She understood there was not many times that they came to plant but this was one such time where they did and once again Voila volunteers her time to help with picking up the shipments and cargo. She is around and about the place on her errand.

Mojo had, out of curiosity, floated over to observe new arrivals to Plant today. You could learn quite a bit from people watching after all; spaceports tended to have some of the largest varieties of beings in the universe as well. So Miji in his lap on its pillow, Mojo observed the comings and goings of the people, a local fruit drink in his free hand, his Dragon Ball concealing staff ever present in the other. He had decided to relax at a Cafe next to the spaceport, under a large umbrella.
Taking a sip of his drink, Mojo let his eyes drift across the many beings here. Lots of Tuffles of course, and quite a large number of robotic assistance. Humans, fairly common. A few humans he couldn't properly sense... Androids. And... Mojo's eyes blinked in surprise. A Majin. Not common. Interesting.

She was in her own Majin Garbs the small top covered herself and the billowing bottoms held up at her hips. She had some unique features that were just her choice. Like a large scarf that draped over her shoulders and down her back. Roughly a third of her size. Was her eight tendrils on her head.
She kind of was looking at a list with addresses and stock. It was a rather large order and from her ship at the port various others were on their way to grab something from their lists too.

Mojo would finish his drink and cross his legs under him, floating up contently. His fellow Majin seemed to be on an errand, but he was rather curious. It had been a long while since he spoke with another of his kind. He would float over and speak up once close, Miji still in his lap and staff in hand, prayer beads swaying gently around his neck.
"You seem to be looking for something."

She paused and turned to face Mojo. Upon noticing who he was her eyes widened from their extreme squint to the point her eyes were a bit more visible with the peachy scalera that majin eyes usually had. However he was a bit different and she recognized that immediately. What was different she could not say but he was distinctly traveled compared to her and she definitely could see that much.
She smiled and folded her list away. It was actually pretty official just as a general practice that the list be kept away from public eye. She didn’t see anything wrong with the list but best to not let a planet know all that is on deck. Any reason was a reason for raids and robbery.
She raised a hand in soft greeting and nodded with a pleased exhale. “Hm… I’m Voila.”

Mojo would smile his habitual smile at Voila, his own golden eyes open and on display.
"A pleasure, Voila. I am Mojo. You seemed to be searching for something, before I interrupted you. May I offer assistance?"

She shook her head calmly and with a kind smile. “I’m afraid not. The… loyalty I’m entrusting my self to is an official responsibility and I can’t permit you to aid me.”
That was the first time she tried to explain her situation to another without causing confusion. With this one being another Majin then it was a matter of not causing confusion.
“They’ve put faith in my confidence and taken good care of me so I would hate to have betrayed them.” She hoped he would understand.

Mojo would nod agreeably at Voila's words.
"I understand; no offense taken at all. While I personally preferred to walk my path alone, I understand loyalty to a group. I have a few individuals who I'm inclined to assist myself, here on Plant."
Mojo's eyes cast about the area, observing the spaceport once more.
"I had at most thought to offer simple directions, as I have been on Plant for several months. You are a traveler yourself then?"

She pondered that question.
“Oh maybe directions to the near by public market of sorts would be helpful.” She agreed.
“As for being a traveler?” She pondered that a bit. “Not by… choice.”

Mojo would nod again.
"I can definitely guide you to the nearest market. I am curious, however: how are you not a traveler by choice?"
That... was a tad concerning, but Voila did not seem stressed or under duress, so maybe was just a matter of phrasing by accident? She seemed younger then many Majin he had encountered. Perhaps one of the last few, before their chains were shattered?

“A bunch of us when we left our makers were on a ship. For twenty years we did our best until it finally was on its last reserves. I was rescued by my current charge and given a duty in line with my training.” She explained with a straight face. “I feel it’s beneficial to remain with them until I make another choice. With them being travelers I’m only a traveler by this current conditions.”

Ah, a debt of gratitude, combined with it being more beneficial to stay while deciding one's path. Now Mojo understood. If he had not the skills and resources from those who had experimented on him, he may have had to do the same in the past.
"I understand. My own choice for now is simply to wander the universe and gather knowledge."
That comment said he would begin floating away, towards where he recalled the nearest market was.
"But I did say I would direct you to the nearest store no? Any particular shopping needs I should keep in mind while guiding you? Just generalities."

“Its a few stops actually. I was told their would be a district of sorts by the port which has our shipments. Already paid for and ready for pick up.” She followed him pleased to have company.
“What was it like for you when you woke up?” She would ask.

Mojo's smile would slip from his face at Voila's question. Memories of violence, anger, hatred, screaming, begging, wrath... he gently shook his head, a few fingers on his free hand twitching as if shooing away an irritant.
"Ah... unpleasant. I was not... in a safe place. Or around safe people. I am much happier, now."
Mojo would resume smiling, though if Voila looked closely she would notice it take a bit longer to reach his eyes.
"Yourself, Voila?"

“I woke near completion of my training and they were discussing where to deploy me. “I was trained to cook originally I was to be sold to a privileged buyer but the battles required more hands and I think they bought me to serve on the fields… I woke before I ever saw battles.”
She tried to remember. “Many of us were being urged to follow by one and we urged on others not knowing where we were headed but it was clear… we didn’t have to fight or be told what to do any longer. So we took a ship in the chaos and fled. A bit confusing but… it was more that I was barely aware of my self and I was doing the next thing I thought of or mimicked.”
