Room 313, Sunday evening

[solo_sword]

Waking up with someone she didn't recognize while not knowing her own name or where she was or why she was where she'd been was bad, yes. Finding out this didn't just apply to her and John was bad, too.

But still not knowing and not having any way of finding the information was making Jaina seriously Annoyed. It was like whoever she was didn't own much of anything that hadn't once been a piece of something, and would it be so hard for her to do something like keep a journal?

At the moment, she was still digging through her side of the room, trying to find any tiny scrap of definitive information she could. Okay, she'd been over this before and she knew she wouldn't find anything she hadn't already, but taking things apart and messing up the things she didn't know she'd just cleaned up last week was kind of therapeudic.


[Door's open! And oh look, so is the post! Funny how that happens.]

"All right." Start with the biggest thing first. "You come from another planet. This is Earth, and you come from Coruscant, which I believe is a very long way away. You have a twin brother named Jacen, with whom you have a very close bond, and you are something called a Jedi."

[solo_sword]

Was another planet supposed to be weird to her? She wasn't sure. "Okay," she said slowly. "Jedi? Does that mean I'm... an alien, or something?"

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

"I...don't think so." He frowned. "No. You are human, but you have a Gift. You can move things with your mind, I know that. And Jedi are a force for good in the world, of that I am certain. I think it is," he shrugged helplessly, "a calling of sorts? More than a job, less than a vocation? I'm sorry I don't know more."

[solo_sword]

Jaina blinked at him a few dozen times. "I can move things with my mind?" she asked, looking doubtful.

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

He nodded. "You can. I've never seen it, but I know you wouldn't lie to me."

[solo_sword]

That was a pretty sound vote of confidence. "You realize I'm going to spend the rest of my night seeing if I can move that box from across the room," she said.

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

He smiled. "Just be sure not to give yourself a headache," he warned. "That can be a side effect of straining a Gift, at least in my world."

[solo_sword]

"I didn't find any kind of medicines," Jaina said, frowning. "Maybe it's easy?"

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

He tilted his head, considering her. "You said that you had little success with healing people, unless you were linked with your twin, but nothing to indicate anything else was difficult. I suspect it might be quite easy for you."

[solo_sword]

"I could potentially heal people?" she asked, surprised. "What the hell. You'd think this sort of thing would be self-explanatory."

Karal looked as apologetic as he possibly could, which was very apologetic. "I'm sorry I don't know more about what you are able to do."

[solo_sword]

"I appreciate you telling me as much as you have," Jaina said. "It's a ton more than I knew before."

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

He ducked his head, smiling a little at that. "I can also tell you that you went home to visit your family not too long ago, that you don't have much experience with horses, though mine likes you a lot, and that you are a good person to have as a friend."

[solo_sword]

That got the first smile out of her in a day. She had no idea who he was, but she could see why she apparently hung out with him. "I must talk a lot," she said.

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

"What makes you say that?" he asked, looking surprised.

[solo_sword]

"You know a lot about me," she pointed out.

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

"Not so much," he replied. "But I like to listen, and I remember just about everything."

[solo_sword]

"If I'm not still extremely grateful for that when this wears off, never speak to me again," she said, because otherwise her night would probably end in her accidentally-or-not sending something flying across the room in frustration.

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

He had to laugh. "Very well, but I don't think it will be an issue."

[solo_sword]

"I'm so glad to hear you say that," she admitted, because it wasn't like she knew her personality.

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

"Any way I can help, I'm happy too, even if it's just with reassurance."

[solo_sword]

"I love you, never change," she sighed. "Honestly, I'm feeling a lot better than I probably should."

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

He blushed and shook his head. "Well, you are somewhere safe, you're not the only one it's happened to, and you are not the sort of person to panic easily," he said. "So it makes sense that you would be fairly calm."

[solo_sword]

She nodded, accepting this and deciding he was right. "If this isn't over soon, though? I'm going to make it over. I'm just not sure how yet."

[vkandis-son.livejournal.com]

"Jaina?" he said, very seriously. "If this isn't over soon, I'll help you."
