-Chang, with Charlotte, Speaking with T^3 and Mist-<br/><br/>Chang looked over to Thaddeus with a smile they conveyed a natural warmth. Weather it was practiced or real was near impossible to tell. Then again, with the glowing Charlotte on his arm, one would be hard pressed to believe that Chang was not in a good mood.<br/><br/>“The HMS Monsoon, Chief Thudpucker the Third,” he began, his mind working as he looked to Thaddeus, “she is a dirigible Man o’ War in the Sky Corps.” His voice was smooth as he spoke, reciting his thoughts as he recalled what he knew about the Monsoon. “ She is what, 24 guns to a side?  A remarkable ship, some of her avionics and navigation are the best in the fleet. That you are her Chief Navigator is a credit to you.”<br/><br/>Chang gave a polite bow the Thaddeus, and then nodded to the young man beside him before returning to meet Thaddeus’s gaze. “Your assistant I see?” Chang asked without a break in tone or speech. He seemed to notice Mist but did not pressure the youth into conversation, nor did he stare at the exceptional filtration mask the young man wore. “I do that you both find the Pleasure Dome to be relaxing compared to the service you provide in the fleet. With that said, let me introduce the guiding light for my walk this evening. Chief Navigator Thudpucker, this is Charlotte, the youngest of Doves that seek refuge here in the Pleasure Dome and my escort this evening. Charlotte my dear, let me introduce Thaddeus Theodore Thudpucker the Third, Chief Navigator of the illustrious HMS Monsoon, Dirigible of the Sky Corps, and his aid.”<br/><br/>Pure formality, the voice presented in complete sincerity as he made the introductions. As he spoke of Charlotte he brought her forward, encouraging her with his arm to step to the fore, see and be seen. But there was something more. As he spoke of Thaddeus’s title, he did so with a rich tenor, loud enough to carry some tables away. Not a shout, but a commanding sound of a crier, announcing a royal to enter the room. It was intentional, patrons and staff would now know of the man, the meeting, and from that… from that trades would be made. Silently he marked the time, soon her toy would go off again. He would have to find Marie soon, he had use for her with Charlotte.<br/>
