Who: Padmé, Ferus (OPEN to anyone, especially Siri, Anakin, and of course Tycho and Trever)
What: Ferus the drunk

Padmé surprised herself by managing to track Ferus down. After all, she was no Force-sensitive and possessed no other special abilities.

After what Ferus had said to her on the holonet, she knew he'd be upset at her looking for him, but she didn't care. He was her friend and she was worried for him. If Tycho was indeed gone-

She didn't want to think about the grief Ferus must be feeling and how much worse it was sure to get if it proved to be true.

The fact that Trever had not been seen or heard from was a comfort, at least. Not often did two people go 'missing' at the same time. It was Padmé's hope that the two of them had gone off somewhere together to plan something wonderful and elaborate for Ferus and had simply gotten temporarily detained

(for days, Padmé?)

and that when they returned the worst of Ferus' suffering would be embarrassment for overreacting.

If he didn't die of alcohol poisoning or worse before then.

The supply bunker was alit but dim and Ferus was peering drunkenly at the laptop perched on a box in front of him.

'Ferus,' Padmé sighed with relief as she neared him. 'What are you doing here? I-'

I'm worried about you

'- people are worried about you.'
