Noa Garland. Why did your character join the RAC? because it seemed like a cool idea at the time. it took probably two conversations with cody and the mars racing crew to consider joining the agency, because noa's reasons behind it were easy and childish and not based whatsoever on the fact that she wanted to actually catch bad guys. she's an adventurer who craves action and excitement — where else to get it? it was also in part due to her feeling incredibly helpless during her mom's illness struggle, though she wouldn't actively realize that. What might they be doing now if they hadn't joined? potentially still racing, or traveling. if she'd never gotten into the agency, i don't think she might've had an avenue to sit down and eventually get her shit together. without the agency, she'd be a flighty soul who wouldn't stay in one place or thing for long. When they picture their future, what do they see? she has these romantic ideals of what things will be like -- racing, being a bounty hunter -- and when she gets bored of that thing, she wants to move on. she won't know that her bounty hunting days are over until they hit her, acutely and painfully, but she doesn't see herself doing the next thing, either. living in the moment is more noa's way of living, though she has wondered, from time to time, what happens after the RAC. who knows? she doesn't, not until she gets there.
