Winnie Montal smiled as Magenta stepped onto the Runner's bridge. "And how are you doing daughter-in-law?" The redhead asked with a smile. "Oh, I'm doing very well." The raven haired woman said, looking down to the other woman's abdomen. "But how are you doing? You're showing already." "Yes. This is going to be a fast pregnancy. And speaking of which, what's the word on the adoption?" Winnie grinned. "When I'm done here, I'm going to Ryloth to pick up the two children. K'Shee is so excited. You should see him, Mama." "Well, if he's anything like his father, K'Shee will be a wonderful father. But we need to get to business here first." Winnie nodded. "What did my son find on Refuge? Why did the mine manager call him in?" "Breakdowns. They look like just old equipment failing. But She felt that there was just too many of them happening." Magenta's jaw tightened. "Do they suspect sabotage?" "It's possible. K'Shee sent some of the equipment to the lab on Coruscant to be tested." Winnie then gave her a funny look. "And the Niemoidians have made another offer for the planet." "It's sabotage!" Mama said angrily. "Has anyone been hurt in these 'accidents'?" "There were two very slight injuries to two of the maintenance workers. Slight burns, that's all. But what bothers me, is why this interest in Refuge? The planet is supposedly mined out, right?" Winnie pondered. "So we thought." The older woman smiled slightly. "Winnie, I want you to check up on something for me. I want you and your people to go over all the old surveyer's information that's been gathered over the centuries for Refuge. See if you can find anything unusual. I'm going to go there myself. See if Stefan and his people can find anything." "You got it boss lady." The younger woman said with a chuckle. "Before I go, I want to know who the short hottie was out by the pool with Peenk. That woman was all over him. It surprised the hell out of me. They're holed up in her stateroom now." "Why did it surprise you?" Magenta asked. "Because I thought Peenk was a lesbian!" Magenta laughed at this. "What made you think that?" "Because, as far as I know, Reema and Kinna are the only people she's ever had sex with. And in case you didn't notice, they are both very female." "She was just waiting for the right man, that's all. And oh, is he the right man." Magenta Montal said with a whistful smile. Winnie stared in shock at her mother-in-law. "You've had sex with Peenk's man? Is he the father?" "Don't look at me like that. I didn't know she was having sex with him when I first met him. And yes, he's the father. Which reminds me, I have some things to tell you about Joshua Kirk. You'll all be told in person. I don't want to risk this getting intercepted on the holonet." "Oooo, a conspiracy?" Winnie asked with a chuckle as they left the bridge.
