Little horned monkey... What. He probably wasn't attempting to distract her from whatever moment he was having, but that certainly does cut through her thoughts like a hot knife. Her brow furrows, and she accidentally vocalizes that "What", which trails off into an awkward laugh. Is that a thing in his world??? Horned monkeys??? Maybe that would make sense...
She clears her throat, repositioning a modicum of dignity back into her expression. "I'm a tiefling. Not a... horned monkey. More like a horned human. And my name's Klaudia."
She almost holds her hand out to shake, but he's already holding something, and she's not sure that feathers can work in handshakes like that... She's also still sitting, so curtsying is a little difficult without making a whole Thing out of it. But the bird does have sleeves, so maybe it wouldn't be a long shot to try... After a moment of hesitation, she cups her hands together and does a little half bow from her chair. A small greeting!
"What's your name?" She looks up again and fixes him with as much curiosity as she dares to. She's being normal. Friendly and normal. "Are you... some kind of dire peacock?"

Mostly normal.
