It's not entirely irrelevant. My experience allows me to work around a lot of things. Joy, as a loner to you, is acting entirely within a plausible behavior with her outlook on the world. A fugitive on the run, wanted by the government, is offered food and a bath from someone she doesn't know nor has any right to trust the night after she killed some soldiers. This is a breeding ground for suspicion and paranoia, and with someone in her situation - one can never be too careful. Better to be safe, than sorry.
For me to have her just out and agree to go with Miro would be really inadequate storytelling and an asspull. I know you want to get the group together, and that's fine, but have faith in the handlers of these characters.
