"Sorry that I don't know who you are. Haven't paid the galaxy much mind in a little while." The man told Noah the fate of ADI. All those men he'd left behind on Rondan, all those promises he'd tried to keep, he could have a second chance to make those right. He looked the man up and down...

"I'm assuming you're the one looking for me..." Noah looked up, taking a sip of a brown liquor nursed in the crystal glass in front of him. He eyed the man, up and down, asking himself more questions than he would've ever cared to say out loud. Smoke curled about the bar, waitresses' heels...

Thread Title Reference Corellia, Outskirts of Coronet City, 1756 Hours Noah walked down the sidewalk of the crowded freeway on the outskirt of Coronet City, landspeeders cruising with their lights reflecting off the dusky post-rain pavement. He dragged on his vaporizer and puffed a white...

"It's... Safe enough." Noah answered hesitantly. "I just need to gear up and say goodbye to some people. We won't be more than an hour out of the way, I promise. It's a couple blocks this way." He shoved his thumb over his shoulder. As he began to step, the girl discarded her cigarette and...

Noah thought for a moment. The girl had heart; spunk even. He took another rip from the vape and blew clouds from his mouth and nose, letting the curling tendrils of the vapour pour from him rather than exhaling it forcefully. Sure, he was good, but was he good enough for this young girl to be...

Noah stepped forward, pushing her up against the wall as the thugs passed by. He kept his face close to hers, the thugs passing him a dirty look as he carried on. It was a knee-jerk reaction, the only thing he could think of. People were uncomfortable with public displays of affection, so Noah...

Noah felt the cybernetic arm reach for him, felt its cold grasp around his upper arm. He flinched, unsure of the intrusion into his personal space. The girl couldn't have been older than 16, but she carried herself with an almost arrogant pride. It wasn't in her body language, but it was in her...

Noah looked at Asher. His eyebrow still peaked, confused and mildly annoyed. This recruit just decided he'd personally announce his arrival to the commander? How pretentious can you be? "Okay..." Noah shook his head a shrugged, one hand resting on the doorframe. "What, you want a bloody...

Jacen felt the Force presence before he heard the knock on the durasteel door behind him, just audible over his music. Believing it could only be one other person, he almost immediately rolled over on his back and shot up, sitting with his legs over the edge of the cot. He flipped his dataphone...

"Not a fing, luv." Noah winked, giving her a charming smile that he'd acquired over the years. He tried not to overthink the way Rae had responded to him, confirming that she too found it a pleasure to see him. Am I?... No... Most likely... I'm overthinking this... I must be... He blinked his...

"Commander Noah Jacen, commanding officer of ADI Marines." Noah Jacen offered his hand to Brekket. If the new officer took the man's hand, a firm shake would be exchanged. Noah bowed his head in Rae's direction, releasing Brekket's hand. "Lt. Jarrus, it's a pleasure as always." Every time he...

Thread Title Reference Crown Space Port, Coronet, Corellia, 1337 Hours It was the next morning. Well, more like afternoon. Noah didn't care too much, but wheels were up at 1400, so he was here with a pounding damn headache as part of his hideous hangover from the night before. During his...

They both ended awkwardly. He ended his statement with vague implication, she ended her response with repetition simply because she wanted to sound like she was done speaking. It sounded like they were two halves of different conversations, but he needed to say something to make it coherent. He...

Noah thought for a minute, his mouth wanting to form words but not remembering the right ones. His mouth moved, then stopped, then his mouth closed as the words died in his throat. He would never forget the blank, empty, lifeless eyes of that boy on the sidewalk, the charred hole through the...

Noah pressed himself further into the sandbags, the fire from the machine impacting closer and closer, rounds zooming just in front of his face as he breathed rapidly. He was scared. He was bloody well fecking terrified. Fear is just another thing you need to get used to in a gunfight, but it...

Noah knew this could be a bad idea. Maybe a good idea. Maybe it won't change anything. Who knows? His shoulders dropped a little as his tension visibly dissipated. He pulled up one of the rolling chairs near him over and cleared a little space off on a desk, swiping the papers into an even...

Noah drew in a sharp breath, unsure of what to do next. He never thought he'd get this far, and he almost never saw a one-night-stand again. This is a first for him, in all his years of bingeing and womanising, this was an actual first. His mind wanders to his sparse memories of that night and...

Noah saw as Reese fought back. He heard Kuro on the comb. He saw on his minimap as Sal did his best to rally men. BattleNet comms were so jammed that half transmissions and pieces were heard. Mortars rained down and Noah heard as the land-barge circled around the square. Men in ADI gear and...

Noah's tackle fell through when Murray side-stepped out of the way. He tumbled to the floor as a chair went flying and he ducked hard to avoid being hit. He took advantage of the bedlam and his now low center of gravity to blitz clean into Murray's legs. The man tried to sidestep or deflect him...

Noah stepped forward. He unslung his rifle, thumbed the power-safety and the weapon gave a short whine as it powered up. He checked the ammo counter in his HUD-visor (a holodisplay like glasses); power pack full. He unholstered his blaster pistol, checked it's readings. He left his backup in his...
