I actually addressed #2 in the CS for Ryndi:

"After an exotic performance on Zeltros, Ryndi was approached by Nahtisse Ratinde, a bounty hunter who'd tracked a fugitive to the planet.  The pair struck up a conversation and quickly became lovers, ultimately turning a casual evening into a two-week affair and head start for Nahtisse's quarry.  Feeling obligated to assist after having detained the bounty hunter for so long, Ryndi used her contacts to locate the fugitive, and thus began a sort of partnership and on-and-off relationship between her and Nahtisse.  The couple have since entered a martial union and Ryndi has relocated to Alderaan to live with Nahtisse, to whom she is very much attached.  That said, in concession to the Zeltron, Nahtisse allows her to continue her career, having redefined fidelity as loyalty rather than physical exclusivity."
