All of the warning bells in Vanya's head were blaring like a church cathedral at the King's wedding. She was from Dathomir, after all, and she had seen plenty of Dark Side witches, predatory hermits, and the like to know where this was going to go. It was no coincidence that the lady was at the...
Vanya completely missed Jun's discomfort over her comments about the Empire. She had her own mixed feelings on the group that even she felt were probably somewhat inconsistent. She'd fight them at the drop of the hat, but it wasn't quite as clear cut as fighting abominations.
"Unpirate," she...
Shaw asked Vanya if she had a plan, and she should have said she did and seemed the confident, omniscient authority that everyone saw Jedi Masters as. But Vanya wasn't a Jedi Master, she was a Warden, and she was hardly your traditional Jedi leadership.
Not really, she said with a shrug and...
Vanya glanced back at the sound of spitting and her face twisted up a bit as she watched him choking on twigs and leaves. How... pleasant for him.
Squirrel slayer it was. It had been decided on.
It was only moments later that Shaw pointed out something very astute. Vanya... didn't sense...
Vanya definitely wasn't joking. Or at least she mostly wasn't joking.
It is what the Jedi call the Light. The domain of the Winged Spirit, she said, and it would become quite clear that although her beliefs weren't clear, Vanya had very different views on the Force than most of her comrades in...
He commented about the eavesdropping squirrel, making a joke before Vanya glanced over to look at him, frowning and her violet eyes taking on a hint of concern. He had meant it as a joke, but what if...
You... might not be wrong, she said hesitantly, casting her eyes around the clearing. There...
She nodded as he said that he didn't want to let Sevrin down. She knew that feeling all too well. Not because of her own master but because she felt like the whole Order was looking to her and a single misstep could undo everything they'd worked for... it was like trying to balance on a single...
Vanya smiled and nodded as he mentioned that Sevrin was the MVP. Yes, he probably was. How many notable Jedi had there been in the last decade? How many of those notable Jedi had survived the rise and reign of Andruil and Raze? Few. Very few.
Not a lot of people can say they've been through...
No, not apart from a couple of briefings we were in together on Corellia, she said. She had never actually spoken to the man directly and didn't really consider "being in the same room" as meeting.
Squirrels?! she blurted out before realizing it was probably rude for her to say that. But how...
Vanya was pulled into an embrace, and she went right along with it, slapping his back before being lifted physically off the ground.
Ooooh my goodness! she exclaimed in surprise, finally stepping back a moment later grinning ear to ear.
Ugh, please no, she said with a shake of her head as he...
Vanya glanced down at the clothes she was wearing as she realized what he was talking about.
They seemed practical, she said. The forest gets cold, she said with a shrug. But thanks, she said with a smile. More and more she had felt support from others within the Jedi and with it came the...
Vanya saw him approaching and actually didn't stand up right away, just sitting there against the tree until he had actually arrived.
The... what? she asked, his lingo about her outfit having been completely lost on her. She was hardly part of the "hip" group and she was late to the majority...
Vanya had always been a bit of a restless soul, but even by her standards compared to Jun, Vanya just ran from planet to planet. He had stayed behind on Jedha to stabilize the planet and make sure everything was settled while Vanya continued to be the vanguard of the Jedi advance, securing and...
Per my OP template, thread is death enabledVanya seemed to always get called out for "hey we've got a spooky problem that needs a Jedi to look into it" jobs. That was what this one was. Everything about this forest was wrong. It had a general darkness creeping over it, and Vanya had no idea what...
Oh, well that's good, Vanya said as he mentioned he got better with therapy. She had never been the best with things like "empathy" and "comforting" and "knowing what the heck to say." So, she picked a nice, neutral option and didn't press further to make him relive any more trauma than she...
