[He kind of winces too. But more out of sympathy than anything else. He's not really the best at making conversations with people after so many years of being friendless and thus socially awkward.]

I.. I go running. I spar with my friend. Trying to make sure I stay in shape and don't fall behind while I'm here. Umm, I come here and practice cooking.

[This is... awkward.]

I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean to come in and start criticizing your choices! If you want to drink that's perfectly okay! It just seems like it might be a little dangerous. Ahh, things can go badly here pretty quickly...!

[He bursts out in his attempt to try and mend this whole thing.]
