In traditional Han Solo to Darth Vader greeting, he reaches for his trusty DL-44 as fast as a non-force sensitive can and attempts to snap off a blaster bolt right to his chest.
You can't truly appreciate how bullshit the force is unless you're not a force wielder. Han doesn't have to search his feelings all that hard to come up with that kernel of wisdom.
This one doesn't even have to put down his coffee to mess with him. Sigh.
"What do you want?" He mumbles glaring daggers at Vader. "New torture technique to try out?"
I mean, he was pretty annoyed before, but that was a total dick move Vader. Do you have any idea how many hours he's spend modifying that? Removing the sight. Replacing the components. Changing out the barrel.
"Working in the core worlds these days. Got a spice run lined up that should take about three days, but after that I'm pretty open."
Mental note: Head to the Outer Rim immediately after this conversation is over.
"It's a date." He answers with a deadpan look that he honed from years of playing sabacc in smokey cantinas.
And now, surely this dark lord of the sith will let Han Solo go, now that they've made an appointment for his torture session. He gonna just start creeping over to the door now and ... is this actually gonna work?
Oh no, that's just for the official torture session, this is purely recreational. Nice try though.
Still, A for effort. He'll even let Solo think he can get away. Waiting until he tries the door to abuse his privilege as a master of the force to keep it from working. Sometimes subtle torture can be as much fun as the gritty stuff. Cats and mice and all that.
Han thumbs at the control panel to open the door. And again. And ... oh. He sees what's going on here.
He closes his eyes and counts back from ten ... before opening them again and turning around. "Something else you needed your highly exulted evilness?"
So young, so cocky... if you could only sense how much he hates you.
"Yes," He reaches out his free hand, more so Han knows exactly what's going to happen and slowly starts to squeeze his throat. "Give me a reason to wait."
Well that sensation of tightening around his windpipe did give him some idea that the dark lord is none to fond of him. Other than that, he thought this was going rather well.
"Because your next Sunday dinner with the twins is going to be really awkward if you have to explain to them why I'm dead."
"And your kids only have so many friends, lets be honest." Nobody wanted to come over and play with the Skywalkers because they had the scary dad. True fact.
You did, good for you! This is the part where he'd like to think that he doesn't get distracted by such things... but he totally does.
"I'm the most powerful being in the galaxy after the Emperor. Killing you isn't about power, it's about hurting those close to you."
How is he supposed to corrupt Luke without giving him something to be hateful over? That and the idea of you shagging the princess really, really bugs him for some reason.
Hey, this smuggler will say anything to stay alive. He really can't overstate how important not being dead really is to him. And now he can see that weird will only get him so far. Time to switch tactics.
"You know, I think you and I just got off on the wrong foot."
There is no right foot... however, he'll stay dead silent on that for now. Well, except for that whole Pffffhisssh thing every time he takes a breath. Let's see what the scoundrel has to offer.
It's not going to get him anywhere, but might as well humor him.
So quiet. You could hear a pin drop - if it happened between breaths, anyway.
"Well, you want to hurt the people close to me." Han murmurs. "But if you kill me, think of all the years I wont be around to hurt them myself."
Because, Han at this age? He's a bit of a trainwreck. It hard to imagine him becoming a great general of the New Republic. Far easier to see him disappointing Leia over and over again and driving Luke crazy.
"Interesting point." He takes a sip of his latte as if he's considering what Han said. "But if I don't kill you then I wont have that single intense moment of pure hate to use in turning Luke to the dark side."
"I'm drawing it out over a much longer period of time." Theoretically. Assuming this scoundrel lives an otherwise long life. And let's be fair, he can be really annoying.
"Either way, killing your daughter's boyfriend to make your son fall to the dark side is pretty flimsy logic too."
Shut up, he's gotta start somewhere. It's not like he just go blow up another planet or whatever. Besides it's a process, no one just decides one day to up and go to the dark side because they have cookies or whatever.
"But it'll be fun." Snap, try to deny that logic...

Your muse, ftw.
Meet Vader from Blue Milk Special ^_^
Is it just him, or does this feel familiar?
"Really? You thought that would work?" He takes a sip of his latte. "That's sad."
I've been laughing at all the threads I've seen him in.
This one doesn't even have to put down his coffee to mess with him. Sigh.
"What do you want?" He mumbles glaring daggers at Vader. "New torture technique to try out?"
OMG he's so much fun to rp
"... I hadn't thought of that. That's a good idea." He crushes the blaster and tosses it aside as he sips his latte. "What's your schedule look like?"

That, he thought, was pretty obvious. He's quiet for a few moments, as if seriously considering what Han said.
"I can do that."
Is he kidding? Will he use this as an excuse to hang out with the bounty hunters again? Who can tell.

Sorry Han, no cookies for you. It's a very exclusive club, the Dark Side Cookie Club.
