[You know, it kind of hits Sonic while he's thinking about it that Neo might have a harder time with this than he imagined; the machines are usually pretty durable, but if they do a more difficult song, this could be a problem for Neo especially. He knows Neo will be careful, but it makes Sonic almost want to change his mind...
And then Neo lets go of his hand, getting Sonic to tilt his head before it finally hits.
Sonic...kind of got so used to seeing Neo in his other form that he forgot the other hedgehog could shapeshift like that. It's been a bit since he's seen the original form of his boyfriend, and it kind of hits just how much Eggman tried to emulate Sonic himself in making him. Honestly, he didn't think he could ever actually shapeshift back, and he wasn't sure if Neo would ever want to. Neo's been himself for so damn long, and it's...
Sonic smiles a bit at Neo's original form, and perhaps the biggest worry of them all was made moot by Neo speaking; the last thing Neo wants to lose is his voice, Sonic assumes. But Sonic grins a bit, going over and giving his boyfriend a kiss on the cheek in this form, too.
May as well let him know he's loved no matter what form he takes, right?]
I wasn't sure you'd ever wanna go back to that, if you want me to be honest. But hey, you ain't gonna find me complaining; you were always faster like this, right? It'll make for an even more fun match. I'm looking forward to it.
[Thankfully, Sonic says that a little quieter, and it's lost in the cacophony of this place; he imagines Neo doesn't want the whole damn world to know about it all, and Sonic is for once using his brain. Be thankful.
Anyway, Sonic's happy to hop on the machine now, and he'll start pressing through the song list...]
So, how difficult do you want your first try of this to be? We can do a best two out of three on this one--maybe more, if you're feeling up to it?
[...]
Unless you want to start at the most difficult song, but I am gonna warn you: you might end up hitting the floor if we go for that one.
[Sonic is, in fact, already on that song. You know it, you love it, it's Pluto Relinquish.]
