#but this time tails doesn't jerk back. instead he just snuggles further into them

[very-uncorrect]

When they first started travelling together Tails would run off and hide somewhere whenever he was scared since he still didn't trust anyone to fully protect him and was still scared that Sonic's kindness may be temporary and that he'd abandon him at some point.

One day, after enough time has passed since Sonic took him in, he finally fully realises that Sonic has fully intended to be his guardian since about 2 seconds after they first met

Not long after a super violent thunderstorm rolls in and Tails runs to Sonic for protection, snuggling into him, hiding his face in the other's chest, whilst Sonic is trying not to vibrate in excitement because holy shit his kid finally trusts him to protect him after so long

#whilst petting him to calm him down he accidentally brushed his hand against his two tails #and before then tails was super sensitive to any touch on his tails due to how much they were injured by the people on west side #(and humself in a few situations) #but this time tails doesn't jerk back. instead he just snuggles further into them #and sonic is so goddamn giddy like he trusts me he TRUSTS ME HE TRUSTS ME!!!!!!!!! #sonic the hedgehog #miles tails prower #tails the fox #sonic and tails #tw abuse #tw child abuse #unbreakable bond #cosmic truth #they're brothers your honor #that's his kid #sonic was never gonna give up on him #it's like when the stray kitten you adopted purrs for the first time #dadnic
