Hymn was perched at the edge of the stream, listening to the sounds around them. At a distance, they looked like some strange white blob with the colors of pastel pink, blue, and purple thrown in. Once you approached, however, you'll realize that the blob is actually something even stranger. An oversized otter with thick wool and a fluffy cat tail. And to top this all off, he had pigeon wings. It was very clear he was more than a hybrid of two things. He was... a lot. In more than just appearance.

Their vicuna ear took in the gurgling of the river while their cat ear swiveled to take in the more minute sounds around them. He was unusually quiet, mainly because he was picking up inspiration before he could turn it into his own music. When that happened, he was rather unapologetically loud.

To Samael, being only six inches tall in height, everything was technically oversized in comparison. Yet, he did not view the world this way. In his opinion, the world was perfectly itself. The size of something did not determine its wondrousness.

Wishing the world to change would be unthinkable to Samael. Every aspect he encountered was to be adored, in its own way.

The world was poetry in motion, though poetry was a notion he had only discovered recently for all that he loved poetic wordings. He wished to try his hand at composing poetry, though he was not sure how to start. There was a rhythm to it, in a way that general speech did not have.

His gaze landed on another gembound and he drifted from the sky closer to land but not close enough to be in reach. Samael was curious, not incautious. "Hello there," He greeted, voice smooth and projecting louder than one would expect from such a tiny being.

Assessing, he scanned the gembound, with their swiveling ear, and then he gave a sharp grin. It was not a harsh sharpness, simply a smile that did not bother to hide teeth. Delight at the possibility that had occurred to him.

"Are you listening?" He asked, sounding as delighted as he felt which was very much so.

@Hymn

"Ah! Is that a fellow gembound I see?" This was a rhetorical question, but it wouldn't have been a surprise if it wasn't. Samael really was rather small. But he did not know of any lessers that spoke, so the only reasonable assumption was that the being really was a gembound and not a bug. "I am indeed listening. Listening is very important! Important for creation! For music! Do you know of music?" Hymn waved his tail from side to side, the air blowing through his emerald gemstone making a soft c note.
