Part 1: Deliverance

At hearing the transmission, Avox sighs and stands up. He exits the cantina and heads towards the shipyard at an even pace. He is sure to pay close attention to the comms in case another message comes.

Bo will approach taking out her slicer deck. She takes a knee in front of the droid, "Wha do we have heah? I will twy to connect to your netwok."

Bo attempts to contact the droid through the net and translate it's squeals. She will let the other characters see the marquee scroll across her slicer screen.

Savi read the readout quickly and began processing. He started putting together disparate occurrences; the ambush in orbit, Thessa's reaction to the droid's presence, the droid's message, and Chusk's absence...

Not enough to draw any definitive conclusions, but certainly enough to raise the veteran manipulator's hackles. I need to be careful not to jump at shadows here. Seeing warning signs where none exist can be just as disastrous as not seeing the ones that are actually there. Savi cautions himself and discreetly takes half a step back in order to keep Thessa and the droid in plain sight while he tried to add things up correctly.

Despite his paltry skills with it, the weight of his blaster gave him a modicum of comfort. More came with the sight of Avox entering the bay.

Bo squints (the best she can without defined eyelids) at the droid. She dedicates herself and a flash of typing and hand gestures attempting to fully hack the droid. She want to find out who sent it and where home is.

Meanwhile, Thessa begins checking over the crates for signs of tampering.

Savi watches Thessa very closely to make sure she isn't tampering with the crates or removing anything. As long as she is, indeed, just checking the crates, he will remain quiet. If she appears to be doing anything else, he will feel compelled to ask her about it.

Jack lets Bo do her work, silently following Thessa through her inspection until he does eventually ask, "How's it looking?"

Thessa inspects the seams of each crate carefully. "It all looks fine, thank the force," she says with relief. She looks up to Savi, "May I do my scan of the contents?" She indicates a handheld scanner she draws from her bag.

Savi differs to Bo's expertise. "I can't see any reason why not...Bo?"

Savi fires off a disarming smile in her direction in an attempt to convince her his watchfulness is born of mere curiosity.

Jack, entirely unaware of this subtle interaction between Savi and Thessa, just says, "Well, it's your cargo, by my account. Just what exactly are you receiving? Something you can't open up right here?"

Thessa shrugs and begins scanning the crates. "My friends value their privacy, and I think they worry its more likely they'll get attention they don't want if they lay out their wares for people to see. I'm under orders...that is, they have instructed me to scan them but keep them closed and sealed."
