here without you
Efret's X-wing touched down lightly onto the hangar bay's floor. As the canopy opened towards the ceiling on its hydraulic arms, Nirrah hopped from the dashboard and fluttered onto the fighter's long nose. "I know, me too," she commented to the convor. Space travel was taxing on Efret's body too. By the end of just about any hyperspace or real space or even atmosphere flight, she was ready for a good stretch. One of the only good lessons she remembered being taught by her first master and still abided by was that one should spend at minimum twice their travel time at a destination.
It was best for the body to give it ample time to recover from flying, especially if one chose to confine themselves to the cockpit of an X-wing.
Efret undid her seatbelts and pushed herself upwards, swinging her legs onto the hull and sliding off the starfighter's frame. She landed on the ground with bent legs, springing up easily, and turned to walk to the droid socket behind the canopy's hinge. Her astromech Tewy whirled his head around to look at her. Efret stood up on her tiptoes to press a button in the shape of an downturned isosceles triangle which lit up red. An internal elevator began to lower him to the ground. "Enjoy the new surroundings, but please stay in the Temple."
She turned to Nirrah. "Find Noah." Her request was more for Nirrah's good than it was for her own. After all, Nirrah needed more than a little hop and flutter to stretch properly. "You remember what he looks like, don't you?" An image of his face came to mind but not of her own volition. She smiled, her eyes squinting a bit. "That's right."
And with that, Nirrah took off to find Noah wherever he was in the hallways or open spaces of Vatsu Temple.
