Aayla cocked her head not understanding the husband and wife bit, though she was beginning to understand what the older boy was alluding to. "I'm not interested in that," she said plainly, gesturing down to her body, which while fit was that of a typical eight going on nine year old girl. "Ask me again in about four years or so and maybe, but until then…" she shrugged.
Grabbing Harry's hand Aayla pulled him out of the room across the hall to the girl's room, with Wulo and a few of the other boys moving after them. Harry didn't fight her, simply letting Aayla drag him along into the girl's room which was just like the boys room. "That's strange," he said aloud, "I always thought girls' bedrooms were supposed to be different than boys."
"We're Jedi, well Jedi in training," said a young human girl, lifting her upper body up off of her bed in some kind of physical exercise which looked like a sit up, though why she was waving one leg up at the same time Harry didn't know. "We're not girls or boys, the important part is the Jedi part."
"That sounds strange but okay," Harry said with a shrug. "Where is your bed Aayla?"
"Boys aren't supposed to be in here," said another girl, a slightly older girl with a look on her face when she looked at Aayla that Harry didn't particularly like. He couldn't put his finger on why though.
"Aayla brought me in, so I figured I should just do what she wants me to yes?" Harry shrugged.
Aayla nodded firmly and pulled him towards her bed, which was situated along one wall towards the middle of the room. It was the bottom of a bunk bed system which went all along the sides of the room unlike the boy's current configuration, since there were four more girls on the ship right now.
Harry looked at the construction, then nodded. "I can change just yours, or I can change both it and the one above it I think without doing anything to the rest of them."
"Thank you Harry," Aayla said before smirking at the other girls all around them. "But I bet the others will want you to after they see what you can do."
"What are you talking about?" asked one of the other girls, looking up from a data reader as other girls did the same, coming out of meditations or looking up from reading or other things . A few of them had been playing some kind of exercise game, and stopped moving over towards the newcomers.
Unbeknownst to Harry and Aayla, both the boys and girls of this clan, as teaching groups among Jedi were called, had already formed cliques. Coming in after the fact, the two of them would normally have been on the outside looking in, not quite ostracized but not welcome either. Harry's abilities however changed that.
"Do you want one like the one we had back in our hidey-hole, or something different?" Harry asked Aayla.
Aayla stroked one of her lekku thoughtfully, then smiled. "Could you make a circular bed with a raised edge, just big enough for me and a blanket? With all the sides soft instead of a pillow?"
"Like a sofa but only for you right?" Harry asked and Aayla's smile widened. Harry nodded thoughtfully, picturing what he wanted in his mind as he closed his eyes. After a few moments he had the picture in his head, and gestured with one hand, not opening them until he was done, shaking his head a little at the concentration that had needed.
A few of the younglings and both knights felt the change in the Force as Harry exerted his will, and suddenly the bunk bed was changed, both levels matching what Aayla had asked for, separated by thick wooden rails. All of them gasped in astonishment, except for Aayla who promptly hopped up into it, grinning at Harry. "This is great!" With that she reached out, pulling him into a hug before craning her neck to look up at the girl above her. "Do you like it?"
The other girl, a smallish girl that looked around six or so with four tiny horns sticking out of her head and light blue hair nearly the color of Aayla's skin, nodded with a happy smile, reaching down and shaking Harry's hand. "Thank you!" she chirped. "I'm Kass Todd, this is amazing!"
One of the other girls, another girl from a race Harry hadn't seen before, moved over to Harry and Aayla. Much like the boys she didn't question how Harry could do such things, she just wondered what she could get out of it. "Do you think I could get him to make that kind of thing for me?"
"Harry, are you feeling tired?" Aayla asked solicitously. She knew that big time magics sometimes tired him out. The shields he'd experimented were the best example of that.
Harry shook his head. "I had a great meal this morning, and we've been eating very well with master Tholme, so I can keep going. Where do I start?"
Halfway through that operation Lily came through the wall having finished her 'discussion' with the ancient master. Though it was more than both of them had realized they were heading into shouting territory and decided to call it a day while they were still somewhat civil than they had come to any sort of agreement.
Illaviel didn't like the fact Lily was here with her son, she didn't like the fact that Harry had already been taught in a school that was not of the Jedi Order, and she didn't like the fact Lily refused to leave him alone. She understood and sympathized with the bits about their background Lily and Tholme shared with her, but did not want to ignore or break the rules of the Order for Lily and Harry.
In return Lily practically told her those same rules, ideas about magic or Force or whatever you wanted to call it were stupid, shortsighted, and self-destructive. She flatly refused to leave her son, almost challenged the Bothan to do something about it, and bluntly told her she would continue to help Harry in his education and his life moving forward. The fact the alien woman literally couldn't stop Lily did not help matters.
