Sonic feels those tangled, strange emotions--he's sure of it now, that Neo can feel his thoughts, and it makes him want to balk a bit. To force himself to think of literally anything else, but that isn't fair to Neo. That isn't fair to Neo, who's trying. He's trying so damned hard for him right now, kind of like...
There's a vague thought, that this feels similar to the conversation they had after Sonic kissed Neo and tried to actually communicated for once. He's still not good at it, but Neo has always at least tried to listen, tried for his sake. It's...is this fair to Neo, to keep running away from him like this again? After Sonic tried so hard to get him out of his shell...
Neo can likely feel a couple of things at once, in their bond. An acknowledgement, that he knows--and that he's sorry. For many things, really, but mostly for running.]
...I talked to a bunch of people while I was helping them set up the festival goodies. Just...kind of wanting to understand more about this place, you know? I thought it was kind of funny that we ended up getting connected like this, and...
[Voices that aren't his play through his thoughts.
"Awww, you two are so adorable we can't stand it!" "Yeah! Your compatibility has to be easily 100%!"
"Those strings manifest in people with strong bonds, but they typically appear most strongly in those who care for each other." "In those that love each other, mostly."
"Come on, stop trying to act cool about all of this!" "Yeah, anyone can see it with you two. You're in L-O-V-E love, buddy!" "Sonic and Ne~o, sittin' in a tree--"
It's that last one that sees Sonic's grip go into the snow, his entire body language tightening up in response to those thoughts. There's an attempt at communicating what happened, at least, to push him over the edge. It's definitely a lot, but it feels like he's only scratching the surface--it feels connected to a lot of other thoughts, that these brought to the forefront. But Sonic's expression seems drained, and he still can't quite look Neo in the eye despite it all.]
...Truth is, I don't know how true all of that is. It's been making me think a lot about stuff. About...us, I guess.
[It was all simple before. Even after getting all kissy faced and stuff, it felt like it made sense, at least to me. I don't know when it stopped.]

...I really do appreciate it.
