homeless; canon is Sonic Boom

[legday]

... Wait, so you're going to be me? But I'm me! So if you're me, who am I now? Am I you? How does this work?

Can someone draw me a chart, or something? This is making my head spin.

Knuckles? Is that really you?

[ Ah, screw it, teasing mode go. ] You could warn a lady that you were planning on getting so handsome!

[legday]

Uh... yeah? I think, anyway. I'm still not sure how this whole someone-else-being-me thing works, but I still feel like myself.

[ He tries to shake off his confusion so he can actually pay attention, which is good because uh. He's... he's not sure who this is. does rouge exist in sonic boom!verse WHO KNOWS, THANKS SEGA ]

It's hard to warn someone you've never met, y'know.

[batburglar]

We've never met? Aw, Knuckles, you'd even forget a face like mine? You can be so cold hearted!

[ Playing along, she's pretty sure she's never met this version of Knuckles, either, buuut ]

If you have to have a reminder, it's Rouge the Bat. Don't go forgetting it again, now.

[legday]

I didn't forget anything!

[ ... but then how does she know him... ]

... Probably! I think. I'm pretty good at remembering faces, and I don't know yours, but... I guess it's good to meet you again?

ain't no party like a Sanicks party awww yeaaaahhh

[songoose]

[okay, it's true the last time she'd seen him was right before her world tour, and a thousand things have happened since then, but...

... WOW]

So, I guess the Chaotix lifestyle really keeps you in shape, huh?

... you are Knuckles, right? Right...?

located on scenic pumpkin hill

[legday]

Chao-whatsit? Why is everyone talking about things that never happened? Do I have some long-lost twin I never knew about?!

not gonna let it get to me just gon freak

[songoose]

You know... the Chaotix. Vector, Espio... Julie-Su? You all represent Angel Island to fight against Eggman...? [no, but seriously, please tell her you remember these guys because if this is some completely different Echidna she will feel so embarrassed right now]

I-I mean, I don't think you have a long-lost twin! But then, anything is possible... [especially if Ken Penders is involved]

the great emerald's power allows me to FEEL

[legday]

Hey, if those guys want to help fight Eggman then that's totally awesome, but I've never heard of 'em. The only ones kicking Eggbutt that I know of are my team - me, Sonic, Tails, Amy, and Sticks.

[ yeah that's right HIS team at least he didn't call sonic Knuckles Jr. ]

... Would be cool if there was a twin, though. Just imagine what I could do with two of me!

[ THINK OF ALL THE WEIGHTS TO BE LIFTED ]

[ringaroundrose]

Wha - Knuckles! You... you...

[What is the right word for this?]

... You're huge!

[Close enough.]

[legday]

Hey, thanks! I did a few extra reps today, glad it shows.

[ Knuckles, being Knuckles, remains totally oblivious to the fact that this is not the Amy he knows. ]

[ringaroundrose]

What, like, a million?!

[She's even poking his chest in disbelief. How is this real.]

[betwitcht]

Don't worry yourself about it too much, sweetheart. You'll get over it soon enough.

[legday]

[ Oh hey a human without a freakishly giant mustache! They do exist! ]

I don't know... kind of seems like this is the sort of thing that might actually be worth worrying about, a little.

[betwitcht]

[does Knuckles need a lecture on human sexual dimorphism...]

Unfortunately, the best way to truly understand it is to jump in feet-first.

[reachforthestars]

It happened, I cannot believe--

Aw man, Knuckles! Please tell me you got buff through good old fashon hard work and you haven't gotten into anything you shouldn't have because I'm discussing the next Olympic games with Mario and the last thing we need is to lose one of our heavies to drugs.

[gonna flash to the past and go for a Sonic Says moment right,,. About... Now.]

Kids, don't do drugs. They're nooooooo good.

[legday]

Hey, Sonic, I--

What.

Of course I got these the old-fashioned way! I can't believe you'd actually think that I'd wreck my body with that kind of junk! Way insulting!

[reachforthestars]

Hey man, desperate times. Getting turned down to be an Assist Trophy can be pretty devastating, y'know. And friends gotta look out for each other! All for the true super power of teamwork!

So... how're the arm wraps treating ya?

[geekyorangefox]

Uh, what happened to you?

[Seriously, what the heck happened?]

[legday]

... Nothing? Other than this whole "roleplaying" thing. Why? Do I have something on my face?

Poor Knuckles, Sonic cast is confusing~

[geekyorangefox]

No, it's just...

You're huge. And you didn't have the white wraps before either.

[wind_contractor]

[Sigh. Why is Mun paying attention to this red animal guy? Who is he, anyway? (Kazuma, you should get into video gaming at some point, dude.)

Well, whatever, he seems to be going about the Mun-Muse relationship the wrong way. Okay, sure; Kazuma will help him understand in the way he would know how to explain it.]

I think your Mun worded this wrong. Mun is himself, or herself, and is responsible for what you're going to do around here.

No chart necessary. Muns can either be guides or tricksters. Mine tends to be a little of both.

[legday]

Ohhh! So he gets to boss me around. Got it!

... Hey, wait, why does he get to be the boss? I'm way more qualified than he is!

[wind_contractor]

[The poor newb. He has no idea what’s going on, or so that’s how he notes to himself while listening to him.]

Muns pick us because they like us for some reason or other. Think they can do whatever they want with us. They think they can pick and choose any kind of situation.

It’s not like we can ditch ‘em either.

Luckily for me, my Mun doesn’t have me do much of anything I’d rather not deal with. Not exactly bossy with me, so we get along fine... Can’t say the same for the dozens of others I know she has, in this messed up Headspace Nexus, but at least most of us can’t complain much about the interesting people we’ve met.

I have to let her meet Knuckles, because...

[beyondthenorms]

Hi! You must be Knuckles. [This nice young lady beams at a familiar face she's seen on TV and computer screens years back, most definitely before her life got to be so beyond ordinary. She manages not to chuckle at the "Am I you" bit he says, though she does smile. Haha she found that a little amusing.] I take it you must be new to the whole RP thing.

Yeaaaah, all that takes a while to adjust to. Especially whenever Muns get really mean.

I know about you, 'cause I've met Sonic before. Twice, actually. [Insert harmless shrug here.] Heard about you through him a long time ago.

[How she knows of him would be a slight manipulation of the truth.]

[shoulda_toined]

Don't worry about it, bub. It's all pretendy fun times. Just do whatever it is ya always do and you'll be fine.
