It wasn’t like she had planned coming this way but a part of her knew that Rouge was one if not the best person to come to for this moment. Rouge knew emotions, she gave those ‘I’ve seen things and I’m mature because of them’ vibe while also keeping that air of ferocity to her that had Amy sometimes feeling envy, Rouge found a way, her way to be herself and it was something she was still struggling to grasp at.

So when those words leave the bat’s mouth and her hands are gently yet firmly grasped, she has to keep herself from gasping in surprise when her feet leave the ground and suddenly she’s higher up, eyes ever slightly twinkling in wonder but also relief. However she gives a hollow chuckle at what Rouge says next.

“You sure you want to listen to a sob story?”

he sees that.

' Who knew you could turn a darker shade of red~ ' she coos gesturing for him to come closer.

“I’d say I’m surprised ‘bout this but I’d be lyin’.”

There is a small smirk of amusement playing on his muzzle at the bat’s sudden appearance, almost earning a chuckle of the same nature at her antics in the moment. His tone speaking volumes in the moment. Leave it to Rouge to make a grand appearance in leu of what had been asked.

“I’d say I’m more a soft pink right now, Bat-Girl — “

Bringing himself a little closer to the bat in question. Expression matching her’s in tone in the moment, knowing exactly what she was up to and what she wanted. Not needing it spelled out for him any further.

Reaching out to gently grasp her cheek in his hand before tilting her head up just a bit. Each movement soft and delicate in nature. Without much hesitation, the echidna planted a kiss right against the crown of her forehead.

“...uhh.. w-well, uhm...”

The hedgehog sniffled again, wiping at his snout. He sighed a bit, rubbing t his shoulder now.

“...I-I guess that’s true,” he admitted, seeming to calm down some. He smiled a bit when Rouge scritched at his head, tail wagging slightly.

“...y-you’re right! My family would still love me e-even if I’m not perfect, yeah?” he agreed, his smile growing a bit brighter, although his eyes were still wet. “And they wanna help me, too...!”

The boy would do literally anything for his family, and he felt his heart swelling with gratitude when remembered that they still loved him dearly, despite his flaws.

“Thanks...”

' hey, are you gonna let some idiots who don't know what they're saying because their brain is too small affect the sonic? '

she crooned out voice low and soft, wings curling around the other in a hopefully gentle embrace.

' don't mind them, they don't know what they're talking about. '

Sonic sniffled and hastily wiped at his eyes, as if he didn't want Rouge to see him crying.

"I-I mean-... I just... w-well-"

He bit his lip, trying to figure out just what he wanted to say here...

"...th-they... they're kinda r-right," he mumbled, sounding rather ashamed of himself now. "I'm kind of a... a b-brat..."

He sniffled again and leaned into Rouge's wings, ears lowered.

Curious bat totally not breaking in to hide from a rainstorm. You can't prove nothing.

      today was wade’s day off, so he was at home when the creature came into his house. the bat reminded him of shadow, the only reason that was was because how she was built.
