Faelan sniffs in lieu of a laugh, though the underlying bemused sentiment is obvious all the same, when Telarial sees right through his attempt to deny that he had been waiting up for her out of worry. Arching an eyebrow in curiosity when she presents him with the wrapped parcel, Faelan dryly observes with mild amusement, "You will have to let me know how you found out when my birthday is sometime, ad'ika, and then, tilting his head to the side as he appraises the smith's work on her beskar'gam, adds, Couldn't wait until the morning, I see. Your beskar'gam, he asks, his admiration for the realization of his daughter's designs for her armor evident, you are satisfied with the work, the fit?"
As he awaits for Telarial's reply, Faelan unwraps his gift, his delight with the blade evident as he examines it, and then tests its weight and feel in his hand. "It is a fine gift, Faelan says at last, no tears even though the faint hoarseness in his voice betrays the depth of his feeling, and a beautiful sentiment, he grins as he adds, cheesy though it may be. Setting the blade aside, Faelan rises to embrace Telarial, kissing the top of his head as he says, Thank you, ad'ika."
"Now then, Faelan says in a feigned stern tone, unless you have any more surprise, secret excursions planned, I suggest you get to sleep. I want to leave for Agamar early in the morning."

*Telarial removed her buy'ce and grinned with a nonchalant shrug as she stated simply.*
"You sleep talk...."
*Telarial was struggling to hold back another grin but was failing miserably*
"I overheard you one night while you were at my bedside, overprotectively hovering over me as you slept... quite soundly, I might add, while we were at the hospital during my recovery. I confirmed your birthday with Lorcan about a month after that."
*She looked down at her beskar'gam and answers him*
"Oh...well I went to the smith mainly to see about your gift but he told me he'd finished my beskar'gam ahead of schedule. So I figured I would save time and pick it up then. He told me to tell you that you can pay him when we return from Agamar."
*She smiled as she gave her beskar'gam another once-over.*
"I LOVE IT! He did a remarkable job! Do you like it?"
*Telarial watched as Faelan opened his gift and was happy to see that he took an immediate liking for his new weapon the moment he had it in his hand. She returned his embrace, glad she had the foresight to remove her buy'ce earlier. She answered him before pulling away.*
"I'm pleased to see you like your gift, buir. I expect you to put that dagger to good use..."
*She released a tired yawn and nodded in agreement.*
"I think I'm more than ready for some decent shut eye. Good-night, buir."
*Before she left the room entirely, she glanced at Raine and gave her a wink*
"You will have to tell me when your birthday is, cousin. Good night, Raine."
*Telarial returned to her room and was so tired, she didn't bother removing her beskar'gam, opting to simply collapse on the bed. She fell asleep within minutes...although she faintly wondered if her buir had ever checked on her before retiring for the night himself in the past. She wouldn't put it past him. That's when sleep overtook her and she slipped into fitful dreams..*

*Raine had to admit, Telarials armor was pretty nice. Now she wished she'd had her own set, but that would come later. She barely gave an audible grunt when Telarial asked when her birthday was. She watched her cousin leave the room before turning back to her uncle. Biting her lower lip nervously, she took a deep breath and decided to get it over with.* "Faelan, there's a reason I asked that question. Cause I'm kinda...sort of..force sensitive. I really wasn't sure about telling anyone till now. Well, mainly because of the Verd'goten. I don't know what to do about it."

Looking mildly troubled by the idea that he talks in his sleep, Faelan soon looks more amused than anything as he listens to Telarial excitedly chatter on and on with little chance for him to do much more than nod in response to all that is said. "Good night ad'ika," Faelan says with a chuckle as his daughter all but skips off to her room.
Returning his attention to Raine after she speaks once they are alone once more, Faelan nods without much in the way of surprise evident in his expression when she reveals the reason she had asked about Force sensitivity in the first place. Smiling in hopes of dispelling her fears about what being Force sensitive might mean in terms of the Verd'goten or her place among the Mando'ade, Faelan says, "In brief, you don't need to do anything Raine. As I said earlier, Clan Bralor has no issue with Force sensitivity, as a general rule. The Clan is not entirely ignorant of the potential dangers inherent in Force sensitivity, of course. Not dwelling on the specifics for the moment, Faelan lifts a hand to suggest that they not stray too far from the central point, and continues, The only suggestions I have are that you tell your buir, and decide with him how to approach the Verd'goten; whether to say nothing and use your abilities sparingly and subtly enough that they are not obvious, or to openly declare that you have them so that no eyebrows are raised if or when you use them in the Verd'goten. Settling back in his seat, to make it clear via his posture that he is not in any hurry to end their talk if Raine wishes to continue it, Faelan asks, How did you find out that you are Force sensitive?"

*Telarial awoke when she felt the need to utilize the refresher and trudged tiredly out of her room. She groaned when she glanced at the chronometer hanging on a nearby wall to see that she'd only been sleeping for about an hour. Telarial was only partially aware that Faelan and Raine were still talking in the living room. After she relieved herself, she glanced once in the mirror at her reflection and then with bleary eyes, opened the door a crack. Choosing to take off her combat boots she sat down on the floor and leaned against the wall next to the showering unit. After successfully pulling off her footwear, she unwittingly fell back asleep. Telarial shifted and in so doing, managed to push the refresher door open all the way, to reveal her slumped over form.*

*Potential dangers.Raine knew well and was familiar with such dangers. She had been the cause of some more then once. Her uncle was right though, she needed to tell her buir.* "I'll...tell him in the morning. He should know."
*She pulled her knees closer to her chest when Faelan asked how she learned of her force sensitivity. Her face turned a little redder at the thought, it wasn't exactly a fun story.* "There were some members of a Hutt Cartel trying to catch my friends and I. They made me angry and I kinda...might have... tossed him through the windshield of a speeder. After that it just kinda came and went. Mainly it just improved my fighting and athletics. Sometimes....I would lose control and people would get hurt."

