Noth-nanigans

Instigating snow based hijinks:
Naturally, when one is surrounded by snow and is also a menace, there has to be at least one snowball fight­. Especially with the uh, weird influx of children around. Kids are dumb, they love snowball fights! And like building snow forts and shit. Y'know, Snow Stuff!

Sonic's not gonna yeet snowballs at any unsuspecting children though, that would be rude. He Row runts and Agrii kids alike are invited nicely to engage in winter warfare because Sonic's nice that way, he'll be a pointy blue babysitter for a while.

Adults though, I'm sorry. Y'all are gettin' snowballed in the back of the skull by a bored hedgehog.

Except maybe Wesker. Sonic might think twice before pelting that one with snowballs.

Only twice though.

time for pent up homesickness

Admittedly Sonic's been doing more solo exploring than he has been actively engaging with the festivities. As such, he'd missed the initial gift giving, but it's fine. One fo the A.G.R.I.I. managed to track him down wherever he was outside and enforce GIFT upon him before heading off to find another giftless loser. It was kinda weird, of course Sonic was too curious not to open one of his gifts right there. 'Right there' being sitting on top of a cabin most likely, because he has no chill.

A photo of his friends from back home was probably the last thing he would have expected? Frankly, it catches him completely off guard. He sits in silence staring at it for kind of a long time, the initial surprise fading eventually and giving way to just being straight up bummed out. This might be the most miserable he's been or looked the whole time he's been here, even more so than when he got chewed up by that monster thing a few months back. Geez, has it already been that long? Really puts into perspective how long it's been since he's seen most of his buddies.

Or maybe he just feels miserable because his ass is freezing to this roof. Dude needs to learn to wear pants.

Agrii ship: he's just a little guy! Look at his widdle faaaace!

Of course Sonic was going to visit the Agrii ship, it would just be stupid not to try to learn as much as he could about their weird alien overlords. Unfortunately, apart from the map of the ship and being granted access to... maybe a lot more of the ship than he expected, he hasn't been able to learn much of anything. Mostly he'd been hoping to listen to them long enough to pick up their actual language, but no luck. He wasn't having an easier time understanding them pretty much at all. His progress on the language front has been pretty much completely halted, as was his progress on his secondary objective; Operation: Tell the Agrii to Stop Helping Because They're Just Making Everything Harder. They may just have to be abandoned all together, if only because Sonic can't seem to avoid the small groups of Agrii that keep cornering him to pet his little heaaaaaaad.

He doesn't want to hurt them, they're just big goobers, but he sure is going to try to wave down the first person he sees whether he knows them or not. How about an assist, bud? Do a hedgehog a favor??

❄️ snowball yeeting ❄️

Hell yeah, snowball fights! She's suprised it took this long to get hit with one, but as soon as it does, and she feels some of the snow on her skin, she decides to dramatically faceplant on the ground as if she were hit with something solid rather than snow. Her plan here is she'll surprise whoever tossed it if they come closer with some snowballs in return. It's a great plan, obviously.

Homesickness

[personal profile] thelastechidna 2024-01-12 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Knuckles also is a loner and was handed his gifts by a robot. Now he's just stunned by actually receiving the Master Emerald and a Chaos Emerald. They're clearly de-powered, but they're still here. Hopefully that weird bounty hunter from an alternate dimension won't want them in this state....

As he's standing and staring at the gifts, he suddenly hears a slight motion and looks up at the roof. Sonic does that all the time in his world too, so he's not really surprised. Still ...

"Isn't it too cold for that?"

Knuckles sighs, not impressed. "You're a really bad actor. Even I can tell that. But yes, too cold for sitting on a roof in snow." He quirks an eyebrow. "I like being alone too, but at least I find other ways to do it."

[personal profile] thelastechidna 2024-01-13 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
Knuckles is keeping a very close eye on it.

"Of course I haven't forgotten them! Yes, it's the real Master Emerald, but it's completely drained of its power. I'll guard it and this Chaos Emerald with my life anyway."
thelastechidna: (Default)

[personal profile] thelastechidna 2024-01-13 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah. And there's some bounty hunter around claiming he wants the Emeralds back home. I don't know him, but he knows me. I hope he won't want them like this." Knuckles scowls.

((OOC: What Emerald color does Sonic have?))

[personal profile] thelastechidna 2024-01-13 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
((OOC: Okay!))

Knuckles frowns. "Maybe. He acted like he was also interested in their value as regular gems. But I don't suppose anyone here would buy them from him even if he tried to steal and sell them." He hopes. "Their color isn't as brilliant when they're de-powered either."

He's holding the purple Chaos Emerald.

"Exactly," Knuckles smirks. Luckily for Fang, he didn't seem eager to challenge Knuckles after several failures back home.

He's surprised by this. "Really? I wonder if that's another difference between our worlds."

[personal profile] thelastechidna 2024-01-13 07:11 am (UTC)(link)
Knuckles would certainly scold him if he knew.

"Yeah, it's been a big surprise on me too."

He wonders where to keep them so they'll be safe. Of course, they'll go wherever he goes.

(To be fair, she would totally keep his secret of putting rocks in snowballs if he had stashed a few like that away.)

She rolls over with a smile — clearly fine — and tosses the secret snowball she'd made at him. It's Sonic, though, so it may or may not actually hit him because being fast is fun like that (she assumes). As for a verbal reply, though, that comes with an excited “Yep! I'm good!”

"I don't know if they're doing it on purpose, but yeah."

Knuckles watches Sonic try to inch off. "Well, just try to find a better place to take your solitude."

HOMESICKNESS and maybe other shenanigans

[personal profile] reneggadetinkerer 2024-01-13 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Nothing about this was ideal. Stuck on some frigid world for heavens knew how long without access to his workshop where resources seemed even more scarce than back where they came from! He barely had enough time to nose about the ships and now he's expected to join in on these...eugh. Festivities.

He hated parties. He hated this. He hated being cold. What he wouldn't give for a cup of coffee right now while warming himself by the glow of a superconductor.

Eggman doesn't even notice Sonic on the roof. He's merely stomping around grumbling loudly to himself as old people tend to do while clapping himself around his rotund torso. The Agrii were at least kind enough to give him a knitted cap and scarf, the former of which has a knitted gear atop it while the scarf is a prominent, goldenrod.

"What is even the blasted point of this place? Why are we here? We shouldn't have to be forced into celebrating whatever it is they're celebrating! Someone needs to teach these Agrii about personal and cultural sensitivity!"

"GAH!"

Eggman whips around fast enough that he falls backwards into the snow. His head snaps back and forth, trying to zero in on Sonic's location before he finally looks up and sees the hedgehog perched up on a roof.

Angrily, he adjusts his glasses.

"What in blazes are you doing up there?! Do you always need to find some perch to survey from?! Get a proper Control Tower like the rest of us!"

[personal profile] reneggadetinkerer 2024-01-13 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hm? What was that you've got there?"

Eggman pushes himself to his feet and dusts himself off from any errant snow.

"And judging from your lack of incessant banter I can only assume you're quite done with this worthless excursion as well."
