The Lusty Lekku: An Early Interview

[Ti'ame]

"Ti, that Rodian is making eyes at you, go seduce him." Ti'ame grumbled under her breath as she stepped out of the small shower tucked away in the corner of the Lekku girl's shared room, wrapping a towel around herself. "Ti, go clean up the mess in room six. Ti, you're interviewing a dancer for me because I dont wanna wake up early, wear this." Scrunching her face in annoyance as she picked the dress that Cait had given her the night before. "Pink. Why does it always have to be pink?" She really hated pink. Well, she didnt hate pink, but she hated how it popped with her blue skin and drew the attention of every person in the room.

"You know she just likes to watch you strut around with all eyes on you." A voice arose sleepily from one of the nearby beds, prompting a response. "Shuuuuudduuuuup." Ti singsonged at the girl who luckily, unlike Ti'ame, got to sleep in. With the Lucky Lekku's open hours running well into, well the morning, mornings were the only time the girls got time to themselves, except not Ti, not this morning.

Dressing herself and rushing downstairs, she popped into the kitchen to start a cup of caf to cut the sleep from her mind. The interviewee wasn't scheduled to be in for a few more minutes, and Ti fully intended to take advantage of those minutes. Ignoring the datapad that Cait had left out for her to study before the interview, Ti scarfed down a nutrient bar and watched the door, cup of caf in hand waiting for it to cool down as she lounged against the bar.

A women in a black dress enters the lusty lekku through the main entrance as she enters her high heeled shoes clack on the floor. She has a youthful appearance. Her scarlet hair poured onto her shoulders and her symmetrical face was smooth as marble. Her nose was slim and divided her higher boned cheeks like a hill. Her eyes were as red as her hair and were guarded by long velvet lashes. Her thin eyelashes were like clouds but were hard to see under her long scarlet bangs. Her ears were small and nymph like. Her perfectly full and pout lips were provocative and alluring. Her lipstick made them as red as a lightsaber. Her fingernails were painted firetruck red and adorned her soft hands.

Once she was in the Lusty lekku proper, she looks looks around the room and thinks to herself “well this is alright...much better than tatooine...What is this like at full capacity?” She then loudly says “Hello, I’m here for a job interview?”
As she waited for a staffmember to begin the interview she leaned on the curved bar in the center of the room. She stared at the stage and imagined what it is like to a worker here. She also pulled out a brush and stroked her crimson red hair a couple times.

[Ti'ame]

Ti'ame sipped her barely cooled coffee leisurely as the Lusty Lekku's front door opened. Eyeing the applicant as the tall woman walked through the door, taller even than Ti who was no short stack. Announcing herself, she seemed to walk right past Ti'ame to lean against the bar and brush her hair. Hand subconsciously travelling to the gold and silver collar that was ever present around her neck, Ti'ame was used to her presence being overlooked, slaves often being treated more like scenery than people on Nar Shaddaa. That didn't mean it didn't hurt.

Gathering herself, she cleared her throat. "Ahem. I'm Ti'ame and i will be conducting your interview this morning." Shrugging off the pain of being overlooked, Ti'ame smiled sweetly and grabbed the datapad on the bar counter and flicked it on and pulling up the questions that Cait had prepped for her to answer. On top of not wanting to wake up early, Ti'ame was sure that Cait had picked her to conduct the interview because she was the only slave that Cait owned that knew how to read. "Soooooo... What should i call you?" She asked absentmindedly as her eyes scanned the questions on the datapad, eyebrows raising at the seriousness of them. What did Cait think this was, a fancy upper level establishment and not the lower level strip club and whorehouse it was.

Maria was suprised by the voice which to her came as a surprise to her especially because Maria did not notice tiame standing there. She took a minute to reposition herself as to face the person she was talking to. She then said "I’m...Maria...sorry about that I didn’t see you standing there.”

She thought to herself “How did I not see her... she was right there? Well let’s get this started.” Maria quick put the hair comb away and then put her hand out to initiate a handshake with her interviewer.

[Ti'ame]

Ti'ame smiled as the girl apologized. Most of the time they didn't. Glancing down at the proffered hand, she blinked in surprised. Glancing around real quick before reaching out and quickly shaking her hand and then withdrawing just as swiftly. As a slave there were certain things you just didn't do, things that signalled equality. Yet currently Ti’ame held a position of power over the woman, even if fleeting and temporary. It was almost like being equal.

