Aximili?

So you got tiny too.

[He has always been-- he is not tiny! This is the size he is. As much as someone with no mouth can pout, Ax does.]

Basically... you got transported to the future and I know your older self.

< That does not make sense. >

[Still pouting, but only for a moment. He's too curious to keep it up.]

< What am I like? >

Does this place look like your home world?

You're a smart kid and a good warrior.

< I am? >

[This definitely counts as important, and Ax beams in that way Andalites do, with their eyes.]

< But how did I get here? >

At least as long as I've known you. Though, you're usually in a human-looking morph.

I have no idea how you got here. Maybe a spell.

[such a cute fuzzy kiddo...]

< Human morph? >

[That is such a strange idea, Ax is baffled into speechlessness for a moment. He has heard of humans, of course, but he has not interacted with them, and he is too young to morph.]

< Are you a human? >

[The question of spells can wait.]

I'm not all human, but that's what I look like, yes. I'll explain it to you when you're older, kiddo.

[Ax frowns a little with his eyes. This is a thing his parents say to him when they do not want to tell him things.]

< I'm not a baby! >

No, you're not a baby. But, you're still very young. I don't want to tell you scary things.

< I am not afraid, either.

What are you, if not all human? >

I'm magic.

And I know where the most delicious grass is.

< There is no such thing as magic. >

[Ax feels this is the grown-up thing to say, even though he secretly still believes in the stories his parents have told him, about other worlds and beings that can play with space and time.]

< But if you can tell me where delicious grass is, I might decide to believe you. >

There is. How else would you be here?

If you leave the park and head towards that huge imposing archway door thing? There's delicious grass all around it.

[has indeed transformed the splotchy grass around it into a field of wildflowers and sweet grasses]

< Have you tasted it? >

[Ax is grinning with his eyes as he canters toward the gate.

No one has ever told him not to take sweet grass from strangers, and it has not occurred to him that humans, or human-like beings, do not eat grass.]

< Magic is for stories for little kids. >

[But there is a part of him that would still like to believe, and would do so, if confronted with the smallest amount of proof.]
