First Jiggy | [Accidental Voice/Action] | Crappy Intro!

[talontrot]

[It's not every day that you wake up after a particularly good game of kick-the-disembodied-witch-skull-around to discover you are very much not at Spiral Mountain. Or... anywhere you even vaguely recognize. Even if you are a first-class adventuring hero.

Naturally, Kazooie was inclined to blame this on Banjo, because there was no way she'd be stupid enough to get totally lost in her sleep. But Banjo was nowhere to be seen, not even after a good look around with the Amaze-O-Gaze goggles. This was unusual, to say the least - unusual and unsettling. Even if Banjo wasn't exactly the sharpest crayon in the box, it was silly for him to just go off on his own. After all, who was gonna protect him? She was clearly the faster and stronger adventurer - he needed her! What did he think he was doing, going off without her?

But first, to inspect the area, like any real hero. Can't go looking for Banjo without discovering some obvious pathways! ... Which are suspiciously absent from this strange forest she's in. Huh.]

Hey... there's nothing here except a book! No nests of Eggs, Feathers, Notes or anything... What kind of place is this, exactly?! It's weirder than Cloud Cuckooland - at least that had music! [Kazooie scoffs loudly, scratching a claw irritably against the foreign dirt.] And boring... what a dumb place to go to have an adventure! Pah, like the bear would pick anywhere good...

[... Wait, didn't old Winky say something about getting Banjo and Kazooie back in Banjo-Threeie? So this was probably it, huh? (Man, that witch could put herself back together fast.) But Kazooie could live with that - maybe she got to be the main character this time! Or maybe it was like the time she got kidnapped for awhile - only it was Banjo's turn to get kidnapped by the hag, and meanwhile Kazooie could be a hero and kick her butt and rescue the furry lug! Either option was one Kazooie was satisfied with for the time being, even if this was a pretty lame sequel so far. And that meant the book was probably important.

Wait - it's got her name on it. It has to be important. So Kazooie picks it up in her beak carelessly and stuffs it under a wing - if it worked for Canary Mary, it'll work for her for a bit, right?

Then she points herself down the nearest tangle of trees and starts trotting through the forest - so much like Pine Grove on the Isle O' Hags, except... it just goes on forever.]

Man, where's a silo when you need one?

[What the heck is that?

It's a bird. With two sets of wings. Carrying a book.

Oh, must be a New Feather.]

Hey, the village is that way.

Hi fellow video game pal!

[Well, OK, Peach got... a lot of info these past two days and she doesn't know how exactly she should react to those. She got some shoes though, but she's still wearing that white gown they gave her upon arrival. Not really the time to go 'shopping' while she still confused as hell.

And... well, big walking talking bird. Not really a surprise there. She is used to unusual things anyway.]

Hey, hm... Did you just arrive too?

[Things you don't see every day in Luceti: big, talking animals.

Things that totally ping Ven: big, talking animals.

So, of course he's going over to see what's up.]

Hey, are you new here?

[wears-a-torc.livejournal.com]

[You're not alone in this forest Kazooie.]

You're from Cloud Cuckooland? [Really? Really?]

This place is called Luceti.

[Eggman just so happens to be walking in the forest this day, looking for innocent animals to capture for an experiment or two. He's sticking to the path so far, wondering where a good spot to actually enter the forest would be.

But what's this? An animal just wandering around on the path ahead of him. Some weird looking bird. Perfect! Probably kind of big compared to his usual catches, but it saves an annoying trip into the wilderness. Here goes nothing!]

Ah ha! [Eggman begins a full on sprint towards the red bird, launching himself into the air and diving towards it as he gets closer.] Gotcha!
