Good & Plenty (D12, EA)

[Phoebe Wren]

There was still a lot of time left to kill before tonight's mission, and she didn't really feel like hanging out in the usual spots as she'd prefer avoiding Riza.

So there she was, knocking on Xavien's door. Perhaps he was relaxing too before tonight.

[Xavien Laerrin]

She wouldn't be wrong, and after a few moments she was greeted by the only son of the Laerrin's opening the door to his room. He was dressed down, in a undershirt and pair of slacks, and as he spotted who was at the door he raised an eyebrow.

"Phoebe." He greeted her with a smile. "Something I can help you with?"

[Phoebe Wren]

Oh kriff. She hadn't really thought through her plan of what she actually would do if Xavien answered.

"Hey there..." she said somewhat awkwardly. "... I hope I'm not interrupting?"

OOC: Also realising I put D11 in the timestamp when it should be D12 lol. Fixed xD

[Evencious]

"Not at all." He stepped to the side and opened the door a little wider. "I was just relaxing a bit before tonight. Putting my head on straight."

[Phoebe Wren]

"Yeah... me too." Phoebe took the move as an unspoken invitation to step inside. "First time fighting a bunch of other Mandalorians, and all. Guess even I get pre-combat jitters."

Real smooth, Phoebe. Real smooth.

"What about you?"

[Evencious]

"Some, though I think that's natural." He replied with a easy smile, cocking his head to the side and watching her for a moment before turning towards a desk in the room.

"Could I get you something to drink then Phoebe? For the nerves?"

[Phoebe Wren]

"Hmm... I guess one drink can't hurt. You got your own mini-bar in here?" She took the chance now to get a look at Xavien's room and how he chose to decorate his personal space.

"Must be nice to have this space to yourself."

[Evencious]

The room wasn't any bigger then the one she shared, though with only a single occupant it more or less doubled the space. It was nearly organized. ((Perhaps surprisingly so)) With little to suggest his playful nature.

"You don't have the same?" He asked with a cocked eyebrow as he poured two glasses of pricey whiskey. "It is nice though, it's hard to find privacy on a ship."

[Phoebe Wren]

"Not a mini-bar, exactly. Just my own personal stash." She noted that it wasn't the cheap stuff he was pouring.

"We've been chasing after Cadera, and now the Saxons for a while... makes me wonder what's going to happen after tonight."

[Evencious]

"Hard to say really." He replied running his hand through his hair. "I suppose different people would have different opinions on what would come of all this too."

"I think i'm hoping for a bit of a new start though? Maybe after this we can put a lot of the past behind us? Hard to tell though."

[Phoebe Wren]

"How do you mean 'putting the past' behind us? Like, wipe out the older Saxons and move on?"

That did seem to her a tad too harsh.

[Evencious]

"Not quite." He replied with a laugh. "I just hope this is the end of this. Chasing after old enemies and fighting them, you know that sort of thing."

"We're a new clan. We're supposed to be moving forward right? Finding new contracts, proving our worth. Things like that."

[Phoebe Wren]

"I guess so, though this is pretty much in the territory of proving our worth. Possibly saving the future of clan Saxon, and having done the legwork on uncovering their plans." She shrugged a little.

"But yeah, moving forward sounds good. Focus more on the clan, the future... not thinking too much about the past anymore. I've at least found the peace of mind to know that this is where my future is."

[Evencious]

"Well, I'm glad to hear that." He replied taking a sip of his drink. "It's really not a easy decision after all. Hitching yourself to a new clan that is."

"At least I never thought it was."

[Phoebe Wren]

"It's a complicated issue," she agreed and took a sip of the whiskey as well. "But it's gonna be a good clan, I think. Axel and Coryn are good additions to any clan, and well... your sisters seem pretty cool, as do your parents."

Phoebe studied the contents of her glass. "You're not too bad yourself." There, that was a smooth line, right?!

[Evencious]

"Not to bad?" A smirk made it's way onto his lips. "I suppose I'll take compliments from you when I can get them."

"You're right about Axel and Coryn though. They are good people, reliable really. Which isnt always easy to find."

[Phoebe Wren]

"Yeah? Well, you better, since I don't just compliment anybody," she chuckled, trying to make it seem nonchalant, but that wasn't really something she knew how to do.

"But I'm reliable too, right?"

[Evencious]

"Aye." He eyed her for a moment. "You're good with that huge sword you swing around, and are a deft hand in the operating too."

"Having you around will surely be a boon for this clan."

[Phoebe Wren]

"Heh, thanks," she said, actually not getting flustered over flattery this time.

"Well, I'm glad you invited me along for this. I'm not sure I would've done it if not for you, Xavien."

[Evencious]

"Now that almost sounds like more of a compliment then your last one, Phoebe." He offered with a flash of hiscterth as he grinned.

"Still, you're welcome. Thanks for deciding to give this clan of ours a shot."
