Fields are a fairly normal seeming place, and kids doing 'weird' things in them isn't all that unusual either. This manages to pass the threshold of 'acceptable weird' all the way into 'what the actual fuck'. A young girl dressed entirely in white clothes that completely cover her body except for the face and neck is laying in the middle of a patch of dirt. There's what seems to be a breathing device on her face, but it doesn't seem like its connected to anything. An open notebook is next to the girl, filled in with seemingly random data. Lastly, just to add to the surreal image, there is a red ladybug shaped egg timer on her chest. This is definitely weird.

[Sabine's PL: 165] Kabucha's PL: 10 (Non-mechanical)] Yes, a peaceful field with nothing to speak of but plants and sunshine...Perfectly normal! So normal that the oddity laying in the dirt was almost balanced out. Almost. But it seems on a nice warm day like this, Vae wasn't the only one here! A certain saiyan mother had taken her son for a nice relaxing picnic. After all, things had been quiet for a few days now...She could afford to put work behind her. ... Maybe anyway. They quite enjoyed their peaceful lunch. It was a saiyan staple: Dinosaur meat sandwiches and roast dino! Although...The stress of work rather quickly caught up to Sabine. Sitting under a shady tree to rest inevitably led to her falling asleep into a calm, quiet nap.... And when mother is away, Son will play! Kabucha wandered off into the open fields, a toy plane in hand. As he wandered around it was an inevitable consequence that he would come across the exact patch of dirt Vae was lying in. Rather than reacting in confusion like most would, he was instead curious...This girl looked around his age even though unknown to him she was much older. ... More importantly she had a funny looking bug on her stomach. The albino saiyan boy slowly walked over, leaning over her as the sun shining on Vae would suddenly be blotted out."What's that..."Kabucha crouched down, and, with an extended hand reached for Vae's egg timer, about to poke it with a curious finger.

The egg timer is pushed to the side somewhat easily, rolling off of Vae's stomach and landing on the ground. Her eyes squint, and open sharply once she realizes that someone is there. She probably only had a bit of time before the other fae pulled their prank- Wait. Pause, rewind thoughts, the waker was not a fae. Not quite human either though? Felt different than most humans do, but also different than Elfen and Fae. An unknown variable! Wait speaking of variables. "Oh heck I'm going to need to stop the timer!"
Vae quickly grabs her notebook and writes several things in it, before turning to the timer as it starts to emit a small bell like chime. "... Huh. Guess the data point should be valid, but if it shows to be an outlier I can exclude it- Oh! Person! Hi sorry! I was doing science things and sometimes my thoughts get all wound up on each other like a ball of string and-"
She slaps her cheeks lightly. "Focus!" Social interaction with an as of yet unknown species! This might be bad, but it could also be groundbreaking! "... Wait what question did you ask?"

A small smile grows on the saiyan boy's face as he watches the "strange bug" lethargically roll off of the person underneath. It was...Easy to amuse him, to be quite honest."Cool bug."Were the simple few words he offered to the strange Fae. As she began to speak scientific babble that was so far beyond his understanding he simply tilted his head watching her. To him it was though she was speaking some unknown language."Out...Lier? Mama says it isn't good to lie."The boy calmly sat down as Vae overthought her introduction. Clearly her social awkwardness went straight over his head and so far into the stratosphere it is probably orbiting earth now. As she asked for him to clarify his question he simply repeated his words."Your cool bug. What is it...?"It seems whatever tension the scientist was dealing with was completely lost on him. Where-as Vae was wound tightly like a spring, Kabucha was simply content to speak to someone new.--- Vaelaria

