[ That sounds like a whole load of thinking Steak has never done in his life. Bad things happen, but one has to move on sooner or later or things consume.
For every Bloody Mary escaping out of the ballroom before he or Red Wine could catch the bastard, there's his Attendant finally expressing his love for madam. ... Or some good whiskey. ]
I doubt anyone cares.
[ Steak certainly doesn't. It seems like plenty of people are being generous with their alcohol intake to him.
(He can relate on the feeling of stiffness, though. He makes a better bodyguard than guest at things like this.) ]
I wanted to meet new people.
[ Honestly, bluntly. He doesn't know that many people yet, and if he's going to be stuck here, he may as well work on making some sort of life here. ]
You're just taking this all in, huh? Don't tell me this kind of stuff happens to you all the time.
[Jumping into a new world, dreaming of a real place with real dangers, and then having a party. Of all of those things, how did the party become the strangest to happen to him?
Meeting new people. He should be like that, meeting people and making friends.]
Did you meet anyone interesting yet?
[Maybe he's just trying to avoid meeting them. Even though he shouldn't.]
[ He would rather it never happened in the first place but... ]
What's happened has happened. [ He can change a lot of things, but not his arrival here, nor the fact that parts of him are slowly changing. So, instead, Steak thinks about the question, if only for a moment. ]
Everyone. They're from very different worlds to my own.
[ It's not even a cop out, the fact that no one recognises what he is, or understands Tierra is, in and of itself, interesting.

... and frustrating, admittedly. ]
