Nystao Magistrates court *A young , painfully thin Nautolan stood waif like before the huge wooden housing at which was seated the Bothan Magistrate.
The elderly female Bothan had a worn greying muzzle and a small pair of pince nez glasses seated upon the bridge of her nose. She looked down at the small diminutive form below and he in turn looked up trembling at the towering figure above him as he fell under her scrutiny.
The court was a cold white washed room with none present other than the Magistrate and the bedraggled green skinned Nautolan.
The Bothan shuffled the flimsi's before her and gave them a precursory glance. She then tilted forward and looked down at the young being before her.*The Bothan asked it partially as a question, yet it was delivered as a statement of fact, she already knew the truth of the matter. She just wanted him to confirm it.
The young boy nodded and the Bothan grunted.*[/i] struck out with a shiv at one Donises Caruckus with a slash to his abdominal area."[/ul] She paused momentarilyShe eyed him over the top of her glasses.*Still the Nautolan stood there, now his head bowed. The Bothan sighed.**Tears now began to fall from the young Nautolan. His life had not been one of choice, but the court and the law cared not for such things.
Orphaned before he could walk and taken in by a Whipid, his life of crime began before he could talk. That life of neglect and cruelty was all he had known, his act had been one of defense, and now where would he be taken, prison?
He was scared, and afraid, but there was no escape.*The elderly Bothan leaned forward to scrutinize the young Nautolan and see his response.
Rak was not sure what his terms of parole were, who or what his Guardian was or would be, but he knew an alternative to twelve years in prison surely had to be worth taking, he nodded dumbly and then spoke in a small voice.*The Magistrate thumped down upon his papers with a large stamp and then handed them down to him and pointed toward the door.**With that she rose and turned and descended from the bench and left through a wooden side door leaving the mute Nautolan standing there.
Rak stood for a few minutes, he dried his eyes and then turned and walked toward the large doors at the entrance to the court, he exited through the left door where he was met by an armed guard who said nothing and simply motioned to a bench beside court room A 601. Rak seated himself laying his papers on his lap and waited.*[/fomt]

Hot Days SUCKED… there i said it. and since I didn't have any sort of in town transport. I was stuck on foot to walk from my shop cross town to the courthouse. I could not believe that the talking heads said this was going to be the start of an "unseasonable cold snap". as i approached the courthouse and saws shuttlebus, … I knew that was i was going to get back. Walking in doors i found myself in a new heap of troubles
Because it was too warm, i did not wear my Navalcoat, so that meant the belt that held three holsters for my Blaster, and Lightsaber. unfortunately, I did not carry my Lightsaber with with me, so only my blaster was on me… and the guard was not pleased with that
"You're gonna have to leave your weapons here" he said with a southern drawl. "Weapons aren't allowed in the courthouse."
"I'm a jedi, i have license to carry a weapon with me wherever I go."
"the galactic charter permits Jedi to carry LIGHTSABERS… and unless you can fold a steady beam with that gun, you can't bring it in"
Sighing, I handed the unloaded blaster pistol to the man, and continued on to meet with a Judicial Advocate… a kind of Bailiff/public attorney that served as the court needed him
"Ah, you must be the Master Jedi that the judicial department sent for. I am Alfred Vladamir Bennett."
"Bad luck Alfie… what is this all about?"
Ignoring the comment, Alfred remarked that i was the highest ranked jedi that was not likely to depart world in the next six months. I tried to protest…. but it seemed i would be caring for the boy for near future on my own dime. as we approached, I looked the boy over once before signing the last paper turning him over into my care. as Alfie departed i sat next to the Convict and relaxed for a moment.
"so, you are the Ju-V i am to be looking after, eh?"

