Of all the freaking...
So... Exploration. Dream come true for a guy like Kouta right? Right! Going out and doing whatever he felt like was basically the best thing he could think of. So why was he so completely miserable right now? It probably had something to do with the fact that in the list of things he had; A map was actually not one of the things included. After all, when you were trying to explore, why bother take a map right? That would just ruin the adventure! Being lost is half of the fun!
Huge mistake.
Being lost and finding new things was fun. Being lost in some marsh in the middle of nowhere with no idea how to get out? Not so much. Especially when you were like three inches tall. Most of the large actually dangerous creatures in the swamp simply ignored him due to his small size, but just because he wasn't necessarily in danger didn't mean he wasn't bored out of his mind. And frustrated, can't ever forget the frustration part. He bounded angrily across the ground at an astonishing speed for one his size, with almost comical anger emanating from him.
"Stupid fricking swamps with their stupid fricking marshes..."
He bounded over a particular large log- Which to most was barely the size of their foot- as he moved forward, his frustration only increasing as he moved. Trees. Planets. Trees. More planets. More trees. Green, green, green, everywhere he looked. God this marsh sucked. He was so pre-occupied with his own grumbling that he barely even noticed as one particular hop sent him careening through the air right into the side of a tree, several feet above the ground. Letting out a yelp of surprise right before impact, he hit the bark with a soft thud, practically inaudible due to his small size.
He sat there, face first into a tree and hating his life, before his anger reached a boiling point.
"FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THREE GODESSESS HOW DOES ONE GET OUT OF THIS STUPID SWAMP!?"
Layne wasn't sure why he was in the swamp. A random urge maybe? Most likely, it was just boredom. Yeah, those stupid Deku things where a little protective of the swamp, but as long as you stayed away from their castle, they tend to leave you alone. Honestly, Layne liked the swamp. Well, as long as he had his ear muffs on so he wouldn't have to hear any of the annoying animals lurking around.
Lysander, Layne's orange loftwing. Was flying high above the swamp, looking down on Layne making sure he was okay. Not, that he couldn't take care of himself. Lysander was just protective like that. As he should be of his master. Layne wasn't sure what to do now that he was here. Maybe he'd be childish and mess with a dumb animal.
Layne shrugged, seeing a bird fly by. bending down to pick up a rock, he noticed.. a thing. Like a little thing. It looked angry Layne squinted, trying to see what it was. Picking it up he looked at it. Yes, it was a alive. Almost like a little bug.

So taken in his pint-sized rage was Kouta that he didn't even notice the large hand coming to scoop him off the ground until he was already being held several feet up in the air.
"Hey- What the-"
Spinning around, he turned to face his would be attacker. He drew his sword- Which would look like little more than a toothpick at the moment to the larger boy- jabbing it angrily into the air as he used it to point at the boys face. He sputtered incoherently as he stared the other male down, trying to recover from his disorientiation at being scooped off the ground without notice.
"Wha-What do you mean 'What Am I?'- Ain't you ever seen a Minish before!?"
Kouta bounded angrily in the other males hand, leaping several inches into the air with each bounce, but making sure he still landed in the safety of the larger beings palm. He had no desire to go careening into the ground as he was- Not that he wouldn't survive, but he would probably just end up being scooped up again anyway. That or he'd just end up alone in the middle of a swamp again, without any idea as to how to get out, but that wasn't exactly at the forefront of his mind at the moment.
"What do you think you're doin, just coming over here and scooping me up like some kind of rodent!?"
Layne looked at the small bug, he wasn't expecting a response. Wow, it was actually an intelligent animal. He used the word lightly as talking tended to not to be a sign of intelligence. But it was able of communication. Course, the only reason Layne could tell was he seemed angry at his question and jumping up and down. Not just crawling around his hand and escaping.
"Sorry, I can't understand you." Layne said. "I'm deaf, and can only read lips, and you're to small to tell." He mentioned, looking at the little thing a bit longer. Wow, how interesting he was just like a little human. If Layne wasn't himself he'd almost call the little guy cute.
Layne tried to remember learning about such a race from his studies, and he could recall some tales about something like that. But he didn't even remember the name. He recalled them being considered fairy tales. Well, guess they weren't really huh? He thought looking at the small man again. "Can you grow bigger somehow or something?" Layne asked, wanting to know more.

"I'm deaf, and can only read lips, and you're to small to tell."
"Deaf- You're freaking deaf?"
Kouta sputtered indignantly, still fuming at the larger figure. Under normal circumstances he would have felt more than a little bad for the guy's handicap, but temper tantrums have a way of throwing off one's compassion. He bounded more on the larger boys arm, his sputtering and shouting coming to a stop as he realized it was fruitless; The other lad actually couldn't hear him. And these large-types never could see the small folk well.
Kouta's bounding ceased as his hand came up to rub his forehead, as if he was the one being inconvenienced by the other males disability. He let out a little, inaudible sigh before he heard the other male continue.
"Can you grow bigger somehow or something?"
Kouta mutterd inaudibly to himself once more as he mulled it over. While yes, he technically could get bigger, he viewed turning into "big-people" size as cumbersome more than anything. In human terms, it was the equivalent of turning into the size of a skyscraper; Which might sound cool sometimes, until you realize how limiting it is compared to being tiny. It's like being unable to walk back into your own city without crushing something, let alone your own house or yard. Still though, he needed to communicate with the boy somehow.
He lept from the boys hand into the air, magic coursing through him as he did so. His form shook and grew, rapidly increasing in size until he was fully grown by the time he landed. Though "fully grown" in this case still only brought him up to about four, maybe five feet tall; Still much shorter than most people considered normal.
"I said, why the hell are ya scooping me up off the ground like some kind of insect!?"
