Who: Rey
Broadcast: Fleetwide (except for private parts).
Action: For Hotel Corona.
When: Sunday.

[Rey is flushed with delight, laughing as she narrowly avoids being hit in her Zero-G Kart.]

More people need to try these out! [They might be tricky to operate, but she likes the challenge.] Just try to hit me! You won't come close.

[Her grin isn't cocky, exactly, but it is as close as she can manage. She wants to be a convincing target!]

Is anyone else working at the hotel? I've picked up a job with security and the hours aren't bad.

[Private to Hux.]

Have you checked out the hotel?

[/]

[Private to Fingon.]

I think you would really love the Nebula Viewing. The stars are important to your people, aren't they? I would like to take you up if you're interested?

{Instead of the expected adult Elf, have a child of about 7, smooshing his face up close with wide eyes!}

You would? Really?!

{Private}

[leftonjakku]

[What a sweet surprise! Rey is shocked until she notices the similarities. This is indeed Fingon! Only...smaller. Much smaller! And adorable.]

Yes! I would! But you should check with your family first, right?

{Private}

[valiantfire]

{The Elfling pulls back, blinking bright eyes before smiling and nodding.}

Could my grandfather come? He should see them too! {Problem solved!}

{Private}

[leftonjakku]

He is welcome! [She can't help beaming at him.] We can all see the stars together - and don't worry, I'm an excellent pilot.

{Private}

[valiantfire]

{Totally not bouncing. Nope.} I'll go tell him! {Fingon knows his grandfather won't say no to seeing stars!}

Ah...Pilot? What's that?

{Private}

[leftonjakku]

Let me know what he says. [Rey thinks for a moment how best to put it.] You know how a captain navigates a ship or a boat? That's what a pilot does for space ships.

[therewillbeorder]

I've checked out a bit of it. Why do you ask?

{Private}

[valiantfire]

I will! {Fingon vanishes for a short time then comes back with a bright smile and definite happy glow.} Grandfather will come with us! {This is clearly the best news of all!

He looks at her with awe in wide eyes.} Grandfather has told me about ships!

{Private}

[leftonjakku]

Great! [She mirrors his enthusiasm, eyes warm.] I think you'll like this ship. I'll let you ride up front with me, alright?

private;

[leftonjakku]

Just curious. There is plenty to see and do.

private;

[therewillbeorder]

Like? It's best if you just come out and tell me what you are attempting to communicate.

private;

[leftonjakku]

[You are miserable and could use some fun.] Do you ever laugh? Or do anything without a specific purpose?

private;

[therewillbeorder]

That's a ridiculous question.

I assume you're getting to some kind of point. I do everything with a specific purpose.

[You're speaking to the guy who schedules naptime, Rey.]

private;

[leftonjakku]

That's a problem. I was going to challenge you to a laser-tag battle. [No, she's serious.]

private;

[therewillbeorder]

This isn't a game I'm familiar with.

And besides, I haven't forgotten you have an unfair advantage in any type of battle scenario.

private;

[leftonjakku]

I wouldn't use the Force. [That would be cheating.] This is just for fun.

You take laser guns and try to hit your opponent.

private;

[therewillbeorder]

So it's a simulated target practice.

I've done that before, it's a part of standard Imperial and First Order training for every officer.

[Except he's out of practice since he lived on the bridge of a star destroyer for so long.]

private;

[leftonjakku]

I was going to call it more of a game, but that isn't wrong.

[She grimaces.] We could both use practice, surely?

private;

[therewillbeorder]

A valid point. I would be concerned with you becoming proficient with a blaster but I suppose that's the least of my worries.

[Given she could use the Force and could already trash Kylo Ren.]

When should we do this?

private - a bit later~

[bythewaves]

Ah, hello? My grandfather said that you wish to take Fingon out - I was wondering if you will need any help with him as he is... rather young, at the moment.

private;

[leftonjakku]

[Her lips twitch helplessly.] I could become proficient without you, you know. [But she extended the invitation for a reason!]

My next shift ends early tonight?

private - a bit later~

[leftonjakku]

He is adorable. [She has a soft spot for kids and Fingon is such a bright little Elf.] You're welcome to join us, though. I think he said your grandfather would be going too?

private;

[therewillbeorder]

Ah yes, with the Force guiding you and all that.

Very well. Message me when you get off.

private;

[leftonjakku]

Blasters aren't much use against the Force. [If Ren's abilities are anything to go by. She hasn't tried that trick herself.]

Will do.

[Later in the evening, another message will arrive - this time Rey is tugging on a vest and smirking.]

Can you find your way?

private;

[therewillbeorder]

In most situations, correct.

[He cut the feed until she contacted him later.]

Yes, it's not difficult to find. I'll be there shortly.
