Green Harbor Gang

I'm only doing this to avoid prison. Don't get cozy.

[green-harbor-gang]

This is dumb.

Not dumb! Court mandated! Now c'mon look at the camera-

... Close enough! Introduce yourself, babe~

Do not call me that-

Not quite! That's Shadow, he's great and not grumpy at all, total teddy bear~!

I've literally shot people, Sonic. I've shot you-

Details, details! Okay, well, if you're not gonna set the scene, I will! Welcome to the blog! I'm Sonic, as stated before, that's Shadow, this is his awesome and definitely not court-appointed counselor's mandated blog to connect with people and get more comfortable being a member of society-

You sound like my counselor...

Really? Probably because I'm reading off the discharge they sent with you-

Give me that!

[Welcome to the blog! This is basically an in-character and ask blog based on my "streetrat" or "Oliver 'n Company" AU! It's a no-powers Sonadow AU, be warned. I'll have art sometimes, and sometimes just actual in character blog posts!]

[Art by me btw, background however is from Oliver and Company]

[green-harbor-gang]

Sonic, what's your perspective on the break up?

Heh, you guys know this is Shads' blog, right? I mean...

My two cents is... I fucked up. The going got tough and the... cowardly got going. You guys want the full story you're gonna have to get it from Shads... I'm not gonna break what little trust I've earned back by telling parts of his story he wants to keep to himself. Might have to wait 'till the morning, though. Heh... he's out like a light tonight, musta had a long evening with Knux out on the docks. Didn't know the shifts ran so late, though, weird...

[green-harbor-gang]

Oh are Rouge and Knuckles together? 👀

Yes. They've been dating a couple of years, now- before Sonic returned to the city.

[green-harbor-gang]

Whoops. Struck a nerve there?

I can only vaguely recall the night, but, no. I've no nerves to strike.

Pfft, that's not true. Sonic strikes your nerves all the damn time.

... I. I can't really refute that.

Nope! Now pass me one of them crates, grab one yourself, and follow me so we can get this shit unloaded and get to our fucking lunch break, how about?

[green-harbor-gang]

Ooooh Shadow's gonna have one hell of a headache.

Heh, yeah, probably- oh, hey, speakin' of!

Ughh... why are you yelling?

*Shadow slumps onto the couch, arms over his face.*

Hey Sleeping Beauty, you want anything? I can make a pharmacy run-

No, no, just... no. M'fine. Why... why are you out here?

Uh, 'cause crawling into bed with you last night seemed like a great way to wake up castrated?

...Fair point. Smarter than you look...

Heh, yeah, I try...

[green-harbor-gang]

Take care of Shadow, Sonic

No worries there. I took him to bed last night and came back out to sleep on the couch- and yowch! How does he sleep out here every night? My back's screaming...

[green-harbor-gang]

What does Sonic think to your Saturday night plans?

Think to who's plans? I was out grabbing groceries with Knux, what's been...?

Heh. Well, guess that answers it. Both passed out on the couch, snuggled up like a coupla lovebugs. Should I wake 'em?

...Nah, nah, it's okay. I'll, uh, I'll just toss the bottles out and pick up the glasses. Maybe carry Rouge to you guys' room, and I'll sort Shadow out?

Good fuckin' luck.

... Shad...

[green-harbor-gang]

Does he still love you?

I-... I, I d'n wanna talk an'more..

Think it's time to sleep, hon...

Mm...

[green-harbor-gang]

Do you still love him?

That- mmm, maybe not a good time for that question-

... I... he stopped! I... I never did. I never did...

[green-harbor-gang]

ooo why's sonic stupid, shadow? what's he do that's the most stupid??

Picks at his quills. S'annoying.

Heh, I think they want more than that, Shadsy~

Oh? Fine! Plenty more. Talks n' his sleep! F'gets to brush his teeth, w'nt fuckin' talk to me when he's mad or 'fraid or... 'r tired of- of me...

S'adow...?

Stupid, s'jus' what he is! Hic- dumb... 'y'd'I even like 'im...

[green-harbor-gang]

Shadow have you ever

...

... S'adow?

Shh, they're not done-

... D'n think they can..? Have you ever?

I... prob'bly? Done- done most evers-

Wassat mean?

Why'r'u askin' me?! What are you my- my pr'bation off'cer?

[green-harbor-gang]

You tell them, Shadow!

Who? Sonic? Hic- Maybe I should-

I d'n think you could tell anyone anything just now, hehe-

Shhhhzzz! Could! G'nna!

Get up, then!

Mmmm.... no.

[green-harbor-gang]

Is getting drunk about it the right thing to do?

Pfft. You sound like Sonic. Dumb. Stupid hedgehog...

Shadowww don't start! We were having fun, stop getting sour about your stupid ex.

He is stupid!

Ohhh here we go...

What?! I can say that, he is! He's-! He's insufferable, and he won't get off my case about this damn blog, and! And today! Today when I mentioned going out to find work, do you know what he said?

Hmm, what?

He said "Don't tell me you're planning on running jobs for Ivo again, Shadow-". The- the gall! As if I'd- as I'd ever go back there- as if I ever could-

Heh, you're right there, Ivo would... not react well to that.

No! He would end my miserable life! Pfft, maybe I should go back to running guns, then, if that's how Sonic thinks of me... idiot hedgehog...

[green-harbor-gang]

Psst mod can we send stuff?

[hmmm... maybe! I'll treat it as a case by case basis, how about? Magic stuff ain't getting through, besides maybe for the cast to think you're a bit odd, but normal stuff, maybe so! Depends how I figure I can use it I guess]

[green-harbor-gang]

Out drinking? Oooh what's your poison?

What do you want tonight? Are we drinking or getting drunk?

I don't want to remember this conversation in the next few hours.

Got it. Vodka time?

Vodka time.

[green-harbor-gang]

Drinking alone on a saturday night? God, you're pathetic—

Who said I'd be drinking alone? My access to alcohol is dependent entirely on whatever Rouge's managed to get from the club where she works; I'd hardly drink her stash without her, now would I?

You absolutely would and have, don't lie. Now grab me our glasses, we can at least pretend to be civilized for the first rounds.

Hmph.

[green-harbor-gang]

Are you doomed yaoi

... I'm too sober, actually. That's what I am. I'm going to correct that.
