[So, Luceti. All's quiet this cold afternoon in the village and in the forest, right?
Well, it probably isn't anymore. In the forest, trees can be seen being bent and the leafless branches sway as something blasts by at high speed. Those with sharp eyes can catch a blue streak dashing along the ground, wind wrapping around it at its point, looking almost like a comet. A comet that leaps over every obstruction in its path without hesitation, and even bounces from tree to tree to clear any gaps... until it comes across one of the streams.
The blue blur doesn't hesitate, and instead begins following the river downstream, running along its surface, sending water flying back behind it in a wave... until it finds its way into the village.
Here the streak slows down enough that the wind surrounding it dissipates. Sonic takes his run through the village slower so he doesn't hit anyone, but he does take needlessly roundabout paths, bounding along the roofs of houses, off the sides of community buildings and along the tops of lamp posts until he makes it into the square. Here he finally stops, kicking up a large cloud of dust as he does so.
He pauses and takes a look around the square, his journal under his arm, unaware it started recording. With a casual scratch of his head, he then shakes his head, his blue quills gently swaying as he does so.]
Yup, definitely looks like I'm not in Kansas anymore. [He shrugs, then runs a finger along one of his wings, somewhat annoyed.] Not that I was there to begin with.
[Sonic then turns to anyone else in the square.]
Hey! Can anyone give me directions outta "Now-I-Have-Wings Land?" Can't really say I'm a fan...

[She points to its location, taking another sip while doing so.]

At least once a month, usually in the latter part, they subject the entire town to an experiment. It varies widely, but has caused extreme transformations, personality changes, people to remember their entire life history differently, and so on. At the end of the experiment, everything goes back to normal, as much as it can. But that doesn't mean people are unaffected by what they do.

However, I might have found a loophole, of sorts. Recently, they implemented a mission system, where we can choose to take on various tasks for them, and we're given rewards as a result. It's still manipulative, but if you time it just right...you might be lucky enough to escape what happens here, at least.

Date: 2012-01-13 04:06 am (UTC)My husband and I have tried the cave option. It's worked sometimes.
