Who? Jaina & Gabriel
What? The good kind of kidnappery.
Where? Probably multiple locations?
When? After all this commdrama~
Rating? Not terrifying.
Jaina was starting to suspect this entire reality was trying to make her go as insane as she’d been in the future. All the kidnappings and attacks and mood and behavior-altering creatures and things aside, just the emotional whiplash alone was going to do her in, sooner or later. Right now it was almost hard to believe that just an hour or so ago she’d been laughing, amusing herself with that therapist and with Gabriel’s jokes, on the boards. And then Jacen had started... doing whatever it was he thought he was doing, turning everything around and making it hurt, and now she just... didn’t want to deal with any of it.
Her apartment had started to feel too small, too closed-in, which shouldn’t make have made any sense because she was used to being on ships far smaller than the living space she had here - except it was different, in space, where she could look out and see the stars and the planets, at least know they were still there. It didn’t usually bother her so much, but when she was upset, when she wanted to get away, it felt like she was trapped, and that ...wasn’t good, right now. She’d tamped down on her Force awareness as much as she could - and made a mental note to ask Allana, later, to show her how to close off all the way, because right now if she could, that’s exactly what she’d be doing - and went for a walk.
Part of the whole reason she was so upset was that she knew she was letting all of this get to her. She knew better - she was a Jedi Knight, she knew how to control her emotions better than this. But here, with everything going on, it seemed like maybe she didn’t, after all. Either that, or something about this place made it harder.
She’d wandered out, away from most of the lights of the city, eyes on the sky, on the stars. They weren’t the same as they were back home - not on any planet she’d been on, any chart she’d seen, none of them lined up like she remembered, she couldn't pick out a single world in the black - but tonight that didn’t really matter. She didn’t need a reminder of home, just something soothing. Something that made her feel less like everything was wrong.
When she looked back down, away from the sky to check the street signs, to make sure she wasn’t going to get herself lost, her surroundings were completely unfamiliar. She looked back the way she’d come - the street she’d just been walking down was completely gone. This wasn’t just a case of wandering off too far by accident, that was for sure.
