Kushibah @Vulpas | Na'tala nodded as the still-helmeted [?] man caught up with her, her lekku bobbing with the movement. "It is peaceful isn't it? I have only been on a handful of worlds but this is the first that I can relax on. It feels kinda strange." At the mention of holo-photography Na'tala stopped walking and gracefully spun in place, taking in the sights around the pair of off-worlders. "I bet there are people who would kill to have views like this."
~~ Qwella's House ~~ A female came indeed out and looked perplexed, blinking a multitude of times. She just looked at NexNip for about a minute before basically running as fast as she could down the tree, bouncing off the trunk and jump-hugging him down to the ground, causing the two of them to roll on the ground for a while, before she eventually was on top with her front-claws on NexNip's shoulders, pinning him down and staring deep into his eyes. "It's not nice to let a woman wait so long!" She complained but smiled brightly, nuzzling him. "I missed you, you douche! Just you know, running off and all that! But.... I am glad you are back... Finally." She hid her now-built-up tears by pressing her face into his robes, softly crying which NexNip mostly could judge by her sniffs. ~~ NexNip's Home ~~ "Always. But first.... Since everyone else ran off we have dinner to prepare. You look like a family man, being like a big brother to Nexi and all that, so I assume you can cook like a family man, yes?" Sapina smiled and started to walk, on her fours like a proper Kushiban, to the kitchen. "We will make Nexi's favorite dish, well... More my favorite dish that he better will still enjoy after all these years! A good, hearty stew made out of all the rustic, strong, nutritional vegetables our little world has to offer!" Spoiler: OOC: My Star Wars lore is bad when it comes to food, anyone mind if I you know, use the regular stuff such as Potatoes and all that, or are there SW equivalents I should be rather using? ~~ Waterfall ~~ @Avenging-Angel | @Vulpas
@Uriel1339 Nex playfully laughed as Qwella scolded him for his sudden departure. "Well I couldn't exactly tell you ahead of time I was leaving, it wasn't exactly my plan at all." But when she started crying into his robes he felt a horrible twinge of guilt rise up. He hugged her into his chest as tears of his own started to well up in his eyes. This poor woman he left behind for years. And yet here she was. She was here for him. They were together once again. "The thought of being able to see you again...is what gave me the strength I needed to return home." he muttered as he held her close to him, "not a day went by that I haven't thought of you. And you were always there in my dreams...I've wanted to come home for the longest time" He chuckled a bit and looked toward her. "I'm not the only one who made it back you know...I...I found him, Qwella...I found my father, and I brought him back home alive and well...I'm sorry it took so long, but I wasn't about to come home empty handed" his ears perked up, he just remembered. He gently lifted Qwella's head back up so he could look her in the eyes. They were the same pair of beautiful eyes he always lost himself in every time he glanced at them. Now he was able to look upon them yet again. And this time he wouldn't be so rudely interrupted by waking up from this dream. "I have been waiting a long time to give you this" he stated as he presented her the flower from one year ago, "I'm glad I finally got the chance." He placed the flower in her hair and looked upon her affectionately, "The Ever Bloom flower is considered one of the most beautiful flowers in the Galaxy. You only need a few drops of water a day and it will never wilt away...and yet, it's beauty pales before your own..."
Cyrus couldn't help but laugh as he followed Sapina into the kitchen. "Of course I can cook, someone had to make sure mother had enough help after all. Fortunately stews are my favorite...shall I start peeling potatoes while you get the carrots?"
Kushibah - Waterfall @Vulpas | Stepping into the clearing Na'tala gazed at the waterfall and the small lake it had carved out, a wide smile on her face. Starting to remove her bodyglove the Twi'lek paused and glanced over her shoulder at Kai. "You don't mind if I take a swim do you?"
Kushibah - NexNip's family home Somewhat awkwardly staring at the leaving group members - but most of all, NexNip, at least for as long as she could see him, which admittedly wasn't a lot - Zuri the commando stood there, not really sure what to do. Well, besides being stunned at the sheer amount of eyes fixed on them. It was unsettling. She felt vulnerable - as if, in any moment, a hurricane of angry fangs, claws, and fur could descend upon them. At least two of these had magic powers. It was not a thought the Chiss would like to continue. But she didn't want to interrupt the reunion either, so she stood there, almost ridiculously stiff (were it not for the fact that she was Zuri), and... watched quietly. Watched the Jedi immediately get embraced by the Kushiban folks. It really was NexNip's species.
