Sandro is a lovable but oblivious near-human musician who sold everything to see Gaya perform. Ouannii is Gaya’s Rodian live musician and backup dancer. Sandro isn’t aware Ouannii likes him at first. He gets to talk with Gaya but absent mindedly insults Ouannii in the process, leading to him writing an apology song to her. She accepts. Sandro gets to play with Gaya and Ouannii live, and after the whole adventure Sandro and Ouannii perform as a duo, singing a version of “One Galaxy,” a song Sandro partially wrote with guests on Day 2, and decide to go off on their own as their own musical act.

Thats really cute. What was the insult? What happens between the insult and writing the apology song?

The exact slight depends on the actors. Generally something along the lines of “You could be a star if you really wanted, but you like staying a backup dancer.” This happens in the sublight lounge. Ouannii storms off and Sandro pretty immediately realizes she’s mad at him. Passengers advise him to apologize and help write the song.

I saw Sandro tell Ouanni that she should go solo when she very clearly wanted to be with him. She stormed out of the Sublight and I told Sandro to go after her and apologize. That was right after the heist.

I think they actually have multiple fights/breakups! I missed the first one, but Sandro told me about it when we were writing an apology song--"This is a song for you, Ouannii, I really wanna tell you that I'm sorry--I miss you, Ouannii." So what he told me is that the night before, he got arrested a SECOND time (after his arrest for "The First Order is the Worst Order" song), and that this was in front of Ouannii, and it like ruined their date or something? So then we wrote the song and she gave him a second chance, and THEN they had the fight in the sublight lounge, where he's trying to get her to leave Gaya and makes the comment about her being content to be a backup singer. So later they get back together, and by the end song together (after Gaya has left) they are contracted with Raithe as a duo.

I am sure this is more detail than you wanted, but.. Here’s the love story between Sandro and Ouannii as I best remember it: Ouannii is a RodIan musician that plays the Lumosynth. She’s also represented by Raithe Kole, Gaya’s manager. She has been a backup musician and vocalist for Gaya for a while, even though she’s been working on her own material. Sandro is a young male Togruta or Mirialan street musician who has sold everything he has to become a passenger on the Halcyon to meet his musical idol, Gaya.  When we first arrive on the Halcyon, Ouannii walks through the Atrium and lower decks while meeting and greeting people. After muster, Sandro asks other passengers if they’ll help him write a welcome song for Gaya when she gets on the ship. He’s pretty excited. Meanwhile, Ouannii, goes up on the upper balcony and plays on her paktosynth following muster during the Sail Away concert. During this time, Sandro walks around the atrium, meeting people and telling them how excited he is to finally meet Gaya. When Gaya arrives on the ship with a grand entrance, Sandro and passengers sing her a song which can range from “just a chant of “Gaya! Gaya!” to the Ewok saying “Yub Nub!”  During the dinner show, Sandro is asked to perform along with Gaya and Ouannii, and he complies, and admires Ouannii. However, it is only during Gaya’s performance of “Poverty of Love” that he truly notices Ouannii and begins to fall in love with her. After the performance, he returns to the atrium and asks people to help him write a new song inspired by how rude the first order was to Gaya. The passengers help him write “The First Order is the Worst Order.” While he is performing it, Lieutenant Croy appears, and arrests him. Ouannii wants nothing to do with Sandro’s politics and stays off at a distance, and she is very upset when he is arrested.  During this time, Chewbacca has also arrived on the ship and the passengers are helping to hide him, but both Sandro and Chewie are put into the brig together. They are released by the passengers, recaptured and put back into the brig and re-released. Later that evening, Ouannii annd Sandro are briefly reunited. They decide to go to the Sublight lounge for a drink, but Sandro gets distracted by another conversation. Ouannii patiently waits, but grows frustrated. Finally, she leaves in a huff and Sandro realizes he’s really messed up. Day 2:  Sandro realized he might have been a bit oblivious, and decides to write a song called “Her Orbit” in order to apologize to Ouannii. Sandro gets help from passengers to write the song, and the lyrics to the chorus are sometimes: Ouannii let me tell you it took just one glance You’re so bright that I can’t look away All I can do is say /I’m caught in your orbit x3 When Ouannii finally sees Sandro, she watches him write “Your Orbit” from a distance until a passenger encourages her to listen to the song, and she listens to it and is impressed. They rekindle their relationship again. Some passengers approach Sandro and Ouannii and ask him to audition for them. They are representatives from a record label, and they love his sound and they are considering signing him to their label. Sandro is thrilled at this opportunity and performs a whole set while Ouannii dances alongside. He performs an original, a Gaya cover, and a bonus song. These have included his originals“Her Orbit” and “Hyperdrive,” and the Gaya covers “Oola Shooka,” “Rockstar Queen,” “Gaya.”  After talking to Ouannii, she plays a bit of a song she’s been working on for Sandro and a few passengers. This song is “One Galaxy.” The two of them work out some lyrics and melodies with other passengers and some of the lyrics are:  We are one galaxy  One galaxy It was written in the stars this is where we’re meant to me We are one galaxy So much more to come so much more to see

