Elm: No...all of the spirits in these trees are LONG dead...it wouldn't make much of a difference.
"...did...you hurt them sir..?"
He stared at Elm, fiddling with his hair.
Elm: I-I...It was...
He hugs himself, shaking a little. It's clear that this brings up BAD memories for him
"It's okay if you did...I wouldn't be mad...or upset..I-I just..wanna know.."
Elm: ...
He nods a little
"Oh...do you need a h-hug..?"
Elm: Um...N-no, that's fine...
He sighs and grins Elm: ...Let's start over-I'm Elm, it's nice to meet ya!
"Uhm...Ha...Hazel..."
He nervously looked down at his circle of grass and flowers
Elm: Hazel? Then are you a Hazel tree? That's cool!
"..."
His cheeks because rosy with blush as he smiled.
"Y-Yeah.."
