On the street, putting up posters.
"A strange collection of creatures. I'd hope you may find them."
"A little eclectic, I'll grant you. But very dear. Thanks... keep an eye out? It's quite a lot of money for their safe return."
"I'm not a bounty hunter. I'll keep an eye out through."
He pulls off his cowl. "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to say anything offensive. It's not really bounty, as such. I'm just told it's common practice to provide an incentive for the finding of lost... pets."
Pets? These are his gods. It feels so disrespectful to say it, but this is not his world.

I'd be grateful. I hate to think of them being so alone.
Adrax raises his hands, excusing himself. "No trouble. I didn't take any offense. You're correct, of course. I'm just not the kind of guy to request a reward," he then smiles comforting.
I’ve a soft spot for animals. Have they been missing long? Is it okay to feed or pet them?
"I'm told that's a little rare around here." Lex breaks into a smile. "I'm not exactly a stranger, but it's nothing like my world."
Yes! Please do. Feed them.
[He's not sure how much to say. The brief is not to draw unwanted attention to how alien he and the anori are, but it's difficult. People do need to know that they're special, and lost.] They're a little more vulnerable away from home. But yes, it's permissible to pet them. They're somewhat used to being adored.

"I'm not from here myself," he nods at the other. "I grew up with different ideals. But it's always a good idea to respect planetary customs. A reward usually gives an incentive aswell."

If I find them, I assure you they will be well cared for until you can get to them. I’ve got a lot of space, and pets of my own. Would they be alright around a toddler?
'My world' is ambiguous, it could mean another country, or even the next small town. But Planetary customs means, well, planets. The wraith relaxes visibly, and feels more able to open up.
"I try to respect Terran customs. They don't make it easy though. Which world are you from?"
"I try to respect Terran customs. They don't make it easy though. Which world are you from?"
They love children and would never harm them. Even the snake. I'm her... I mean she's my particular responsibility.
That would be correct. While he do look human he's definitely not from Earth. Nor the Milky Way.
"I'm from Balmorra. A heavily industrialized world in the colonies. Can't say I've heard of "Terran" before but there are thousands of worlds and my training is... lacking. My master was... captured by the Empire. He's probably dead now."

Oh I don’t mind Snakes, I don’t think Sunshine would either.
Oh, I’m Cassie, it’s a pleasure to meet you.
Lex is also from another galaxy entirely. He's quite pleased to meet another offworlder. Wraith are naturally curious, and it's always of interest to meet other offworlders.
"Oh, this is Terra. I'm actually from Keldra... but gods; that's awful. I'm so sorry." He can't help it, but due to his own culture, he assumes master also means mate.

"Terra" he tastes the words in his mouth. "Not exactly where I wanted to end up," he muses.
He then bows his head a little as show of the others word giving comfort.
"For a Jedi, there's no death, there's the Force. He'll live on in the Force. I appreciate your sympathy." Though his Master was certainly NOT his mate. Jedi do not form romantic attachments.

She's called Keshar, or Kesh, and she's quite gentle. [It's obvious from his voice he misses her.]
Lex. It's nice to meet you too. Look, there's a generous reward for their safe return. I'm hoping they're at least together. [Which would be strange, if they were ordinary animals. How does a wolf stay close to a fish? Lex hands Cassie a card, with his cell number.] But even if you only find one of them, please let me know.

"Jedi? I used to know someone from your world, well, your .. galactic vicinity." He now realises his error. Just as well he didn't put his foot in it.
"For us too, death isn't the end. It's just hard having to wait so long to see people again."
"For us too, death isn't the end. It's just hard having to wait so long to see people again."
Oh, she sounds lovely. If I see her I am certain we will have a lovely conversation.
I’m not interested in a reward. Are they good friends
"You have heard the legends of old? The Jedi was once a great force of good in the galaxy. Not anymore. Now we're all but wiped out. My master was one of the last Jedi," he sighs. "I've been looking for others... but to no avail."
"Patience is a virtue. It's difficult but something you must push through."
"Patience is a virtue. It's difficult but something you must push through."
"I've heard very little, really." He's interested in what the stranger tells him. "I've heard that these Jedi were something called 'force sensitive'. Though I'm not sure what that means."
"It's not so easy to be patient if you have to wait for eternity. Not that I'm eager to die. I enjoy life too much."
