| Thirty years was a long time to be married to the same person. But for Mara, the time had passed so quickly: thirty years did not seem like thirty years. They had raised four children together, fought in a rebellion, watched an Empire die, and a Republic grow, and watched their children grow and begin their own lives. Delia was an NRI operative (and she was more like Leroy than Mara ever cared to admit-probably because she grew up in rebel bases and on smuggling ships), Mason (whom she called Gus) was out on his own doing only the Force knew what, Landon was working as a senatorial aide on Hosnian Prime (and was the absolute opposite of all of his siblings), and their youngest, Aurora, had just gotten married to a rich entrepreneur and moved out to Chandrila to live. It had been a long time, and Mara was having a hard time adjusting to her new life, without her kids,much like her life was before only this time, she wasn't waitressing in sleazy bars on sleazy planets, but her life with Leroy. It felt...odd.
The Aphelion was Leroys now, and it felt weird to her to have to get used to being on that particular ship again. Not that she minded, as it was better than staying home alone all the time, which was what her life was turning into. It wasn't difficult to convince Leroy to let her come back out with him either, in fact, it almost seemed like he wanted her there, which she liked.
"There is not near enough room for shoes in the stateroom, Leroy." Mara announced as she walked up into the cockpit. Of course, she was joking, sort of, as she wasn't quite the shoe hound that she had once been. "What if we end up somewhere and there are sixteen pairs of boots that I absolutely cannot live without? We should turn one of the crew quarters into a closet" she mused as she dropped down into the copilots seat.
