[Private to the Admiral]
You and me, we gotta talk.

[And then a mighty assumed conversation happened between Han and the Admiral, where Han renegotiated his deal with the Admiral for some off-Barge job. So, he's going to be doing something ~unspecified~ for the Admiral in exchange for Jacen getting another chance at redemption, since he's all pissy about failing to graduate Jacen way back when in the days of TLV yore.]

[PUBLIC TO ONE AND ALL]
Alright, gang, looks like this is it for me. The Admiral and me, we worked out a new deal, but I ain't gonna get into it. Maybe I'll run into charmers again someday, but for now, I gotta pack up and get my butt in gear.

And Leia? I'll see you again real soon.

[OOC: HAN'S EXIT UP IN HERE. You can assume he had some romantic awesome alone time with Leia-- IF DHA'S COOL WITH THAT-- in preparation for his departure; OTHERWISE, he's jetting. Because he's Han Solo and he's awesome. This way, if we get a Jacen in the future, it means Han fulfilled his deal off-screen. Or, if somebody wants to app Han, they're totally free to with a ~fresh start~ as IDK, some part of his current deal with the Admiral.]

I never did like the Admiral's sense of humor. Let's hope this is a short one.

[OOC: BARGE VETERANS may recognize this voice as Jacen Solo/Darth Caedus, Han's son/first inmate. To everybody else, IDK, he just sounds like some dude. AND THIS MARKS THE END OF ROS-SPAM.]

Med staff: Good news, I'm freein' up one of your beds. This bein' the Barge and all, I'm sure you'll fill it up in no time.

Danny: you and me, we're about to spend some quality time together. Meet me on the deck in ten minutes. I'm gonna count on you not to pull any excuses.

Leia, don't wait up.

Oh, and guys? Try not to tear the place up while I'm gone.

[Warden Filter]
Whoever runs the engine room? You need an extra set of hands, you call me. I've got a way with ships.

[OOC: Backdated to BEFOOOORE Howie's post, because Han wouldn't go "LOL SEE YA" if there was a murderer running around. They'll come back from their manly outing to the CES if/when they hear about the fear gas over the network]

What's taking you guys so long? Didn't think that was a place you wanted to stop and enjoy all the wonderful smells of.

By the way: Danny, Doc? Not bad. Sark? You gotta work on your aim a little there, buddy.

Leia, you know, I'd fight zombies with you any day.

[OOC: I'm assuming Team Chewbacca got back first, because seriously, they were 100% undiluted awesome. Also, Han's totally fine with his naked. You may find him strolling back to his room.]

[Warden Filter]
Yeah, I know, I know. My inmate's a real charmer.

But look, the guy was killed, all right? And as far as he can see, nobody gives a rot about it. I'm not saying it makes what he said right, but sometimes a guy's gotta let off some steam. Lecturing him about how he's wrong isn't gonna get you anywhere. I'm not gonna stop you from trying, I'm just saying: you're wasting your breath.

You got a problem with anything my inmate says or does, and you don't think you're getting anywhere with the direct approach? Come to me. Don't go behind my back and make things worse by dragging other people-- vampires, aliens, droids, don't care-- into it. I'm Danny's warden. Got it?

Now, with that outta the way... What can you guys tell me about a place called "Africa"?

[Private to Tony]
Look, kid, I know you meant well, but the next time you think Danny's up to something, you tell me. I'll handle it. You go and get Aleera or anyone else involved, and it'll only make things worse. Escalates things, see?

[Private to Leia]
This warden gig... [UGH.] Give me a ship and some cargo any day.

[OOC: FEELIN' LESS STRESSED OUT, so Han returns from hiatus early.]

Now there's the piloting I remember. Y'know, this place wouldn't be so bad if it was anyone else steering this thing.

Yeah, yeah, don't remind me about that 'Master' guy.

[Warden Filter; MINUS KIRK AND LEIA]
Right now, I think I wanna get real acquainted with Earth drinks. This... [Pause. He's looking at whatever bottle he's drinking from.] Captain Morgan and me? We're gonna be best friends.

Here's the plan: I'm drinking 'til I can't get up. It'll keep me from doing something stupid. Trust me. So if you're looking to share a drink or a game of cards, I'm in the cantina. If you're looking for me for 'warden business,' I've got a blaster and an itchy finger right now. Don't.

[OOC: AND THIS IS ME WRITING HAN OUT FOR MY HIATUS. He'll respond to tags to this entry, but from here on out, consider him drunk and living in the pub. Enjoy, Mozenrath.]

Admit it: you missed me.

[OOC: OMG WHAT AN EPIC POST. Anyway, it's been a long time since I've written Han, so PLEASE if I do anything that strikes you as weird or OOC, tell me. I don't want to butcher fond childhood memories here.]

I really gotta know where the Admiral learned to fly. The rest of you might not hear it, but this baby ain't had a tune-up in I-don't-even-know-when. No wonder she can't maneuver away from the cosmic pot-holes that're always causing us to take on floodwater.

[Muttered:] Speaking of, I really gotta know where to get some of that spice on the Barge.

hahahhaaahahh

dude

the bleachers are like. WHOaa. we got a party goin' ehere.

coem celebratee the end of SCHOOoooll!.

