   “  — i’m raven, ”  it’s unusual to not get into some sort of conflict immediately over a priceless gem and be strung into filing through his collection for possibly more to connect with her magick. he wouldn’t have been no older than she was, it makes sense for the sentiment he’s given. internally, she’s utterly grateful that he complied and let her have her mother’s ring. memories were hung around the piece, she would’ve hated to find it being sold to someone else,  “  okay, fine, i’ll… look through what you have. it’s not guaranteed that i’m taking everything,  ”  if she’s being honest, raven wouldn’t know exactly what to look for in terms of other precious items. just the one little trinket around her middle finger was enough to keep her sane. she detects some senses that comes through the force that powers right to lukas, strong enough to rip through a whole city if he truly tried. it was something to bare in mind if she crosses a line that cannot be redeemed. she inches for the opening he came through, letting the pirate take the lead whenever he wanted. 

    “  maybe it’s a happy accident that we’re working together, you never know,  ”  or perhaps, she just prefers finn’s insight more than anyone else’s. raven has gotten a little bit used to his routine and the way he responds to her with the utmost respect. it’s a lovely change for once, being far away from home felt more productive than sitting around, waiting for some kind of cavalry to arrive. the nightsister takes his hand gingerly, mostly by digits to lift herself up from the bed onto her own two feet and granting him a soft smile,  “  what’s in this mess hall, anyway?  ”  raven asks, glancing away from him as she followed finn out of the bunker.

    it was quite spontaneous  -   and all it took was her abilities to track a person down to find him.    but she wasn’t here to flaunt just how capable she was,   she was only here to see lukas.   she didn’t know what drove her to hop in her own private transport  other than absolute love.     -    qi’ra had docked onto his ship,  with little surprise from his crew members as she exited the transport.   a few hellos as she made her way to his quarters,   she was lucky to be in love with someone whose crew didn’t see her as an enemy.   they were always quite welcoming,  even if it was out of fear of their job security.  

    hands pull at the leather gloves that encased her fingers,   pulling them off as she steps into his quarters as if it were her own.   qi’ra grips the gloves in the palm of her hand and lets a smirk spread across her lips.   arms cross over her chest,   and her ponytail swings as she cocks her head to the side.       “    oh?    ”      she quirks her brow,     “    then punish me.    ”      the smirk grows,   and qi’ra remains stationary as she watches him stroll over to her.   she clearly caught him at the perfect time.     

“ i can’t help but feel like that is exactly what you wanted to happen, “ lukas rolls lightly as he comes right up to the love of his life. he stands at her side, instead of immediately in front of her. before he lays a finger on her, his hand is reaching out to place his hand on the lockpad for the door into his quarters. she had welcomed herself in here like she owned the place. this was to prevent anyone else on his crew from doing the same. a devious looking smirk crept onto the pirate’s face and it’s obvious that he’s more than glad to see qi’ra. practically ecstatic. 

   “  not really – but i trust you,  ”  she answers, knowing there wasn’t much of a choice left. the odds being against them both were weighing heavier on her shoulders than she imagined. with digits clasping a little bit tighter to his hand for security. in a short period of time, she never knew how quickly she was able to trust finn, without the use of searching through the force to see if he was able to carry his word honestly,  “  just tell me when and don’t let go of my hand,  ”  raven can hear her heart pounding in her ears, anxiety rising up in speed. her focus was clear and stable regardless. she can feel the presence of a darker force heading towards their path without further warning. the two were extremely wanted and while her kind was nearly gone, she couldn’t let finn be captured on her behalf.

   “ if the tables were turned, you’d do the same, wouldn’t you?  ”  regardless of prophecy, she cannot imagine anyone being so trustworthy of a stranger. some kind of security needed to be placed. the cut stung a little deeper than she thought it would but with just a brush of her own hands, the pain would fade and the cut would be sewn with a scab. she heals his cut with a single digit gently gliding over, forming a scab there also. the spell remains for as long as he’s on dathomir,  “  how much time do we have in order for your plans to go in effect?  ”  gesturing him to follow her as she curves around, raven needed an idea of just how much he plans to learn under an unknown amount of time,  “  certain practices take much more than days to accomplish, regardless of how the user excels,  ”  she comments, leading up to a more sacred and secluded area of this rugged compound.

“Well, I’m faster so that’s a given.” She commented wryly. Rey had the advantage of being smaller and leaner compared to Finn and Poe so she had the speed advantage over their strength, not that she wasn’t also strong. “Optimism is a good colour on you. But if there’s some secret Jedi out there, I don’t understand why the Force wouldn’t have told me of them.” She commented. 

