She smiled at his comment about this being the best conversation he has had in years. trithfully it is one of her better conversations in weeks. With all her diplomatic courier missions with and without her master, conversations were a bit on the stuffy side. The only lively conversation she has before this was the string of very colorful metaphors uttered from a would be assassin that Kiani had the unkind pleasure of witnessing explode when she was forced to Force push him over a balcony to save the intended target and all the innocent bystanders.

The Dantari didn't want this conversation to end just yet. She was enjoying herself too much to let this little reprieve from the often hectic life she led to fade just yet. "This conversation doesn't have to end just yet.' She stated with brilliant smile. " I'm free for the rest of the day. I don't have to report back to training the younglings until tomorrow morning." She added.

She finished her food and eyed the desserts at the buffet. I friend who she hadn't seen in a long time now had introduced her to the sinfulness that was called chocolate. She eye a piece of triple chocolate molten cake. "Would you like to have some dessert and caf?" she asked.

"No, I suppose it doesn't," stated the Gurlanin with a smile.

It was true, the conversationhe was having with her was one of the most relieving and intriguing he'd had in a while, and he intended to keep it that way. He wondered if he should actually show her his true form, something only two people among the Jedi had seen, but the spy decided against it. There would be time for that later, and it was a rather personal matter to him, especially when everyone that had seen his real form was either dead, or wanted him dead and likely still did. Well, there was the Grand Master and the recruiter that had brought him to the order, but even they were suspicious of him from time to time.

The day they make me a master is the day I'm banging the Battle Master, he thought mischievously to himself. It was true, at least as far as he was concerned, that the only way he would be named a master is if he screwed his way into the position. Hell, he was happy as a padawan and if he was given the freedom of a Knight, even better. He smiled at the idea for a moment, but before he could elaborate on their previous conversation topics, she asked him if he would like to indulge in caf and dessert. The latter sounded nice enough, but Quinn had learned long ago that he and caf didn't mix very well. It made him jittery, messed with his aim, and oftentimes when he indulged in it he would shift randomly at a thought.

"Last time I had caf, I nearly gave myself breasts like yours," he stated initially without thinking. Instantly he felt mortified at what had justed been purged from his mind and thrust out his mouth. He had noticed her rather well-endowed body, but he had hoped he could refrain from mentioning it. With the cat out of thebag,he was unsure where the conversation would take them. Hopefully things would turn around, and fast, otherwise he would be left with nothing, not even the beginnings of a freidnship that had been blooming so beautifully.

"Umm... what I meant to say was that I don't drink caf," Quinn quickly noted as he slapped an apolegetic smile on his face. "Not that you don't... that you aren't pleasant looking. You're stellar, in fact."

Quinn sighed.

"Sorry... I'm usually more suave than this, and I don't want to ruin what we've let grow so far," he continued slowly as he finished off his food and stood. "But certainly, I'll take you up on that offer for dessert and drinks."

She tried very hard not to giggle at his comment when he made it, but his fumbling attempt at trying to recover from it was too much for her. She burst out with a laugh. So many of the men that she had met were so full of themselves when they tried to come on to here. It was very funny to see this man who was obviously attracted to her try not to be like them. "It's okay, Quinn, I know men like certain aspects of a woman's body. Truth be told the council had serious problems with me when i was younger because I frequently walked around half naked." She replied with a smile.

It was true in fact since she came from a race of people who rarely wore anything but loincloths. I took months of reprimands and an extreme crash course in galactic standards from a female Jedi Master before she started wearing more clothes than she preferred. Even now when not on assignment or instructing the younglings does she wear the full regalia of Jedi robes.

"So caf interferes with your shifting ability?" she asked quizzically. "Is it because it elevates your nervous system from the caffeine?" she quickly added another question. Kiani's curiosity was peaked by this man. He was different from the other Jedi she had interactions with. He seemed to be more carefree like her and relatively not bothered by the social norms that seemed to burden the other by the greater galactic society.

"And thank you by the way. I don't think I have had anyone comment that my looks were stellar." She comment with a impish smirk.

Though many have called her beautiful or pretty, it was usually a ruse to subvert her to some other end. At least with this one she got a general sense that he was being truthful to a certain degree. Kiani wasn't a naive young girl anymore not by any stretch of the imagination, but she had learned the hard way very few people will be totally honest. She sensed through her growing empathy that Quinn was indeed attracted to her, but there was an underlying sense of doubt also. Kiani wondered if it was because of how other people had treated him that made him doubt that she could even be interested in him as anything including a friend.

She got up and walked to the buffet and chose two pieces of the cake she had been eying and poured herself some caf with one sweetener with some cream. Then she poured a tall glass of blue milk for Quinn and set it all on a tray to take back to the table they were sharing.

