Why don't you take your mask off?

[Jayden Fey]

=Zeph Fey=
"Oh, that sounds a lot better."

*Zeph said and laughed lightly*

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Jayden shrugs.*

=Jayden Fey=
"I wish I knew why for Zeph can be the same way. He normally does not take to people so well."

[Queen Mother Shadow Fire]

=Shadow=
What usually happens is that when Numa takes offense to what ever the snobby son(s) did, well, it usually ends with food in the face.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
=Numa=
Your laugh is beautiful.

[Drake Firestar]

=Dark Ghost=
*For a moment Ghost smirked while they couldn't see his face and then he reached up to his mask and grabbed it.*

Of course.

*Ghost took his mask off and personally these people were really lucky because most never lived to see his face. Though when it was fully removed from his face all they would see is a kind friendly smile on his face other than that his face had many scars on it. Once scar ran from his forehead past his right eye and onto his right cheek. There was another X shaped scar on his left cheek. There were a few other smaller ones but not many probably not even worth noticing. Still he kept that friendly look on his face as he was trying ever so hard to be nice to these girls since it wasn't them he had a problem with.*

I am sorry I did not take it off sooner it didn't occur yo me that it would of probably been the polite thing to do.

*Ghost took his mask and hanged it from the right side of his utility belt just to keep it out of the way. For a moment though he blinked his eyes as they adjusted to the light it wasn't to often he did take that mask off to look at the world from his own eyes.*

[Jayden Fey]

=Zeph Fey=
"Uh, ya thank you."

*Zeph nervously laughed as she said that. Even though he had just kissed her he still was embarrassed easily.*

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

=Jayden Fey=
"Oh and is that a trait she took after from you?"

*Jayden said as he thought about how many representatives' sons had food thrown at them by Numa. It was almost a chilling thought.*

[Queen Mother Shadow Fire]

=Shadow=
What you have to understand is that Hapan women... well, we generally don't like men. No man can ever rule Hapes. And when we get offended, well, thats why Numa has a hard time getting along with guys her own age. She did get her behavior from me, yes, but if I were her age, given the way the sons' behave, I would've punched them. They act like they're better than everyone else, which is a really fast way to make Numa mad.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
=Numa=
No problem!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
=Handmaiden 3=
How did you get so many scars?

[Drake Firestar]

=Dark Ghost=
*For a moment Ghost didn't even remember he had the scars since the mask was his face most of the time and she he ended up reaching up to his face and touched the scar on his left cheek. He then began to remember what had happened to him though most of the scars came from many different battles but yet still they all were from his mercenary work. Even as he thought back to those times it would look as if his eyes clouded over as he stared off into the distance.*

The life of a mercenary is a hard one you can never go into the trade thinking you will come out the same.

[Jayden Fey]

=Jayden Fey=
*Jayde nods, he was starting to understand a little bit more how the Hapan women thought yet, it was still odd from them to view their men as second class citizens and still love each other equally. Yet it was just their tradition.*

"I see, well she was just in her actions then. However outsiders may not understand this, in most governments men rule over women or are equals. I guess you just have a unique situation here."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Zeph nods and tries to change the subject not wanting to talk about his laugh anymore.*

=Zeph Fey=

"So what else is there you want to show me?"

[Queen Mother Shadow Fire]

=Shadow=
Indeed, my people are unique.
------------------------------------------------------------
=Numa=
Do you know how to swim? It's another random question.
-----------------------------------------------------------
=Handmaiden 4=
Any sort of trade that has the sort of danger you describe, the expectation applies.

[Jayden Fey]

=Jayden Fey=
"I am sure that can be a good thing over the bad."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Zeph looked at her with uncertainty.*

=Zeph Fey=
"Ah yeah. Why such a random question."

*Zeph said wondering if Numa was going to suggest they go swimming and in fact pool(s) of some sort was the other place see wanted to show him.*

[Drake Firestar]

=Dark Ghost=
*Ghost nodded as this was very true all who took on professions like his faced the same dangers and so would most often end up something like he did.*

You are very right about that.

[Queen Mother Shadow Fire]

=Numa=
I'm impulsive. What can I say?

TO be honest though, she did want to show Zeph the pool, and show him to to relax.
----------------------------------------------------
=Shadow=
It all depends on how you look at it.
------------------------------------------------------
=Handmaiden 4=
It's common sense.

[Drake Firestar]

=Dark Ghost=
*Ghost shrugged his shoulders as the whole common sense part could be argued since there were many reasons why people took on his kind of work.*

It might not be as much common sense as you might think. You see some may become a mercenary seeking fame, fortune or even glory. There is also some you might think of it as more of an adventure and do it for that and might not even consider the risks. There is also the few who are just blood thirsty and care not for what may happen to them or they just might think they are invincible.

