<div class="floatleft">(https://i.imgur.com/tZvZhHV.jpg)</div><br/><strong>Name:</strong>Ayami-Jahna Terkana ("AJ") (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=277640.msg13647905#msg13647905)<br/><br/><strong>Species:</strong>Zeltron<br/><br/><strong>Profession:</strong>Between Jobs / Exotic Dancer<br/><br/><strong>Location|Date:</strong>Day 145 3BBY, Open air market<br/><br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Yig, Therion, Tyron, plus anyone who might be hanging out in the market.<br/><br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 0.7em;">"Who's the monster here."</span>, AJ said silently, so that only Yig could hear. All this made her appreciate her luck more, when she was in a similar situation as the poor wookie. She was aware of course that slavery would not simply go away because she said so, but what little she could do, she could do. She was still holding Yig's hand and now she gave it a soft squeeze, to reassure her, before she let go.<br/><br/>When the captain named his price, AJ blinked at him for a second, then she giggled. "You must be joking.", she said with a big grin, knowing that her pheromones would be doing their thing on the captain currently. "Look, I like you. I don't want you to suffer unnecessarily. I'll give you...", she looked back at the wookie, "Five. Five thousand that is. That is a good price, and you won't have to pay any commissions or worry about her getting away. That would be my problem or rather the problem of those who pay me then." This was a blatant lie, but AJ felt that it could not hurt to make the pirates think there was some powerful entity behind this offer. She hoped they would be thinking that it's better to have five thousand credits than to sleep with the fishes, so to speak.<br/><br/>That was when Therion entered the scene, which gave AJ a little shock but she managed to hide it. She had avoided him before, but now he was obviously here to help. That was surprising, but he must have heard her claim of men in the crowd from before, which meant he wanted her to play along. She couldn't feel any falseness from him, not now at least, so she did just that. "Thank you, Therion.", she said, giving him a nod and a smile.<br/><br/>It could never hurt to have actual backup present, and there was to be more, as Tyron walked up, apologizing for being late. AJ gave him a smile as well as he got the attention of the pirates on himself. She made sure to whisper to the wookie while the pirates were distracted:<span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 8pt;">"Don't run. This is an asteroid."</span>, before she turned and looked at Tyron, giving him a little playful wink. "I'm glad you finally made it.", she said, with slight criticism tainting her voice. She wondered if the pirates would need new underwear by the time this thing was over due to the two imposing men who had just shown up. "So, what do you say, Captain? Do you take my offer?", she asked.
