Chewbacca - Tuesday, April 11, 2000, 8:37 PM
Millenium Falcon - Entryway
The corridor curves around the core of the ship, and is padded in blocks by slightly dingy panels. In between the padding, bare instrumentation and haphazard storage is seen, and things have the feel of being half finished.
The corridor curves into the lounge and then the engine sections, and a short corridor leads to the cockpit. To the right of the cockpit hallway is the entry hatch, where you may '+s/disembark'.

You disembark.
Main Hangar Bay [Home One]
The primary hangar bay for the Alliance Flagship, this facility is large beyond words. Deck upon deck of hangars, catapults, landing pads and launch strips open into the main bay and beyond the force-shield into space. Turbolifts move between decks and control rooms dot the platforms; security details spaced at regular intervals about the hangar. While this hangar is home to a number of the ships aboard the Home One, there are other fighter hangars elsewhere in the cruiser's body.
By way of turbolifts, one can reach any of the landing decks; the main access to the body of the cruiser being a large bulkhead off the main platform.

Central Corridor [Home One]
The headquarters frigate of the Rebel Alliance, the Mon Calamari cruiser Home One, exemplifies Mon Cal esthetics. Surfaces are smooth and curved, dimensions fascinatingly irregular. Form and function blend into a harmonious whole, instrumentation and data readouts seemingly appearing from nowhere, tucked away in natural-seeming nooks. A maze of corridors winds through the ship's multiple decks. Quarters and operational facilities for thousands of beings are layered within, and the passageways are busy at all times of day and night.
There are two uniformed guards, armed with blaster carbines, at the following entrances: Bridge
Security Area Briefing Room Conference Room Command Section
Obvious exits:
You enter the observation deck.
Observation Deck [Home One]
This is the observation deck of the Mon Calamari cruiser, Home One, that serves as the Rebel Alliance's capital flagship. The observation deck, at the stern of the ship, is afforded a spectacular view of the ship's hull and beyond, as it curves gracefully away into the star-speckled blackness of space. The lighting is dim, but not uncomfortably so, the area decorated as a lounge of modest size, with comfortable seats and low tables.
The panoramic viewport is guarded by a decorative railing, as well as a large red button that can be pushed to slide blast shielding in front of it, an uncomfortable reminder of a war that seems at odds with this peaceful luxury-liner lounge. A small bank of computer terminals occupy the forward wall, by the arched portal that leads out to one of the ship's main corridors.
Players:
Solo Bandalavar
Cale Leia
Obvious exits:
At the railing before the viewport, a tall figure stands at his ease, looking pensive.
Grey eyes focused on the void beyond, the young Jedi seems almost meditative, his
attention away from the rest of the observation deck. Shifting his weight slightly at the
feeling of more people entering the room, Cale looks back over his shoulder, briefly,
before returning to his observation of the stars. "...."
Solo nods to Cale as he walks across the deck to the railing, looking out into space.
Bandalavar enters, glancing up at Cale, and stops. His face turns to a glare, and he takes
a seat near the doorway.
Solo turns to see who's coming in, and spots Leia, Chewie, and Bandalavar.
Chewbacca approaches Solo, "Rawrr." he says. He then greets Leia and Cale
similar on the way to the Captain.
Leia doesn't appear to notice terribly much as she enters, reading over a datapad in her
hand. Not a moment's rest for her, apparently. She looks up at the Rawrr, though, and
smiles at Chewie, then looks to see who got his attention, nodding in turn to Cale and
Solo with a smile.
Solo gives Chewie a barely noticable nod, then looks to Leia, offering a small smile.
"Princess Leia..."
Solo looks at Chewie. "So, how is that Xr4 droid working out, pal?"
Cale nods, and smiles faintly, at the silent greetings to him. Hey, it's a smile at all,
which makes it quite the improvement for him, being generally taciturn and unreadable.
Scrubbing a hand through his short, unruly brown hair, he spares a thoughtful frown for
Bandalavar, before shrugging to himself, and looking back at the starfield again.
"..."
Leia's smile grows warmer for Han when she is greeted and she nods to him,
"Commander." She gives a moment's pause when she turns to see Bandalavar,
frowning thoughtfully. She asks in time, her smile returning, "I don't believe we've
met. Leia Organa. And you are?"
Chewbacca tells Han, "Rawww r waargh arr waar." with what appears to be a
pleased expression.
Sitting, Bandalavar still glares at Cale's back, although when Cale does turn to him, he turns away, waiting. He wiithdraws a coin from hiis pocket, and begins to twirl it along the back of his knuckles on his right hand. As Leia speaks to him, Bandalavar stands, face softening quickly. "My name is Bandalavar Krii'Os, a pleasure to meet you." He offers his hand, reluctantly.
