As usual Tycho had arrived at the designated meeting place at the debriefing room in Rogue Squadron's headquarters a little ahead of time. There was nothing for him to prepare really, but he'd called the meeting, so it was still good for him to be there first

"It really has. Damn good to have Mara around again. Though I'm sure she'll make me regret those words in about a week." Hadn't he promised himself no jokes? Well it was Mara so it would probably end up being true anyway. "Still in shock about most of it. I don't think I got to meet even half the people that showed up."

"I'm a little in shock myself," Tycho admitted with a rueful, but happy, smile.

Luke took a seat a couple over from Kyle Katarn, so there was room for Mara.

She sat next to Luke, crossed her legs and scooted around a bit to get comfortable. She glanced at her husband and murmured under her breath, "You know this is going to be you against them all, right?"

"Tycho. How are you feeling?"

"I spoke to him at length...but I'll wait to share that with everybody." He looked back at Tycho, gave a small shrug. Who knew? It was just what they had to deal with, right?

Tycho shrugged back. Yep, they were Rogues. They would deal with it.

What a day. After being in Leia's arms again Han felt like he could take on the universe...which technically is exactly what they'd be doing on Stacy.
There was a lot of information to process tonight. If Thrawn was such a big deal that they'd had to organize a meeting for him AND Vader, he'd get serious as soon as the situation call for it. Or let out a few wisecracks about it, whichever came first.

Jacen settled with absently shifting the chair back and forth. Not full circles, but it would have to do.
He glanced to his mother, who was a couple empty seats away and then looked back to the table. He figured he'd already scared her enough for now.

Jacen could feel the prodding from his sister, verbally and through their bond and tried his hardest to stay still. But it was no use. One super fast spin, coming right up.
Grabbing the edge of the table and stopping himself, he realized he counted at least three rotations before coming to a halt and he felt himself chuckling at this. For once since he had arrived, just once, something felt normal.
"Thanks," he mumbled to her, finally feeling somewhat relaxed. His eyes stayed on the table, hoping no one had really noticed what he had done.

"Didn't want you to give yourself an ulcer," she retorted dryly.
Still, she took great comfort from his glee and his easiness. So little of life on Stacy could be carried out without the weight of their situation, their mortality hanging over them, but just for that moment Jaina had forgotten she had anything to worry about at all.
She leaned in to whisper, "How'd it go with mom earlier?"
