As decidedly less than thrilled Tahiri had been about the fact that someone had been able to pick up on her little mental friend so easily, Karla had offered her help. Riina had been pretty quiet lately -- but Tahiri didn't feel like counting on that to last. Although she wasn't holding out too much hope yet that there was actually a chance the girl she'd only just met a few days ago could do something about this problem, it definitely couldn't hurt to find out.
So with Hurley out for a few hours she'dhandwavily given Karla a call, then took a seat on her bed to try and meditate for a little while. Talking about that particular experience was always unnerving, and just thinking about it now already had her on edge. Ergo, meditating. Or trying, anyway.
[OOC: Post is for peoples what know who they are, up whoa early for great SP justice and roomie modded with permission. Note to self, in case you forget because you are a flake, details of convo with Karla NFB like whoa, please. Notice for triggeriness: the thread with Karla will concern not-exactly-vague memories of torture, so consider that a heads-up.]

Date: 2009-06-18 04:21 am (UTC)She wasn't looking terribly eager to talk, either, which was a contrast to her usual tendency to ramble.

Date: 2009-06-18 05:31 am (UTC)handwavilyacquired earlier. "I saw Ben and Anakin spar, earlier today," she said gently, trying to get Tahiri to relax a bit.The more tense she was, the harder this would be for both of them.
no subject
Date: 2009-06-18 01:06 pm (UTC)She really wished she'd stop doing that.
"Pretty astral, aren't they. Ever seen a lightsaber duel before?" she asked instead, forcing a smile; her efforts to try and relax were practically visible.
no subject
Date: 2009-06-18 04:09 pm (UTC)She held out the bag. "Pastry?" she asked. There was quite the selection. You could get a lot for a gold coin.
no subject
Date: 2009-06-18 04:17 pm (UTC)"Did you clean out the inventory or something?" She managed a tiny smile and reached for something really, really chocolatey. "Ben's better than I am now, and I'm half a galaxy away from being anywhere near as good as Master Skywalker. I thought about going, but . . ."
Looking a bit guilty, Tahiri shrugged.
no subject
Date: 2009-06-18 04:22 pm (UTC)Karla was babbling. But if her babbling got Tahiri a little more comfortable and relaxed, Karla could keep going for hours if necessary.
She really hoped it wasn't necessary.
"Wine?" she offered. Again, a glass or two would help with the relaxing, and wouldn't interfere with any of the other brews she'd brought.
no subject
Date: 2009-06-18 04:37 pm (UTC)"I don't know," he'd replied. "When did you start coughing up one word at a time as if three or four were going to break your mouth?" Which was close to what she was doing now, like she did every time the subject of her shaping was at hand. She'd never really explained the full story to anyone, and didn't enjoy putting it into so many words.
"Sometimes the reactions are fun, huh?" she offered instead, absently rubbing at her forehead. Considering the wine, Tahiri chewed on her lip. "Maybe a little. My tolerance is pretty bad."
no subject
Date: 2009-06-18 04:48 pm (UTC)But that wasn't important now. Tahiri, and whatever her problem was, that was important. Karla probed gently. Yes, the second psychic scent was still there. It felt...quiescent, almost. But definitely waiting.
Karla called in two glasses and enough water for both of them. Her Jewel would burn off the alcohol quickly even without the water, but Karla wanted to be in perfect form. Water it was.

Date: 2009-06-18 05:04 pm (UTC)"Waking up in the stables was embarrassing enough," she ventured shyly, reaching for one of the glasses. Swallowing hard, she asked, "Is there . . . what exactly do you need to know?"
