    Summary

    Dathomir and Ilum are not next-door neighbors. The crew of the Mantis has a bit of a journey ahead of them, but once they make it there, Cal can find a new kyber crystal for his lightsaber, get this mission back on track, and unlock the vault on Bogano. Retrieve the holocron before the Empire catches up to them. Rebuild the Jedi Order.

    He doesn’t have time to get sick.

    (Tough luck, kid.)

    Summary

    If he’d been smart, he would have disregarded the other organics and looked at BD-1, instead. Who brought him aboard the Mantis just a few hours after they met? Who’ll spend forty tedious minutes carefully working a pebble out of his hydraulics without damaging him? Who turns into a seasoned defense lawyer every time he’s accused of leaving oil stains on the upholstery? Who inexplicably files him under the ‘cute and cuddly’ category (and treats him as such) even though the droid is made of metal and wires and spite?

    Greez kicks himself later for not picking up on the obvious. Then he kindly forgives himself, because it’s been a rough week. Month. However long they’ve run themselves ragged after following the Inquisitors to Bracca and recruiting a Padawan-in-hiding who has a weakness for little droids… and, apparently, damn near everything else.

    Summary

    “How are you feeling?”

    He can’t find the words to answer. He can’t think. His tongue keeps sticking to the roof of his dry mouth and when he licks his lips, they’re cracked and taste like copper. “…tired,” he finally whispers. “Cold…?” The race back to the Mantis kept him from feeling the chill, but once he collapsed into the copilot’s seat, he’d found himself shivering uncontrollably. Now his hands are still. He closes his eyes again, sinking back into the water, fading away. Maybe he never got out at all – maybe he’s freezing to death in that cave and this is his dying brain hallucinating a peaceful end. Will Cere and Greez come looking if he never makes it to the ship? They shouldn’t, it’s not safe with the Empire around, but he doesn’t want to be left there like a discarded piece of debris for some stormtrooper to fish out and throw in the trash.

     

    (traversing the tundra of Ilum while soaking wet and wearing inadequate cold-weather gear has predictable consequences.)

    Summary

    "Kid," Greez grinds out, trying to settle on one of the many emotions he's experiencing right now, "'No one has ever been 'lightly stabbed.' There ain't a ranking system for stabbing. Either you've been stabbed, or you haven't! And you have been stabbed!"

    "This isn't even one of my top five stab wounds."

    --

    Greez needs a drink. Cal probably does, too.
