Another Piece Deleted From My Heart... (Destiny)

It may not have been my favorite planet...but he was by far my favorite vendor. An alien after my own heart, so to speak. As soon as I met him I instantly found myself enamored by his succinct barbs and clever and careful use of 'terms and conditions'. I found a great kinship with him, similar in so many ways: we both prefer to negotiate our way out of a hairy situation instead of getting our hands dirty; we both have a great deal of knowledge, and our ego of such is even greater; we have a fascination with how things play out, watching from the sides; our curiosity in the obscure; we're shamelessly crafty and manipulative; we're always willing to supply what someone needs...for the right price...we're even both heavily obese and suffer from a deviated septum!

...well, I used to. Down to 245, and no snoring. ;-)

But I filled out my postcard for that purple stretch of rocks chained together, and I'll always treasure the smirk that permanently lit up my fave whenever I heard that rousing drum roll...or when I joined him in his gleeful cackling laughter.

To the king of the Smugglers...I'll miss you forever.
