I take his hand.
His hand shake is very firm as I would expect, if he truly is ...Stalin.
"I am Lady Violet Zadung, secretary general of the party."
I smile pleasantly.
"I was just headed to my office since I always get to work early. Are you...are you really Joseph Stalin?"

"Yes, of course I am." he says, seeming slightly angered by the doubt. Did he not walk, talk and look like Stalin? The temper was expected also, since he truly was Joseph Stalin.
"I am Joseph Stalin; Political and Military Advisor."

"I will look into the Outlaw. Depending on which of you is having more trouble, I will send him to assist you in your missions."

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to doubt you." I say after reading his mind.
"I am the demon clone of Mao Zedong so it is not that unusual that you are here."

"It's nice to meet you then, do you wat me to call you Mao or Lady Violet Zudang?" he asked, placing his hands behind his back in typical Stalin fashion.

"I would prefer if you simply called me Violet."
I start to lead him towards my office. I am a little star struck by all of this so I act less self assured than usual.

"So, this is the new advisor I have heard about. Such an auspicious character indeed, I see our cloning facilities have done a most excellent job," I say to Violet and Stalin, stepping out of the shadows.

((This was supposed to go before Lin-Sat's post. Sorry.))
"Ok then." Stalin said, following her.
He looked around and frowned. "Back when I was head of the Soviet Union, the buildings would be full of people at this time. Where is everybody?"
First, there's not a single picture of him in the halls. Second, she doubted if he actually was Stalin and third, no one was at work but this Violet. Something was wrong. The world could not have gotten so lazy in his absence... could it?

I am not sure how to answer his question propertly so I look to Lin-Sat.
I don't want to offend Mr. Stalin or make him think that I am an innept party leader.

"Red Infinity is an organization that looks towards the future," I say to Stalin.
"We do not spend time looking behind, for it can distract one from progressing further."

"A man with no past, has no future." Stalin said, gesturing with his right hand. "The future is important, but if we don't learn from the mistakes of the past... then we could wind up like the Soviet Union once Gorbechev took over. Bah!"

"You misunderstand me. We do not wholly obliterate our past, but we do not idolize it either."

"Ah, I see." Stalin said, now understanding. He stroked his mustache as he followed Violet and Lin-Sat. "Still... where is everyone?"

"Yes, I agree that we should be more mindful of history. We have been suffering some problems because other party members are not as dedicated as I or Lin-Sat are. They often slack and do not see the importance of their work. "
I say, trying to suck up to Stalin.

"Indeed. Which reminds me, Violet, I've been meaning to institute measures to correct such indolence. Especially among the dragons. That Damascus is a slacker, and Valkoinen has been shirking his duties and chasing after some Japanese woman. I want them both firmly disciplined. We must make an example of our most powerful operatives for the rest to fall in line."
