[ relatable isn't easy to come by in a place like this. the time travel concept was tricky enough to wrap his head around, but different dimensions and half-humans are ones he still struggles with. his coping method has been to take everything anyone says with a grain of salt, or to treat it like an abstraction or a tall tale. sailors love to deal in tall tales. the real challenge is when the physical evidence is right in front of his eyes. so it's a relief when he meets someone who's merely human, even if they do come from a time that's centuries past his own.

[ he places an order for a martini and a rum and coke. even though standing at the bar would be the perfect excuse for more casual touching, cassidy takes them instead to the empty table he eyed before once their drinks are in hand. and once they each have their own, cassidy raises his glass in a toast. ]
