Alana has collected her gun, and donned her protective jumpsuit from Jay under her red, dahlia-patterned wrap dress. She's ready to leave, to confront Hannibal Lecter in her world. She's tired of waiting for Rae--the past two years have been mind-numbing--so Alana has decided to take X's offer and go home with just her instead.

Hands trembling, Alana pens a few notes while sitting at the bar. Her nerves are jittery; for two years she's been putting off this confrontation, and though she's wracked with anxiety, she does feel she's ready.

Dear Guppy Sandhu,
I'm leaving the bar to confront Dr. Lecter in my world. It's time. I might not be coming back, so I wanted to say goodbye to you personally and apologize for leaving you with Life Support. Wish me luck.

-Alana Bloom

And also:

Dear X,
I'm ready to leave the bar, and I need your help. Rae Seddon will not be coming with us. Please contact me when you're ready. Thank you for being willing to help me.

-Alana Bloom

And finally:

Dear Rae,
I'm ready to leave the bar. I'm sorry I couldn't wait for you any longer. I hope that whatever you needed to accomplish in your world was finished to your satisfaction. Thank you for offering to help me. I might not be coming back, so take care of yourself.

-Alana Bloom

Notes delivered, Alana wraps her shaking hands around her latte and waits.

"Oh, really?" Alana says, tilting her head. "Learn anything interesting?"

"I found out that they've had a history of revolution, republics and empires. The technology's different but the protests and battles and retaliations all felt familiar,"

He hopes that his galaxy won't get stuck in that round of violence.

"I see," Alana says, nodding thoughtfully. "I hope you learned something that you can take back with you."

[childofrebellion]

"Not yet but its interesting to see how other places have dealt with the same challenges."

[patterns_bloom]

"I can understand that," Alana says, inclining her head. "Good luck dealing with your own Empire, Cassian."

(OOC: Maybe nearing a fade on them. I look forward to reading how her confrontation goes.)

"And I hope your own confrontation goes without too many complications," She's been dreading it for so long, he hopes it goes by quickly.

"Thank you," Alana says, lowering her eyes.

[OOC: Fade looks good! Thank you for the thread. I hope the confrontation lives up to the hype.]
