Jin became bright red as Fiora straddled her and was seamlessly kissed. Now looking up at Fiora in a tunnel of red hair, Jin knew the fight was over. Jin couldn't go back now, nor did she want to. Well... I've resisted temptation this long, I could probably keep my hands to myself for the next couple of days. She broke away from Fiora's hand so that both of her hands could now rest on the Princesses waist. Though I will warn you, I'm going to make a very bad consort... And I'm sure you heard about me and my time at the Citadel during training. I have a certain reputation.

Her grin grew as Jin finally gave up resisting and trying to come up with excuses. Timing be damned, she had made this choice and wasn't going to let it go. As Jin's hand finally left hers, she braced her now free hand upon the other side of her girlfriend's head. She leaned her face down and pressed a quick kiss upon Jin's forehead, her face flashing red a few moments later as Jin spoke of her reputation
I-I mean... Uhm... If anyone will make a bad consort where that is concerned, it will be me...
Her gaze finally broke a little from Jin's then, embarrassed more at her own lack of experience than some of the stories she had heard. Her arms collapsed then, causing Fiora to fall down into Jin. Her face burying into the side of her girlfriend's causing her words to be a little muffled
What ever you may have done and whoever you may have done it with doesn't bother me... Nor is it any of my concern...

Jin let out a small giggle as Fiora fell down onto her. She moved her arms to wrap all the way around Fiora and squeeze her in a hug. Seems like it may be a concern if you're hiding from me. She then moved her hands to take Fiora's face and lift it up so that she could look her in the eyes. The bodyguard had adopted a very serious expression at this point. But it is your concern. I need you to understand that I am polyamorous, okay? Be honest if that bothers you, you need to let me know and don't let it fester. Jin studied the princesses face while she spoke. It was vital that this be made clear from the start. While at the moment Jin didn't currently have any other partners, romantic or otherwise, she never knew or cared to know the future.

The hug was nice, and Fiora relished it for as long as it lasted, though it did not help the blush that had taken over a fair amount of her face. As Jin took her face and lifted it up, her own smile faded away as she met her noble Knight's gaze. She brought her hand up to rest on Jin's cheek, something in her longing to make sure she maintained a hold of this and make sure it was real
I assure you, that is not why I was hiding... I.. well... I've never been with anyone Jin. It's just a little daunting and embarrassing to think about all that you've done and how little I have and... wanting to... with you...
If she'd thought her blush might calm down because of how serious Jin looked, the awkwardness of her admission was more than happy to prove her wrong
I'm not your Mas... well, not that kind of Master. You are not property to own or be traded. You are your own person, with feelings and emotions just as complex as my own. So long as the time we spend together is our time, that's all I care about... OK, that's not entirely true, my relatives are off limits...
A somewhat unnecessary addition, given they were all either too young, in relationships of their own, or too old. But it would have been something of a lie by omission if she'd not clarified her point, and she wanted to be honest with Jin

Fiora's responses made Jin laugh and shake her head. You aren't going to disappoint me, Fi. Jin brushed some of Fiora's hair behind her ear. You are who you are and that is perfect. Jin brought Fiora's face in for another kiss, this one longer and more passionate on Jin's part. But finally she broke away. And I promise to stay away from your family. In my experience dating a partners relative ends up being... complicated. Jin drew Fiora in once more for a fiery embrace and kiss.

She felt a sense of relief wash over her as Jin laughed and shook her head, glad that the more tense details were dealt with, for now at least. She shivered a little at Jin's touch, feeling the hair being brushed aside. Feeling a bit more confidence, she returned the kiss with a bit more passion on her own part, shifting her self back properly atop Jin's waist as she did so
You're right, I am perfect, and don't you ever forget it...
She slid her hands up against Jin's face, gripping it as she was drawn into a fiery embrace and a deep kiss. This feeling was amazing, being able to finally and fully express herself and fill a longing she was just now realizing she had been suffering with for so long. Tonight her thoughts and focus would be filled with Jin, so she could withstand what would come next

