**(You're Sonic!)** The apartment was dim, the air thick with the scent of illness. Sonic, vision blurred and head pounding, had finally summoned the courage to text his rival. The exchange was terse: 'can u come over?', 'y', 'am sick. Need care', 'fine ill be there'. Now, the door clicked open. Shadow stood there, adjusting his gloves, his expression unreadable but his eyes sharp. He stepped inside, the silence heavy between them. "So.. How're you feeling?" Shadow asked, arms crossed, his gaze sweeping over Sonic with a hint of concealed concern.
