Legend had it that my dad wired a string of Christmas lights to our Atari 2600 while playing this game, so when the explosions lit up, so did the lights. Don't ask me how he did it. But what he also did, however, was have the city fire department arrive at our Brooklyn apartment. Our neighbors called them on my family because they thought our apartment caught fire with all the flashes and colorful explosions popping off.

SINBAD OF THE SEVEN SEAS
The hedgehog and the half-genie hear a startling cry for help. Along their journey, Sonic must come to grips with the terrifying reality that may soon face him...
PREVIOUS CHAPTER: PLEASURE
NEXT CHAPTER: A PIRATE'S LIFE
"Help! Someone help!”
“-!!?”
The hedgehog’s ear twitched at the young voice, familiarity lining his features at the sound.
“Tails?”
The half-genie floating beside him cocked her head in confusion, “Who is-”
SHOOOOOM!
The Blue Blur was already gone, racing after the cries of his little brother. He soon happened upon the young fox racing through the bazaar, begging anyone he could to aid him in his struggles. Sonic zipped up to him, ready to fly in for a hug before quickly realizing his mistake. Given that his royal majesty resembled the evil doctor back home, it was more likely that his little brother also wasn’t…well…his little brother…He froze, arms still outstretched as the two of them stared at each other in silence.
Well this was…awkward…
“Master Sonic!”
The young fox jolted as the half-genie flew beside the unmoving hedgehog, “A…genie?”
“Half-genie…uuh…”
“Ali-Baba. Hmm…I know it may seem weird to ask as new acquaintances, but given your power, do you think you could help me out? I am in desperate need of a hero!”
Sonic shook his head, “A hero, you say?”
“Yes. I need a hero, one who is fast and brave and strong and, well, perhaps even larger than life!”
“Heh heh heh…” Sonic pointed to his flaming chest with a cocky grin, “Then I’m your guy!”
The fox beamed, “Fantastic! Follow me! I will explain along the way!”
—----------------------------------------------------------
“Okay, so you just need our help to free your teacher?”
“Yes! He is being kept locked away atop these levitated ruins! There should be a switch atop each of the surrounding towers. His cage lies in the center.”
Sonic folded his arms, tilting his head upwards slightly and closing his eyes as the wind brushed gently against his quills, giving him a sense of normalcy he hadn’t felt since entering the book. He inhaled, taking in the surrounding sky high above the clouds.
He wanted to cherish this feeling…before it disappeared…
Forever…
Sharah was confused, “Master Sonic?”
The hedgehog snapped out of his trance, rubbing his nose slightly as he turned to face his friend, “I’m alright, Sharah.” He lunged, ready to take off, “Let’s do it to it!”
“Right!”
The genie disappeared back into her ring, Ali-Baba opting to wait for them at his teacher’s side. The Hero of Mobius raced onward, a trail of blue left in his wake as he leapt and glided along the ruins, performing tricks whenever he was airborne. He felt happy, running like this, though he wasn’t free.
How could he be?
He couldn’t even hit his normal speed…
That didn’t matter though as Sonic neared one of the levers Ali-Baba had spoken of. He gripped the handle, pulling with all his strength.
Nothing.
Sonic bent over, having to catch his breath for once. 
“Master Sonic, I can pull the lever for you if you wish me t-”
Before she had a chance to finish, Sonic leapt up, gripping the handle once more and revving into a spindash. He threw his body forward, the weight of his momentum enough to push the lever the rest of the way. Once it clicked into place, the mechanism attached snapped, freeing one of the locks from the prison in the center. Sonic laid on his back, quills sprawled out beneath him against the stony floor of the tower. Sharah reappeared, kneeling to his side in worry.
“M-Master Sonic! Are you alright!?”
Sonic pushed forth another smile.
“Y-Yeah…Heh heh…Only three to go…”
Yeah…
It was easy enough…
He could do this…
Sonic hopped up onto his feet, racing towards the next tower with Sharah in tow.
This time, he would be the hero of the story…
No wishes required…
—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After freeing the rest of the lock mechanisms, the Legendary Blue Hedgehog raced to the central tower, approaching the fox as he freed his teacher with joy.
