Probably worth mentioning that the relationship between my Surge and Kit isn't familial. It's only barely platonic.
At this point in their story in the AU, they're just forced to get along due to proximity and Starline's insistence. If given the chance, Surge would just ditch him. Which, yes, goes against her purpose as "Sonic's evil copy" as Starline intended, but he also fucked up and only made her want to surpass and kill him, while Kit's been given the "loyal to a fault" trait he thinks Sonic and Tails share.
Kit does want to get along with Surge and does want what's best for her, but he also recognizes that she doesn't care about him and so just kinda keeps his mouth shut unless he has to speak up. Usually she doesn't really care, but if she tells him to shut up he does.

I think one thing that is important to mention is that, in terms of mapping out IDW's events onto this AU, Surge and Kit are still in the "backstory" stage of their story.
They haven't even been field-tested yet. They're still being experimented on and "refined" by Starline in hopes that, one day, he'll be able to unleash them onto Sonic and Tails to gain Eggman's eternal and undying approval.
Though they do sneak out often, but keep on the down low since they don't want to be noticed. Of course, they also don't know that Eggman's perfectly aware of them getting out and he just doesn't care. He lets them continue to live solely because he still has some use out of Starline, and he cares about them, so Eggman will keep them around. For now.
But, that doesn't mean I won't write "out-of-sequence" so to speak! Given how this blog often interacts with plenty of other AU and canon-divergent blogs, I'm perfectly fine with matching narrative timelines with the other person I'm writing with. But certain things will stick around for them as they're central to their characters.
