Here's a little coincidence for you. ;-) Seiko's college rival = Tristan's childhood crush. It's not a huge coincidence, since they grew up in the same general area, and Natalie has an imposing personality – so if she was in your school, you'd know her.

LanceDanger: Tristan is generally not a violent man, but Mike is avoiding pretty much everyone.

n_y_japlander: lol

Tantz: The competitive people I have in mind are actually family, which can be tougher to shed than friends.

trevoramueller: It has a few purposes, but one of them is this bit of Tristan's character development.

Peipei: At least Tristan is distracted for a moment. ;-)
