It's in the beginning of the five year gap. Nura is the new High Seer, Dirk has begun his political career. You decide where these two are. What do they have to say to each other?

Panel 1 Dirk: Nura you look absolutely stunning tonight. When are you going to relent and…
Nura: We’ve been through this before Dirk; my duties don’t leave much of an opportunity for a personal life.
Panel 2, Nura: So why don’t you tell me the real reason you asked me here?
Panel 3, Dirk: Well, you see… I need some off earth support during the next cycle… and…
Panel 4 Nura: You were hoping that as high seer I could…
Dirk: Yes.
Panel 5, Nura: Sorry, Dirk but I don’t think that I can help you.

Ooo Fun! Sursprised more aren't trying this.
Setting: Legion has already been disbanded. Dirk is working public relations for Earth Gov through Circe. Dirk as we'll se in a future flashback has mother issues. He perceives many women as mother figures which he both loves and despises, particularly those with which he is closest, legionnaires.
Panel 1: Dirk: So Thom is still off playing planetary champion?
Dreamy: Not happily. He has his eyes, or better, the owner of a local moopsball team has HER eyes on him.
Dirk: And your eyes?
Panel 2:
Dreamy: Mmmmmm
Panel 3:
Dirk: We think alike!
Panel 4:
...
Panel 5:
Dreamy: No Dirk. We dream alike. Dirk...dreams do not have to come true.
Dirk: (off panel) You know? I will make them.
Dreamy: DIRK! Listen to me. You do NOT want those dreams, your dreams, to come true. Please...this is NOT what you want.

Hah! This is great. Each of you writers seem to really know these characters well, and there's very consistent treatment happening. However, you're each going in different directions with the plot, which I think is fantastic! What a tremendous exercise for all of us!
Panel 1 Dirk: --I'm sorry, Nura, what'd you say? I got lost for a minute, looking at you.
Nura: Oh Dirk darling, stop! I'm big as a house, now!
Panel 2 Nura: The High Seer of Naltor no longer fits in the platinum bathing suit once worn by Dream Girl. You're sweet, though.
Panel 3 Dirk: You've GOT to be kidding me. Nura, you look better than ever.
Panel 4 Nura: Right! Well, love, I have to go! Thank you for lunch. It was fabulous. I have a shuttle to catch.
Dirk: What? You're leaving? Now?
Panel 5 Nura: Dirk Morgna, you've made me feel like a real woman again. This was my first break since becoming High Seer, and you made it fantastic. I really appreciate that. Now, you go back to your life on Earth, and I'll go back to mine on Naltor. Remember, we'll always have Ventura!

Panel 1 Dirk: Gosh! you sure do look purty!
Nura: I still think you need that booster seat Dirk.
Panel 2, Nura: So what did you call me here for?
Panel 3, Dirk: I thought you knew the future, Dreamy?
Panel 4 Nura: I do. And sometimes I have to live through the sleazy bits.
Dirk: Wh-What will I do???
Panel 5, Nura: Nothing that won't make my lawyers richer.
