[Utter bafflement on Caitlyn's part, because it's tea. Why wouldn't they have tea? Apparently it was some sort of house blend even, they'd seemed quite proud of it. And, to their credit, she'd have to say it was quite nice.]
Oh yes, well of course.
[Mild confusion again, because she'd simply said it was a place where the summoned liked to gather. Why would that imply she thought everyone here was like them? That would be awfully presumptuous. Though she'd yet to learn that declaring her Summoned status might be an issue, but given how clearly new she is to everything it's not like she can pass for a local.]
Forgive me, it's just I had assumed that you weren't from here either. You just look... different somehow.
[Maybe that's not the politest way to say it, but there was something about the other woman that definitely made her seem different in a good way. Honestly, if she was the one doing the picking for something like a summoning, this woman was exactly the sort of person she'd consider.]
Not quite, but I've lived in the same City for my entire life. I've ben outside it, but never quite like this.
[The undercity was also quite large, but it's not like she was going to stay there so it hadn't really mattered too much if she could make her way around it by herself.]
