"Anyone else, sen?" she asked, looking around. "No? All hright."
She sat down and folded her hands in her lap while she looked at them. One was reminded of a very enthusiastic kindergarten teacher on her first day in a new term.
"So hyou are from America, yes?"

*Alice nodded. Lea was so tiny that even with her sitting on Alice's lap, Alice could see over her.*
"Forks, Washington right now, though all of us are from different places originally."

"Ah. I've never been to America," Magda said, a little sadly. "Is it vonderful as peoples say?"

Edward glanced at the others.
"I guess that depends," he said. "What are you looking for?"

Oddly, the vision in her head was much like propaganda as well, and Edward shook his.
"Nothing is perfect," he said. "We're... vampires. It's not as if we'll ever really be at peace anywhere."

"Oh, hyou poor sing," Magda said feelingly, leaning over. "I don't sink anyone's ever totally at peace, no matter what sey are, but..."
She shrugged.
"Sivaroose and Lea and I do fairly vell for ourselves."

The thing was, she really felt that way, and Edward could see it. Which confused him, because he didn't see any way of really being at peace with what he was. Soulless, eternal, never fitting in. But Magda had a family. He did too, of course, and he loved them. But he didn't have this blinding optimism that he could, or should, be happy.
"I'm glad," he said genuinely. "You seem very happy."

She seemed to have that neurosis some women did to feed everyone, which Edward truly could not fathom since they were, you know, vampires. Bad enough to take in a child and marry a human and invite other vampires into one's home.
"No," he said. "That's very kind of you, but I think I'm fine."

Jasper shook his head when the red-haired vampire's gaze swung towards him. Like Edward, he was wondering why on earth she would feel compelled to offer something to drink when the only thing he really wanted was a huma- cougar. Or a bear. A deer. Definately an animal of some sort. Right.
Jasper swallowed. If this were the movie, his expression would be his trademarked PAAAAIIIIIN face.

*Alice's hand found his and she squeezed gently.* "Don't worry." *She said softly, looking over and smiling before turning to Magda.*
"I don't remember if I told you... we can't eat human food. Not the whole no-inclination-for-it thing, we literally can't process it. Thank you very much for the offer, though."

See, this was why Alice was an essential part of the family--she remembered to remind people of stuff like that that seemed obvious to Edward.
