It's not often Héctor is caught staring, but with his mind on whatever had set Isabel off that morning, he hadn't realized his gaze had fixed on the person unlucky enough to be standing besides him.  He quickly glances back to the festival booth before them-- one of jewelry gathered undoubtedly all up and down the silk road -- before he sighs.  It's probably best to address his faux pas head on.

"Ah.  Excuse my rudeness," he says.  "I seem to be lost in my own head today."

She didn’t react - she had hardly even noticed, in truth. Her eyes were bright, and her cheeks coloured with spots of pink, telltale signs she had already been indulging herself in the drink inside. “Rice wine. I’ve never even heard of it before, but it’s good stuff.” She poured some into the cup before them, nudging it in his direction. “It would be rude not to make the most of it, no?”
