[ the more and more sonic talks, nothing he says makes proper sense as though he doesn't know where they are or the meaning of why they're here. if he questioned the location then that would have been fine, but being unsure about the hub world, saying things like chao are humans in suits, and more questionable comments.

the hedgehog looks to the side making sure not to make eye contact, but outside his peripheral he can see the hedgehog who looks like sonic, but doesn't act like him properly. he had thought the individual was odd before, but the way he carries himself, what he does and even now the hedgehog showing shadow his paws before talking about how confusing and familiar their surroundings is elicits an annoyed grown from him.

it all goes through one ear and out the other, shadow now looking at sonic properly, and then at his hand indicating the small differences. it feels almost wrong considering it's not something shows so freely, circumstances usually, but was now really one of those times? ]

Sonic. [ shadow calls to the other, capturing his attention to speak in a controlled and obvious tone. ] I don't care.

[ he should when sonic acts so different, nothing he's done so far reminds him of that annoying hero who would take all this in stride. instead, he questions, he points out the differences that he knows but nothing shadow is capable of seeing.

it makes him think what if this sonic... ]

Let's go. The longer we stay, the worse things must get.

[ he's already looking around the "chao garden" as sonic calls it, the humans in suits look identical to a few that he's seen in races here and there, but this to sonic is the real deal. treating them like fantasy and hedgehogs as a sort of special race, this is also very strange to shadow.

with a sigh, shadow runs over to a broken window, jumping through to be outside of establishment. the writing on the billboards are in japanese, but some words are blacked out, spelling out different phrases... some deadlier than others. he doesn't comment on them, but he turns around to see if sonic is coming along. ]

Come on.

[ maybe sonic will realize that even staring at his own body will make him question shadow's, was he aware that shadow at home had three quills in the back and not two? that there was a softness to his features where as the one before him is more hardened and sharp, prepared for anything that happens next? ]