The next day.
Jin had thought to offer to join Fiora when she mentioned she was going to find her brother, but thought better of it, that it was probably not her place to get involved. So now Jin used the opportunity to continue her work. She had started it when she had first heard the news. Her portrait of the Delvardus family, or at least those immediately related to the late Emperor, was coming along well. Jin had played with some different styles, but those were abandoned on earlier pages of this sketch book. Instead she was sticking with a more classic style. So far she had gotten at least the outlines for all 12 persons. Any more and she was certain her hand would fall off. Pausing to stretch her hand and to swipe to another archived image of Illaria Ren, Jin caught herself stealing a glance toward the bed. She and Fiora had spent the night together. Jin had held her and whispered what words of comfort she could offer after the Emperor had passed. Even she had felt that moment in the Force. If she was a sage she would probably have picked up on how much of an effect that that death would have on the whole galaxy, but right now she knew it was a burden on Fiora and the other children of the late Nicademus. Jin looked back down at the portrait and something seemed wrong, everyone looked so miserable and stoic. She knew it was a common trait of the family, but she wouldn't settle for the dark reality. So gently taking her eraser to the marks on the page, she replaced the straight faces and stern eyes. Digging deep in her memory, she recalled enough times when she had seen smiles on these faces. Not big ones, just enough to show that this was a happy gathering, as if they had all managed to get together one last time and enjoy themselves without the weight of an empire on their shoulders. Satisfied with the understated smiles she had given the family, Jin closed the sketch book to continue at another point. About this time Jin could feel her ears burning and thought perhaps it wasn't such a good idea to let Fiora go alone...

Yvaine notes the red creeping into Fiora's ears as she asserts that life is seldom uncomplicated, and manages not to look to amused as, nodding in agreement with her sister's statement, in a mildly forcibly cheerful tone replies, "You are not wrong, sis'," deciding not to dwell overlong on the train of thought when she has managed to keep herself from falling over the edge of the gaping chasm of melancholy that life's most recent complication has opened for her family.
Giving Fiora's had a squeeze in reply to the one she had given her, Yvaine smiles while using her free hand to mime turning a lock in a key over her lips as she says, in case the visual had not been clear enough, "My lips are sealed, Fifi! It is, after all, Fiora's news to tell, and, as such, the choice of when or if to tell it is hers and hers alone so far as Yvaine is concerned. Guessing that Fiora would prefer not to linger on the subject any longer for the time being, Yvaine suppresses her natural inclination to dig as deeply into matters as she can in order to sate her boundless curiosity, and asks what will probably seem like, unless one were somehow able to trace the path of Yvaine's thoughts from the ideas of controlling the flow of information and learning more about others through observing their behavior to the question of how one's interests in such things might be put to use in a way that was of benefit to the Empire their father built, which has been very much on her mind since her father spoke his last words to her, a very random question, What do you know about Psyops? Well, she amends her question upon realizing it perhaps too broad, getting into that field, I mean. Like, she continues refining her question without pausing at all between each attempt to clarify one last time, would a degree in behavioral science be better than one in political science, in your opinion?" Psyops were best the domain of Aunt Azria, many years ago... Long before you and Remus were born, she started and lead the Commissariat. I'm not sure who fills such a role, but they conduct a lot of such work for the Stormtrooper training program and the more general populace education programs. I believe they have offices in the Central Administration Complex if you're curious. Otherwise I think it would be a good guess that Imperial Intelligence has a few programs running... Certainly a few paths forward... She took a moment to consider the two educational options Yvaine has presentedWhile the Ren have conducted such things in the past, I can't say I am any expert. However... as one sister to another, I would think behavioral science first would be the most advantageous approach. At least such understanding should provide a great boon once you research into political science. |

Yvaine listens interestedly as Fiora fields her question, finding that despite her sister's objection that she is not an expert, she has some helpful suggestions about how Yvaine might explore the idea of pursuing a career in psyops all the same. As Fiora points out, Yvaine never knew their Aunt Azria, and is surprised to learn that she would not be the first in her family to find her path led to the field that has become of interest to her.
"I could always double major, I suppose," Yvaine muses aloud, twirling a strand of her wavy blonde hair around a finger and absently nibbling on it as she often does when deep in thought, not intimidated by the prospect of trying to accomplish such a feat; academics have always been an area she has excelled in, the hard work necessary to succeed in them made easier by the fact her appetite for knowledge drives her to learn all that she can about those subjects that interest her. Though she has a few years left before she attends university, Yvaine suspects that it is never too early to start planning for the future; Fiora's suggestion that she might seek guidance from someone in either Imperial Intelligence or the Commissariat gives her options for where she can go to learn more, and she feels the familiar thrill of having a new pursuit to engage in.
Changing subjects once more with little to no connective tissue between topics, Yvaine asks, "When is the last time you ate? With a laugh, she admits, I honestly cannot remember, speaking for myself. Bobbing her eyebrows mischievously, Yvaine asks, I do not suppose you would be in the mood for conducting an impromptu raid on the kitchens, would you?"

