Austin listened to Eija and Micheal talk. Seems like they had a bit of family history going on here’s so he wouldn’t interrupt. He smiled  gently as he continued to eat. Man her smile was quite infectious, honestly, he felt like he needed a good smile in these dark, heartless times. He turned to the other man and nodded to him, what he spoke was true.... He needed to find a way to pass the time and not get into a huge mess trying to keep himself sane. [color=ed1c24]“I see. Very well then, I will try to keep that in mind sir. Now then, take a seat, unload a little, we all need relaxation not just me.”[/color] 

He nearly gagged however when someone without warning slammed their tray down beside him and made him jump in his seat and walk his knee against the bottom of the table. Fuck! That hurts! What is with him and tables today?! He turned to see and hear the newcomer and listened to his anger..... What the hell was he talking about? Conventions? Austin was quite confused.... [color=ed1c24]“Quite the entrance you’ve made...”[/color]

He listened to him and the doctor prattle on back and forth, he sure was aggressive in his speaking..... Looked like he wasn’t the only one having a bad day, a shame, but not unexpected. [color=ed1c24]“I honestly have no idea what your talking about..... But you seem to have had quite the day. So how about we all relax and try to cool off?”[/color] He would continue to listen and, like Eija said, he was welcome  stay, as long as he didn’t start any actual trouble. If no trouble was made, then Austin didn’t particularly care if he sat with them.

He then realized, even though he mentioned it earlier, this guy was also from Vinland! Well then, good to see a fellow statesman, but he politely declined the cigarette. [color=ed1c24]“Good to see another Vinlandian here besides myself! But I must decline the cigarette. I’ve never been keen on the things. My sister doesn’t react well to the smoke they make, so my family stopped, I don’t want to start up myself. Plus, it’s quite unhealthy, so I’d recommend not smoking at all, but I won’t try and force your hands, not my place. Just thought I’d give a recommendation of health, that’s all.”[/color] Austin smiled at the group, quite the lively bunch he has acquired, he will probably enjoy all their company.
