-- okay, joke's over, guys! Stopped being funny a long time ago! You can come out now!

[Oh dear. Someone's not in Kansas -- er, California -- anymore. Far from it; Hiro has Awakened in the Northwest District, and finds all this nature and trees extremely unusual and disconcerting. He's grimy and confused and irritated and he's trying desperately to orient himself. Where's the city? Where are the buildings or the wind turbines -- you can see those from anywhere.

The little robot following him would be way cooler if it weren't for the aforementioned nature, and the fact that Hiro has to keep shooing it away and interrupting it's welcome message.] I don't need any aid, I need my friends to stop being jerks and cut this out! Can you not-- personal space, buddy!

[He swats at the robot again, muttering dark, age-inappropriate words under his breath and stumbling over the uneven terrain. He's so focused on how irritated he is with his friends, that he almost doesn't see the wild boar snuffling through the underbrush.

...until he trips over it of course.] Hey! Watch where you're--

--o-oh boy.

[End feed.]

So, ah---about that aid?

[Please be anything but 'mauled,' kid---unless that 'anything' is worse!]

[Wing liked the nature. It was nice and peaceful, and he liked seeing new things and creatures.]

[And angry squeal from a boar? That drew him from his meditation and to his feet to go see what was happening. Perhaps the creature was just being...hunted. Now that had taken some getting used to, organic creatures eating other organic creatures, but still, he had to know for sure.]

[Finding a boy trying to not get killed by the pig? Yeah. Wing is stepping in. He tries not to hurt the animal, just sweeping it away with a hand. It tumbles a bit, but isn't injured.]

Are you all right?

Your friends are not being jerks. In fact, I am fairly sure they do not even know you are here.

You still there, kid?

[He won't bother with asking if the boy's all right - at least not yet. If he doesn't answer at all, that will be answer enough.]

[Action okay?]
