Brian and Keith

Brian comes in, his normal small self. Brian is much like you and James if a little less nerdy. Keith is more like Jeff, a foot taller than Brian with an impressive build and a kind of easy friendly dominance. The two make a cute couple. Brian's quiet demeanor makes Keith taking the lead fit naturally. You're glad Brian found someone that obviously fills his gaps. You even felt a strange hard to place pang of jealousy that you justified as wanting your partner to fill your gaps as well, although you're having trouble conjuring up a clear picture of what that partner would look like.

Keith: "Hi guys, it's so nice to finally meet Brian's friends, he talks about you all so much but I've always been busy on your scheduled nights."

You all take turns greeting Keith and introducing yourselves before everyone got another drink and sat down for the game. Brian chose the squirrel squad, a faction that was very mobile but not strong unless in large numbers. Keith chose the Gorillas, an interesting faction that like the bears had few very strong characters but with a twist that the gorilla alpha managed a haram of mates that would be the main work horses.

You all spend some time trash talking while setting up the starting position of the factions.