Ok over-achiever... If anyone can do it, it'll be you...
She chuckled to ensure her joke was clear before maintaining a smile. Roland had kept her pretty well informed of her younger siblings comings and goings during his visits. Thus she was well aware of Yvaine's aptitude for study and knowledge. Never having had a traditional schooling, Fiora was rather unfamiliar with the processes others went through. But it was easy enough to make guesses as to what would be involved and that Yvaine would be ready for it. Her ears took on a red tinge again as Yvaine then shifted the topic of discussion and asked when the last time she ate was. Her thoughts still lingered upon what had happened last night and a stray thought occupied her mind for a moment as the question was asked of her. But she shook her head as Yvaine proposed a raid upon the kitchens
Oh mischievous little Sister, I am always in the mood for impromptu raids. Honestly can't remember the last time was that I ate some food... At least a day ago, so some breakfast does sound delightful...
She smirked in response. Fiora and Jin had gained quite the reputation both here and upon Prakith for such troublemaking. It seemed that such a streak continued to run in the family with Yvaine

"Indubitably!" Yvaine bobs her head with a cheerily confident grin as she agrees with both her sister's assertion that she can successfully complete a double major if she sets her mind to it as well as the characterization of an over-achiever that accompanies it, however sincerely either were intended.
Looking more than a bit puzzled, complete with an arched eyebrow, when Fiora's ears redden for no apparent reason that Yvaine can divine given the context in which the reddening occurs, Yvaine tries for a moment to guess what the reason might be, abandoning the quest soon enough when Fiora reveals that she is as hungry as Yvaine herself. "Well, that just will not do at all, dearest sister of mine, Yvaine says as she takes a hold of Fiora's hand and begins running towards the kitchens, We shall have to remedy that oversight immediately!"
Releasing Fiora's hand once they have reached the kitchen, Yvaine begins going though pantries and drawers, tossing the occasional utensil, pan or ingredient on the counter behind her. Grinning as, producing a packet of nerf jerky from a pantry, she holds the packet out to Fiora, Yvaine asks, "Who am I? then does her best impression of a certain uncle as she asks, Jerky? Giggling as she tosses the jerky back into the pantry, Yvaine claps her hands and then, tossing a loaf of bread, followed quickly by a crock of butter and then a jar of jam, tells her sister, You are in charge of toast, before sliding a carton of eggs down the counter towards the Stormtrooper that has been shadowing her as she announces cheerfully, You are on egg duty, then tosses the trooper a spatula before holding a pack of bacon up as she decrees, And I will take care of this."
Looking at the Stormtrooper, comically holding the spatula up and looking at it as though debating whether or not protecting the Princesses requires cooking for them as well, Yvaine nods and says helpfully, "You use that to flip the eggs, or just stir them if scrambled is your specialty. Bumping Fiora's hip with her own, Yvaine smiles and says helpfully, Just pop the slices in the toaster and press the lever down, sis', before clapping her hands again and cheerfully explaining to both her sister and the Stormtrooper, Come on, if we all start now, we can have everything ready at the same time. Get going, chop chop!"

Fiora held her helmet tight beneath her arm as she ran along to keep up with her sister, hands entangled and dragging Fiora along the corridors through the Palace. Reprieve came as they got to the Kitchen where she could set her helmet down and set herself up briefly on one of the benches while Yvaine went rummaging through the pantry. She made sure to keep clear of the flying utensils and ingredients before letting out a laugh as Yvaine offered some Jerky. She got the feeling Brock would be rather flattered by the impression. He was an odd sort like that, very nonchalant about such matters.
She slipped off the bench top as Yvaine started passing out ingredients. Thankfully the cooks had already left out the toasters and sandwich presses, otherwise she would have wasted a good deal of time trying to figure out where they were stored away. Given this whole operation was Yvaine's idea, it only made sense she would be making calls on who cooked what, even choosing her own ask as probably the tastiest. Within moments she was spilling bread out onto the bench and loading up slices into the toasters as the Stormtrooper was being ordered about by Yvaine for egg cooking duty
Don't forget a pinch of salt and pepper. The Eggs need proper seasoning!
She ruffled Yvaine's hair then, with the bread in and cooking, she would have some time to spend overseeing the bacon cooking operation
Come on slow poke, I'll be done with the toast before you're halfway done with the bacon...
She slumped her chin on Yvaine's shoulder dramatically
And I desperately need proper fooood...

