Padme wanders on down from her room to the kitchen. She hasn't given up on researching a way to get them all home, but it's certainly taken the back burner lately. No big breaks, and no new ideas lately. It seems useless to keep going over the same information again and again and again

For the first time ever really, Talia ventures from her room when there are other people around. She rubs her temples absently with her gloved-hands. It seems quieter today, which is a plus in her book.

She smiles absently at the young woman already in the kitchen and looks for some cranberry juice.

Padme offers the newcomer a polite smile. "Hello."

Talia finds and pours the juice. "Hello. I'm.. Talia." She supposes first names are good enough here.

"It's nice to meet you. I'm Padme." She gestures to another chair at the table. "Would you like to sit down?"

[when_telepaths]

"Sure," Talia says. She's trying to figure out whether the rules or even simple politeness here require her to inform Padme that she's a tepe. Blocking out everything was impossible, but she wasn't trying to spy on anyone in the hotel's thoughts.

But she sits, nervously toying with the glass in her gloved hands. "Where're you from Padme?"

[sen_amidala]

Padme sips her tea. "Before I arrived here, I was living on Coruscant. But originally I'm from Naboo. Where are you from?" She asks curiously.

[when_telepaths]

"Originally? It doesn't matter. I'm human, raised by the Corps on Earth. But I was living on the Babylon Five station. I can't quite figure out how I got back to Earth without noticing." Her tone is lightly ironic, but she keeps smiling, ignoring the tea except as something to keep her hands occupied.
