Commerce planet, Saturday FH time

[can_be_more]

From a distance, the commerce planet just looked like any other ordinary world. It wasn't until anyone got closer that they would notice just how busy it was. It didn't look too out of the ordinary, just a marketplace, except it was bigger than any old marketplace

Isabel had planned on being nonchalant and not being to affected by the fact that she was on another planet. That plan lasted all of fifteen seconds. Eyes wide, she looked around.

Luke's eyes were just as wide. "It's like Mos Eisley," he said, pretending to be just as unaffected. "Watch your money."

[izzyalienqueen]

"Really? So you've been places like this before?" she asked, still looking around.

[tatooine_doofus]

Five times ever in his life. "The spaceport back home," Luke said. "Ben called it a wretched hive of scum and villainy and he really wasn't exagerrating."

Sam was looking around at all the buildings, trying to figure out which one was most likely to be a prison or holding facility. She was visibly armed, but was still only a blonde eighteen year old human, so probably not so much with the intimidation factor.

And as long as she was looking around, a grenade or two might be a good idea--she'd given Aeryn's to John, and that was Aeryn's. It wouldn't have felt right using it.

"See anything?" John asks.

[carter_i_am]

She shook her head. "Not a thing. What about you? Did Aeryn ever describe a holding center or a barracks or anything?"

[whitedeathpod]

"Nope." He stops and scans the area. "She told me about her world. Just never anything specific. I wouldn't even know where to look. Dammit."

"They're not for sale," John says immediately.

"Oh." John smiles in apology. "They're not from this place."

Sam didn't know what a kretma was, but she suspected that 12000 of them for a bad crystal was a poor bargain. "Changed? How?"

[whitedeathpod]

"I don't have any kretmas, I'm sorry," Sam shrugged and prepared to walk on to the next vendor.

A little farther into the marketplace, Peter was looking around, trying to see if anything triggered his spider-sense. If there was something really dangerous, there was a good chance Aeryn would be over there.

Peter caught sight of the little creature and felt the urge to go over by it. "Hey, little guy. Nice weather we're having, huh?"
