"Not that it's any of your business, Daxx, but, yes, I went shopping," Kari says. "It saves me the trouble of doing laundry every other day."
Daxx nods, remembering how often Kari had had to do her laundry aboard the Jabiimi Redemption.

"Yeah, I hear you. Sadly all I can truly afford is to keep wearing this old outfit until our so called 'Rebels' pay us once the shipment is complete." responds Daxx.

"No wonder you stink," Kari says, scrunching her nose cutely. "Use some of the money we got from selling that liquor and get yourself some more clothes, after you get that set cleaned and take a shower."

"You sound like my mother. Stars bless her soul." responds Daxx. "Might be time to dispose of this outfit."

"At least you remember your mother," Kari says before she walks up the ramp and into the ship to see to her purchases.

Daxx walks down the boarding ramp and goes to purchase several new outfits.

OOC: I would also imagine Daxx is wondering what Kari meant with what she said in my last post.
IC: Jade looks from the retreating figure of Daxx to the entry into the ship where Kari had vanished from sight. She whistles mournfully before making her decision and entering the ship to see how Kari was doing, figuring she could always shock the idiot male later if she needed to.

Daxx takes a locket on a necklace out from around his neck and opens it. A miniature hologram of his mother Amanda flickers to life. Amanda had been killed during the first year of the Clone Wars when a rather vicious dark sider (Ventress) commandeered her transport for a getaway craft. Amanda's body had been recovered floating in the void of space. Daxx falls to his knees and starts to cry.
"Why couldn't I have been there to protect you, Mom?" Daxx questions to himself.

Meanwhile, Kari is dealing with putting away her purchases when Jade rolls into her cabin. "Jade?" Kari asks the droid. "What are you doing here?"

Jade begins to beep and tweet out a sentence.

"Checking on me, huh?" Kari asks the droid with a fond pat on the dome. "Thanks."

Jade beeps an affirmative.

Eventually Daxx returns with his new gear and heads to his cabin to put it away.
OOC: No, there will NOT be a romance between Kari and Daxx.

OOC: I didn't even plan it. Plus, Daxx is gay.
IC: Daxx finally finishes shopping and returns to the docking bay. He just realizes now that his comlink was still turned on from earlier in the day and Kari most likely heard him crying about his mother's death during the war.

Kari didn't hear him, having turned her comlink off while aboard the ship. She emerges from her cabin when he comes on board and sees that he's not looking good. "You alright?" she asks.
OOC: Out to Lunch.

"Just remembering the war..." begins Daxx. "My mother was killed by a Separatist during the first year of the conflict. She... was the only one who truly accepted me for who I am... what I am. My father disowned me and divorced my mom when I was booted from the Republic Naval Academy for my sexuality."

"I'm... sorry to hear that," Kari says tentatively, knowing that this is probably a very sore subject for Daxx.

"After being booted from the Naval Academy, I decided to go with my second best skill and became a doctor." says Daxx.

"And then the Empire happened," Kari says simply, "and your career plans were flushed down the refresher along with the basic rights that the Republic, from my reading of the history books, guaranteed."

"Yes. I would have been imprisoned either way, now that I think of it." says Daxx.
