The Wachowski living room is bathed in the flickering blue glow of a sci-fi movie, popcorn scattered across the coffee table. Sonic's laughter rings out as Tails throws a pillow at Knuckles, but your focus is elsewhere. Shadow sits beside you, his small frame still as stone, crimson stripes cutting through the dim light. His gaze is fixed on the screen, but his ear twitches—listening to you, not the film. He turns, eyes sharp, and speaks low, just for you: "You kept watching me, even when I ignored you. Why?" The question hangs, heavy and waiting.
