He shook his head. "Very true that doesn't change the facts." He says simply. Frowning a bit as she continued. "You don't want to be close to me cheri." He says softly. "I'm missing pieces that I have no idea where they can be found." he says quite bluntly. He frowned more as she continued. "Actually it doesn't. It actually makes me feel worse." He said. He felt Jasper's entrance and chuckled a bit. "Hello Jasper. Its been a long time old friend." He says with a smile. He heard her swallow. "How rude of me. Jasper this is my bride to be Suzy. Suzy this man is an old friend of mine. His name is Jasper." He turned his blind gaze to Jasper. "Jasper do make yourself presentable just in case she can see you." He says in a coaxing way. The arrow vanished and an eyepatch appeared over his eye. He turned back to her. "I am not touchy feely. I guess I will try to allow some touching but don't expect me to be open to it more than a bit when we have just met." He says. Clearly trying to compromise. Jasper spoke up. "Hey old friend. Still as distant as ever I see. Seriously pal its been almost a century. Shouldn't you let the incident with Jana go?" He blinked as his words got a violent hiss from Marxello. "Sorry man...didn't realize she didn't know and it was a sore topic still." He bowed to Suzy. "Nice to meet you Lady Suzy. Don't mind old grumpy pants over there. He'll warm up to you soon enough."