*Time unfolded at a slow pace as various persons walked past, from Coroners to Attorneys and Lawyers, the odd one gave me a precursory glance, the majority went on their way, their high polished shoes clipping smartly off the terracotta tiled floor as they went.
I sighed as I gauged by now it was around mid day judging by the shaft of light striking through on of the higher vaulted windows upon the pale washed wall behind me.
I once again looked at the guard, he had not been standing long there since having changed with his comrade about half an hour ago. Yet just like the other fellow he was not for words either and so I had long given up on attempting to break into any sort of conversation and boredom had set in an hour and a half ago.
I sat upon the bench slumped idly kicking the floor with my feet, feeling the bluntness of the particular tile upon which my boredom was being expended.
Then I heard a commotion of voices, a short exchange, something about a weapon and then approached a thin darker faced man who seemed to be reminding the taller pale bearded fellow of his duties.
The taller man regarded the other than moved to sit beside me in and asked conversationally about my current situation as though he were remarking upon the weather.
I turned and regarded him, his slick backed hair, mostly dark with a touch of lighter brown at the corners near his ears. He wore a loose cotton shirt and what one might regard as military styled trousers. His boots which cut off at the knee and had gathered dust upon his travels.
I regarded him for a moment unsure of what to make of him, was this man to be my Custodian.
He seemed smart, well dressed and there was a certain air about him that marked him as something a cut above ordinary, this something remained illusive to me, but he peeked my interest.**I asked wishing to confirm my suspicions.*

I sat down and nodded My head
"I am indeed."
I sat for a while trying to mentally figure this out on my own. My finances were not in the best of shapes… I had to go into the patronage system just to get my ship designs considered… and now i had a second mouth to feed on my ever shrinking dime.
"I guess i am going to have to set some ground rules with you. I guess to start, you will be working 6 hours every day for me doing whatever odd jobs i need done around the shop. the rest of the time you are free on your own recognizance… however you will have a monitor of my design on you at all times. i am going to assign you a curfew, the rest of the rules we will make up as we go along… this is nothing personal… i am just on hard times with the economy in stasis, and trying not to reach up for a hand out wage."
I stood up and motioned for him to follow me, at the check point it took some words to get my blaster back, as the security guard had tried to help himself to it while i was inside. we arrived at the stop outside just in time to catch the 6:15 to blue street. I just wanted to get home and get some work done on the project.

*It was as I had believed, he had just confirmed it.
He did not stop to introduce himself and as he spoke it seemed he things well worked out, in no short of the word I was to be a hand, an errand boy. There was little choice in this matter, but the fellow seemed fine enough, perhaps this was a ticket out of hard times, or maybe it was just another path that led to the same destination.
I figured that by helping him I might acquire skills to add to my thieving repertoire and who knew, perhaps if I were clever enough I could escape the system altogether, only time would tell. I knew I wouldn't stand his curfew, I was a creature of the night, perhaps he may appreciate it if I stole and handed him some extra earnings.
The possibilities played out in my head, for now like him I would have to see how it went, what the lay of the land was.
Following him out of the building; after several lengthy minutes of paper signing we boarded a shuttle bus departing upon Blue Street, one of my old haunts I mused to myself as I followed in my Guardian's wake.*

=Lynda Jarvio= Entering the city streets, Lynda along with her Jensaarai initiates began looking for a nearest airbus to take to their destination. After a short while of searching, Lynda heard Dragan point out to a Magnaline 3000 that was heading to the area where Diamonte's shop was at. As soon as all of the five Forceful's stepped into the airbus and paid their fare, they took their seats, then waited for it to come to their stop as they relaxed. After a little over five minutes of going through a few skylanes, the airbus landed at their destination, then Lynda along with her party headed their way to Diamonte's shop.

