There is a tense student that has been absent from her lessons for several days. Granted she had left a note.

WIth a bow, holdong her strawberry smoothie, "Good Afternoon."

Mace bows back to her. "Amanda. Please, sit." He indicates the empty space in the booth.

SHe gives him a hug before gratefully taking the seat. Sipping her smoothie because she really needs the nuritment.

"How have you been?"

"I have been well, and yourself?" He sips tea.

She hesitates. Damn she just can't lie to him, "Well my trip started out wonderfully. Read a book, slept, went shopping, toured my friends home then her clan was betrayed and slaughtered, she was sent to the underworld where myself and a few others travelled to bring her back. We did. Got back last night." No she didn't directly answer the question.

"I see... I am sorry, for you and your friend..." That sounds so familiar... betrayed and slaughtered.

Sipping her smoothie first, "Thank you."

A long pause, "I've missed our sessions. I would have come this morning but..." she trails off. She is a bit embarassed that she was having a breakdown.

"Do not worry. We can catch up later." He nods.

"I still meissed them."and him. "What have you been upto while I've been gone? Staying out of trouble I hope."

"Working on my memories. They are progressing well..."

She smiles, "That is good. I have nearly finihsed the second part." she has been reading it every chance she gets.

"What you think of it?" he tilts head, curious...

"It is very informative." she smiles, "I am enjoying it emensely."

"I am glad you like it. I never before wrote something so long, with the express purpose of having people read it."

Look she is still smiling, "You are doing a great job. I suppose if you want some litiary critiquing then I could go back through it and look at it from that point of view." remembering to switch to galactic basic.

"I would be much glad if you could do me that favor."

"It would be my pleasure." and really he helps her so much she really doesn't mind helping him when she can.

"Oh I visisted Tatoonie last week. I'm sorry I haven't yet had a chance to visit your home. You wouldn't happen to know where it is in respect to Tatoonie. Lando doesn't know of your world." Yes she remembered the favor that she said she would do for him.

"I can give you the galactic coordinates for it." He nods, and is a bit relieved. As he hoped, it seems his world was ignored by the onslaught of galactic revolution...

"That would be wonderful. With those Lando should be able to get me there." this does reminder her that she still needs to work on that homing beacon. Though she hasn't decided if she want to turn it into a signal or a distraction.

"Indeed, the galaxy should still be the same." He nods.

minor adjustment may need to be made do to planetary shifts but really that is a rather slow process in terms of mortal life. And not the kind of thing that Amanda would really think about.

She reaches over and gives him another hug. Why?, because she needs it.

Mace is a bit surprised, but Amanda's hug is returned. Heck, she does even get held a while.

Wow. That actually helps alot. Eventually she lets go, "So have I missed anything interesting around here?"

"Nothing much earth-shaking at all. Unless something is happening in another world."

"That's good. I would hate to have missed any excitement." okay that was a joke. At this point she has had enough excitement to last at least a week.