The idea of Kiani in nothing but a two-piece bikini at best excited and intrigued Quinn, even made him wish that he mhad met her during the period when she walked around half-naked. Ideas and images seemed to form in his mind, some of them his own, but some seemed to come from her, as if his instinctive ability with teelpathy had taken control and managed to glean some of her thoughts about the past. The images were certainly not unpleasant, in fact the spy now wished even more than he had met her earlier, though figured if he had, he would not jave taken her as seriously as he did now. She was a good woman, beautiful to, and even now as she told him what it had been like in the past, then asked him questions about his issues with Caf he found himself more intrigued by her now than he was by the prospect oof meeting her before she had become the woman she was.

"I imagine you wearing nothing but a two-piece bikini was distracting to all of the male Jedi. Heads turning every second must have caused quite a few accidents in the wake of your beautiful silhouette," praised the gurlanin as he watched her. She truly was a most curious woman, her questions about the effects of caf on his system were queries he had not answered in a long time, and truthfully he always wondered why it affected him as it did. There were many possibilities certainly, from nervous system interference, to merely speeding up his thoughts and abilities past his normal rate could be the reason for his reaction to caf. Either way, the Gurlanin tended to stay away from the substance as much as possible, especially since he was already very high functioning, even compared to other Jedi and even Sith. Unlike his counterparts, he wasn't entirely entrenched in the mystical ways of the force, and more often than not found himself relying on technology than supernatural power to get things done in this day and age.

"Truthfully I'm not sure, your guess is as good as mine," began the spy as he observed her closely. "Personally I think it has something to do with the fact that I am so high functioning already, that when my mind and body are affected by the caffiene it puts my instincts into overdrive. So yes, I'd say my nervous system is charged by it and allows quicker reaction to my thoughts. My guess is that when I nearly gave myself a woman's chest, I had been thinking about a woman almost as beautiful and well-endowed as yourself. You are very welcome for the compliment though, as I think I may give you even more in the future. If it's too much, let me know, but I just want you to know what I think about you."

The impish smirk on Kiani's face was soon mirrored by one of Quinn's own, a mischievous grin ready to answer anythign she had with equal cunning and wit, not to mention that at this very moment he was thinking about how he had responded. On one hand he had been entirely truthful, what he had said was how he had felt about her, but on the other hand, he also wanted to flatter her a little, maybe get a rise out of her, a blush, perhaps even some mutual emotion that the two might share. It was natural for hm to seek out this sort of thing, and while his time among the Jedi had been sparsely peppered with encounters with beautful women, he was certainly glad that this particular woman had walked in the door and asked him a question.

Kiani certainly had a knack for intriguing Quinn, and as she walked off to go grab cake and beverages for the two of them, the spy willingly but carefully let the force imprint on his mind what she was feeling. The Gurlanin was fairly skilled with sensing the emotions and intentions of others, even their thoughts as he had earlier, and decided now might be a good time to see what he could feel from her. He didn't exactly want to invade her privacy, but curiosity got the better of him,a nd in a way he was glad it did. She had picked up on his doubts, things he had hoped he had hidden well enough from her so that she couldn't sense them. But then again it was all about body language too sometimes, and even had he hidden his emotions deep down, they would have manifested in other ways for her to discover.

Upon the lady's return, Quinn offered a smile and helped her with the tray, relieving it of his portion of the food and setting it near to him as he still nursed the juice he had left from dinner. She was a remarkably interesting woman, even in the short span he had spoken with her that was apparent. Quinn briefly pondered the idea of asking for a more private venue, but the thought was quickly squashed by internal censors that wished to keep him on track. She was not some lonely senator's wife, or desperately needy and greedy tavern Twi'lek, no, Kiani was a Jedi Padawan, and one he had grown to respect in such a short span. If he was to let their relationship go further than anything physical, or even get to the physical stage, he had to play the game smart and allow a bit of give and take with the situation. He would showcase his abilities a bit more perhaps if she desired further demonstrations, maybe e would even suggest they take a ride in his ship.

Yes, that's what he would do, eventually, as the conversation drew on, he might take her up for a little flying lesson. He wasn't usually comfortable with letting others steer his ship, but with Kiani he might make an exception. for now though, he wanted to continue their conversation.

"It's a shame you aren't given more honest complements though," he continued, "as you definitely deserve them. Now I believe you mentioned something about being skilled with a blade? Mind elaborating a bit for me? I'd like to get to know you a bit more, before I let you handle me and my ship."

