Question about getting new key caps

So, about a week ago (or less, feels like it's been a week, though), the key cap on my "z" key broke off entirely. The main face was worn down because I use zx for Osu, but I didn't think I had been hitting it hard enough to break it. Shows what I know.

Anyways, I can provide pictures if necessary, but what would be the best option for me as far as getting a new z cap so I can actually use the button well. I use a laptop keyboard that I'm pretty sure isn't some kind of connected membrane keyboard at least. Each of the keys has a small maybe 1/8" gap in between each of them, so I would think that I could get individual letters. I also hope that I can get just the "z" key, but I can stomach having to buy a bag of every single key if I have to (provided it's not that expensive).

Pointers to where I can get them (either from the laptop's brand store or from some generic place be it Amazon, Ebay, etc.) would be nice, as well.

I think one of your best bets is going to your laptop manufacturer's site, and seeing if they offer spare parts.

Chances of third-party sellers offering replacement laptop keycaps are really low due to how different the mounting can be from multiple models and multiple manufacturers.

What laptop do you have?

I know it's from HP, though beyond that I don't remember.

EDIT: I honestly don't think I still have the box it came in either.
