Take My Sight 11/25/2021
Tesara Anerin — 11/25/2021
Tesara is relieved that Ava's visit provided so much helpful information. Her heart is lighter knowing that Jack is alive and recovering on Baklid. When this is all over, I'm going to Baklid to tell him how I feel about him
Then she remembers the terrifying events ahead of her and prays she survives it to do that. The injector is in her pocket. The time has come, but she knows she must calm herself, center herself in the Force before doing this (admittedly insane) thing. She knows Durro is in his room, likely meditating, and she owes him a conversation about what happened in the flight deck. She knows Astra is spending precious time with Roza before Ava has to take her back to Baklid. She knows the professor, Ryan and Mishka are chatting in the kitchen and that Nova is packing items she wants to take back with her to Baklid. Nova's idea about the Dunium thorns on Lanus was nothing short of brilliant. If they survived this recon mission, that would be their next stop. The Jupiter One was full of people and she needed a quiet space to ground and center herself. She approached the professor first.
"Professor Kenobi, may I return to your ship and take some time to prepare to do this...thing? With the injector?" She asks, not actually knowing what to call what she is about to do.

@Tesara Anerin "Yes, let us go to the Ship. Make sure to let someone know where you are going so they do not interupt you. Your commlink and anything that may disturb you will be removed at the ship, and as we stated for safety you'll be in my Trip Harness." The professor then paused. "In order to lessen the potential damage to your Psyche, you must be mentally prepared. I recommend fresh robes and a clean outlook. Cleanse your body and mind. It is easy to get lost in the stressors of the past and future to distract if you let such things linger. Psychologically, you must understand that while I will support this endevaour, I caution against this path. The possibility exists where you will become like Astra, a mind fractured if unprepared for the events. Do you understand?"
Tesara Anerin — 11/25/2021
“Yes.” She answered, feeling any tension begin to ease. The professor knew what he was doing and knew what he was talking about. It made her feel better to know she was in such good hands. “I absolutely agree, Professor. I will take the time to bathe and put on fresh clothing, and then I will plan to spend an hour or so in the room making sure to prepare as well as I can for this. Thank you for the offer of your ship and this room and the harness and…”. She trailed off. “Everything.”

@Tesara Anerin Would walk to his ship, taking his time to enjoy the briskness of the walk. HE would pause to talk to Handyman, placing the ship on complete blackout with a note on the door telling others to Go Away. Comm Links were placed in a box near the door, and he would speak to the Botler about replicating the poison. He would also ask for Handyman Botler to work on a neutralizing agent seperately. A poison must always have a counter, lest it runs rampant. @TheTraveler .

Tesara will do as she said, bathe and dress in a new set of robes and go to the room to meditate. (((Unless there is something the professor wants to do or say before she goes into meditation)))

Nothing more to say here()
Tesara Anerin — 11/25/2021
It’s a little more than an hour later when Tesara comes to find the professor. “Professor? I’m ready.” She says quietly.
@Professor Kenobi
Professor Kenobi — 11/25/2021
@Tesara Anerin Takes a good hard look at Tesara and judges her with Sense Motive. He analyses everything about her, and the demenaour in which she represents. After a stark appraisal the man would nod his approval. It mattered little what he thought as long as she internally was ready. He would escort her into a room upon his comfortable ship that was arranged with a much softer lighting. The walls were drapped with various pleasing patterns and even had a beaded curtain they walked through that tinkled lightly. The air here was freshly piped in from outside and scrubbed to be as non offensive as possible. An arrangement of incenses were on display and with a gesture he brought her attention to such. There were various simple shaped toys, a rug of some cultural persuasion and even a small refridgerator with various easy to grab beverages and snacks. "Meditation Room. Here I come to plunge deep into the innerworkings of my own mind and make sure that I find balance. I share this with you Tesara, as my Student you will always be free to come here to indulge. I find it important to understand truly what psychotropics may do to the mind. To understand your default state, you must understand your limitations." The injector was placed on a simple wooden table with four legs that appeared to be collapsable. While various seating was offered, Professor gestured towards the center chair which was one with restraints. "Due to the nature of being a creature of the force, you must decide for yourself if you would be content and copacetic bound down. I know not the effects of this cocktail, though the chemical markers are replicatable with the blood provided. Tesara, this journey you take alone. When you come out, you will be markedly changed. I will be on this ship as a Shepard and Guru should you need me for a time. Choose your seat, and we will begin." bean bags, the bound chair, a couch, recliner. All were on offer.
Tesara Anerin — 11/25/2021
“Thank you, Professor. I have seen firsthand what happens to the body when the injection happens. So I don’t ruin any of your lovely space in this room I will choose to be bound.” She goes and sits down and gets comfortable. “And thank you for the use of this space. I will likely take you up on it with one of your books.” She smiles at him. He can tell she is calm but there is a slight shakiness to her voice as she speaks. “Thank you for assisting me with this. I could not do it on my own.”
@Professor Kenobi
Professor Kenobi — 11/25/2021
Professionally makes sure that she's locked in tight enough to be bound and not tight enough to restrict blood flow. "Good Luck." Injects her and walks out. @Tesara Anerin
(booyah)

