[ Mmmm.. A sympathetic tone. ]

Would you care for some tea, Sir Matsuno? Or perhaps some water?

[ Some people on this ship are white. Anyways no it isn't, this is actually a nice cup of darjeeling tea. Imagine I said yeah no they suck at making tea it tastes like garbage how did they mess it up.

Genuinely it is nice! They take a moment to observe, but seem pleased when he nods, warmth in their tone.

It gladdens me to hear. If you ever are in need of another cup later, do let me know. I have plenty to share.
