Cady glances at Kash's nametag again and then looks around at the numbers floating in front of the three Jedi Masters. "Maybe we should just let him win..." Harn frowns and opens his mouth and Cady adds "I mean, everyone is still really tired from this morning, right?"
Harn closes his mouth and Fili glances away. Enja scratches her cheek tuft as she glances the other direction.

They all look like teachers caught sleeping during class!

A hiss makes Cady flinch and she looks to her side just as one of Kash's guards pulls off the glossy gray helmet and Leni shakes her red hair. "You did it, my lord!"
Elara pulls off her own helmet and beams. "An excellent conquest, my lord!"
Tamis giggles as Kash walks past her. "No one dares oppose you, my lord!"
<span class="mu-i">
The death squad is also a cheer squad!

"But victory without a fight..." Kash turns his head toward Cady. "The princess offers a poor excuse."
"That's not true!" Cady crosses her arms and uncrosses them again as she looks up at Kash and then glances at Harn. "They just fought a Sith Lord and his droid this morning, you know. It's the kind of thing that anyone would-"
"Cady?" Fili blinks as Cady looks at her. "How do you know what a Sith Lord is?"
Kash's unwavering gaze is still on Cady. "I am also curious for the princess to reveal what she knows of the Sith."
"Um..."
<span class="mu-i">
Aaaah! I just blurted out too much out-of-character (OOC) information! Even though the existence of the Sith and their connection to the Dark Side of the Force is common knowledge among fans, it's not commonly known in this era, even among Jedi!

Cady turns her face away from Kash and glances up at him making eye contact with her and then she quickly looks away and swallows and glances back up at him again.
<span class="mu-i">
He's paying even more attention to me now!

When Kash finally turns away from Cady, Elara straightens up and smiles. "Will you be returning to the Dark Razor now, my lord?"
"No." Kash looks up at the academy. "Transmit a message from the shuttle. This structure seems a worthy residence for now."
Elara nods. "What of the other prisoners, my lord?"
"Release them." Kash looks at Harn. "I sleep well surrounded by enemies."
Leni tilts her head and looks at Cady's lightsaber hilt attached to her belt. "Should we confiscate their lightsabers, my lord?"
"No. Let them keep their weapons." Kash deactivates his lightsabers and conceals them both up his sleeves. "Prey without fangs is no sport."

These lines are-

"I will allow the princess to demonstrate her power later." Kash looks down at Cady. "After she is rested. Tamis."
The armored girl is instantly at Kash's side. "Yes, my lord?"
"Escort the princess to her room."
"At once, my lord!" Tamis turns toward Cady and walks her through the crowd toward the academy steps. "Come on, your highness!"
When they get inside Tamis stops and looks up and down the hallway and then looks at Cady. "Um..."
(Cady had to lead the way.)
