Jinny raised her eyebrows at Mikron’s assessment of the mechanics teachers. Maybe once they were settled, she could ask her uncle to go back home and get some of her best work. She desperately wanted in that class. “Good to know – and you’re so lucky to have seen Luthor for real! I’ve only ever seen him on the internet. I guess he’s just as smart as they say.” She did not know what zero space fields, or a friction space generator were, and at this point was too afraid to ask. Research was in order.
When Mikron called Slade “one-eye” Jinny went very slightly pale. Her eyes darted back and forth between the two males. She knew the look of irritation on his face, and it was never a good thing. It meant trouble. That look meant laps around the training yard until her legs fell off. For once in her life, she desperately wished to be telepathic, to convey to her second father not to ruin this for her. Luckily, she didn’t have to. He seemed to have let the comment slide. For now anyway.
She knew he wouldn't be forgetting anytime soon.
“I’d love to go! So far everything is kind of normal. If it wasn’t for all the metahumans, I’d be sort of bored.” She smiled cheerily, and looked up at Slade. “I’ll see you later, okay?” Was this making a friend? Maybe so! Even if he was an older boy, he seemed very cool. Also they spoke the same mechanical language, which was great.
“Where are we going first?”

Kijani kept up the offensive, driving forward with as much speed as she could muster. Eskel’s guards fell at her feet, though she tried to leave them crippled but alive as much as possible. “Eskel! Prince Eskel! Shout if you can hear me!”
She had a burn on her arm from where she’d misdirected a blaster bolt. It had gone straight through the sleeve. Her heart hurt from all the destruction around her. And she was almost desperate to find Eskel alive. If he was dead, how would she explain it to his family?
Then again, he could be in on the whole thing. Though he seemed so kind and thoughtful, she wouldn’t put it past anyone. Someone from Eskel’s ship had to have informed the empire. Why not start at the top?
She ran through steel corridors, dropping guards with flashes of her golden saber. At one point, she was stuck at a crossroads, metal paths all around her and no indication of which was correct.
“...I am one with the Force. The Force is with me.” Kijani slid her eyes shut, trying to block out sounds of boot on metal, of blaster fire, and the roaring of one still pissed off beast outside.
Something in her said left, and so she went. The ship seemed to be getting fancier. Fine carpets, small sculptures and decorations. This had to be Eskel’s corridor. A sign on one of the doors confirmed as much, and she bolted forward, shoving the door open with a wave of power.
“Open fire!” Said one guard. They did, to very little impact. Kijani deflected bolt after bolt, getting closer.
“Bad idea.” Kijani darted forward, and in two quick slashes, both guards fell. She stood there, shaking for several moments, before coming out of it and kneeling to Eskel.
“Prince Eskel, it’s me. Hold still.” She removed the blindfold first. Then she started to search the guards for a key.

Jin landed on their butt for the second time today. If it even was still today. Soreness overtook their body as they got up. “Ugh. My poor ass.” They muttered under their breath, rubbing their aching backside. The three of them seemed to be unharmed, which was good enough. Jin had really thought they were going to die back there. Still, this could be out of the frying pan and into the fire, so their hackles were still raised.
The tiny demons showed up before Jin could speak. They were sort of cute, in a misshapen way. Like an ugly baby. One of them ran off saying something about “Gloriousness” in a way that made Jin very nervous for no discernible reason.
“I hate to even ask, but what fresh fuckery is this?” Jin looked to the two women, eyebrows raised, knowing they didn’t have answers but asking all the same. “Hey, you. Little thing.” Jin slowly approached the small demon, leaning down as if to talk to a child.
“Where are we, what are you, and who is Her Gloriousness?” Their dark eyes bore into the bulbous ones. “Answer in that order, please.”

You did an awesome job! I love the lore.
I'll get my character sheet as soon as I can find it.
EDIT: OMG I didn't catch the Queen because I was on mobile! I love her and will be posting up Jinayah shortly. Still looking for a picture though.
How do you feel about changing the Queen's name though? I looked up Fiona out of curiousity and it means "fair" or "White" which is... yeah.