Cool... bug? Oh! The ladybug themed timer! Further inspection of the species revealed that while the specimen was the size of a fully mature Fae, it was perhaps still considered young for its species? A momentous occurrence!
She focused back on the conversation, waiting for a pause. That was polite to do right? She wouldn't like it if someone interrupted her in the middle of asking a question, so she needed to wait for a pause to speak, like a question to be asked.
Vae adjusts her posture so she's sitting across from the presumed male juvenile. Alright, two kind of questions to answer, one explicitly not a question, but kind of sounded like one so she'd answer it anyways.
"Alright! Lets start... An outlier is a quick way to say 'a certain thing that lies outside the normal when compared to others'. Like.... If you had 20 eggs that were all shades of pink, and 1 blue one, the blue one would be an outlier!"
"The bug... isn't actually a bug! Its just painted to look like one! Its actually a timer. I can try to explain exactly how it works, but mechanical components aren't my specialty."
Oh! Right! Introductions! Most species gave their name to one another as a gesture of friendliness and goodwill! It was weird to her, but giving them part of a name should still extend the same courtesy? "I'm Vae! Its.... nice to seat you? Is that how it goes?"

The boy brought a finger to his chin as he listened to the science-minded Fae explain what an outlier is. For mlst people this explaination would be sufficient to understanding the word. For Kabucha, well..."Blue eggs are cool. I want a blue egg."... He WAS six years old after all. At least he seemed to understand what a timer was as he gave an expression of surprise when Vae explained that rather than being a giant bug, this thing was an egg timer."Mama uses one of those for cooking. She's bad with keeping up with time."And then came introductions! Upon introducing herself Kabucha gave a very heartwarming smile."Hi Vee! I'm Kabu!"... Mispronunciations aside it seems he was certainly pleasant to be around!--- Vaelaria

"I think this was a kitchen timer? I borrowed it for science purposes though!" Vae will hold the timer in both of her hands to show to the other better. "Hi Kabu! Its nice to meet you!" Vee sounded like a cute nickname. "I don't think I'm very good at this whole thing, but do you want to be friends?" Kabu seemed really nice! She can both investigate him and befriend him! Double win! She offers him a hand. Sabine

Oh, dear. One of these days, her work would be the death of her. Having to gather up all that evidence and continuing her work as usual on top of having to deal with those bastards who murdered her father, her training, and her studies. She hardly had any time to herself. She was sometimes convinced she would drive herself to insanity if she didn’t take a break! Which was why she was taking a break right now. Although technically still on duty, she doubted anyone would care if she took an hour or so to rest and recover her mind, slow down from all the madness of the city. Honestly, life in the tribe was so much simpler, no matter how worth it her new knowledge was. Tiring though it was, she didn’t have it in her to simply give up. She wondered whether that was a good thing. With a stretch, she silently groaned, feeling rather sore. She’d have to visit the masseuse soon, but for now, she just needed to get away from all the hustle-bustle of the city and into a more… relaxing area, away from people. Being from the forest originally, Iara needed no help in navigating in the field, even with her mind wandering the way it was. She was surprised, however, to smell the scent of people. Pausing to pinpoint it, she would make her way over to two children talking… or at least it seemed like two children? The girl seemed significantly more mature than a child would be. Not wanting to leave them alone out here, Iara would walk into the field, purposefully making her presence known wll in advance with another stretch before she casually sat down on a particularly soft patch of grass about three metres away from them. “You’ll forgive me for intruding, I happen to like this spot a fair bit.” Iara began with a small smile, “I do hope you enjoy my company, little ones. I’m Iara, by the way.” Vaelaria Sabine

Kabucha tilted his head in curiosity as he witnessed Vaelaria utter a...Strange word he had never once heard in his young life."Sigh-Ents?"... Close enough. That aside though, he seemed over the moon with joy when Vae asked if he wanted to be friends with her! He certainly liked meeting new people abd making friends, and this was no exception. He nodded his head rapidly!"Yes!!! We're friends now Vee!"The little saiyan grabbed hold of Vae's hand with both of his, squeezing down gently and giggling. It was...Heart meltingly adorable to say the least.His attention was quickly drawn away as a new person entered the scene. Iara stood as an almost imposing tower when compared to these two. Kabucha was hardly over three feet tall compared to the detective's massive 6 foot frame. But...He wasn't intimidated. It was clear from her tone that in this parricular case she was a gentle giant. Kabucha simply gave her a wave and a smile."H'lo big lady!"He was...Certainly blunt in describing people. But he meant no harm. Six year ds were simply brutally honest that way."Hi Lara, I'm Kabu! This is my friend Vee! She's doing a sigh-ents!"He mispronounced both of their names in short order...But english wasn't exactly his first language either so it could likely be forgiven. He grinned big as he watched the "Big lady" rest on the soft grass."Do you wanna do a sigh-ents too?!" Vaelaria Iara

