Never, in her life as a bounty hunter, had Reiel bailed out of a barfight that devolved into a tense standoff as fast as she did. While she avoided being a part of such scuffle, she didn't expect finding herself getting engaged in one with a Jedi to boot.
And to make things worse, some strange man who was oddly not-Jedi had been involved as well – seemingly taking the two women's side despite not belonging to the Jedi Order himself (as implied by the Jedi the Mandalorian had unceremoniously dragged out of the bar with her, anyway). He might have sort of sided with them, but kriff, he had been the source of what should've been a bloodbath taking place in the cantina had Reiel not attempted her hand at diplomacy to settle things – all thanks to yet another Jedi persuading the bar patrons to disengage but pulling her lightsaber out at them regardless. Utreekov. Trying to get all of us fecking killed.
She remembered seeing the strange man winking at her in the dark as they made their leave, the light from his unstable saber bathing him with it's soft but crackling glow. And when he made the move to follow, Reiel found herself gripping the Jedi's arm tighter and practically bolting away from the place once she set foot outside of the cantina.
Reiel didn't stick to the streets on her way back to the spaceport with the Jedi in tow – the Mandalorian took to several alleys, switching paths so as to shake off anyone who were foolish enough to follow. Only when she was sure that they were not being tailed did she head straight for the spaceport where her buir's ship was docked.
"Over here, quick," she urged the Jedi, and would push the latter hurriedly towards the docking bay until the young Mandalorian finally caught sight of her father's ship. As she approached, Reiel looked up and caught sight of her parent gazing down at her from the same viewport she'd seen him last. With a wave of her hand she greeted him, but he did not return it and instead his grey helmet moved slightly to the Jedi's direction.
Okay, that didn't look good.
Hand immediately lowering, Reiel turned to regard her companion instead.
Rescuing a Jedi now, are we? And calling her your acquisition? Bold of you to make such claims, idiot.
"Hey, um... were you hurt? From the barfight? Are you okay?" she asked, concern bleeding in her voice despite her attempts to conceal it. "Sorry I had to drag you out there... didn't feel right leaving you... er..."
Reiel would trail off, helmeted head tilting to the side in a silent request for the Jedi's name.
