    Summary

    It happens for the first time when you’re fighting through Ephyra, your axe in hand and the congealed blood of a hundred demons soiling your godly skin.

    You feel it, the whisper of his soft breath caressing the shell of your ear as though he has leaned over your shoulder to admire your handiwork. He has only been this close a scant handful of times; the occasion he picked a dried leaf from your hair after one of your failures, when he touched your shoulder after you defeated Chronos in battle for the first time, the bath.

    “Ten,” Lord Moros says, and the world resumes its pace, your heartbeat thundering anew. “Nine.”

    Summary

    Sonic's been feeling off. Energy buzzing under his skin has him hurrying place to place without explanation, and his dishonesty about how he feels is apparent to everyone ever.

    Summary

    It’d been a month or so since…everything happened—and Sonic’s nightmares had shown no sign of granting him mercy. Sometimes he would jerk awake in the middle of the night in a cold sweat, gasping for breath; other times, his eyes would snap open and he would be gripping his blankets with trembling hands, as if his body wanted to reach out and save Shadow.

    Today, he woke up feeling completely numb all over, his muzzle drenched from fresh tears. The morning sun was just barely rising over the horizon, streaks of light peeking through the circular window on the ceiling and bathing the floorboards of the attic in warm orange.

    How cruel was it that mornings were so beautiful when Shadow couldn’t be here to see it?

    OR: Shadow isn’t dead. Sonic just doesn’t realize it until he catches Shadow on the Wachowski’s security camera, sneaking into the house night after night.

    The first time Shadow had coughed up one of those damned petals, he ignored the herald of death.

    Summary

    Shadow whirled on him. “You think I want to - to fight you all the time? You think I’m okay with this?”

    He slammed the case back in his place under the counter and went around to the sink. Turned on the faucet. Filled a cup. Leaned over it heavily. “I’m not… I wasn’t made for this, you know? I’m supposed to… I'm supposed to..."

    Sonic stared at his back for a moment. Then he slid off his stool, coming around the counter unsteadily. The ringing still hadn’t stopped. “H-Hey, take it easy. You did… you did a pretty good job, I mean, from what I can tell. It doesn’t even hurt anymore. See?”
