[Maes takes a seat as Roy gets the supplies for their drinking. He watches, wanting to know where to find these items later. He's got a lot to learn, but at least everyday items are something basic and can come in handy later.
Or now, he thinks, as he accepts the cup. He looks down at the liquid, skeptic after his encounter with the seemingly innocent flower. It isn't exactly reassuring to be told it will numb the tongue. He's pretty sure he's heard of alcohol like that in the northern regions. But, you didn't turn down a friendly drink and Maes has a feeling he is going to need it not just for the conversation ahead, but for what he wants to try. The kitchen is fairly safe after all...and Roy is here so if anyone is going to help him with something weird it would probably be him.
He returns the salute, before taking a sip.
Roy's statement still hadn't quite prepared him for the strength of the drink and he winces.]
