Queen Kit

1. So far apparently her free time is during the sandstorms which can last for days at a time
2. No mention of languages but she has jury rigged a computer and salvaged a flight simulator data chip
3. “A lot of people worked in teams, figuring they could cover more ground that way. Rey worked alone and always had. It was easier when she was alone; there were fewer complications, fewer things to worry about. The only person she has to trust was herself.”
4. She built her own speeder and rebuilds most of her finds to working condition because they are worth more that way
5. The salvage is all from a battle between the empire & rebellion from years ago and makes up a Basra area called the graveyard that changes with the shifting sands.
6. Most wildlife is predatory and nocturnal. Planet natives are very religious... sandstorm is the breath of their god.
7. Fun location The crackle and spike. Not much remains of a huge shop that crashed and exploded plasma except the keel sticking up, the ground crackles underfoot as the black glass formed by the explosion is gradually worn down back to sand. Spike is probably over 100meters
8. Climbing it she finds a damaged but intact freighter.  Her first thought is what uncle would pay for the ship as is (food, water, tools, a blaster maybe)
9. It would fit a 1 man crew and 3 passengers plus cargo.
10. Some ready meal packs are in tact and there is a water purifying pitcher... also the reactor core is miraculously not dead.
11. She decides to rebuild it for selling for supplies
12. Life on jakku is always being afraid of being robbed of your salvage finds
13. It also contains mimetic sheets to cover it with for camouflage
14. She never once thinks of leaving...
15. Four days of checking she knows what she’ll need to do and still decides to do it. She just wants to fly it into Nima to sell. Shock people and prove she could do it
16. So now she’s findings salvage to repair it and others to sell to survive.
17. She spends 5 months nearly starving working on it alone. Then she gets found out by others because she has to take all her parts to the outpost for cleaning. Even those for the ship.
18. So they eventually find her working in the ship when the mimetic sheets die
19. The other 2 want to leave but don’t argue with her when she says she’s only going to nomad to sell but it’s already damn obvious what they’ll do. They immediately step in to help fix especially for /hyperspace/
20. There’s comments that essentially are blackmail to reveal it before she’s ready if they can’t help but slightly more subtle.
21. Fixing goes much quicker with these 1 findings parts. Rey puts it together and it runs
22. So they fly the ship and it works. all that’s left is fixing the hyperdrive
23. She knows she’ll be betrayed so she goes back to the ship to defend it in the middle of the night 
24. The other 2 aren’t stealing it but she has to defend it from the Teedos (natives) and the others show up and defend it from probably destruction
25. She keeps getting torn between wanting to trust and life saying not to as they say they’ve been defending it for 2 weeks every night while she goes home which she didn’t know
26. They find a replacement for the hyperdrive and fix it
27. They fly it into Nima and land putting it in standby mode and she gets off to tell Unkar... then the engines start again and they take off without her
28. Nothing for it for her. No food etc she’s not angry ‘though because it was a matter of trust and she didn’t trust in herself. She “hadn’t listened” that they wanted what she didn’t.
29. Cause she has to stay because her parents have to find her right?
30. She goes back to her simulator but it’s not the same now that she’s flown for real. End.
31.  

The Jedi Masters were standing in front of Queen Kit prepared to be perfectly reasonable and she just wasn’t having it.  Jedi or not she was certain that the woman by Qui-Gon’s side was more than just a trifle smug.  She thought that she had won because she had another Jedi with her.  Well the joke was on her.  She had run off and left poor little George to be Archived alone and that mattered.

AN: I'm only posting things I've written here.  I'll link the other tumblr fics, but they are not mine so I am not posting.

QueenKit paced in front of the bathroom mirror contemplating how to bring the situation to Lord Venge.  Her comrades might be surprised to realize just how nervous she, the dark lady of the archives, typically was.  Hell they didn’t even really know what her real name was.  Probably because she rarely spent any time outside of Data & Physical Archives she had built up for their grand overlord’s cause; it was her comfort zone.  Avoiding social situations was also made easy by the somewhat temperamental bots she had purchased with some of their funds to help maintain the physical archive zone.

A deep breath as she turned to face the mirror to run through it, for the third time.

 “My Lord Venge.”  That much she could almost manage without her voice turning timid, even without the presence of their overlord.  “If say, ah, one of your faithful servants happened to…  acquire a Jedi, well, could we keep him?”

 Oh dear heavens it sounded more like she wanted to keep a stray dog. Well he was sortof cute, for a padawan.

 And well, I guess he’s really more of a padawan, still has the braid and all. But he was trying to sneak into the archives and the bots programming is still a little buggy so they filed him under J. They stuffed him in the closet and locked it and he couldn’t get out because they filed his lightsaber under L, not to mention the whack on the head, I think he was mostly unconscious before I found him there.  And they really are odd they took out the power cell to file separately but they left the rest of it together and they didn’t file it under P so I’m still looking for that.  Not even sure how they got it out without destroying the thing.”

Oh god she was babbling this was going to be really bad if she couldn’t get this organized before she actually had to confess that she had an injured Jedi Padawan - maybe a concussion? – resting on her couch.  Really she had expected him to run away, she had tried to release him into the wild after she was certain he hadn’t even acquired any data, but the damn padawan was fascinated by the filing bots.

“Oh and until I get the bots sorted out most sentient beings other than myself should probably avoid entering the archives unless they want to be filed.  Good news is that their data profiles were just updated with holo-pics so at least they would be filed under the right letter.”

 Pacing again.   This was NOT her day.

 “They should be able to get the data from their datapads like normal people… well if that’s actually working again.  Actually they should probably just contact me to get it.  Or maybe the slicer?  I think they already hacked the archives right?”

Fuck.  This was going to be a long day.
