[Definitely used to it. It's something that she'll never forget. It colors all of her earliest memories, twisted so tightly around her not!heart that she cannot help being on edge now.]
[The mention of her 'apparent' age did nothing to set her at ease, nor did the step toward her, which caused a subtle tensing in her shoulders. Still, she is not one to jump to conclusions; there are plenty of reasons to make such a distinction in a place like the tower. It's not until she hears that name that she knows who or what she's dealing with. Her lips part slightly and she straightens, though these might just as easily have indicated her surprise at such a preface to his introduction, were they not just a bit too late. (Funny, how she actually feels calmer now that she knows more of what to expect.) The tension in her shoulders eases slightly, but she's not relaxed, either.]
That sounds like a good name. It's nice to meet you, Wilhelm. [To finally meet him, that is - not that she'd necessarily been eager to. There's a hint of a delay before,] My name is Naminé.
