ADAM
It seemed he had actually made some progress with Deimos, because the man returned his jibe with another; his delivery was still rather growly, but Adam could have sworn it was a joke. In response he grinned and flicked the lapels of his shirt, pushed a hand through his hair.
He appreciated the respect that Deimos showed for his pistol. Adam's guns were precious to him because of the cost that went into acquiring them, but more than that too: they had always been a bit of insurance, especially here where they were an unknown element in a lot of combat. He was not the strongest nor the most muscular man, but he had at his hips two devices that guaranteed he could defend himself if needed.
Really, they were more a defensive visual than anything else - he rarely fired and when he did, he aimed not to kill. That didn't mean it wasn't fun though; with a nod he took the gun back from Deimos and flicked the safety off, scrambled to get on his feet then looked over the Oasis. "Alright, see that tree there?" He squinted as he aimed, holding his gun steady, then the shot rang out without any warning - and the bark of the tree across the Oasis splintered.
"Yes!!" Adam threw his fist up into the air. "Still got it."

A wasted youth is better by far
Then a wise and productive old age
