[Sonic's quick to use his free hand to reach up and grab Neo's shoulder supportively while they walk, his smile a little sad but surprisingly gentle.]
It really isn't a problem. You tried really hard, and you actually made the attempt at it! It definitely sucked, but that isn't your fault. You were definitely doing better than I was, that's for sure. I couldn't even think of one 'cute date idea' you might actually like...closest one I was tempted to try was ice skating.
[Sonic at least seems infinitely more at ease now that he's out of there, at least; no posturing. No weird stares and glares, and more importantly...]
...Honestly, you seemed like you hated it there too, Neo. Kinda felt like we were both losing our minds in the most boring place on earth, huh? I don't even know why the fancypants people go to these kinds of places! Don't they just get bored?
