Kylo left the Night buzzard almost immediately. He ran off into a direction without making any attempts to wait for you, so you stayed back with Ap'lek and Kuruk. Where was he going? Just leaving you like that...did he feel bad for having slept on your lap? No, that was unlikely...Kylo always knew what he wanted, even if his demands were a bit childish occasionally.

Even though the sand was horribly scratchy and all you wanted to do was change into something more comfortable, there was still a more pressing matter at hand. You turned around and walked over towards Ap'lek.

"I am sorry.", you started and scratched your head, "How is your head?"

"Don't be. It hurts like a bitch but it is better now. I did not expect that to happen."

"Me neither...", you wiped over your arm to remove a bit of the dust and sand that was sticking to the outside of the armour. It was so dry, how the fuck did it stay?

"Hey! Don't fucking do that on MY ship! Get off! No sand in here!", Kuruk shoved Ap'lek and you out and got one of the stormtroopers to fetch some janitors. He was very protective of the Night Buzzard. You had heard the others complain about it, but so far you had not seen it. It was entertaining to see someone that was usually so closed off so invested in how much dust and dirt there was on a ship. Maybe that was his true love? The ship? You shook your head to make the images disappear.

It was probably best to go back to your room and take a shower. Currently you could easily be tracked by the trail of sand you left behind and you did not know whether or not that would have consequences. Certainly it would make the janitors mad, after all you were making their job harder. Ap'lek was not any better though, and you made your way through the Finalizer like two very dry snails.

"MD-2442!", you heard a familiar voice behind you, perhaps if you continued walking you could avoid the conversation? Probably not. Ap'lek wanted to leave but you raised your hand slightly. He understood.

"I was looking for you for the past two weeks...but you are only in the upper decks, and I am not allowed there. I am sorry for what happened...we shouldn't have asked."

You turned around and looked down on Rosie. The height difference between you two was further increased by you wearing combat boots. It was ridiculous when you two were working together, but for her right now it was probably more uncomfortable.

"No. You shouldn't have.", your voice was as dry as the sand that was falling onto the floor with every movement.

"Do you want to come over...just us?", she raised her head and looked properly at you. She looked worried. Worried that you would say no, but not just that. "You are so pale..."

"I swear by now you should all be used to me looking like this!"

It had been fun the first ten times, now it did get rather exasperating.

"No. Extra pale right now.", Ap'lek added and you scoffed.

"I always do when-", you stopped yourself. Telling Rosie about being able to create a Force Void was not your intention, even if it did explain your pale skin, "Anyway. No, Rosie, I do not want to come over. I do not want to talk about what happened on Weih. Frankly, I do not even want to be reminded of it."

"No...I did not mean that...I...I won't ask about any of that again, I promise.", she looked down, "Please...sometime this week, alright? Just us two, I have some interesting stuff to tell you."

Ap'lek tilted his head and even though he was wearing his mask you could guess what kind of facial expression he had. Fine.

You took a deep breath and sighed, "Alright. I'll tell you when I have time. I need to warm up now."