Kurael comes in from the central corridor.
Kurael has arrived.
Solo nods to Chewie. "Good thing...I almost broke some bones getting the thing."
Kurael enters and wanders over to the windows, his eye glinting as a squadron passes view.
Chewbacca peers at Solo, and shakes his head as though he's skeptical about this.
"Rawwr arwa aaargh."
Leia chuckles in light amusement at the reluctance Bandalavar has to offering his hand.
She accepts it in a polite shake. "A pleasure, Mr. Krii'Os."
Solos eyes widen as hegets insistive. "Its true! Just ask her..." he points to
the Princess, "she was there!"
Bandalavar pulls Leia's hand up to his lips, leaving a light kiss, and bows his head
slightly. "Leia, a beautiful name, almost as beautiful as the owner." He flashes
his over at han's outburst then back to the woman.
Chewbacca glances over at Leia, questioningly. He brandishes his hairy arms as though
requesting her preseence. "Rawwwwrrrrr."
Kurael looks over at the small group, looking on with slight interest. He sees Solo and
looks at him oddly, as if trying to remember something.
Chewbacca could also be just waving his hands around a lot, hard to tell with a wookiee.
Leia's brows climb her forehead just a fraction and delight sparks in her eyes. "Why
thank you." She evidentally isn't used to greetings like this, if the faint red on
her neck is any indication.
Solo chances a glance as Leia's hand is kissed, and a brow shoots up. He just watches...
You sense Leia has apparently not heard you, distracted by Bandalavar most likely.
Cale frowns to himself, and shakes his head, absently touching the lightsaber hanging from
his belt, whatever his desc says. With a sigh, he leans lightly on the railing, scratching
his cheek. "..."
Chewbacca raises his voice, "RaWWWWRR rawwr!" still in Leia's direction.
"No, thankyou, I didn''t know that woman like you still existed outside of my
dreams." The man takes a look at her hand in his scarred hand, and pulls it abruptly
to his side, leaving her hand alone in the air. "May I buy you a drink, or engage you
in some conversation?"
Solo clears his throat now, trying to attract the attention of the hopelessly enamored
princess...
Leia chuckles softly, replying to Bandalavar, "Your words are flattering, Mr.
Krii'Os. One might think you had been taking lessons from Lando." She is obviously
not offended, but highly amused. Either she hears Han clear his throat, or Chewie's rwar,
for she looks over toward the two questioningly.
Chewbacca stares at the Princess, motioning her over.
Sudden realization crosses Kureals face and he quickly walks over to Solo and says,
"Hey your Han Solo. I'm from Corellia too. I'm a pilot too. Of course your the best,
but I'm pretty good myself. Do you think I could fly with you sometime?"
Bandalavar says, "Lando, miss? I have never met the man." He pulls a chair out
for her to sit in, then notices the wookiee's motions. "I think that the wookiee
wants you. I've learned not to anger wookiees, better to fall from a cliff.""
Chewbacca bares teeth, demonstratively.
Solo looks at Kureal, half nodding as his attention is focused completely on Leia.
"Yeah...sure...whatever." He looks back to Leia, clearing his throat once more,
this time a bit louder...
Leia smiles pleasantly at the gentleman and nods, "A wise man's words. And if you
ever have the opportunity to meet Lando, I suggest you do so. I believe you would get
along famously. Lando Calrissian, presently captain of the Starlit Queen." She half
turns, then, "Would you excuse me? I'm not certain whether it would be worse in this
case to anger Chewbacca or his partner."
Solo quirks both brow, silently mouthing *his partner?* as he watches Leia.
Bandalavar smiles back at the woman, "Of course, maybe another time." He nods
over at the wookiee, and begins to walk towards the entryway.
Chewbacca looms.
Kurael says, "Alright, I'll talk with you about it later. It seems you are busy.
please pardon me." Kurael then turns and walks back over to the window."
Leia bows her head, "I'll look forward to it." And with that, she crosses the
room before either Chewie or Han feel the need to forcibly move her.
Solo glances to Kureal again, nodding absently. "OK...right...soon." He turns
right back to see Leia coming towards them.
Chewbacca laughs, deep throated, at Solo's expression.
Leia looks from Chewie to Han when she reaches them, murmuring, "You needed to speak
with me?"
Solo gives Leia a small smirk. "And here I thought you had an image to keep..."
Cale continues to be a dour, antisocial little Jedi. Besides, he's got a lot on his mind.
For the most part, Sith, and getting his adoptive sister back from them. "..."
