, needing to take a moment to rest because she isn't used to the strong gravity. Her fur has become grey as of late, which any who know of her kind would realize means she is unhappy. It was also obvious she was a Jedi Padawan, since she was still wearing her robes, and has her shoto lightsaber clipped to a belt around her midsection.

I'm looking to get back into RPing around here. Asani needs someone to continue her training, and a place to call home. Anyone interested in RPing with me or helping to work me into some current plot?
