Aqua doesn't believe that anymore??? Or those people got luckier, but now all those bottles on the wall are a source of severe mistrust. Not Lapis though yet since she's definitely one of the displaced. Honest mistake on her part, obviously.

As for Lapis's question, uhhh, that's a hard one. Wax is...

"Wax is a compound used for a lot of things." Aqua sticks her poor tongue out, briefly. Bleh. "Mostly wood flooring and candles as far as I know."

Weird then, since most of this place is metal. Also if anyone is drinking wood polish they aren't human and/or are very sick as a result.

"It's not edible."
