Ralph: You better hope not kid
Carine: Poor thing! I'll help you find your parents, ok? Come with me!
Noemie: Who said that? Looks around until child speaks again Oh hello little man, I am not your mama, but I can try to help you look for them.
Benoit: Tears up I can help you find your dad. Where did you last see him? Internally thinks I hope he is not dead I hope he is not dead
Nora: You shouldn't be wandering around like this, do you know how much your mama is worried about you right now? You need to stay with me now, I'll help you find them. Don't you dare wander off. And for pete's sake use this tissue, your skin will rash if you keep crying like that.
Lora: Aww what a cute little kid. Sorry I'm not your mama, hope you find her soon, good luck!
Myles: looks around awkwardly for parents I'm not your daddy sorry…Are you lost? You can stay with me while you look for him if you want; I don't mind.
Estel: You are always getting lost Marino! You should really know your way around by now. Oh, do you want a piece of candy, I bought these ten minutes ago and they are surprisingly really good. I like your sweater by the way. Monkeys are so cute.
Ayo: Wonders why this kid has come into his lonely hospital room No?
Shaan: Marino? What are you doing out so late? You'll be missing supper. I know your mama is a good cook, are you feeling ok?

You can guess which one is an actual parent in the story

Tsuki: Oh my gosh- you're so precious

pip: dude, no. what the hell. where are your parents? actually, fuck it, have you ever played poker?
michael: okay, come on, let's find your parents. i bet they're worried sick
harry: (idk how he would react, but if the child is stupid enough to go up to him, whatever happens is on them)

For Siirawyn, this question has multiple answers depending on what stage of life Siirawyn is in. For this, I’ll just do the major arcs of his life.

21 year old Siirawyn worriedly glances at the child almost immediately, checking around for possible parents. After a moment, he says, “Uhm..No? Where are they?” He tries to work together with the child to find their parent(s).

33-40 year old Siirawyn (and maybe a bit before 33) is likely to silently look to the child, with no worry visible on his face. If anything, he appears mildly annoyed, although the expression is only visible in his eyes. “It’s not safe out here,” he would say in a neutral tone, “for a child. There are bad people, very bad people. I don’t know where your parents are, so I suggest you run along now, yeah?” He otherwise goes to ignore the child, not reacting to whatever they do.

40+ year old Siirawyn to 1294 years does literally nothing. Why would a child go up to a tree and ask if it’s their parent?

1294 year old Siirawyn and beyond might produce a rumble/growl as he slowly looks down to the child. “I’ve no blood-kin, child. And I haven’t adopted either. It’s not a place for you to be, child. Leave.” Although he’s not extremely kind in tone, he’s not rude either - but clearly intends for the child to run along. Similar to the second response, he makes no attempts to help the child aside from maybe protecting them and distantly following at least until they leave his sanctum.

Zara: Calls Daisy if Daisy is nearby. Otherwise just stares. Mentally: small child small child small child what do I do I am not prepared for this-
Daisy: I'm not, sorry. Where did you last see your parents? I'll help you find them.
Niara: Not that I am aware of, why do you ask?
Phoenix: Why would you think that? Is this some kind of joke? (She has no idea how children work either)

Layali: stares blankly Uhm..no…. but as ruler of this country I should probably help you find them.. slowly picks up child

Wolfie: Oh my goodness are you lost? C'mere I'll help you find em.

Wrench: whistles and keeps walking because that responsibility is simply too large

Jacob: Uh, no. But where did you last seem em, sweetheart?

Phoebe: Omg.. MACY THERE'S A LOST CHILD!

Macy: WHERE? GIVES TO MEE WE MUST FIND THE PARENTS! Cue montage of the two chaotically asking random adults in the streets if they've lost their child

Barron: Ah, no as far as I'm aware I don't have a child… sooo who do you belong to? Looks around blankly and decides to buy the kid an icecream and ask around until he finds the parents

Janus: (eyes go round; stares at child for a minute in panic) N-n-no… (looks around frantically for one of the others to help)

Kage: (burst of nervous laughter) I'm a little concerned by the fact that I look even remotely like your father.

Annie: (very confused) No? (thinking) Your mother must have some wild-looking hair if you think I'm her.

Flash: (stares down at tiny human) I'm literally a winged horse, what the heck?

Kamau: pats child on head and sits with them til the parents return

titus: he wouldn't even say anything, he'd just spook the kid because he's a ghost and make them run away crying (on purpose).

cyrille: "obviously not, but i can help you find them. follow me." she would not let the kid within two feet of her though.

wade: "uhhhhh…… no?" he has absolutely no experience with children and no idea what to do

annie: "aw, hi little one. i'm not, but we can go find them. do you know where you last saw them?" she would take the kid's hand and search FOREVER to find them, and if they don't have parents she would take them in.

manta: "i appreciate it, but no." they don't mean to be rude they've just never encountered a lost child before.

skelley: "nuh uh bud." they would redirect the kid to annie.

ian: "no? where are your parents???" not really worried about the kid, but about being left alone.

tex: "nope. they're probably dead." he would probably drop the kid off at a police station so they could deal with it.

rooney: "HELL no! where here did you get that idea?? scram, kid." he would then get VERY attached.

odessa: "ermmm… no." she would bring the child to wade to ask what to do with them and they'd both be confused.

benny: "no, but i could totally be a cool brother! what do you wanna do first?" tex would eventually tell him to let the kid go but he would never.

salem: "oh my god! no, i'm not, where are your parents, what are you doing here-" she would get so scared for the kid and not know what to do. she'd freak out but eventually figure out who the parents are.
