Austin would turn to see the whole scene go down...... Wow. He had no idea they were like that.... Or at least he had no idea the lady was like that. One hell of an accent too. Ah well. It will all work out in the end. They’re all in the same unit after all. So they had to work together and get over their differences to bring peace and prosperity to their homes and families. If they worked together, there would be nothing, absolutely nothing that they can’t d- WHACK! 

Austin froze in place for a moment....... He then immediately put down his food on the closest table and he sat down on seat and held his foot and silently shook and cursed up profanities quietly, but repeatedly..... Apparently he had whacked his toe against the metal of one of the tables and crushed his pinky toe in his damn steel toed boot. No matter how resilient one might be, the unexpected will always hurt. How he did this not even he knows, but all he knew was that it hurt like fucking hell in a hand-basket.

After a few moments of agonizing pain, it soon faded and he turned in his seat to face the table and began eating his food. Trying to play it off and not embarrass himself in front of absolutely everyone and his superiors in fear of getting kicked off the team for non-professionalism. Because the last thing he could afford to do was get sent home without a way to actually get home. Though..... Being home wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world. He missed his family and being able to help them around the house..... Sure a they didn’t live in great large buildings and had commodities out the ass, but it was a nice little home and they worked for what they had, so, he was happy with it. Any meat found in his meal, he would take out and set aside for later for his little buddy hiding in bed.

Speaking of buddies, anyone who hasn’t taken a seat to eat their food, Austin would wave them over to come and sit with him to eat. He hoped he could get to know the team a little bit before the big wigs arrived and ruined all the fun. Right now they could freely speak, at least, that’s what he figured due to the relaxed nature some of the higher ups seemed to have that were already here. He wanted to enjoy the moment, before the moment became all about this god forsaken war that is.
