The wind moved softly across the landing platform of The Luminary as the sky faded into a warm orange glow. Roselyn: stood near the edge, her hand resting gently on Tanic’s shoulder. Tanic: shifted slightly (his tails swaying behind him), taking in the massive ship and everything around it. He wasn’t used to places like this. A sharp mechanical whirr cut through the calm. Metal Sonic descended from above (thrusters flaring briefly) and landed with precise control. The moment his feet touched the ground, his glowing optics locked onto Tanic. A scanning beam swept across him. Tanic: stiffened (ears twitching), his posture tightening as he tried not to move. Roselyn: remained calm, her presence steady beside him. Metal Sonic stepped forward, each movement deliberate and measured. His systems processed rapidly, analyzing every detail. Tanic: swallowed, clearly nervous, but didn’t step back. Roselyn: moved slightly forward, not blocking, but placing herself as a quiet point of balance between them. Metal Sonic paused. His systems shifted into a deeper scan (energy readings pulsing faintly). Tanic’s signature wasn’t standard—neither Chaos nor Mobidoll tech. Something unfamiliar… something in between. Tanic: glanced down briefly, unsure, then looked back up. The silence stretched. Metal Sonic stopped. (He tilts his head slightly.) The tension eased just enough. No attack came. No warning strike. Just stillness. Roselyn: gave a small, knowing smile. Metal Sonic stepped back, no longer aggressive, though still alert. His optics remained fixed on Tanic, continuing to observe. Tanic: exhaled quietly (his shoulders lowering slightly), relief beginning to settle in. Part 2 of the friends behind the scenes tomorrow
