Larrine took one look at the man standing on the ramp, and felt her lip curl. Her mind flitted over the various tales she had heard of the mindless ferocity of Tatooine's Sand People, or Tusken Raiders. Not exactly bundles of joy, in other words.
She continued forward until she reached him, about a foot away. Without looking at it, she spoke to the droid. "Do you know this thing's language?"
'Oh yes.' the 3PO unit responding. 'I am programmed with over...'
"Yeah, yeah. Well, tell this thing who I am, where he is, and ask him what he wnts." Larrine saidgrumpily. The droid complied.

((Note: Droid series referred to is a 3PO series protocol droid, C-3PO is a unique designation for a single droid. However they don't exist in this period. Though minor I just thought I'd note. Don't bother changing it.))
Well he wasn't shot yet, this was a good sign. This new Outlander looked especially displeased however, and talked sharply to the mechanical one. It responded by talking directly to Xaojii. "You speak my language?! I've met another who did much like yourself but gave me the impression that it was rare and wasn't sure it would work." Xaojii exclaimed, his voice to bystanders nothing more than incomperable grunts, hisses, and howls. He looked over at Larrine. "I was hoping to get aboard without being noticed and continue on my plan to learn as much about Outlanders as possible." He hoped his request would be taken well.

((OOC: 3,000 years before Yavin is such a difficult time period. XD ))
Larrine listened as the droid translated. She nodded in understanding. "Ask him if he has any skills. I might have use for him." she said, a grin lurking at the corners of her mouth.

((It is quite a double edged sword. It all depends on how you use it.))
Xaojii nodded as the droid expressed her thoughts. If there was a face behind the mask of rags, was deep with concentration at how this Outlander acted. When the droid was finished, he nodded. "I am a skilled marksman from where I come from, one of the best in my tribe. I've been using both this rifle and my stick for my entire life. I am also excellent at foraging, especially back home." Xaojii pointed at both his rifle, snugly wrapped in a cloth sling on his back and the gaderffii, hidden underneath a part of his cloak. "I was going to get off wherever you next landed at and then find a group more willing to have me on a permanent basis, but if you are willing then I can stay with you in exchange for my skills." He said in the same incomprehensible language of droning barks.

Larrine nodded as the droid translated. "Good. Take him to...someplace to sleep," Preferably a far way from my quarters "and get him some food." with that, she turned and went back inside, not pausing to glance at Dix or the human.
((What should I do about Dave? He hasn't come back...))

((Ditch him, assume that his character joined up, but won't be participating in PC events. If he comes back, he can make more active roles. We can move if we're not waiting for anyone else, get on with the Consortium thing or whatever was up next.))
Xaojii nodded as the droid translated, and followed it up the ramp. Later inside the ship, the droid walked him through all the basics of life aboard the ship, where everything was at and so on. His quarters were arranged, though severely lacked what Xaojii was used to growing up. Food was provided for him but nobody saw him eat it, he spent the majority of the rest of the evening in his newly acquired living space.

A scared Rodian ran in front of the docked ship, trying to hide it seems. In the distance a clank of metallic sounding foot steps could be heard.
"Jesting Statement: I spy, with my little visual receptor.. something begining with I" HK-32 almost jesting with his target. The rodian stupidly asks.
"What starts with "I"?"
"Explanation:I, is the term commonly used when explaining your intended actions against another individual." HK-32 after hearing the rodian aims his blaster rifle in his general direction.
"Example: I, am going to kill you." HK-32 fired on full auto in the direction of the rodian, a high pitch scream could be heard.
HK-32 looks up at the cockpit of the docked ship, he saw shadows of figures before waving his hand slightly.
"Mockery: Nothing to see here citizen..move along..move along"

Larrine raised an eyebrow at the droid. "Really? I assume you're going to pay for the blood you just splattered all over my ship." the sentence wasn't a question. It was a statement.

