Cassie nearly facepalmed at Jim's enthusiasm, and was about to laugh at the situation when she looked up at the face of the man kind enough to help them. Alarms went off in her head, but all she could do was look at the ground and hide behind Jim. She didn't want him seeing her face.
The man started talking pointing this way and that. "....and you should find it no problem. Though I don't suggest taking anymore detours....." he peered at Cassie. "My, she's quite the shy one isn't she, " he let out a low chuckle.

"Thanks for all you're help, we really appreciate it." Jim had briefly wondered what was the matter with Cassie, since he hadn't seen her this shy basically the entire trip. He looked worried for a brief moment, but seeing as this was a total stranger talking to them, he decided that he didn't need to know that something was up, so he composed himself and put a smile back on his face. He didn't really catch this person knowing about their detours, even when he hadn't told him. "Yeah, she can sometimes get like that," he replied, comfortingly rubbing her arm slightly, making it seem as if this was normal for her to act like that.

"My pleasure," the man smiled. I'm Sebastienne by the way," he left his hand out for a handshake."Oh, hm I can see why you would find it.....endearing," he smiled again. Cassie didn't say a word or lift her eyes, only tried to meld closer to Jim, more into the background so she wouldn't be seen.

Jim could tell that something seemed to be wrong with or upsetting Cassie so he decided that he should probably cut this chitter chatter short and get her back home. When the man introduced himself he finally looked closely at him and something seemed to be familiar about him. He couldn't figure out what it was though, since his worry about what was wrong with Cassie was clouding his mind. "Nice to meet you, I'm Jim," he said, shaking the man's hand quickly before letting go. "Well, we should probably be going now, it's getting kinda late, but thanks again for all your help."

Cassie was glad for Jim's sudden wish to leave, and grabbing his hand started walking off, marching right past Sebastienne with her eyes toward the ground. "Really, it was my pleasure," Sebastienne called to their backs, smiling to himself. It most definitely was.
