Lilo listened patiently without visible reaction, hands folded behind her back, as the younger girl launched into her introduction. Sharing a house with Pleakley had quickly accustomed her to people who talked quickly, so the youngster was easily able to take it in her stride.
When she got a space to reply, she nodded earnestly.
"Yeah, I kinda guessed you weren't from around here by the wings. They're cool. Are you part vampire, then?"
Vampires weren't usually associated with feathered wings, in Lilo's experience; if they had wings at all they were usually more bat-like. But if Darcy was indeed from another universe - and she saw no reason to doubt that - then who was to say vampires there followed the same rules as here?
At least, it seemed logical to her.
It sounded like it was her turn to do the introduction thing, too. While Lilo did try not to make friends with tourists, who would typically go back home after their holidays and she'd never see them again, it was only fair to return roughly the same amount of information she'd been given, right?
"I'm Lilo Pelekai. I'm nine years old, I live just on the outskirts of town, and I'm the official Earth Ambassador to the Galactic Federation on planet Turo."
As matter-of-fact as can be, as if absolutely nothing she said was the slightest bit weird.
"I also value family highly. Does that mean you have an 'Ohana too?"
