[Day 1 - EA] Good Kids

[Dapper Dog]

"Unlikely, I find courts of law tedious. Now, out of those bushes. A hero might stand alone, but he stands tall, and his shadow is long. We need to plan your next steps."

He frowned as head lekku shifted and then he said, "You're a weird one, Hutt."

Meanwhile

Tarlia let her earnestness do most of the work of convincing the pair. Like an adorable puppy. Who would want to deny something to an adorable puppy.

"Since you asked nicely, yeah we might have brought the kid here from an undisclosed Outer Rim location... across certain lines and borders," he responded.

"Completely, semi-legal."

Meanwhile

Riss finally grabbed the ring.

[Desilijic Keyhote]

He frowned as head lekku shifted and then he said, "You're a weird one, Hutt."

"A sane man in a crowd of the crazed often appears eccentric. Weird or not I intend to find the truth of your parentage."

[Dapper Dog]

"I don't understand why you care so much, Hutt, but I won't argue with you. Help is help I guess, just... okay, thanks," he finally relented standing tall or as tall as he could.

[Riss]

Knees in the dirt, kneeling for it, getting the blasted thing almost felt like more trouble than it was worth. Almost wanting to call it quits until she finally managed to feel it off the tips of her fingers and manages a grasp on it. Pulling it back out she sits back, on the ground, and gives the thing a good look over to figure out exactly what she was looking at.

Knees in the dirt, scrnling for it, getting the blasted thing almost felt like more trouble than it was worth. Almost wanting to call it quits until she finally managed to feel it off the tips of her fingers and manages a grasp on it. Pulling it back out she sits back, on the ground, and gives the thing a good look over to figure out exactly what she was looking at.

Looks like signet ring with the sigil of House Organa, old and weathered.

[Riss]

"Well Kriff me," she comments on the realization. Sitting with the thought for half a minute before she starts glancing around, looking to see if any of the others were still in view.

[Desilijic Keyhote]

"I don't understand why you care so much, Hutt, but I won't argue with you. Help is help I guess, just... okay, thanks," he finally relented standing tall or as tall as he could.

"Good man!"
Keyhote slaps him on the shoulder
"Now, which of your parents was the Organa? Or perhaps you were cloned from one?"

[Dapper Dog]

The twi'lek blinked and then looked at the Hutt, "My father... not like my birth one, but he said that as long as I have the ring... kriff, the ring."

He starts searching his pockets.

"Oh I lost it!"

[Tarlia Nirazas]

Meanwhile

Tarlia let her earnestness do most of the work of convincing the pair. Like an adorable puppy. Who would want to deny something to an adorable puppy.

"Since you asked nicely, yeah we might have brought the kid here from an undisclosed Outer Rim location... across certain lines and borders," he responded.

"Completely, semi-legal."

Tarlia nodded slowly, "...I see, and would these borders be hostile ones until recently?"

"If so then might I ask the circumstances of his choice to leave?" The Jedi keep her expression neutral now.

[Desilijic Keyhote]

The twi'lek blinked and then looked at the Hutt, "My father... not like my birth one, but he said that as long as I have the ring... kriff, the ring."

He starts searching his pockets.

"Oh I lost it!"

"Hmmm, well now it would be narratively convenient for it to appear."
Keyhote looks around
"Any moment now."

[Dapper Dog]

Tarlia nodded slowly, "...I see, and would these borders be hostile ones until recently?"

"If so then might I ask the circumstances of his choice to leave?" The Jedi keep her expression neutral now.

The Captain smiled and said, "You're bustin' my lekku, master Jedi, I can't keep track of of all the borders in the galaxy... one's man Empire is another woman's Republic. All I know is they paid me for services rendered and they were rendered. I pride myself on getting the job done. Now the why he left, that I do not know."

The wookkiee glared and shouted at him.

"Okay there might have been a slight kerfluffle about my passenger stealing the funds to pay me, but I was not involved."

Meanwhile

"Hmmm, well now it would be narratively convenient for it to appear."
Keyhote looks around
"Any moment now."

"Are you serious, signet rings just don't fall out of the sky, Kirq said don't lose it and what is the first thing I do once on Alderaan is lose it. Kriff!" the twi'lek said losing his patience.

[Tarlia Nirazas]

"Okay there might have been a slight kerfluffle about my passenger stealing the funds to pay me, but I was not involved."

"I see." Her voice lacks judgment, the young Jedi suspected the circumstances might have warranted such an action. "I know such is not the prerogative of good businessman like yourself...but did you happen to know who was stolen from...no let me be more clear, were there any problems that arose from his act?"

[Dapper Dog]

"We had to leave in a hurry, for some reason the disagreement got violent... but the pay was worth it," he offered.

The wookiee did not seem to agree, but shrugged at the futility of contesting that.

[Tarlia Nirazas]

"We had to leave in a hurry, for some reason the disagreement got violent... but the pay was worth it," he offered.

The wookiee did not seem to agree, but shrugged at the futility of contesting that.

"And, if I may ask, did that disagreement follow you here?" Tarlia nearly frowned as the situation seemed to grow even more complicated...but such was likely why the Force had steered her to intervene. The life of Jedi was not meant to be easy.

[Dapper Dog]

He gave what he felt was an honest shrug, "I have no idea, that was several hyperlanes away."

[Riss]

Meanwhile Riss was busy sitting in the dirt, looking around. Finding none of her newly minted friendly with the basic scanning she was doing she turned her attention back to the ring. Checking the size against some of her fingers she put it on whichever fit best and wore the thing before pushing herself back up to her feet.

"Now.. how hard could it be to find a Hutt? Or a Jedi.. buncha sore thumbs," she chuckles to herself, and walks off,

[Desilijic Keyhote]

"Are you serious, signet rings just don't fall out of the sky, Kirq said don't lose it and what is the first thing I do once on Alderaan is lose it. Kriff!" the twi'lek said losing his patience.

"Hmmm....Well, this quest will prove harder than anticipated! But have faith young Twi'Lek, will you abandon your cause now just because you have lost a ring? No! You shall fight onwards, ever onwards! Let us return to where you lost it and perhaps Pantha can help you search. He has small fingers for finding things."

[Dapper Dog]

"Okay, yeah good plan," he said as he started back that way and they spot Riss.

[Desilijic Keyhote]

Pointing a large arm
"Human Riss! You also have small fingers that can easily fit in things, can you lend this noble quester aid? Our new compatriot has lost a ring...probably because he also has small fingers."
It seemed a classic biped failing.

[Riss]

Spotting the Hutt she gives the pair a wave, half-jogging on over to meet them she smiles between them. "Yea, sure. I need a favor from our friend here first though," she says, glancing to the kid and stepping toward him. Extending her hand with the ring on it she looks to him, "So, what do you think about my shiny- old ring that I didn't just find on the floor," she chuckles.

"Pretty neat, right?" she says, a slight teasing in her tone.
