    "Once again, such a pleasure to have met ye, Lady Stragia," Peters articulated meekly. He bowed and a confused Turtledove raised her head to look at Alya, her tongue snaking out from her mouth in farewell. "Long days and pleasant nights."

    "You must forgive me if I'm a little on edge," Peters said, flushing marginally. "My social skills are much more worn than my mechanical ones."

    "It's an easy fix, really. Only a minor inconvenience." Peters was intent on keeping Alya from feeling uncomfortable - It wasn't everyday he was recognized by royalty. Even so, Alya was much kinder to him than any of the upper class, or even middle class, that he'd come to face. "It starts with...

    "In fact-" He rolled up his pant leg to reveal the jammed leg replaced in all its glory. It, too, was brass and hand a glass screen with a keyhole indented in it for easy maintenance. "-I do. Lost the original to a fire, damn thing."

    "No idea. I found it strange, too, but my ma thought it'd be rude if I didn't show," Edgar agreed. "Plus, I got Hypno to protect me." He then addressed Jina. "It's a pleasure."

    "I'm in no position to judge," said Peters. Turtledove rested her chin on the crook in his neck. "There's nothing to be embarrassed about."

    Edgar chuckled turning his head to the two voices that had spoken. "It's no big deal," he proclaimed humbly. "Pleasure to meet you, Melody and Allegro."

    "Not at all," Peters said politely. He wasn't sure if she had taken any recognition of his malfunctioning leg. He didn't mind; as long as it didn't fall apart on him. "I can't imagine anyone not wanting to be graced by your presence."

    "She looks lovely," Peters agreed, rubbing the flat of Turtledove's head with his thumb. She was staring up at the princess curiously, but turned her head upwards at his touch. "Dear me, I think her status quo is higher than mine," he joked, continuing to gently pet her head.

    "Both are very thought provoking reasons," he replied with a sidelong grin and bent his head so that Alya could better access the imposing reptile.

    Peters nodded, smiling briefly. "Zoology does have its nobilities. I've always been interested in the science of the human anatomy and clockwork, so I was in luck when the demand for prosthetics arose." Turtledove had begun to wrap herself around his neck again. He wasn't worried about her...

    He perked up a bit at her compliment. "Brass was all I could afford," he replied earnestly. Turtledove had started to move again, much to Peters' pleasure. "They are of my invention, though. I was going blind and I doubt that I would be much good as a mechanic if I couldn't see what I was doing...

    Peters chuckled, resisting the urge to bow again under the knowledge that she was, indeed, royalty. He searched through the breast pocket of his shirt and retrieved a square rod of graphite and a scrap of paper. He wrote 206 Cambridge Drive in as legible writing as he could and handed it off to...

    He raised his head in surprise, a great smile playing upon his lips. "Of course," he agreed. He gave Turtledove a onceover, checking to make sure she was okay. Although she looked a little dazed, she was relatively unharmed. "Anything, my lady. I, erm, live a short while down from here in a...

    Peters caught onto the act quickly. He smiled, infinitely grateful. The crowd gave up on him and dispersed, though they still looked down on him as if he were some kind of disease.

    "Please," pleaded Peters as he pushed his way through the crowd. "Please, she is mine." There was uproar from the crowd and he, not for the first time, regretted his words. He was shoved and harassed, accusations from man, woman, and child alike thrown his way as he fought to get to his snake...
