Coruscant- Wednesday Fandom time

[solo_sword]

It seemed like Jaina had gotten her wish when she'd said she wanted things to slow down a little, because they really had. It was especially good when she had someone visiting, because she didn't really want to have to tell Eric "Have to go hunt down bad guys, no idea when I'll be back, don't eat anybody please."

Tonight she'd found a little outdoor restaurant that she hadn't even been to before, thinking that skipping dinner and just finding an excuse to sit out with a drink and watch the different species pass by was a good way to go.

"Someday you're going to get tired of spotting different aliens," she said. Even if she doubted that was true.

[For that guy.]

"Maybe, but not for a while," Eric said, glancing around with barely controlled glee. "Look at that one! It has two heads!"

[solo_sword]

"Just wait till you see one with more than two arms," Jaina said sagely.

[texted3times]

"Oooooooh," Eric said, craning his neck. "Where?"

[solo_sword]

"I don't see one yet," she clarified. "I'm just saying they exist."

[texted3times]

Eric, stop almost bouncing in your seat. You're a thousand years old. It's undignified.

"Is that one usually purple," he asked, nodding his head, "or is it a makeup thing?"

[solo_sword]

"Most of the time it's their real skin color," she said, and spotted the one he was talking about. "It's real."

[texted3times]

"Do you think I'd look good purple?"

No, Eric.

[solo_sword]

"I think you could look good wearing purple?" she tried.

[texted3times]

"Oh, I do," Eric assured her, grinning, "but that's a no to body paint, huh."

[solo_sword]

"Something tells me if you started with body paint, it'd be all you ended up wearing," she pointed out. Which was not a bad picture.

[texted3times]

"Would I do that?" asked the man who owned a pink spandex bodysuit.

[solo_sword]

"You so would," she replied immediately.

[texted3times]

"I'm feeling very slandered," Eric made up.

[solo_sword]

"It's not slander if it's true. I've heard about the pink spandex."

Never tell her anything you don't want coming back up at some point.

[texted3times]

Eric sighed theatrically (especially since he didn't breathe). "I look amazing in pink spandex, just so you know."

[solo_sword]

"Prove it," Jaina challenged.

[texted3times]

"I didn't pack my spandex," Eric said. "Maybe next time."

[solo_sword]

"I'll remember this for the next time I'm in Fandom." Maybe.

[texted3times]

"Pack some of your own and we can go out and fight crime together," Eric urged. "I've heard that's kind of a thing to do in Fandom, though I haven't seen any of the crime..."

[solo_sword]

"Not that I own pink spandex, but I think the thing to do is stand on rooftops and see if anyone's doing anything bad." That's what she assumed everyone on the roofs was doing, anyway.

[texted3times]

"Or cry about their lovelives, but I think that's limited to the dorms," Eric said.

He liked the radio. It made it easy to keep tabs on people and then mock them.

[solo_sword]

"Not strictly," said she who'd had at least one lovelife related bitchfit in the town gym.

[texted3times]

His eyebrow cocked up. "Really. What did I miss?"

[solo_sword]

"I took my relationship problems all over in high school," she told him. "I think it felt more dramatic to stomp into a room and complain."

She'd never do that now, nooooo.

[texted3times]

"You, stomp?" Eric replied. "I'm shocked!"

Not really, no.