Shaking off the shock, Ti'ame cleared her throat. Glancing around again she gestured to her surroundings. "Welcome to the Lusty Lekku, this is the room where the magic happens." Looking back down at Cait's datapad, she grasped at the first question to bring the awkward moment to a close as quickly as possible.

"So... Do you have any prior experience?" Sipping her caf after she asked, watching Maria from behind the steaming mug.

“Yes I do I had over ten years of experience from slavery to a Hutt and after I was *caugh* freed I became a dancer in order to make money while I was undergoing education. I have danced in various different styles and flavors. I am willing to do anything and nothing is too extreme for me. I will dance in whatever way that I’m told in whatever I’m asked to wear. I’m also not doing this for the money for that is really not Important to me” she answers with a pure white smile. @Arclight

 

[Ti'ame]

Ti'ame blinked as Maria finished her speal. Talk about oversharing. "Oookaaay then." Finger pecking on the Huttese characters. Will do anything. Doesnt care about money.

"So if you got out why keep doing it? Some sort of f-" cutting herself off as she realized she didn't want to know. "Nevermind. But we aren't going to pay you if you'd come in anyways." A small awkward giggle before clearing her throat as she glanced back down at the questions on the datapad.

God these questions are dumb Ti'ame thought to herself as she read the next one out loud. "Have you ever been convicted of any crimes?" Ti was beginning to wonder if this was seriously what Cait was asking people. They were on Nar Shaddaa, everyone was a criminal.

“Technically no but I did murder a Hutt in a place literally without laws but as for my motivations... Eell I want to do it for the thrill...Plus for me this is an exotic location and its just appealing to be in a place new.” She said with another smaller smile she then thought to herself “So am I the only one here who is not a vibroaxe murder...That’s Hutt space for you I guess.”

 

[Ti'ame]

Ti'ame's eyebrows rose about a mile as the girl openly admitted to killing a Hutt. Either she didnt understand how seriously Hutts took such actions, or she had the loosest tongue on Nar Shaddaa. HUTT KILLER. She typed slowly with a single finger pecking at the holographic keys, pausing for a moment before adding an additional note. CANT KEep a secret. Turning off the caps lock midway through typing.

"Well uhh-" Clearing her throat again she continued awkwardly. "Yeaahhh... Personally never killed a Hutt but I guess there's a first for everything." Laughing awkwardly, she skimming down at the rest of the questions before mentally tossing them.

"Alrighty then... Let's move on to the practical demonstration! She announced cheerfully, trying to cut the discomfort she was feeling. Swiping over to the music app on the datapad, she linked it to the Lusty Lekku's speakers and hit play. The song began to play and Ti’ame gestured to the stage. "Well show me what you've got!" A fake smile plastered on her face as she shoo'd the girl towards the stage.

She move on over to the pole which she sung around on to the beat of of the music. Her seductive movement were provocative in nature. As she wrapped it up she used the force to lift herself for a second in order to reach the top of the pole which she then spun around once in a circle before flipping herself up on top of the pole and then with a bit of manipulation from the force she lifted herself up by the palm of her hand. She finished by she slidding down the pole to the bottom. @Arclight @Dread

 

[Ti'ame]

Tapping her foot to the beat, Ti'ame sipped caf and watched the girl dance. Climbing, spins, flips. The girl certainly had core strength, but nothing that stood out in particular or wowed Ti'ame enough to make up for some of the more glaring problems that had come up during the interview.

As the song came to an end, Ti'ame felt a spike of anxiety. Cait had tasked her with conducting the interview, which was new already. But worse, she had given her the power of choice. Charged with the ultimate decision on this interview, Ti'ame took a deep breath to calmed her nerves.

"Not bad not bad." She clapped, stalling for time. She had already made her decision before she had even asked the girl to demonstrate her skills, one that she had been putting off voicing for as long as she could.

"Soooo... yeah. Thank you for stopping in," She started as she led the girl over to the main entrance to the Lusty Lekku, "Unfortunately I don't believe this job is the best fit for you..." She continued with a half hearted shrug. "Your dancing isnt bad, but we try not to make a habit of hiring Hutt killers... Don't worry though! You're still free to come in during business hours and dance at the usual open stage rate!"

Rushing the girl out the door, she uttered a final word of advice. "Sorry it didn't work out, word of advice for the next place... Lie, lie your ass off. Well, have a good day!" Shouting her farewell as the front door slid shut, separating the two women, Ti'ame breathed a sigh of relief as the door locked tight and she headed for the stairs. That's enough responsibility for today, time to go back to bed.
