Porthos was just minding his own business as he walked down the halls of the ship and then someone bumped into him. Of course the first thing he did was start apologizing...normally he would have been the first to jump into fight, but for some reason he just wasn't in the mood for one at the moment. "I'm sorry, sir" he said once he realized that the person that had bumped into him was a man. This was all a little hard to take in, and that was why he hadn't been paying attention to where he was going.
"I was just getting my barrings" he admitted honestly. "I just got here...trying to find my way around" he explained. He knew that he wasn't completely to blame, but there was no need for a fight now...it would just lead to more trouble.
