Ivory beauty

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

Was stardust being daring with this? She was nervous honestly, more so then when she would go to battle in the hottest of zones. Taking a breath she looked into the mirror as she made sure her dress was perfect and smoothed a few wrinkles while servants clean her lekku a bit and her nails as stardust nodded to herself

Why was she so nervous? She was getting ready for a date, but not with any normal person but one of the caporegimes, more importantly the one known as [member="Ivory Stroud"]. For some reason she had caught stars attention, after their first "date"at the race stardust figured it would be nice to have a proper one

Finishing she turned and walked out heading for the steps so she could wait outside, from there star would take them to their first stop, the shopping district

Ivory joined Star, smiling at the beautiful, emerald-skinned Twi'lek.. impressed by the woman's grace. The Queen of Zeltros, indeed.

It was to-be a day of fun, an escape from the rigors of her lifestyle, a day away from "Business"... a day to enjoy another's company, and forget about the hiding, the secrecy, and the danger.

The raven-haired woman was dressed in a fine black dress, wearing minimal makeup, and sporting her customary kyber crystal which sparkled as-if it were a living creature attached to her neck by a chain. She was armed, as she always was, but had put aside fears of assassinations or attacks in favor of putting her mind onto more constructive topics - namely, enjoying [member="Stardust Australis Skirae"]'s company. She would the Twi'lek to be exceedingly good company, and the two shared a considerable number of interests.. least of all, a love for the finer luxuries.

"Well..." She said, grinning at the elegant creature sitting beside her in the luxury speeder, "You're the boss... Where to first?"

I was thinking something to work up a appetite...the shopping district has some of the best shops on the planet, much of it made here in the city

She explained starting the speeder and taking off, glancing over for a long minute to admire the raven haired beuaty besid her before looking forward and smiling

mmm if beauty could kill them have mercy on me

She said and chuckled as she navigated them through the cityscape which was just beginning to turn all its lights on as the sun went down. The city was best seen at night in her opinion and she wanted to show her date such as well

hows the air treating you? Newcomers usually have a hard time without filters, took me maybe a week to get used to it

Star wanted to insure ivory wasnt uncomfortable. Looking it she pulled into a spot and landed getting out and going around to open the door for ivory holding her hand out

right this way my dear

Grinning at the gorgeously rugged Twi'lek woman, Ivory felt a warmth curling in her belly.. and she sighed, enjoying the beauty of the city lights as they stretched out in all directions. The landspeeder wove it's way through an intricate dance, finding paths she'd never guessed existed. "This place is... beautiful..." She muttered, half to her companion and half to herself. "I'm all for spending credits." She replied with a ferocious glint in her eye - the truth was, she had more money than she knew what to do with.

Ivory took a breath, feeling exhilerated.. relaxed. At peace. "I feel good, actually... What's wrong with the air? Pheromones?" She asked, feeling a tickle in the back of her throat - but nothing like an allergic reaction. She bit her lip, allowing wandering eyes to caress the creature beside her. Ivory's calm, penetrating stare could melt the strongest steel hearts in the Galaxy... or cut like a lightsaber to the core. They arrived, and Ivory was about to exit the speeder herself, but found herself being treated like... like...

Well, certainly different.

She took Star's offered hand, gazing into the green-skinned woman's face, Ivory's own features unreadable.

She did not let go.

"Please... after you." She said, content to give up control for the time-being.

Stardust offered a soft smile as she helped ivory out of the speeder and shut the door turning to look at the many many shops around them with colorful lights and displays all around

well let's head to a dress shop, weve a lot of fancy and exquisite dresses that should catch your eyes

With that she led them through the crowd being taller then most of the people here yet many that knew her didnt approach her only mumbled and smiled seeing the queen out and about among the city with a raven haired lady

and yes just pheromones sometimes can be overwhelming to those not acclimated to the air, it vary sometimes it lightly affects someone soemtimes it heavily affects someone to the point they should slowly get used to the air

She examined and stopped in front a store looking over the displays that had wonderful dresses good enough for a night on the town or a night at the club. Leading them inside stardust smiled

looks like they've a nice selection, let's look around shall we?

