Ilde rises up on her tail, raising an arm into the air to catch his attention-- regardless of whether or not she actually gets it, though, a minute later she dives beneath the water again to make for the shore, tossing her bag up nearby him before she follows it, pushing her hair back out of her eyes as she surfaces again.

"Hello," she says, neatly, huge-eyed and pearlescent, and then, "give me a minute."

As much as she probably wouldn't care if she walked around in the buff, the rest of the city is generally more inclined to require people actually wear clothes, and she's not that interested in being arrested for public indecency. Without her illusion, though, she is so very far from human- even if one isn't looking at her tail, moving restlessly behind her.
