[something something that entire hypothetical thread was a huge noodle incident--]
Well--the sentiment remains, at least. I'm glad you've got 'em. [Still, Neo asks about his own friends and Sonic chuckles a bit. There's definitely a lot of them.] Gosh, where do I even start...I mean, I've told you a little about Dotty. She's actually one of the first people I met here, if you can believe it--arrived at the same time we did and started calling me "Sonny" the second she got a name outta me! She's a pretty cool lady. Real nice, knows how to sweet talk just about anyone, and really bombastic. Dotty's apparently a soldier back home, fightin' in some kinda war I didn't ask a lot about; she always looks kinda sad when she talks about it. But she's been trying to teach me magic when she's not keeping an eye out for the guy I'm pretty sure she's got it bad for.
His name's Hubert, but I call him Bert for short. He absolutely hates it. [Sonic snickers a bit.] I don't know him as well as Dotty, but Bert's usually nearby somehow; he looms like it's his part time job, but he's not a bad guy. He just gets this weird look on his face sometimes like he's talking to someone familiar the few times we have chatted, but the guy's pretty alright. And absolutely also has it bad for Dotty.
Who else...Charlotte's pretty great, I usually talk with her when looking for good marks to hunt. She's kind of weird? She acts one way around dudes, but she's a lot funnier in private. I've never bothered asking her about it. Yeager is an absolute blast, but I've never seen that guy take anything really seriously...honestly, you might like the lady who helps out around one of the churches in the winter district? I never caught her name, but she does a lot of indoor gardening. She's a little blunt and not that expressive, but I see her a lot and she's actually pretty kind. Tries to look out for people, too. If you ever see a basket of vegetables at the door, it's usually from her trying to make sure I eat some greens.
[He could go on. He really will go on if not stopped, dear lord--Sonic has absolutely made a lot of friends and acquaintances.]

Yes, I have seen that. I'll have to keep an eye out for her; it's kind of her to look out for you.
[Should he be more worried about Sonic's diet...?? Hmm. Maybe that's something to look into. But as for the rest...]
You've met quite a few interesting people. They all sound very different.
[And very different from Sonic's friends back home. Not that he thought Sonic would simply replace the ones left behind, but it's interesting that they're all so unique.]
Do you think Dotty and Bert [that sounds so cursed coming from his incredibly deep voice] will need your assistance to figure out their feelings? I wonder where we would be if we hadn't had some assistance determining our feelings.
[Admittedly it was kind of a mess, but we got there in the end and that's what matters.]
no subject
Sonic chuckles at that, though. He's thankful he can mostly just wash the vegetables off and eat 'em as is, he has never cooked a day in his life--]
That's kinda the best thing about this place. I mean, other than you, of course. [Smooch on the head~] Everybody comes from such a vibrant, wonderful life, and they bring a little bit of themselves with them here too. It's pretty cool, really!
[Still, that question...Sonic gives it some genuine thought for a moment. On one hand, he's not sure what either of them could do, but...]
You know, they really might. Dotty and Bert are pretty dense when it comes to each other. [SONIC, THOSE PEOPLE HAVE--actually neither of them have a family, but STILL???] They might just need a good nudge in the right direction to actually realize they're into each other. What do you think? I've never tried playing matchmaker before, but it couldn't hurt to try, yeah?
[this is genuinely the most cursed idea ever. sonic doesn't even realize it.]
no subject
You always have looked for the best in others.
[Leave it to Sonic to befriend (and/or date) his rivals... But anyway!! This is a deeply cursed idea that Neo doesn't recognize as cursed either, so here we are.]
I certainly wouldn't have realized my feelings without your assistance. [Or that he even has feelings in general...] And you were assisted by others as well. I'm sure you could help them.
[sonic isn't a fire emblem tactician, there's no way this is going to work out???]
