OOOpsie!
"Oh, I see," Newt's features looking suddenly a little more interested. To his knowledge Louis was the only other non-straight person he'd encountered thus far and it cheered him to know that Lestat had a husband somewhere in the hotel, even if they weren't sharing a room currently. It gave him a snap-shot of a possible future he might have, if he managed not to be sent back to his own world. "I'm sure you and Louis will find plenty of time together," Newt answered diplomatically. "Don't be surprised when you get sent back to your own room, though," he said with a grin. "When Thomas spends the night with Teresa he's often confused when he wakes up," he said chuckling good-naturedly.
He turned his attention to the bottles Lestat pointed at and picked up one of the little strips and, like a puppy with a new trick, attempted to spritz it with perfume. Newt waved it about a bit as he'd seen his new friend do and then sniffed it and gave a wrinkle of his nose. "People spend money to smell like this?" he asked, the concept seeming strange. It didn't smell bad but people smelling of flowers and stuff seemed simply weird to him! "Is that a lot of money, then?" Newt asked as he watched Lestat pay for his goods.
Newt gave a nod and his brow wrinkled in confusion, "I've never heard of your France or your New Orleans," he said with a small smile. "Apparently my world is incredibly strange to a lot of people, so yours is probably the more usual. Were you and Louis married for long?" he asked Lestat, the various historical dates meaning nothing to him. "This place is pretty," Newt said, glancing back in the direction of the hotel, "and it's peaceful too. Most of the time, anyway." Apart from the times there were new worlds, or strange monsters, but it was a definite improvement on his original life.
Lestat's question gave him pause for thought and he wasn't entirely sure how to answer. "I quite liked my pirate's outfit," he said after a moment, "though I don't think I'd want to wear it all the time. The coat was a bit too fancy," Newt said with a smile. "What do you think I should wear?" he asked curious to know this man's opinion.
