Re: Steve + Bobbi
"That there are some people who are just as awkward at mingling as I am," he said with a sympathetic smile as he watched a person trying to mingle into a group but went ignored and thus shuffled away with their plate. There was also Clint, seeming afraid to mingle. "Then there are some people who are not having any trouble with it at all." Like Bobbi. Like Zinda who was anything but shy. Like the young man with the dark hair and blue eyes who also had a plate brimming with food. "Some are somewhere in the middle. Not intimidated but only want a few people's company." His eyes looked to Maria on that one. Everyone was telling a story with how they were interacting and not, but he wasn't giving details, and that was the game. Giving details.
"This one I can't figure out." He glanced over to where James and a blond young woman were. The girl was obviously a few years older, very early twenties it looked like. "Every time someone goes toward her, he finds a reason to walk away." He subtly nodded to a dark haired kid, around the same age as the girl, but who looked more occupied with picking up a few more carrot sticks from the table. "Doesn't quite look like shyness. But as soon as she's by herself, he drifts back over and starts talking again like he hadn't left. Trying to keep a subtle relationship or start one?"
