FANDOM EXPOSITION, The Park, All Day Saturday (8:00 - 23:00)

[fjordicswagger]

Where had the staff come from? Nobody knew. But sometime at six in the morning, a group of people arrived in the park and immediately spread out over the premises, constructing a bunch of nondescript stands at a rapid pace. They set out cheap soft drinks on the picnic tables, put up some large banners, cleaned the place up and scared off a few

At some point during the day, Hondo decided it might be profitable neighbourly to see what his fellow stall holders were selling (and if they were paying close enough attention to notice if their stock went walkabout). "Hello, my dear, I must ask, have we met before?"

Sorry, Jaylah.

Jaylah eyed him closely.

The total number of faces she had seen over the course of her life was few enough that she could remember most of them.

"No," she said flatly. "I do not think so. Who are you?"

Re: Beats by Jaylah

[hondo_yes]

Someone who was not Hondo might have been discouraged by that tone.

"Who am I? Why, I am Hondo Ohnaka, infamous leader of the reowned and feared Ohnaka Gang." Now much reduced, no thanks to the Empire. "That is who I am."

Re: Beats by Jaylah

"Hello, Hondo Ohnaka," Jaylah said, evidently not impressed. "I am Jaylah."

Infamous leader of nothing and no one.

"Would you care to review my music?"

Re: Beats by Jaylah

[hondo_yes]

That's what the on Imperial wit near the top of Hondo's revenge list had said too. But onto more pleasant pursuits. "Oh, my dear, I'm all ears."

Hondo, no.

Re: Beats by Jaylah

Jaylah tilted her head to the side. "A being made of only ears would surely find it difficult to communicate as you have done," she pointed out. "I will assume this is another..." What was that phrase again? "Figure of speech."

Re: Beats by Jaylah

[hondo_yes]

"Yes, I do appreciate a woman who knows her figures of speech."

Oh, this was going to be a challenge.

Re: Beats by Jaylah

[itsa_sabotage]

It was not going well so far, no.

Jaylah arched an eyebrow and gave Hondo a very stern, almost menacing look.

Re: Beats by Jaylah

[hondo_yes]

Hondo did not necessarily consider a desire to murder him a deal-breaker.

Hondo had terrible taste in women.

Re: Beats by Jaylah

[itsa_sabotage]

Probably.

"Are you going to buy my music, Hondo Ohnaka?" Jaylah asked, not letting up on that hard stare.

Re: Beats by Jaylah

[hondo_yes]

"How could I say not to such a charming woman?"

Re: Beats by Jaylah

[itsa_sabotage]

Jaylah made a disgusted noise.

She tapped one of the mixes. "This one is loud and angry. I find it enjoyable."

Re: Beats by Jaylah

[hondo_yes]

"Then I shall trust in your good taste, which hopefully extends to other areas."

Well, she wasn't interested in you, so it probably did, Hondo.
