How would pixie to human two way communication work?

+0
−0

Pixie, no bigger than a tennis ball, has coexisted along side human for as long as history can remember, note that the pixie were never treated as pet, however slavery and smuggling activities are on the rise making these pixie highly sought after in the developed countries.

Suppose the pixie is as intelligent as an average 5yo healthy child, how can we communicate with the pixie effectively without resorting to technology?

Even if they could speak with their tiny vocal cords, all we would hear is just a sharp, high pitched screeching, let alone showing us their middle digit just a few meters away.

Maybe the Pixies could write on a piece of paper.

For them it would be a big painting and for humans it would be a tiny note, but we would be able to read it. This kind of communication might take a while and it might not always be easy to understand the Pixies, as five-year-olds might struggle to properly express themselves in a written communication.
