[ft_directory]

With only two days of vacation left, time was running out for the guests to enjoy the blue skies and warm ocean breeze of Hawaii. Luckily, there were still plenty of things to do at the resort, for anyone who wasn't worn out from all the fun yet!

"You and Tenel Ka." Tahiri was forgiven for being distracted by the pretty looking incredulous there, right? Because she'd seen Tenel Ka around Jacen, so that wasn't awkward at all. At all. She'd also seen Jaina around Jag, Kyp, and Zekk, so . . .

"Sithspit, of all the hobbies anyone could come up with. I'd be tempted to look myself up, but I doubt I'd find anything."

"Spare yourself," Jaina advised. "Thanks to Fandom I missed being on the HoloNet at two very big times when I should have been, so I didn't think I'd find anything either. And now if I probably had less alcohol still in my system I'd be wanting to go hunt some of these authors down."

This is why she should never chaperone.

Tahiri did not allow herself to say anything about how it would give Jaina something to do, even if she knew how Jaina got about too much downtime. That was the sort of thing that should never be encouraged, really.

"Spared because of a hangover," she remarked instead, more teasing than chiding. "Those authors will never have any idea how lucky they are."

"Or unlucky, as at the very least they could use a good lecture on how so many of the things they write are not even possible. And learn that I don't talk the way they write me." Though it was weirder when they got characterization right.

"Do they like to mention your height and eye color every other paragraph, too?" Tahiri had to ask, unaware of the astounding irony. "As if any of them have ever even met you, or have a clue what you're actually like."

Watch, now she was going to go get her datapad, and end up discovering fic about Threepio and the Sarlacc. Look what you might have started, Jaina.

"Mostly they call me 'tiny' and describe my eyes as orbs," she complained. "...You sound like you've read a few of these."

Re: The Orchid Court

[weetuskenraider]

"Nothing about you!" Tahiri said quickly. "But there's stories like that about Rumor Gal and things like that, and they're the same way."

Re: The Orchid Court

[solo_sword]

Jaina couldn't help but smirk a little. "You read a lot of stories about Rumor Gal, Tahiri?"

Re: The Orchid Court

[weetuskenraider]

"Only a couple," Tahiri said defensively. "The Galaxy Quest ones have much more of a terrifying fascination."

Re: The Orchid Court

[solo_sword]

Now the smirk turned into a smile, though she had to say, "I'm not sure I want to ask, but I almost want to ask."

Re: The Orchid Court

[weetuskenraider]

Tahiri made a face. "It's the ones where they write about the cast members having all kinds of torrid affairs behind the scenes . . ."

She could just die of embarrassment now.

Re: The Orchid Court

[solo_sword]

"That's the kind of stuff I've been finding!" Jaina said, jaw dropped. "So this is what you do in your spare time..."

Re: The Orchid Court

[weetuskenraider]

Tahiri was pretty sure she couldn't get brighter red. "I'll never get to make fun of you for spending all your vacations working out now, will I?"

Re: The Orchid Court

[solo_sword]

"No. For several reasons, including the headache I have now and the reason for it," she said. "But mostly for that."

Re: The Orchid Court

[weetuskenraider]

"Now I have to know how you ended up with the headache," Tahiri told her, trying hard not to smirk a little.

"I got together with Grandfather and Rory and Tiny Mom, we started out with margaritas, and then the tequila came out when Mom started reading bits from stories about Grandfather," Jaina said. "When they turned out to be stories about him with Obi-wan, I figured I could break some of my rules for drinking if there was any chance I could black out and remember none of it."

Clearly that did not work.

Re: The Orchid Court

[weetuskenraider]

"Leia's read stories about your grandfather and Master Kenobi." Never mind that Tahiri was horrible at holding her liquor; tequila sounded so good right now. "There are stories about your grandfather and Master Kenobi. I don't know which of those things is more terrifying."

Re: The Orchid Court

[solo_sword]

"She didn't seem to know what that particular story was about when she started," Jaina said. "Though that didn't stop the reading for a while. I really wish I'd blacked out and remembered none of it."
