Current As someone else mentioned, the site seems to be in a bit of a lull - slow. I've been here more than 10 years and slow times like this are pretty far and few between.

Thessa nearly smirked as she saw the queen blush, though it was so subtle and so quick that most wouldn't have caught it. As she nodded to her master though, she slowly powered down her saber and followed the Jedi to the transport where the situation exploded. Frowning only slightly, she quietly assessed the situation as she listened. It was a very particular way of thinking, but Thessa saw the word more in variables than others, and some of the Jedi said that was a good thing - said it was easier for her to find serenity within the Jedi code. She wasn't entirely convinced of it, but it still allowed her to see in a different light than others.

When Koda finally put his foot down and left the decision to the Jedi and queen, she felt the urge to speak up, which was unusual for her (at least from Honutu's time with her). "May I?" she said quickly, stepping forward to take the floor. "This is quite obviously a trap and.. the Sith is likely to kill them men, regardless of honor or any sort of deal. In.. such a case, our priority should be the queen, however heroics would call us to action and not stand by while your men are in danger - however again, sometimes it is wise to step away. No one can be a hero if they are also dead. We are outnumbered and we sacrificed so much to get her majesty only this far.." She paused, feeling all the eyes on her. She was confident in her thoughts, but was unsure how it would be taken, still she pressed on. "Let us not waste time, lest their sacrifice be in vain.. those are my thoughts." Stepping back once more, she folded her hands quietly. Again, she hadn't normally been one to speak out and returned to her normal position as the quiet observer.
"Hm?" The bard seemed surprised by Kali's forwardness and just smirked. ".. oh, is she claimed, then?" The redhead leaned a little back from Cecilia as she examined Kali with an almost knowing smile, while the goddess herself glanced towards her companion, but mostly kept her expression in check - excluding the obvious blush on her cheeks. "All right then - more serious matters. Sure. If you've got the coin, I'll be around later tonight. Do whatever you need to do.. but, uh.. don't waste it all on a room, eh?" The bard smiled amusingly. "Don't want to make her too sore to come down the stairs.." Without giving either of them a moment to argue about it, she had spun around and started to walk away. Though, in truth, if Kali truly wanted to stop her - she could have - her senses and reflexes were still at amazing heights.

As the bard disappeared into the crowd though, Cecilia started to bite her lip softly, seeming to stare off into thought for several moment. Clearing her throat finally and turning to Kali with a soft smile, her cheeks were none-the-less red. "So.. um.. yeah.. sorry.. I'm not really used to.. that kind of attention.. I got it sometimes as a mortal, but.. Samantha was kind of possessive - and never got it as my divine form. I never really.. came to the mortal plane before now or.. not this long anyways." Cecilia had reached up to light chew on her nails as she watched Kali for a few moment, again with the thoughtful expression. "What do you think we should do next?..." Why a goddess was asking her follower such a question would've been beyond most. However the longer Kali stayed under the effects of whatever Cecilia had put her under, the more she would begin to see the goddess for who she truly was and be less under the spell of divinity. Not to say the feeling was gone, in fact, Kali seemed more acute of it than before.


As Sonya replied, she would simply nod to herself a couple of times. 'She has a good point..' she mentally replied to her reasoning. Silas had done an excellent job of leading the company and because of his tactics, they had all survived, not to mention his own personal prowess. She could only hope the man would seek a way to do good rather than make some coin - that Dixon character seemed more of the sort - though Stefano seemed even more so. "I guess it's decided then," she said out loud, looking relieved and more than content to follow her direction. However as Sonya continued, Odessa couldn't help but produce a small grin, letting a small tinge of redness blush across her cheeks. She had never thought this guardian idea had meant so much to the smaller woman and wondered quietly if she even had anyone else.

More so, as the masked woman continued, Odessa felt a strange surge of pride only subtly tainted by the sadness of her passing. She had never thought of it that way - it was a two-fold compliment though, both saying that Odessa was supposedly a wonderful person and that Sonya somehow viewed her words as trustworthy. Odessa's smile grew, though seemed more shy as she brushed her hair back in a sort of bashful way. "Well... I didn't realize you enjoyed the idea so much.. but yes, in that sense, perhaps being your charge and guardian would be the most fitting way to honor her. She was a defender.. though she often said I had a heroine's heart, she mostly saw herself as a protector of the people than a crusader for good - but her soul was pure as snow, that is without question." She pursed her lips for a moment before shrugging and just giving Sonya a genuine, warm smile.

"She would've liked you, I think."
I'm voting nay - I really only wanting people joining I actually know. Like if SimpleD ever felt the desire to ask, I'd say yes, but otherwise... the general answer is no from me.
@Arthanus - Thesaa don't give a shit! You don't tell her how to live her life! xD
... awww.... but she blushed at Thessa! *Shakes fist* There goes that romance. Thanks Cuddle! (Just messing you with :p)
Thessa patiently waited for her master to dash into the unaware group, keeping her lightsaber at the ready for any spare shots fired their way. Within moments though, her master did what he did best - upfront combat and was fighting all of them in single combat. Even Thessa was impressed by this at times as she still remembered a time when she was little and marveled at what the Force was truly capable of and to see it used with such discipline and focus - for a good cause no less - it was inspiring. As soon as the signal was made though, she powered her saber down and quickly lifted the queen off her legs, causing her to yelp in surprise. Sprinting forward with an equal level of speed, she easily made it to her master, nodding and continuing to the transport ship.

It wasn't hard for the padawan, since she was using the Force to aid her physical attributes and the queen wasn't really that heavy, and she was putting the royal on her feet only within a few flashes later. She smiled lightly to the woman before turning and watching the soldiers opening fire on the Sith line as she looked to Koda quickly. "Now that she is safe, my master and I will see what we can do for your men.." She really didn't know the man and in a situation like this, she was more often professional and quickly made her way back to Honutu, igniting her saber as she cut down the last few remaining Sith soldiers.

"Master - the captain's men." Gesturing to the other side of the doors, she knew that her master knew exactly what was happening. Part of the hallways had been slammed shut and the familiar feel of the Dark Side was creeping through, forcing Thessa to tense in ready, but still fairly confident in her abilities - more so in her master's abilities. They had fought a few Sith Apprentices during their time during the war here, so they were no strangers to the padawan.
Going to apologize and make a promise for tomorrow. To be completely honest, I'm playing Skyrim.. I've hardly had time for myself, so that's what I'm doing tonight. I have three role-plays to reply to tomorrow, so I will be doing that. =3
Well on that note, my own will likely be later tonight... I'm tired myself. Might even take a nap, god forbid, haha. Don't worry too much about SimpleD though.. I'll keep him in check. ^.-
I think I'll post tomorrow. Today is a busy day, but I am loving this role-play so far! Also apologizes if at times I don't take the lead much? I'm more used to being a normal player, but I'll try and add some spice here and there. ^.^
