"Oh, yeah? Better fix that!" Francis enthusiastically said as he put his hand out. "I'm Francis, a transfer from Brazil. You're a DOVE, right? I don't do too much business with the DOVEs, so that explains why we haven't met yet, yeah?" 

Francis talked fast, and with a thick accent, which made it surprisingly difficult for the girl to keep up. As soon as she felt her ears lagging behind, she focused on him a little more - and his words and thoughts were coming to her easier. He seemed to slightly remember her and she didn't detect any sense of animosity or annoyance, so he clearly wasn't too bent out of shape about what happened earlier today. Still, it didn't keep Andrea from appearing just a little taken back by whole slew of words dumping from Francis' mouth. She followed it with an amused smile, and reached for the gentleman's hand.

"My name is Andrea." She replied. The girl had her own accent as well - Polish, if one were familiar with it, but was otherwise difficult to pin down to anything more precise than northern European.

"And no," Andrea explained, "[i]not exactly.[/i] I'm just an intern for DOVE. I actually wrote an outline for today's schedule, as per my supervisor's request; including the speech, but..." Andrea huffed a little. "I guess they weren't exactly... [i]interested[/i] in it?"

She rubbed her shoulder slightly and made an awkward shrug. Looking down, she found herself clicking her pretty red nails together, nearly picking at them. She had a purpose in talking to him other than chit chat, and she ought to get it out of the way. She bit her lip a little bit. She continued, "I wanted to formally apologize for startling you earlier today and making you drop your paperwork. I shouldn't have been in such a rush and I should have been more considerate."
