Fae hadn't been around long, but she was at least figuring herself out fast. Her feet were much more coordinated than they had been when she first emerged, and she didn't knock herself over with her own wings as often. Words were still mostly just sounds to her ears, but she didn't seem to mind so much. As long as they sounded nice, she repeated and remembered them.
she walked from glowing moss to glowing crystal, testing each one with her beak to see if any of them felt or tasted good. One particularly bright crystal caught her attention and she started rubbing her beak against it. The sound was a weird one, but she liked it enough to keep on scraping for a moment or two.
Once that little game was over, she glanced around the room, hoping some other gembound would be nearby. Surely enough, another feathered one was perched on a rock nearby. "Hey there!" She excitely called out, repeating words she had heard earlier "Red! Red!" She added at the end.

Name. That word came up again. She had heard it earlier and the meaning finally seemed to click into place. She paused for a long moment and tilted her head in concentration. "Fae... Faerie" She said. "Fae!" She said again, proud of herself for saying something outside of the words she had been told. "Name Faerie!" She squawked then stopped and thought about everything else she had heard.
"Name Giga?" She asked, testing out her new understanding of the word that had been bouncing around in her head for awhile. The other words still didn't make sense, but at least she was figuring out that words were more than just fun sounds to be repeated and paraded about.
