Re: Part 4 - Regrouping
"Oh my aren't you an inquisitive bunch! Let's see now, who was first with what? Oh yes! Why?" Tfalta waved her hands as if trying to fend of all the questions ganging up on her.
"Can I answer now? Alrightie! Why is of course a huge question but I will make a leap of conclusion and make the bold deduction that you mean 'Why are you hiding in our vehicle?' and nothing else, such as 'Why does the sun rise' or any other general life brooding and usually bigger 'Why'." The words poured out with both ease and speed, the hands doing as much talking as the mouth. Catching her breath inserted a pause, however brief.
"Oh yes, why. Right. Because it was evidently from out of town and ready to leave! An obvious place to hide away!" She nodded her head eagerly, then stopped and began to shake it instead. "But, oh no no, no, I did not draw attention to you at all. I hid, obviously in the locker too, but what I mean is I concealed myself from her. Oh she is a piece of work that one! Ghea Nimadda, right hand of the Imperial governor and all that. Jedi? Me? Well yes and no and perhaps more than most today but not yet at the same level as those who were before, but, hmm, yes, I suppose so."
Another brief pause and then a smile and step towards Shard.
"You are familiar with things then! Yes, one of those, as you say. Are you a Jedi yourself? But no, perhaps not? But there ..something..." She finally began to slow down and stared at Shard with great interest, starting to half reaching out towards her.