[OOC: He is HIGH AS A KITE right now. Under the bleachers]

Gee, Admiral, it was real nice of you to decide I needed a few extra weeks in the 'happiest place on Earth.' In fact, I think I wanna extend my vacation for as long as possible, so if you need me, I'll be in the cantina, and you better be supplying some drinks from my neck of the galaxy.

And the next time you pull something like this, I ain't coming back.

[OOC: I FAIL AT "TRICKLING MY GUYS BACK IN SLOWLY." Now Han's back from being stranded at port, Bobby's back from home, Sam's back from home, and the Master's back from his brief revival. ALL THAT'S LEFT IS WEST.]

What the--

WHY IS THERE AN AT-AT HERE?!

[A frustrated sigh]

I got a bad feeling about--

[And then, Han's voice is overwhelmed by the sound of an excited crowd and the clicks of many cameras]

Real funny, Admiral! BEAM ME UP NOW!

[OOC: Han was dropped right into the line for Star Tours. :C]

It's been fun--

Okay. That's what you'd call a 'misrepresentation' of the facts. But what can I say? Funny spice, deadly mazes, giant bugs I hate bugs, meeting my future kids... It's been an adventure.

But I've got things to do and a princess to get back to. If you're still here, kid... sorry. See ya around.









Yeah, yeah, you guys can stop crying now.

WHAT KIND OF A BACKWATER PLANET IS THIS?

That museum I got sent to? It's empty.

[Private to Jacen]
Looks like we both took advantage of that flood, kid. I'd say I'm sorry, but c'mon, we don't need a flood for you to know that wouldn't be true.


[Public]
Alright, so all this talk of changes and progress reports? C'mon, guys. You're starting to make this feel like a real job or something.

I liked that flood where I was smoking spice all the time better.

I'm pretty sure I don't know what 90% of what I said meant. I mean, I'm sure 3PO could come up with a more accurate number, but bear with me here. 'Ark of the Covenant'?

If any of you see the Ark of the Covenant lying around: don't open it! I'm here to take it to a museum!

[OOC: It took a while, but Han finally felt compelled enough to put on his costume. Now he's Parody!Indiana Jones, which is not to be confused with the real Indy (because I haven't watched the films in a while and couldn't do him in character). So he might not make much sense]

I don't get it.

It's a hat. This is what you call a costume?

That was fun. Let's do it again real soon.

Can't believe how much I missed this hunk 'a junk.



...you did a good job, kid. I'll talk to the Admiral about our deal, but remember: play nice or you lose it.

[Private to the Admiral]
I think Jacen's earned the right to some of his Force powers. Nothing nasty, got it?

[OOC: Since abuse of the Force is... y'know, something a recovering Sith needs to overcome, Han's made a deal with Jacen that he can get some Force powers back, little by little, the more progress he shows-- better to slowly acclimate him to them again than to try to rehabilitate him, go "YOU'RE A WARDEN NOW" and give them all back at once. Yeah. So, Admiral, RESPOND!]

Haha. Real funny, Admiral. No, really, what's my actual assignment?

[Private to Jacen]
Her? Geez. Couldn't handle a bigger challenge like that uptight class president chick?

[/Private]

[Private to Birdy]
So, Cinderella, wanna go to the ball?

[/Private]

[Gloriously Public!]
Hey, your last group shower of the year is comin' up, team. Better make the most of it.

Well, this is all nice and disturbing. Lucky me, it looks like I'm 'intact'. It'll take more than magic floodwater to get me or my body acting all goofy.

If that new girl goes anywhere near my son, I will shoot her. Not like "shoot her in the leg" shoot her, I mean shoot to kill. I know I'm a real kidder most of the time, but I'm not joking here.

If somebody doesn't teach her how things run around here, I will.

What a bunch of sweethearts you new guys are. I can't wait for Inmate assignments.

All right, guess it's time for me to introduce myself to the peanut gallery. The name's Han Solo. Stay outta my room.

Oh yeah, and before any of you Inmates start with the tough guy routine, just remember: I may be a Warden, but I'm doin' time here, just the same as you. Only difference between you and me? I was smart enough to avoid judgment day-- and I got a blaster and you don't. Got it?

[OOC: He's just cranky today because he's got no Leia or Chewie or Luke, I GUESS. And he can't go wherever he wants. FEEL FREE TO 4TH WALL HIM. Don't mind]

User Name/Nick: Ros
User LJ: pyroslut

E-mail: rosloops at gmail dot com
Other Characters: Major West, the Master, Sam Tyler, Claude Rains, Bobby Bacala Cobra effing Commander, Neil McCormick

Character Name: Han Solo
Series: Star Wars
Age: 33
From When?: After Return of the Jedi.

Inmate/Warden: Warden. He may be a scoundrel, a pirate, a smuggler, a criminal-- er. Well. Han’s a pretty stand-up guy when you get past all that, and he has overcome his old "loner" mentality to realize the importance of working with and caring for others. But he's actually here because he has some old gambling debts, and he figures this'll help... wipe his record clean before some folks come to collect. (Han left too early last time and ended up getting chased through space by gangsters. I JUST MADE THIS UP. But that’s why he’s back, after a few months in hiding)
Item: A comlink (don't think this means he'll be without his trusty blaster, though)
How Long Have You Been Here?: Just popped in again; in his prior stay, Han was on the Barge for about 4-6 months.
