Kylo Ren followed Verena out, and as she spoke to the Stormtrooper, he just gave the remaining one a look. He didn’t need to speak, even without the mask. The Stormtrooper nodded, and set off after Verena. Apparently, they were in the same area. “These will be your quarters,” the Stormtrooper...

Pryde snorted at the demand about Neria Tarkin. He understood well why she was wanted dead, even if he didn’t know Verena’s personal vendetta. He knew that Neria had joined the fight, and led the attack on Starkiller Base. “I assure you, plans are in the work to deal with Imperatix Tarkin,”...

Caspian stiffened at the mention of the group. ‘How would—why would you get involved with them? For how long?’ These were not questions he could ask Anika Cresswell as she introduced herself. Not yet, anyways, although he desperately wanted to know how her family could have ever been involved...

‘Are you always encouraging?’ Ada thought the answer was ‘yes’, given Nick’s reputation as helpful. Always was probably a stretch, but she was very willing to sell herself short. Very willing to doubt. Honestly, and dishonestly. Even so, it drew a rueful smile to her lips as he commented on...

Ada told the story well enough to illicit a reaction from the detective. For a man as old as he was—and a man made of metal – he was never known to be cold. It certainly made her wonder how much was programming, and how much was…well, the ‘ghost in the machine’, so to speak. The something more...

Bump!

‘It’s a headache.’ Caspian honestly knew it was lucky to own a hotel chain, and he was lucky at how well it was doing. He was set to expand rapidly. There was a market no one else had latched onto, and a need he was able to fill, but he kept that to himself for now. He didn’t really need hunters...

Bump

Despite being inhuman, Nick Valentine had human-enough responses. Of course, a synth was meant to – though Nick didn’t look human enough to pass. Ada had often wondered in her youth about it all, but right then, she could only spare it a passing thought, as something akin to relief moved through...

Ada found an easy smile as Nick commented on her ringing self endorsement. Easy, but it contained just that hint of morose humor. There wasn’t much she could say for herself after the mess her life had become; she couldn’t defend herself against the light jab. “Mystery,” she clarified. As Nick...

“Indeed,” Pryde nodded his agreement with Verena’s last statement, “and it is the Order’s hope to use those connections, and make them our own. Part Zeva, without her realizing it, from the other criminal organizations and make them loyal to us, not Zeva.” A bit of a task, but not impossible, as...

Bump!

Caspian didn’t hide his relief when the hunter agreed to slip her stake away into her bag. It’d be more difficult for her to get it, than for him to bite her. Or for him to stab her. Or, really, do anything. She was taking a significant risk, and he respected that, fully intending not to screw...

Bump!

The conference room was empty except for the three of them, “Has the Supreme Leader left explaining the mission to me?” Pryde asked, his polite way of wondering if they knew what the hell was going on. Based on Kylo Ren, Pryde had his doubts, and the Herald was too quiet for him to be certain...
