Would you ever let Ozzie into your whole nap arrangement you have with Sonic? I think that he'd make a great addition.

Yes. Agreed.

I would say he was my "nap buddy" during my stay with the Wachowskis.

Hi Shadow! Have you ever been to a desert? I'm getting ready to go out to the one near me to enjoy the meteor showers that are coming up soon. I'm sure it'll look great from Green Hills too.

I have foggy memories of being on death's doorstep looking for my inhibitor rings in one. Besides that, no.

...

I will look into these meteor showers. I'm aware of a few good viewpoints along the mountains.

Hey, Shadow, this may be a bit personal of an ask, so don't answer if you don't want to, but I'm wondering why you were taught that homosexuality was so awful in the first place? It's one of those subjects that usually doesn't come up unless something happened. So, did something happen way back when for that subject to be brought up in the first place way back when?

I ... don't know. I don't think I can recall anyone telling me that directly.

Blaze, what is your family like in the Sol Empire?

Mother has a tendency to be overbearing. She would destroy an entire fleet if one person had the audacity to look at me wrong. Father was... a little distant when I was smaller. It's a cat thing as I understand it. We are closer now that I can actually defend myself.

[OOC: This is entirely headcanon and based on actual cat behavior.]

In the sol empire, Blaze, did you ever fear the commoners rebelling and your family being overthrown by them in a revolution?

Not necessarily. The Empire is not ruled by tyrants. Mother takes suggestions from the commoners and tries to see how she can make some ideas work to keep everyone happy. Naturally, we cannot please everyone, but so long as most are not suffering, a revolution is less likely to occur.

Do you know Sonic's favorite movie?

If so, what do you think of it?

Oh, "Speed"? I've only been subjected to it several times during my stay at the Wachowski household.

It's a fine film. I can see why Sonic likes it.

you can always hide at a karaoke bar. Sonic would never think you'd be the type to want to sing in a public area.

Despite being over fifty years old, I am technically as biologically mature as Sonic. ... Which is not over the age of 21.

Besides, I would rather hide anywhere else.

If I remember correctly, Shadow's mentioned that you were a big help with his clothes. How did you get to be such a fashion expert?

Like robotics and coffee brewing, through lots of experience and trial and error.

I suppose you could say it was an interest of mine since I was young.
