Session 8: Corellia Marketplace

After consulting a directory, Hailey takes Tali to a descent but not overpriced clothing store. "My cousin Ami and I would always go shopping for each other with Sasha, and she had the final say as to weather something looked good on us or not. Sasha never let us buy the same outfits for each other, though, so we never had much chance to pull of a proper twin act."

I straighten and grin wryly, and "innocently" ponder aloud.
Hmm... matching clothes, a pair long braids, a gallon of synth-skin, and a lot of green make-up... maybe we could do the twin act!

"You must be joking when have you known law enforcement pay full price for anything."
Boris says.
"You are lucky that you get 350 credits for it."

Hailey giggles and pulls out a simple, dark blue dress that would be significantly more suitable for a dinner than her cargo pants, vest, and T shirt. "How does this look? Hmmm... Do you think it looks better on you?"

Binary...

That's just enough to pay for my NEWish ion blaster they ruined. There is still the damage to my chronometer, not to mention certain other parts...

I look at the dresses in the window and try to imagine them on myself. I pull a nearby crate over and stand on it. Then stand on my tip toes, still looking in the window.

"Here Be happy I am able to give you that much."
Boris gives that 350 Credits.

Money:

Jowmum accepts the "guards'" apology money.

Grumpy Binary

I suppose a personal apology is also not going to happen.

Window shopping, If I line my reflection up just right, its like I'm wearing the dress. Though I s'pose I could just go in and try it on.
I get off my soapbox and hesitate before walking in the store. I feel the dress Hailey is holding.
I guess it is my size, and its not childishly frilly...Do you think that color will look good on me?

"I think so, unless you really don't like it." Hailey starts looking for another dress she likes. "Sasha always said that if you didn't love it, it would never look good on you."

"Be more cheerful this is not even in the top ten misadventures we have had."
Boris laughs at Jowmums grumpiness
"If your grumpy all the time your circuits my stick that way."

It's not the dress, the dress is...pretty's not the right word, hmm, classy? no, elegant? I didn't have anyone to show me the girly stuff, I'm just not sure what to look for.
I grab the dress and hold it up.
Maybe if I just try it on...can we grab a couple more?

*low power mode*

"Welll.... now that the Droid has been pacified. I should probably us the comms to tell my family that the Consortium has shown up."
Boris uses the comm to call professor Miles.
"Hey professor. I think that I found some more sand from that moon what was it called? The one with all the funny people and the fuel depot. Any way it made my droid sick. Just thought should let you know."
Boris then closes the comm and checks on the Wookie.

It could be worse, it could be worse, they might not have released me. Sold me off to some no good scrap dealer who already has enough droids. I'll bet their money was stolen anyway, probably took it from someone else they apprehended. No, scratch that, I'll bet it was the previous shift trying to pin something on them and this shift just needed to get rid of evidence. I just want to get off this planet and never see it again, well, at least not until those goons are gone from that place.

I wonder, what if I go about using the plastic bag to commandeer at least their digital stolen goods?

An exterior light comes on, simulating an evil smile.

While Tali changes, Hailey finds three more dresses that should be able to fit either of them (the red and pink one might need a few alterations). She throws a gold dress over the door of Tali's changing room. "Here, try this when you're done. I have a feeling it'll bring out your eyes." It is mostly gold with some yellow-orange and beige highlights. The 'skirt' is actually a separate piece, like female dress pants that have been made to look like a skirt. "Alright, hows does that blue one look on you?"

"I am getting a very bad feeling right now. No matter what I said to Talik my jinx rarely leaves that little collateral damage. It is a distraction. Yah I noticed this time."
Boris does a little happy dance just outside the wookie's room.
"But that means..."
He messages Jowmum
*"Jowmum when you feel up to it help me look up this Hutt we are going to be working for we need to what we can about him and this potential job."

"Ok," Hailey sounds disappointed, but takes the gold dress away with her. She reappears almost five minutes later with something a little more Talik's style. The main color is a warm, pleasing shade of tan. There are straight, simple slits up the sleeves and pant legs, showing a much earthier color underneath. There are many faint details including embroidery around the neck and cuffs that resemble flowers, some of which remind Tali of the flowers at home. "Look, you can wear your boots with it, it has pockets, and I even found a Twi'lek head dress that goes perfectly with it. It's like this was made for you!"

Hailey moves into the changing room one door down from Tali, carrying a couple of shirts and a pair of cargo pants. "Would you pass me that blue dress when you're done with it?"

*Message Boris*

Sure, I'll see what I can do. Besides, it will give me some practice with the bag before using it for some more serious business.

The Rylian flowers bring a tear to my eye.
I love it! I haven't looked at these flowers since I last saw my mom.
Maybe I can find her, now that I have a ship and a crew, though we need to settle our own needs before persuing personal wants.
I don't even need to try this one, but I want to!

Jowmum rolls over to the laptop and tells it to lookup the hut in question. He then accesses his database and sees what he can find from there.

Boris uses the comms to access the libraries records of the Hutts and their transactions.
