He hasn't been out of his room.

He's Afraid that something else would happen. Perhaps this place isn't as wholesome and family friendly as he thought

Kerowyn is people watching from her table when she notices a boy looking like he could use someone to talk to. She catches his eye and offers a smile.

"Hello."

[jusa_littlelion]

Robbie offers the woman a sharp look, "He-Hello."

She must be new. Then again he could have Sworn he'd seen a face like hers before. perhaps that's just milliways though

[herald_captain]

"My name's Kerowyn."

She gestures to a chair, "Want a seat?"

[jusa_littlelion]

Robbie stares, offering her a smile, "...okay." He steps over-every movement cautious, "...I haven't seen you before."

"You know, I have a cousin who's probably your age," Jaina says softly from her booth. She picks up a honeywafer from her plate and dips it in her mug of caf.

It's not that bad a combination.

"He comes here often. A Ben Skywalker?"

[jusa_littlelion]

Robbie thinks about this for a moment, "Does he like Chocolate Milkshakes? If so I think I might have seen him."

He smiles, she seems like a nice lady-however nervous he might be.

[jedipilot]

"It's sweet and his mother probably would disapprove of him having too many." She nods, grinning gently at him. "That would be our cousin."

Jaina takes a bite of the honeywafer in her hand before continuing. "I'm Jaina."

[jusa_littlelion]

Robbie's staring at the wafer, but he shakes it off, smiling and offering her a hand, "Robbie. Robbie Preston."

He holds out a hand, "-I'm Robbie. Robbie Preston."

He had a difficult time making friends, but he's a genuinely friendly kid.

[withoutanydoubt]

Comfort, alas, cannot be promised as a certainty in Riza's case. Introduction, however, can. She hadn't realized that there were children who came to the bar, though perhaps she should have intuited it, and so eyes the boy sidelong before speaking. "Are you all right?"

[jusa_littlelion]

Robbie looks up, "Huh? Yeah-I'm-"

Not okay. But-

"-Surviving." robbie smiles, "-You must be new here."

He offers her a smile.

[withoutanydoubt]

"I am indeed." The woman, a soldier by her uniform, smiles as well, somewhat reserved. "You're very perceptive." Or she's very obvious in her unfamiliarity, which is equally possible to her mind.

She studies him with a critical eye, concern not quite masked. "You look nervous. Is something the matter?"

[jusa_littlelion]

"No ma'am."
I'm just shy..

Robbie shrugs, "...I'm not used to meeting new people. Ah-"

He studies her uniform, "-Military?"

[silvia_broome]

"Little boy, are you all right?"

[jusa_littlelion]

And there's a Robbie looking up sharply. the woman looks pretty.

"-Oh yeah-I um-"

Robbie peers about.

"I don't like crowds."

[silvia_broome]

"Ah. And are your parents here?"

[jusa_littlelion]

Robbie looks around before shaking his head, "No ma'am. My dad left and I accidentally got...."

Robbie's head lowers, "Trapped here."

[transgenic_max]

Hey, here's someone familiar. Max waves to Robbie, giving him a bright smile. "Hey there, kiddo."

[jusa_littlelion]

Robbie's eyebrow goes up and he grins, "Max!"

[transgenic_max]

"I take it you're happy to see me?" she says with a laugh. "How've you been?"

[jusa_littlelion]

Robbie's smile fades, "-I got stuck here Max."