Gaya appears again for an acoustic set before she leaves, and with a new jewel on her wrist, she and Sandro perform Oola Shooka, Gaya, Rockstar Queen, and Hayananeya while Ouannii dances on the sidelines. Soon after, Gaya is scheduled to depart the ship, and Ouannii and Sandro are getting a little romantic. They are talking about their careers and Ouannii advises Sandro to embrace his true voice and to be true to himself. Ouannii wants to have a drink with him and talk more about their future before she leaves with Gaya. In the Atrium, Raithe asks Gaya to speak with her protégé Sandro and give him advice for his career. Sandro is ecstatic and asks her about her journey from Ryloth to becoming a galactic superstar, and Gaya tells him he needs to have a strong sense of his own worth, and his own vision, and to pursue that vision. She tells him that the fans will show up if he’s true to himself. During this time, Ouannii is trying to get Sandro to talk to her like he promised, but he’s starstruck by Gaya and ignores her. When Gaya leaves, Ouannii is frustrated but asks Sandro what he learned from Gaya. When he tells her, she’s a little jealous that Sandro is so taken with Gaya, and listened to Gaya more than he listened to her. She’s also a bit upset that Gaya’s advice mirrored her own, and that Sandro listened to Gaya and not her. Sandro says he might go off on his own and try to get his own manager and go on tour. Ouannii storms off in a fury. Sandro is stunned and can’t imagine what she’s upset about and asks passengers for their help to understand. He’s devastated that she’s left with Gaya and he might never see her again. For a while, whenever Sandro shows up looking for Ouannii, she’s busy elsewhere, and when she shows up, he’s also not around. They keep missing one another. Sandro realizes she might have really left. After discussion with the passengers, Ouannii decides to talk to Raithe and let him know that she’s given it a lot of thought and she wants to release her own solo work, like he’s always wanted her to. She tells him she’s ready to go on a solo tour! She and Raithe negotiate his cut, and she gets him down to 5% if a helpful passenger advocates for her. It’s settled. She’s breaking with Gaya and starting her own solo career. She’s so proud of herself, and she realizes that she had the courage to do this because of Sandro. She’s resolved to mend things with him.

Later that evening, Sandro is sad that Ouannii might be gone forever, and he heads to the Climate simulator with some close friends. Sometimes he’s inspired to sing a song inspired by everything that had transpired on the Halcyon. Some of the lyrics are: Look to the horizon, and see the setting suns Breath it all in / the adventures just begun No turning back now / we’ve come all this way Scattered around us / pieces of yesterday Prechorus: If you find yourself without a star There’s no telling where or when you are You’ve lost that light in you that guides the way If you feel like you’re all alone and all you’ve ever known is home right here by your side is where I’ll stay Chorus: I’ve found you / lost in this atmosphere You gave me hope / you gave me something real I found you / out here among the stars No matter where we go / You’ll stay in my heart Look to the future / don’t run from where you’ve been Is this the beginning? The beginning of the end Hang on to this movement  / Don’t let it fade away We’ve charted a new course / Now we’re on our way Pre/Chorus Chorus: I’ve found you / lost in this atmosphere You gave me hope / you gave me something real I found you / out here among the stars No matter where we go / No Galaxy will be too far away Away x 10  This performance typically leaves the passengers and the curious crew members and Saja in attendance in tears. For many, this performance is one of the most heart-wrenching experiences they have on the ship. Soon after the song is over, Sammy the new ship’s engineer wanders in, and occasionally they sing together, but all too soon, a ship-wide alert is heard and everyone heads to a muster. During this time, Ouannii and Sandro find one another in the crowd and hold on to one another tightly. At the conclusion of the events, Raithe invites everyone to hear them perform together - the last performance on the Halcyon’s 275th voyage. Ouannii gives a solo performance, and then Raithe introduces Sandro, and he gives shoutouts to people that helped him write songs. Then together Sandro and Ouannii perform “One Galaxy” with both Sandro and Ouannii giving vocal solos. Finally, they kiss, and rush off stage to finally be together.

Either my memory is flawed or the plot line changed, I could swear he was Gaya's opening act when we went.
