Girl Talk (Jairdain)

[Asajj Novar]

"I don't think you'll hurt me. It's more of.. The fact that you can, even now. I'm too weak." She mumbled out, looking up to [member="Jairdain"] for a moment before looking back down at her food again. Now she made the evening awkward. Asajj couldn't keep doing things like that. Not if she wanted to move on with her life. After another bite the Dathomir cleared her throat, idly playing with a piece of food before her.

"Can you.. Uh.. Help me get stronger?"

 

[Jairdain]

It was good Asajj didn't think she would hurt her and the statement was met with a small smile. Taking in more of her food, Jairdain listened to the question asked and pointed her fork at the girl.

"What makes you think you are not already strong?"

Asajj waved the stump of her arm, laughing darkly at it. She let out a frustrated sigh as she lowered the nub, staring down at the food again. "I couldn't defend myself. I got caught, got broken. I don't want that again." The Dathomir was done eating at this point, just poking at the food [member="Jairdain"] had made for them with some interest. It tasted good at least, she just lost her appetite.

"You and I are quite similar then, Asajj and you are just as strong as I am."

There were times even now when Jairdain could project something stronger than how she really felt. So while she was on the verge of a breakdown of her own, she needed to be strong for this other woman. And she was.

"Look at me. Take the Force away and I'm helpless...a simple, blind human. I was caught, more than once and broken by your father after a great amount of time. I don't want it again either. It might seem like I am strong, but even I have weaknesses. We all do. I will do my best though to make you stronger where I can."

Pointing at her head, she indicated her mental fortitude.
