Sorry..." he said, knocking knuckles gently at the side of his head. "Thank you for letting me know; I find my French ever remains a work in progress." He took no offense at her correction and laughed off the silly mistake he'd made before answering her question. "Yes! Russian! You have a very good ear. I'm afraid I haven't quite narrowed down your own accent... are you English, maybe? No... that's not right..." He furrowed his brow while he tried to place it once again and then softened the expression, getting rid of the thought with a shake of his head.<br/><br/>Her mannerisms were so peculiar that the Russian couldn't help but find her fascinating. He didn't understand how awkward she felt in social situations, reaching out to others was second nature to him. It really was remarkable how opposite they were of each other. "Thank you. She is a good friend as well." he responded, sending a glance to the tabby who had settled into a soft doughnut on his previous seat. He then turned to the crow and addressed him personally. "It is a pleasure to meet you, Monsieur Poe. I like you as well." He bowed at the waist with a mock-show at gentlemanly behavior with the bird.<br/><br/>"No, I have never had the pleasure of making a bird's acquaintance before. My parents had a small aviary, but they were merely caged birds in the garden who would .. flit about and ignore you no matter how you try to get their attention." For as much as the befuddled girl worried over his name and what to say or not say, he didn't seem to show any indication at being upset with any name she chose to call him - nor ever would.<br/><br/>"I'm glad I didn't upset you," he said, grinning. "I have a tendency to become a nuisance at times, I believe."