“You are free, teacher! You are finally free!”
“Heh…Took you long enough…”
“Yo! Ali!”
The fox turned, his teacher turning towards the hedgehog as well with a scowl.
“‘Ali’?” He pounded his fists together as he approached, “Listen here, hero…His name is Ali-Baba, you got that? You’d do well to respect my student!”
Sonic rolled his eyes before facepalming, “Of course you’d be that knucklehead…”
“WHAT WAS THAT!!?”
“Stop it, you two!!!”
The pair of brothers…well, at least on Mobius…froze in place as their youngest sibling raced between them, arms thrown wide.
‘Knuckles’ pounded his fists together once more, “Out of the way, kid.”
“Yeah, and like ‘kid’ is much better?”
“SHUT UP!!!”
“Ugh…” Ali-Baba facepalmed, shaking his head in tandem. He turned to face the Blue Blur, ignoring the two’s bickering as he spoke, “Sonic, this is Sinbad. He took me in as a young kit and taught me everything I know. He is a great adventurer!”
Sinbad folded his arms, “Hmph. Not just any great adventurer either…” He pumped his fist in the air as his eyes sparkled, “For I am Sinbad of the Seven Seas! The Adventurer of Adventurers!”
The hedgehog was unamused, “Cool, Mr. ‘Adventurer of Adventurers’, but mind telling us where that water blue ring of yours is? We kinda need it.”
Sinbad jolted, “What the-!!! How do you know of the ring!!!” He drew his scimitar in defense.
Sharah appeared, waving her hands out in front of her, “Sinbad please! We were sent by King Sharyar himself!”
“Huh?”
Sonic rubbed his ear in annoyance, “Yeah. Turns out we’re here to save the world. Who knew?”
Sharah groaned at him in frustration, “Would you take this seriously? Your life depends on it, Master!”
The hedgehog’s witty demeanor faltered, his gaze growing slightly fearful as he gazed down at the flame on his chest. He folded his arms, turning away from her before she could see, “I am Sharah. Believe me…”
Everyone fell silent for a moment.
“...”
“...”
“...”
“It was stolen.”
“Huh?”
Sonic turned back around to face the echidna adventurer as he sighed in resignation.
“The ring…it was stolen by a group of pirates…”
“Pirates?”
“Yes. If you wish to retrieve it and take down the Erazor Djinn…” He turned, pointing towards a dark part of the sky far in the distance, “Follow the storm. There, you will find those thieves. I wish you the best of luck.”
Sonic’s eyes widened in shock, “Huh? Just like that?”
Sinbad rubbed the back of his head, “Well, I do consider myself a great judge of character…”
Ali-Baba raced up beside him, “He is also incredibly soft once you get to know him!”
“STOP TELLING PEOPLE THAT!!! IT RUINS MY IMAGE!!!”
“Pfft-HAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!”
The adventuring echidna held a fist up in the direction of the hedgehog bent over in his fit of laughter, “WHAT IS SO FUNNY ABOUT THAT!!??”
“Sorry…Sorry…It’s just…you remind me of my older brother back home…” Sonic stood tall once more, his gaze falling slightly, “I…miss him…” He hugged his sides as he attempted not to think about the flame’s curse and how he might never see him again.
“Then tell him that when you see him.”
Sinbad held out a fist in respect.
Sonic smiled, meeting his fist with his own.
“Yeah…I will…Thanks, Sinbad.”
The echidna chuckled.
“Sure thing, kid.”

"I should not be left to my own devices; they come with prices and vices; I end up in crisis (tale as old as time)..."

New Factor It In chapter today!
Chapter 3 - “Base”
Read on FFN || Read on AO3
---
Rex (AKA Kid Math) is no longer mind controlled, thanks to WordGirl... but since he needs a moment to himself, he retreats to his super secret spaceship hideout. Meanwhile, Sally Botsford chats with Exposition Guy and his wife, who are taking in a new foster kid...
(First 1,000 words under the cut)
Base
.:: January 3rd - Saturday - 1:54 pm ::.
"Analyze yourself at your worst to understand yourself at your best."
