[Day 1 - EN] Monday Night Huttball

[Joran Panteer]

With that done, Cynella headed over to the dear prince. While the presence of others complicated matters (especially a... Sith?), she was unwilling to be so daunted twice in one day! "Prince Joran," she said, hovering by as to not intrude too heavily. "Do you mind if I accompany you this evening as well? I would have said hi earlier today but... well, I'm afraid I didn't make a good impression in regards to the Queen."

Joran nodded and said, "Yeah that looked rough, you okay?"

[Zeno Thul]

"So you will be playing for Thul?" she asked.

"Gonna see if you can sub in for an Organa player so you can try to lay me out on the field in front of everyone?" he smiles at that.

"Huttball! Kriff what a great game... you see that play! That's how you play the game!" he shouted and then said to Zeno, "Your... Zeno Thul, right? Whose your team?"

"Monkey Lizards. Dango's cunning and knows how to put a team together," he says, giving him a smirk. "No hard feelings when they beat your Frog Dogs right?"

[Joran Panteer]

"Monkey Lizards. Dango's cunning and knows how to put a team together," he says, giving him a smirk. "No hard feelings when they beat your Frog Dogs right?"

"Well some hard feelings but if you buy me a drink, it will be water under the bridge," he said with a laugh.

[Yulastranza Ulgo]

Yulastranza said, "I might just have to do that, if only to see if you can actually play."

[Garth Wayne Ulgo]

Arsele turned to the speaker and lifted her whiskey sour in greetings, "Oh it's fine enough, I suppose. Even amateur Huttball has an appeal of sorts, no?"

She gave a sly smirk before taking a sip of the aforementioned drink.

"If'n this is amateur, ah'd hate t' hear what ye'd call th' abomination me an' the squad played when we's off duty." He jokes as he clinks her beer bottle against Arsele's glass.

"Y' sound like a bit of a student of th' game. Any insights y' can offer fer what they can do t' improve?"

[Arsele Girard]

"If'n this is amateur, ah'd hate t' hear what ye'd call th' abomination me an' the squad played when we's off duty." He jokes as he clinks her beer bottle against Arsele's glass.

"Y' sound like a bit of a student of th' game. Any insights y' can offer fer what they can do t' improve?"

"Well, hopefully you and your squad didn't have commercials, so would probably be more interesting to watch. As to pointers? Hm."

The smile melted into something nostalgically thoughtful, "...maybe. But that would depend on your level of skill and playstyle. No point telling someone what they already know, after all."

[Zeno Thul]

"Well some hard feelings but if you buy me a drink, it will be water under the bridge," he said with a laugh.

"Then I'll get it now... I've got that much faith," he says with a smirk. He orders another drink for Joran.

Yulastranza said, "I might just have to do that, if only to see if you can actually play."

"If it happens, I'll look forward to it," he says with a smirk. "But I'm more partial to winning and not just playing."

[Garth Wayne Ulgo]

The smile melted into something nostalgically thoughtful, "...maybe. But that would depend on your level of skill and playstyle. No point telling someone what they already know, after all."

"Well our arena weren't as nice, and our hazards were more mud pits th'n fire. The brass din' want their pilots reportin' f'r duty wi' third degree burns...or worse. But wi'out over boasting ah were a fine downfield receiver. Not sure ah'll get a chance t' prove m' skills though."

[Cynella Andrim]

Joran nodded and said, "Yeah that looked rough, you okay?"

"By the stars, yes," Cynella said with a warm smile. "If I allowed one setback to ruin me, I wouldn't be a good noblewoman, now would I?" Well, back then, she was only able to nullify the one...

"Humor me this, if you will: why is it called Huttball? It's hard to imagine them taking the field. I met a Hutt earlier, in fact, which is why I'm even considering this."

[Joran Panteer]

"By the stars, yes," Cynella said with a warm smile. "If I allowed one setback to ruin me, I wouldn't be a good noblewoman, now would I?" Well, back then, she was only able to nullify the one...

