[The marketplace wasn't exactly Brennan's preferred place to hang out during his free time, but it was the best place he knew of to pick up a few credits that didn't belong to him.

So he was stealing--sue him. Considering he was still unemployed, falling back on old habits had proven the best method of getting by as long as he was still stuck in Star Wars.

Thus far he'd managed to avoid getting caught, and he still stuck true to his philosophy that he only rip off people who looked like they probably deserved it. It wasn't exactly a noble philosophy by any stretch, but he was robbing people blind here so what do you expect?

By the time he's tucking his newest credit chip into the safety of his own pocket, Brennan is already scanning the assembled crowd for his next mark]

[ Looking up, Jason recognized the face in the crowd. He had met the guy the day he arrived. He had trolled him, really. He wondered if Brennan recognized him, or, if he went up to him -- he would. So, he tested his theory, tucking away a new acquired space fruit.

Licking his lips he meandered through the crowd. Huh, the guy seemed to be pretty intent on something. Jason stopped, peering over, tilting his head. ]

[It's kind of rude to stare, for the record. But it doesn't take Brennan long to experience that weird vibe you get when you're being watched, at which point he glances over in Jason's direction.

It takes a few seconds, but the other guy's face eventually registers--probably because Brennan hasn't been the most social butterfly since he woke up on this planet. The fact that he recognizes Jason as someone he's at least spoken to before makes this slightly less awkward, but not much. For all he knew, Jason had watched him ripping people off this whole time...

Time to head on over and find out. So, yeah, he does that]

Hey--Jason, right?

[ His eyebrows raise as his confused expression softens into a smile. ]

Yeah. Hey. Brennan. [ He hopes. ] You seemed pretty -- intense, there.