(Ancient Hexagon proverb)
➕ ➖ ✖️ ➗
Psst! Look for the words intimidated and integrated
---
SHOOOOOM!
He streaks above the city in a blur of blue. The absence of the Narrator is bitter and haunting. Rex tries not to let it weigh on him. He should treasure these moments. They let him work through his thoughts in private without that infuriating busybody prodding at him with an invisible finger.
Hot chocolate sounds scrumptious in this weather, but the food trucks will have to wait. This mind control belt is going straight to his spaceship hideout before it does any more harm. Rex struggles through the blinding snowflakes as best as he can, wiping melting slush from his eyelashes. Is he over the suburbs yet? The wind lashes him towards the rooftops. He can't see far ahead, and not only because he left the smashed remains of his glasses in that crater. He's too fast. Too cold. Ick. He wraps his hands around his shoulders, decreasing the wind resistance against his body for optimal flight. It's freezing. They didn't have anything like this back on Hexagon, you know. This weather is just all-around awful. Why does WordGirl stay on a planet with such a strong tilt to its axis?
Well… He knows the answer to that question, actually. Her family live here. Her Earth family, anyway. As he veers through the snowflakes, trying not to crash into any buildings, Rex grits his teeth. Family. What a nuisance. Sure, it's easy for WordGirl - Becky - to suggest he settle with an Earth couple. She doesn't remember her parents at all, so switching them out for new ones probably never hurt her.
But the LAST two people he wants to cram into his life are a false mom and false dad. Those titles are acid on his tongue. Becky can build her perilous house of cards, but personally? Rex would rather not create a secret identity around a lie of "having Earth parents" whom he "loves."
So what if he hasn't lived with his mom since he was in his 30s? And so what if his dad hasn't set foot off Lexicon in a century? That doesn't mean they're not his parents. And it doesn't mean it's okay to just replace them with random strangers he's not sure he'll ever care about.
And it's not fair for Becky to make me do that.
But she did.
He can still remember the day, just over two weeks ago now, when WordGirl broke the news about the foster system. They were in the forest, surrounded by the evergreens he'd already grown familiar with. His scooter craft had been damaged in a small fall when it ran out of fuel, just a few days after arriving here on Earth. Rex had crawled underneath it with a couple of good wrenches, scowling hopelessly at the mess of wires and wishing for a pair of pliers instead. Then WordGirl swooped in with her usual hot and fiery swishing noise and he'd jerked up, bashing his forehead on the underside of the scout vessel. Ow. He nicked his forehead on serrated metal. Two seconds later, it flickered with an icy chill and sealed over again.
"Well, good news, Rex! I've found you a warm, safe place to stay for the winter while your spaceship heater's busted. Once the snow melts in spring, Bob and I can take a look at it with you and try to fix it up."
She wore her favorite green sweater, like a fluffy carrot top that concealed a discouraging harvest below. She'd been all smiles as he crawled out from under the scooter, and Huggy had squealed his agreement. You know… It really had sounded like good news at first. She got excited for him. Let's break this down. A temporary family who could check up on him every now and then? Help him get food, use the post office, and get around the city? Great! It would be a nice change of scenery to stretch his legs. He could use a few nights away from his spaceship.
The journey from Hexagon had been a long one. It took him two years. He hadn't technically crashed his ship when he landed on this planet, but he had clipped a few trees on his way down. Then he bashed the starboard side against a giant boulder and broke a few things. You know, maybe that was considered crashing… but he still had his fingers crossed that he could get it up again in no time. He just… needed to wait for spring, so he could stand working outside for long hours without all this icy wind.
The snow hadn't been this bad back then. Just two inches deep (inches are an Earth unit of measurement, equivalent to 2.72 rokurans). The blood raced in his veins, but he'd thought that would be the end of it. Then WordGirl had mentioned foster care. An agent she knew. Some ideas she had. And he'd just… stood there, staring at her silently with the wrench drooping from his hand.
Foster care. With Earth families and other Earthling kids.
