Star Wars: Capital Consipracy (Kuragari)

[jondude]

Luckily for you the universe decides to afford you a couple hours of peace. You manage to get back to your room and eat your food and get a breather in, trying to put together all the jumbled info your head into something that makes a little sense, and while you do find some success currently you were still missing too much information to put the whole story together. All you did know for sure however was that Tarso wanted you and your sister and that was somehow important to get even with some unknown togrutan. The other thing you knew was that your sister was still missing, she had also evaded Tarso's goons and had escaped the attack at the landing pad and escaped with someone else. Probably this Holly Magnolia given that she was waiting to receive your goods, but maybe this togrutan? Maybe the mystery Togrutan and Holly were the same person?

Anyway, once your done your food and have taken a moment to think you head back to the starport and to the Imperial station the officer had given you a card for. Two storm troopers stand out front, but other then a slight turn of the helmet to assess you don't react as you walk inside. Inside you see two human officers clad in the typical black uniforms of Empire, and head to one, asking about your ship. "Ah yes. Dealing with that shootout at bay 49-D. Awkward thing to happen when you're away from your ship. Lieutenant Axo has been waiting you. Please, go down the left hall and to the second room on the right.", the clerk says.

Following the instructions you soon find yourself at that original officer's office. It's not huge or fancy, but it does have a decent overview of a small wing of the starport where one could watch ships come and go. "Ah, Miss Cassidy. You'll be pleased to know your ship has been initially swept for now, and you can go back under supervision to retrieve some affects. You might be pleased to know that the cargo seems to be intact, and of course, perfectly legal. Unfortunately though pending the conclusion of the investigation your ship will have to stay impounded for now. I'm sure you understand.", the officer, Lieutenant Axo apparently, says.

[Kuragari]

Cassidy very much wished she was aboard their ship. If she was, she was sure there might be a bit more she could piece together. At the very least, she could try to see if there had been a visual communication between Madeline and their contact, the Holly Magnolia lady. Then she'd at least know if they were one and the same. A part of her remains somewhat surprise she's not having much trouble with Imperials, given all the things she usually heard about them out on the rim. Especially among non-humans. Maybe she was getting the lucky card with them? Or maybe so long as she wasn't causing them trouble, they just didn't care.

Reaching the office for the Lt. Axo, she smiles and gives him a nod in thanks. "That's good to hear. I can do that in a little bit. It'll give me a chance to try and see if I can learn anything more about who my sister had agreed to carry the cargo for. However, I did wind up learning a bit about what happened, and wanted to ask if you knew anything about a Tarso the Hutt? Some of his goons came to try and kidnap me, and I learned from them it was some thugs of his were involved in the shootout in the hangar."

[jondude]

"Plenty, really.", Lieutenant Axo says when you ask about Tarso. "Chiefly that despite being such a large and unsightly alien, he certainly is a hard person to locate. Probably has more criminal charges to him alone then all his cronies combined too.", he adds. When you mention that he had sent some goons to come abduct you and that he was involved somehow in the hanger shootout he makes a short humming noise, then folds his hands together as if to think. He gives an long stare then, clearly curious about what might connect you and your sister to a criminal king pin. "Is that so? How unfortunate. I am glad you've managed to thwart them. Can you tell me anything about these attackers of yours perhaps? Any thug of Tarso's we can remove from the streets is nothing but good after all.", he then asks.

As he finishes asking his question he narrows his eyes a little, his stare almost piercing. He takes on a calculating look, and you're reminded while he may not be hostile right now he was still Empire. You were already on legally murky ground alone just by possessing a lightsaber, though with the Jedi long gone you were somewhat fortunate that barely anyone could recognize one. Still, being Empire did not necessarily make one bad either... quite the conundrum.

Despite your admitted lack of social skills, even you can recognize you've entered a small game of give and take with the Imperial Lieutenant. You could trade information on your assailants, and hopefully learn a little more about Tarso in return. However, you would have to do your best to avoid information that might tie you or your sister to Tarso, which in theory should be easy since as far as you were concerned you didn't have any at all! Not that you knew of anyway. But since you had revealed Tarso wanted you and Madeline he might be suspicious that there might be some high end smuggling deal happening, which wasn't the case...

...right?

Gimme a dice roll!

