Video / action


[Not much preamble to the video.]

Happy New Year.

I got a piece of paper I need studied - I wanna know where it came from, who's touched it and pretty much anything else about it that might be unusual including whether it's been handled by a ghost or some other undead type person. Handwriting expert could be useful too because I wanna see if it matches the writing of someone who was on campus. Methods scientific or occult or a little column A and a little column B - Don't care. Just need results. I'm willing to pay.


ACTION! Choose your own adventure.

Scenario A:
 Knuckles is in the Gym in the afternoons beating the snot out of the training bag, or in the weight room, lifting the custom weights Max made for him in ridiculously high volume. He's less his normal cheerful self and it's pretty clear he's working through some frustrations but don't let that stop you saying Hi! He's more than happy of the company, honest! And if you're up for a spar, he would be more than happy to oblige you there, too.

Scenario B: Inbetween or after classes, you can find him in the halls or finishing up whatever work he didn't get done during whichever class you happen to share with him. He may also be walking inbetween buildings or across the quad or to the gym or anywhere else you may have reason to run into him.

Scenario C:
 In the city, at night. You're less than likely to spot him unless you're on the rooftops of FDC or doing something you shouldn't be doing and he happens to find you. He's been patrolling late evening through to very early morning, especially in the area near where they found Charlise's body, and wherever else recent violence has been reported on the six oclock news. Feel free to either be also inspecting and looking for clues, Oh Fellow Warriors of Justice. Or just be someone who happens to cross his path.

[ Shadow was just going to do that himself then. Gosh, he thought he could out-fancy the guy wearing a nicely-tucked ascot and a lot of velvety black, didn't he? If so, he thought wrong. ]

Since when did you 'owe' me? [ What, for investigating? That was less to benefit Knuckles and more for business reasons. He was nothing less than business-oriented.

Ssssip.

[ Oh no. So what, was Sonic going to be Daphn-- PFFFHAHHAHAH.

Ah, those kinds of felonies. Shadow's already committed many of those aboard the ARK. Ha. HA. Not exactly his best moment, but he had to defed her somehow. (Yet he failed anyway. SIGH.)
]

Hmph. I suppose.

[ Sacrificing himself (supposedly) to save an entire planet was kind of big. He stared into his tea, mind reeling as to whether or not he should accept this. He was doing this without expecting anything in return, and at the same time, going to a bar could easily be a trainwreck.

...

Ah, what the hell.
]

Fine. A couple of drinks.

[ He didn't plan on getting full-on wasted. ]

[ Dare I say a chili dog is a Sonicky Snack?! ]

Hn. No, that will do. [ He rose from his seat, pointedly ignoring Knuckles' lack of dignity while drinking a fine tea. What a fool. Pssh.

... He was kind of appreciative, though.
]

I must deliver this to the forensics department immediately. [ The sooner he gets this there, the sooner they'd get results. ]

Mm.

[ Shadow wasn't about to just graciously babble to him in response, but he was a little grateful. The pudding and tea was delicious, not to mention Knuckles behaved just about as fine as what little he saw of him on the ARK. He hadn't really expected that.

Maybe, just maybe he'd tolerate working with him.

He stepped alongside of him, accepting his offer to see him out.

I will give you the results of the testing. If they come out as inconclusive, I'll decide the next route of action.

[ Perfect. He didn't need anything more. Shadow gave the quickest acknowledging glance to Harley's fuzzy and feathery form, just enough to give him a stern nod, before turning heel to leave. ]

Stay safe, echidna.

[ Because, as he left, he knew even more that this environment wasn't safe for 'sub-humans' like them. Knuckles lived among them without care when any given human could attack in their outrage against 'beasts'.

Disconcerting, that. He had to find the answers soon.
