there's something in the look you give...

[sensitively]

Characters: Rey and you!
Date: July 24 - 31
Location: all over Keeliai!
Situation: Rey has turned Dark, for the Misspell Redux. all shall look upon her and despair.
Warnings/Rating: Might be some dark (h e h) themes, including violence and/or drug use. Will update warnings as necessary.



The tea she samples at the Fire Sector, in a little shop along the main marketplace, turns out to have peculiar results.

Initially Rey feels nothing out of the ordinary; she's a little more perfunctory than usual in her speech, though, and she doesn't speak much to Poe upon heading home that evening. But on the next day when she rises, there is something definitively different. Where she's felt only serenity before in her heart, there is only chaos and passion now. She can't shake the feeling that something is amiss, that she's meant for more, that there are wrongs she must right and ignoring them is impossible.

This peace she's been told of, through her brief learnings of the Jedi code, is a lie.

She's on edge, her irritation and despair becoming nearly unmanageable, and without another word to her housemate she stalks off to presumably let off some steam and exorcise some of the fury that's building up inside her.


Jade Dojo, Wood Sector: Rey will be fighting tooth-and-nail with a ferocity unseen before, against any opponent who dares take up the challenge with her. She will use her quarterstaff to fight if necessary, but she will prefer her lightsaber.


Drug Trafficking, Fire Sector: The Snakes' presence is everywhere here, and with it comes some shady business deals. As she roams the sector's walkways and streets in her restlessness, there are whispers around her of the usefulness and potency of the substance called Dust.

The Snakes are a convincing and corrupting influence.

Meet the Street Urchin

[gotabadfeelingaboutthis]

Han is a little surprised when he comes across her on the fire sector streets. He may be young, but he knows a thing or two about shady deals. Not drugs, that much, not yet...he can't even fly a ship yet anyway, although he'd definitely try if he saw one. So far, this place doesn't seem to have any, though.

He watches her from the shadows, wondering if he can slip in and grab something from her pocket. Or maybe one of the customers. It's risky. He knows drug dealers and shady guys usually carry blasters or some sort of weapon, and they probably wouldn't think twice about letting him have it. But he's good, he learned from the best. All he needs is the right time and distraction...

The members of the Snakes assure Rey that their product is the best she'll find; guaranteed to offer a mind-altering experience. She has to admit the connections to Malicant's cult have left her curious.

But suddenly she feels a small hand reaching into one of the pockets of her trousers, fumbling for something, and she snatches it by the wrist and pulls the boy aside. " - What do you think you're doing?" When she sees just how young he is, her fury is magnified and she frowns sternly. "A youngling like yourself shouldn't be hanging around, here."

Han sighed. He had been having decent luck earlier in the day, but one just had to go bad. She was young herself, but still more of a grown up, and if she was dealing down here, she couldn't be that much of a goody-goody.

"Youngling, right. I've been on my own as long as I can remember. I got some friends, but I'm just as good at handling myself, too. Well, usually. I like tough places. It's a bigger challenge and better pickins' More fun."

He may not have been a child, but a teenager was still younger than she was. At his insistence he'd been on his own since his earliest memory, she paused instead of gripping his arm more roughly. She knew the feeling of having been alone all too well.

"Fun, is that right?" she asked, with less of a sneer than before. "What sort of things have you managed to steal from people?" Now she was kind of curious.

[gotabadfeelingaboutthis]

(rats now I can't edit the icon back there. Ugh.)

"Yeah, it's kind of a thrill. Gettin' the stuff and gettin' away without gettin' caught." he replied. "I don't know, different stuff. Money's best, or stuff to sell. Sometimes there's some good eats too." he replied.

She didn't seem too upset, which surprised him a little. Actually, she was more curious at the moment than anything. He was curious about that in turn.

sorry about your icon!!! :c

Rey wasn't one to judge someone who was down on their luck enough to have to steal for food - she would have done that herself many times on Jakku, as starving as she'd been on Plutt's measly rations that he doled out with such stinginess.

Even without the heightened sense of anger and irritation she felt, she would never begrudge such an act.

"You must be fairly good at it, then, to be able to feed yourself regularly by doing that." She cocked her head. "What's your name?"
