[The cat mrows back at Lance's greeting, rubs his cheek on his ankle, and trots off, satisfied. Mello nods and takes lead in walking toward the kitchen. He can understand Lance's wariness better than most, and though he continues the conversation while walking, he remains alert, out of habit.]
That's right. [And, before Lance can ask, he adds:] German is one of many languages I studied as part of my education - which I know was a bit unorthodox, but I think it's a stretch to call it brainwashing, or to describe it as cultish.
[But that's why Lance is here, after all. Once they reach the kitchen Mello gestures toward the table and chairs in the center, as oddly shaped but serviceable as all the furniture in Hadriel tends to be.]
Before we start, would you like a glass of water? I don't have much else here ... I don't do much social entertaining.
