"Damn. Does suck to lose a home, never had a homework day but moving can cause you to leave behind things. The past is the past though, nothing we can do to fix it now."

"Yeah; just keep pushing forward; fight for the people you lost...and continue forward with your life." She stated sadly...almost as if she lost someone dear to her recently...
-
"I said we can't fix the past, that doesn't mean we don't remember it. Whether it's a loved one or anything else, they aren't the past. They stay with you on your journey. Our people always had a saying. "Do not fight for the fallen, but fight with them." The dead are dead, but that doesn't mean they are gone"

She looks to him, resting on his shoulder. "Maybe you're right. I mean...I've lost too many people that I knew closely...I'll make sure I'll fight for them." She says, before grabbing one of the drinks somehow left unfazed by the attack. "You want some? I think it's vodka." She asks him.
-
"Thanks for the offer, but I'll pass. I've got my own." [b][i]He said, taking another sip of his own drink.[/i][/b] "though how about we move on from a less depressing topic, shall we? This how you treat all new arrivals?" [b][i]He says jokingly.[/i][/b]

"Well, if there isn't a Krogan who wants to kill everybody alive within10 Meyers, no." Vel had told him, chuckling a little bit afterwards, sipping her drink. "Now that I think about, I never got your name." She says.
-
"Tal'el, though most shorten it to simply Tal." [b][i]He says with a smile.[/i][/b] "And yours?"
-
"Velinnea. Although most people just call me Vel." She stated.
-
"Well, it's a pleasure to meet you Vel. You truly show your heritage, being able to hold yourself in a fight."
-
"Same could be said of you." She tells him, finally holstering her pistols, and began to take a swig of vodka.
-
"Eh, that was just some basic elven knifesmanship. Nothing too impressive compared to some of the ones who dedicate their entire lives to it. And even they're nothing to the Order."
-
"Still...last time I checked, the only ones highly trained enough to use a knife the way you did that are the Mandalorians that were trained in our own armed forces, or Deathwatch." She says, shivering a little bit when mentioning this 'Deathwatch'.
-
"That stuff? That was sloppy. He wasn't much of a threat to be quite honest." [b][i]He said, not like boasting, but just a fact.[/i][/b] "Though if an Order of Hassar member had been here, well let's Just say that fight would've ended much faster."
-
"So...your people could've ended it faster? I know that my race could end it faster; maybe a specialized soldier, or trained merc could've ended this with a wrist rocket to the head or maybe barbecuing him with a flamethrower." She says. "Unfortunately, I don't have that specialty. Least not yet."
-
"Not my people. I'm not even close to as skilled as one of the Order is. If one was here, that man would've been filleted in a second. Though it sounds like your people are less subtle?" [b][i]He says jokingly[/i][/b]
-
"Less subtle? Our guns are loud enough for everyone to hear, and last time I checked, we beaten shit better than a Krogan." She says, almost as if it was somewhat triumphantly, before taking another swig. "I'm not one of those badasses, though." She told him.
-
"You, my friend, need to learn sarcasm. Though if what's rumoured about our races past is true, there is some nasty crap buried in our planet..."
-
"Amen to that." She says, taking a final swig fromm her bottle. "Both our races are completely warlike...and yet we aren't. Well, almost."!
-
"Well, that's cause we did that for a few thousand years, realized it was a -blam!-ing stupid idea, and started trying to fix it. And then we said -blam!- it and left."
-
"True. We just tried to rebuild after that...last time I checked, Ithink that was working. Republic was helping and all..." she had said.
-
"See, we just decided to leave and wander the multiverse. Our people had somewhat different responses to this situation."
-
Different solutions, same war. Maybe we could learn off each other; maybe both races work together...well, those who popped out here in the Milky Way." She had told him, relaxing next to the elf.
-
"Well, in terms of my kind, I believe my clan is the only one who's appeared in this system so far. It's possible some could be nearby though, maybe only a system or three over."
