Sucking through the wide straw was just as fun as focusing her attention on studying racetracks. She was just about to swallow another sphere when the large man sitting a couple seats down erupted with a booming laugh that shook the counter and the empty glasses behind it. The sphere had slipped unnoticed down her throat and though she struggled to cough it back up, she was quiet about it. She spit the sphere out of her mouth, not wanting to deal with the trouble that it brought when she unexpectedly swallowed it. That loud laugh was unexpected. Who knows how many metal walls that laugh can penetrate if it were to be found driving the truck. Joy glanced at the two sitting at the far end of the counter, though letting the fact that her hood slip back a bit, exposing the thin purple highlights in her hair, slip her mind as she stole another glance.<br/><br/>When Aurora spoke and mentioned hordes of the thugs waiting for them at every turn, she glanced to other places in the quaint bar they were in. The men were still playing their card game with the usual complaints and threats made. Outside was awfully quiet, but Joy assumed it was just because this was a more quiet part of town. This was a nice hotel and they even served the nutrient spheres here. Joy wondered if there was an ambush waiting to happen as they left the bar. Can't be too comfortable in any part of New Amsterdam. They had been a couple of times Joy escaped with her life just running away from vagrants wanting her clothes or something underneath them. Well, if Dane came along, she thought this would be a walk in the park.
