Home Away From Home?The last time Cal had fallen asleep on a train it had not exactly ended well. So waking up on one, even as different as it was, had him on edge. Even more so than just having no idea where he was might warrant. He did his best not to show it of course, smiling to others and listening to the guides with a growing sense of confusion once they had stopped. BD however, started beeping away on his shoulder, hopping down to check out everything.
The space in the assigned bunk is... so much more than he could have anticipated. And no Empire to worry about? If Greez and everyone else were here this would almost be perfect. Thing was, he had so much left to do back home, but he didn't know how to get there. And seeing as they needed help here? Why not do that while he tried to figure it out.
He headed out and started walking around, BD running ahead to scan everything he could. In his enthusiasm the small droid ran smack into another person's shins and let out a slow trill as he looked up.
Cal gave a soft laugh as he caught up, shaking his head. "Sorry about that, he just really likes exploring."
What is a Beach Episode?Cal's exploration brought him to the boardwalk. He snagged a variety of food from some of the stalls, much of it sweet and none of it healthy. He ate while checking things out. Every so often he would stop and put a hand on something, as if drawn to it, closing his eyes as he took in the memory of a moment.
And then after he stepped back he would focus on the droid perched on his shoulder, recounting moments he hadn't been there to see. He did this quietly, not wanting to be overheard, but he's so used to travelling alone, he didn't consider that his voice might carry. Or that he might end up overheard by someone from one of those moments.
Nightmares? Yeah Now it Feels More FamiliarAs nightmares went, he'd dealt with worse, even the particularly aggressive ones didn't take much more than some solid force shoves to run off. The problem? Look. The problem was the crabs. Or rather. BD was making himself the crabs' problem.
He watched BD shock yet another of the large crab's claws so that it would drop the object. And this one was annoyed Shaking his head he went over to rescue his little droid. Before, y'know, he became the object a crab decided to run off with.
BD beeped and scampered, going to shock the next one. Not that he was trying to get Cal to chase him through or anything. Nope. Not at all.
"BD, if you get grabbed, don't expect me to save you!" BD gave a trill that Cal was pretty certain was a laugh. "I'm not kidding." This was not made any more believable by the fact Cal was chasing after the droid.
