It’s a familiar sentiment. Throwing yourself into the line of danger for someone else? It strikes him as...well, something he would do, honestly. But Tails didn’t deserve something like that.

“Nah. Nuh-uh. No way, little man. I’m sorry, but I can’t just leave ya’ hangin’ like this...I know y’don’t wanna split on old Buckethead, and I get it...but don’t give up on me just like that. We can figure somethin’ out, right?”
