[Apparently everything I'm doing with him involves food and drink, so let's just go with it. It's with a mix of mild trepidation and curiosity that Noel takes the tankard, not because he's underage or anything --no one on Nova Chrysalia has cared about that for a laughably long time-- but because in spite of his depressingly long time being alive, he's never tried the stuff.
Well. Now's as good a time as any, right?
He sniffs it first, makes a face, determines it probably tastes better than it looks...and cautiously goes for it. Then, with a little urk! and a pained expression, he determines that no, it does not taste better than it looks. He's almost too distracted to hear the question, but manages to start cleaning himself up --it's bad, it's gross, it's making his eyes water-- enough to nod a bit.]
A few months, I guess. [In lieu of asking the same, thinking he'd probably have noticed a guy like this before, he instead points at the tankards.] Is this some kind of weird prank? Do people really drink this stuff?
