"When I tried to get a drink, they just gave me alcohol! My brother didn't like that very much." Which was fine, actually, since he wasn't super into the taste, but still.

"But I've never really been at such a big party, either. We never really had them back home." And the only time he's really been to one was here in the Carnival but it... Well it went poorly, so he prefers not talk about that one. It would be hard not to be a little traumatized by your brother being turned into a vampire after all!