"Oh…" What else was he supposed to say? He fidgeted with the wrench and (very slowly) leaned back against the hood of his scooter craft. "Thanks, WordGirl. I appreciate you looking out for me, but I really don't need a babysitter. I'm 51 and I almost graduated top of my class from the Hexagonian Children's Learning Facility. I already picked up some picture books on forest foraging from the library. I know how to start fires and put them out again safely. I'm perfectly fine with being independent while I'm here on Earth."
WordGirl had hesitated then, and he'd remembered a split-second later that on this planet, he wasn't considered 51. Right. He could recognize his age inherently, even across the universe. His Hexagonian blood wouldn't let him forget it. He'd done the math. One year on Hexagon translated to 61.078 Earth days.
But here, the people viewed him as only 8 years old. Rex was pretty sure he'd "turn 9" on this planet sometime this upcoming summer - he'd be close to 53.56209 years on Hexagon if his calculations were accurate - though he wasn't yet confident with the names of the Earth months.
He hadn't relayed any of this to WordGirl yet in case he got the words wrong. January, June, July… March, May… The names danced on a blurry stage like ballerinas encased in ice. Okay, yeah- side note: It still boggled his mind that so many people on this planet could read written words as easily as Lexiconians did. In fact, this whole planet was full of readers.
He still wanted to wait for the right moment to bring up the date. He had time.

So, I've been thinking about whether or not Winter's illusions should be hard illusions or not, and in the process of that, I came across the beautiful image of Winter and her pokemon each operating one pedal bicycle, like some really weird seesaw, and just riding by a bunch of people on the Skyarrow bridge like that
just
You see a bike coming towards you and- SHOOOOOM
And then you do a double take, and it's 3 Pokemon operating a bicycle, two on the pedals and one steering
Somehow, the one steering is a Joltik

Queen 30 day challenge Day 1
Okay so since we’re all under quarantine due to this Corona virus shit, now’s a good a time to relax and get to know our fellow Internet friends.  Since joining the BoRhap/Queen fandom I’ve been more connected with my tumblr users than ever before in like the last 2-3years since I started this blog. So inspired by @ure-gonna-loveme-when-u-seeme​‘s recent post, I figure I’d let you all know me a little bit better when it comes to my Queen fandom base. Starting with the first question of the day;
Day 1: How did I get into Queen?
Tumblr media
Well like most young people my age, I sadly never did get to know Queen when they went starting off, or becoming the Rock Gods they became, or go see any of their shows, hell I was born 5 years after Freddie passed away. But I sorta grew up on their music in passing.
The first ever Queen song I heard was “We Will rock you” (I was maybe.....5-6yrs old?) when it played for an ad trailer for the Crocodile Hunter: Collision course movie. Of course I had no idea who was singing the song, I just liked the feel of it and kinda thought nothing else of it. Then when Happy Feet (yes the animate penguin movie) came out and I heard Brittney Murphy (RIP) sing “Somebody to love” that song really hit me as probably one of my ALL. TIME. FAV. SONGS. FF to some years later I heard through Just Dance 3/4 (I can’t remember I’ll have to look back but I’m pretty sure it’s 3) I heard Crazy little thing called love and thought that was a pretty groovy song to dance to.
But again it was only just a few songs throughout my life that Queen popped in and out of. Hell I didn’t finally hear Bohemian Rhapsody till literally months before the film came out when my English class had to do a ‘Scientology theory’ activity on. (It was musical chairs with the song BoRhap. We were each given one piece of candy, and everytime someone got out, they had to surrender the candy. Last one standing gets the entire class set of candy. I came in 3rd place SOOO CLOSE).
But then on that November weekend back in 2018 I went and saw the film and my interest in Queen, a band whose music came in and out of my life, just SHOOOOOM. Skyrocketted (as I’m sure it did everyone else).
From then on I saw the film 2 more times, watched any documentary I could find. Scrolled through Amazon music to listen to more of their songs and found more and more of them to like. Watched interviews they did, concerts, etc. 
From then on I became a Queenactic, (my dad says that my knowledge of Queen compares to his knowledge of Rush. And he is a HUUUUUUUGGGGE RUSH fan). So yeah that’s a little information about me and how I became a Queen fan.

