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.

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.
