Samson gave his brother a beacon - on the browncoat side (or whatever the equivalent is to an emergency gps locator in this verse). Thinking it was an emergency, he scrambled to it, even risking passing the blockade on Hera. What he finds is your character and his dead brother (died in the final battle).<br/><br/>With no other survivors or no reason to risk being on the planet, he takes you and his brother's corpse. At this point, he takes his brother back home (you tag a long for the moment) and attends his funeral. Samson leaves home, with you in tow and he leaves you at some random port. A year or so later, they cross paths and they build up a friendship/business relationship up until you stick around and become his first mate.<br/><br/>Side note- It would be hilarious that only Santaigo knows the story on how Samson had his ship stolen by his sexy little redhead. Which led to him acquiring the firefly he named the "man's ruin". Something we can hint at about IC and always annoys Samson.<br/><br/>If this sounds good to you, I can work up more details on HOW they got the firefly, as Santiago would have been there for the ambush the original owner of the firefly sent Samson (and Santiago) into.
