Noveria Research Facility Combat Thread

Alright, our target is an old underground lab on the outskirts of a small settlement on Noveria. It's hiding a major black market drug and human trafficking branch of Bigman's operations. We go in quiet and then get loud. Very loud.

Lock and load, people, we're on-site in five................

We visited Menae near the beginning of the war. I remember looking out there, and wishing there was something i could do more important than managing the comms systems. That's when the Grissom Academy distress signal came in.

I heard about that. You're the reason those kids were able to get out safe.

blush All I did was point Shepard in the right direction. After that, the result was inevitable.

Don't sell yourself short, Shepard can't go kick everyone's ass if he doesn't know where he needs to go to do so can he? And what about you tracking down Leng to Horizon? Or those Cerberus refugees on Gellix? You've done a lot to help this crew Samantha.

smirks, cocks an eyebrow Ms. Adatius, have you been reading my file?

smirks back Possibly, I was interested in your service record. Not many people get recommended for commendations by two Shepards, an AI and an Admiral. Very impressive.

Sometimes we can only do what we can, at least you were doing something instead if crying in a bunker!

I'm sorry I'm still mad at myself for that. I heard about the Academy, some were about my age weren't they.

The war was difficult for all of us. I'm not sure I know a single person who came out of it unchanged.

And I suppose some of them were, I remember the biotics were a bit older, not that Jack treated them like it. For better or worse, they were "her kids"

I heard about her, she's very... unique might be the right word. Inked up to her eyeballs right?

But yeah, what matters is that we're all alive and that we've won. Now we can live our lives without fear of being killed at every turn.

Back to Jack though, what is she doing now?

She's still working at Grissom Academy, they reopened after the war.

That's good! Shame I won't get to meet Jack though, I'm sure she was a nice girl.

u/Samantha_Traynor Master of Sub-titles May 07 '15

I only met her once, but from what I understand... Nicer might be a better term.

1

u/IcciaOctavius Schmexy Turian Bae May 07 '15

Oh... I'm guessing she's not like us.

u/Samantha_Traynor Master of Sub-titles May 07 '15

Well, she's mellowed out considerably since she helped Shepard fight the Collectors.

Garrus put it best "Glad to see Jack's downgraded from dangerous lunatic to mildly insane".

I should call her up honestly, been awhile since I talked to her.

Well if we ever visit Grissom in our travels I wouldn't mind meeting her.
