The girl seems sweet - naive even - and Djinni wonders if she knows how fortunate she is to have found the grullo mare rather than the less savory characters that haunt the forest. There are a myriad of ways to take advantage of such wide-eyed good nature. Djinni is not of a particularly dark nature, but to think that there is nothing calculating about her is a grave mistaking.
"It's nice to meet you too," she replies with an open smile that betrays none of this. Why bother the girl with the ways of the world now? It is a bright and sunny day; there are better things to do then worry.
"Plenty of seals," Djinni answers, appreciating her enthusiasm, "And unfortunately, plenty of seagulls as well." The shrieking call of the gulls fades from active attention after a while, but to say that she is not glad that most of the flocks have begun their winter migration would be a lie.
When Lumi speaks again, Djinni listens curiously. She speaks as though she has no choice to go with her family, that where her parents lead she will follow. Such thinking is wise for a young thing, but Lumi is not a child.
"I'm sure they'll enjoy Tephra," Djinni says with a smile, "But it sounds like you might like Nerine. Have you thought about striking out on your own?" She phrases it carefully, leaving space for either answer. Though she has in fact recently been instructed to find recruits for the seaside realm, Djinni has never been the best at following orders. The tobiano mare isn't interested in recruiting Lumi, but there is something both satisfying and worthwhile in offering new ideas to those who might not have thought of them on their own.
