AERON TRIED NOT TO FIDGET. IT WASN'T HIS FAULT, he was so used to doing something with his hands. Myricks watched enough television to know who she was. Padme Amidala, the new upcoming senator everyone in the political world was speaking about. He only kept up on it because he needed to know who was who just in case he got the hit. The last politician that was taken out was a corrupt bastard that no one dared to whisper his name. Aeron didn't blame her for not disclosing who she was online. It was even more brutal in the comments. Many had speculated that he was not good-looking or one of those scrawny nerds who was covered in pimples. It figured they would try to egg him on to appear on the screen, but he never caved because his job would be comprised otherwise.

He smiled and stifled a cough. "Your place sounds better. Mine is not actually visitor-friendly." If she saw how he lived on the poor end, she would probably run for the hills. It wasn't like he couldn't afford anything better, it was just he was comfortable and the landlord asked no questions. The guy didn't require proof of income, which was largely why he stayed. It wasn't like he could draw up some false paperwork, he just didn't want the headache. "Yeah, I'll have to grab a Mountain Dew too. Can't stop drinkin' those."

↳ Anakin Skywalker

But you remember...You remember all of it. You remember the dragon that you brought Vader forth from your heart to slay. You remember the cold venom in Vader's blood. You remember the furnace of Vader's fury, and the black hatred of seizing her throat to silence her lying mouth—

"IT'S WHY MOST OF THOSE HAVE BEEN PHASED OUT." He double-checked the coordinates again just to keep busy. "It's impractical since most ships come with hyperdrives. Hyperdrives are very necessary for travel otherwise we would never get around the galaxy since it's so large. It would take years or decades to travel just to Naboo to Coruscant and it is mandated by most of the Galactic Republic." Flight he could speak about for ages. It was clear Padme did not know the modern workings of a ship. He wouldn't think a senator would. Why would she need too? Being a Jedi, this knowledge was fairly basic. Her hand on his broke his focus on the navigation and made him look up at her. Why did she always know when he was taking things so seriously? "I'm not worried." He was though. Would her family like him or chase him out? Would they keep their secret or go running to the council at a whim? "I don't know. Let's just feel them out first." It was rare for Anakin not to know the answer, but this was uncharted territory.

I will be here after the birthday party dinner I have to attend too. Tomorrow I'm babysitting and reading two sections so I will try to get the threads tonight queued away.

Skywalker, by contrast, looked every bit the HoloNet hero he was supposed to be. He seemed to tower over his companions, as though he had somehow gotten even taller in the months since Mace had seen him last. His hair was tousled, his color was high, and his walk still had the grounded grace of a natural fighter, but there was something new in his physicality: in the way he moved his head, perhaps, [...] or something less definable. Some new ease, new confidence. An aura of inner power. Presence.

ANAKIN WANTED IT OVER TO A DEGREE. He felt more useful on the battlefield but knew that the Jedi were keepers of the peace. It had to be above all else and fighting last. The war was taking a toll on him massively. There were few times he was happy now. It was why he came to Padme to ask what he could do to help. Brows furrowing, he gave it up for now and placed the data pad finally down. The day was coming to a pass anyway and he would need to make his way back to the temple to rest.

"I don't know how you do it." He said glancing over to her as he smiled finally. She was still so beautiful. Ethereal in a sense. It was why he thought she was an angel when they first met. It was so long ago. He hardly knew what overcame himself. Anakin still didn't. When he was close to her, he didn't want to be away. It was an internal fight in him when he decided to concentrate on being a Jedi. "Obi-Wan doesn't know I'm here actually. He hates politics and would try to get me to back out. I haven't told the council yet either. I don't want it to be on record until we come up with an actual plan."

SILENT WAS NOT EXACTLY AERON'S WAY. Sure, he could shut it if he really wanted too. He had grown cocky in his ways since he was confident in them. The fact was he killed a major crime lord and gotten away with him. Even his goons refused to pursue him for fear of them getting whacked by the mercenary. People were scared of him and rightfully. Which was why he wasn't going down quietly or how he saw it. He'd be damned to hell. 'I'm donezo. The guy with my face is going to chop my head off and the two fucks without brains, let's just hope their mothers can coddle them to sleep after.'

Being no thug and just a basic idiot at times, because let's face it - he knew he fucked up in some way to draw attention to himself. Normally he was calculated and careful. One time. One frickin' time my mask breaks. I knew I should have gotten that last video game. Fuck, if I live - I'll buy it. I promise Ares I will.' The one time his mask busted and this was the result? Nope. He'd wiggle and scream if he had any common sense or maybe if he was really smart, he'd just shut the hell up before his luck ran out.

He was literally praying to every god he could think of in English, Latin, and Welsh. Why Welsh? Because one of his best friends in high school was a pagan and his beliefs seemed to fit with his morals. So he found himself with a nose in books researching. Which was why one of his tattoos was a tree branch going from his right hand to his forearm. It was in honor of the Triple Goddess.

"You can say that again," Aeron said dryly before looking over his shoulders at the two goons. His eyes trailed back to the other. "Azure?" He was a bit shocked because that was his merc name when he was doing hits. It wasn't until he said Vader did his blood ran cold. He knew instantly he fucked up way worse than he could ever imagine. "That's touchin' and all. Nice to have fam, but what does it have to do with me?"

Leveling an eye with him, this could go one of two ways: he could refuse and piss the man off completely or spill the beans. It wasn't that he didn't know anything, because he knew enough honestly. He just played dumb. "Name's Aeron Myricks." Pausing for a moment, he breathed out. "But you already knew that. . . My brother, my twin was beaten to death by my father, or what he told me to keep my ass in line because heaven fuckin' forbid if you should ever speak up against Carl Myricks. He's dead, the bastard. Serves him right. As far as I know, my mother is a cheater and my father left with me to get back at her. Gods knows how many times he told me when he was drunk."

"WELL, YOU'RE NOT WASHING BLOOD off your hands. So I take it alright?" He kept puffing on his cigarette and dared to glance over his shoulder. He raised a brow. Aeron was one who could sense magic or something mystical when it approached. "Which one are you?" He meant god, demon or the like. "No. I just needed air and how the hell did you know? You've been snooping?"
