More like I'm excited to finally get to meet people instead of staying behind to do super boring work. [ there's a pause as they stare at his hand before they do the proper royalty greeting of lightly kissing his knuckles. ]
Hmm, something's off... [ they curtsy? on top of that? ] Ugh, whatever. [ they shake their heads ] We don't remember our names. Didn't the others tell you? It's so obnoxious.
Okay, but they're both going to sound really lame. We kind of woke up with the masks around? So ... assigned secret identities, maybe? Or it was our favorite animals, but I can't see myself liking swans best. They're pretty! But that's kind of it.
[ they wave a hand around a bit ]
And the team assignments were totally random. For fairness, probably. Not that I don't like my team! You guys seem fun from what I've seen. From far away. Because I had to do boring castle work.
Oh! [ they don't seem to mind that idea? ] Well, the others probably won't go for it, but if I had to pick a bird, I'd have picked a phoenix. They're immortal and on fire? Why would you ever want to be anything else? I could just swoop in and burn the disturbance, and if anything happens to me, surprise! I'm back!
[ they're clenching their fists in front of themselves and grinning, like they are imagining violence. ]

[Holding out a hand, though it's in that way where it's like a princess instead of a handshake.]
Still no real names, huh?

[He makes a bit of a face, but he seems mollified by the hand kiss, as is appropriate.]
What do the teams mean?

[ his question though... they tilt their head a bit ]
Um, like, what the animals mean? Or why you're on mine?

I see. So, if you did have to choose a favorite animal, what would it be? We can just rename the team. Who cares if it's just based on a mask.
