“I only asked them to send me a couple…” The blonde woman sighed, shaking her head as she glanced down at the table she was sitting at. There were jobs littered all over it and Bastila was having a rather difficult time sorting through them all. It had been quite some time since she had last actually taken one on and that was part of the reason why she was so eager to get back on the trail again, so to speak. Some of the offers in front of her were ones she could simply not accept, due to her new status as a legal mage but there were at least a few that were tempting. Still, it was rather difficult for her to decide and as she took a sip from her cup, her blue eyed gaze would glance up briefly and look around.
She was in her favourite coffee shop, a place that she had been coming to for years and a local haunt that had been a place of comfort for her during the tough times in her life. Fortunately, those unhappy memories had long since passed and nowadays, she was simply happy to have been reunited with her daughter once again and to have found a new guild, one where both Sakura and herself could hopefully find a little stability and happiness. They had both been through enough and as she sat and drank from her cup again, a warm smile crossed her features, one that reached her blue grey coloured eyes.
Her moment of bliss was rather unexpectedly spoiled as her Phoenix companion Faeya decided to choose that moment to fly through the door of the cafe and land slap bang on top of all of the job papers, sending them all over the place and nearly sending the woman’s coffee flying too.
Yet, rather than scowl at her companion and scold her, Bastila would simply chuckle and stroke the beautiful creature’s head, resulting in the Phoenix starting to sing with joy. "You always did know how to make an entrance.”
