Coruscant.

The idea of leaving the library forever, appealed to Marcella. It was something that always stuck with her. Generally it lived back in the depths of her mind, but she's caught herself thinking about it more often as of recently. She's always loved her library in Coruscant. But she couldn't find the passion for it anymore. Luckily, she had always been saving credits for when she really wanted to disappear. She knows how to fly a ship, the small ones she can handle. It's the bigger ships she's more afraid of. Marcella couldn't accept the fact that she was done with working in her library, but now the feeling was stronger than ever.

Ultimately, she gave up. She handed in her notice of resignation, and left. Not one single word left her lips from that moment until she returned to her apartment. She untied her corset and threw it on the floor and took off the rest of her clothes. She scrambled through one of her boxes and found one of her old tracksuit sets. She bought it from a vintage store months back, it was a bit big for her then and it still is now. She put it on anyway and sat on the couch with a sigh.
"It's over." She opened up her data pad and scrolled through a forum that she often visited. There wasn't anything new that interested her and closed it down. She decided to put up a small advertisement, she needed to talk to someone about ships. Someone who actually knew what they were talking about and not some weirdo on the holonet. Looking to convert a ship into a tiny home/small shop. Please contact Marcella Montgomery for more information. She left her details underneath and hit the "post" button.

She's never left Coruscant, she's never even been to another planet.
"I'm 24 years old and I have nothing to my name for christ's sake." She needed to do something, she needed to find something that would bring her the passion she once had. But she had no idea what that would be, and the thought of that was enough to excite her.

She would not have to wait long before her device would be giving a notification beep from itself. Someone had directly messaged her in response to her post. It was not the longest of answers, but an answer nonetheless.
"Hi there, I might be able to aid you a bit in your endeavour! one of my Aunts operates a ship shop. I can certainly hand you some advice. If you are interested, just hit me up and propose someplace to meet. I just think it is nicer to discuss these things in person. If you are interested, I'm Celeste and living on the 56. level. I just won't go much further down, no proper place for a young lady. Anyplace above is fine though. See you soon xD"
The direct message was not much to look at, but it was more than nothing, and promised some needed advice.

Marcella's data pad bleeped at her as she began to seal up one of the many boxes of old clothes she had sold. She picked up the data pad and read the reply to her message. She typed out a short and simple reply. "That's great! There's a small tearoom that I like to visit on level 73, come meet me there. The tearoom is called 'The Reali-tea of Life'. No, I'm not joking, that's actually what it's called. I'll be there in an hour." She hit the send button and went back to her boxes.

Two more boxes had been filled with clothes now, it was only at this point she realised that she would have to ship these in three trips. Marcella sighed. She put on something decent, her usual get up of a button up t-shirt and a pair of brown trousers. She didn't bother with a corset this time, she only wore those at the library. She packed a small bag that contained a knife, her spare data pad and a book. She threw it on her back, and headed out of her apartment complex. She stopped a taxi and paid for a lift to the tearoom.

On her way, she would receive a short message once more, this time it seemed even shorter. "Alr! I might be a tad late, hope that isn't detrimental! C U" That was all that was written, in a way no more needed to be said. Marcella would meet the girl in the tea shop. Once she was there, she would probably not have to wait long.

Marcella had finally made it to the tearoom. The taxi driver took the worst detour Marcella had ever seen. The journey should've taken her 20 minutes, but instead took 40 minutes. She almost slammed the door behind her when she entered the tearoom. The waitress eyed her as she strolled up to the counter. "One cup of chamomile tea, and a couple scones please. I'm meeting a client here, do you have any private rooms available?" The waitress nodded and escorted her to one of the private rooms in the back.

Marcella had just sat down when the waitress returned with her cup of tea and a tray of scones.
"There's clotted cream and strawberry jam on the side there." "Thank you." Marcella smiled at the waitress and she left. Her sigh escaped her lips, and she took a sip of chamomile tea. Now all she had to do was wait for Daria to arrive.
