"It's an obscure technique. Likely, even if we could find one he wouldn't be that much better at healing it than Dusk."

"...Create a Force user?"

"Sith can't heal. Jedi can, but -"

Unsafe. Wait.

"I'm not going to create someone..." Felix says quietly. "Let's wait."

Nod.

I'm okay - she flutters her good hand and Daisy translates: "It's tricky to explain, some technical Force thing." (She nods again.) "If she says she'll recover I expect she knows what she's talking about, but," they exchange some subtle body language - "we should leave her alone to do it."

"Of course. Get well soon, Dusk."

Daisy takes up Nine's spot by the bed, and Dusk is asleep again before they've left the room.

And they wait until Dusk gets better.

It's slow going. Daisy's reports - still delivered by Green - are a little more detailed than Nine's were; the Sith damaged Dusk's connection to the Force, which is interfering with much more than her ability to heal, but she's recovering it little by little, day by day: her hearing comes back, and her ability to eat, and her ability to sense where people are around her, and a few days before the planned announcement to the ex-slaves, nearly two weeks after the attack, her arm shows the first signs of improvement.

Is this a good time for a kolto tank? They can probably delay the announcement.

Yeah. Dusk isn't enthusiastic about the idea, still, but yeah.

Well, Felix at least tells the slaves about the Sith attack. Dusk is down for the next while but they managed to fend off the three Siths.

That's kind of terrifying!

It kinda is! But they managed to dispatch them rather quick.

...are they expected to, like.... do... anything.... if this happens again?

They are not! Except maybe hide and get away from the danger.

Okay.

One of the managers suggests that they have drills; everybody else seems to approve of the idea.

(Well, the drills are likely to be different once they can set up pocket dimensions. But it's not a bad idea.)

Sure, they can have drills.

...she will stay and work out with him what they should involve, if there's nothing else to announce right now?

They don't have anything else to announce right now and Felix is happy to discuss details.

She stays behind to do that. She seems to be assuming he'll take the lead.

Felix takes her to his office where they can start sketch out the details of a drill.

She seems familiar with the process, though she's hesitant at first about offering corrections.

"Can I ask how much of a - reprieve - we'll be getting?" she asks, as they're wrapping up.

He encourages corrections.

"Reprieve?"
