On possibly finding a place

[senator_amidala]

Mun,

I fail to see the humor in this. Your plans are not amusing. If anything they frustrate me to no end. All I wanted was some peace and quiet.

Comments

"No such thing as peace and quiet." He says with a shrug. "Once they've made the account, you're doomed."

[noooooo]

.......

[ He doesn't speak at first, but he's there. Watching in silence. When he speaks, his voice doesn't give away any of the things that are going through his head. ]

Those plans. What do they entail?

[senator_amidala]

"Have you tried changing their mind?" She asks trying to be optimistic.

[senator_amidala]

They presume to rip me from a moment of happiness to place me of some bizarre train in a strange city.

[Padme is not a happy camper.]

Not that it should matter to anyone.

[twelve_not_fourteen]

"Once a day or so."

[senator_amidala]

"That's presistant," she comments thinking that perhaps that might work. Diplomacy and all. "Have they trapped you anywhere horrific?"

[twelve_not_fourteen]

Han Solo: Diplomacy Specialist! It probably doesn't help that he never leaves for a negotiation without at least three blasters on his person.

"All over the place. Where ever we can get the attention we crave deserve."

[senator_amidala]

"That's particularly broad. So you enjoyed it?" There is curiosity to her tone.

[noooooo]

[Sorry, but it matters to him.

Somehow.]

For what purpose are they planning to do this?

[twelve_not_fourteen]

"It beats boredom."

There's only a couple of things worse than being bored in his mind. Plus, yeah, he's a little ego centric and likes when attention is paid to him.

"You don't strike me as a woman who does well without things to do."

[senator_amidala]

For their own amusement it seems.

[She finds nothing amusing it about.]

[senator_amidala]

"You would be correct with that assessment," she admits giving the strange a polite smile. "You have to stay busy with you are a Senator in the Senate. What do you do?"

[twelve_not_fourteen]

Yeah. He figured as much about her. Something about her reminds him of a certain extraordinarily task oriented princess he knows.

At her question, Han thinks to himself for a moment. This lady seems sort of ... classy? And she's a senator. Does he want to admit to being on the wrong side of the law instantly?

"Something of a pilot for hire." He settles on. That was what he tried to be, initially, so it's not even a complete lie.

[senator_amidala]

"A pilot," she smiles again at the familiar term. She's certain that there are some stories there. Whether they involved illegal activities she doesn't care to inquire.

"That must be a far from dull life." she says recalling to herself when she flew a few times while posing as a decoy. She doesn't fly as often as she'd like to these days.

"I know quite a few pilots." More curiosity strikes her. "What types of ships have you flown?"

[twelve_not_fourteen]

She wants to talk shop about piloting. Hrm. Interesting. He wasn't necessarily expecting that from her.

"The first ship I ever flew was a refitted droid freighter called the Yelsian Dream." That ship was a pile of garbage, of course, but he was really desperate at the time. "For a few years after that, I actually piloted smaller starfighters. The first ship that was really mine was a starmite class freighter."

"The one I fly now, though, is a Correllian freighter. A YT-1300. She's called The Millennium Falcon."
