Natalia almost smiled when Doc made his comment about the Jedi being cultist. It wasn't an entirely inaccurate assessment in her opinion. "Actually they are and I've sent the proper complaint forms to your datapad if you want to report there behavior." She said evenly. "I ordered while you were gone but heres a menu for you. Pick whatever you want off the right side, unless you feel like gambling." She said then shrugged, keeping half her attention on the Jedi. She wouldn't put it past one of them to have heard her complaint comment and get huffy about it.

Had indeed heard the complaint comment. However she would not get huffy about it. Merely a glance in her direction, and that was all she'd do. What need was there to cause a ruckus over something so small as a letter? Besides, she would probably just make Sephiroths break even less peaceful if she had started something. Still, it wasn't like that one letter was going to bring the temple crashing to the ground of coruscant, so for all she cared he could send it and 100 others as well. She turned her gaze away from the girl at the table, then leant back against the bar, still bearing a smile. "So would it make the drinks less enjoyable if I asked how my training is to start, Master?"

Sephiroth turned to Fina, still holding his drink, now almost empty. He drank the last little bit and placed it on the counter next to the other empty glasses. The bartender walked passes them, grabbing the empty glasses and taking them away. He then came back with clean, empty glass, placing on the counter, followed by the curved bottle of Vasairian Brandy. Sephiroth nodded to him before picking up them both up and pouring himself a fresh glass.
Well, I know you have recieved the majority of your training from your late, former Master. From what I can tell, you are confident with your abilities. What is left of your training is learning how and when to use your abilities.
He placed the bottle back on the counter and raised his freshly poured drink to his lips, taking a quick sip. He lowered the glass again and looked to Fina once more
Take what just happened. Knowing when to reveal our actual occupation is often key, especially in now. There are still many around with resentment towards the Jedi and the Republic.

Fina gave a nod. "I see. My former master had taught me how the abilities are done... but I have yet to get much experience using them... The most experience I'd say I have, is blocking the un-lethal blasts of a little trainer bot, if you can call that experience, and trying to fly away from some, i'm assuming, untrained dark jedi in space."

Bob looked quizzically at natalia, " a letter? why would I complain? it's within his rights not to answer my questions, or at least I assume it is.....there hasn't been a major change to the republic's laws in the past 15 or so years, has there? anyway, he seemed like a nice enough chap, and at the very least, he would make a skilled politician. now then, the right side..." After taking a brief look at the right side of the menu, Bob says, "that doesn't sound kosher......" before turning to look from the left, " um....where do I place my order?" ordering food....such a luxury I have never known....and this is standard treatment at one of these places? ahh...most probably don't even think twice...

"The server will take your order when he gets over here. After that he'll relay that to the cook and then bring it back once its ready." Natalia said, automatically elaborating for Doc's benefit but ignoring his first question. If he didn't see anything wrong with the Jedi's conduct then that was his business. "He's probably used to being laughed at..." She thought a little upset by the idea. She wasn't a prize winner when it came to tact or social grace but she didn't laugh at anyone. When the server finally brought over her meal she was rather disturbed to note that the slight feeling she thought of as distress had increased for no discernable reason.

when the server brought the food, Bob placed his order and looked around taking in the hustle and bustle with the innocent wonderment of a child. so many sentient beings in one place....its breathtaking that so many with such a varying degree of viewpoints could co-exist peacefully to such a large degree.....Uncle Hack did tell me that it was a sight to behold, and that to see it was the only way to understand....boy did he have a penchant for understatement. oh hey, my food. nodding politely to the server, Bob said, " thank you" as he took his plate and took his first, tentative bite....then his eyes began to water, and a single word escaped his lips, " heavenly"

Snapping out of it, Bob looks quizzically at natalia, " spicy? as in too spicy? no, no....this is some of the best food I've ever tasted! and if this is what is considered normal, why, something called delicacy may well put me into a stupor." with a laugh, bob finishes his meal, savoring each bite.

Natalia blinked twice, the meal had been standard though it was certainly better then the frozen meals she generally ate. If his reaction this strong she wondered what he would think of a good restaurants food, let alone delicacies. She finished eating, barely registering the taste of her own food. She had grown up on better and responded with equal amount of enthusiasm to it. Food was merely an energy source to her, flavor and texture didn't matter so long as it didn't physically burn, freeze or poison her. "Alright, we should be able to pick up the parts for your ship now...Doc, let me make something clear right now. You're going to have to wait in the speeder while I go in." She said flatly as she handed the server her credit chip. Doc had done fairly well in the clothing store but dealing with Janshika would require a certain degree of finesses and having him freak out and run around the parts depot would certainly weaken her bargaining position. The parts weren't illegal but they weren't easy to get a hold of and did require certain licenses to supply them so the Rodian would defiantly try to squeeze her for more then normal.

Nodding absently, Bob thought to himself if I stay in the speeder, I can't go in, unless I drive it through the wall! of course! it's so simple......wait....I dont think the guy will like his wall being ruined though....hmm.... " if I promise not to touch anything, may I please come in? I mean....I won't do anything without your permission, okay? please? I've been watching those instructionals, so at the least I could learn how the parts are applied in everyday transactions....c'mon...."

Natalia wasn't used to being disagreed with in a rational manner and had to pause to think for a moment. People tended to make irrational demands and ignore any logical explanation she might give in response. Having someone merely make a request was new to her. Doc had demonstrated the ability to fallow directions and listened to her so it wasn't entirely implausible that he might be alright in the depot. "Even if he dose screw up my father is paying the bill for this..." Natalia revised her decision then took several minutes to contemplate the fact that she had. It was an unusual turn of events. "Alright but I'm holding you to your promise. No touching anything but you can look." She said, looking him directly in the eye in order to gauge his response. "The depot is basically a glorified warehouse full of ship parts for everything from an escape pod up to a light frigate so there's not a lot else to see aside from the service droids and the manager. There probably won't even be other customers since most people file there orders electronically and have them shipped instead of coming down to browse." She said with a shrug, she preferred to directly inspect things before buying them. It saved a lot of hassle with wrong shipments and defective or flawed parts.

As the transport took Avor to the hospital, the medics druging him to keep him down. The driver seemed to take slowlest and longest path as other vehicles zipped above and below, one of the troopers sent as a guard used the time to radio Sephiroth "Sir, we have disabled and captured the intruder. We are enroute to the hospital, you can interrogate the prisoner there before we lock him away."
Minutes later the transport landed at the hospital, unloading its cargo. The gaurds stayed right near the streacher as Avor was taken in for treatment, they blasters consantly aimed at his head.

As Natalia said yes, Bob's eyes lit up with uninhibited glee. with a few quick, and repeated 'thank you's Bob began to smile. not just any smile, but a radiant smile, one that would make even a depressed suicidal think twice about life ((kind of like setting an example of how much happiness someone can achieve.)) As he smiled, Bob simply stated, " lead the way....I can't wait to see all these parts...." ooooo, lets see....running checklist of what I need....a new power core, because I need to replace that gutted and rebuilt power droid....some power conduits, a few computer systems and proggramming software....some paint, for a new paintjob, the one I made with that sloppy joe blood is starting to wear....a communications array, or at least a small dish.....an Ion cannon, assuming I can get one and still have enough power to use it. oh, right, and a database of all current laws, regulations, and any information pertinent to my aunt and uncles. and perhaps a current map of the galaxy, maybe with one I could figure out where we crashed oh so long ago....
