year of silver…. year of silver please sega… unpack his trauma…. pleasee….

[willow-dunno]

I have never watched this show

[marionedde]

thinking about a sonic venom au...

shadow would be venom, sonic would be eddie brock, vanilla would be Mrs. Chen, silver would be cletus kasady and blaze would be frances barrison

possiblities: amy as annie? i don't like annie much but her friendship with eddie is nice

Carlton drake would 100% be eggman. Riot could be metal sonic? not sure

silver would also kinda double as carnage.

and tails would be the priest that appeared for 2 minutes

[perewinklebuzz]

My silliest lil guy

Had sonic on the brain recently

So that splatfest huh? I did my best for you fyre

Also a design concept of three trimming their tentacle after sanitizing and growing it back slowly

[mrdrhenwardhykle]

Sonic Prime Spoilers but if all of the Amy Roses are sisters than Sonaze is incest sorry not sorry/j

[arcsin27]

Woe, shitty photos of tiny shadamy (and implied silvaze) figure skating be upon ye!

That game is really good at letting you metaphorically slam Barbie dolls together, but only if it’s a hetero couple lmao

Bonus: my brother messing around in curling

[shadamyheadcanons]

I swear, I haven't been able to find a single Shadamy fanfic where Knuckles and Rouge aren't paired up, some even delve into their relationship even though they aren't the main characters lol

No stories without Knuxouge, you say? Well, what do you say to this?! It has one entire sentence of implied Wavouge!

Or this one, which briefly mentions one-sided Shadouge?! Checkmate!

/sarcasm

Knuxouge is definitely the most frequent background ship for Shadamy, and it’s not hard to see why. Even in the fandom at large, Knuckles is rarely shipped with anyone but Rouge, and Rouge is almost always put with him, too. As of right now, there are 521 Knuxouge stories on AO3. The next most popular Rouge ship is Shadouge with a distant 196, and if Shadow’s with Amy, then Rouge’s only other options are uncommon polyships and rarepairs. Given that Shadamy doesn’t conflict with Knuxouge, they’re likely to run into each other by sheer probability, especially because Shadamy does conflict with most of the other popular ships (Sonadow, Sonamy, Blazamy, etc.).

And that’s without even mentioning the Knuxouge/Shadamy dynamic.

(I saw a Tweet about this topic and replied with this image. Never thought I’d get to use it again!)

Shadow only has two close friends. It makes sense that the nosy, socially-fluent one who wants what’s best for him would play a sizable role in terms of teasing and matchmaking. And when it comes to fanfics, where Rouge goes, Knuckles usually follows. Knuckles’ next most popular ship on AO3 is Sonknux. They have 348 stories. Closer, but it still can’t hold a candle to Knuxouge’s 521. Even speaking as a Sonknux fan, I was surprised there were even that many, but then I saw 113 of them were posted after Sonic Frontiers was released. Looks like that game convinced more than just me :)

I like Sonouge myself, but Sonic kind of feels redundant in a story like this. He just winds up mirroring Rouge’s role. Knuckles’ personality and friendship with Amy are different and make things more interesting. He’s often seen as an honorary older brother to Amy and he isn’t as open and friendly as Sonic, so it’s feasible that he would be suspicious of Shadow at first, adding in some conflict to counter Rouge’s typical role of matchmaker.

I don’t think I’ll ever delve too much into Knuxouge myself, though. The only other Sonic ship I care enough about to write for is maybe Silvaze, and they don’t mesh as well with Shadamy, so it never feels like there’s room for them. They kind of keep to themselves in my works.

I Was Thinking About A!Silver And Blaze: the post, a/k/a sonic 06 rewrite 2

so i had an idea that In The Bad Future, the chaos emeralds have been lost for so long that they've become hyper-charged from disuse. that's why silver and blaze can use just 2 of them to time travel

two consequences of this are either a) the emeralds Explode when they arrive in the present, causing a chaos energy spike, or b) the present emeralds just appear with them when they travel, which could trigger the investigation that rouge and shadow go on. i'd like to kind of keep the interaction i wrote with blaze and silver being interrogated

blaze is convinced that shadow is the iblis trigger and silver is convinced that it's sonic. they're both wrong. it's still elise

elise is cursed in a different way. she still has iblis sleeping inside her. maybe she just needs to be engulfed by flames? she's fireproof but no one knows it. because you don't just light the baby on fire

i want mephiles to be like her personal attendant. he's been playing the long game by being a crystal bastard in the future and slick and slimy in the present. normal demon guy (this means i must draw him)

i think maybe shadow manages to firmly talk blaze down to convince her that he's NOT the iblis trigger but it takes a bit. he may or may not get lit on fire.

