“Lovely!”, they copied, and giggled happily. From their messy hair, barely the beginning of two branches grew on their head, peeking through the wild tangled hair. They were easily overlooked with how small they still were.
Their big eyes looked curiously up at the other being, curious about their nature. So unlike anything and everything he had ever seen before, though he hadn’t seen anything before. Only a few hours ago did they open their eyes for the first time, seeing everything in this world.
Their laughter was utterly adorable, and if he knew the little one better he may of ruffled that mess of hair, though his eyes had drawn to the oddities hidden within, he didn’t question them. Whatever they were, he was sure they were still harmless.
Politely Q decided to crouch, he wasn’t extremely tall but human standards, but he wasn’t exactly short. So being friendly he came down to the others level, blowing stray blue strands from his silver eyes. “You don’t speak much yet hm?” It was hard to tell, based upon being mimicked twice the young thing either spoke another tongue or was in fact young enough to not know many words. Still, it didn’t hurt to attempt to get to know the other, they seemed friendly, and he was always happy for new companionship.
“Are you all alone here?”
The little spirit curiously looked at Q’s hair, blue not much unlike the sky, or the water. He reached out to it, wanting to touch it, wanting to feel the sky, the water of the lake, twinkling like the silver of Q’s eyes.
“Alone?”, they tilted their head. They looked to their tree, and then the lake, and then back at Q. They were alone, but they weren’t lonely! They had everything around them with them, talking with them, and they understood easily. They wondered if Q couldn’t.
