"Are there vampires on your Earth?" She hopes it isn't absurd for her to ask. On a world where magic is real and gods talk to humans, it's hard for her to predict what is outlandish and what is commonplace. "We had scary stories of them, but I... you know, I try not to judge anyone in the Nexus based on their physical nature. If I did, I doubt I'd have any friends." She certainly never would have befriended any robots.
"That sounds inconvenient, that his visions are so unpredictable. Does he know when one's coming on?" The description reminds her of seizures, curiously enough, and she almost asks if his cousin also had them as a child, but she thinks better of it. That's not her business. But it does make her wonder if there's any sort of hereditary connection between the two. "That's unfortunate, that people react that way. My friend's visions weren't the most reassuring, but I appreciated them anyway."
"Good," she says immediately. "Good for her." She relaxes immediately at the news, leaning back again and rewarding Lyra's patience with a good head scratch. "It was pretty bad, yeah. Khan tore up nearly half the Industrial District looking for Jim..." She trails off without going into detail, not wanting to give him any disturbing images. "And I was there... for a while, actually. I was using my first aid training to help the injured, but I wasn't anywhere near the fighting."
Adia had not forgotten their earlier conversation of magic and bloodlines. It again reminds her of royalty, although she can't help but frown a little as she considers the converse of his statement. "What about people with weak magic? What do they do?"
