There the doe wandered through the steely forest.
He watched her from a distance within The Peacekeeper's halls. Innocent. Perhaps, but perhaps not. He prepared a phrase in mind, a clause of preoccupations that'd brought him here to justify his spying. It was a strange transitional phase, from fighting Sith to creeping in a woman's shadow. But each was equally just in its intent. To uproot evil wherever it hide.
Aibhne looked absolutely battered, having skirted his previous appointment to attend this necessary duty. In fact he was probably being chased this very moment. Though he was suited in a clean and comfortable black slip, shirt and slacks, his complexion remained bruised and beset with sealed cuts; one most prominently dried at the center of his bottom lip. But he refused to leave her to her dubious devices. No doubt she had plans to infiltrate the Jedi and sell her findings to the Sith. Though, in truth, his eyes kept falling below her waistline. She could be hiding some biological weapons there after all. One could never be too careful.
As he followed her, he did recall and reconsider his strict pursuit of her dismissal. And while he stood by it, he also felt a growling guilt in his gut. She had saved his life after all. Though the way Jedi Lord Zo took her payment upon himself rather than give Aibhne his right to settle the debt himself definitely ate at his pride. Aibhne had been harsh towards her on top of basically refusing her a favor, so he naturally wished he could rebalance the scale. But something about her. Something about her caused within him some amount of friction, and he could not place why. And that bothered him incessantly.
Plus it was about lunch hour and the smells of cafeteria grub seeped through the vents, so his stomach was also speaking to that.
When he started to loose sight of her as he was remembering the shape of her ear as he had whispered into it, he suddenly panicked and moved out of cover to cross the hall into a doorway for cover. But suddenly an exiting Jedi appeared and they almost collided into each other. In so doing, the other Jedi spoke up and apologized for the inconvenience as they danced around each other before recognizing Aibhne and speaking his name aloud with an inquisitively pointing finger. @Sreeya
