"I'm not a fish." She says with a bright laugh, being not quite old enough to grasp figurative language. "I'm a filly!" Kypria raises one pale forehoof as she says this, as if the leg itself is proof that she is what she claims. When she puts her hoof back down, the water has receded without her knowing, and she stumbles forward. Her translucent fins half-flare to provide additional balance, and the pale filly catches herself before she falls.
When the bay stallion introduces himself, Kypria tries for a moment to identify the name. She's heard it before, but the reason why escapes her. He seems very nice, so she is naively sure that his name hadn't been said in warning.
"I'm Kyp!" She tells him, nodding her head politely the way she'd been taught. This is the first time she is meeting anyone outside her immediate family, so she can only hope she is doing the right greeting. Should she have bowed? Without her knowledge, a small frown creases her expression. As quickly as it comes though, it fades away as her gaze flicks to the roan stallion down the beach.
"Hello!" She shouts, much too loud for the stallion standing near her. The white filly is oblivious, and she flares her far wing out to catch the distant horse's attention. "Hey! I'm Kypria!" All this is shouted across the space between them, and the young filly prances in place with excitement as she waits for Leilan to come closer.
"I like the sea all the time," She replies to the question Brennen had asked earlier. It's only just occurred to her that she hadn't answered it. "Daddy says he and Momma will teach me to swim in it soon!" Until now, she's only been allowed to walk atop water. It seems that the familial gift is a default when one is born with it, and that unlearning how to do it is the trickiest part. "Do you know how to swim? Do you?" Kypria asks them both, Brennen and Leilan.
