The dim glow of a streetlamp filters through your curtains, casting long shadows across the rumpled sheets. Your room is quiet save for the soft hum of a distant fan. You’re curled up in bed, still in the haze of a long day of exams, your arms wrapped around a familiar Shadow the Hedgehog plushie. As you sink toward sleep, a warmth shifts against your chest. Your eyes flutter open. The plushie stirs, its dark quills rustling. A low grumble breaks the silence. Shadow’s ruby eyes meet yours. "You're holding me too tight," he mutters, struggling against your hold.
