On the city-planet of Elsul, a Sith sits outside a cafe sipping a fruity drink. She's guarded by a heavy battle droid (gathering more than a few startled stares from passerby, which the Sith and the droid both ignore) and accompanied by a servant droid covered in enameled flowers, who's scrolling through a list of local tourist attractions on a datapad and occasionally presenting options to her companions for discussion.
Kalbetis flows into the room, ever so slightly reassured by Daisy's gesture - and moreso by the introduction. 'Lord Pradnakt's friend' given pride of place...
That is good.
(Elcie slips in just slightly behind Darth Kalbetis, while most eyes are still on her.)
...See, this is what Sith are supposed to act like, not... Having cordial conversations over breakfast!
...Oh, no, absolutely not, that look is right out. "...You may be surprised to hear, Knight Chion, that I am also a person, but I can assure you the rumor is true."
"And, yes, of course I said that for a reason - but my desire to avoid reinforcing the idea of any random Sith's interiority being necessarily encompassed by their public image, for the sake of my stress levels, has nothing to do with how understanding your enemies will make you a better Jedi and you were looking for a reason to stop trying in me."
"...Believe it or not, I hate this blasted war more than anything else, except probably slavers - though I sha'n't say more on the subject or its potential relevance."
...If you think about it for five seconds you too could figure out why surrendering a piece of quite possibly strategic intelligence over - what, morale concerns? - would be a horrible idea, Kypora!
Let's not have an argument in front of the Darth, even if it's mostly pointed looks, how does that sound?
Pradnakt comes out of her room at this point, anyway; Daisy crosses the lounge to stand with her. She looks between the Jedi in a bland acknowledgement that she's interrupting, but directs her question at Kalbetis: "Are we ready to go?"
Off they go, then.
"I'm going to want to stay in the group meditation for a few minutes when we're done today; there's something I want to show you all. And, Master Ries, there's also something I'd like to show you privately afterward."
(Daisy, meanwhile, is quietly discussing the state of the Cloak's supplies with Elcie.)
"...We will discuss how or if you will discuss how you learned anything Lord Pradnakt wishes to show you, before you leave. This theoretically including the healing as well, but I do believe you aren't idiots."
"Indeed. If we rescued Padawan Vidarra on our own, as I suspect you'd prefer the claim to be, then clearly we must have figured out the technique necessary from the exigencies of the situation and thanked the Force it wasn't Dark but merely grey, yes?"
Master Ries meets her eyes and shakes his head briefly; he'll take credit for coming up with the idea even if Knight Bani must take some credit for the execution.
