    Summary

    She's spent forty years fleeing her cousin. Only now does she dare look over her shoulder.

    Once upon a time, Maria Robotnik wanted for nothing... So she thought. Ivo's tantrums seemed a small price to pay for her cushy life in Grandfather's manor on Earth, cured of her illness and the ARK signed over to the government in exchange for their silence. What did a young boy's childish insults matter, as long as the family was together?

    As Gerald was often fond of telling the budding genius: a broken toy is nothing worth pitching a fit over.

    Perhaps it's fate, then, that the Eclipse Cannon requires two sets of fingerprints to fire.

    Be his friend, Grandfather told her. A cruel promise she cannot keep.

    Summary

    “What happened to getting our rocks off? Wasn’t that the initial agreement?”

    Shadow kept his eyes on the floor, posture rigid against the wall.

    “So… you’ve caught feelings.” It felt like an absurd statement. Sonic expected it to be refuted, but it was met with more silence. He chewed on his lip for a moment, observing the crease in Shadow’s brow, then said, “Would it help if I said I’ve got feelings for you, too?”

    “Don’t just say that.”

    -

    An agreement goes awry.