Because, hey... It's not like he could have a simple, easily-solved problem, right?
Chewbacca thumbs a finger at Solo, "Raww rrra wwwwr aarrgh."
You paged Leia and Solo (idle 39s) with 'Did he really get hurt?'.
Leia laughs softly at Han and nods, "I do, and it includes meeting all those I can
here on the base." She looks at Chewie, sobering a bit at the memory, "He was in
a bit of a hurry, and had a run-in with some heavily packed boxes, yes."
Bandalavar glances back at the wookiee and the man and the woman, smiles slightly, and
exits
Bandalavar heads through the arched portal.
Bandalavar has left.
Solo quirks a brow. "One hell of a meeting, I'd say..."
Chewbacca snorts. His expression seems to indicate that he believes that Solo can handle a
few boxes given what he's handled before. He spots the jedi being antisocial.
"Rawwwr."
Leia smiles for Han, "You must not've been hurt too badly, Commander. You were rather
reluctant to be seen in the infirmary."
Solo smirks. "I was referring to your *meeting* of new people, Princess."
Chewbacca looks from Solo to Leia, then Leia to Solo. He shifts that gaze back over to
Cale, expectant, seeing that Solo and Leia have words to banter.
Cale blinks once, turning to look over at the vocal wookiee, a curious expression on his
face. What, you think that he'd be getting too close to the vicinity of those two
'talking' if he can help it, even if he were being more sociable? He's brave, and
impulsive, but he's not /that/ dumb. "...?" o.o
Leia shakes her head, "Would you prefer that I were cold to the residents here,
Commander?" She laughs, her voice dropping, but still amused, "Not on a first
meeting. It would be unseemly."
Chewbacca bares his teeth at Cale, similar to the expression he gave Leia. Its likely that
he wants Cale in his general vicinity.
Solo lowers his voice slightly, speaking in fervent hushed tones to Leia...
Cale shrugs a bit, stepping closer. Hesitant? No way! Just... Being politely careful, is
all.
Whatever Han says, it draws a sigh from Leia and her good humor begins to fade. She replies in equally hushed tones.
Chewbacca perhaps glares at Han and Leia, though it might just be an intense stare.
"Rawwwr rawwr." he points at Cale as the jedi approaches.
You paged Leia and Solo (idle 30s) with 'This is Cale.'.
Solo blinks. He mutters to Leia, "... now I'm supposed... I?..."
Solo breaks his conversation with Leia to look at Chewie and Cale. "I know. We've met. On the Falcon."
Chewbacca was mostly stating that fact for Leia's benefit.
Leia isn't quite fast enough to conceal the glare she gives Han, or keep her first thought
from slipping past her lips, "Of all the..." she cuts herself off abruptly and
smooths her expression over. Turning an easy smile on, she glances toward Cale, "It
is a pleasure to meet you," she says, offering her hand to shake.
Chewbacca glances at Cale, "Rawwwrgh." he indicates the Princess.
Solo watches Leia, then looks to Cale as the princess offers her hand. "Better kiss
it, Cale."
Cale briefly looks between the pair, a thoughtful look in his grey eyes, before raising a
brow at Solo, quickly following that up with a frown. Looking to Leia again, he smiles,
taking the offered hand and shaking it, briefly. "...Yeah." Has it been stated
enough times, interactions with people aren't a major skill on his part. "Definitely,
very nice to meet you." And they stuck him in the diplomatic corps. c.c; All because
of those stories about Jedi.
Solo watshes Cale, expectantly, like a teacher watching a pupil at the blackboard...
Leia releases Cale's hand after the shake before he would even have *time* to kiss it. She
nods, "You are a friend of
Luke's, correct?" She takes a moment to look over at Solo, "Commander, please
attempt to be reasonable. Every culture greets people in different ways. Some kiss hands,
others do not. Yours obviously does not. Please understand that makes you no more right or
wrong than Mr. Krii'Os." She speaks without reprimand or slight in her tone, simply a
statement of fact: this is an apple; this is an orange; you can't make hybrid apnges.
Solo looks at Leia. "You didn't have to like it."
"Ah... Yeah," the young man nods, folding his hands behind his back. "He
helped me with some of my training," Cale admits, looking to Solo again briefly,
"and I helped get him out of... A little fix. I'd certainly like to think of he and I
as friends." He frowns lightly, brow furrowing, at Solo's comment. "Um... If you
two need to... Discuss... Something between yourselves, I could just go..." Yeah.
That'd be the safe way out, wouldn't it?
Chewbacca interrupts, and says emphatically, "Raww rirawar awarrgh." He seems to
be indicating Cale again.
