First Little Hop

A soft click echoed in my boots. My toes pressed down, and suddenly my little green frame shifted forward! I looked to my left and saw a purple shell with a spiky blue figure standing totally still on its green base. Eager to say hello, I leaned my head sideways and gave the quiet neighbor a light, cheerful tap on its plastic arm. It stayed still, but the cool floor felt wide open beneath us, ready for exploring!