((Ok @TheTraveler bring it on))
TheTraveler — 11/25/2021
(OOC: @Players of New Horizons The following is OOC for all Characters except Professor Kenobi. @Tesara Anerin PM for further information)
Professor Kanobi moved near Tesara and slowly moved the injector in to place and pressed it against her arm. The unit started to make a humming sound and the needle pressed into her flesh. Once fully inserted, a second clicking sound as the three plungers started to push their contents in to Tesara’s body.
And right away, the effects took hold. Her body violently shook as her eyes rolled into the tops of her eye sockets. It was all Professor Kanobi could do to hold her still while the injector was still working. Using one hand to hold her still, and the other to hold the injector still took all his effort. Realizing that he needs help, he calls for Handyman. With the added help, the injector finally pumped the last of the cocktail into her arm.
This opened a whole new wave of reactions across Tesara’s body. Her arms and legs pulled against her restraints with so much force that her muscles outlines could easily be seen. Her mouth started to form as small lines of blood started to appear where the straps met bare flesh.
Professor Kanobi moved quickly and grabbed an extra strap and pulled it in to her mouth and held it just as her mouth snapped shut. Only moment before snapping her own tongue off. Her neck muscles surged as she tried to move her head and then a scream erupted from her throat of the likes Professor Kenobi never heard before. One of pure horror and anguish.
Her whole body went still as if she had died. And to the normal observer that might have been the perception. But not to Professor Kanobi, he knew that she was still among the world of the living. Her breathing barely noticeable, her lips started to move. He carefully pulled the strap from her mouth.

“I see them……” she said in a near whisper. “There not coming, they’re here….everywhere. All around us….watching us…..seeing us….”
She cried out, “Mother!” her voice filled with distress. “Tesar…..” she screamed. “I see them, its raining always raining. Two” she paused, “three black holes….no….four!” She cried, “no…..their fighting, red on blue,” her eyes shifted from side to side. “Their in a large glass room with a crystal within it.” Her eyes narrow…. “We’re trying to save EVERYONE….” Her voice curled, “you can’t resist the Will of the Force…”
Tesara moved about shifting, “there is a vail, but it’s so thin…so weak…..an ancient Sith artifact,” She shifted about again, “Mother! Watch OUT! A woman with no eyes, chanting while others fight to protect her. Red on blue….red on green! Aman….no….why…..”
“I see her,” she whimpered, “Astra…..” “She is floating……their drowning her….” Tesara became panicked, “no don’t cut her….get your hands off of her!” Tesara fought against the straps hard to get free.
"Focus Student! Focus! The Swarm!" Says the Professor, gleaning that Tesara is now in a zone far beyond his reach.
Tesara calmed herself, “Yes…the Swarm…I can….I can see them…” she started to tremble with fear. “He can see me….He CAN SEE ME!” she cried in horror. She continued to shake we her eyes shifted from side to side, “they’re everywhere and nowhere!” She started to cry, “I see a black moon raising over a baren world. And the keeper, I see him…” though her voice was uncertain. I can’t, I have to look away…his sight…my sight….I see there is a focal point of power that draws in the rivers of the galaxy. So much destruction. So many times…deep are the rivers….so deep…..” She continued to shake, “The Keeper…I see him coming to me….walking…floating…” her voice breaking in terror, “four arms…..and….and…no…..he has no face!!!!” Her body started to shake and spasm again.
"Focus away from the Keeper and onto the Stars. Do not get lost in a battle of wills. Find a Constellation and Break Free and Away!" Professor Kenobi instructed.
She screams, “I can’t get away,” She struggles in the straps and screams out loudly at her body spasms, “My sight!” she cries out… “He sees me!” Then her voice filled with more horror, “no…they see me!”
She screams long and loud as her entire body tenses up. Professor Kenobi noticed two lines of blood seeping Tesara’s fresh rob. Handyman went to work on the strange wound. Tesara’s eyes closed at her body stopped moving once more. Her head slumped to the side.
“Professor,” Handyman said as he withdrew black vapor from the wound. He sealed it in a glass jar. “My sensors don’t record what my vision processors are telling me is in the jar.”
