[ Shadow is used to getting a variety of less than polite reactions to his appearance, to the extent that he's willing to be glad so long as people aren't hostile or afraid.
But this time, he wouldn't notice even if Blake was hostile or afraid. His eyes widen and his own ears swivel forward, mirroring Blake's own. He's use to regular animals, regular humans, and aliens that looks like hybrids of both, like himself. He's never seen someone like Blake, a seemingly normal human with otherwise very real cat ears.
But while Shadow doesn't care much about being impolite, he does know what it's like to be stared at for an uncomfortable length of time. When Blake offers the CD, Shadow is quick to look down at it. ]
It doesn't.
[ At all, actually. Shadow's not even sure what a CD is. He was put into stasis during the era of cassette tapes and vinyl records, slept straight through CDs and dedicated MP3 players, and woke up in the era of streaming.
But some things still translate. Shadow takes the CD and flips it over, scanning the back. After a moment he rotates the case and offers it back to Blake, pointing at the 2003 in the bottom left corner. ]
This came out in 2003. I know some albums from before 1974, but not anything after it.
