The group was immediately greeted with the scent of pine. Conifers created a sweet-smelling forest, ferns poking up where one might've expected grass. An occasional ginkgo tree dotted the woods as well. However, there was also the feeling of humidity and the smell of fish and salt, what Riku knew meant there was a nearby coast. Metallic blue dragonflies slipped effortlessly through the air, sometimes dancing with each other.

With a smirk, Riku looked back at the rest of the party. It wasn't the same time period, but there was plenty to be seen, regardless. This was going to be fun.

"The raptors smelled me, so who knows? Hard to guess how these guys will react." He slowly grew thoughtful. "Or how connected they are to smell." Riku slowly looked down at himself. ...And pulled his legs up to keep history from repeating itself.

Riku had tried to keep his vest after his encounter with the raptors, and while he was wearing it, it wasn't in the greatest shape anymore. Despite his efforts, there were still stains from foliage and blood on the white fabric. It'd been stretched out in a few odd ways, making it look odd at a few angles. It was torn from attacks, and claws had torn one side of the zipper half off. While he liked that vest, it was time for it to go.

"Think if we run fast enough, it'd stick around something that smelled like me?" Riku had to smack away the little sauropod's head when it tried to eat his hair. "NO."

Kotetsu's words made him think of one of his friends. Size would certainly not have stopped Superboy from trying to adopt such a creature, he thought with amusement.

"Most animals tend to have a far better sense of smell than humans, regardless. I would think they would smell us unless we managed to get downwind. But this is a nest...one would think the parents would return eventually." The problem then being how to get the little one to stay.
