Artan got a wistful smile. "I showed up here and found Petit the first night. I don't know if I told either of you how it went down, but see, she and me knew each other about a decade ago. We were just kids then, but we both lived on Tortuga with the pirates and went through the Guild trials together. I had a huge raging crush on her the entire time, but she was sort of seeing this guy that was my friend, you know, so I didn't step on any toes or anything. I mean sure, I unabashedly checked her out, but hell, she's hot, what could I do? It fell apart after a while and I moved away, hadn't seen her for a long time, then we both got sucked up here and it was like no time had passed between us. I'm really glad I found her."
Cassidy listened and smiled slightly. Henn's folks were alright people, for people he was completely intimidated by. "That's really sweet, Mr. S. I mean, hell. You two are going to be making the girl of my dreams one day, so I might be a bit biased due to that, but it's nice that you and she finally hit it off."