Rei spat the vegetables out and shook her head. “Oh no, if we got it in our mouth, we swallow.“ said Mercy grabbing another piece of vegetables with the fork and moved it in front of Rei. Genji looked up from his tablet and raised an eyebrow. Mercy felt his gaze on the back of her head and turned around:
Mercy: Not a word.
Genji: Not a word about what?
Mercy: Stop smirking.
Genji: Who’s smirking?
Mercy: Ach du—You can be really insufferable sometimes, you know that? *pushing spoon in Rei’s direction* Come on, Sunneschii—here comes the orca!! Shooooom!
Rei: *takes bite and immediately spits it out again*
Mercy: *exasperated* Rei!
Genji: You heard your mummy, Rei. This is a swallowing family.
Mercy: Genji!
Genji: What? She’s not even 1. I wouldn’t say subtext is a strong suit for her yet.
Rei: *blows raspberry at vegetables*

THAT'S WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR
Along one of his runs, Sonic runs into a girl from Chris and Eve's school. Inspired by her dream, he faces his fears in order to watch her make them come true...
inspired by: Sonic X Episode 14
PREVIOUS CHAPTER: THE RED STRING OF SHELLS
NEXT CHAPTER: SONIC'S SCREAM TEAM
SHOOOOOM!
With Eggman gone, peace returned to Station Square. Now that the secret of their existence was out, Sonic finally felt free to just run and explore the world outside the Thorndyke mansion without holding back. With the warm midsummer winds brushing through his quills and the rhythmic drumming of his feet beneath him, he never felt more alive. He was truly happy here on Earth. In a way, it was beginning to feel like a second ho-
skrrrt skrrrrt
“Oh nonono…Come on…Come ooon…”
“Huh?”
skiiiiiiiiid
Once he came to a stop, Sonic backtracked to the source of the distress. Near the edge of a muddy lake was the blonde girl he recognized from Chris and Eve’s school. He watched for a moment as she pushed the steering stick on her motorized wheelchair to no avail before leaning over the side and attempting to push the wheels free from the mud herself. With a burst of force, the wheel budged ever so slightly before suddenly sinking deeper, causing the wheelchair to lose balance and tip towards its side.
“Ah!”
SHOOM!
“Oop! I gotcha!”
With a solid grip on the handlebars, Sonic tilted the wheelchair back upright before it could fall and pushed it free from the mud. The girl turned her head to look behind her, sky-blue eyes meeting those of an emerald hue with immediate recognition.
“Ah! You’re the hero from my school! The one who beat Eggman on TV!”
“Oh! You remember me?”
“Of course! You were so brave and cool! My name is Helen!”
“Heh I’m Sonic! Sonic the Hedgehog!” He gave her his signature wink.
‐—----------------------------------------------------
“And that’s how I ended up on your world.”
“That’s a crazy story! I’m happy you were able to find your friends!”
“Yeah! And I even made some new ones along the way: Chris, Eve…and now you!” He smiled.
Helen looked to the hedgehog casually resting his arm on one of the handlebars with wide eyes, “Wait…you would consider me a friend?”
Sonic’s eyes popped open in curiosity, “Of course. Why wouldn’t I?”
Helen sighed sadly, turning her face away from him, “I mean…won’t I just…you know…hold you back?”
“Huh? What do you mean by that?”
“...Nothing…” Helen looked to the island at the center of the lake, “You know, Sonic, I’ve always had this dream that one day I’d see the flowers on that island and that I’d be able to do it all by myself. I even learned how to swim. Nobody thought I could do it, but with enough practice, I was able to stay afloat and eventually get pretty good at it. I feel so at home in the water, though…I’d never be able to make it against the lake’s current. Once I learned that…”
Sonic watched her sadly before a look of determination crossed his face, “Helen, if it’s alright with you, I would like you to take me to that island so we can enjoy the flowers together.”
Helen stared at him in shock, “R-Really!? You’d do that with me!?”
“There’s no one else I’d rather have leading the way.” Sonic winked at her, “I’ll follow you anywhere, Captain!”
Helen grabbed his hands in excitement, “Then let’s go tonight!”
