Bespin, 1800 Hours
It wasn't Asheeks idea to go to a fancy dinner, its not something she had done in the past. But it was her idea to find a place on Bespin, the place where they had first met. Of course, her looking on the holonet was fruitless without heavy amounts of help from Kai, so any surprise she wanted to have was lost long before the date was even supposed to happen. But, she did manage to make a reservation at a rather reserved establishment, that seemed quite vehement on their 'no shoes no service' policy. Asheek wasn't about to let it disgruntle her, as she instead simply convinced them otherwise through some mystical means.
But she managed to do something herself, something she was quite proud of. She had put together a dress made of pelts that would be seen as elegant in a very tribal and alien sense. It was even complete with a ring of fur around the neck of the outfit, of a light gray animal. No doubt the dress itself was made from several species, and knowing her, she had hunted down every one of them herself. In a fashion true to her nature, she still refused to wear shoes, her bare, red feet properly cleaned before arriving to not track dirt or other grime.
Upon her head sat something of an odd nature, something obviously tribal in nature, something functioning as jewelry. Thin strands of string went around her montrails, against her flesh in a dark brown color. In three places hung little glistening things, which appeared to be bone of some kind, whether tooth or claw. She had no brought her Lightsaber Pike, simply because she did not believe that it would be needed in such a setting, as well as the fact that it was not an easy thing to conceal.
Regardless, it was probably the most formal that Kai had seen the Togrutan, especially considering his past experiences with the Togrutan, where she found no issue in changing clothes in front of him. If it wasn't for those familiar facial and body markings, it might have been difficult to recognize the red skinned alien.
As they entered and took a seat, she had been meticulous in choosing a seat that allowed them vision to the darkening outside of the planet, and the endless ocean of gas below. She had chosen the seating not just to see the impressive sights of the swirling gases below, but to also, hopefully catch a glance of the native Beldon, or other such creatures that lurked below the formless surface.
A male Zabrak, the one who had led them to the table, handed them both menus, glass, rectangular, thin devices that holographically showed food and its description. The only parts that weren't the translucent material was the gleaming, metallic edges, that kept the table from scratching against it when placed down. "Food and drinks are ordered through these devices, please enjoy your meal." The Zabrak stated with a friendly voice. He was dressed in a formal uniform, and his face bore dark, tan tattoos that complimented his skin tone quite well. His horns were quite large, and well kept.
As he walked off, Asheek looked down at the device, scanning the foreign, unreadable words of Basic for a symbol, one she remembered for all languages. Using just symbols she recognized, she changed the devices settings to show words of Shilian translation. Giving a smile to Kai, she began to look through the choices of food, giving brief glances into the crowded restaurant around them. "Well, this is certainly a change of pace." She remarked, believing that, for at least an evening, she could relax.
