(I'm here now!) Shiloh shifted, waiting for Essar to come back. She wanted to ask him how close they were to Naboo.

(Hello! They're actually all in the kitchen.)
Essar got some cups and poured some caf in them. "Enjoy!"

(Oh, ok. Sorry!)

Shiloh accepted the cup but didn't drink. "How close are we to Naboo Essar?"

"Dunno," He said, sipping his caf. "I'll ask 5 when we get done here."

Winter tasted the caf. It was really good. But, there was a tingling sensation. It made her feel wide awake, and ready to jump into action. "Hey, Essar, what's in this? It's making me feel jumpy…" Elias mumbled, "Yeah, I like it, but what's in it? I want to bounce off all the walls…"

Essar chuckled. "Well, it has coffee beans and water. Sometimes the potency of the beans vary, but that's pretty much it." He finished his cup and poured a second. "Practically one's sustenance if you're in the Rebellion. Especially Intelligence."

"It can't be the water, so what's in the beans that makes me feel so jumpy? I kind of like it…" Elias muttered.

"Eh, I don't know. Most grow on trees or something. They're just beans. I won't know I'm not a farmer." Essar shrugged.

"Wait. Caf, maybe that short for caffeine. That might be why I feel so jumpy. I have only had caffeine once before, at the cantina…" Winter said with a goofy smile on her face.

Essar nodded. "Yep. Caf is caffeine."
(I'll be on and off. I'm doing math.)

Elias smiled. "I forgot what caffeine does to Winter. It makes her really accurate, which is odd, because it makes you shaky… I don't know how she does it. She's normally really steady anyway, but this makes her insanely steady…"

Shiloh pretended to take a sip of the caf. She didn't really care for anything other than water. She listened to the others chatting while she let her bouncing leg be the only sign of her antsy mindset.

Winter was feeling really good. The caf, was heightening her senses. She felt everything, heard everything, and she was pretty sure she could do anything. Elias put his hand on her shoulder. "Easy, caffeine does this. It makes you feel more awake. It's what keeps you awake when you're sleep deprived. I have had it a few times, but not like you. You have only had it twice, and you seem really affected by it. Maybe it's not a good thing for you to have caffeine…" Winter giggled. "Whatever it is, it makes me feel really good. It makes me feel awake, and more aware."

Essar finished his second cup. "Well, be a bit careful." He said, chuckling. Hi-5 walked in. "Did anyone else experience a slight drop in temperature?"

"Slight," Shiloh agreed, trying to hide her extreme sarcasm. It wasn't working.

Elias looked at Hi-5, "Yeah, it was a slight drop. It wasn't almost enough freeze a twi'lek…" Winter just sipped her caf, and tried not to bring attention to herself.

Hi-5 nodded. "We're almost to Naboo." She said, walking out of the kitchen.

Shiloh sniffed and gulped a sharp burst of caf. She nearly choked trying not to spit it out, but she swallowed it and downed the rest of the cup.

Winter looked at Elias. "What's the temperature of Naboo? We may go without armour to draw less attention to ourselves. Unless it's like a summery planet. Then, I'm gonna die from the heat." Elias laughed. "The information I read said it was a moderately warm planet. So for us, that's gonna be like Tatooine to them. It's not going to comfortable for you and me…"
