'Nom' moments of the Gap (INEVITABLE SPOILERS)
You know what a 'Nom' moment is. It's a moment like the one in the Second Chronicles that prompts you (or me, at least, and I know I'm not alone) to put the book down for a moment and whisper words to the effect of "No. <insert expletive>. Way."
So what Nom moments do you remember from the Gap?
I've only read the series once, and that was a couple of years ago now, but I remember one quite distinctly: 'Give your command codes to Nick Succorso.'

Definitely. I have only read the series once - I remember more of a constant building of tension and pressure from events - a lot of "uh <expletive> - ok, what's next".When you find out Morn is pregnant.
When Milos Taverner is injected with mutagens.
Nick is given Angus' command codes.
But Nom moments? Like others, the biggest - "Give your commands to Nick Succorso"
yeah totally.
that had to be the biggest nom moment.
we should get tshirts
give your command codes to nick tshirts

you're more advanced than a cockroach,

to one of them?
~ alan bates, the mothman prophecies
i've had this with actors before, on the set,
where they get upset about the [size of my]
trailer, and i'm always like...take my trailer,
cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.
~ george clooney, inside the actor's studio
a straight edge for legends at
the fold - searching for our
lost cities of gold. burnt tar,
gravel pits. sixteen gears switch.

I think we should just print up a shirt that reads, "NOM"

I still want a "Conformity of purpose.." T-shirt, don't think I could get away with wearing a Nick shirt.
Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?

What would you want it to say?
Other than "Conformity of Purpose," of course
