Rebirth of a Legend- Principal Authors: Sinistra, Lamia, Vitiosus
- Who can post on this thread: All members of the Vegemite Enclave
- I want to receive critical responses: No.
- I will be using standard Universe rules here (e.g., canon-only, fleet limits, etc.): For the most part. However, there is a self imposed limitation on all posts. Each post can be no longer than 3 sentences, and 200 words maximum. The idea is a more reactive and dynamic RP. And to be a throwback to JvS FB days, when we were all terrible at this and wrote in 3 sentence posts.
Location: The Mortus, ManaanTimeframe: Tomorrow. Lamia owes Sinistra a favor and it's time to make good on a promise to an old friend.

The chatter in the Mortus had picked up from when Syren had come looking annoyed and paranoid all in one go, when Sinistra leaned over to Lamia.
“Remember when I said you’d owe me one? It’s time to collect.”

Lamia slowly lowered her glass from her lips and looked sideways at Sinistra.
"Oh boy, I don't know if I should be excited or scared right now. What do you owe me? And will it get me injured or killed? Wait... I need a spice stick for this conversation... and maybe another drink."
Lamia refilled her glass and lit her spice stick. "Okay. I'm ready. Hit me with it. What do you have me implicated in now?"

Sinistra pulled out one herself, and lit it, licking her lips as she pulled the stick from her mouth.
"Implicated? You wound me, madam. I need you to help me raise the dead. And before you ask, no it's not the mess on the doorstep. His name is Vitiosis and I need his expertise."

Lamia raised her eyebrow at Sinistra.
"Oh please, cut the wounded act. I've seen your work and you have too. It could have very well been something that would warrant the word 'implicated'. I'm down raising the dead. I haven't done it in a wookie's age. I remember you mentioning Vitiosis. When do you want to do this, and what do you need from me?"

"No time like the present. I finally managed to get the materials to summon him, it's a matter of getting it underway. BD-01, do you have it?" She calls over to the bardroid that is currently pouring drinks for others at the counter.

*BD-01 looks up from the discussion with a patron.* No Mistress. I was unable to obtain it. It is under about 5 feet of Ice in a cave on Hoth. I do however have the coordinates. Everything you need should be on this.
*A small slot opens on BD's shoulder, and a data card pops out. He takes it out and lobs it over to Sinistra*

"Well, kriff. Grab your boots, Lams, we're going to Hoth."
Sin stood up from the table and stretched, catching the datacard and thinking about the jump to the ice world and shivered almost reflexively at the bitter cold to come.
"Your ship or mine? BD, you coming?"

"Oi! Hoth!?!?! You know what that cold weather does to my skin! For Force sake! There's no use arguing when you have your mind set. I hope I can find my Uggs. Maybe Kaine knows where they are."
Lamia finished her drink and stubbed out her spice stick. "We can take my ship. I have the sauna and extra heaters... we will need them. Give me an hour."

As you wish Mistress. I shall prepare my weapon configurations. I will be ready in approximately 24.234 minutes.*BD-01 retreats to the back room and activates the secondary Bartender droids, as it will both of them to cover the work the he does himself. After giving them their instructions, he retreats to the workroom and starts to change out the weapons that were originally installed into his chassis. 23 minutes later, he is properly outfitted and heads towards the ship.

By the time BD and Lamia had rendezvoused with Sinistra, she had already mustered a digging crew to assemble at Hoth to the coordinates she sent ahead. She dropped a spice stick to the sand, crushing it out with her boot. .
"Let's get cracking, he's not going to raise himself. I don't think at least."

*BD nods and move towards the ship* In the time since my creation, he has never exhibited such... talents, and in the years that he has been there, the perimeter and internal sensor arrays haven't alerted me of any movement. *BD hesitates for a fraction of a second* That said, they could be malfunctioning...

Lamia checked her bags again to make sure she had what she needed. She had checked in with Ryddik and let him know that she was headed to Hoth, leaving him in charge here at home. As she suspected, Kaine did know where her boots were, and was not surprised he had wedged his block feet in them. No time to worry about it now, she'd just bill him for a new pair later.
"I hope I remember how to do this... it's been a wookie's age. I think the last time I attempted this, I may have accidentally maimed a shark, but that's a story for another time. Dare I ask what you need this guy for anyway?"

"New cabana boy."
She grabbed her bags and stowed them aboard the ship, chuckling to herself as she thought of how Vitiosus would react to being called her cabana boy. She laughed even harder for when he finds out she was Empress and got bored with it.
"I'm good to go when you are."

*BD pauses for a quick moment when he hears this, before boarding the ship* I'm not 100% sure how the Master will respond to this. On the one hand, it amuses me to consider the reactions he may have. On the other, I wouldn't put it past him to disassemble me for leading you to him, just to bring him back for this.

"Oh it'll be fine. I think he'll just be happy to not be an icicle in a cave on Hoth."
She turned to Lamia, shrugging at her remarks on being out of practice.
"It's not like I do this all the time either. We try our best and it works or we get a lich."

"Oh for Force sake. He must be a pretty magical cabana boy then." Lamia found her way to her chambers and got herself settled. She found her stash in her room and got what she needed and made her way back to the bridge.
"We should be there pretty soon. In and out and let's get home."

The ship plodded through hyperspace, as Sinistra thought about what lie ahead of her to raise her old friend. Hoth, he had to be buried on Hoth. The ice world was the site of one of the first battles they fought together as acolytes at Kashyyyk Academy.
"Yeah, yeah, I know. You don't like the cold."
She sank into a chair in the cockpit, pulling a flask from her belt and holding it out to Lamia.

*BD-01 steps over to the bar and mixes Lamia's regular drink* Anything for you Mistress? A drink, or perhaps a top-up of your flask?

"i'm good, BD. What can you tell me about the tomb?"
She took a drink from the silver canister while opening her datapad to take some notes.
