*Cate hears a tap at her chamber door on Christamas morning.* Cate are you there? *Eusobious says as he opens the door peeks his head in.*

Merry Christmas, Euso. Come on in. *Cate says as she smiles at him.*

Merry Christmas, Kate. I wanted to thank-you for your gift, and give you one in
return.*He replies as he comes through the door, followed by a human-shaped, metallic, purple-skinned protocol droid.*

What is this Euso? *Cate says in surprise, getting up from the couch where she had been studying some healing holocrons.*

I thought you could use a translator droid to understand what I'm saying.* He answers jokingly,winking then smiling at her. Cate laughs.*

Thanks,Euso. I think.*Giving him a hug.*

You're welcome, Cate. Merry Christmas.*He says returning her hug, and then leaves.

*Merry Chirstmas, Euso. Well what am I going to do with, you? *Cate inquires of the droid, putting her hands on her hips.* What are you called by the way?

*The droid answers in a clippped,precise female voice.* I'm human relations cycle 2 protocol droid DEE-OH TEE Two. I'm here to serve you, Lady Caitlin.

*Cate laughs* It's Cate, DOT2. I think I'll call you Dots.

Of course, Lady Cate. *DOT2 replies formally.*

Uh,um. That's just Cate,if you please Dots. If you need to be formal it's Healer or Jedi Cate.

As you wish Jedi Cate. *Dots said in her precise, proper voice.*

*Cate shakes her head,then laughs.* Life has just got more interesting.