~~ Qwella's House ~~ "I.... You... Uhm..." She rubbed her eyes dry on his robes and out of reflex also used a sleeve as a tissue. "Thank you... For coming back..." She squeezed him tightly as the flower was placed in her hair, basically trying to crush him with her physical manifestation of affection. She was just so happy to be back with NexNip and that he was alright, all these days, weeks, months and even years of fear of what became of him! But now, now she saw that he became a much bigger person, a real man, not the boy he was when he had left. ~~ Kitchen ~~ "Surely." She grabbed her lightsaber which casually laid in one of the kitchen drawers, however it was hidden under a double floor. "If you can cut a vegetable with your instrument, you can do anything." Sapina ignited her bright orange blade, it was calibrated to be far shorter than a regular lightsaber, most likely to fit her form and combat style. Using her force she levitated a couple of carrots that already were laying around - just above her and started to slice them apart in furiously quick, but accurate movements. After five seconds the three carrots were all sliced thinly with obviously slight burn marks from the intense heat of the lightsaber, nonetheless the cuts were even and just the right amount of thickness. "Now you." She levitated the potatoes for Cyrus.
@Uriel1339 "I'm...sorry...you had to wait all of this time for me." he said slightly melancholy, "I left you, and it took me so long to come back..." He placed a hand on the side of her face and gently stroked it as he looked into her eyes. The girl he left behind grew up to be a beautiful woman. Was he suppose to leave her behind again. Have her wait again for him to return to her. She waited for him, when he would have wished to see her move on with her life. If she found someone else, if all of this time she was happy with another. It would have helped with how horrible he felt right now, knowing that she was happy. Putting this poor woman through something like this -even unknowingly- was to much to bare. She shouldn't have needed to suffer with the worry. "You..." he paused and choked on his words a bit before sighing and shaking his head "how did I ever get lucky enough, to have someone as lovely as you in my life?" He reached into his robes pulled out his lightsaber, making sure the safety was on, and that it was set to a non lethal setting just in case. He looked at her with half closed eyes and a warm smile. "Qwella..." he said, "this weapon. I have been told is my life. This weapon is my life. It is yours. My heart beats for you Qwella. You are my strength. You are my world. You are what makes my life worth living." He couldn't leave her again. It's been long enough already. How much longer did she need to wait for him. Having to leave her again, this time voluntarily, to fight a war he and his people had no part in. How could he do that to her. And yet. There was so much darkness in the Galaxy. So much evil. So much hate. He would have wanted nothing more then to have this moment last forever. But the thought of having the darkness that purveyed throughout the Galaxy to find it's way here scared him greatly. He wasn't going to let that happen either. Nothing was going to bring to harm to her, he'd ensure that with his dying breath. And that just made his internal struggle even harder for him. "...which is why it hurts me to know you worried about me for so long. You...you deserve someone better then me. Someone who can actually stay by your side, make you happy. I care about you too kriffin much to see you hurting like this. Especially because of me." he turned his head away from her slightly, and looked off into nowhere. "There is a lot of bad in this Galaxy, Qwella. Out there, off of our home. There are monstrous and cruel people. There is a lot of darkness and hatred out there....but there is good. There is good as well. Good, kindhearted, wonderful people who just want to live happy lives. There are people out there who are beacons of light shining through the shadow. You. Qwella. You are such a beacon. Such a beautiful and innocent soul. I can't let any of that horror out there get here...get to you." His mind was split apart between what he knew he wanted to do, and what he knew he needed to do. And he knew that both options would be hard on him to decide between. Such a decision he still hasn't quite made up in his mind. And seeing Qwella again only made the choice even harder to go through.
-Waterfall "Me I don't mind if you take a swim, would be great to add another beautiful being to the the scene, that and would be great for a picture here." Kai said with with optimism in his voice. "That is if you want me to take a picture of you with the waterfall."
Kushibah - Waterfall @Vulpas | As she continued shrugging out of her bodyglove Na'tala laughed at Kai's suggestion, hopping towards the lakeside a she began struggling to remove herself from the bodyglove's lower half. "Of course you can take pictures, just as long as I get copies."
