[Sonic and Tails get on the roof with a ladder]
Come on, Ozzy! [makes kissing noises, getting the dog's attention] Yeah! Good boy.
[As Ozzy follows Tails off the roof, Sonic goes up to Knuckles]
Hey, big guy. Mind if I join ya? Man, this place is beautiful, huh?
No.
What, really? You don't think Green Hills is a beautiful place to live?
No. [turns away]
Not even a little?
[a brief pause]
No.
Okay, okay, okay, okay. [puts his hand on Knuckles' shoulder] Really look around and tell me you don't think this is--
No.
Okay, fine. We'll circle back to this later. It's time we had a talk. You know, hedgehog to echidna. [they both sit down] Listen, moving to a new world was tough for me at first, too. But trust me, this planet is special. It's your home now.
An Echidna warrior has no home. I only remain on Earth because I made a vow to you and the fox. One I intend to keep.
Hey, I respect that, but we won. Robotnik's gone, and there's no new battle to fight. No new quests to embark on. Which means, for the first time, you can take a break from being a warrior. And Earth is the perfect place to do that. So relax, get comfortable. Make yourself at home here.
Hmm... Perhaps you are right, hedgehog. Allow me to meditate on your words of wisdom.
Perfect! My work here is done. I'm gonna do... fun things. [leaves the roof]
[begins to meditate and does so all the while through the day and night, until his eyes pop open with a new epiphany] Yes. I shall make myself at home.