You paged Leia and Solo (idle 1m 21s) with 'We have to help him get his sister back.'.
Solo sighs and looks to Chewie. "OK, OK...once the ship is fixed. We'll help find his
sister."
Chewbacca nods, appeased.
Leia frowns, a reply to Han on the tip of her tongue. She bites it off, though, and looks
at Chewie with a concerned frown, "His sister?" Her attention returns to Cale -
likely the safest place for it right now - and she asks, "What has happened to your
sister?"
Cale lets out a long, slow exhalation. "My sister... My adoptive sister,
really..." Heh. This is going to be interesting, if his expression is any indication.
"...Is sensitive to the Force, like myself and Luke. She was... Taken, I suppose, by
a Dark Jedi. She wanted to go with him, because she thought that Luke and I couldn't teach
her what she needed to know... But now that Dark Jedi, Garath... Well, his master took my
sister, Min, away from him, to make his own pupil." Guessing that might have been
hard to follow, he goes for the condensed version: "She's being held captive by a
Dark Lord of the Sith. One very possibly as powerful, or maybe more so, than Darth
Vader." Another fun guy Cale's met.
Chewbacca looks unhappy with this and gives Leia a plaintiff growl.
Leia's brows climb up her forehead slowly as Cale explains, ending in a look of surprise
and worry. "A Dark Lord? Do you know...where she is now?"
Cale shakes his head. "No... The only person that can locate him is Garath. Which means any attempt to rescue Min needs his help... And his condition for helping is that Min be allowed to choose which of us she goes with, Garath or myself."
Solo looks from Leia to Chewie to Cale, then back to Leia. He sighs, seeing that he's been
out-trumped in the concern department by a Vader-ette, so he stays quiet for the time
being.
*Han had to disconnect*
Leia worries her lower lip and her brows crease in a frown, "Do you have any idea
which she would be likely to choose?" She edges to one side slowly, moving in Han's
direction.
Chewbacca glances at Han. He keeps quiet, apparently he intened to have Leia involved in
the situation to help Cale.
Cale shrugs. "She could go either way... For all I know, she's been turned by now,
and will be fighting whoever tries to 'save' her."
Leia sighs and shakes her head, "It doesn't matter anyway. You still have to get her
back. How long has she been gone?"
Chewbacca rumbles, displeased with the thought of Min being turned.
Cale frowns, thoughtfully. "It was a few months ago that she left... During the
diplomatic mission to the Crimson Claw. I didn't get word about her being taken until a
few weeks ago... And when a few of us tried to go join up with
Garath to try and help her, we ended up having to come back before anything could be
done."
Leia nods, and her sidewalking comes to a stop very near to Han. She pulls her composure
back into place, and takes on an air of royalty, one that many are familiar seeing her
with. "Then if they will not help her, we will." There. It's decided. "I'll
see what can be found out about this Dark Lord, and we'll work on getting Garath's
help."
Solo nods in agreement with Leia, whatever his reasons, then moves a bit closer to Leia.
"I'll see if we can get that part shipped in quicker. We'll take the Falcon."
Cale nods, slowly... "All right." Which, in all honesty, is probably smarter
than doing everything Garath's way, but, again... Impulsive teenager we're talking about,
here. "..."
Leia adds, almost as an afterthought, "I'll have the search for Luke stepped up a
notch. He should be invaluable in such a search as this."
Cale nods, again. "I'm sure he'd want to see Min safe, too." Of course, he can
think of at least one other person who could be of that kind of help, but she thinks the
Rebellion are a bunch of terrorists, and is not likely to be called in for
an assist in that case. "..."
Leia smiles, expression reassuring, "We'll find her, and soon. I guarantee it."
Cale nods, once. "Very possibly. What worries me, is will she still be herself when
she's found."
Leia sighs, "After spending so much time with a Dark Lord, I doubt it. But hopefully
the damage will not be irrevokable."
Cale shrugs, lightly. "She's just a little girl, still... She's only twelve, or so.
She shouldn't be going through this." Of course, he's only five years older, but...
After everything he's been through, he feels older still.
Leia smiles sadly, "In this war, we are all being made to grow up before our times.
It can't be avoided, but hopefully it will be over soon."
Cale nods... "..." Yes, his player is at an utter lack for what to pose.
Leia speaks again, "I need to be going if I plan to see the intelligence set in
motion soon. I will speak with you again very soon, Cale." She looks between Chewie
and Han, then, "You two should be on your way to the Falcon, too.
Let's see what we can do about getting the ship back together in the least amount of time possible?" The last is said with a fond smile as she turns to exit.
