Hoth: Blood and Ice

[Darth Irrej]

"Because I want to," he said, throwing back his cloak.

[Layne Hoshin]

"I don't know what I was expecting," she said with another sigh.

She then pointed an accusing finger at him.

"...there had better not be any more noodle or noodle-like scenes in your future books, do you understand?"

[Darth Irrej]

"But the scene is quite popular," he responded. "But if you insist, alas you restrict my creative juices when they burn hottest."

[Layne Hoshin]

"...You're lucky I'm still a little drunk," she said, then started walking past him...

...up onto the ramp that led into his ship.

[Darth Irrej]

"Madame, I must decline, it is uncouth to take advantage of a women in such a state. I will gladly escort you to your domicile and see you safely to your place of rest," he said proudly.

[Layne Hoshin]

"...are you kidding me?"

She seemed confused, then annoyed.

"...I'm not really *that* drunk, it's just easier to say it like..."

Ugh. And here she was being nice to him and/or herself.

"...Look, if you don't take advantage now, it's not going to happen. Okay?"

[Darth Irrej]

"Madam, I must stand by convictions, my honor is at stake," he replied.

[Layne Hoshin]

"Uugh, fine, I give up," she said, stopping halfway up the ramp and just... sitting down.

[Darth Irrej]

Irrej takes a seat and said, "If you are tired we have extra blankets."

[Layne Hoshin]

She rolled her eyes.

"You're really not a Darth, are you? Darths don't care about honor... or extra blankets."

[Darth Irrej]

"I am Darth Irrej, not all Sith care about misery and fear, some deem themselves above such things and are still dark lords," he said proudly.

[Layne Hoshin]

"Really?" She sounded skeptical.

"Alright. Move that crate over there with the Force, then."

[Darth Irrej]

"Really?" She sounded skeptical.

"Alright. Move that crate over there with the Force, then."

“You would have a Dark Lord of the Sith perform mere parlor tricks for your amusement, madam you may be my unrequited paramour, but I have the pride of a lineage of powerful Sith. My ancestors would weep and mourn that I have become nothing more than a flamboyant trickster… a ridiculous scallywag… a… an incredulous prestidigitator!”

He gesticulated dramatically and said, “I refuse such charlatan tricks, and take grave insult and umbrage at the mere suggestion of my status as fallacy! I expect an apology to be forthcoming with haste..”

[Layne Hoshin]

She chuckled at that response; as it seemed to confirm her suspicions.

"Sure, sorry. You know, I also have the lineage of powerful Sith. My ancestors were pretty angry that their line had become nothing more than slaves, I guess."

Layne reached out with the force and the small crate began to float toward them. There probably wasn't anything of interest in the crate, alas, but so what, she sat it down beside her anyway.

Force Move: 2eF 2 Dark Side


"I don't think they'd mind me performing a trick or two to show my power, though... I kind of miss them. I don't really know how to form meaningful connections with people, you know. Family makes it easy. The connection's there by default."

Ooc: don't know if I actually take conflict for that due to Layne's unusual darksider status?

[Darth Irrej]

“I do not perform mere parlor tricks, I am a dark lord of the Sith,” he responded proudly.

OOC: if she is trying to redeem herself then yes, she will suffer 2 conflict.

[Layne Hoshin]

"It's fine if you can't," she said, sighing, "I just thought you might wanted to just be honest with me, instead of clinging to this persona of yours."

[2 conflict taken]

[Darth Irrej]

"It's fine if you can't," she said, sighing, "I just thought you might wanted to just be honest with me, instead of clinging to this persona of yours."

[2 conflict taken]

Irrej said, “You besmirch mine honor as a Sith, that will not stand.”

He channeled his anger into arcs of lightning destroying the box, it had been some time since he had channeled the Force. It felt reassuring.

“You have value to me, dear Jedi, but never besmirch the Honor of a Sith.”

OOC: Lightning to the box.

Irrej Force Things: 4eF 4 Dark Side

[Layne Hoshin]

She couldn't hide her surprise at that, eyes going wide at the sudden lightning and the revelation that no, he could actually do force stuff. Dark side force stuff, even.

"What in the...!?"

Of course, Skivulker had been able to do the same... but still! This was Jerri...

"...Does *everyone* know how to do that besides me?!"

That wasn't really the question; that just popped into her head in the moment.
