played through smuggler story on my Eleena--got to Balmorra and met with the twi'lek called Numen Brock. Though upon looking at him, my brain instantly go 'this dude is Zenith's identical twin!' because they looked alike each other. 😂

SWtOR OC Challenge Day 8

8. Romances. A companion? An NPC? One of your OCs? Someone else’s? Nobody? Explain!

Far as her canon’s concerned, got another Theron-mancer here. :D And the banter romancing him with a smuggler is just AMAZING. To be honest, at first she thought he was just going to be another Numen Brock situation; snarky guy she flirts up, maybe makes out with a time or two, has a one-night stand, then out of her life due to differing paths/responsibilities.

Spoiler alert, that’s not what happened. She was falling(well, sliding on her butt down a hill, grabbing at passing rocks and bits of vegetation to slow herself down bc “wait a minute, I don’t fall for people, this wasn’t the plan ABORT”) for him by the end of SoR, but figured her part in stopping Vitiate was done, she’s probably not gonna see him again, and if she does it’ll be a super long way down the road, so clearly no point in hoping for any more to Them. And then Ziost happens, and even if she hides it well and it’s literally The Worst Circumstances Imaginable, she’s really happy to see him again.

And then, of course, KotFE. She’s not much better at relationships than he is, so there’s some fumbles in the beginning, but since neither one of them can deny their feelings(or wants to), they do make things official when he shows up in ch 9 She’s a little more jaded and struggles to keep her faith in him during Fractured Alliances. But she loves him, and the universe has taken enough from her, it’s not allowed to take him too, so she just refuses to believe he actually betrayed her. Just straight up denial. No proof, plenty of doubt, but she’s stubborn as all hell when she wants to be, and she WANTS TO BE. 

There’s definitely a long arc rebuilding trust with her vs Jaaide under the same circumstances, but they do get back to where they were before Umbara.
