There's a very good reason for Shadow to have not noticed Sonic! The blue hedgehog was currently napping, wearing a thick jacket and wrapped in a snow covered blanket at the base of the flower. How long had he been here? Who knows! Long enough for his footprints to have been covered up by snow, at least.

The sound of something hitting the ground makes him stir, and he peeks out form under his blanket. A split second later he's launched himself off the ground, the blanket tossed into the air haphazardly to free up his arms. Said arms were, of course, slung around Shadow from behind with no warning, and the force with which he'd slammed into him was more than likely enough to knock his ass over in his disoriented state. He'll apologize later.

Sucks to be you, nerd.

He's quick to notice that Shadow isn't uuuuuh, reacting at all. He quickly pushes himself off of Shadow and rolls him over, quickly retrieves his blanket from wherever it had landed and knocks the snow off before returning to Shadow.

"Ah geez, man, I'm sorry. I freaked out, I didn't-- here, can you sit up?"

He takes one of Shadow's arms and tries to tug him into a sitting position. Snow sucks dude oops.

Hey that sucks??? Sonic quickly wraps that blanket around Shadow's shoulders and rubs at his arms to try to warm him up. There's more going on here than just Shadow being cold, though.

"I was about to start yellin' about how much it sucked without you here, buuuut I'm just gonna put that on the backburner. What happened, dude? You look like hell."

I'm fine is obviously bullshit, come on.

The implications of that take a second to sink in. Sonic's expression shifts from confused to disbelief to horrified, words are completely failing him because he'd never considered that the good guys could actually fail. It's a lot to hear, but it's got to be so much worse for Shadow.

He doesn't ask him to elaborate, can't think of anything to say, all he can manage in the moment is wrapping his arms securely around Shadow and pulling him into a tight hug. What the fuck, man.

He can deal with a little damp fur, even if it is freezing out.

He can't think of a single thing to say. 'It'll be okay' just feels like a lie, how would anyone be okay after their world apparently went poof?

He's hit by a sudden, intense dislike for the Sonic from Shadow's universe for putting him in this kind of position in the first place, but hell tackle all that complicated semi-self loathing nonsense later. For now he holds Shadow closer and rub his back in an attempt to be soothing.

Sonic keeps his hands on Shadow's arms, giving them a gentle squeeze after Shadow pulls away. After Shadow kisses him, he affectionately bumps their foreheads together before rising to his feet, offering his hands to Shadow to help him up.

"C'mon, we should at least get out of the cold."

He's been spending several hours a day camped out here, he is done with all this cold.

"Yeah, you got it."

He takes Shadow's hand and starts walking, deciding to let Shadow set the pace. If he wants to run and make it a quick rip, Sonic will follow. If Shadow would rather walk and take time to gather his thoughts, Sonic's fine with that too.

Once back to the apartment, Sonic tosses the wet blanket into the laundry and hangs his coat up, and then joins Shadow at the couch for a moment. He gives Shadow a quick peck on the forehead.

"I'm gonna go put some coffee on, you want any?"

Look he's still gotta warm up ok.

"...Yeah, okay."

Any other time, Sonic would absolutely give him shit for being a coffee weirdo. Maybe he'll save it for later. For now though, he just nods and heads into the kitchen, putting on a normal pot of coffee for himself and coming back out with a CUP OF BEANS AND A SPOON FOR SHADOW, I GUESS.

"Here we go. You don't want any... I dunno, sugar or anything?"

Never a dull moment with the Ultimate Lifeform.

Sonic nods and silently takes a seat on the couch with Shadow to wait for the coffee to finish brewing. He's kind of at a loss, here. he wants more information, to be able to better understand what happened so maybe he could figure out the right thing to say? But Shadow probably still needs time to process it himself, sooooo. Patience. Not Sonic's best skill, but one he's going to be practicing as hard as he can until Shadow's ready to talk. In the meantime, he reaches over to rub behind Shadow's ear. At the very least he can try to be physically comforting?

Hey bro that's a lot??

Sonic's silent as he tries to make sense of all that, absently rubbing at Shadow's ear in the meantime.

"Wait, you're saying you guys fixed everything, and the Prism just decided to do it's own thing?"

"Sure, I'll check in with him too."

He leans forward, trying to catch Shadow's gaze as he drops his hand to Shadow's shoulder, gripping firmly but not too hard.

"Look. If you can't even tell what caused it, how can you possibly sit there and think it was your fault?"
