There's more to it than what their Maria has told him.
He manages to finally look at the other, telling him he is capable. All depending on how he applies it. What...he wants it to be? ...What does he want? These are thoughts he hadn't consider. At least...not since his Maria told him he could be whatever he wants. He watches the other start to move away, but then stop. His ears perk up slightly, confused. Is he expected to follow them?] . . . [He starts to take a few steps towards them, only to stop again as a bird's cry catches his ears. Cries of mourning. The leader had called the herd to join it by their fallen companion. Some still nudging what's left of their own, hoping they would move. Nothing.
Their actions and behavior, how they cry and call for their friend to wake up, causes Shadow to freeze in place. He doesn't have to understand them. It's familiar. This is familiar as well. Like the time before with Tom, and before that with Maria. His breathing gets caught in his throat, the world starts to deafen, his vision getting small. Another life taken unnecessarily. He did it again.]