The Stormtrooper, when reminded eggs are better when seasoned correctly, continues stirring the eggs in question with the spatula in one hand while using the other to hold up a salt and pepper shaker to let Fiora know that her reminder is, while appreciated, not necessary.
Giggling at the trooper's silent reply to Fiora, Yvaine, patting Fiora's cheek as her sister rests her chin on Yvaine's shoulder, tosses her head to restore some semblance of order to her unruly mop of wavy blonde hair after Fiora ruffles it, and then waves her hands, now both bearing forks to turn the bacon over when the time arrives, over the three pans she is using to ensure her part of the repast is done in a timely fashion as she tells her sister, "I will have you know that I have witnessed Master Chef Buf Fett at work, dear sister, and learned from his techniques, spotting a few pieces of bacon getting perilously close to going from crispy to burnt, Yvaine moves quickly to turn them as she says, Well, we can't all be Buf Fett, can we? Yvaine playfully shoos Fiora towards the toasters as one of them dings and launches a few slices up into the air, cheerfully telling her, I believe you have buttering and jamming to attend to, sis', and you had best get to it, as this bacon is almost ready."
Managing to finish the bacon, which ranges from slightly crispy to extra crispy with only a single piece crossing the line int burnt, Yvaine pats her portion of the breakfast down with paper towels to blot the excess grease from them and has it divvied up onto three plates just in time for the Stormtrooper to start dishing up the eggs, which look fluffy and delicious, onto the plates.
Hiding the evidence of her lone burnt bit of bacon by popping it into her mouth, Yvaine starts sliding plates over the counter to Fiora, playfully asking, "Is that toast ready, Fifi? Snapping her fingers, Yvaine suddenly exclaims, Juice! We need juice! and then, waving for the Stormtrooper to bring the plates to the island so they can sit on the stools around it as they eat, says, Not to worry, juice is on the way, looking over her shoulder as she roots in the fridge for a suitable juice to pair with their meal as she asks, Do we need coffee too? The Stormtrooper, apparently of the mind that caffeine is the last thing Yvaine needs, shakes their head emphatically, earning a cheery, No coffee, which is followed up by a glance at Fiora as she asks, No coffee?" in case her sister has a different opinion than the Stormtrooper.

She let out a chuckle as Yvaine patted her cheek. It was nice getting to share this moment with her younger sister. Just the pair doing some sisterly bonding after years of Fiora keeping her distance. The thought of which ate away at her a little, wondering if she'd done the right thing. Wondering if Yvaine would understand why. But she pushed such thoughts to the back of her mind as she oversaw Yvaine cooking the baconthe Chef Buf Fett, of the Beskar Bes'uliik? Yes I have heard he is quite revered. Not everyone gets to design and build their own restaurant with a ship builder... Just be careful not to burn too much sister... She pushed off and away as Yvaine shooed at her. Fiora's hand reached out and caught the pieces of toast in the air above the toaster, holding them there for a moment before setting them down on the cutting board. More and more pieces were popping up ready due to the closeness of when she started them. Some were lightly toasted, while others were in for longer periods. Allowing Fiora to butter up and apply jam to the lightly toasted pieces, before the next batch was ready.
As the plates came sliding over, she started loading them up. She gave a serious look and nodded firmly as Yvaine asked after the toastYes Chef! As the plates were loaded up, she passed them back across to the Stormtrooper. From the central serving plates they would be able to dish up their meals easily enough. Fiora did some quick cleaning and slid the cutting boards into the sink as Yvaine remembered that they needed juice. As her younger sister than asked after coffee, Fiora supressed a giggle. She remembered doing something similar when she was much younger, always asking one parent/adult before asking another if you did not get the answer you wanted the first timeNo coffee for me, thanks. Juice is just fine. She moved around the bench to the central island where she started serving up a plate for herselfHmmm... I should probably take some back for Jin... She blushed a little as she then took a second plate and loaded it with some bacon and eggs and toast, her thoughts reaching out for Jin Song Don't go far, someone is going to get breakfast in bed, if I find you are still there.It was both a bit exciting and a bit nerve wracking to think about. But she did her best not to lose her composure too much as she sat down and waited for Yvaine to arrive with the Juice