[Queen Mother Shadow Fire]

=Handmaiden 3=
You have a point there.

[Jayden Fey]

*Zeph ran his hand through his hair nervously.*

=Zeph Fey=
"Yeah you are pretty impulsive."

*Zeph said lightly, this was moving a lot faster then he was used to or comfortable with. Partly it had to do with him being some where that he barely new and his guide was into him. It was a lot to take it.*
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

=Jayden Fey=
"Okay so in what light do you view it in? "

[Drake Firestar]

=Dark Ghost=
*Ghost nodded it was nice to see they actually could get a conversation started that didn't include them being suspicious of him.*

You see many kinds of people when you have traveled as far as I have across the galaxy.

[Queen Mother Shadow Fire]

=Numa=
Why were you staring at me in my Mom's office?

-------------------------------------------------------------
=Shadow=
I view it is both unique, and not so unique at the same time. Take the Witches of Dathomir and the Nightsisters for example. Both parts, the word of the woman is law. Men are treated second class.

--------------------------------------------------------------
=Handmaiden 2=
The best teacher is experience.

[Jayden Fey]

*Zeph looked away, he was really getting sick of being embarrassed.*

=Zeph Fey=
"I didn't stare."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Jayden nods then holds his a finger up in protest.*

=Jayden Fey=
"Good points yet look at the examples. Neither of those groups have good conditions for their citizens as a whole. There is no need to put down others the way they do. Which I hope is far from the way you act."

[Queen Mother Shadow Fire]

Numa shut up at that moment. Then her face turned sad, she had a vision of something very, very worrying.
-------------------------------------
=Shadow=
I do not act the way the Dathomiri do. The Witches follow my people's example, the Nightsisters... Oh, they're a different breed!

[Jayden Fey]

*Zeph frowned he didn't want her to become silent. He then grabbed Numa's hand.*

=Zeph Fey=
"Come on let's get going. We can go to where ever it is you wanted to go."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

=Jayden Fey=
"Yes, yes yet the problem is that is that way some people see you. See from the outside your culture can come off as brutal. Even though you are nothing close to the Nightsisters the ignorant can not tell you apart and trust me majority of people are ignorant."

[Queen Mother Shadow Fire]

=Numa=
I Just saw something in the Force that was really worrying.

She brightened some when she saw that Zeph was holding her hand again. What she saw, she saw him hurt.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
=Shadow=
And the problem is its a heck of a time trying to get into the Hapes Cluster. If people could see hat my people were truly like, they'd see we are far different than the Nightsisters.

[Jayden Fey]

*Zeph smiled and her and shook his head.*

=Zeph Fey=
"I am sure it was nothing, there is a lot going on in the force with the wars. I wouldn't worry over it."

*He said as he took both of her hands in his own. Zeph wanted Numa to trust him and not to worry other a vision. *

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

=Jayden Fey=
"You are right and if it were not for the wars I would push for you opening your borders fully. Yet for now maybe the best we can do is to invite as many senators here as will come. With your agreement of course."

[Queen Mother Shadow Fire]

=Numa=
You see, the vision was about you. You were hurt here. I could not see who did it.

It made her smile, seeing that he took both of her hands in his own. So warm.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=Shadow=
The only people my borders are truly open to are my own, Ryloth, Kashyyyk, Mon Calamiri, and of course, the GA.

[Jayden Fey]

*Zeph gulped, that was so unexpected. Him being hurt, how in the world was he to reply to that seriously.*

=Zeph Fey=
"Oh. Well I don't plan on being injured so don't worry about it."

*Zeph said with a half smirk, he really did not feel like smiling yet he couldn't start freaking out that would get him no where and do nothing for him.*

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

=Jayden Fey=
"Maybe this is a issue we will have to work on over time then. A quick fix most likely will not come to be successful. "

*He paused for a moment and went on.*

"Is there any thing else we need to talk over? Personally I believe there are no issues in are allaince as it stands at this moment."

[Queen Mother Shadow Fire]

=Numa=
In that case, do you want to go swimming?
-----------------------------------------------------
=Shadow=
They all helped my people at some point in time. I am friends with the Twi'lek clan leaders and the Wookiee Clan leaders. I can speak and understand Twi'leki, and I can understand the Wookiee language. I am friends with the Mon Calamiri because they saved my life more than once when I was in the Order. I can think of nothing more to talk about, but lets let our children enjoy themselves some more. Indeed, I've not sensed Numa this happy since she was little.
