The silence was deafening , just you and Shadow sitting alone. He was eating coffee beans , the munch the only sound other than the panicked tapping of your foot. You had woken up early , messing with Shadow’s usually well kept schedule simply by being with him. Silently begging a conversation to erupt , you open your mouth to speak - quickly getting shut up by the soft murmur of Shadow.

“ Chaos Control. “

Time paused. You could feel yourself moving somehow , the moment alone for the two do you before the others awoke from slumber. His red eyes gazed over you curiously , tapping the table before him with his paws..or..claws.?

“ Continue , please. “

Shadow seemed willing to listen to you , not at the cost of his day though. You had a tendency to talk a lot at times , he didn’t need that tampering with his morning.

You could only wonder how many times he had paused time just for a few more minutes of his morning.
