"Would you..." He took in another breath as he stared at his Jedi friend. He reached over and took a long sip of his warm tea, as if unconcerned with its temperature, and cleared his throat. Several moments passed as he allowed what he had just experienced to sink in. It all made sense, what...
Anton smirked, a slight chuckle exiting his lips at Davik's question. "I think you know all too well what that job might entail." Davik was no stranger to getting things done, based on what Anton understood. In many ways, that qualified him for the job better than most who held it currently. But...
As Anton's senses through the force were opened, he could feel it pulse through him in a gradual, steady trickle. At first, it felt very much like he was flexing a muscle he had never used - taking a bit of effort on his part. Had it not been for Vollen to aid him, he would not be able to see...
"Perfectly understandable." Anton replied, a smirk lining his features. It wasn't the response he was hoping for, to be sure. He could sense the hesitancy in the man's voice, and to be honest he had been through a lot. The Corellian knew what he wanted, but he also knew he couldn't press too...
Anthony rose from his seat and approached the dais within his pod. ”The Senator of Corellia would request the ability to respond to Senator Sokolov and Senator Antilles.” He would wait until he was given leave to respond before he spoke again. Anthony was a different man now than he was when he...
For the first time, Numenius Pax had proposed something that Anton could get behind. At first, the Senator of Corellia thought of asking about how Pax intended to secure funding for this proposed initiative, but the answer was altogether obvious - it would be a branch of the armed forces...
'Kriff...' Anton mentally chided himself. Not only had he been inaccurate about his recollection of which world Senator Pax represented, but on top of that - his reason for empathizing with the man. Corulag had suffered its share of hardships during the war, but not to the extent that Anton...
As far as assignments go, Anton could have been sent on worse. Bestine IV was widely known as a tropical world, serving as the premier vacation destination of those wealthy enough to indulge. And he was indeed wealthy enough to indulge. Prior to his securing the position of Senator, he had made...
It was likely not a surprise how Anton would vote. Securing a steady stream of Kolto was key to the Republic, even during times of peace. Unequivicolly, he pressed the Yay button on his console, and leaned back as he awaited for others to do the same. If this passed, this would be the first time...
Anthony subtly nodded his head in agreement with Octadar's proposal. While some may have thought the offer stingy, it was better to start low to set a baseline for further negotiation. The Minister, on the other hand, was not as understanding. His face hardened as he responded: "If you are...
Anton grimaced slightly at Octadar mentioning the repayment of Foerost's stimulas payouts, at the very least so early in their discussion. Now it was undoubtedly on the table, removing a possible component in their negotiations. The Corellian also noticed the Minister smirk slightly, which...
Hope. Hope was the bedrock freedom was built upon, be it hope within the hearts of the oppressed, or hope within the hearts of those who actively opposed such oppression. It felt good to be a part of a mission meant to bolster such hope, and upon Anthony's home planet no less. The shuttle which...
Anton listened to Senator Todan's remarks, and thereafter pondered the situation briefly. He had mixed opinions on Todan, but with recent events being as they are, he needed a strong ally in the Senate - and Todan was a reputable member. He rose from his seat and said: "Corellia seconds your...
It had seemed their efforts to transition smoothly worked, at least somewhat. The minister gave them a faint smile, yet one could discern that it was half-hearted. Surely their efforts wouldn't prove to be THAT easy. "Indeed, Foerost once was a major centerpiece in the manufacturing of the...
It was clear that Anton was conflicted about all of this. He was hesitant, primarily because he was afraid. Afraid that what he suspected to be true was in fact true. Yet, after overcoming his hesitation, he grasped the Jedi's hand and closed his eyes. He breathed in deeply as he settled in...
By the look of things, it appeared that the two Senators had made a solid first impression. Although Octadar did not bow in unison with his counterpart as courtesy demanded, it seemed Minister Solari was either indifferent to the faux pas or was not going to allow it to hinder their discussions...
The Galaxy was a strange place indeed. Where one day, a man could be a villain of the magnitude and caliber to make the wheels of the criminal underworld turn, the next he could scratch a new life for himself in the Core Worlds of the Republic - on Chandrila no less. Anthony Price was on his way...
"I have come to check in on you. I would be remiss if I did not ensure if you are alright considering what has happened." He offered her a kind smile as he entered the room and accepted her hospitality. He took a seat as it was offered and continued: "I would also like to say that I've enjoyed...
Anton arched his brow as he glanced up at the Jedi. He was direct - something the Senator respected but he was a bit surprised about as well. He finished up his preparations soon enough and took the plate of snacks to the table, taking a seat alongside the Jedi in a chair perpendicular to his...
Anthony listened to the speech given by Octadar. It was short and to the point - the Corellian respected that. Add if he were being honest, it was a bold proposition for such a new Senator. When the opportunity arose for questions, Anton decided to bite: "How do you intend to acquire these...
