Description
Inspired by a short little conversation I had with ANOMALY--13

The Kid with the Flower Crown is a chaotic and unpredictable anomalous entity. If approached, there is a correct way to handle an interaction with the Kid. A mostly correct way, that is. Even if one follows all the rules, the Kid can still decide to attack you. This is because the Kid can see your soul, and judges you. One may be able to escape their Judgement even with a “dirty” soul if one follows all the directions.

- if approached directly, face the kid and be polite. Squatting down to be level with the Kid is seen as condescending and will irritate them; permission is necessary to do this and avoid irritation.

- There are occasions where people have been surprised by the Kid, because such people did not notice them approaching. In this case, the Kid will likely appear, gently tugging on a sleeve or other article of clothing. DO NOT IGNORE THEM. This will irritate them. If they tug on your sleeve, face them and ask them if they need anything.

- They can read your lips, no matter what language you speak. Be kind and respectful with your words.

- Do NOT talk down to them. This is taken as condescending. Although they cannot hear you, the Kid can read body language very well, as well as read your lips.

- If the Kid offers you a flower, you MUST take it to avoid irritating them. This goes for any other gift the Kid may offer you.

- If the Kid approaches you while you are sitting, offer them a seat next to you, if possible. If there are no other seats, either offer them your seat, or stand up. They will likely decline the offer, but if you don’t offer them a seat or stand up, this will not irritate them badly, but it will irritate them slightly. There is also the possibility that the Kid will not care. One can’t really tell, unfortunately, so it’s best to do this to be safe.

- the Kid seems to like to sing. Asking them to stop will probably irritate them, unless you happen to have a very good reason that isn’t made up just because their singing annoys you. You can ask to join them in singing if you happen to know the song. Try to harmonize.

- sometimes the Kid will approach as if they have some mundane problem, like a normal child. Usually they can’t find something, or they can’t find their parents. In such cases, it’s wise to assist the Kid as best as you can. If you are able to fulfill whatever helpfulness quota the Kid has for one to fill, they will reward you with a flower crown.

- If the Kid wishes to give you a Flower crown, you must accept this, and immediately put it on your head. In special cases, the Kid will alternatively gift one with a flower bracelet, necklace, a bunch of flowers, or a single flower. All gifts, excluding the bunch of flowers, are meant to be worn. Allow the Kid to put their gift on you if they wish to.

If one angers the Kid too much, then the Kid will likely become angry and violent, either crying, storming about, throwing things, or screaming, as if they are throwing a tantrum. If one happens to “hurt their feelings,” by either disrespecting them or throwing away their gift, they will start to cry. If the Kid is upset by one’s actions, this places one in grave danger. Do everything possible to alleviate the situation and amend one’s mistakes, in the faint, faint hope that the Kid does not kill one and turn their body into flowers.

Fun (?) Facts!

- no one knows if the Kid actually has feet
- they seem to enjoy braiding long hair
- seems to be almost entirely deaf; however, their deafness seems to be oddly selective…
- deafness is possibly an effect of their vitiligo, as vitiligo in humans is known to cause hearing problems
- the flower crowns they give people seem to last an unusually long time, with the flowers staying healthy and green for up to/at least five years… at least, according to the earliest records of the anomaly—the oldest intact flower crown is five years and six months old and three days old (and counting) and is finally beginning to show some signs of deterioration

- they like to sing. The way they talk indicates that their hearing was lost over time. Unless they were born deaf, because who knows? It’s not like there’s any real records of a kid exactly like this Kid that existed once.

- All DNA samples obtained from the Kid seem to point to floral origin, rather than any animal or human origin. Strange.

- they like stopping to smell the roses. The daisies and poppies, too!

- many of the flowers in the Kid’s flower gifts are undocumented species, and have no records of ever existing anywhere else on Earth
- the Kid has been seen wearing a skirt, or shorts, and sometimes both! In this sketch, they were wearing a skirt and some sort of stretchy pants. Probably for the cold weather.

- the Kid always appears wearing a worn green shirt with a faded flower on the front.

- about half of the time, the Kid’s eyes seem to be entirely sclera. the other half of the time the Kid appears with a pupil or iris. If they do have a pupil and/or iris, they normally appear to be varying shades of green, rarely appearing with colors similar to the colors of a flower’s petals.

-it’s been determined that the Kid generally appears with white eyes to those who have a curious soul. To those who are less curious and inquisitive about the world, the Kid appears more mundane and normal (ie with a pupil and/or iris, like normal-ish humans)

- sometimes the Kid will have a single flower in their hair, a bracelet or necklace of flowers, or, the most rare, be seen holding a small bouquet of what appear to be wildflowers. In these cases, the person they appeared to was gifted these bouquets or bunches of flowers. These bouquets never wilt. (Oldest known bouquet gifted by the Kid is approximately seventeen years eight months and two weeks old, bound by a ribbon of strange, soft petal-like material)

- the Kid likes appearing to other kids, especially those who appear to be younger than itself (although the Kid can appear as different ages). It seems to want to make friends—rarely, or almost never does the Kid attack other young kids.

- The Kid is actually a good character to watch over your children. The Kid has been known to protect children from other anomalies. This has only happened eight times in recorded history of this anomaly.

- the recorded history of this anomaly only stretches back about twenty years. It’s relatively new anomaly, although similar anomalies like the Kid have been recorded, such as a quiet red headed man who gave people flowers, or an adult woman with a birthmark on her face who wove flower chains for children. While the Kid themself hasn’t been around for very long, the essence of a somewhat chaotic humanoid anomaly who likes giving people a gift of flowers has existed for a very long time. Does this mean that the Kid has a family…?

Ask for more information by asking “Abysmie, what about (this)?” I will gladly put more information into the desc!
