Suddenly someone else had entered the bar, he was eating meat while carrying meat with both hands, a difficult feat for any normal human.
Do to his accelerated breathing Griff noticed Sammy had been running so he began to think, why would he run with food and come here of all places? Griff looked at the bartender and pointed a finger at Sammy with a “do you know him” look on his face, the bartender shrugged and continued doing his buisness. 
So, he must have stolen it, Griff continued on his train of thought, It kind of reminds me of my early thieving days, running was most of the job back then.... wait... (Sammy began walking to his counter) is he a thief? No, he doesn't quite fit the bill, maybe he's a pirate! Can he be the one to be the next king? He doesn't look that str.......!!!!!! Griff saw the straw hat on Sammy, who sat next to him and offered him some of his meat. 
Griff sat still looking in awe at the straw hat, he couldn't help but pat himself on the back, making a stupid grin while scratching the back of his head, His guess could actually be right, if that was the fabled straw hat, then he remembered he was offered some meat, “Yeah, I would like some” 
Griff began to panic a bit, he could not blow this meeting, he began to feel the same panic he got when he first started stealing, one wrong move and it's over, he took a deep breath and continued “Well, I'm Griff,” Griff looked at the bartender and ordered two, no six more drinks, if Sammy could eat those 3 big pieces of meat, then surely he could drink a lot as well, then he turned to him again “It's a thank you for the meat, can I ask you something stranger, who gave you that straw hat and why are you here in Lougue town?”
