A rather soaked Valentine walks into the bar from the back. She's in a grees swimsuit, which is now covered by a towel. Plunking on a stool at the bar, a book appears in front of her, along with a steaming mug of tea. Eyeballing the book: (Der Prozess mit Die Verwandlung) she picks it up and starts to read, still dripping, and very much still in her swimsuit.

Val grins, eyes sparkling. "If he asks, just tell him it's a girl you met in a cantina far, far away."

She pauses for a bit. "It's fine to trust in a power, but one can't put all of that trust in it. That's why we're human. We make things happen. I've spent most of my life being controlled by someone or something. I don't want to see anyone else get caught in that."

"He might question my meeting girls in cantinas without Corran or Gavin with me. I'm the one steady girl in Rogue Squadron. Obviously, I need protecting." She rolled her eyes.

"I know exactly what you mean...I spent a long time controlled by a man I thought I loved...and the only way I got away was killing him." She said softly.

[ooc: slowtime? or wrap? brain is protesting at hour]

Val rolls her eyes as well. "Oh, I know what you mean. Everyone around here seems to think I need protection. It gets annoying sometimes."

There's an odd choke in Val's voice. "I was controlled by, well, my brother. I can't really bring myself to kill him."

[ooc: How's about slowtime. I have a feeling these two will go on for a while.]

Inyri laughs. "And I've been through worse things than those who bodyguard me. It's crazy."

She pauses. "Val, that's horrible...I'm so sorry. The only reason I killed Zekka...was because I realised he lied...everything he said to me was a lie. And I couldn't let him betray the Rogues."

[ooc: great! I have that feeling too. XP 'night!]
