[There's no embarrassment at all about holding Sonic's hand here, and why would there be? After all, this is his wonderful boyfriend who he's going to thrash at all sorts of games today. He follows Sonic's lead, taking note of Sonic's human friend. He's heard of her before, of course; he pays close attention to Sonic's stories about his friends and he recognizes this one on sight. Though he does incline his head slightly at the nickname... "Neokins"...]

You've made quite a few friends here, it seems.

[Hardly a surprise, given Sonic's demeanor, personality, and general behavior, but it's still a little surreal to see in person. Just how many friends does Sonic have here? Neo isn't jealous exactly, as that's a bit too complicated of an emotion for a robot who is barely accepting that he feels in the first place, but it does make him curious. He wants to know more; about all the people that keep his blue blur occupied while they're out doing their own thing throughout the day.

But for now... Neo's eyes land on a certain cabinet, and he wastes no time in dragging Sonic over. It should be fairly obvious what kind of game this is, given the red and blue plastic guns holstered in the front of the arcade cabinet.]

A game that requires precision and quick reflexes. A suitable start, wouldn't you say?

[neo you are literally a robot with perfect aim, you know that isn't fair]
