[It's certainly something that's made her a little more willing to give people the benefit of the doubt, and from what she's seen most of the people pulled here from different worlds aren't totally terrible people. Some of them have been kind, even, and she has to remind herself that first impressions aren't always something that can be so easily shaken off.
Not everyone is Finn, willing to look past getting smacked in the face with a staff and then snapped at about no touching every turn. If she wants to survive this place it will be easier to do it without isolating herself and anyway, she doesn't want that. Not here, where so little makes sense.
So, that means at least attempting to be kind when she can be. It's easier said than done, though, and after she's followed him in silence for a few feet she finally realizes maybe an introduction is in order.]
[ Hey, at least she's putting in an effort. Noctis doesn't think he even deserves that much, for knocking her into those plants to start with. That's not why he didn't introduce himself, though. He's just a thoughtless idiot. Which he realizes as she introduces herself. ]
Noctis.
[ He answers, and really... that's a great introduction back, right there. But what else is he supposed to say. Nice to meet you? He pushed her into a poisonous plant. Not exactly a nice meeting. Where are you from? Another star, probably, and someplace he's never heard of. Nice weather? Yeah, right. ]
...Damn, these things are everywhere.
[ Whining about the vines. That's good conversation, right? At least they're coming up on the shops fast. ]
