And she returns to the ship.

"Well?"

"He signed it after I danced for him and he kissed my cheek. I have no idea why he's even interested in females of a completely different species, but well, no accounting for taste."

"Typical for Hutts. No complications?"

"Other than having to pretend I had a lovely time dancing for him, no, not really."

"Good."

"What are our next steps?"

"Confirm that the Group is moving, finalize the arrangement with Pyron, then leave Nar Shaddaa before the Cipher's deceptions catch up with us."

"Can I help with anything?"

"Your aid so far will suffice. We should return to your training."

"Okay."

More lightsaber sparring.

That part she was already practising as a Jedi, she's decent and improving at it.

Occlus is always half a step ahead of her, with some hitherto-unseen trick or flourish.

This is fun, and she laughs when Occlus does a new thing and starts expecting it.

She never does the same thing twice in a row, but she does bring it back until Rafa can consistently counter it.

Rafa is a fast learner and is having so much fun.

"Good. That's all for now. Be sure your studies with the blaster do not fall behind. I will be sending you another set of glyphs to translate; inform me when you have done so."

"Yes, ma'am."

She interprets this as a dismissal and goes off to study something interesting.

She's not interrupted from doing so.

When she gets the glyphs she sets to translating them.

The translation is fiendishly complex, and highly context-dependent.

...she's not super good at this. She does her best but languages are definitely not her forte.

As long as she's not giving up.

Excuse her, narration, but have you met her.

She does not give up.
