Mie simply had to stop traveling alone at night, it was starting to get ridiculous and was interfering with her sleep. Granted, given her mangled, monstrous features traveling in the daylight was something of a risk, and without a speeder she had to travel quite far to reach new museums and libraries. But still, walking at night in the slums of Coronet City, with her pretty little body wrapped up in cheap, baggy civilian clothing, she was practically begging for attention. She might as well have been toting a neon holo-sign reading 'Mug me' on her back. She was already dressed in a purple hoodie, so a blaring sign wouldn't be out of place. Every little creak, crack, and tap that emanated from the darkened side alleys put her on edge, as any of them could be a thief waiting to pounce. Now, if she had actually gotten something out of her slog across the city she might have been less tense and more optimistic about this nighttime march. But with little to show for her latest hike beyond maintaining the musculature in her legs, Mie was equal parts frightened and frustrated. As such, the last thing she needed right now was to be attacked by some sleazy creep with a knife. So of course someone with a knife leapt out of the shadows of an alley while Mie was distracted with her own thoughts, throwing an arm around her neck and flashing a knife in her face.
"Alright beautiful." The man threw her against a nearby wall, slamming his free hand against the wall to her left, while his knife nearly touched her nose. "I want everything in your pock-AH!"
The would-be mugger's speech was cut short as Mie, with reflexive, instinctive speed spun them both around, slamming the man into the wall hard enough to cause him to drop his knife. He had picked perhaps the worst single woman to mug on Corellia, a pissed-off mutant looking to vent some serious steam. Holding him by his throat to the wall, Mie pulled off her sunglasses and scarf, revealing the horrifying visage that lie beneath. Her mouth, sans cheeks, was a web of large, jagged, vicious-looking fangs snarled at the man like an angry nexu. Her yellow, slit eyes were no less predatory than her mouth, and seemed to glare a hole through the man's head. Her free hand, no gloveless, traced a claw down the side of the man's face in a gesture both tactile and terrifying. Under normal circumstances Mie kept her features covered, but she had no problem scarring the kark out of some wannabe thug if he tried to mess with her.
"You picked the wrong girl to mug, farker."
