#absolomon

Sol emerged from his tent, which he was sure to set in almost the exact spot he had last time. He tried to put his things up quickly and quietly, to keep his presence a surprise. He was unsure if he would see the strange, tree girl that had been plaguing his thoughts over the past few months, but he was hopeful. It had been a long season, waiting and aching to get out there in the woods again, to look at all the herbs and plants and flowers. He loved spring, it was his favorite season of all~

Sel smiled when she saw him and the flowers that adorned her head bloomed bigger and brighter. She was glad he came. The winter was lonely without him. She crouched down tightly before landing into the soft grass of the clearing. She had hoped her landing wasn't too loud. She wanted to surprise him, it was always so much fun.

He looked around his campsite, quite proud that he got it all done so quickly. Sol walked around his tent once, double checking that it was all secure, which they were. After everything was checked over for this second or even third time, he sat himself down in his camping chair and sighed, relaxing for just a moment. “I wonder where she is right now…” He thought aloud. She could be a sneaky little thing at times, always curious and ready to pounce when she wanted something. Suddenly the events of last year’s camping trip came to mind, and he flushed at such thoughts. Then he began to worry, to wonder. He didn’t get her… pregnant… did he…? He tried to imagine his beautiful tree woman then, left alone in the woods. He wasn’t sure if she’d be able to take care of a human child, if it would even be one. Maybe it would be a strange hybrid, a mix of both their species… Sol blinked, then shook his head. That was ridiculous, and highly unlikely. He was just being silly, that’s all. He stared off with a goofy smile on, unaware of her presence. It wouldn’t be long until he saw her again, would it? 

Sel grinned. Good, he hadn't heard her she didn't think. She coiled her body up and leapt at him and cling to him with her arms and legs. "Sol! I have missed you!" She nuzzles her face into his shirt. "It was a long summer but look!" She held out part of the leaves that made up her hair. "New leaves!" She moved a hand to run through his hair. "Your leaves look the same though. Are you an evergreen?"

With a gasp and a cry of surprise, Sol flailed some, and tipped his chair back, taking the tree-girl with him. He stared wide-eyed up at her, surprised by her sudden leaping, which he should have expected. He couldn’t help but grin, she was still the same her! He then chuckled quietly, and tried to stay carefully still with her on top of him. “S-Sel…!” he chuckled again, and smiles at her. “I see, I see!~ I’m happy for you!~” She was still as pretty as always, with her large eyes and her willow hair, he brushed a hand along it, feeling the fresh green leaves before blinking at her question, then shaking his head. “It’s hair? Human hair doesn’t really change colors much, unless we change it ourselves, or we get really old and it all turns grey.”

Sel giggled when she fell and only clung tighter to him. Her flowers bloomed when he ran a hand through her leaves and she beamed. He thought she was pretty, beautiful even. Sel didn't know what human girls really looked like but to her Absolomon was very handsome which must mean that all the human girls flocked to him to mate. Sol told her otherwise, but Sel doubted he was telling the truth. She tilted her head. "Hair? Did you lose it in the autumn?" She played with the hair. It is very soft."