Aeram drifted over the heads of people as they moved about the city, taking his time to observe their behavior. Once in a while he would take notice of a solid sentient that had noticed him, but did little beyond find himself amused at the confused looks he would get. Most thought he was just some weird blue smoke drifting through the air, and really, he was fine with that. He liked to watch people, and it was easier to do so when they didn't think they were being watched. After all, there were very few in the galaxy that had even heard of his species, and even fewer that knew they were more than a myth.
There were a few people on this planet that knew of him, but they spent most of their time at the Jedi Temple, or Grand Dukha, the latter of which he hadn't deigned to enter for quite some time. Then there was of course the shop that sold light sabers, not that he had any use for such a thing. It was the crystals used in the construction of the sabers that he concerned himself with. They were oddly mesmerizing, and though he knew that he could not use the force, he still sensed an energy radiating from the crystals. It was invigorating, and so he would often, silently and unseen, enter the shop and move into its lower levels to float amongst the crystals.
For now, however, he was content to float above the crowds and watch, learning more and more about people in general as time passed.

The last couple of months had seen something of a change around the city of Nystao as a new district of the city had slowly been built up. It's purpose was to serve as the home of the new Chiss residents that had been granted refuge by Ice Matango months before hand. Transports started making their way down through the palnet's atmoisphere, before making for the news district, landing there to drop off the remnants of the 1st Battalion, both soldiers and vehicles

Fidelis, Veritas and Hopian had been covertly living in Nystao for several months now, after their planned attack on the RDMC had gone bust after the place received a security overhaul by internal contractors, as opposed to Erebus' plan which had involved him getting hired to do the job. But since that had failed, Erebus had taken his leave of the planet, and left orders for the trio to begin gathering some supplies for a strike on the RDMC. Already they'd begun amassing a stash of blasters and grenades, whilst a handful of other Cinn Ion started to sneak into Nystao from off world using assumed names to begin training and planning for the strike to come, doing their best to stay under the radar by doing a handful of sessions out in the forest. So far things had been proceeding well, with the plan already quite well down pat, all they really needed was to have Erebus return and provide a list of names that they needed to strike down, that and hope that their floor plans of the RDMC weren't overly off, although, if they did it right, even if there was some escape routes, they would be able to gather people before they got away

