Iggy sighed quitly, dissappointed that it was just a maid. "Yes. But better safe than sorry." She looked at Mith and was almost shocked at how close he was to her, she realized he had no chioce for the duct was narrow.

Mithowan realized he wasn't with a squadmate that was comfortable around him, so he scooted back and tried to shrink away from her to keep her comfortable. Eventually he layed flat, with his feet hanging down the verticle shaft.

Igatta noticed Mith's attempt to give her some space and was thankful, although she wondered why it had bothered her in the first place, such situations never had before. Or maybe it was the fact that it didn't bother her. Her cheecks reddened at the thought, and she tried not to meet his gaze as she spied through the vent, hoping the maid would finish soon.

After what seemed like hours, Igatta gently touched Mith's shoulder and pointed at the maid, who was prepairing to leave, the office sparkling. "We should probably get to the room," He checked his chrono. "We still have a bit of time before lunch, we should probably be there when he comms for us."

Iggy nodded. "Let's get going."

Mith and Iggy slid the grate off, and Mith held onto Iggy's arms as she lowered herself to the floor. When she was safely on the ground he reached up and grabbed the ledge by his waist and then gently flipped down. When he regained his balance he put the grate back on and moved towards the door.

Igatta walked with Mithowan to the door. They entered the halls and made their way back to the guest section of the house, assuming their spouce-like fecade again.

They had about an hour of free time in their room, which Mith decided to spend with his holopuzzle.

While Mithowan worked on the holopuzzles, Igatta typed on her datapad.

Finally they got a comm from a driod, telling them to go to the dining room for lunch. Mithowan got up and put his arm around Igatta as they walked down the hall and into the dining room.

Once again, they were seated at the large dining room table, this time Iggy was seated next to Marthimesh's wife, a tall blonde with a seeimingly friendly personality. "So, Lorrainne- you don't mind if I call you Lorrainne, do you?" She asked. "Of course not." Igatta put on her best smile. "How did you and Zak meet?" Apparently Mrs. Kindasdar didn't share her husband's strictly business-like personality. Now Igatta needed a story, and fast.

Mithowan noticed Igatta in conversation with Marthimesh's wife, and after listening for a while, smiled. Igatta's voice had a musical quality to it... I can't think like that, especially not while on a mission. Mithowan pretended to be sleeping in his chair while everyone else talked, waiting for dinner to be served, but he was actually... Sleeping in his chair. He meant to be spying, but the chair was comfortable.

Igatta decided to be creative. "It was at a dinner party." "Oooh, so your family must have been of some nobility as well.""No, actually I showed up there on accident. I was supposed to meet some friends at a resteraunt, but my friend said O'Mally's and I somehow mistook it for an upper-class restaurant I knew of called O'Nel's. So here I am, waiting for my friends to arrive, in the middle of this fund raiser, sitting alone, sipping wine, and up strides Zak, dashing in his nobelmen's robes. He introduced himself and I explained I was waiting for some friends. He asked me if I'd rather wait on the dance floor." "That is romantic!""Yes."

Mithowan woke up, and looked around the room, and then at his Chrono. 3 minutes had passed. He leaned forward and began to pay attention to Igatta and Mrs. Kindasdar.

"Do you have any chlidren?" "No, no, our lives are much too busy for children." "Well, thank-you for sharing your story, you two struck me as a couple who is very much in love, and I wanted to learn more about you. There aren't many couples like that in today's galaxy." Igatta, not Lorrainne, blushed slightly, but her expression didn't change. "Thank-you."
