There's a brief pause while Luke parses what she just said. "Oh right, that's what they call soccer outside the states." Honestly, he never had been much a part of team sports. Not for any particular reason, as long none he'd ever thought hard about. In reality it was probably a mix of it never being encouraged and his tendency to aggravate people within short periods of time.

"I don't know if I'm that good with my feet, but if that's what's big around here I can give it a try." Just the same, despite the inexperience he was game. Particularly when the advice came from someone like Andy. "I don't think I've thrown a Frisbee around since I was ten, but I've done some mountain biking." The biking part, at least, he enjoyed. Taking trails between comfortable locations. He wasn't much of a camper. "I bet that could be pretty fun around here, too."

This was kind of nice. Luke wasn't the sort to have any particular aim with his conversation. He wasn't looking for any achievement, not even to make a friend or earn her respect. But it felt like it'd been a long time since he's gotten to talk casually with someone. He's quick to forget it's still essentially a test.