Life in Nystao was steadily beginning to return to a somewhat normal routine for a vast majority of the new Chiss inhabitants, now that the construction of the new section of the city was finished that was needed to accommodate so many new citizens of Honoghr following the Prar House taking refuge on the planet. A number of new military bases had been constructed as apart of the expansion to accomodate not only the Maradvány Corp, but also the Rend?rség, and the Hajnalán Háború corp, so that each group would be able to have their own bases of operation to work out of. However, there was still a number of situations in which the groups collaborated together in a variety of different partnerships, and today, Rebecca was making her way from her meeting with Ice to one such joint operation, which had been going on for a number of months now, alongside her new admin aide, Tiffany, and personal security aide, Raven. Whilst it was true that Rebecca did have the services of the Dísz?rség, she was quickly finding that their services were needed far less for such rudimentary trips, especially when she wanted to travel a little more incognito, and considering that she wasn't a political figure anymore, her life was considerably less at risk. Both Raven and Tiffany had done quite well to integrate themselves almost seamlessly into Rebecca's routine, and helped out a lot with managing various administrative tasks and security oriented situations. In fact, a good bit of their recent work load was making sure everything to do with the joint operation UPPERCUT between the Rend?rség and the Hajnalán Háború corp went smoothly and was kept off the books and away from the public eye, and now, the operation was entering its final phase. For several months now, a small task force within the Rend?rség had been tracking a small terrorist cell in Nystao, whilst making use of a number of resources from the Hajnalán Háború to pin point the groups location and maintain surveilance. Meanwhile, Rebecca had been in contact with Ice and Rina, with the latter providing a fair amount of insight into who the group was, and what the leaders of the small group were like. In fact, the intel that Rebecca had provided on the group was the reason why that when she arrived with Tiffany and Raven, that it was only joint directors Malcolm, Hammond, and Grant that greeted them when they arrived to the small warehouse where the operation was being run out of. As they moved inside, a number of monitoring stations were set up, along with a large clearing in the middle that had a holo table projecting the terrorists HQ, along with markers denoting where the members of the strike team were located in the surrounding area. The operators stopped for a moment and gave a quick salute to Rebecca before returning to their seats as she approached the table and stopped alongside the joint directors and her two aidesAfternoon folks. You have all been working hard for months planning this operation, and today you reap the fruits of your labour. Governor Matango has just given me the official go ahead for this strike, but remember, keep it low and out of sight, we don't want to attract any unnecessary attention or alert the public, you know the drill... Colonel Dawn, give the go ahead when you're ready.Colonel Dawn was standing in an alleyway along with Lieutenant Colonels Jorahn and Katsuro, both of whom were quickly checking in with the various teams on the surrounding rooftops and in other alleyways, before Dawn put his helmet back on and gave his rifle a quick check as Rebecca gave him the go ahead. It wasn't often that the Hajnalán Háború was needed for a great number of operations these days, but considering the skill sets of the terrorist leaders, it had quickly become apparent that they would need to get involved, especially considering the past that Dawn, Jorahn, and Katsuro shared. Dawn stopped at the end of the alleyway and gave a quick visual check of the buildingAlright fella's, you heard the lady. You all know the brief, these are some dangerous guys, so leave the ring leaders to myself, Jorahn, and Katsuro. We move on my mark, in 3... 2... 1...Jorahn activated the quick release on the shield on his back, before attaching it to his arm, whilst Katsuro and Dawn shouldered their rifles as they dashed out of the alley way, along side a half dozen other groups all doing the same thing, whilst the snipers on the surrounding rooftops kept their rifles trained on the windows and doors of the warehouse, in case any insurgents came running out or spotted the approaching teams. The various teams reported in their statuses, whilst the surveilance operators kept feeding them information on any activity inside the building. Dawn and Jorahn moved out of the way as they approached the door, giving Katsuro a clear path to bust the door in with a single punch from his cybernetic arm, before Dawn and Jorahn followed in after Katsuro, quickly letting off a couple rounds into a pair of guards that had been posted just inside the door. The Trio then continued on towards the center of the warehouse, before quickly coming out into a large open space, where each of them kept on the look out for their intended opponent

As the assault began, several Cinn Ion were killed in opening strikes, before the others managed to pull themselves together and begin fighting back against the incursion, taking cover behind various things as they started putting the guns and grenades they had stockpiled to use. Meanwhile, as the three Chiss leaders made their way into the middle of the warehouse, Fidelis, Veritas, and Hopian jumped down from atop several different crate piles and landed opposite Dawn, Jorahn, and Katsuro respectively, before taking up fighting stances=Fidelis=I can't say we were expecting you so soon... =Veritas=No matter though, we'll take you down all the same... =Hopian=Bring It! Fidelis charged forward in a slight zig-zag motion to deny Dawn any chance to shoot him, before doing a flip kick through the air, sending a gust of concentrated wind slicing through the air towards Dawn. Meanwhile Veritas executed a quick succesion of movements, before launching a ball of fire from a nearby brazier towards Jorahn. Hopian meanwhile charged forward at Katsuro as several small chunks of rock assembled around his fist and upper arm in a semi armour type assemblage to punch his opponent with