[Kuragari]

Tarso having that much criminality to him wasn't surprising. As he gives his long stare, Cassidy sighs and says, "I don't think he was after the cargo... I think he was after us. We're both exotic, so..." She shivers a bit, not wanting to elaborate further. And figuring the Imperial probably doesn't need any help getting the drift on that." She nods and shares all she can, not feeling like there was much she could share that could be a problem in this instance for her or her sister. She can't exactly hide the fact she has a lightsaber, having used it quite visibly in the fight, but she also has no real beef with the Empire.

Hopefully, with what she shares, she might be able to get some information she can use to try and track her sister down. Or find Tarso so she could try to deal with him and get him off their backs.

"Hmm... I do suppose that is true. I've seen just about most aliens the galaxy has to offer at this point be you're certainly a new one. A bit of a breath of fresh air if anything, what with you having the correct amount of arms and legs and all.", he says. A certainly xenophobic remark, but at least not one aimed at you.

In any case, while the Lieutenant's suspicions were certainly something to be cautious of, as far as you knew there was no evidence to tie you or your sister to any illicit activities involving Tarso. If there was, you'd probably be having this conversation from a prison cell. You decide to share what you know of the thugs, since you can't possibly see how such could harm you, and up giving a description of the various attackers and the attack, the Lieutenant nodding along and taking some notes. "These ungrilans sound like Ortegras thugs to me. If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say the rodian man you described was probably either a recruiter or a simple middle man trying to get Tarso's dirty work done. A shallow connection, but one to be explored nonetheless. I'll see if I can round up a random Ortegras goon to question. Certainly enough of them working at the starport with minor charges that dragging one in here should be easy. Given the size of the gang though, it likely won't yield much...

"I'd definitely urge caution in the future however miss Cassidy. The Ortegras are tight-knit if simple group. They might feel slighted just by the fact you fought back and might have it out for you.", Lieutenant Axo then warns, before pressing a button on his desk. A small holographic projection springs up showing a what appears to be symbol or marking. A yellow flag, with red, blue and green colored planet and what appears to be two Rancor's arm wrestling of all things. "This is symbol the Ortegras use, and will usually have a patch or a pin or some version of it on their person somewhere. Sometimes it can be as simplified as a yellow square or bandanna, so if you see a bunch of people around with such iconography and paying attention to you, do your best to exit the situation as quickly as possible.", he says.

That was good info to know at least, but you can't help but notice he seems to avoiding the issue of Tarso a little. While you might not exactly be the most skilled conversationalist compared to your sister, maybe you could try using your... exotic allure to pry a little more out of the man?

[Kuragari]

As much as a part of her wants to make a comment about his speciest remark, another part of her can't say she doesn't understand the feeling. She and Madeline had encountered some pretty unusual aliens in their travels thus far. Still, the fact she's been allowed to roam freely helps her to feel less like she and her sister got caught up in something super duper shady. There's a chance it is still shady in some capacity, but if Cassidy was to hazard a guess, it was just barely on the right side of the law.

She feels a brief pang of sympathy for whatever poor sod is going to get dragged in for questioning. Its short lived when she remembers the trouble they caused. Still, as Lt. Axo shares the information on the gang with her, she absorbs it like a sponge. She has a feeling she'll need to keep such in mind.

When she notices his avoidance of Tarso himself, her first thought is to worry he might be tied to him. But then, if that was the case, couldn't he have just slapped cuffs on her and called it a day before handing her over to the slug? So perhaps there was some other reason. Figuring it can't hurt to try and see if there was something else, even as her cheeks began to grow flushed at the thought of even trying, she decided to give him her best alluring smile as she leaned forward on his desk. Her chest sticking out a bit more as she said, (17)

"Surely a man of your skill and talent knows a bit more that you can share. Something that can help a breath of fresh air like myself make sure she doesn't wind up in the hands of some disgusting slug?" Her blush deepened as she found herself thinking of what else her sister might do, and added with a purr, "I'm sure I could think of a way to show my appreciation to such an upstanding officer as yourself~"

[jondude]

With you normally leaving the social stuff to Madeline you feel a little self conscious about playing the damsel so to speak. Still you've seen her and plenty of other pretty girls apply their charms before, so you think you at least have a decent grasp of the core concepts. You puff up your chest a bit, smile, lean forward, and with your best flirtatious tone shoot your shot to try and Make Lt. Axo open up to you.

And boy, does it ever seem to work immediately. The lieutenant seems to ever so slightly jerk as if caught off guard, eyes widening a touch. In response he seems to stand a little straighter, his own chest puffing up slightly on instinct to make himself appear larger and more appealing. Seems like you were better at this then you gave yourself credit for!