Origami leapt high over the broken Badnik that had very nearly knocked her down. That had been far too close. The jump took her up to a sturdy branch, one she spun around to land neatly on top of it.
“Well, well. Rouge the Bat. If it isn’t the biggest waste of talent in the business.” She looked Rouge up and down, and then smirked. “All the drive, all the skill, and you waste it working for the government. Pity.” She tapped her chin, looking down at the robotic carnage below. “I didn’t expect to find you and Murderbot-3000 here, but perhaps I should have.”
She smiled, but there was a chilliness in her eyes. “Let me not be rude. I am Origami.” She swept a gallant bow. “I’m going to assume you’ve heard of me. As for what I’m doing here? Simply getting ahead of the competition.” She did not stop watching Rouge, that uncanny red stare boring deep. “It’s good to know my suspicions were on the mark. These bots don’t build themselves, do they? The Eggman lives.” For a few seconds, she watched Omega do his (it’s?) thing, then returned her attention to Rouge.
“Where’s the third one? Don’t you usually work as a team, or some nonsense?” Her eyebrows quirked up.

Kassandra, still elated from a stellar performance, slipped backstage to do some people watching. They were still on a mission, after all. As she was heading back, she saw a girl in a silvery bodysuit exiting a room and coming forward.
Time to get to work.
“Hey! The crowd is really lively tonight.” She kept a smile on her face. “Loving the costume, too. You look great.” She let out a very soft sigh. “If only there was a way to make more money doing this. I would love that. Applause is great but it doesn’t buy me nice things, you know?”
The Contortionist looked at Kassy and blinked a couple of times, batting her long black lashes. She really wasn't in the mood for small talk. Right now though Kassy was just annoying her.
"I know.." She said, sounding disinterested.
The dark haired girl attempted to push past Kassy and continue her way to the stage.
"Excuse you."
Kassy had dealt with rude people before. This would be no different. “They all said that you were the queen of this place. Now I see what they mean. Your… aura is just so different from the others. You’re really in control here, aren’t you?” She was simpering, just a touch. She had a feeling that this woman would enjoy it.
The sudden burst of flattery made the girl halt in her step and she turned around scrutinising Kassy. Her slit eyes were narrowed. What was she trying to get at here?
"I like things to go my way and being in control is the best way to do that"
The Contortionist despised women nearly as much as she did men, but there was a kinship between women even she wouldn't deny.
"You said you wanted to make more money. Promise someone something they really want, dangle it in front of their face and you can make them do anything"
She smirked. They were clearly in a completely different league.
"Smart girls don't have to work hard"
“That’s good advice. I know a few people who aren’t that bright. It’d be really easy to wrap them around my finger.” It was remarkably easy to lie. Kassy tossed her curls, smiling in a ruthless way. “Maybe one day, I’ll be as good as you.” This was going nowhere fast. This girl was clearly wrongheaded, but not Kobra-brand evil. Maybe she was tugging on the wrong line here.
Devika chucked softly, as she put the wooden tiles into a bag once the game was over. "It's not something you can play once and master, that's for sure. You did good. Although mom never pulls punches." Mara had gotten an early lead with the word 'exercise' and could not be caught. Now the night was nearly over. Their sleeping places - Devika's old room, and a spare guest room for Roxy - had been prepared.
"Well... I think I need some rest. It's been a long day." She needed to meditate and properly shake off the little vestiges of emotions that still clung. "I'll see you in the morning. If you need me, I'm just across the hall, ok?"

Kijani tried not to let her jaw drop. This was vital information, and Adam wasn't around to hear it. Before she could ask more questions, however, she too began to hear the engines. Drawn, she went to the window to hear the Imperial command, and yanked the curtains in a hurry.
"No, no, no... this is awful, how could they have found me?" Kijani whispered, her face wan with fear. "Master, I saw a lot of stormtroopers. I've gotten better with the saber, but there's no way I can fight them all by myself." Then she had an idea. One that could hopefully save them.
"Stay here and hide if you would, Master. I'm the one they want anyway. I'll go to find Prince's Eskel's ship. He has a security force, we could have a good chance of victory with some help!"
WIth that, Kijani snuck outside. Weeks of being on Dagobah made her steps light and quiet. She also knew exactly which places wouldn't hold her weight, and if they wouldn't manage her, no way could the ground hold up a stormtrooper in full armor. Already she could see a few of them struggling, their white uniforms being caught in the brown muck. That would be a good distraction. Time for another. After managing to sneak and travel around, she knew exactly where she was. Even here, the Stormtroopers were spreading like so many insects. Kijani reached out with the Force, tugging at the largest rock she could.
"What the-"
She dropped it right into the water, soaking the small squad of Stormtroopers in water and mud. And then a roar sounded as the Dragonsnake burst from it's watery lair.
"Oh crap, shoot it, shoot it!" As the shooting and roaring started, Kijani darted past behind the fray, making tracks for Eskel's vessel.
