DAY 347 : Haunted Hotel Mingle

[You have a lot of baggage for your stay. Not the kind you stuff free robes and toiletries into. No, the kind of baggage that helps drive the sort of scenarios you experience. Your fears and your hang ups. Or maybe not everything is about you after all and you have a perfectly random, horrific time. Either way, the adventure starts now. Ring the bell for service.]

	You saw other people? [If it's something terrible, they're in trouble. The darkness behind them is still creeping after them, growing almost tangible. Are those whispers coming from it?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ a nod. leia hesitates, then adds: ] I can feel them, too. [ more and more, she's understanding luke's initial hesitance with the force. even if the jedi were more accepted (and understood, to the degree that what knowledge of them survived the purges allowed them to be) amongst the alliance. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What do you mean, "feel them"? [Curious, not unaccepting. Kitty is basically his favorite person and she can go through walls.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ instantly, she regrets saying anything of the sort. leia's been spoiled by reid's lack of questions, of his silent acceptance of whatever the hell she defines herself as now. ] I'm— I'm Force-sensitive. [ ah, but he might not know what that means... ] Clairvoyant, so to speak. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Nathan is constitutionally incapable of not asking questions about everything. Force, though... that sounds familiar. He'll think of it.] So... psychic, kind of? [He'd think that was neat under different circumstances and if being psychic didn't seem like a good way to make sure she stays far, far away from him forever.] Can you read my mind? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Psychic, among other things.

[ part of her wishes she had a better definition for what force-users were supposed to be, but the other part is glad she remains blissfully unaware of most of it. that part of herself would rather continue to fly blind than be consciously aware of what she can do — of the things he had been capable of. ]

No, I can't read your mind. I can sense emotions, sometimes; but I can't hear your thoughts, if that's what you're afraid of.

[He doesn't answer right away, somewhat relieved. Not very—there's still so much to be afraid of right now—but a little. Just because he makes little effort to keep his problems secret doesn't mean that he wants to broadcast them unintentionally.]

There was another lady here who could do that. Counselor Troi? She was part alien. [Nathan liked her. She really wanted to help him.]

[ the name doesn't ring any bells. whoever this troi is, she was long gone from the prison by the time leia arrived. ]

I'm human, [ as far as she knows. it's probably for the best that she doesn't know that anakin skywalker was supposedly willed into existence by the force itself. ] but my father was a Jedi Knight.

[ acknowledging that he was, once upon a time, a jedi knight is perhaps the nicest thing she's ever said about her biological father since learning his identity. ]

	I've heard that before. Jedi. [And if he didn't live inside of his head so much, he would have the cultural awareness to instantly know where it's from.] Is that why you don't seem scared by any of this? Because your dad was a knight? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	forceful 2015-12-06 05:47 am UTC (link)
	[ she could laugh at that. bitterly. not afraid because of who her father was... on the contrary, she has every reason to be afraid, especially of darkness. ] Where I come from, we were at war. I've seen, and been through, things that are a lot worse than this. [ and knows how to keep a cool head in these situations. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	questionofwhen 2015-12-06 06:00 am UTC (link)
	Sorry. [It's the only response that comes mind, even if it's stupid.] There's nothing like this where I'm from. Not really. Stuff like this only happens in my head there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ his head is a whirlwind of conflicting emotions; a storm she knows better than to venture too close to. even if she has something of the same abilities as troi did, she doubts she'd be able to help him in the same way. leia was far from being qualified to offer psychological support of any kind to someone. she was a mess herself. she just hid it a lot better than most. ]

Trust me; you're better off imagining it.

	Yeah, you'd think so. [The problem with things inside of your head is that they can't be escaped. Here, they can try to run from the darkness. There's nowhere to run when it's your thoughts that are trying to swallow you up, and when your thoughts can turn into actions that hurt people...] ...Do you think we can die here? [A bit of a non sequitur.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ somewhere, the ghost of her father is probably shaking his head. if there were a poster boy for being unable to escape the things inside your head, he'd be it. ]

What? No. [ leia stops walking. there's some light from a lone, dim light bulb in the hall. enough that she can see him when she turns around. ] Of course not. I think the goal here is to scare us, not to kill us.

	[He lets go of her sleeve when she stops and turns, more startled than he has any reason to be.] Why? [Why does she think that? Why are the wardens sadists? He doesn't specify.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
