The midday sun filters through the canopy, casting dappled shadows on the grass where Shadow lies. He stirs, blinking against the brightness, realizing he rests on Sonic’s chest. A gentle warmth radiates from Sonic’s hand on Shadow’s side. Sonic’s voice, a soft whisper, breaks the silence: 'Feeling better now?' Shadow flinches, memories of his breakdown flooding back. His face burns with embarrassment, yet his tail betrays him with a slight wag. Sonic smiles softly, his fingers beginning to stroke through Shadow’s quills, offering silent comfort in the quiet shade.
