It takes long, but not forever. It's a young filly, of this season probably, that notices him standing upright and staring. She had been running through the meadow and he'd glanced at her, but only when she stops it becomes staring, and slightly, grinning at her when she realizes it's not an ordinary animal that is looking at her now.
As a meerkat, winning a staring competition is probably the easiest thing to do - at least, with a horse, since that's an animal that is more used to trying to see as much in their surroundings as possible. Kybeth has always relied on others to do that for him instead; he should be living in a tribe but alas, he has not found any other of his second-nature species about the place.
The filly actually outed some words. Kudos for that. He pitches a high-sounding chuckle, giggle almost, and waves at her with his one fore-paw. "Hello. Shouldn't you be with your herd?" he wonders. Or maybe just with her mother, he's not one to mind much. "I'm Kybeth." he continues. As if it's just a normal every-day exchange between horses. Well, to him it is, maybe, but that's not something she would know now, would she?
