She had an immense curiosity about life
The mysterious man before her stopped swimming and soon, all eyes were on her and boy- were they wide! The reaction earned a little giggle from her. Had this been his first time seeing a merperson? Surely not! They were pretty common and could be decently friendly at times. Then again, there had been some strange new people arriving, so maybe he was one of them? No matter, any person to talk to would be fun and the fact that he was so surprised only made Delta feel even safer around him.
Tilting her head to the side, she let out a hum as she contemplated the question. Did she need help? "No, no I don't need any help, and no need to call me miss." She let out a small fit of laughter at that. She wasn't a miss! A miss is for someone a lot older, even if he was trying to be kind or respectful. It was too sophisticated and he didn't need to be using such language with her. "I guess I just wanted someone to talk to... and maybe I could help you work on your strokes?" It was an attempt at a joke, awkward as it may be.
"I was hoping to talk to a human today. Just learn more about them," Would she blatantly ask him? Probably not, but this was as obvious of a request as she would say. Besides, she could still people watch if he said no, plenty of other humans on the surface to choose from!
