A street child, then? How curious. She wouldn't have thought him one, he seemed too carefree for someone who led such a harsh life. Then again, first impressions could be deceptive.
"I will stick to calling you Duo," she decided after a moment of thought, "calling you just by your last name would be no less rude." But maybe they don't have titles and honorifics where he is from, or at least don't use them as often. Or he just doesn't care for them. In the end, it doesn't matter much.
Names matter, of course, but that is for different reasons. For the affiliation they stand for, foremost.
She shakes her head a little, shaking off these wandering thoughts. "Either way, I'm glad to have met you, Duo Maxwell. Come to the apothecary when you can for the exam and... if there is anything else I can help with, to make settling in easier for you, then you can come for that, too."
