The smile that appears instantly on her expression, paired with that small step towards him as if she too felt the draw, do wonders for Maeglin’s ego in such a small moment. It endears her to him a little more, securing the idea that he may have very well picked the right stranger to approach. He would hate to entertain the idea that she could be equally excited to meet anyone else - and luckily he has no need of such thoughts.
So he can enjoy the novelty of being the one to cause such a smile.
And his own delight at being admired in turn is easy to revel in. Maeglin dips his head in acknowledgement, sky-blue eyes shining as he replies back smoothly - “I am exactly that.” A piece of the sky fallen to the ground. It was incredibly accurate - both in appearance and in his status as a Stratosian.
They did make quite the duo - gold and blue, sun and sky.
“I’m Maeglin, and I’m enchanted to meet you Betty.”
He wonders whether her laugh is as easy to coax out as her smile, but instead of attempting that just yet he asks with obvious curiosity. “Are you able to change what your wings are made of, then?” He’s fascinated by the idea since most of the things about him change unconsciously. There were bits of magic he could do but even they were tied to the time of day - fluctuating between the moon and the sun.
