This is Legs, and he is distressed.
Our protagonist (we have one of those you know, this is a story) on his journey through the woods (what woods you ask? you know, the woods) finds Legs (amongst many parenthetical statements) in this state, distraught!
All of Legs's friends, you see, have swam across the river, but Legs is too scared to try to cross, afraid he won't be able to swim effectively with his big ol' clumsy appendages.

You have a lovely style. I love the little details like the perfect reflection, comic fishes, and dreamy forest background.
I really love that little fox, he's so cute! I want one.
