"Why are you green?"

Piccolo was flabbergasted at the child's words. He had been minding his own business meditating only to be interrupted by a child. The child's power level was so minuscule that Piccolo had not noticed their approach. The interaction left him reeling, never had he had someone ask him such a question.

"That is a rude thing to ask, kid," Piccolo sneered, hoping to get the child to run away if he acted mean enough.

"Oh sorry." Piccolo was once again left gobsmacked. This child was throwing him for a loop; nothing like the children he was used to dealing with.

"Why are you out so far into the forest kid? Won't your parents worry?"

The child's face screwed up, "Why on Earth would my parents worry?" Piccolo balked at the words of the human child.

"Surely someone is going to worry about your well-being," Piccolo prompted. The child's only response was a shake of their head. Piccolo's eyes narrowed at the thought of such neglectful parenting.

"Well, why are you out here mister?" The child asked edging closer to the boulder Piccolo was perched upon.

"I am meditating."

"Oh—what's that," They asked slowly.

"It is when you close your eyes and be silent."

"I'm very good at that, mommy tells me to do that all the time."

A/n: Lol sorry it's so short, I wrote this a long time ago and decided I didn't want it in my drafts anymore. FYI Piccolo adopts the kid after this interaction.
