Good news: this is a serious inquiry.

Bad news: this is a serious inquiry.

"Oh, I know," Eliza says with that same, simple cheeriness as before. Although he likely didn't interact with him very much before, Dedue may be having flashbacks to one Raphael Kirsten. It is the exact same vibe: one of a completely empty skull. "I read the sign that this was the produce section."

Still, the question does seem to be an odd one, judging by the slight shift in his expression, and Eliza pulls her hand back. "I suppose that was a silly question? I'm new in town, so I'm not sure about what things are just assumed here, you see. So does that mean they are defanged?"

If this is a joke, Dedue is fairly certain that this would be the point where said joke would be revealed, so her continued sincerity must be genuine. And she does, indeed, bear a kind of... passing resemblance to one of his old schoolmates, which does help to convince Dedue that she's being earnest.

And she is apparently new in town?

"I see," Dedue says, which is entirely a placeholder as he tries to determine a reasonable explanation for why someone would ask if their eggplant has teeth. Is it an issue of translation, and she means something else but only knows this particular word to describe it? It doesn't seem like that's the case, and he hadn't encountered any previous problems with language barriers, either.

"I do not believe that vegetables usually grow teeth here." He sure hopes that they don't, because none of the materials that he'd received mentioned anything like that and it would be a hell of a surprise to bite into a tomato and find out that it bites back. "There is some produce that is fit only for consumption by Pokemon, but it is clearly marked. I understand that it will make humans ill if they eat it, but not fatally so."

"Oh?" Eliza blinks. She'd heard about the poisonous berries, of course, but that hadn't been surprising. Plenty of things became poisonous, and yet there always seemed something more than happy to eat them. Where there's a will, there's a way...

But for them to not have teeth or venom at all in the grocery store...!

"That's incredible!" she exclaims, clasping her hands together as she leans over the selection with renewed interest. "And that cuts away so much time from cooking! It must be a lot easier without all that work..." But oh, right - Eliza smiles up at Dedue again. "Thank you so much! That frees up some of my night~."