To Iara, Vae would smell rather odd. There was a natural scent of flowers and pine around her, but she also smelled heavily of metal and chemicals.
"Yeah! Science! Its a big word that basically means 'trying to learn what you can'. Its one of my favorite-" Her hands were grabbed, and they were friends now! Yay!
Though, who was the big lady that came here? She felt strong to Vae, but seemed like a nice lady! She decided to wave to them as well, smiling. She was still holding onto her friend's hand. She hadn't had friends 'her maturity level' in a long time? But this was definitely nice!
"Its nice to meet you Miss Iara!" She tries to exaggerate her name to get used to the sound of it in her mouth. So Iara's name comes out sounding like 'EE-Ar-A'.
Though, something Kabu said caught her attention. "Kabu, you want to do science with me?!?" She looks excited, practically bouncing on her heels.

Iara wasn’t what one would call a soft-hearted individual. Her facial expressions had a subtlety to them that made it harder than usual to catch her doing any intense emoting, and her heart had long since moved past the point of awing at things. But that didn’t mean she didn’t find the scene before her absolutely adorable. Seeing the two little ones get along, she couldn’t help but smile. How endearing. Her eyes lost their naturally harsh edge as they softened, Iara subconsciously relaxing. Perhaps looking after the two kids would help her get her mind off things. Iara looked a touch confused as Kabu asked her if she wanted to do, erm… sigh-ents? The odd-smelling girl clarified what he meant with what she said next, and from the way she smelled, it seemed she dealt with science a lot. Maybe a child savant? Either way, she supposed there was no harm in playing along for now. “Sure, we could do science, little one.” She smiled at Kabu before looking at Vae, “What sort of science are we doing, if you don’t mind my asking?” Vaelaria Sabine

"Learning what you can...? I like learning!"He was certainly enthusiastic if nothing else. Sure he was leagues less mature and intelligent than Vae, but the pair seemed to make excellent friends none the less! Her excitement over him wanting to get involved prompted a sweet smile from the boy as he would give Vae a sunny nod of agreement."Yes! I'd like to! What do we gotta do to learn stuff?"Iara agreeing to join in only made Kabu happier. The trio would learn...Things together! What kind of things? The saiyan lad had absolutely NO idea, he was content to simply play along, as it was all the same kind of fun to him either way. He noticed just how gentle Iara seemed to be. To her it might have been odd, but to him it was the only way he had seen her in the few short moments they had known each other."Lara you can do the big stuff since you're taller! You're as big as Mama!"With a toothy smile it was made clear that Kabucha already showed amazement towards the detective's towering stature. It wasn't so much that he hadn't seen someone so tall...Rather, Earth women tended to be much smaller than that typically, so perhaps he associated some respect with it. Either way...He was nothing if not a purehearted child. His compliments could make one feel much better from how much genuine feeling was put into them. Vaelaria Iara

At the prospect of others joining her for science, Vae looks pretty overwhelmed. "... Ack!!! I have no idea! The only thing I was really planning on today was to see if any photosynthesis was occurring by measuring oxygen levels in my exhale... Checking blood sugar levels might actually be a good way to see that as well in the future."
Vae pulls out a notebook and starts to write in it. If either Iara or Kabu looked into it, its... definitely not the Arabic alphabet, or Japanese, or... pretty much almost anything recognizable? It almost seems to be a series of circle based symbols with small details to them, Vae muttering what she was apparently writing in it out loud.
"... Future test study for Titan tree DNA Epigenetic factors present in Fae biology..." The other words were kind of hard to make out, partially because they were muttered, and partially because they were incredibly complex science terms.
"... Wait this still doesn't help with the question of what science experiments to preform!!!" She looks up abruptly, startled by this 'revalation'
