1. She misses the Wood more than she lets on, but she also means it when she says that she has no intention of ever going back. 2. Balthier is the first Hume she ever trusted or even particularly liked. 3. Before meeting Balthier, she was a solo bounty hunter. She's happy to stay in partnership with him for as long as he's willing and able, and she appreciated the companionship of the others when they traveled together, but she fully expects the partnership to dissolve at some point, and when that happens she'll be content to go solo again.
Balthier:
1. After his initial advances were rebuffed, he took Fran's lack of interest in stride, and he's now perfectly happy just to be partners. But that doesn't mean that he doesn't sneak an appreciative look from time to time. 2. He hated being a Judge, and being forced into that role by his father was a significant factor in his decision to leave Archades. 3. Every time he comes anywhere near Rabinastre, he has to fight the urge to drop in, scoop up Ashe, and fly off into the sunset. The main thing that stops him is the fear that her duty comes first, and that she would tell him no if he asked.