"Humor me this, if you will: why is it called Huttball? It's hard to imagine them taking the field. I met a Hutt earlier, in fact, which is why I'm even considering this."

"I think cause Hutts made it... I don't know," he said chuckling. "I bet they probably just stole it or bought it off another world or species."

[Delmi Koor]

Delmi arrived at the game wearing a bit more casual wear and found herself a place near all the other folks.

Brings back some memories...

[Yulastranza Ulgo]

"If it happens, I'll look forward to it," he says with a smirk. "But I'm more partial to winning and not just playing."

"Confidence is high," she said sizing him up. "We both can't win, and I don't lose."

[Cynella Andrim]

"I think cause Hutts made it... I don't know," he said chuckling. "I bet they probably just stole it or bought it off another world or species."

"You better not suggest such a thing as theft in front of the visiting Keyhote," Cynella said with a wry grin. "I'm sure he would take offense. My, he might even challenge you to honorable combat or something of the sort! Would be an awkward encounter during all this merriment, that's for sure."

[Zeno Thul]

"Confidence is high," she said sizing him up. "We both can't win, and I don't lose."

"Well, I haven't lost a pro HuttBall game yet. I'm open to new experiences, but that one always seems out of reach," he replies with plenty of confidence, and a playful smirk. He doesn't know if she's feeling super serious about it, but a good bit of competition is fun for Zeno.

[Joran Panteer]

"You better not suggest such a thing as theft in front of the visiting Keyhote," Cynella said with a wry grin. "I'm sure he would take offense. My, he might even challenge you to honorable combat or something of the sort! Would be an awkward encounter during all this merriment, that's for sure."

“On the contrary an epic duel for the pretty hand of a pretty woman is exactly the kind of story we need,” he teased.

“It’s not a real festival until there has been at least one duel for love, that’s Alderaanian law. Pretty sure if it’s ever broken the planet would explode.”

“It’s not a real festival until there has been at least one duel for love, that’s Alderaanian law. Pretty sure if it’s ever broken the planet would explode.”

"Oh my. I don't think he was trying to win my favor, if that's what you're worried about." Well, she already said that she was also interested in his sister. Best not bring that part up again.

"Would be a shame if the planet blew up. I suppose I'll have to be ready to duel in that case. Can't say I've ever tried my hand at a sword before. Have you?"

[Riss]

Riss was hovering around, keeping an eye on things but more importantly an ear. From what she could tell things were going pretty smoothly for the start. Which meant it was time to just put herself close enough she could jump in at any moment she was needed. A seat or two away from Cynella she passes a glance beyond toward Joran. Smiling if noticed, but otherwise maintaining that little distance as not to overwhelm his attention as split as it was.

Quite pleased being left to her own devices, beer in hand and the game on the screen.

[Yulastranza Ulgo]

"Well, I haven't lost a pro HuttBall game yet. I'm open to new experiences, but that one always seems out of reach," he replies with plenty of confidence, and a playful smirk. He doesn't know if she's feeling super serious about it, but a good bit of competition is fun for Zeno.

"Now you are just kriffing with me, pro-Huttball?" she asked.

[Joran Panteer]

"Oh my. I don't think he was trying to win my favor, if that's what you're worried about." Well, she already said that she was also interested in his sister. Best not bring that part up again.

"Would be a shame if the planet blew up. I suppose I'll have to be ready to duel in that case. Can't say I've ever tried my hand at a sword before. Have you?"

"My education covered the art of swordsmanship," he said proudly. "On Alderaan one should always be ready to duel."

"What have you tried your hand at then?"

[Zeno Thul]

"Now you are just kriffing with me, pro-Huttball?" she asked.

He smirks, "Like I said, gotta show my loyalty to the Monkey Lizards. It's not a long record, but I did sub in on the Monkey Lizards and played with the Valkyries. Been a while, but you can probably find holos of the games."
