WHO: Leia Organa & Galen Marek
WHAT: Space Mall
WHERE: Through the doors.
WHEN: Sometime during doors plot.

Leia had managed a second full moon without harming anyone, dealing with it slightly differently this time around, and still keeping it to herself, to all except Remus, who had been kind enough to let her get it off her chest, and approach him for help. It’d made her a little more reclusive, for how dangerous this creature was - even though she still went about her day, in mostly a regular way. She just found things to keep busy with, she’d been through the doors, alone and unannounced more than regular, recently. Helping to keep the town in stock of warm clothing and winter weather supplies. As for Galen, she wasn’t entirely certain he noticed, or perhaps he did? Leia wasn’t entirely certain how she’d go about talking about any of it, she wasn’t even certain she would find a way; but it was likely better that way, at least until she had matters better under control.

But, given it wasn’t so long ago they’d decided to venture through the doors together more often, Leia hadn’t want to turn down the idea posed, for one she wouldn’t have an explanation ready either? Which would likely only put things into question. The Princess certainly doubted it’d go a smoothly as their previous trip, but she wasn’t quite guarded either. Perhaps it’d be just fine? Perhaps they’d make it more about scavenging than leisure, all the same, given they didn’t know what they’d encounter, they’d both come along with supplies, just in case.

The door brought them through to a grand sprawling and extravagant space, it didn’t take long to assess, with some examination that it was an indoor marketplace on a huge scale. Like the malls she’d encountered more than once or gathering missions, one of the bigger differences was, the glass ceiling above showed the vast galaxy outside; nothing immediately familiar, but breathtaking all the same. The streamlined, smooth design of everything that made the space seem nearly endless, the metallic look rather similar to Empire technology - but it was clear that it wasn’t quite immediately - no insignia, no Aurebesh and, importantly, the lack of any military trappings or Stormtrooper patrols.

And there it was. Their whole trip coming full circle in the direction they were going. They both had things to search for, and things they wanted to find. While mentioning the bird of his, Galen gave a sideways glance to his princess. It was a complicated relationship with the pink bird, but the main being one of those weird transposed memories as a child when he was in child form. It was a weird feeling, but ultimately he was fond of it. As annoying it might have been.

"Well, the bird can figure it's own way out of the house." Starkiller scoffed softly barely acknowledging his feels on the bird.

"Lets focus on the now and the gifts we're looking for." Galen offered with a small smile. Ultimately the trip wasn't a loss. Rocky at a point, but surely it would only strengthen them in the later. After all, they were now meeting in a number of days to exchange gifts and eat together. "Well, I'm sure with what I think I might know, and the help of you, I'll pick out the right thing for her."

Listening more to Leia he nodded. Galen remembered Nyx, especially fondly during that said time as a child. Truly, he was a nauseatingly good man, and Leia wanted to do something nice for the man. Fine. Galen would also help with him. "We have a lot to do, and not a lot of time. Let's get to it." With a nudge Starkiller took a couple more steps to quicken his pace. "Plus we should also eat. I'm starving."

Leia gave a small snort, the disdain with which Galen spoke of the flamingo would always be there, but she too had been there to meet Frank as a kid, and they had both been incredibly excited that he’d owned such a pet. She had decided that since then, the amount of loathing he had for the bird, had steadily decreased. At least, she wasn’t aware of the last time it’d been murdered.

So it appeared they were well and truly on track once more, purpose, and a sense of happiness between then, had returned too. “Mm-. It’s important that we focus.” Leia said a little pointedly, with a slight smile on her lips, this coming from the man, that had made a valiant effort to keep her from leaving that changing room, only moments ago. It amused her. “I’m sure you will, we’ve got so much to choose from- you just tell me where you want to look.”

As almost the entire town was aware of, Nyx was nauseatingly good, and also persistent, in an annoyingly helpful way. “Right.” Leia agreed with a short nod. “We are indeed limited, so we’ll have to be efficient.” And, there was one other thing that Galen then noted, which happened to be very important to a successful and productive shopping adventure; fuel. “So how about we eat first- and then we work.” She decided, tugging him to where she had thought the delicious cooking smells rose from, her nose, it seemed a little bit sharper these days.
