(// story as it was played by me and Rodnas, part 1 // )

Trueno chose his path carefully, he knew the ins and outs of the region from numerous advances to the lanes. He evaded Port Talbot as well as the perimeter of the comet. Rushing in while the trade lanes were inactive he quickly docked his Titan onboard of Freeport 1, afterall this was not his first visit. Before he left his cockpit, he took one last breath... He was ready, his ham was ready, he remembered all lessons from old One-legged Pepe, what could possibly go wrong? With a hiss, the cockpit opened and Trueno ordered the deck personnel to keep his Titan ready for leaving. Just in case...

He had to orient himself a bit as he didn't know where exactly the restaurant Frozen Sun is located as he never frequented it. But after some minutes looking around he stood before the entrance.
"Now it is time to show some true Corsair spirit," he mumbled to himself. Trueno entered the locale signaling a waiter to assist him.
"Hombre, table two is reserved for me and mi compañera, show me the way si?" The last meters were tough, suddenly his uniform had feeling like itching and being sweaty everywhere...damn, he was nervous afterall.

From the tables in the restaurant guests could propably see a mid sized man in a dark rust red uniform with high boots following the waiter through the table rows. He looked about 30 something years old, yet at least his face didn't seem very "fresh" dependign on interpretation this man could be anxious, tired or both. More prominent than the golden crest he wears around his neck, Trueno carried a somewhat biggish ham, complete with bone with him.

The waiter showed him the empty table biding him to take a seat. Trueno politely took the offer, ordered a glass of coffeinated asteroid soda and started scanning the area.
"Hmmmm, no Hessian symbols here, Concordia chose well...or was there something?" Trueno thought and looked for people with Hessian, Outcast or Molly symbols first, then looked for people who seemed to watch him.

But restaurant seemed to be quite empty in this hour. Only four tables were with guests. Two freeport technicians with a beer, two women around fourty years old talking to each other and laugh, a pilot in uniform of IMG and a woman around 25-28 years old. Nobody seemed suspicious in any way. As Trueno noticed, nobody gave him attention after he went in except the single young woman at table in the corner. When Trueno sat to the table, Laura´s heartbeat went wild.
"Okay, so thats him. Well, not bad for first look," she thought.

Trueno noticed how empty the place actually was, tunnel vision seemed to have struck again...he grumpily thought he is too much in his head and not present enough. Now...who is that looking at me? Trueno tried to take an unsuspicious look. Damn, he was bad at doing secret stuff, obviously used to more direct approaches.

Laura noticed that Corsair is looking for something. Well, probably her. She was frozen for few moments when their looks met. But almost two glasses of wine made their job and gave her courage. She stood up and walked to the table.

Trueno noticed that girl at table in the corner is still looking at him but when their looks met, she turned her head to other direction. Few moments later she stood up and went towards his table. When she was approaching, he had few seconds to take a look on her.

She had apparently Kusari origin. Her face has a neutral expression when she start looking directly to Trueno. She was wearing a tight black t-shirt, jeans and quite ordinary shoes. But after few seconds, Laura stopped in front of the table.
"Señor Corazón?" she asked with quite good pronunciation, despite it was obvious that her native language is not the Corsarian one.

Looking a bit sheepishly Trueno took half a second to realize what is happening.

But as soon as "Lily" stood in front of the table, he basically shot out of his chair and tried to gallantly extend his hand over to her.
"Señorita Sweet, I take it then, sí?" he started to bow slightly no matter if she takes his hand or not.
"It is an honor!" He basically gave "Lily" not much time.
"Senorita, take a seat, si?" What Laura might notice was that he sure sounded like commanding is not an issue to him, though he was in no way rude. But people good at "noticing" stuff might sense that the voice is not as secure at the end as at the begining.

Laura blushed a little and turned her look to the floor for a second.
"Gracias, señor," she answered and sat down while thinking that maybe she chose too ordinary clothes when she realized that "señor Corazon" is wearing an uniform. A silent second ensured, Trueno took a breath, the gestures at the whole ham on the table.
"Señorita, it is a pleasure to meet you, please take this as a gift of my appreciation. It comes from my own reserves, be my guest," While still standing, he awaited response.

Laura apparently started to be confused if she should stay sit or stand up again.
"Oh...eh...gracias señor. You brought a jamón as a gift. I´m...pleased, I know that this mean a lot to get this from you. I am honored that I can be your guest," she started to speak, apparently embarrassed but trying to keep well-mannered tone.
"Had you good way here?" she added and second later realized how quite weird this question is at this situation from her.

As Laura started to speak more, Trueno noticed that non-Corsarian words had a Bretonian accent. He took another half of second to realize that the gift seems to be well recieved, and he gave a tiny small smile.
"Muy bien, but seems I forgot my manners after all," he said and took another small bow what might look a tiny bit stiff doing all that etiquette stuff.
"While i thank señora Concordia for guarding my privacy when getting this table, I am more comfortable with my true name. Señorita, my name is Trueno, Son of Jamón Coccinero!" It was weird way to introduce oneself, even for a Corsair.

He then took his seat again, and looked up to "Lily".
"But to answer your question - Omegas were quiet, and the trip was bueno, gracias. I hope you had no problemas with lowlife while coming here?" he happily took up the first "topic".

Laura looked at him and noticed big medallion that Trueno has on a chain around his neck. Then she also noticed his uniform sure looks a bit used and has quite some tiny punctures in the "heart" area and such.

Other than that Trueno looked calm on the outside, but what she noticed though was that his eyes were 100% focused on "Lily". She had his attention, but felt it as a "piercing" little. Laura also noticed that Trueno sure has some eyerings - evidence that he not slept for weeks or so it seemed.

Laura scratched her hand nervously.
"Nice to meet you, señor. I´m...Laura," she answered. "And my way here was more quiet than I even expected, I didn´t encountered any pirates what was quite surprise. Maybe they were on holiday," Laura smiled a little, trying to make a joke.

On a ragebreak. Or ragequit. Time will tell.
