Cannon seems to look slightly relieved.
"Glad to hear it. That was a rough mission, she deserves some rest."
His drink arrives and he takes a long swig.

"Fûck yeah it was a tough mission. Just glad I was able to get everyone out."
-
"Same here. So, you pay rhe legion back for the arm?"
-
"Killed fifty of them since we met, so yeah. I'd say so."
-
"Glad to hear it. I never asked this before, but where exactly are you from? I know you're from the NCR, but what planet is that planet and such."
-
"Planet? Earth. Born in Shady Sands, California, USA. How about you?"
-
"Technically I left the containment cell on Kamino, so I guess I was born there. Don't consider it my home by any means. I'm from Mandalore." He takes another sip. "Been looking for a new home for the clan though, part of the reason I came here."
-
"Hm... Alright." [b]I take a long drink from my whiskey.[/b]
-
"Out of curiosity, would this... Earth make a decent home for a few thousand Mandos?" Cannon asks, looking slightly hopeful.
-
"Depends. You willing to help out NCR?"
-
"Well, I'm sure the chief would be willing to make a treaty of sorts. You seem like the good guys, even if you can't seem to beat the sports-wear legion."
-
"The Legion back in the USA was beaten. This is the only safe-haven for them left."
-
"Huh, dosent seem to safe any more. One of them tried to ambush me earlier today on the road. It was almost comical to see them threaten with a baseball bat." He laughs.
-
"Heh. One of the recruits, eh? Yeah, I've killed tons of them."
-
"I almost felt bad about it. He broke the bat over my helmet. You should have seen the look on his face when he realised it didn't hurt me."
-
"Heh. After what they did to my wife and kid? No mercy. No regret."
-
"What happened?" Cannon's smile fades, hos tone now serious.
-
"I was on patrol, they burnt my house down, killed my wife, took my daughter as a slave, she was killed a year later by them."
-
"Oh. Sorry to hear that. Now I wish I'd killed the shabuir slowly. A headshot is too fast for someone who kills children."
-
"She was only seven... Bastards deserve every bullet I put in them. Wanna come with me later to torture the hell out of their leader?"
-
"Sounds like a plan. My interrogation skills are a bit rusty, so I could use the practice. Should I being the dulling knife or rusted needle?" Cannon downs his drink.
-
"Oh, I've got lots other things to do that. How 'bout we drink to forget for now, though?"
-
Cannon nods, ordering another pint. "Agreed. So, What's Earth like?"
-
"A wasteland."
-
"Sounds like Mandalore."
-
"Does Mandalore have slavers and chameleons with giant horns and claws that want to tear your dick off?"
