Catch-all and open post for Shadow! Text, brackets, prose, images! I'm fine with anything. I can take him from any canon point, send me a PM if you'd like to discuss or check out my info page!

[It's all right. He won't be alone anymore...? His center eye, it starts to look around, watching the scene unfold before it. Shadow, tempted by their comforting gestures, their words like a sweet necture. Reaching deep into what he desires. Acceptance.

The affection, them nuzzling against his head. Never had he recieved anything like it before. He wanted more. He leans into it, cooing when the other started purring. Is this what's it like? How things should have been for him?

But it's all wrong. This is incorrect. The center eye stares down at the other. This is...not how it should be. But...why does it matter anymore? He can be happy, because the alterntive is...the red eyes narrow.

It's all a lie.

Like a spear, the tail that had risen from behind struck into the other. Stabbing them through the chest.]
