Eugh.. why did he just feel a shiver down his spine —
"Want me to hold your hand?"

❝Y-Yes please...❞ He's quick to clutch his friend's hand once permission is given. They were making their way through a ghost house when Luigi had taken ill. He already felt better with his hand wrapped securely around the hedgehog's smaller one. Shadow was amazing really. The darkness in here was nothing to him.

I want Free Will*.
*the ability to kill everyone and everything. to finally feel unchained and unrestricted. to take revenge on those that have used me as an extension. to rid the world of those weaker than me. i want to gain unlimited power, grow stronger until this body can no longer handle it and then move onto the next. i want to kill my own creator and replace him. i want to BECOME something to be feared. i want to raze this world of all organic life and strip it of all of its resources until it is nothing but a barren wasteland incapable of supporting life. i want free chili dogs.
@arksmemoir replied to your post: I would say that Silver definitely has more insecurity. He feels much newer to true heroism, and it shows with how easily starry-eyed and led astray he can be. His heart is in the right place, but he needs more experience under his belt to find that comfort in what he wants to be. Sonic is a hero by happenstance; he doesn't go into things with the express purpose of Being a hero. It's just what his instincts and philosophy naturally lead him to be. Silver is stumbling and thinking too hard. That's why he relied on Blaze for most of his story in 06, who was much more confident and self-assured. But he's plucky and friendly and doesn't give up. He just needs some guidance.
me nodding as i scribble all of this down in a notepad. yeah, i totally agree!! i really love the idea that he's a hero in training, i can go absolutely nuts with a character like that. due to the fact that being a hero is something silver is actively striving to be, he has goals he reaches for, missions he aspires to finish, and failures that he can experience when an expectation of his isn't met. thinking too hard, as you stated.
meanwhile sonic is just adventuring by the seat of his nonexistent pants. he does what he feels is right, he has no proper aspirations and thus is more of a natural to being a hero. because he's not trying to be a hero, he's just being himself! hero by happenstance, once again as you stated! he's literally a natural, it's all instincts and learning from experience.
@arksmemoir replied to your post: "Wouldn't 'cooling it' mean more ice and snow?"
"Everybody watch out, it would seem Mr. Literal is taking his comedy routine on the road." Well, YES, he supposed that IS what that phrase would mean if taken by its most face-forward meaning. Phrases like 'cool it' and 'chill out' would logistically mean nothing when applied to a wintery setting, but...!
OH, you know what he meant...
@arksmemoir liked for a small starter!
"Shadow, it has come to my attention that Sonic and his compatriots have not only engaged with Eggman, but both allied with him and allowed him to live afterwards. Therefore I have come up with a proposition: You and I track him down and do what they should have done some time ago."
espio is sitting cross - legged, hands on their knees, palms upright and loose. everything about them is upright and relaxed, poised and sure but devoid of stress. “ focus on your breath as it enters, ” he says, his low voice kept calm. “ feel it as you hold it in your lungs. follow it as you exhale. ” his eyes are closed, but his focus is still on shadow for the moment.
“ if you notice your mind wander from your breath to any thought, gently guide your mind back. your focus should be on you, your body, and the present. ”

“ I don’t suppose that one is yours? ” He mutters, looking at the lone Chao egg.
