She tagged along loosely, more amazed by the joyous rancor around them than anything else really. Also, hampered by the fact she was wearing a dress. Not that she wasn't interested in such things, but it was very rarely she donned dresses; generally it was for very special events. Ala had basically picked it out, while Aayla had vied to just wear her usual civilian threads. Even going as far as getting her hair redone for the event. What the dress did thankfully hide was that she was barefoot. Heels Ala? No way! As such she padded along carefully, holding the dress up about herself as the other lead her down a pathway behind some shops.
"Ala, some of these places have no trespassing signs..."
Aayla would note, though also seeing many people were heading up to their own roofs, and didn't seem interested in pursuing such petty qualms. Everyone was jubilant, and almost every face was smiling. Save for her own... How selfish. She tried to focus, and smile, at least be happy someone had taken the time out to show her something that didn't involve a lightsaber. When Ala called her silly, she just exhaled, and sped up behind her, eventually taking the ladder and, moving behind her. When Ala sat, Aayla sat as well; looking out on the horizon.
Now, to be fair Aayla had calmed down a lot since she had been cleared to act relatively independently again. Actually thinking before she spoke, and maintaining some decorum as a Jedi, but yeah, she had her moments. Not like she was going on a killing spree or anything...
When they sat, Aayla instead leaned back, letting her feet dangle from the roof, and would also sigh aloud.
"Dresses aren't for me, how can you fight in this thing?" she asked, mostly herself, aware Ala would have some snappy answer to the question, likely something truthful, but also not what she wanted to hear. All the same, Aayla sensed this was important to Ala, so she wasn't going to complain the whole time. Instead she silently waited, with her temporary makeover she had the looks to be a one day model, now jewel encrusted, and glittering, in more ways than one. She just didn't feel how she looked.
She felt for some odd reason like people knew this wasn't her usual dig, and were watching; as ridiculous as the premise was. As if anyone cared... Glancing around, everyone's (including Ala's) eyes were glued ahead, waiting.
As such, she waited as well. Ala promised a magical sight, and so far all Aayla was getting was dull summer heat. Well, in a way, it was surprisingly cool once the sun started to set, just warm enough to not be cold, and just cool enough to not break a sweat.
