[peektuttut]

[On a teeny tiny communicator made of acorns and fairy dust and BELIEF is Tim. Who has an acorn top as a hat. Oh and wings. He has wings, too. They're still for the moment, but they twitch and he lifts off his tiny branch in his very big tree every now and then, because HOW DO SIT STILL.]

Hey! Listen!

[No that's all you get for now. Timkerbell

[Sherene hears a noise nearby, like a tiny musical instrument crashing into a solid object, and turns in its direction; immediately she spots something sparkling squished up against a tree branch. Cautiously, she approaches, and -

A fairy! How exciting. Very, very carefully, she dislodges him, cupping her fingers around him to shelter him from the wind.]

[Ohhh, his head. He must have lost his hat somewhere, but he feels like his pulls must be jumbling around his head, because for a few seconds his vision is blurry. Tim holds his head as he's lifted - then he realizes he's being lifted and curls up, arms out as if to fend off a particularly sympathetic attacker.] Nodon'teatme!

[She looks bewildered for a moment, then shakes her head at him emphatically, opening her hands a little to show he's free to go if he wants. Silly, she's not going to eat you!]

[Tim peeked out from between his arms to catch that emphatic head shaking, and very slowly he uncurled, standing up to start brushing himself off.] Um - sorry about that, it was instinct, I guess. You're so big. I mean, I'm so small. I mean - where's my hat?

[He flattened both hands against his head, and took on a dismayed look.] Did you step on it? It looks like an acorn!

[She lifts her feet very delicately, being careful to look before she puts them back down again. No crushed acorns - but then she spots what looks like a likely candidate for a fairy hat just beneath the branch he crashed into. She bends down to pick it up, then offers it to him on one fingertip. There we go, no harm done.]

You found it! [That might be the sound of Tim crowing, jumping up in the air, pumping both fists. LIFE IS AWESOME SHE FOUND IT. He takes the hat from her finger, flourishing a little bow before straightening and putting it on his head.] Thank you, my lady. I'm Tim. Who are you?

[She automatically tries to say 'I'm Sherene', but her mouth just makes the shapes without any sound coming out. Then she gives a dejected little frown. This is kind of sucking.]

Re: Spam

[peektuttut]

[Well that's curious and odd. Tim tilts his head to the side, hat coming dangerously close to falling off.] Can't you speak?

[She pouts a bit and shakes her head. Then attempts a mime: singing, then drawing her fingers away from her mouth as if pulling something out and giving it away.]

[Miming is extremely curious. Tim hovers, frowning as he tries to understand - he even flits in to take a look down her throat, just to make sure nothing was stuck. Once he was satisfied, he backed off.] You lost your voice? No - was it taken?

Re: Spam

[gotgreenmagic]

[She shakes her head when he starts talking, then nods vigorously at the second suggestion - then another mime, doing a sort of bent-over old hag sort of thing with wiggly fingers to suggest witchcraft.]

A witch! An old witch? I love charades! [Tim grinned - then realized this probably wasn't very funny for her, and sobered.] Why did she do that?

[He is not the first person to ask this, and it's a difficult thing to explain when you are both mute and illiterate. However, there are other ways. She digs around in a pocket for a folded piece of parchment, unfolds it and holds it up for him.]

[Oh. Hm. Tim's flying in close to examine the pictures, flitting from panel to panel.] You used to be green? Oh...your prince broke your heart. [Tiny fairy DDDDDDD: face. HE FEELS FOR YOU, SHERENE.]

That's awful! Can I do something? I'll find the witch, and - and-- [...throw fairy dust balls at her. or something.]

Re: Spam

[gotgreenmagic]

[She shakes her head. How to explain. She taps 'surprised, mute Sherene' and indicates herself, then taps the last two panels and makes a sort of 'forward' gesture, trying to indicate that these are two possibilities for the future and not something that has actually happened yet.]

Re: Spam

[peektuttut]

This is getting complicate, [he mutters to himself, pushing at his acorn to scratch his head.] Push? Shove? Should I shove the witch? Wait...[He flits back down to study the last two panels.] Oh! [And then h flies a loop de loop before hovering very close in front of her face.] They haven't happened yet! There's still time!
