[After the mystery and isolation of their last destination, the Marsiva seems determined to head to brighter, busier territory. After a long journey through remote, nebula-painted space, speeding along at a brisk pace for the Host ship, the Marsiva brings her Fleet to a sudden and prominent point of traffic.

It seems that the Fleet has happened upon some sort of vacation destination! Maybe Atroma thinks that the passengers deserve some rest and relaxation... or just wants to distract them with something huge and shiny.

Welcome to Hotel Corona! Feel free to enjoy yourselves and enjoy the sites! If a hotel resort isn't your thing, you can head on over to the nearby planet and explore it's icy wonders.

Depends. A lot of the time, just... people. Politicians. CEOs.

[revengeofthemordsith]

I'm afraid I do not know what those are.

[outstandingbalance]

There are some people who'd say you aren't missing much.

[revengeofthemordsith]

[ She scoffs lightly. ]

I'm wary of people like that. Is it ever enough to take public opinion?

[outstandingbalance]

You should be wary of people like that. Nothing is ever enough.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Being wary of all people usually pays off.

[outstandingbalance]

I don't know if it pays off, but it's usually not the wrong move.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Most would say it's not the right one either.

[ Kahlan and Richard would certainly disagree with Cara. ]

[outstandingbalance]

It comes at a cost.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Everything costs. You could draft up a list of things like that.

[outstandingbalance]

It's true. Just a matter of deciding if it's worth it for you in the end.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Have you decided?

[outstandingbalance]

I know what I'm trying now.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Which is?

[outstandingbalance]

I'd have a hard time not being at least a little wary. I try not to let it get out of hand.

[revengeofthemordsith]

[ She nods, looking frustrated herself. ]

This was easier when Richard was around. While he cares too much, his instincts for people are better than mine.

[outstandingbalance]

You don't trust yours?

[revengeofthemordsith]

Not in a place like this.

[outstandingbalance]

You don't seem to be doing bad so far.

[revengeofthemordsith]

It is difficult, but I'm hardly hopeless.

[outstandingbalance]

I didn't say you were.

[revengeofthemordsith]

[ Her lips curve despite herself. ]

I learned a little along the way.

[outstandingbalance]

Naturally. [They had to be adaptable. No way around that.]

Can I ask you a question?

[revengeofthemordsith]

You may.

[outstandingbalance]

If I were to ask to kiss you, would you take that the wrong way?

[Meaning, did she understand that Natasha wasn't interested in any romantic entanglements. She's just looking for a particular kind of companionship now.

No complications if Cara said no.]
