What a confusing question! Iolite opened their mouth to tell Rei that of course, it wasn't Fae magic, they were just very good at everything. Then they paused. They couldn't very well say it wasn't Fae magic, now could they?

"Oh yes!" Iolite nodded so hard it must have hurt their neck. "We can do that now if you wanna, just don't get excited if you see a shoe Gnome carrying my renny's shoes off. They really like his left shoes."

Iolite reached down to take Rei's hand and proceed to drag him down the spiral of stairs to an open silvery kitchen. A pair of sliding doors led outside where a large garden with a mini village could be seen. Whether the village was decorative or not had yet to be seen.

"We have," Iolite had grabbed a stool to peer into the freezer atop the fridge, then random cabinets and, at last, the fridge itself. "Juice — orange and apple, yum! — milk, cheese, apples, lunch meat, chips..."

Things moved faster than expected. Before Rei could make a response, his hand was grabbed by an excited Iolite before being pulled downstairs to the kitchen. Almost immediately, his eyes were drawn to the mini village. "Do people live in the garden? I saw some small... buildings? Is that where the shoe gnomes live?"

It must have been difficult to be lonely in this house. Ignoring the fact that Iolite had an entire court and was part of the Drakenhardt family, here they had their parents, shoe gnomes, and hidden villages. As discomforting as Rei found it, he was also extremely jealous.

After asking his question, he judged his options. Everything Iolite listed off seemed too normal to be true. The juices were probably magical in some way. That didn't stop him from attempting to make something fancy: lunch meat with cheese with apple juice as a beverage.

"Oh! By the way, I heard that if you drink too much apple juice, you can get drunk. I don't know if that's really true though, but let's be careful."

"Hm? OH! Not usually? Sometimes little things find their way there but renny usually chases them off!"

Iolite set to work on helping Rei create his magnificent sandwich. Iolite didn't need to eat, but making food for other people was always fun! Even if they had a tendency to overdo it. Speaking of overdoing it, at this point they were playing a rather precarious stacking game with the things on Rei's sandwich. Cheese. Cheese. Meat. Meat. Cheese. Cheese. Etc.

When Rei mentioned the possibility of apple juice getting them drunk, Iolite's eyes widened and they poured themselves a large glass to test it. They believed Rei about 110% percent and thus, the placebo effect was sure to take place.

They gulped the glass down and began to wobble. "Ooooooh."

Rei nodded at Iolite's explanation of the village. It still weirded him out and it showed on his face, but Iolite's help at making his sandwich distracted him. Now... how did Iolite expect Rei to fit this into his mouth? He couldn't unhinge his jaw like a snake... Could he? Not like he ever tried. He was stretchy and flexible, after all.

The bigger concern was Iolite getting drunk off of the apple juice and how quickly it happened. "W-Wait! I said we should be careful."

He gave a semi-envious look to Iolite. Rei wanted to join in with the drunkenness too, but every drunk person needed the person who could drive the car. But... a little couldn't hurt. Even the person driving needed some fun. Probably.

Just like Iolite, Rei drank a large glass of apple juice, then wobbled a bit. Being the more mature one, his tolerance was stronger than Iolite's, which made him feel only a little bit dizzy. "Thiss issn't thaaat baaad. It'sss... Hic... It'sss kiiind of fuun!"