"Well! Well I- uh...", Lt. Axo seems to stammer for a moment, eyes flicking up and down your salacious form. He clears his throat though and gets some decorum back. "It's true that such a thing would be a travesty. While like most hutts Tarso has his hands in a little bit of everything, his main profit business being based of Coruscant are drugs and slave trafficking. We don't like to stress the public so the overall odds are very low, but he does have... collectors that snatch up those he wants or deems desirable outside of many starports on the planet. He normally engages with several gangs all over to do the direct dirty work and maintain some deniability, such as with the Ortegras, but he also has his own private goon squads for those he particularly wants...", he explains.

Useful info! Perhaps you could bait one of these squads and use them to find out Tarso's location, among other things? A bit of a risky notion. However, it's quite clear there is more information that Lt Axo knows. If you press your advantage a little further, who knows what the good lieutenant might spill? Maybe he can point you to suspected locations of Tarso various businesses and can avoid having to bait a squad all together, should you even want to do that that is.

[Kuragari]

Maybe that bar owner wasn't too wrong after all... Cassidy can't help but think as her ploy works, rather well in fact. Her own blush increases, and she feels a strange thrill run up and down her spine. A part of her tries to come up with some other reason why it'd have worked so well, but in this instance with it working so well, that half of her mind doesn't have much luck. On a different note, its slightly cute to see an Imperial of all people so easily flustered and that official decorum slipping away if only for a moment.

Still, she listens carefully as he begins to share what he knows. So, she needs to keep an eye out for any group of gangsters that appear to be following her. And on top of that, keep an eye out for, most likely, rougher and tougher looking goons. If Tarso very much wanted herself and Madeline as slaves, or just as some sort of weird collectors item with how exotic they were... yeah, she didn't doubt he'd make use of his private goons if the cheaper thugs didn't work out for long. Which she had no intention of letting them nab her if she could help it.

As much as a part of her wants to needle for more information... she isn't quite so confident, even by her apparent success here. That said, she also views herself as being the sort to carry out her promises, even if she hadn't technically yet done so. Or maybe her little bit of success had sparked a bit of a mood in herself.

"Hmm, well, that'll be a big help Lt. I'll be sure to keep my eyes and ear out, but first..." She offers her own salacious smile as she asks, "Does the Lt. have any preferences for how this breath of fresh air can repay him for his kindness~?"

[jondude]

Seeing the Imperial Lieutenant suddenly get so flustered by your flirtatious approach, you get a bit of a thrill run through you. An adrenaline spike similar to what you might get during combat, but also... different... more relaxed perhaps, but yet somehow thrilling all the same. Beauty was it's own form of intimidation it would seem, and while you weren't the most experienced at using it, perhaps once you were reunited with Madeline she might be able to show you a little more?

In any case, you press your advantage, the events of the last few hours making you feel a little adventurous. When you ask Lt. Axo what you might do to repay his kindness the man looks a little unsure of himself for a few moments, mouth opening and closing a few times though no words come out. It seems every time you say something his brain needs a few extra moments to process, as if a lot of blood was perhaps heading somewhere else? "Well, uh.", he manages to say, a hand coming up to pull at his collar before he manages to figure out his words again. "Well, I do admit I find you a little fascinating miss Cassidy, and this position can be a bit... aloof. Would you be opposed to a bit of... candid discussion?", he asks.

Your blush remains hot, but your mood is still more then a little adventurous. You find yourself nodding that he can speak his mind.

"I'd very much like see you... all of you.", he then says, his cheeks a hot pink of their own.

[Kuragari]

Was this how Madeline felt most of the time? Given that it sometimes felt like she was flirting with everyone, even when she wasn't trying... Then again, if this was what it felt like, she could understand a bit why her sister acted so. It still felt a bit weird and out of character for Cassidy... but maybe this experience would change her mind just a bit. Doubtless, it would depend on exactly on how things play out. She smiles and nods at the Lt. as he asks such in what she can only think of as a very bureaucratic manner...

Then she blushes more, doubtless enough to be noticable even through her fur. Still, she hums in consideration. While it was possible it'd go further than that, just asking to see her naked seemed a mite tame, and less then she had been expecting.

"Then see all of me you shall~" She replies with a smile, starting to run her hands over her own form as she starts with the simple stuff, her cloak and belt, which she simply allows to slip to the floor. The wrappings around her wrists follow, and then...