Dawn let off a few bursts of maser rounds, however the man's erratic movements had denied him a good shot, not that he had expected to take Fidelis down with a mere rifle, hut it had been worth the try. He re-holstered the rifle across his back again as Fidelis closed in, dodging to the side as the burst of air came his way, barely missing him before he rushed forward himself to try land a right hook punch. Jorahn quickly raised his shield and braced himself as the fireball impacted a few seconds later, the shield taking the impact and only getting slightly warm. He then rushed forward, shield between him and Veritas, to try and body slam his opponent, to knock him off balance, and deny him any further opportunities to attack from afar. Katsuro had already holstered his weapon as Hopian had charged forward, ready to meet the man in hand-to-hand combat, mostly because his cybernetic arm would give him the advantage. Even as Hopian created some armour for himself from the ground, Katsuro was still confident he would have the upper hand in this contest of strength, as he swung his own clenched fist forward, the two hits cancelling one another out with a loud bang, before aiming to grip the man's arm and crush the rock armour
Back at the command center, the holo display was marking the movements of the operatives, as well as noting the deaths or capture of various insurgents as they tried to fight back or escape. Rebecca was quite pleased that everything was going so well, it meant that Nystao was going to avoid an ugly uprising by a group of terrorists, as well as prove the worth of the Chiss that had settled here. On a more personal note, Rebecca knew that by taking these men down, it would mean there was one less thing that Zion would have to worry about, since these men were apart of the purist faction that were opposed to people like him

=Elsewhere in Nystao= Following the commissioning of a new defence force several months prior, at long last, today was the day that the combined force of a thousand Chiss Commando's, ten thousand Human shock troopers, fifty thousand Noghri warriors, Twenty Self-Propelled Heavy Artillery, a hundred MAS-2xB Self-Propelled Turbolaser's, a hundred AV-7 Antivehicle Cannon's, a hundred Low Altitude Assault Transport's, two hundred All Terrain Tactical Enforcer's, two hundred TX-130T fighter tank's, two hundred T4-B heavy tank's, two hundred and fifty T-47 airspeeder's, two hundred and fifty AAC-1 speeder tank's, two hundred and fifty All Terrain Recon Transport's, and two hundred and fifty Biker Advanced Recon Commando speeder's were officially unveiled began their service. Field Marshal Kelruul had the honour of leading such a force, his previous experience of commanding the garrison upon Ilum having clinched his nomination for the job. But, although it was their official unveiling, much of the force had already started service over the preceeding months, meaning that the people had merely experienced an even flow of increased security, although, the army did it's best to remain out of the way of the comings and goings of the everyday citizen and visitor to Honoghr

Fidelis dodged backwards and around the side of the punch, in an attempt to get a punch in on Dawn's back, but the Chiss soldier was faster to react than expected, and an elbow came up and took him by surprise. The air shaper let off a couple blasts of air, with Dawn dodging the first, whilst the second hit im square in the side, putting a little distance between the two. Shaking himself off, Fidelis closed the distance once more, and the pair exchanged blows for several minutes, each blocking the majority of attacks from the other, before Dawn drew his pistol and fired off a couple shots at close range into Fidelis.
Veritas fired off another couple balls of fire, but all were blocked by the shield, as Jorahn came charging at him, the shield slamming into him a few moments later. The fire shaper did his best to quickly recover, before letting off a series of smaller fireballs, all of which were blocked by Jorahn, who was already on the offensive in return, firing off shots from his pistol. Veritas then closed the gap, attempting to try and wrestle the shield from his opponents grasp, but the plan quickly backfired on him, with the man quickly finding the edge of the shield bashing into his chest and pinning him against a support beam, before Jorahn unloaded a couple rounds itno him.
Hopian was surprised as Katsuro managed to cancel out his punch, before he withdrew his hand from the rock armour as it crumbled beneath the strength of the Chiss' cybernetic arm. The earth shaper called forth some more armour before trading blows with Katsuro, the mans cybernetic arm breaking chunks of it off, before landing a punch on his chest. Veritas went flying onto his back, his armour crumbling, before he rose again, feeling a pain in his chest, before he looked down to find a piece of rock embedded there, with the man giving a final look at Katsuro, before crumpling over

