[open] Croc's Wet 'n Wild Garden Party
Croc wakes up, snout in the mud.
It's not a pretty awakening. Tranquilizers just wearing off, his mouth feels like cotton's been stuffed inside of it and his head aches with the force of a hundred angry bees. So he does what any self-respecting beast would do, and roars; it's loud enough to frighten the gaudy birds from the trees and make the geese squawk back angrily. A drake wanders near; it's punted five meters away, and minus a head.
Still sodden and now very angry, he makes a beeline for the river, crashing through the undergrowth and bringing down the particularly weak saplings that had the gall to be in his way.
Water. Cool, and it's still muddy, but it's river mud and therefore acceptable. Croc settles in with his nose above water and waits for the pounding in his head to subside.That may take a while, and far longer for his temper to follow suit; pity the poor soul who ventures near!