Then, with another shiver of excitement of her own, she begins to slowly, and as sensually as she can, strip herself out of her form fitting jumpsuit. Once even it has slipped onto the floor, she makes a show of letting her hands wander back up over her body. Her thighs, hips, her stomach... stopping only at her chest as she cups them softly and hums a bit before asking with a purr,

"Do you like what you see, Lt~?"

I did a roll and got a 23

[jondude]

Slowly stripping you down, a sudden shot of excitement fills you as you take in Lt. Axo's reactions to your teasing. You move slow and deliberately, using your feline like grace and dancing from foot to foot, doing a slow spin as you slip off your cloak. Within moments it seems the Imperial officer is leaning in, eyes wide and twinkling with barely constrained desire as you take more and more off. Soon you're down to just the skin hugging jumpsuit, and as you begin to tug that off you have it snap briefly on your curves, making an illusion that your assests, while already very impressive, were a little bigger then they already where with some simple manipulations. When even your suit puddles to the floor, revealing all of you in your sultry soft glory, you make a show of running your hands over body. It seems that is about as much as Lt. Axo can take though as he springs up from behind his desk as if struck by lightning. You can see the obvious tent in his pants, and he makes to attempt no hide it.

"You are probably the most glorious woman I have ever seen.", he then states, eyes roaming up and down your figure, but seemingly getting caught at your tits as you make a show of cupping them. He then practically tears off his uniform top, casting it aside before walking around his desk and closing the distance with you. Hungrily he reaches out and pulls you in close for a kiss, but rather then go for your lips he goes for your neck first, kissing it enthusiastically as one of his hands reaches down and grabs at your well padded ass. It seems things were escalating rather rapidly!

[Kuragari]

Things were escalating quickly, but rather then be frightened or freaked out, Cassidy felt... Well, okay, she was anxious. Maybe a little worried. But the thrill from this little performance and the knowledge she of all people had had such an effect on him seemed to be doing a number on her as well. As he practically flung off his own uniform and came over to her, she stiffened only briefly before letting out a soft gasp, and then, a purring moan as he groped her ass and then kissed at her neck. She shivered, and her body almost seemed to shift on instinct as she bared her neck more and pressed herself against his own body. Her tail hiked up a bit as her heart began to race.

"A~Ah, th~thank you, L~Lt." She manages to gasp out, her own eyes becoming a bit lidded as she glances down at him. "Th~That's not something I~I'm used to hearing anyone say..."

Well, her sister liked to say stuff like that. But Cassidy always tended to think she was doing so because she was her big sister.

[jondude]

"I almost find that hard to believe miss Cassidy.", Lt. Axo says as you confess your not used to people calling you attractive. "You have an allure that not even the most buxom Twi'lek dancers can compete with.", he then adds, before going back to kissing hungrily at your neck. Before you can think of a reply though he begins to lower himself, kissing down your collar bone and toward your breasts. While they might not be as big as your sisters they certainly weren't small either, your ladies quite perky despite their delightful squishy softness. He seems to nuzzle them for a second, sighing even as he takes in the silky sensation of your downy like fur, his hands continuing to grab at your ass. A moment later though and you get a sudden zip of pleasure when his warm mouth captures one of your stiff nipples, giving it a firm suck while one of his hands leaves your butt to come and gently knead at your other breast.

He does this for a few minutes still, seeming to enjoy the cute little mewls and noises you make, but after that he seems to go further still, kissing a little trail down your flat and trim stomach as he gets on his knees. His target seems obvious, but despite knowing this your heart begins to race a little. Soon he is kissing at your thigh, then the other, then he leans in, and plants a warm firm kiss right on your clit, the sensation eclipsing all the other sensations you've experienced thus far as a lightning bolt of euphoric excitement zaps through your nerves.

[Kuragari]

She tried to assert that it was true, but she was quickly distracted by the way he was playing with her body. The thrill at his compliment also making her blush shyly and her tail hike a bit higher even as she gasped and moaned under his ministrations. She wondered if perhaps her sister hadn't been just telling her such things to make her feel better, and thought back to what the owner of that bar had said about her.

Then of course, she was focused back on the now. She gasped, back arching, her folds dampening even further as he kissed at her clit. Her nectar was now flowing freely, where before it had been a very slow but steadily growing bubbling. She panted, her hand atop Lt. Axo's head as she massaged at his scalp and purred in delight. She wasn't a virgin by any means, but it had been a long time since she had felt the touch of another... and that had been more just her trying to lose her v-card than anything.

"M~More, please~ Th~That felt... goood~"
