At first, she'd thought it so crazy. Cap'n Triton's the oldest person she's ever known! She's never known anyone quite like him!

...but, that's the experience of everyone in Aionios. Certainly, it's the same for all the other members of Colony Mu.

Of course, she's found that it's nice, to be considered a treasure by someone who's seen so many, but she should be busy making him proud to do it, as her primary order of business!
