I think he might like that! I mean, he'd probably wanna see how he stacks up in comparison to you, too, but I figure that's just kind of another day ending in Y, yeah?

But I really am glad to hear that. [Sonic rubs the back of his head a bit, an embarrassed chuckle leaving him.] He's become something real precious to me. It's...kinda why I wanna make sure he knows about what the Egghead could do, now, so we can be prepared for it if we end up going home. But I'm real happy with him! Guy really knows how to make me feel light as air, and I never really thought I could feel like that. It's a great way to spend time when I'm not hanging out with friends like Dotty and Charlotte and Yeager!

[But despite Sonic's jubilation, he...kind of does look at Shadow a bit, kind of staring at him and kind of wondering if he really is okay. Sonic's not entirely sure if it's something he's said, but Shadow seems more...tense, than anything?

Hm. Maybe a distraction is in order--]

And you too, once you get used to how things go around here. Now that you're here, I wanna catch up and show you all this place has to offer! Obviously I don't wanna occupy all of your time, but I really am happy to get to hang out with you like this!

[Sonic really does seem happy, and that is a good thing. It's unsurprising that Sonic has made quite a few friends here as well; he's certainly had plenty of time in this strange world, after all. So all of this is a good thing. It's just going to take a little bit to get used to it, Shadow thinks.]

Hmph. You won't occupy all of my time, don't concern yourself with that. For now... show me where your favorite place to eat is.

[Is he going to regret this when Sonic takes him to a chilidog stand? Yeah, probably. But here we are anyway.]

[lovesadventure]

Gladly! It isn't that far from here, actually, come on--

[It's almost on impulse that Sonic offers a hand to Shadow, and he doesn't think too long on why he does. He's just offering his friend a hand up while he goes and absolutely takes him to the local hot dog stand. They make the best chili dogs with the GOOD chili shadow, come on!!!

(Just don't think too hard about the fact that Sonic isn't the one who lets go of their hands, it's fine.)]