Rey smiled when he joked, her hand coming to cup his cheeks. “I’d definitely like that. But is there any chance we can go somewhere a little more comfortable?” She asked curiously, looking down at the knee she’d uncomfortably contorted to sit in his lap. “My leg’s going to go dead in a minute.” She teased.

        She couldn’t help but let her fingers fall on his cheek as he pushed the hair out of his face. He was incredibly handsome, especially when he smiled. She laughed now for the first time that they met, it really was a huge mess. But that chaotic first meeting eventually led them to here. “I’m excited too. I wish we could go right now.” 

“Yeah so I gave it to you because I like it when you slip in— in the middle of the night and wrap your arms around me.” She bit down on her lower lip, cheeks flushing. “And other things you do in the middle of the night.  That’s fun too.”

As he was walking around her room, she couldn’t help but clear her throat when he bent over and moved a few things.  “Do you know just how sexy you are Dameron.  I mean, you’re just fucking sexy and it’s just—” She sighed, reaching her hand out as her flight suit came flying through the air in one direction and with her other hand, she pulled her lightsaber towards her, missing his head. “are you sure we need to go to work? I’m hardly wearing anything and I’ve got the force, you can be naked quite fast if I wanted you too.”

poe is quiet for a second when he hears her suggestion. eyes dart to his watch and he observes the time to see if it was even possible for them to squeeze in a quickie with jaina. a sigh leaves his lips and he starts to move closer to jaina with a smirk on his face. it isn’t long before he moves closer to jaina and his right hand is moving to tangle in her long dark locks, pulling her head back to look up at him.

        There was a moment where she would have given anything to be out of this cold. A part of her wished she left him on that planet, then she wouldn’t be here freezing to death. But nonetheless, she pushed forward. 

        It was pretty unbelievable, that this entire structure was hidden under the snow of some far off-planet. Even with just the luminosity from his lightsaber Ave was impressed by the base. “This really is hidden.” She commented after pulling down the scarf from her face. It was still cold but at least the wind wasn’t blowing against their faces anymore. “When was the last time someone was here?” She asked as she walked forward. 

“ last time someone was here was about have a year ago. i was here trying to find some old jedi lore. my search brought me here. “ it was what lead him here and into the darkness that was left here by an old republic jedi who had fallen into the pit of the dark side. but the force led him here so he could purify the darkness and make this place another beacon of the light side of the force. 

    “  food does sound really good right now,  ”  she pushes herself up from laying down, contemplating on actually falling back asleep. for now, she was doing fine, nothing that makes her question her own abilities or her stamina. this was the result of not practicing as much as she should. she can hear her mother badgering her about it in her ears. a gentle twist in her lips, tilting her head to the side as she pulls up to bring her feet near the floor,  “  i want you to stay, if you can… there’s no one i trust right now other than you,  ”  he certainly ignited certain feelings in the blackbird that cannot be fully explained. eyes picked up to flicker between, the speed of her heart picking up bit by bit just by looking to finn for a few moments.

   violets fall to the piece in his palm, the heaviest weight lifted from her heart as she reaches for the small ring to carefully take from his hand. nothing but sad memories of her mother, mostly. all of which were ripped apart at the seams. she swallows and observes the jewelry in her own possession, looking to see if anything was damaged or any gems were missing. eyes pick up to the other with pursed lips, shaking her head briefly upon his offer,  “  no, i – i couldn’t… this is the only thing that really matters to me, ”  raven responds, back down to the ring before slipping it on. the bright amethyst that circles the main gem glows, restoring energy once its owner was found. she takes pride in knowing the bits and pieces of her family. had she lost the ring completely, she would’ve never been fully content,  “  thank you. is there any way i can repay you? ”  as sweet as any fruit, she was soft in the moments that would call her weak. but for once, she doesn’t regret showing a little side of her own kindness.

   warmth showers her entire being with an unfamiliar vibe, questioning everything she knew about galen marek for a good moment. as the kiss was gentle, ahsoka couldn’t fathom a thought, her mind went white and paused the sounds and auras around her. something was definitely off course but not so much that it disturbs her. mostly, to ask where his head was going before she knew what came next. to say the least, she was surprised by the flattery. a bit frozen for the first couple of moments until quietly giving in and sinking into this strange development. as lips part, she doesn’t pull away just yet, just carefully opening her eyes in search of his to look back into,  “  galen, i—? i don’t know what to say…  ”  her hand comes up to take hold of his forearm, letting it slide up to his wrist.