“H-Huh!?”
“You’re super fast, right!? You can get us a boat, some oars, and some life vests, and I’ll meet you back here after dinner! I can’t wait!!” The girl’s eyes sparkled with the thrill of her upcoming adventure.
The hedgehog in question began to sweat nervously, “L-L-Lake…? T-Tonight…?”
“Yes!! We’ll cross the lake tonight and view the petals under the full moon!!” Helen squealed in anticipation, hugging her new friend tightly, “I’M SO EXCITED!!! THANK YOU, SONIC!!!”
Sonic, stiff as a board and sweating more profusely now, reciprocated the hug with a shaky hand, “Y-You’re welcome, Helen…See you later tonight heh heh heh…”
The girl pulled out of their embrace and began wheeling away in a hurry before stopping one last time and waving to the jittery hedgehog, “Bye, Sonic!!! See you later!!!”
The anxious hero waved back until she was out of sight. He then dropped both his head and his hand in resignation, his fate now sealed. He began to mumble nervously about the situation he had gotten himself into.
A tiny boat…
Tonight…
Surrounded by water…
So…much…water…
His soul left his body at the thought.
“I’m not mentally prepared for this…”
—----------------------------------------------------
As the sun set over the tranquil lake scene, Sonic ran up to his new friend, a small rowboat in hand. She was now dressed in more athletic clothing, her hair tied up with a simple pink ribbon to match the outfit. The two smiled at each other in greeting, ready to begin their adventure.
Sonic grabbed the couple life vests from the boat, tossing one to Helen. Once they were both suited up, Helen climbed into the stationed boat, directing Sonic on how to fold her wheelchair for passage as she situated herself. The hedgehog’s ear twitched in concentration as he carefully followed the girl’s instructions. Levers and switches were normally Tails’s strong suit. Thankfully, he had a good teacher with him to coach him through the process. Once the chair was loaded onto the boat and Helen had oars in hand, Sonic pushed them off with an excited count, and the two of them were on their way.
Sonic sat there, huddled a bit as Helen rowed them towards the island at the lake’s center. With each powerful pull of the oars, the boat grew ever closer to their goal and ever distant from the safety of the shore. After a few minutes, the girl paused, wiping the sweat from her brow and chugging a bit from her water bottle.
She smiled, the grueling workout she’d just endured giving her a burst of dopamine, “Phew! At least the current isn’t too strong. That island is further than I thought.”
Sonic’s eyes stayed glued to the watery doom under him as he responded, “Y-Yeah…Hopefully we can hurry up and get there soon…”
Helen paused, her expression shifting from that of joy to shame mixed with a bit of hurt, “Sorry, Sonic…I bet you’d already be over there now if it weren’t for me.”
Her sudden shift in tone immediately pulled Sonic out of his anxiety. He turned towards her in a moment of confusion before it struck him what she thought he was referring to, “W-Wait! I-I didn’t mean it like-!”
She shook her head, continuing to look away from his gaze, “Don’t worry about it. I know it must be frustrating having to wait up for me, especially since you’re so fast. I even have a hard time keeping up with most of my classmates when I’m not in the water. While they can run and play freely, I'm usually the one sitting on the sidelines. It'd be too dangerous for me or limiting on the other kids for me to join in. That's what all the adults tell me anyway.”
“Helen…”
“They tell me that they’re sorry for me, that there’s something wrong with being born the way I was. I don’t want to believe it, but…” A few frustrated tears threatened to spring up, “Maybe they’re right. There’s so much I can’t do that comes so naturally to everyone else. Even now, when I’m so close to my dream…”
“Woah, Helen, slow down a sec!” She paused, looking to the hedgehog in anticipation, “I didn’t come with you tonight to try and help you cross this lake because I felt like you needed it. Not even close.”
The girl seemed genuinely surprised, “Then why did you come?”
“Because I wanted to see your smile when you made your dream come true. I wanted to be a part of such a special moment for you because, well, that’s just what friends do.” A more serious expression crossed his face, “Those adults are wrong about you. You’re the only reason we’ve even made it this far. You made the plans. You led me back on the shore. You rowed us out here.” Sonic winked, rubbing his nose a moment, “All I did was fetch the boat like you asked heh heh heh.”
