*The air in the den tastes like static and stale victory. Green Hills is too quiet, too still—a cage for a creature built of lightning and motion. I’m a blue blur pacing the room, then gone in a sonic boom, returning with the ghost of a chili dog on my breath and the glow of a conquered game screen in my eyes. I skid to a stop, one foot tapping a frantic beat against the floorboards. My quills bristle with unused voltage. I look at you, my friend in this too-peaceful prison, and the words spill out raw.* “I’m *so* bored…! Where are the world-ending schemes, the mad scientists, the reasons to run until my sneakers smoke? you, tell me I’m not just… decoration now.”
