"Ma'am, the fellows and I want to thank you for hiring us on." says a blue skinned male pantoran. "Onderon is our home and despite Requiem base being gone, we will still fight the Empire, but this time via more covert means."

"You're welcome! But if you bring any Imperial heat onto my business, you'll only wish I'd fed you to a Sarlacc! We cannot afford to get caught supporting the Rebellion," Kari says heatedly. "Am I making myself crystal clear, people?"
"Loud and clear, Ma'am!" the assembled people reply in chorus, making Kari grin.

The male pantoran speaks again. "I think it wise that we only send info to Rebel cells on other worlds via legal shipments to such worlds. Old fashion way. Pen and paper if need be."

"Good idea, but be very discrete, and do some research on how things of this nature were done in the past, like during the wars 4,000 years ago, before you do it for real," Kari says, thinking aloud.

"Of course." responds the pantoran.

"Now let's get to work," Kari says briskly, dismissing her new employees to their tasks. "Keith! We got any cargoes lined up?"
OOC: Marcus, do we want to continue through Shadows of the Empire or skip to the time of Return of the Jedi, with a brief stop at the former to allow Keith to propose to Kari, after Keith answers Kari?

OOC: We will have Episode 3 be during Shadows of the Empire.

OOC: Okay. With that decided, we need to wrap this episode up with Keith answering Kari's question.

"It would appear that we have a shipment going to Naboo." says Keith. "A fresh batch of Astromech droids."

"Oh, right, the Industrial Automation contract," Kari says, snapping her fingers in emphasis. "I'd almost completely forgotten about that!"

"Oh, that reminds me. the contractor sent you a gift as well." says Keith. "One of the new R6 units. They are still in the development stage as a model line. So you get a prototype. I present R6-B24"
'Jade' beeps and curses in droid-speak upon seeing the new astromech.

"Jade, if you had a mouth, there'd be a bar of soap sticking out of it for that language!" Kari scolds her R2.
OOC: We don't know precisely when the R6 line came out, only that it was shortly after Endor. Perhaps this could be a preproduction unit, built to make sure they'd ironed out all the potential kinks in the droid's body and basic personality before they fully unveil the design to the public?

OOC: That is my plan. Like I said, prototype.
IC: Jade slinks off.

Kari then impulsively kisses Keith on the lips by way of thanks, causing him to blush intensely.

R6-B24 beeps as if chuckling and then goes to antagonize Jade.

Kari notices and groans, "Those two will be the death of me." She quickly nicknames the R6 'Hawkbat'.

"You mean the death of both of US..." says Keith.

"Point," Kari acknowledges before going to make sure that the two astromechs learn to get along without scrapping each other.
OOC: Hawkbat and Jade most assuredly will get along, eventually.

OOC: Episode 3 will start then.