"Mockery: Meatbags.. all the same... "give me credits this..give me credits that *Sigh* Thank the Droid makers in the sky i don't strive for such puny things in life." HK reloads his blaster rifle then attaches it to a holster on his back.
"Question: Do you not think it gives off the vibe that you should not be approached or attacked?" HK ponders for a moment.. "The dark red stain, i have always found, scares alot of you meatbag kind." Then HK wipes some of the blood off of his armour.
"Addendum: Still of course, It IS hardly noticeable. A job for one of those bucket of bolts astro mech droids... beep beep wooo...*ergh*" HK shook his head.
"Probing Question: Oh, By the way..as i am here..Would you like anything killed? I am rather good at it."

Larrine's smile grew just a bit more mocking as the droid asked if she needed someone killed. "Who doesn't?" she queried noncommitally.

HK-32's head tilted slightly.
"Answer: Those pseudo pacifists that plague the galaxy, typically those who call them selves jedi" fairly lacklustre in resolve and conviction i have found. They sit in there tower in coruscant and like to translate alien dialect .. or so i am lead to believe by sentien meatbags."
HK then followed his answer by scratching at a tiny bit of rust on his head.

Larrine laughed. "True. But even they sometimes have people they'd rather havedead." she pondered a momen. "How soon can you be ready to go?" she asked.

HK-32 took out his rifle and with out even looking, he shot the rodian in the head to make sure he was dead. "Statement: I am ready!" HK-32 walked up the ramp onto the ship. ((sorry it is short..i got writers block ))

Larrine smiled. "Beautiful. Dix?! Get this droid fixed up somewhere will you?" Dix came to the door, and jerked his head towards the interior.

HK-32 looked at this Dix character and came to his own judgement which he would keep to himself.
"Statement: By the jerking of your head and body i estimate that 98% of your motives were to point me where to go and the other 2% is that you are having a cardiac arrest and need to be shot...ever the oppurtunist i might add."
HK-32 finally came to a spot where he felt most comfortable, well as comfortable as droids can be.
"Statement: oh meatbag sentiant aliased as Dix"... i would like to inform you that in our travels if you could find a more up to date targetting system.. i would be most grateful..this one i have is almost 200 human years old.""

Dix nodded companiably,and showed his spiky teeth in a grin. "Will do. Now f you don't mind..."
Larrine came up behind him. "Thank you Dix. Go help Fell get us air-borne, I'll give him the pep-talk." she said, pointing him towards the cockpit. Dix complied, and Larrine turned to the droid.
"Hello. I'm your new Captain, Larrine Gibrenn. From this moment on, I am your boss. If you don't like it, tough. Believe me, I can find a lot bigger...droids...to take you out. And I wll, if I must. You may address me as Captain. Thank you, and enjoy the ride." she said with a sarcastic grin.

HK-32 looked to this captain for a few moments as if he was judging her and her threat levels.
"Statement: I am far older and wiser than you meatbag, a droids toughness is not measured in its size.. but in its programming. I am programmed to kill and mame and i have had many a master ranging from the exchange, to the hutts and even a senator." HK-32 paused for a few moments before looking back to the captain.
"Threats do not carry any head with a droid, we do not comprehend fear. I am programmed to be loyal and obey, until my master's life is ended.. droids live for a very long time you know."

Larrine shrugged. "Whatever. Here's the point. You do what I say, and no funny business. Understood?" her eyes were almost bored-looking, and her stance- arms folded, legs crossed, leaning against a bulkhead- underlined her boredom.

HK-32 looked around the ship before headed back to where the captain was situated.
"Statement: By your stance and use of vocabulary... i would come to the conclusion that you are suffering from boredom... captain... if it will make you feel any better... i served the hutts for little over 100 human standard years. standing in a building, on tatooine..for all those years... unfortunatley droids cannot self destruct so i could not take out my blaster rifle and "end it all" as those emotional types would."
He looked behind him for a moment.
"Warning: I would advise youy get that overgrown sentient meatbag to look at the hyperdrive engine. The sequencer is out of sync...ironically." HK-32 nodded to himself before standing absolutley still in a corner.

Larrine's smile faltered just a bit at the mention of the hyperdrive. "Don't speak to me about my hyperdrive. My hyperdrive is fine." Comparitively. a nagging voice at the back of her mind parroted. She shrugged. "It has a few special adjustments. But I'll take a look. If you need anything, don't hesitate to get it yourself." she said, then stepped away and strode towards the cockpit.
