T'ien-hsiang... he could try to pronounce it, but he has a distinct feeling that he'd make a fool of himself and seem vaguely insulting in a single breath if he does, and so Warsman simply nods. It is, actually, something of a relief to find himself using another handle; it makes his own name seem so much less conspicuous.

"Nikolai Volkoff- but most people only ever call me 'Warsman' these days." It might not be the most elegant of names, all brute force and violent suggestion, but he is more the boxer now than the derelict and somehow it sits better with him. A pause. "You're from China, then? Where did 'Temeraire' come from?"
