Room 313, Sunday night

For all of Jaina's worrying that she didn't have a job anymore, new orders came in anyway when she wasn't expecting them. Well, that answered that question. The Vong had started closing in on the Corellian Run, which meant they were starting to invade the Core Worlds, and so the Rogues were being deployed to try and fight them off before they got any closer than they already were. They were simple orders, and shouldn't take that long.

It wasn't even a big deal to go back out. She wanted to get back in a ship, sure, but maybe she'd already stopped thinking of fighting as something to look forward to. It was a job. She'd go there, rack up some more kills, come back to school. At least she had a better idea now of how time there equated to Fandom time.

After leaving a few voicemails, she started packing a bag, not exactly sure when they'd call her again to come meet the transport.

Luke hustled down the hall after checking his messages, hoping he hadn't missed Jaina.

He knocked quickly at the door.

Luke opened the door. "That happened fast," he commented.

"The recall," he replied. "They're still scrambling on the defense, right? Offensive maneuvers normally have more of a lead time."

Luke nodded, eyes locking on hers. "Shoot straight, come back as soon as you can," he said quietly.

"I know, but I can be the worried uncle for just a second," Luke decided, tapping her on the nose.

"Do I get a hug before you take off to be a big hero?" he asked.

Luke held on tightly. "May the Force be with you," he murmured.

After getting her voicemail, he'd sat in his room for a while, debating if he should go downstairs. Going had won out.

Of course, he hadn't actually knocked on the door yet, so he could still go back upstairs. He wasn't sure if saying goodbye was a good idea.

He'd maybe forgotten that part when he'd decided he could just stand in the hall for a while, yes. "I was thinking about it," he replied.

"I did," he said, feeling really awkward. "You know, this hallway is surprisingly well lit."

He stepped inside and looked around, "How's the packing going?"

"Oh no?" he asked, not sure where she was going with that. "Though, I don't suppose there's much time for fun when you're fighting a war."

"Well, sounds like you'll have a good trip," he said, leaning back against the wall and wondering what the hell he was doing.