Grunting in such a way that the grunt in question is unmistakably a grunt of agreement when Raine says that she intends to tell Lorcan of her Force sensitivity the following morning, Falean listens without interrupting as she goes on to describe how she had first learned of her abilities.
Grunting once more when Raine has finished speaking, this time in a reflective way suggesting that he is absorbing what has been said, Faelan is quiet for a moment before leaning forward and saying in a firm way that is neither judgmental nor suggestive of a belief that she is not capable of having arrived at a similar, if not the very same conclusion herself, "You'll want to learn control then, I imagine. Smiling faintly, as though thinking of the past, Faelan says, Your father, believe it or not, used to have difficulty in controlling his temper. I know it is not exactly the same, he adds while raising a hand as though anticipating an objection, but you are not the first or the last being in this universe to find that learning control of one kind or another is necessary. Meeting her eyes to emphasize his next remark, Faelan says, Always remember, you are not alone. If you find that you need help in controlling these abilities of yours, you need only say so and your buir, I, and your Clan will all do whatever we can to see that you get the help you need. Understood?"

*When Faelen mentions that her buir has a temper, she instinctively rolled her eyes.* "Believe me, I know he has a temper. I inherited some of it." *She bit her lower lip when he mentioned finding a way to control her abilities. She was going to have to tell him that she already had some training.* "I kinda already have some training. Before I ended up at the First Order base where you found me, I was on Felucia at the Jedi temple. I was dropped off there and then I ran away to try and make it back to Mandalore. That plan didn't really work though."

*Telarial awoke hours later and stretched stiff muscles. She felt terrible. Had she really been THAT tired?? She returned to her room and grabbed all of her gear that she would be taking with her to Agamar. Then she headed out towards the space port after pulling on her buy'ce.*

*Eimhin slowly woke to find himself snuggled against his father's side. One of Lorcan's arms was wrapped around him and the man was snoring. He wiggled out of his father's grasp and slipped out of the room. It was now morning and the small boy was getting hungry. His attention was riveted on an object of great interest as he passed by his uncle Faelan's room. His bes'bev: it was on the top shelf of a bookshelf. If only there was a way to reach it....

*Raine wandered out of her room and sleepily walked towards the kitchen. Her bare feet almost shuffled across the floor as she wondered why it was so hard to sleep the night before. She came to a stop when she spotted Eimhin standing in their uncle's room eyeing his bes'bev. Attempting to pull her messy hair back into a ponytail, she took several steps into the room.* "Eimhin. What are you doing in here?"

*Eimhin gasped and turned with a startled look when he heard the unexpected voice of his big sister. He looked from her, then back up at the besbev.*
"I want to hold uncle Faelan's bes'bev. I want to make it sing...."

*Raine looked up at the instrument then back at Eimhin.* "I'm not sure we're allowed to play with it. We can ask Faelan later." *She reached out her hand to her brother.* "Come on. Let's go get breakfast."

*Eimhin reluctantly took his sisters hand and gave the bes'bev one last glance.*
"Can you make music with the bes'bev like ba'vodu?"

*Raine paused at Eimhin's question and turned to look at the instrument.* "I don't know, maybe." *She bit her lower lip and looked at her brother.* "Well. I guess I could try."
*She let go of her brothers hand and walked over to the dresser. Raine carefully pulled the instrument from the dresser. She sat on floor and stared at the instrument. She had seen her uncle play it before. Taking a breath, she carefully began to play the instrument. She wasn't as good as her uncle, but surprisingly she wasn't terrible.*

*Raines confidence grew some as she played a little more. Eimhin enjoyed it, that's all that mattered really. She played for a minute longer before her chest started tightening some. For some reason she started to feel slightly dizzy. She stopped playing and started to cough some. Feeling a slight pain in her lungs.* "Maybe I should learn to breath while playing. Feels like I was holding my breath for some reason."
*She started playing again, this time she tried to steady her breathing. This allowed her to play the notes clearer. In the end though, she started coughing again. She layed the instrument across her lap and breathed in slowly to catch her breath.* "Well that's weird. Why does my chest hurt when I play this thing?"

*Eimhin looked worried and latched on to his sister in a hug.*
"Vod, are you okay?! Do you need a doctor? I can go get buir!"
*He made to stand and grabbed Raine's hand to try and pull her up.*

*Raine stood up with her brother and pulled him into a one armed hug.* "No, vod. You don't need to get buir. I probably just have a cold or something."
*She put the in instrument back up onto the dresser. With a little bit of effort, she picked up Eimhin. She couldn't help but wonder how quickly her little brother would soon be bigger than her.* "Lets go get something to eat. We'll try playing it again later."
*She carried him into the kitchen. Her breathing seemed to have calmed down now.* "Okay. What do you want to eat?"

*Eimhin hugged his sister as she carried him to the kitchen. When they got there he shrugged at Raine's question*
"I don't know. Breakfast?"
