This can be attacking you, giving you an item, disappearing, giving you their egg (this is the one you want!) or agreeing not to attack you anymore (which is kind of pointless if you weren't already attacking them). And you needn't attack an enemy in order to get one of these results.As for the talk-three-times rule, I don't think it's hardcoded in. I think everyone just does the quest at the same level and with similar skills. For example, on tougher enemies, I've noticed that I have to talk to them a lot more in order to get a reaction. Furthermore, my friend who has trained the "talk" skill doesn't have to talk to them as many times as I do, and gets a positive reaction much more frequently.If you give the pixie to Snakeman so he can rip its whole wing off, you still get the item it was holding anyway. No worries.Also, the alignment shifts you can have in the first chapter are insignificant. You don't start getting significant alignment changes until well after you get your DB license.

That way, you keep the pixie (I suppose they kill it if you give it to them?) but you still fulfill your mission. The pixie seemed happy and gave me a gift after that. @Chow, when I was doing that mission, Snake asked if I wanted to give over the pixie or just the scales, and I chose scales.
