A little Togruta girl stands outside Naitia's private room at the temple, knocking at her door. She looks a tiny bit nervous, and bits her lip, while shifting her weight from one foot to another, as she waits for permission to open the door.

Naitia is sitting on her bed, reading a datapad, when someone knocks on the door. She reaches out with the Force and feels the nervous precense of the young girl. She smiles as she lays down the pad on her bed and rises to her feet.
"Enter!" She folds her hands and looks waitingly at the door.

The Togruta girl nervously opens the door, and steals a quick look around in the older Jedis chamber. The girl looks to be around 7-9 years old.
"I..." She studders slightly "Knight Naitia, I have a message for you"

The room is decorated with not that many furnitures. A desk in the corner, a closet, a bed and a chair that stands close to the door, where Naitias Jedi Robe is hanging on. Her bed stands in the corner on the opposite site of the room as the desk, where several datacards lay, as does Naitia's lightsaber.
Naitia smiles comforting at the young girl.
"Thank you. What is it?"

The girl looks around, wide-eyed. It is not often she's allowed into the room of a Jedi Knight.
"The council wishes to speak to you in one standard hour, Jedi Naitia" The little girl smiles slightly.

Naitia's smile faints a little, but returns, when she sees the girl's wide-eyed face. Wondering what they want to speak to her about this time.
"Thank you." She smiles again at the girl. "You can tell them I will be there!"

"I will Miss!" The little girl lights up in a smile. She hesitates for a moment, lingering, as if there's something she wants to say.

Naitia can see in the girl, that there obviously is something else she wants to say, and still smiles as she asks.
"Is there something else?"

"Miss Naitia, I just wondered...is Master Chapaa'ai as scary as he looks?" She looks down, obviously embarrassed. She slides her foot back and forth over the floor.

Naitia smiles even more broad and makes a big effort not to laugh.
"Dear girl, no. He might look scary just because he's as big as he is. But he has a big loveable heart. He also seemed scary when I was at your age. But I learned better." She smiles againg comforting at the young Togruta.

The girl looks up at Naitia, searching her face for any sign of being mocked, but smiles a bit nervously, when she finds the older student isn't making fun of her in any way.
"Sometimes I get really nervous when he's around. Him, and Master Yoda too!" The girl seems to have warmed up a bit.

Naitia tilts her head, taking a closer look at the girl, sending her a warm look.
"There's nothing to be nervous about. They're both here to help us, learn about the Force. And they're not the type of persons who bites your head of, just because you failed in something or said something that weren't well thought of." She smiles a little teasingly, as she moves closer to the girl and lays a hand on her shoulder.
"It may be, that your nervous about them, because they're the highest members of the council. But they're good teachers. And you will learn all you need from them until you are chosen to be an apprentice by someone."

The girl's eyes seem to sparkle, as Naitia takes the time to actually take her seriously. Clearly, she's not too used to be listened too - or maybe she's just normally too afraid to say anything, to actually know how it feels to be taken seriously. She blinks a few times, then almost jumps.
"Oh! Miss! I'm so sorry. I just came to give you the message. I should be going!"

Naitia nods and looses her grip in the girl's shoulder.
"It's all right. You can always talk to me if you want to." She nods again. "Thank you for bringing me the message. I must prepare to meet with the council."

The girl nods, and looks up and down Naitia. It is not everyday the younglings get a chance to talk to someone older than themselves.
"Of course!" She walks to the door.
"May the force be with you" she adds, before going out the door.

"And with you!"
The door closes and Naitia turns to go out to the bathroom to freshen herself up a bit. She looks at herself in the mirror and splashes a little water in her face, before pulling out the elastic that has her hair in a untidy ponytail.
She smiles a bit at the thought of the young girl, who'd just been in there. She reminded her a lot of herself, in that age. Always nervous about whether she was doing her excercises well enough that it would satisfy Master Yoda og Chapaa'ai. But she learned later, that marks wouldn't mater much in the case of the Jedi.
She combs her hair, and pulls the bangs away from her face in the same elastic she'd just pulled out. Dries her face in a clean towel and then goes back into the room.
The datapad she had been reading before, is still lying on the bed. She picks it up and walks over to the desk and sits down, before rummaging a bit in the cards on the table and trying to put them in some order. She had a lot of datacards she still needed to be read before returning them to the archive, but now was not the time.
She looks at her crono. She still has some time, before the meeting. But better sooner than later. She could take a detour, and go to the dinning room to have a snack, and then go up to the council chamber.
She rises and goes over to the chair, picks up her robe and pulls it on. She walks to the door, opens it, but stops in the doorway, remembering something she's forgotten. She turns, and summons her lightsaber from the table. It floats in midair and lands in her hand, and are then attatched to her belt. Wouldn't do, just letting it lying around.
She leaves her room and walks down the corridors towards another part of the temple.