Quinn had seemed to recover well enough from his earlier embarrassment. Which she was grateful for the conversation wouldn't have a awkward feel to it. She had sensed him in the Force trying to glean her thoughts which she had expected because of his faux pas earlier. Admittedly she was still lacking in the ability to shield her thoughts on a constant basis. She usually reserved shielding her mind during missions and around Masters who had a tendency to delve into a padawan's thoughts to asses them.

The Gurlanin had asked her about her lightsaber skill. A fair question with an added flirt she surmised. "Well I have trained in most of the lightsaber styles enough to be considered skilled. I excel at Jar'Kai simply because I can naturally use both my hands with the same level of dexterity and independently of each other, which is why I can use two lightsabers of the same length." She answered. "Though others think I'm destined to be the next battlemaster, I personally think I need to master a few of the styles before that would even happen." She added.

Kiani was highly skilled in most of the styles to the point she rarely sparred with anyone. Not out of some prideful arrogance that no one offered her a challenge. It was more humility than anything. She resigned herself to training with combat droids and more experienced Knights that occasionally asked her to spar with them.

The way of the lightsaber was one of her strongest assets as a Jedi only slightly eclipsing her healing abilities. It was something she took seriously without the slightest bit of haughtiness. To take a life in combat or in defense of an innocent was to her the last resort after everything else had failed.

Sometimes the real battle doesn't happen until after your lightsaber is shut down and your enemy is defeated. It is then in the quiet time alone with their thoughts a Jedi must reconcile within their hearts the necessity of the battle and the repercussions of it in the Living Force. This lesson she learned from a holocron her Master told her to access from the Jedi Archives. It was one she took to heart.

Kiani respected life to highly to ever fight unnecessarily or to kill without a valid reason. Just because she was good with a lightsaber didn't mean she had to prove it. This was something she passed on to the younglings she taught in their beginning Shii-cho lessons.

"Would you like a demonstration?" She asked with a smile. " I mean you need to asses if i can handle you or your ship." She added with a flirtatious grin. It was only fair that she did anyway considering Quinn had demonstrated in part his form shifting ability.

While Kiani mentioned her abilities with a blade Quinn listened closely, intrigued by what she had to say. Ambidextrous, like himself and the grand master, but unlike them she had chosen to use two blades instead of one. Of course, Quinn himself wasn't all that skilled in lightsaber combat, but he was rather proud of the style he had managed t create that was all his own. Unlike other Jedi that modeled other forms, he had worked from experience, first using Knife combat, then evolving his style with the help of the grand Master and the one that had recruited him. They commented that his style was ferocious and quick, stealthy even, meant for extremely close quarters, and he had told them that that was the idea all along.

But as he was drawn from the contemplation of his own skills, and into thoughts about Kiani's abilities, he offered a small smile. Some said she was destined to be Battlemaster someday huh? That was good, if she had such an ability in her then he was glad he might help her expand her horizons and learn more about ships and combat of varying kinds. her humility about the subject was a welcome relief from the type-A arrogant asses he had come across in some of the other Jedi Aces, especially when he also brought up the fact that she was also a compassionate woman. A gentle grin spread across his lips briefly until he began to catch snippets of thought from her, ideas that he was not searching for but had made themselves known to him.

In particular, he seemed to catch an entire series of words that were linked to combat, words that he had not encountered before, but had experienced first hand in his own way. In his youth he had been forced to kill, even during his time as a spy he had willingly gone into battle with pistols and knives ready to take everyone in his path out of the equation. The Jedi had tried to teach him a different way of course, and while he normally avoidaed combat because of his stealthy nature, as a pilot it was inevitable, and sometimes taking out guards on the ground that kept him from those riddled in the dark side of the force became necessary. With a slow, minute nod the spy knew that what he had felt was true, and that he himself often came to terms with those he killed by drinking to the dead as it were, a custom Grand Master Rovnak Torvalan had passed onto him.

Her comment about a demonstration intrigued the shapeshifter, not just about her skills, but about the pun; which she had intentionally used no doubt. The flirtatious grin caught his eye, the gurlanin more curious about this woman than ever. Did he have a chance of forming a friendship, or perhaps more, with her today? he wasn't about to lose his chance, and with Kiani he didn't think he would have time for a second chance if he didn't seize it now.

"From what you described, I bet you could best many of the Jedi Knights. Hopefully I'm right, because I do like strong, dextrous women," Quinn replied with a cheeky, flirtatious smile of his own. "combat's been a part of my life for a long time, and if you want to give me a demonstration or two, I wouldn't mind. In fact, I might just let you handle me and my ship.Think of it as a two for one package as it were, a big package at that too."

“I hope not too big, I have small hands.” She replied back with a giggle. This conversation was definitely interesting. Very few times in her life did she have one that provided both a learning experience and sheer enjoyment. Though she had to be very careful with the flirting and innuendos she had in this conversation. Kiani never knew when her inner demon of the mating call the Dantari refer to as Tahesia would surface.

