Who: Jacen and Mara
What: Trying to get Jacen to ~feel things. Without turning him into Caedus.
When: The day after this conversation. Let's pretend Anne doesn't suck in being slow, yes?
Where: Where Jacen is staying
Warnings: Uh TBA but it will possibly get heated. Will update as necessary.
Mara was deeply concerned about her nephew. What worried her further was that his presence was so...cold in the Force. There was no emotion in it whatsoever. And that actually unnerved Mara. Not much could unnerve her like that, but this did. Tahiri's words to her had been troubling, giving her affirmation on her fears of where Jacen was heading. This emotionless man was not something she could live with. In a way, Mara would rather face Caedus because he at least would be feeling something then. She wasn't scared of Jacen in this state, but she was scared of what he would become if nothing was done to attempt to rectify the situation. She needed to get him to feel the pain of having lost his wife and daughter to the Seal. The only trick was to get him to feel that pain without him instantly going Caedus.
She had not told anyone outside of Tahiri what she was doing. But even Tahiri hadn't gotten details beyond making Jacen feel. Mara was prepared to end up fighting Jacen if she had to. If it meant getting him to feel again and open himself back up to his emotions, she would do anything. Of course the fact that he'd killed her once still remained on her mind, but in a straight up fight, she knew she could match him. Or at least she'd been able to right before she'd died. There was no doubt he'd learned new tricks and Force abilities in the time that had elapsed after her death. But Mara was a fighter and she wasn't about to simply let her nephew wallow in this cold, emotionless state. Despite everything that she'd gone through with Jacen, despite having all the reason in the world to hate him and not care about him, she did still care. They were family, and family meant something to Mara. Even if part of her would always hate him for what he'd done to her, but she was able to set such feelings aside when the situation called for it.
So she headed to where Jacen was staying, her lightsaber and shoto concealed where the common person could not see them. While it had been reflex to take them knowing that this world was never completely safe, she was also prepared to use them if needed. She really hoped she didn't have to be moved to action to get through to Jacen. Mara's first plan was just to talk to him, try to get him to express himself, let himself feel. But if it came to it, she would give him the very real knock upside the head and make him face his emotions. Her Force presence was not concealed, which would of course allow Jacen to sense her coming. When she got to the door, she knocked and waited for him to answer the door.
