Trade?

[ luna looks, of course, entirely befuddled. is it possible that this girl thinks she's a vendor of some sort? shaking her head, the's quick to dispel the idea! ]

No, no, I am not selling it. It's a spare!

[ luna is very patient, and more than happy to keep holding the hat out until rey finally decides that she is ready to accept it. she's very much the kill you with kindness sort, and was more than ready to stand here smiling and holding this hat all night if she needed to. ]

I am very sure!

[ with a gleeful smile, she pops the thing right onto rey's head for her, tugging at the yarn tentacles until it's perfectly straight. ]

There is a vendor 'round the corner selling heaps of them. They're silly, but there is also something very charming about them..

Incredible. How funny, how far a bit of kindness can take you sometimes.

[ Speaking of. ]

You're telling me a true story, too? All that for a tube of lipstick...wow.

[ He's still grinning; it's peculiar that he can really, picture this happening to her, and she seems so cavalier about it. Either she's seen a lot, or so very little, and both of those possibilities are so tragic and still. Not unlike his own circumstances. ]

I feel bad for the poor thing now, it doesn't have you anymore.

[Well, Star Wars physics would never lie to me, so seems settled.

"I've got your back," she says, and there's a blink-and-you'll-miss it little quick of his brows in response, a curious cant of his head back her way. Like that's more of an actual promise than he'd expected to hear from her. (No offense intended—for all she reminds him of Beau she doesn't know him from anyone, and he isn't used to being offered trust or kindness by rote.) But he's not arguing, all circumstances considered. A little bemused, though not unappreciative—
]

...Thank you.

[Huh. The little off-beats passes, though, as quickly as it happens. Bigger things to deal with, y'know. So—cool. Lets do this. He steps as close to the Force-bubble she's maintaining as he dares to be sure he's in range. Plants his feet and hefts his blade in his hand but raises a hand in the direction of the offending vines, instead. His tone regains its brusque edge.]

Alright, lets light 'er up.

[The spell manifests in a sharp crackle of electricity at his temples, ozone buzzing around him before gathering at his fingers in a shock of blue energy, arcing its way over the shield and into the vine in a flash, like a thunderbolt. But rather than flickering out, the arc sustains there like a jacob's ladder—one end in his fist and one striking at the vine—like he's holding it steady. And he can't keep it up indefinitely, but he doesn't have to. Doesn't take much, after the initial strike causes the vines to smoke and steam, for the plants to start to smolder.]

[The fleshy bits of the vine smoke and smolder...and soon enough they split, and steam, and char. Catch aflame. The movement of the vine itself gets weaker and sluggish as it burns, lashing out less violently, throwing less goopy sap their way as the moisture in it turns to steam and the white of it turns black. He lowers his hand as the spell runs out, and the electric crackle of energy fizzles around him.

He rocks back on his heels as it becomes clear the vines are burning, slowing, out of range. The buildings around here aren't made of wood—mostly metal, and stone, and something he can't identify but he'll assume won't catch enough to set the block aflame. So, he looks back toward Rey, and gives her a pleased cock of his head and his brows that edges on rakish, matches her satisfied grin with one of his own.

Not too bad a job, actually. That went a lot better than anticipated. So, easily enough, when she asks—
]

Kind of a, uh. Fairly recent development.

[Relatively, anyway. It's been a number of months, but magic is still kind of a new thing for him, in his life. Not unlike that bubble trick of hers, apparently. Assuming it's still up, he'll reach experimentally toward a cleaner part of the Force-shield to try and tap at it with a knuckle. As he does—]

Quite the impressive new trick of your own.

[Reminds him of Caleb's Shield spell, if a little more versatile. Or the Tiny Hut he makes for them to sleep under, if a lot faster to throw up around them. But she doesn't much strike him as a wizard.]

[ Hey, at least she's putting in an effort. Noctis doesn't think he even deserves that much, for knocking her into those plants to start with. That's not why he didn't introduce himself, though. He's just a thoughtless idiot. Which he realizes as she introduces herself. ]

Noctis.

[ He answers, and really... that's a great introduction back, right there. But what else is he supposed to say. Nice to meet you? He pushed her into a poisonous plant. Not exactly a nice meeting. Where are you from? Another star, probably, and someplace he's never heard of. Nice weather? Yeah, right. ]

...Damn, these things are everywhere.

[ Whining about the vines. That's good conversation, right? At least they're coming up on the shops fast. ]

[Kerra keeps her posture relaxed, her hands held up in a passive gesture. She's not as worried about the staff, given that she can reach for her lightsaber in the Force in a heartbeat, but she is worried about the girl's attitude. She does not move back, she doesn't display any fear, or any other emotion for that matter.

She plants her feet, closes her eyes, bows her head, and continues in a placid tone:]


I want to know if I'm the only person on this Force-forsaken rock besides a renegade Chiss that knows what a lightsaber is.

[Okay. She can't keep a bit of a flippant edge out of her voice. That's not possible, even if there is the very real threat of violence from this girl. She resolves to not even defend herself unless it's absolutely necessary, if it'll get this one to calm down some.]

I can feel your presence in the Force, and I was hoping to find another Jedi.

[Kerra doesn't move. She continues that placid way of holding herself, arms up, eyes down, the picture of someone unthreatened and unassuming at the same time. The answer she gets isn't a shock, but there's a deep current of paranoia and fear running through this girl. Had she been separated in Sith Space as well? Or was she like Zohvin, trapped in a different time stream? Too many questions, not enough easy answers. So...she gives the simple one.]

Kerra Holt, Jedi Knight, Protector of the Grumani Sector.

[And, hoping to quell any doubts about her identity, she reached into her pocket with the Force and drew out a golden brooch with the Jedi's insignia on it. It floated up, stopping just outside of arm's reach of Rey, and tilted to show the wing and star sigil.]

What's your name?

[ With a bit of a sight, he takes her hand and pushes himself up onto his feet. At least she seems pretty nice — he wouldn't be taking this so well if she was teasing him right now, even if he might deserve it. ]

You don't...trust them? [ Prompto glances over in the same direction as Rey, his brow creasing. ] I mean...it does seem like they're keeping something from us, doesn't it?

[ It doesn't sit well with him, but...maybe they have their reasons. He doesn't want to jump to conclusions, but he does want to know what's going on. ]
