Charles walked over, his held head down, the tails of his coat, flew along with his long hair, he hoped he was not being inpolite by haivng long hair, he just preffered it so, and wasn't going to follow any fashions that claimed that his hair was a fault. He spotted a lady at a window when he looked up breifly and decided that he should probably make a freind. "Evening mi'lady."

Charlotte was startled out of her musings. Politely, she said, "It's miss. I have no title, but thank you." She looked at his person and noticed his hair. Slightly longer than was fashionable, she found it intriguing.

"Ah, sorry miss." he apologized, he wasn't so social, so he acted as if everyone was more important than he was, it usually made things easier. he looked up again, and caught by her eyes. He felt uncomfortable.

Charles sat down slowly onto a near-by bench, "Thankyou miss, but I must request that you sit as well."

"How are you miss?" he asked smiling, he had to start some small talk, or he'd become more uncomfortable than he was now.
