Amanda watched the guy drinking water put his PDA away, and glanced up when Willis spoke "Mind if I join you?". She shrugged and nodded "Yeah, go for it. It's never fun drinking alone in here" with that she nodded in the direction of the guy as he ordered another water, this time she noticed the navy uniform 'Ah, that explains it' she thought and shook her head. As much respect as she had for them, she still didn't understand why they left their families behind. Perhaps her father was to blame for that.
Looking up at Willis, she bit her lip "I have some plans I want you to look over at some point" with that she pointed at the table where a dirty notebook and pen was laying, it was filled with half finished ideas and failures but she never stopped making plans. That was her second problem - always the optimist, no matter the situation. "Just need some outside advise on it. Just can't seem to get it efficient enough to even bother trying to show anyone the idea... Well, at the moment anyway." She grinned, and took another sip of her drink.
Amanda noticed how dirty she actually was and made a mental note to clean up a bit next time. She always ran into people when she was in a mess. At least they knew who she was - an engineer - and not some prissy rich kid like most of the guys around here seem to like to think. "Anyway, take a seat, you make the place look untidy" She laughed and glanced over in the general direction of the navy guy again. "Must have been a hard day, on the strong stuff, should see if he wants company.... Looks lonely."'Hmm, I'll have to get another drink soon' hers was almost empty.
