NOAH
The only thing that kept Noah going out on these quests and leaving his pregnant wife at home was his ever-strong sense of duty and service to Halo, as well as his confidence in Cordelia's family to care for her and keep her safe. Not that she needed much care, as she would remind him, but Noah felt better when a cousin, or aunt, or her mother were at the house with her when she was so close to her due season.
Taking a bag from Hotaru, he listened as she described the rocks they were looking for. "I've seen some similar to that in the Climb." He noted, nodding confidently that he knew what he should be looking for. Setting off on his own path that forked off from either of his partners, Noah started looking. It wasn't too hard to find the rocks, though there were some other pieces of sediment that looked so close to the lava rock that Noah could only test them by weight.
After nearly an hour of searching and filling his bag, Noah lifted himself tall and wiped sweat from his brow. "How's this distance, Ru? Am I too far for you?" Noah called out playfully, a wink following that she could surely see with any eye of her shifts.

I wait and tell myself "life ain't chess,"
But no one comes in and yes, you're alone
But no one comes in and yes, you're alone
