[There's obvious and immediate recognition in his eyes at the name she gives, but he still repeats it back to her.]
Fang?! [He makes a small, incredulous sound. A laugh that doesn't quite find its shape or form. If he seems rather delighted and possessing near child-like excitement over this development, it's because he genuinely is. He allows Chariot her privacy, letting her decide what to share with him and what not, but that has not stopped his curiosity about her Bonded all the same.] Don't tell me you're Ursula's Bonded...?
[He says 'Ursula,' but just as he is now Ramesses to her, she is Chariot to him. Ozymandias is willing to assume the same is true for Fang as it seems so unlikely that she could hide her shine from her Bonded the way she does the rest of the world. But willing to make the assumption and being willing to speak on it are two different things; the latter would feel like a betrayal without clear indication it would be otherwise. Just as Arthur's True Name is not to give, neither is the name Chariot du Nord, not even to her Bonded.]
