Borleias, Tuesday Fandom Time

[weetuskenraider]

It had been just over two weeks since they'd arrived, and Tahiri was packing. Not to go back to Fandom -- not yet.

Luke was assembling a team to go back to Coruscant, now in Yuuzhan Vong hands; he'd had a vision of a powerful dark side presence there, an even more compelling reason to go than just the vague suspicion that Jacen, if he was still alive, was being held there.

It hadn't been for either one of those reasons that Tahiri had volunteered for the mission, though; she didn't flatter herself that her skills would be an asset on paper against a potentially powerful foe, and well . . . if she was really honest with herself, what she knew of Ben's world was coloring her opinion too.

But if he was alive and there, it was too much of a risk for Jaina to go, and that was what Tahiri had told her: twins being such an obsession for the Yuuzhan Vong, she'd endanger the mission if they knew she was there and tried to capture her too. They couldn't afford that. She still couldn't quite believe she'd won that argument against a Jaina who scared her the way the one in Fandom didn't (as much), or that she'd let loose with a variant on the same speech she'd given Mara, but she had, and so she was packing to head to Coruscant with Luke, Mara, the scientist Danni Quee, and members of Intelligence's Wraith Squadron.

And here she'd been thinking this trip hadn't been awkward enough.

Tahiri wondered how much time had passed in Fandom; from what little the Jaina there had told her about her own trips home, she guessed that time didn't necessarily move at the same pace. She had no idea how much longer she'd be gone or even what would happen, but for now she had a few minutes to herself. It seemed as good a time as any to put in a call or two back to Fandom, or wherever her friends were now.

[OOC: Yeah, this post is totally a spacer to spread things out a little longer. If your character knows what she's up to and would like a (brief) call from Tahiri, feel free to ping in as receiving one! She won't really give out details (so I don't joss myself) but you're welcome to have her check in with you if you like. Mega-SP during the day as I sneak tags on my phone and then around in the afternoon/evening Pacific time.]
