Mildly confused at why Iris was crying and not him, he hugged her back, trying to ignore the seawater on his best suit.

"Unless you had something to do with it, doll," he explained, trying to calm her down, "ain't nothing to apologize for.  I mean, if I hadn't had the family I had, which was not a bad family at all, I wouldn't be who I am now.  I wouldn't have had a clue how to find Iplitan or push his buttons to agree with this heist of ours.  As far as tragic backstories go, I got off easy."