this results in silver's lead being the only one they have, and we follow them around while they chase sonic halfway around the world to soleanna

sonic and elise do have a thing going on. you cannot stop me from making sonelise happen because canon beefed it so hard

i guess i don't know quite how to make it come together yet. but take this scene: silver has sonic in a psychokinetic death grip and blaze has her finger on her flamethrower trigger, but she hesitates, which gives enough time for elise to run in and try and protect him. of course silver immediately drops sonic and blaze is like oh FUCK, but elise parries the flames and absorbs them, and that's what awakens iblis inside her

her curse is a little different here as you can see. but mephiles emerges from the shadows and kidnaps her so they can merge and become solaris together

anyway the gang's gotta come together and split them apart before solaris renders time asunder, and they do indeed do that

they are even able to pull them apart! elise is in a bad way though, as the flames are consuming her, and blaze is the one that takes them from her and synthesizes them with the chaos emeralds. now she has her pyrokinetic powers!

as for mephiles, he's too slippery to kill, so we do have to seal him. shadow in particular is like "i will stick around to kill you as many times as necessary" (mephiles looks like shadow still but does NOT have robot features, not even superficially, implying that the bad future is from a completely different timeline)

anyway. silver and blaze can't go back to their bad future. they're stuck, but they are not so bothered by it. they didn't really have much to go back to. so they learn to live normal lives

blaze gets a princely haircut and dates rouge occasionally. tee hee. i have this image of shadamy going to a GUN formal and rouge has brought blaze as a date. blaze is like "do NOT talk to me about the circumstances that have led me here"

as far as silvaze i think they're off and on. they care deeply for each other and think of each other as family but they have absolutely not explored romantic implications between each other. they'll get there someday, but i think they need more experience with others and then realize "oh we ACTUALLY work. huh"

basically we cut down to a single instance of time travel and smooth out everything else. very simplified plot here

[kittydoremi]

I get the points you're trying to make, and I hope I'm not being rude by pointing some stuff out I disagree with.

But there's plenty of evidence that I showed above that implies Sonic and others remember select things from 06. And Sonic is heavily implied to remember Elise at the end of 06. He wouldn't go out of his way to run past her for no reason. Elise even said he was calling out to her. The look Sonic gives her isn't a look he'd give to a stranger. His smile says everything. He remembers her.

Also I don't think that the sonelise romance should be removed because some don't like it. Instead of removing it, just expand upon it. Develop it more.

As it is in the game, it's underdeveloped. But what there IS of Sonic and Elise's relationship is still sweet. You still see it develop and can tell why Sonic and Elise care about each other. It has potential. And despite people in the fandom being vocal against it, there are still people who love Elise and SonElise and want to see more of the character and the ship. There's enough there to be built upon instead of removing it. Sonic can have more than one love interest.

You shouldn't throw the ship out just because it has flaws. Sonamy has flaws, so does KnucklesxRouge, silvaze, ect.

No ship is perfect

I don't think it's neccesary to make Sonic and Elise's relationship into a non romantic one or a parallel to Shadow and Maria. You can still expand on Elise as a character while expanding on her romance with Sonic.

And also I don't think the Amy glitch should factor in to this at all. It wasn't intended to be part of the game at all. SonElise was the ship that was being more pushed by the game. Yes you have an option to choose Amy, but overall sonelise was the definite ship of the game.

And as far as the twitter takeovers go, I do agree with them being semi canon to an extent. But the thing is that the takeovers themselves aren't canon. They're mostly for fun. It's only when an element from the takeovers makes it into the games is when an aspect becomes canon.

About Sonic and the others forgetting the events of Sonic '06 + The Twitter Takeovers are semi-canons

Okay, here we go... I saw some people mention this answer about Sonic forgetting Elise and being upset about it, and thankful that the Takeovers are "not canon", so I'll share my point of view on that and talk about why the Takeovers are semi-canon! (oh boy a long post-) ~~~~

To start: "But Sonic forgetting Elise is absurd! He was the one who put out the flame with Elise, they both should have known about each other." No. They shouldn't have. From the moment the flame went out, everything was reset and started at the point where Sonic was going through the festival. There was no invasion by Eggman at that moment, Elise was not kidnapped, there were no Events of 2006 EVEN though the game is canon. THIS has ALWAYS been a fact since the game's release. And it keeps gaining strength with new media (Sonic x Shadow Generations and mentions that Sonic make in external media).

