The Mandalorian sat in an empty booth of the crowded cantina, walls only illuminated by colorful bulbs on strings around hooks and brackets. Everyone was wearing untypically bright clothes, necklaces and crowns strewn with jars filled with dazzling glowing bugs.
He hadn't seen a community so...eccentric, in a while. The child giggled and reached for the lights.
He was waiting for a bounty with quite a high price, though he wasn't sure how he'd find the tall green Abyssin in this vibrant mass. It was supposed to be a quick job, but the more he looked, T-shaped visor scanning every person that came into view, the more his hopes sank that he'd be able to make back to the Crest and get an early start to getting some rest.
He hadn't been paying attention to the band, nor the performers that danced and sang. That is, until the already dim room subdued to only a soft glimmer around the perimeter.
Suddenly a spotlight fell on a shadowed figure in the middle of the stage, old condenser microphone gripped tight in one hand. You stood almost nervously at the edge of the platform, chip-toothed grin obvious even from the back table.
With nothing else to see in the lively but dark room, his helmet trained on you, as well as the child's attention. He had never seen someone that looked quite like you.
With a domed brow ridge that connected with your nose, it made your large e/c eyes pop, something glittering in the speckles of...well he wasn't sure what color.
You wore an emerald green cloak, sleeves rolled up to your elbows, revealing a tight red and white striped shirt tucked into your brown shorts, where socks with the same pattern reached the edge of your thigh. A bright red hat adorned your head, the fluffy white cuff hiding most strands of your hair. The only shoes you had were a pair of battered brown boots, having seen better days.
"Hia." You grinned sheepishly, obviously a bit drunk. "I'm Y/n. Now...I have a friend, in another sector at the moment, but he shared this song with me. He made it for these guys, the uh....The Guardians of the Malexy or somethin'. Anyways, this goes to my pal Bzerm....Bzermikit...okolok!" You cheered, and so did everyone else.
Mando tilted his head, unknowingly in sync with the child, as you took a deep breath, armed with only a microphone and the band of oddly dressed people behind you, the guitarist started to strum an uneven tune.
"Out on the third planet closest to the sun,
There's a special celebration and it sounds quite fun.
A jolly old fellow brings toys to everyone,
On a holiday they call Christmas."
You turned to the crowd, eyes widening even more if possible.
"Now, I'm not gonna lie, it makes no sense to me
But here's what earthlings told me about this Christmas mystery~"
Your soft voice drew out into silence, until the drummer shouted out while ringing bells.
"One, two, three, four!"
