[ to be honest, suddenly appearing in the middle of some weird new planet is approaching "completely normal" at this point in his life. And so, other than being surprised at not seeing any sort of glowing portal, flying demigod, or angry robot to blame for all of this, Sonic is coping with all of this fairly well. Doesn't hurt that he's in the woods - he finds them pretty calming, actually. Sooner or later, he's certain someone is gonna show up and explain what's going on to him, because that's how it always goes. Rather than darting off, he takes a few seconds to poke and prod at his new jewelry (sorry for the feedback), then links his hands behind his head, taking a leisurely stroll through the woods and enjoying the scenery.

For like, three minutes, because he's a trouble magnet. ]


Woah! Hey there, mom! You've gotta have your hooves full with all those little guys. [ he is not frightened by the sight of the mother boar and her cute little piglets, if his easygoing tone is anything to go by. ] I'm just passing through, so no worries, okay?

[ predictably, the big, antsy animal is less than interested in his peace offering, and starts looking like she's going to charge. Which is fine, too. Sonic just sighs, then gives her a casual salute before sprinting off between the trees at the speed of sound...

... Except he doesn't, because his powers are gone, and he finds himself feeling like he's running through molasses as he just barely keeps abreast of this giant pig. ]


Huh? Hey!! What the -- yikes!

[ a quick jump gets him just barely out of the way of her tusks - but now he's hanging from a tree branch, dangling rather helplessly while the mother boar looks to be preparing to charge the whole tree.

Help. ]

[ Much, much later, when he's survived his ordeal, Sonic eventually arrives at the camp, looking... very put-out, actually. He can't go fast no more. What does his life even mean now?!

What I'm saying is that he's currently laying on his back - yes, on the ground - like a melodramatic toddler, heaving a heavy sigh as he holds up the bag of cooked shrimp in front of his face. ]


Man... Talk about the worst trade ever. [ yet another dramatic sigh as his arms flop out to the side, dropping the bag of shrimp on the ground for the moment. They could have at least given him a chili dog.

Maybe he needs cheering up. Or maybe seeing a three-foot-tall talking animal wearing shoes and gloves is just too weird to ignore. Or maybe he's laying in the way, which is a very real possibility, considering there's stuff to be moved at the moment... ]
