|| @memcriaes for hera !!!

“You ever wonder where she goes, when she goes there??”

Pair of curious eyes watch the loth-tooka strut down the temple hall as it does always by the late afternoon hour, always stopping by the same droid sized door to vanish for a couple hours. Cirz pats Hera’s elbow indicating with the tilt of his head the loth-tooka which sits attentively in front of the closed entrance until one of the many temple droids rolls out from the other side allowing the tooka to slip into the hidden corridor.

In one moment Cirz runs toward the entrance and blocks the door from closing with the tip of his shoe. New shoe, because he still did not find the old shoe. He looks back to Hera with a grin spreading on his face. With an invitation. “You can fit in there!!”

A thoughtful look in his eyes when he studies Hera’s face and then her droid’s (or what he thinks counts as a ‘face’ in an astromech anyway) He is certain that his friend will go with him, but he notes the sudden loss of enthusiasm, and he has to wonder if ‘Chopper’ has told Hera something awful just now.

“Your droid is wrong” He points out, as he pushes the sliding door open and proceeds onward. “It’ll be alright!” There is enough space for them in the droid sized pathway, and he can hear a faint echo of small paws trotting somewhere ahead. 

He gives Hera one last quick glance

“Come!" Excitement colors his voice. "Before we lose her!” Saying so Cirz speeds ahead. The corridor is stuffy and long, an exit is not visible.

“Uh-uh.”

Deciding to follow the tooka wherever she went had seemed like a good idea, back when Hera and Cirz were trapped in the Temple with nothing to do as their Masters left on a mission too dangerous for them. Now that she looked at the trap door, though, Hera found out what Master Kenobi meant when he said he had a bad feeling about something. Chopper was grumbling at her side, already warning her that this was a bad idea, no matter how curious both Padawans could be right now.

“You go first,” she said instead of listening to her droid, even though she really wanted to tell Cirz not to go. It would be worse if he went to follow Maijah alone, she realized, and Chopper could help them if things went wrong anyways.

This seems to amuse Cirz rather than offend him. “You are not the first person to say that.”

But he still wishes his friend would trust him some more, more than that droid. What does it know that he doesn’t? It’s not like they are breaking the temple rules yet, prooobably not at all… they will just take a peek and come back!

The door slides shut behind them, cutting most of the noise from the temple hallways off, not like the temple is noisy, but now with the door separating them, the droid corridor is even quieter. Without the force still pooling around them it would be easy to think they were completely alone in, like, some desolate ore mine. (He has never heard of an ore mine smelling of barabel floor cleanser though.)

“Um. It’s ok! Even if the door got shut, the droids come here everyday. We will not be stuck, if we even are, which I’m sure we are not.” He nods to himself and goes onward. “You always get a bad feeling Hera, there possibly can’t be that many bad feelings in the Force.”
