Amila had asked why Keir was standing away from the group, and was giving hir a friendly look when Keir replied, "Nothing I guess, just socially awkward. Maybe you can give me some pointers?" S/he moved towards the table, ready to return to the others.
Amila shrugged, "I dunno. Just be yourself. The cool thing about being in Starfleet is that everyone is from everywhere and are here to embrace different cultures and personalities," Amila replied. "There are going to be some jerks anywhere you go, but for the most part everyone here just wants you to be yourself." Amila was offering this encouragement when Keti's betrothed directed her attention to the table.
"Keir good to see you again, I am not sure if you remember but we met once before." It was a long time ago, and their meeting was in passing. Turning to Amila. "You must be Amila, I am Aja. The person who made his transition easier, and considering he doesn't really like change, it couldn't have been easy. I am happy to see the improvements Arwen and you are helping him with." Aja looked at Keti for a second. "I didn't know he had a fun side before."
Amila laughed good naturedly. She could be shy about taking complements, and she found making a light joke was an easy way to deflect the attention away from her. "I am. It's nice to meet you. I don't think Keti needed much help. I don't know if this is fun side or his competitive side. I think he just hustled our first officer at darts," Amila teased.
Amila watched Ameen step over to take his turn at throwing darts. Without realizing that her attention was so obviously divided she gave Keti a smile as he walked over after his turn. "Is that what happened with your bogus throw? You saw the love of your life and got distracted? That's really cute." She was being sincere and not giving him a hard time about the throw as much as she was prodding into his personal life.
