Was ISWM the first time your captainsona experienced a bunch of people being in awe of how handsome and/or beautiful they were, or have they received that kind of reaction before? How do they feel about it either way?

no, yin is very used to being called handsome and/or beautiful. in those exact words. (they're very androgynous; it's what people default to.) people joke that their parents must have been sirens or something, because while they are conventionally attractive, people struggle to describe what specifically elevates them to "otherworldly being of handsomeness and/or beauty." it's kind of just a Vibe they have.
