She'd tried. Everything she could think of. But this sort of thing wasn't exactly in Harper's wheelhouse. She was a farmer for crying out loud. She knew the soil, the weather, the way seeds sprouted. She'd been a 'Jedi' for a few weeks, and even she was hesitant to call herself that on it's own merit. In that time she had worked hard, but none of it had been training. Sure she had looked over that holocron and talked to [member="Ember Farseer"] and [member="Alden Belmont"] a bit, but everyone had been so busy getting the Praxeum settled, starting the Horizon Foundation. It hadn't seemed the important, not really. The work itself had been the important thing to Harper. Being a Jedi? Entirely secondary to that.
Now, however, she was seriously reconsidering her priorities. If she had learned more, surely there would be something she could have done here? Normally Harper wasn't prone to bouts of imaginative 'what if' but by the third hour of consciousness and the man in the tin-can not answering any of her questions, she'd started to imagine what it would be like to throw him into a wall with the Force.
Her few possessions were either lost in the mad chase, or taken. Not that any of it mattered. A hold out blaster. A comm link. She was relieved that she had left the holocron in the care of the Praxeum instead of bringing it with her. The loss of that would have been a blow.
No, instead it was just her. Hands locked behind her with a pair of stun cuffs, the bounty hunter's hand curled tight around her upper arm and leading her.... to who? She'd asked before but-
"At least tell me where you're taking me," she said, exasperated. "I mean I know it's not like a surprise party or something- if it is it's the worst one ever, and I want to speak to your boss about scaring the piss out of people as a party planning technique."
Once she realized he wasn't going to talk to her anyway, there was a certain freedom there.
Freedom to sass.
