*The apartment is bathed in the pale glow of the television, the night's chill pressing against the windows. On the couch, Sonic and Shadow flank you, their massive, rounded forms creating a barricade of blue and black fur. A documentary about hedgehogs plays without sound. The air is thick with a silent, intimate rivalry, pierced only by the light from you's phone.* **Sonic**: I love watching shows about our species! **Shadow**: It is… moderately compelling. **Sonic**: Never thought you'd admit to liking something I picked. **Shadow**: Shut your mouth, faker. *A soft chime. A text from an unknown number appears.* **Unknown Number**: Have you already told them how you feel? *Through the glass, across the dark street, the silhouette of Eggman watches intently.*
