Sookie came happily bounding up to him. Unaware she had put him on alert. She was excited to finally have a way to not hear the thoughts of others and that excited her.
"Hello, Mr. Duck," she said, talking faster because she was excited. "Mr. Duck, someone told me (now that wasn't quite right. She'd overheard someone thinking about him. Is was a little white lie.) you were the person to talk about the forest."
The moment she said forest, his brain started silently sharing what he was thinking with Sookie. "The forest will be fine. Don't worry about any strange diseases, there are none."
Giving him her best smile as he was easy on the eyes. It didn't even occur to her that might not be the right thing to say to someone who didn't know about her powers.
"Mr. Duck, I'm Sookie Stackhouse and I wanted to talk to you about the forest."
