Moonlighter
A Prison on Nar Shadda...
"Deal me in," The Six-Gun Squid muttered as her pylantian form slithered over to the table. The guns that once filled every pseudopod had been replaced with a hand of sabbacc cards. Prison life wasn't so bad on Nar Shaddaa, other than the bruised ego that came with it.
"We playin' for somethin' of actual value this time?" The Ewok half of the Beastly Boys spoke. His partner in crime, a large Wookiee, bellowed in solidarity.
"Uhh… a few credits and… Steve's golden tooth." The Fabricator replied, looking at the measly pot.
"How the hell'd you get that?"
"Came spilling out of his mouth in fight with some other guy. I saw it an snatched it."
"Gross," The oft-silent Dathan Carnage spoke sourly. The party of players had a rare look at him unmasked— Pale skin burned by the wounds he had been given in his first encounter with Moonlighter and Mimic/Copycat/Whatever they were calling her these days.
"Your face is gross!" The Ewok replied, cackling at his own joke. Dathan gave him a death stare that went unnoticed.
This game of sabbacc was a regular occurrence for these incarcerated supervillains. They didn't all like each other per se, but they tolerated one another well enough. And they had one thing in common.
"Word on the outside is Moonlighter's gone missing. Along with his girlie." Six-Gun Squid commented after a few rounds of play.
"Can we not talk about him again?" Jahira scoffed and rolled her eyes, "We should have a timer for how long it takes for Moonlighter to get name-dropped."
"I hear you know his true identity," Dathan commented.
Jahira smirked, "A lady doesn't kiss and tell." There were a few ooh's from around the table. She said nothing more, content to hang that information over their heads.
"Still. If it's true, gotta wonder where he's gone to…"