Their leader's are down, I repeat, their leaders are down With the leader's down, Dawn, Katsuro, and Jorahn went about helping the various teams secure the last of the Cinn Ion elements, with those trying to escape quickly being shot down by the snipers. Before long, the last of the resistance were gathered up, hand cuffed and being taken off to prison, but whether that was a public prison, or something more privately owned and run by the Cinndao, that was none of the Chiss concern and was entirely up to Amarina
Good work today, everyone Was the only response she gave when news came through that the three leaders of the Cinn Ion group had been killed, she then turned and took her leave, with Raven and Tiffany following close behind. With the threat dealt with, Rebecca could get back to work reorganizing her forces, to better fit in with the new defence structure of Honoghr, so that peace and seucirty could be assured for all those that called the world home

Sarongs felt... so wrong and so right at the same time. Adelle fiddled with the knot of hers, unable to keep it at her waist. It slid back down to her hips, baring more scars than she was comfortable with. Still, the ember orange fabric only brushed against the skin of her legs with a featherlight touch. It felt so much better than the rough canvas of her usual cargo pants and allowed for a much wider range of motion. Maybe she should consider alternatives. Adelle felt more than saw the stares at her bare torso, as other females in the dressing room openly and furtively gawked. Most of the other patrons had come in small groups with female friends or even a male partner, although these had been sorted into their own dressing room. Their conversations seemed muted in the tranquil atmosphere of the dressing rooms. As far as spas went, the place wasn't top-credit: she couldn't afford that kind of trip. But it could pass as a luxury spa. The room was bright and open, with small enclosures curtained off for those that needed a little more privacy. A few attendants stood by to aid patrons however they could. Music drifted in from somewhere giving a light ambience. The effect was completely relaxing and she hadn't even gotten to the baths or massages yet.
Adelle handed her small pile of belongings to an attendant and walked towards the hot baths. She hadn't been to a public bathhouse like this in her life: not even with Rishii and the Selonian loved spas. The owners had separated it male and female (with those not of binary gender merely taking their choice) but other than that, everyone mingled. Off to one side, a small table with hors d'oeuvres allowed guests to refresh themselves. Two attendants meandered the walkways around the bath, offering ice cold beverages from trays of beryllius. To Adelle's left, curtained stalls portioned off an open balcony that overlooked Nystao and the round dome of the Grand Dukha. Masseuses tended to their bare guests laying prostrate on cushioned tables, using all manner of oils and lotions for every skin-type imaginable. Again, soft music drifted along the air, only this time, Adelle could make out that it came from above. Some mastermind had created a small balcony for musicians to play on up close to the ceiling. Opposite the massage stalls and behind the table of edibles, floor to ceiling windows let Honoghr's sun flood the room with light while curtains gracefully adorned each side. Someone had excellent taste.
At the water's edge, she untied the sarong from around her waist and stepped down into the steaming bath. Almost instantly she felt her muscles slowly ease free of their knots. It had been a rough couple of weeks. First the addict on Nar Shaddaa then the nightmares . . . and the suit. Adelle shut her eyes tight and willed the panic to go away. Thank the Force Leigh had been on planet to lend her no-nonsense logic. She needed a spa day after all that. It wasn't like she got to treat herself that often. She breathed in deep, smelling the minerals in the water and the added oils. Yeah, she definitely needed this vacation.

It was a beautiful day in Nystao, as Sarah had walked the streets, enjoying her day off from work at the RDMC, as she headed to one of the local bath houses, taking advantage of the time to find new potential conquests, and admire the nubile patrons. It was on this particular day, that she found herself making her way into the same particular bath house that Adelle had chosen for her day of rest and relaxtion, with Sarah choosing it for the reason that she had never visited this particular one before. Almost instantly, upon entering the change room, she caught a familiar scent upon the air, that of her favourite beverage, drawing her to the far end of the change rooms. Sarah caught the briefest glimpse of Adelle's back as she exited the change rooms, a spark of curiosity igniting within the red headed Nurse, as she quickly attended to undressing.
Unlike many of her fellow patrons, Sarah lacked any modestry when it came to covering up, especially amongst members of the same sex, not that it would have changed much if it was members of the opposite sex. Thus it was, that she handed a pile of clothing to one of the attendants to put into safe keeping, before striding out into the main bath area, drawing more than a few curious gazes as she followed the mingled scent. The air was filled with a number of fragrances, emanating from all around, but still she could pick out that of the whiskey, which drew her gaze to the lone figure in one of the spa's. Sarah could still remember just enough of what she had read in the woman's medical file, as well as the couple times she had passed her by at the RDMC on rounds.
Suffice it to say though, Sarah felt drawn to Adelle, mostly because of the rather curious scent the woman gave off, and Sarah was curious to find out more, and perhaps get a better look at the mysterious woman. With her mind made up, she sauntered over, before stepping down into the bath just beside Adelle, taking in the mixture of aromas, as she turned her head slightly to regard Adelle You know, you really shouldn't bathe alone... It's much more fun with a little company...

