itdoesntmatter[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...

As for what, you can thank the Malnosso for keeping us locked up in the enclosure. They're a shady organization claiming they're on our side and that their wacky "experiments" are our ticket out of here.
[He shakes his head.]
Thing is, they're just as stuck as we are. It's probably got something to do with this world.

no subject
Date: 2012-01-10 04:53 am (UTC)Don't think anyone's worked out the reason, but this world's got its share of problems.

First there's the experiments they put us through. Sometimes they're annoying, but pretty harmless. They might change someone's age, species, or gender, but nothing painful.
[There's a pause, and his expression turns to something sour.]
Other times they'll mess with our minds. Change our memories, our feelings, and sometimes who we are completely. And that's when they aren't sending us out to fight their battles.
no subject
Date: 2012-01-10 10:51 pm (UTC)And fighting their battles? Who could guys that can warp minds possibly be fighting that need us to do the dirty work?
[There is a hint of sarcasm in his voice in that last part, but obviously in contempt of the Malnosso for not taking care of their own garbage.]
no subject
Date: 2012-01-11 02:45 am (UTC)Experiments are pretty random. The only way to get around them is to do missions for the Malnosso. Rack up points, and you might get something to help resist them.
[Riku hasn't bothered yet, though.]
As for the battles... they put us up against a group called the Third Party. Their goal is to kill everyone here because they think it'll save them or something.
[It's pretty messed up, to say the least.]

Date: 2012-01-11 04:17 am (UTC)...however long I'm stuck here.
no subject
Date: 2012-01-11 04:35 am (UTC)Hard to tell. I've been here almost three years, but some people last less than a month.
[Okay, so it's not the most encouraging news, but he might as well get it out of the way.]
But there's one thing I will say about this place; it never gets too dull around here.

Date: 2012-01-13 12:31 am (UTC)So, are there any good parts about being stuck in this snow globe?
no subject
Date: 2012-01-13 01:40 am (UTC)[...Heh.]
Actually, it's usually not too bad. Most of the time it's pretty laid back, and there's plenty of stuff to do. Heck, the people here throw parties all the time.
[Which is a bit of an exaggeration, but they are becoming more frequent.]
no subject
Date: 2012-01-13 03:46 am (UTC)When does that kind of stuff happen? And are they for everyone?
no subject
Date: 2012-01-13 07:21 am (UTC)[This does not include private birthday parties, of course.]
And if nothing's going on, you could always drop by the rec center or Cloud Nine.

Could always drop by the battle dome for good measure. It can simulate just about anything.