The criminal siren followed dutifully, glancing as strange faces seemed to recognize Stardust. Her eyebrows raised and she allowed herself a small grin - being seen with the Queen of Zeltros would certainly turn some heads... and perhaps open some doors she wouldn't have seen, otherwise. Ivory took a breath, taking in the air of the planet and it's scent; feeling a warm buzzing sensation behind her eyes. She was somewhat familiar with the stories about Zeltros - that some found themselves completely enraptured or bed-ridden from extreme reactions to the planet and it's people. Whether by her experience with mind-altering substances, or some other design, she didn't feel an extreme... but the world had a dream-like glimmer to it's edges.

Ivory giggled, nodding in response as Stardust pulled her into a store filled with beautiful dresses and apparel - some of them in styles she'd never seen before. "Oh my... this is lovely.." She whispered, feeling like a little girl unleashed in a candy store.

Within 20 minutes, she'd already found two dresses she adored, each accentuating her delicious curves and neck-line... a look she preferred, and relied upon in her business dealings. Her athletic figure was lithe, toned, and she needed fine clothing which gave her a classy yet practical look - something she could work in, as well as play. She never looked at the prices once.

"So.. tell me about Zeltros.." She asked [member="Stardust Australis Skirae"]. "I've never been here, before.. and you seem to love it."

The evening air had become somewhat cooler, but the dark-haired Femme Fatale rarely got cold. Coruscant was warmer at night, though she expected it was due to radiant heat, with its rising skyscrapers absorbing and spreading the heat of the day long after night had fallen.

Several years spent as queen of zeltros stardust got acclimated to the pheromones, firts yea was sorta rough but the months following she found he rbody adjusted to the point now it just made things a bit softer and herself able to relax a lot easier then anywhere else. Watching ivory as she smiled seeing her excited at the store she simply sat and watched comfortable with not purchasing anything as she didnt want to go through the fitting process needed

mmmm those will look amazing on you as if you couldnt get any more beautiful

Stardust stood and allowed her to pay before leading her back out. Taking a breath she felt a cool breeze pass her face as she looked down and smiled

I enjoy it greatly, years ago it was a rough place even more so in the capital, crime was high and slavers seemed to love this place. However once I came into power I systematically worked to destroy the drug trafficking and slave trafficking as well...I enjoy this place because you can relax and be yourself here at any given time even myself I need not be uptight unless its business

She said pausing as they walked slowly as she took a breath and closed her eyes

the party planet, pleasure planet, both true but what people dont see if that the people are mostly carefree, they have barely any worries

Their brief shopping done, Ivory made her purchases and paid with credits, giving a wink to the clerk behind the counter as she took her purchases, beautifully wrapped and placed in a fancy monogrammed bag, and followed Star into the evening air.

As they walked, Ivory listened to her companion explain the change Zeltros had undergone under her stewardship - and, at least here, in this fine shopping district, it seemed like the night was full of excitement. The smell of food and wood-smoke touched Ivory's nostrils from restaurants as they passed, and the Zeltros & other species they passed offered smiles but said little; sparkles of revelation in their eyes as some recognized the Twi'lek, but few said a word.

"I imagine that would be the case... here... but elsewhere, I wonder? There are ghettos, certainly?" Ivory asked, unconvinced that the change had been so total. Every planet she'd visited possessed cares & concerns - some worse, or more immediately threatening, than others.

She grinned at the thought of a place known as "Pleasure Planet"... and wondered if it were true.

She had begun to feel hungry, and wondered what Star might suggest for a meal... being the Queen & all.

She sighed and nodded

unfortunately...yes...very few but we are working to improving standards of living there and insure jobs are easy to get...its been a hard task but it has been worthwhile one

Looking around stardust knew it was about time for a good meal, eyes scanned everywhere until she stopped by a place where the smell of smoked food rolled out of it as she turned to ivory and offered a smile tilting her head towards the place

how does some smoked food sound, personally never tried it myself but o wouldnt mind having you there with me to try it

Holding a hand out she would wait until she took it and start leading them into the restaurant
