Coruscant- Saturday
Jul. 9th, 2011 09:00 amYesterday had been Jaina's 28th birthday, and she was largely unreachable for it. For the first time since she'd left for her year in Fandom, the entire Solo family- what was left of it, anyway- was on the same planet at the same time. Naturally this meant her parents thought it would be a good idea for them to all spend time together, because Jacen and Jaina had both absolutely failed at letting them know that they weren't exactly on speaking terms at the moment.
Despite their current issues, there were some things that the twins were still of one mind about, such as the fact that this was the exact wrong time to tell their parents that they weren't exactly on speaking terms. So they got through it, careful not to set themselves up for any actual conversation with each other, more because it might tip Han and Leia off than because they couldn't play nice for one night, and making sure to clamp down on any irritation that might be felt. Okay fine, that was Jaina's issue, not Jacen's. All in all, it ended up being a pretty good time without any drama or arguments.
But today was quiet with not much on Jaina's schedule, and too much free time was making her too thoughtful. And kind of depressed. She and Jacen had automatically conspired to get away with something without their parents knowing just like they had when they were kids, but the state of the relationship was bad and she had no idea how to fix it anymore. The part of her that could win a championship in holding grudges almost didn't want to. Then when you added in all the thoughts she suddenly had about her last conversation with Ben, wondering if it was already too late for Jacen, wondering if she should keep trying, wondering if she should stay away in order to shield them both from further emotional hurt from a future that might be inevitable...
She might just abandon her quarters for the day and spend all her time in the training room. That wasn't an excessive way to spend a day, right?
[SP is in effect but not posting her for her birthday after four years was gonna bother me more than I wanna admit. Open for calls, texts, emails, FedEx, carrier pigeon, pony express, telegraph, smoke signals, and entire conversations in semaphore.]