Right or wrong? I can hardly tell. I'm on the wrong side of heaven and the righteous side of hell.

The music and overpowering scent of herbs and flowers had all but blocked out the world for Adelle, in a way she was only vaguely acquainted with. Meditation both blocked out the physical realm and dulled her physical senses, the—her armor blocked out her senses except sight, but this haven of serenity engaged her senses just enough that she could easily pick out where she was. Conversations were held in subdued tones, the curtains whispered when a breeze brushed by, and over everything else, the slow and steady rhythm of music reigned. She could just fall asleep here. There were headrests lining the wall of the bath so she assumed it could be done.
Alcohol and citrus interrupted her thoughts of sleep. Adelle dragged herself back to alertness, slogging through what felt like molasses and pulling her petulant consciousness along. An unknown redhead sat next to her and addressed her with soft tones. The words themselves sounded like they hinted at something but she didn't feel any malcontent. The sudden proximity did make her more self-conscious of her scars, the tattoos she couldn't remember getting, and the other quirks her genetics gave her. Fur, in the majority of human opinion, didn't belong on a human or even half-human. Adelle crossed her legs, hoping the posture and the water hid her genetic oddity.
"I bathe as I live," she said with a wry smile. "There's nothing inherently wrong with being alone. So long as you aren't lonely." And I'll be damned before I admit that.
She looked at the woman of pale skin and fiery hair, trying to place her. The redhead moved and spoke with an ease that implied familiarity; she was at least acquainted with Adelle's appearance, due to her lack of pity or shock directed at the scarring on Adelle's face. But the only other time she had ever been on Honoghr had been her treatment at the RDMC and she'd never seen this redhead. Granted, Adelle had been preoccupied but still.
"Do we— I feel like I've seen you before or you've seen me," she said.

oh, there is certainly nothing wrong with being alone at all, but there is only so much fun you can get up to alone... No need to be shy on my account though... Sarah had noticed the brief shift in Adelle's sitting position, before brushing her hand against the other woman's leg, the feel of the soft wet fur quite nice, in an effort to encourage her to relax, being of the mind that you should flaunt what ever you had. She offered a warm smile as she studied the woman before her, certain others would have shunned her, but it was something about her supposed imperfections, that drew Sarah in. She had met more than her fair share of people, from all walks of life, and she had been with nearly all of them, and had taken her pleasure from them, but they were all far too perfect. Not that she didn't mind perfect, but after a while, it became the norm, and anyone different, was always exotic, and well worth investigating, as she pulled her hand back, hoping not to have concerned Adelle too much, absent mindedly licking her lower lip as she did so, the ball of her tongue ring running across the front of her top teeth before she replied Ah, how rude of me. I wasn't sure you'd remember me. The name is Sarah Roseheart, I'm a nurse at the RDMC, I passed you by a few times on my rounds there. Must say, I am a fan of that scent, it is divine... With that, she raised her hand out of the water and offered it to Adelle to shake, figuring that a formal introduction was perhaps the best thing at this point, lest she accidentally give the wrong impression
