Jaina isn't the only one of ours to disappear this week.  Tenel Ka has gone again, as well.  [His brow is knit only the slightest bit, something more calm and accepting in his tone than the last time he had to make this announcement.  He just seems more stoic about it than anything.

[will just ... be quietly stalking this. It's for her own observation, though she may chime in on occasion because ... she's nosy.]

I'm sorry that you lost your people, Jacen. Is there anything I can do?

[video-private]

[soloing]

No need to be sorry. Perhaps it'll make it easier for me to focus on what we're doing here.

You knew Kyp before, didn't you? When he was older? You know the man he becomes.

He was my master before you, remember? I know. I remember. You are really bad at comforting distraught teenage girls, Master Girl Hair.

[Shiori is still holed up in her room.]

Hello, Jacen. I'm sorry to hear about Jaina and Tenel Ka.

[soloing]

Shiori. [A warm smile] Are you planning on coming out anytime soon?

[lily_schlaflied]

[Shiori smiles back, but it has nothing of her usual spark.] I'm sorry. Yes. One moment.

[action]

[The door to Shiori's room opens and she walks out, fully dressed, though clearly weary.] It's good to see you again, Jacen. [She means it, though she just sounds exhausted.]

[He'd move to give her a hug if she didn't look so uncertain. Instead he just gives her a gentle smile] You too. I felt you arrive, but I could tell you weren't ready for company.
