She laughed lightly at the sort of, kind of, compliment. “Well, you’re probably the kind that has high standards, so that means we’re all doing pretty good!” She tilted her head at him, curious on the surface, critical under that. Would he make a good captain she had to wonder, he was so different from the entire mood of the ship. But Xiao Qiao also knew that there were many aspects to good leadership as her father would tell her whether she had cared to listen or not.

To treat everyone fairly, at the very least she was sure that Ryuzaki would be able to earn the trust of everyone easily enough. She hadn’t been on the ship very long but she could understand how the interactions and relationships worked. They would hold together, whether she’d become a knot in this net was another matter but it wasn’t like Xiao Qiao liked to over think things too much.

“I learned the basic techniques to dancing in Melior but as for everything else~ Well, that’s just passed down. Did you like it?” she asked, a slight hop and spring accenting her words. She didn’t spare a thought to anything else yet, still focused on Ryuzaki and the performance she had just finished.

"It is sufficient for the task at hand so I suppose that means it is good." He wasn't really one for compliments, unless they were very well deserved. But Xiao Qiao's dance had drawn a nicely sized crowd and they would likely make their way to the food stands. That was the main goal.

This was, in a lot of ways, his first real test as a captain. They would need to prove they were in the business of entertaining people and dig their way out of the debt the ship was in. He thought he was ready.

"It had a uniquely rhythmic quality and was graceful but with more jarring movements." He meant it as a compliment, of a sort. The dance was unique, and unique was not always better, but her execution had been interesting and pleasing. "Passed down through your family? Are you from a more isolated area?"

He should probably know a lot more about his crew, but he was hardly apt at small talk.