Tahesia was the primal mating instinct that all Dantari women had, whether or not it was mystical in origin or some strange biological trait passed down from the women of her people was unclear. It has proven to be a nuisance in her life because of the strange effects in has on her.

When under its effects Kiani became more aggressive towards men in general and towards men she was attracted to specifically. She became more flirtatious and even out right domineering to gain what she wanted. In this case to mate with a man, not just for the sheer sexual pleasure, but to produce offspring. It has been a burden for her since its onset in her early teens. There are more than four occasions in which her Master has basically locked her up in her room until it has passed. Not for the reason that she outwardly becomes a sex crazed junkie of sorts, but because she seems to access the Force in a weird way that influences or heightens a man’s interest in her. In seems akin to producing pheromones in some animal species. More than one man has but themselves in jeopardy trying to be with her.

“Well after our meal we can go to the Training rooms and give you a little taste of my skill.” She stated trying all of a sudden not to make it sound as a invitation for physical contact. “I can call up on of my training routines and show you my style.” She added with a slight blush suddenly appearing across her cheeks.

Kiani seriously didn’t want to scare this man away. Outside her adopted brother of sorts Haak and her Master, there were very few men in her life that she had a regular contact with in the Order. So it was important to her to keep a lid on herself until she at least got to know Quinn better before airing out her dirty little secret. It wasn’t common knowledge of her periodic affliction, as the council had kept a tight lid on the knowledge soon after finding out about it.

Kiani has to check in to the healers of the Temple on a regular basis to monitor her baseline health. Soon after the first major incident the healers brainstormed and developed a way to check her out. It seems there are a couple of physical indicators that signal the onset of Tahesia, other than her getting more sexually precocious and flirty. Kiani’s senses seem to elevate for some odd reason especially her sense of smell and touch. The Jedi Healers have yet to study the phenomenon of Tahesia in full. It is simply for the fact that they would have to seemingly allow for some sexual indiscretions on the part of Kiani and a test subject.

She finishes her decadent dessert and sips on her caf after her last comment to avoid for the moment the awkwardness she just started to feel. She really wants to pursue this encounter in the best way possible. She wants to make a new friend and maybe a trusted ally in this interesting man. She doesn’t, however, want to have a major scandal blow up in the Temple.

Natural telepathy and empathic abilities threatened again to glean information from Kiani's mind, already information streamed from her and into the Gurlanin's mind as easily as if he were reading a datapad. As quickly as he could Quinn shut down the link, let the force flow away from himself and back into the galaxy where it belonged. At this very moment, he wanted self-disclosure rather than unwilling acknowledgment of personal information. As much as the spy would have liked to learn more about this beautiful younger woman, he very much wanted to keep his abilities in check, and his personality from scaring her away. She was a Jedi, after all, and she could sense when he was delving into her mind or not. Not only that, but she deserved better than tavern wenches, waitresses, and smuggling contractors, she was a woman that deserved a gentleman's approach, something Quinn was familiar with, but not all that exceptional at putting into action.

Shutting down his instinctual curiosity and gleaning of information from others' minds, Quinn smiled as he ate some of his cake, taking in only that which she said, and the little knowledge he had gleaned about her. Some ailment called Tahesia was what she was trying to keep from him, and it possibly had something to do with her species, and more specifically her gender. Whatever it was, Quinn was sure she would enlighten him eventually, as the only thing he thought it could be was some sort of biological function like a normal human woman's time of cleansing, as he called it. With a mental shrug he finished off his cake, downed what drinks he had left, and observed Kiani with a careful eye.

Her posture, both lingual and physical, had changed. Perhaps she didn't want this Tahesia or whatever it was interfering with making a friend either, something Quinn felt he could relate to quite easily. Happy that things had gotten off to a good start, the Jedi pondered what he was to do with this situation and whether or not to take her up on her offer of showing off her skills with a blade. It wouldn't hurt anyone certainly, and he knew his way around a weapon well enough to hold his own. Of course, he had developed a prototype shield that he might try to use, and hopefully it would work well if he decided to show off some of his inventions. It was a good idea, he thought, and even though he prefered a pistol to a lightsaber, he was willing to indulge the female Jedi in order to further their experiences with one another.

"Small hands or no, I'm sure you would be able to handle me just fine," Quinn answered with a pleasant smile as he stood and guided Kiani to the trash to the sink so the workers could take care of their dishes. "As for showing me some of your skills, that sounds like a good idea. Maybe I'll even show you some of my own work, perhaps even an invention I've been working on as of late. Not sure how common it's going to become but I think it will make a difference in my life at least. So shall we delve into the wonders of our skills together?"
