Just try. I think you'll really like it.
[ And she pauses, eyes sweeping over him sprawled there on her bed. ] I do still feel a little bad about leaving alone with the creepy six-eyed guy, if you'd care to take advantage of that.

Well, where would they not expect us to go?
[ Peter makes a face and shudders. ] How about we don't mention creepy six-eyed guy in the bedroom.
[ He chews on his lower lip thoughtfully. ] We could backtrack, hit up towns we've already visited.
[ She laughs, taking a seat on the edge of the bed ]
Sorry, my bad.
Sorry, my bad.
[ He scoots over a bit, giving her more room -- and there's not much of it on the bunk, considering the two of them are also sharing the space with the crapton of books she bought today (at least by Peter's measurements, which, admittedly, are not a galactic standard). ]
Still, I'd be an idiot to say no to whatever you're offering.

[ she shifts, moving to straddle his hips, hands slipping up under his shirt. She lets out a low little chuckle ]
By the way, I'm pretty sure that calling me "Maya-wan Kenobi" puts you back at being Leia.

[ she shakes her head ] Either way, that puts us in the Order's path. Their abbey is back the way we came.
[ His breath hitches as she moves, and he bites down on his lower lip when he feels her hands on her bare skin--
Wait what. ]
Whoa there, cowgirl. There is still no universe where I'd be Leia.

You think we should keep going then? Hit up the next town and hope for the best?
But what if I want to see you in a little gold bikini?
[ -asked with complete and total innocence ]
[ -asked with complete and total innocence ]
We could avoid the towns altogether. Stick to the wilderness. Head for the mountains.
[ His face slackens and he just. Stares. ]
... What.
... What.
[ He considers this for a second then nods. ] Travel in the mountains is rough. We'll still need to get supplies.
[ Pffffft. She just laughs. ]
I'm just giving you shit.
I'm just giving you shit.
That goes without saying. I doubt we'll be welcome beck the way we just came, considering what happened. Shall we press forward and then skip town?
[ Peter's frown deepens slightly. He only knows in theory that Maya is powerful; he hasn't seen her in action, aside from the brief displays with the two Ravager scouts. He remembers Mordo's powers firsthand, though, and given the finality with which Maya said she had taken care of him-- well, he can only imagine what sort of devastation their fight left behind. ]
Seems like our best option. Hopefully news doesn't travel too fast.

I can tell. [ And he sounds half-impressed, half-nervous. ] You scared the hell out of me.
Not a fan of the bikini idea?
[ this time she's obviously teasing ]
[ this time she's obviously teasing ]
Golden bikini in general? Sure. Golden bikini on me? Deeeefinitely a no. I mean, I know I'd probably look good in anything, but-- no. Pass.
I suppose there's only one way to find out.
... By the way, I left you some food from last night.

[ She actually goes "tsk tsk" at him. ]
Where's your sense of adventure, Peter?

[ He looks sheepish, and his gaze flicks down awkwardly. ] ... Oh, right. Sort of-- passed out on you, didn't I.
