[He isn't sure what to make of the underground civilization, honestly. They had many fascinating things to offer, but something about it unsettled him.]
But, if there is seems to be any universal constant about humanity across worlds, an obsession with alcohol seems to be one. I expect your business will do just fine.
Wonderful. I've eaten already, but...I think today I can treat myself.
[She will head right for a vendor, another vampire that seems fairly familiar with her, handing her several sticks with a toothy smile and a nod for Hubert.]
[Edelgard pays and takes her sticks, giving it a few nibbles before leading him away. Turning a somewhat bemused smile his way around the stick she speaks up:]
You know I wouldn't ordinarily eat something like this, at home. However, it feels good against our teeth, Hubert. I'm told other vampires feel the same, and this vendor mixes in droplets of blood for customers with our condition.
Petting cats, it seems. [His tone is dryly amused, and entirely serious.]
It's a curious establishment. I can't imagine anything of the sort ever existing in Fódlan. [Hubert shakes his head.] They serve refreshments and offer... numerous cats of a variety I've never encountered. I feel ridiculous spending as much time at the place as I have been, but... I admit, I'm impressed with the coffee they serve there.
[She laughs, soft and sweet. Happy as a clam about it, too.]
Truly people take leisure time in the strangest ways in this city. Though it sounds entirely appropriate for Leslie. She'll be right at home with cats.

[Edelgard chuckles softly to herself, and then they're turning the corner into the marketplace.]
...Would you indulge me a little? I'd like to pick up some rock candy as we pass by the vendor.

Seeing as you are an autonomous individual with the means and will to acquire such a thing for yourself, yes. I shall indulge you.

Would you like anything sir?

No, thank you.

I still hardly understand the appeal of something that sweet, even with those unique allowances.

[It's a simple answer, and it should explain everything. There is no other reason for it, after all.]
As for it's sweetness, that's just personal preference. Much like how I've never really had a taste for coffee.
[But she'll drink it sometimes.]

[A mystery. Speaking of... ]
Have you seen the establishment that's taken to employing Leslie?
no subject
[And she's been busy with, you know, everything.]
What is she doing?
