New Friends, Old Bars.

[Jim Pehico]

Location: Level 1238, Coruscant, Home of the "Angry Acklay."

Time: 12:23 GST, around noon on Coruscant.

​Jim was no stranger to the Angry Acklay, famous to the underworld for it's lum. The place may look like a dump, but can they serve great booze or what!? Jim was sitting at the bar, on his third glass of lum, already beginning to feel a buzz. It was a nice change of pace to actually feel something for once. The bartender, Griff, walked over to Jim, cleaning a glass with a rag.

​"Jim, you are honestly my best customer, and this is why it pains me to say, I can't give you anymore until you pay me you're tab." Griff said sighing.

​Jim looked over to Griff, his emotionless face began to frown. "Look, Griff, my credits are in my ship, I'll get it right now." He said walking out of the bar, slightly stumbling.

Sky wasn't really feeling herself today, she felt odd, it was one of those days that wasn't one gender or the other. She would look for and quickly find a bar, she needed a drink badly. She would step inside shortly after the man had left and step up to the bar ordering a drink she would make her way over to a booth where she would sit alone per the norm

Jim came back soon after, with the credits. Jim piled it on the table as Griff silently counted it out. he mumbled to himself as he was separating the credits.

"Sorry Jimbo, you're off by 25 credits." Griff said, tough as nails.

Jim gave him a look of astonishment.

"Griff, it's me!" Jim said, trying to get the man to show some mercy.

"Sorry Jim, No means no. If I say yes to you than I have to say yes to everyone else." Griff said.

Jim looked around at the patrons and noticed the only patron alone was a woman with short, pink hair.

"'Scuse me doll, I know we don't know each other, but I was hoping I could borrow, 25 credits, and I'll either pay you back or and I.O.U. whichever comes first." Jim smirked.

As Sky was approached she would turn around, as the man asked she would consider it but she was like her mother a giver, she couldn't really say no to most people. She would hand him the credits he had asked her for and smile at him. He was kinda cute, she would also walk over with the man as he handed over the credits and say "First drink is on me"

Jim smiled, "See, Griff? this is the politeness I expect here." Jim said nudging to his new friend. He ordered a lum and looked back over to her. His green eyes brightened from the lights hanging overhead. He sat down at the bar and looked over to her.

"So tell me about yourself stranger." He smirked.

"Whats there to tell, my name is Sky, I was born on Dagobah, I am gender-fluid just trying to make my way in the galaxy" she said taking a swig "What about you stranger"

"My name is Jim, Jim Pehico, born on Naboo, became apart of the Honor Guard, you know the pilots that join the queen off world, however my Ship was sliced into forced to attack the queen and now, well now I'm just your average scoundrel." Jim said smirking trying to hide the fact that the subject upset him.

"So Dagobah huh, You're the first Dagobahian I've ever met, Why'd your mom decide to raise you there?" Jim asked.

 

[Eli-Mae Forrest]

"I have no clue, she just crashed there one day and decided to stay, it made me really old school and oh the royal guard?" She asked taking another swig smiling at him dreamily

She was looking at him in a way which Jim could totally tell that she was into him. Her blue eyes gleamed despite the dim lighting in the bar. Her smile, unlike anything Jim had ever encountered. Jim took another sip of his lum.

"Yea," Jim said with a smile, "So what's your current occupation, beautiful?" Jim said as he wiped the alcohol off his moustache with a napkin.

"As of right now I am just a bit of a free roamer, I take odd jobs upon occasion but I am really trying to see the galaxy, as much as I can before I die" She said taking another sip she would blush through it, she wasn't used to being called beautiful at all