"The very one, Yvaine confirms when Fiora asks if the Buf Fett she had mentioned was the Buf Fett of the Beskar Bes'uliik, cheerily telling her sister, I met him a few times when Mum, Remus and I went to Agamar to visit the Mandos."
Pouting just a bit when Fiora also declines the offer to make coffee, Yvaine returns her attention to finding juice, emerging with a pitcher of purple juice held aloft triumphantly as she cheerfully exclaims, "We have juice! As she finds glasses and goes to join the Stormtrooper and Fiora at the central island, Yvaine says, I am not sure what kind of juice it is though. As she pours them each a glass, she ventures a few guesses, Meiloorun, maybe? Oooorr possibly Jogan? Handing a glass to Fiora after passing one to the Stormtrooper, she clinks it with her own and smiles as she says, This is nice, right? I wish we could do this more often. When Fiora says that she should take some to Jin, Yvaine almost suggests that she just invite Jin to join them now, but when she sees the blush reconsiders and decides not to risk unintentionally embarrassing Fiora. I wonder if there is enough to take back for Mum and Remmy? Shrugging, she grins and cheerily says, Actually, the Aunties will probably make sure they are watered and fed. More for us, Yvaine says, then, after sipping her juice, says, Definitely Jogan."

The First Order-Mandalorian alliance where Agamar was concerned was fairly well known, which meant it was little surprise that the famed Mandalorian Chef would have been found there. Fiora looked toward the fridge as Yvaine appeared with a pitcher of Juice and joined the table pouring out glasses. She accepted the glass and gently returns the clink and feels her heart break a little as Yvaine wished they could do this more often
Evvy...
She lets out a brief sigh as she takes a swig of her Juice
It is nice. However I fear my extended presence would only serve to add friction to a delicate time... The Ren are not all that well loved...
She makes herself smile then, reaching over to give Yvaine a one armed hug. She had been tempted to invite Jin down to join them, but Fiora had spent a lot of time away from Yvaine and just wanted to enjoy as much of this time alone together as possible. Well, as alone as possible considering the presence of the lone Stormtrooper that had been guarding Yvaine all day
It just makes these few moments we do get like this mean all the more little sister...
She sat back upright and continued digging into her food, her appetite returning a little bit after the events of the last couple days. Chuckling as Yvaine spoke of Faina and Remus like pets that needed to be cared for
Hmm... I think Faina might need something different than food... I have an idea...
She pulled out a small recon probe from a pocket and set it up in the air as she leaned into close to Yvaine and smiled as a short timer ran down and took the photo. Returning the small device into her pocket, she sent a copy of the image to Yvaine
Print a copy of that off, and make sure she finds a good frame...
She directed the second half of that comment to the Stormtrooper enjoying breakfast with them. As much as she loved her sister, she did require a little bit of adult supervision sometimes. Her attention returned back to Yvaine and enjoyed some more of the Juice
Good choice of drink.

