Her pouch is important; she is never without it! Jin Mi frowns, trying to understand why he would use the past tense? So he knows someone finds him and helps him, but -
"Someone told you about the future?" she concludes, nodding, "My honey works well on you. I'm sorry for calling you a Crow."
"Not much," he allows. "I remember being attacked and then falling. Then I was brought here, and my brother did not seem surprised to find me alive." Hence, he doesn't die and someone had helped him.
But to be called crow has him give her a bemused look. "Why crow?" So insulting to the firebird he is!
"My special honey is something I've been working on for centuries! It's a mixture of rare herbs with the honey to lend them sweetness." Jin Mi pulls out the vial and pops open the top to let him smell, "Oh I... I'm Jin Mi."
Which means nothing in the heavenly realm.
"The... The daughter of the Water Immortal and the Floral Immortal."
And she'd used it to heal him. He leans in to sniff the vial, still considering her thoughtfully. Most people would have already stated what they wanted for helping someone of his status. But she seems...
Different.
Only for him to blink at the name and claim of two Immortals as her parents. Straightening, it also settles into place just who this is. And why, despite her parentage, he wouldn't know her name. He stifles the frustration - if his wings were visible, they'd ruffle then resettle around him.
He's finally met an interesting woman...and she's spoken for.
He pastes a smile on, hoping it's at least somewhat convincing. "It's nice to meet you." Again.
That particular part hasn't sunk in yet. Imagining herself as the potential bride to either of the brothers seems so far-fetched that she almost laughs at herself. She has only been an innocent sprite for all of these years. Why would such great immortals want to marry her?
Jin Mi smiles at his good-nature and tells herself that is likely why she hasn't demanded anything of him. As long as she stays in contact with him, Rou Rou has a better chance of being revived.
"I'm a little sad you don't remember me, but you can't help it." she gives him a bow, "Are you sure you're healed?"

"You were all black and burnt! To a crisp!" she tuts and shakes her head, "I planted you in the ground, watered you and fed you honey."
