weetuskenraider: (Concentrating (Use the Force))
[personal profile] weetuskenraider
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'd handwavily 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.]

Karla knocked, hesitating outside of Tahiri's room. She'd gotten Tahiri's call a while ago, but had taken some time to put together a few supplies.

"Excuse me?" she called softly. "Tahiri?"

"Hi," Karla said quietly, slipping inside. "I'm sorry it took so long for me to arrive, but I had some preparations to make. I...wasn't sure what would be needed." She glanced around. "May I sit?"

Karla sat down on the end of the bed, giving Tahiri as much room as possible. There was something about her that reminded Karla of a wounded Arcerian cat. Not entirely trusting and ready to shy. "I brought wine and chocolates, as promised," she said, smiling. She called in a bottle and a bag from J,GOB handwavily acquired 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.

Karla caught the flinch and mentally kicked herself. She wasn't sure what she had said wrong, but she certainly had said something. Still, there was nothing to do but keep going. "Never. I'd never even hear of a lightsaber before. But Ben and I were practicinging in the gym at the same time, and he invited me to watch them practice. They are quite impressive."

She held out the bag. "Pastry?" she asked. There was quite the selection. You could get a lot for a gold coin.

"I only have gold coins to pay with, and the staff insisted I get as close to full value as they could get. We compromised, though, since I didn't want to clean them out completely--I was worried for my safety if I did. So they gave me half the value of the coin in treats, and now I have half remaining in credit for future visits. I should probably switch my money over into this world's currency, but I admit I enjoy the look on the shopkeeper's faces when I pull out a handful of gold coins."

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.

Date: 2009-06-18 04:48 pm (UTC)
glacial_queen: (I need a drink)
From: [personal profile] glacial_queen
"This wine is very strong," Karla said. "Though if we mix it with a little water, it shouldn't be too bad. It's how I first started drinking wine, and how I drink it with dinner. It would be horrifically embarrassing to get drunk at a dinner party, wouldn't it?" Not to mention dreadfully dangerous, at least, back at Karla's familial estate.

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.

"We could start with what happened," Karla asked gently. "Is it something you can talk about?"

Back home, there were so may witches who couldn't.

A decidedly wrung-out Ben tapped quietly at Tahiri's door.

"He prefers to be called Anakin Skywalker," Ben said, "but pretty much."

"Nothing the galaxy's longest nap won't cure," he assured her. "Have you met with Karla yet?" He looked into her eyes. "Or just having a really bad morning?"

Going a few rounds with his grandfather, both with lightsabers and without had been equally draining.

"Want to talk about it at all?" he murmured.

momslilassassin: (Ben: lipbiting)

"Not really," Ben admitted, reaching out for her hand.

momslilassassin: (Ben: gawking)
From: [personal profile] momslilassassin
Ben let in a little hiss of air. "Do you think it will help at all?"