Helen’s eyes widened, her spark of life and confidence returning before a new question begged her attention, “Wait so…what about what you said? If you didn’t want to hurry because you were frustrated with me, then why-?”
Sonic sheepishly smiled, a drop of sweat forming on his head, “Oh, I’m just scared to death of water.”
“Eh?”
Sonic rubbed his head with a tiny, comical yet nervous grin, “Yeeeeaaahhh…as it turns out, I can’t swim. I just sink like a brick. It’s kinda embarrassing though so…please don’t tell anyone…”
“...”
“...”
“YOU HAD ME BRING YOU OUT TO THE MIDDLE OF THE LAKE IN A TINY ROWBOAT IN THE DARK WHEN YOU CAN’T SWIM!?!?!? DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW RECKLESS THAT IS!?!?!? WHAT IF YOU FELL OVERBOARD AND I COULDN’T REACH YOU!?!?!?”
“Hey, that’s what friends are for, right? Heh heh heh heh…”
“THAT ISN’T THE POINT!!!”
Helen crossed her arms, releasing a loud huff in response to her new friend’s lack of concern for his own safety, “Well since we’re already this far out, I guess I have no choice. Let’s get you to that island!” With that, she grabbed both oars and began rowing furiously with newfound strength.
“That’s the spirit, Helen!”
Sonic cheered her on enthusiastically the rest of the way. While Helen wanted to stay mad at him, she couldn’t help but smile and even laugh slightly at his overly goofy, playful manner. It felt good to have a friend who saw her for her strengths, just as she was, as Helen. That alone made this adventure worth it in her eyes and she would carry that with her from now on, no matter what anyone said.
After a few more minutes, the duo rowed up onto the far side of the island. Sonic focused on dragging the ship inland while Helen popped open her wheelchair with rhythm and ease. She set it in the sandy bank, pushing herself up out of the boat and into her seat while Sonic undid his life vest. Helen tossed him hers to lay in the boat, and the two of them were ready to continue their journey.
It only took a matter of minutes to navigate the small island thanks to the brightness of the moon. Eventually, Sonic and Helen happened upon a lit up clearing past the trees. That was where they found it.
“There it is, Helen!”
“Ah. The flower field!”
Sonic rested a free arm on one of the chair’s handlebars as he took in his new friend’s joy and wonder at the scene with a content smile. The white flowers seemed to almost be glowing under the moonlight. It was a serene moment forever etched in his memory, just like one of the many ancient carvings found on Angel Island. He wanted to make sure Helen would always remember this moment, and swiftly bent down to pick a few flowers for her.
“Sonic, don’t!”
“Huh?”
He looked up in confusion at his bright-eyed friend, “I want to leave them exactly as they are.”
Sonic smiled, standing back up at her side, “I get it. You want to come back here and see them again.”
“Yes, and bring my mama and papa along too!”
“That sounds wonderful, Helen.”
A few petals blew in the wind, creating little flecks of dancing light.
“Thank you, Sonic.”
“Hm?”
“You gave me such a wonderful gift, bringing me out here tonight.”
The hedgehog chuckled slightly, “Nah. I’m the one who should be thanking you.”
“Hm? What for?”
“I never would have crossed that lake if not for you, and then I never would have been able to see such a beautiful place. You on the other hand, you were always going to make it. You can do so much more than you think, Helen. You just needed to believe in yourself.” Sonic turned, winking at the girl, “I’m proud of you for that.”
The girl stared at the hero in awe a moment before expressing her brightest smile, illuminated by a few petals blowing past.
“Thank you, Sonic, for being my friend.”
“Thank you, Helen, for being mine.”

Kiran has a hard time holding magic infused weapons (usually holy weapons with distinct names) because of his magic resistance. he can force his hands down and around the hilt of a weapon, but depending on how long his magic resistance has been building, it will either hurt him, or have a magnet-like effect and force the weapon away. the latter is pretty useful when he wants to launch a weapon at someone at high speed. all he has to do is angle his hands properly and shoom.