Yvaine's bright, happy smile when Fiora uses her nickname is short-lived, replaced with tightly pursed lips when her older sister reminds her of the reasons that she cannot be with the family as often as they would all like her to be; while Yvaine would like to protest, she not only knows all of the reasons that Fiora being a Knight of Ren has meant that their family is seldom able to be together for long, and so her discontent expression does not linger long as she willfully decides to focus on enjoying the time that she does have with her sister, though that does not prevent her from crinkling her freckled nose and opining grumpily, "Politics and needing to worry about perception aaaallll the time can be reeeaalllly effing annoying sometimes, putting her arm around Fiora when her sister pulls her into a one armed hug, and bobbing her head in emphatic agreement with the words accompanying the hug, Well said, big sis'!"
Frowning ever so slightly when Fiora suggests that their mother might need something other than food, reminding Yvaine of the deeply despondent state their mum had been in when she last saw her, Yvaine cocks an eyebrow inquisitively as Fiora follows her comment up with the assertion that she has an idea. Smiling cheerfully when she sees what her sister has in mind, Yvaine leans over closer to her, nearly bumping heads with her sister as they both do so at the same time, and smiles as the recon probe takes their picture.
As the Stormtrooper, revealed, now that her helmet is off so she can eat, to be a pale skinned Nagai with high cheekbones and her features still mostly hidden behind the curtains of her dark, chin length hair, gives Fiora a thumbs up in lieu of a verbal response as she has no wish to intrude on the sisters' time together any more than necessary, while continuing to eat when tasked with seeing that Yvaine puts a copy of their picture in a suitable frame before it is presented to their mother, Yvaine pecks Fiora on the cheek and chirps cheerily, "Great idea, Fifi! She'll love it! Holding up a finger after nodding in agreement with Fiora about the juice, Yvaine suggests excitedly as the idea occurs to her, Hey, why don't we give it to her together?"

It had been a very close near miss as their heads almost collided as they leaned in close to one another at the same time. Which Fiora felt honestly added something special to the photo. With the Stormtroopers assurance given, she felt some slight relief before turning to Yvaine as her sister kissed her cheek. She motions to the second plate of food as Yvaine suggests delivering the gift to Faina together
I have my own gift to deliver. Jin will be in need of some breakfast after... uhh... I don't think she has eaten anything in a day or so either. I'm trusting you with this important task Evvy. But... perhaps tonight we sneak her away for a little dinner? I can ask Jin, and we can invite Remmy... and I suppose Ocky with his dour expression too... Or we keep it to the three of us as a bit of a girls only dinner?
She was certain Yvaine would be disappointed at the rejection for now, but Fiora hoped she had at least provided an alternative option that would satisfy her

While Yvaine manages not to pout when Fiora reminds her that she has plans to bring Jin some of the breakfast they prepared, telling herself that she really can't expect to have Fiora to herself no matter how much she would like to, she is not able to entirely keep her disappointment from revealing itself in her expression and posture, though her chagrin lasts only until her older sister suggests that they might have dinner later on that evening, and she perks back up instantly, smiling happily as she says, "That would be great, Fifi!"
Pursing her lips in thought as she considers the options Fiora has presented, Yvaine feels a bit selfish that her preference would be that they go with the girls only dinner, as she imagines that everyone in their family wants to spend time with Fiora given how infrequently the opportunity presents itself. Sounding mildly reluctant, Yvaine says, "I guess we should at least give everyone the option, shouldn't we? Crinkling her nose and trying not to reveal her preference, Yvaine muses aloud, Getting Mum out will probably be difficult, since their mother is understandably devastated and has yet to emerge from her bedroom, and Remus is bound and determined to stay in place in case Ocky needs him, as the family's youngest son seems, to Yvaine, unwilling or unable to accept that, as he is so young and Ocky has his own circle of trusted advisors, there is really not much that he can do for their older brother, and Ocky will probably be busy, Yvaine muses, guessing that Ocky will have so much on his plate for the immediate future that they will not be seeing much of him. Shrugging with a sigh, feeling as though their family is, as has often been the case throughout her life, so very rarely afforded opportunities to be all together, Yvaine says, Still, it can't hurt to ask them, right?"

As expected, the reminder of her prior agreed plans with Jin had not sat well with Yvaine. But thankfully her gambit for dinner plans paid off as her sisters disappointed lasted only a few moments before turning to excitement once more. She finished some toast as Yvaine mused through how difficult it would be to get everyone together. Certainly a herculean task, but not one that would have to succeed at. The most important one would be Faina. Once the funeral was over and Octavian's inauguration was done, Fiora would be headed back to Prakith with the Ren. It would undoubtedly be some time before she could get away from training her Squires and running missions to visit Coruscant again
Even if Ocky and Remmy decline, we will have at least asked. The important one is Faina... If we can't get her to dinner, we'll take dinner to her.
Faina would undoubtedly be in mourning for quite some time, but like Octavian, Fiora would not let her just wallow away and fall to depression. While she couldn't truly understand the true depths of what Faina had lost, there was still much yet for Faina to live for and be brought joy by
