Don't think Shreya hadn't noticed the admiring look he'd flashed himself in the water — but she was perfectly fine with that. She didn't judge vanity the way some did, unless it led to narcissism. But this chap had an air of niceness about him, and Shreya elected to judge him by that rather than by the prettiness of his face.
After confirming her guess that he was in the process of incorporating himself into the pack, the male went on to speak of the gender imbalance and breeding and a humorous theory that they were Amazons. This joke would've been lost on many, but Shreya, being old and having spent some time on the road, had heard similar tales. She smirked vaguely.
And then, phew, the introductions at last. Heston eh?
She was unable to resist the urge to shake her coat briefly just then, even as she stood there in the water, and droplets flew hither and thither. She adjusted her paws, then said brightly:

so, hardy and confident boy like you: you're looking to find a mate here at the Creek?
