Because I know I'm not the only one whose thought of this.

It's the....

Ten Years Later RP Meme!

To put it simply, how do you think your character will have developed over ten years on the Good Meatship Stacy?

And playing them like it's ten years later.

[Arha took the offered hand without searching for it. She knew where Shepard was. Her lips curved slightly.]

I am still Jed-Eye. While my eyes are gone, I see in a different manner. Perhaps, in some respects, clearer. My skills with lightsaber and those of fighting are not diminished. Or do you wish a tumble to prove such, mm?

[Like the rest of Shepard's body, her hand was rough in some areas but her touch was gracefully and yet firm. This hasn't been the first time they've held hands for one reason or another. Shepard started to make her walk.]

[The last bit of Arha's words caught a little off-guard, forcing a little cough out of her. God, was her cheeks really starting to heat up? She turned to give her companion a rather incredulous look]

I've only been here long enough to say 'Hi' and you ask that? a little quick even for you, isn't it?

[Arha laughed. Good. That had caught the woman off guard. It was good to know that still worked.]

That depends on the definitions being used. What is it the old Earth people say? 'Wham, slam, thank you ma'am'? Or have I got that wrong? I am only jesting, Shepard. [her chin tilted] So many words for so, so many things.

[Grouchy old Shepard gave an indignant huff at Arha's laugh, but it was good to hear Arha doing so well. She gave a fond squeeze to her companion's hand.]

You got it right enough for you not to say it again. I'm pretty sure it was just as corny back then as it is now.

[The commander turned her head away, probably left overs from an age long ago where a younger woman would be a little thrown off in discussing it so straight up]

Still...I would think you'd tease more of the younger, prettier kids that run around these days than some old Varren like me.

Do not be calling yourself what you are not, Shepard. Should I tease the younger ones, they would not have half the wit to respond well at all. [her tone said the responses would be embarrassing at the least]

Insult yourself again, I will be forced to take countermeasures.

[teasing was easy and was a dance she had learned long ago]

[Shepard stopped where she was, turning around til she stood close in front of Arha. An old fire flickered and burned inside her and though her face wasn't exactly smiling but just from the sound of her tone, she might as well be grinning ear to ear.]

You say that, but how can I know your countermeasures would be any effective?

[She took Arha's other hand and both of her thumbs caressed the back of the Bene Gesseritt's fingers.]

It just might counter-attack in response.

If one does not have a counter-attack prepared, I would be most disappointed. The very existence of countermeasures demands a response.

[Arha flashed a grin and did not pull away. She had not pulled away the other time, either. It was not a difficult choice to make.]

The strength of such a response, [her lips curled slightly and she reached out to unerringly bop Shepard on the tip of her nose with a forefinger] depends upon one's intent. Of course.

[Okay, that was a little unexpected. Her head drew back and she let go of one of Arha's hands to rub her nose. Talk about awkward. Still, she was almost there anyway...]

I don't think I was ever one to be really good at hiding my intents...

[Her free came up to lift Arha's chin while she lowered herself a little to bring a kiss together. It wasn't wasn't very deep, but definitely inviting for more.]

[Amusement rippled so strongly it was more like an inaudible wave of laughter that charged the air. Arha slid her fingers along Shepard's wrist and found her jaw, the motion careful as she leaned up into the kiss. It was a different sort of thing---testing, like the way the tip of her tongue brushed out as if to chase memories like the sound of energy weapons down a corridor.]