And I dare even more, not even Silver should know about the events. But if he knows, it's only him and Mephiles, who was ERASED from existence and ended up in WhiteSpace, the Limbo of Sonic's Universe. (As for Silver, he constantly travels through time, he could be the only one who remembers, but I doubt it a little) But the point here is: The representation of the flame going out at the end of 06 is that everything was rewritten in a new way. Things didn't happen that way and that's it.

"But it's absurd. Sonic would never forget Elise, they liked each other!"

I know that in some way there are fans of Sonelise, but I don't think it's right to support their romance so much when it was rushed and totally done in a hurry to make us get some kind of "emotional attachment" to Elise. Elise was the one who showed the most interest in Sonic, even kissing him (geez...), while Sonic, even choosing Elise in the "Trial Of Love", sometimes the game still throws you to Amy's option in a strange glitch. Which doesn't make much sense since theoretically he "would be in love with Elise."

Elise had the potential to be an excellent character and I still believe in that! She was introduced in an obscure game (just like Silver) and we can't deny that fact. She always couldn't cry because she had sealed the Iblis Trigger in herself, she lost her father and had no mother and yet she was the governess of the kingdom of Soleanna. Have you ever thought how much she could have stood out by working on this issue of pressure that she suffers in a deeper way? Instead of Sonic's entire campaign revolving around a somewhat embarrassing romance, have you ever thought how incredible it would be if it focused on how far the line of our responsibilities goes and the fear of failing everyone? Elise could potentially even be an incredible parallel for Blaze being what she is, even if indirectly! There's the other idea of ​​Sonic and Elise being a parallel of sisterhood like Shadow is with Maria, and that's much more captivating than a romance, and I'm sure we'd get much more attached to her knowing that!

Sonic 2006 and plot holes...

Sonic's campaign is the weakest;

Elise is a character who has potential for much more than what we were given;

the time travel issue has many holes like the Blue Chaos Emerald being with Elise the whole time;

Blaze is in the game and we don't even have an explanation for it;

We're very vague about Silver and his future; So, the fact that Sonic and the others "forget" the events is something canonical since the end of the game and has always remained that way.

Now, about the Twitter Takeovers:

The Takeovers are silly and focused on humor, but that doesn't mean there aren't writers behind them!

(Social Media Manager for Sonic's official Twitter account.) This same script is thought by the entire team, since the company's characters are acting! There is a lot of work behind it, which must be recognized! In other words, the information becomes "canonical", since it covers and gives us answers about things that we don't have in the games yet. It's an expansion of the characters, the universe and the story that hasn't been told or fully explored yet, and that's fantastic! The questions are selected based on what they can probably tell us. Whether it's just about Sonic's fur or Shadow's taste for coffee, or even about the Super Transformations and the relationships between the characters. They are Semi-Canons. They are information that adds to our knowledge as fans, but they are not necessarily real, like Sonic breaking the fourth wall. As a fandom, we have to know how to separate some things! That's what makes the Sonic universe unique. Everything can be considered more clues to add to the franchise, but we need to know how to understand the reasons and whys behind it!

Conclusion

I still hope that if Sonic '06 gets a remake, they'll do a good redemption of it, because it deserves it! And who knows, maybe we'll see more of it in the future?

If you want to comment, feel free, this is an open field for that discussion. Just keep it respectful and friendly! I'd love to read and participate too!

Thank you very much for reading! Sorry for the bad English... Stay determined! 🤍

What’s wrong with silvaze? /gen

kind of implied to have sibling relationship. i also think its boring

[shirubae]

Silvaze ‘06: Part 5 - Finding the Truth

Previously: Silver chose to follow Shadow ten years into the past.

Silver and Shadow arrive just before the failed Project Solaris separates Mephiles and Iblis. It’s now crystal clear that Mephiles was never to be trusted. Shadow pursues Mephiles while Silver pursues his old nemesis, Iblis. The action stage, Aquatic Base, is pretty by-the-numbers.

The Sealing Ritual

Silver’s powers are able to suppress the Flames but not stop it (just like in his future). The injured Duke of Soleanna appears with his unconscious daughter, Elise, and plans to seal it inside of her. He ironically uses the white Emerald, representing desire, to repeal his selfish tampering. Silver pays great attention, mesmerized by the words of the ritual:

Eternal Sun! The flames of fate handed down to our royal family. Fall into slumber with a royalty’s soul!

What impresses Silver most, however, is the Duke’s choice to use the last of his life to seal Iblis away. The Duke gave both his own life and the safety of his daughter to do so, to save the world from his arrogant mistake of tampering with the gods. An implied purpose of the experiment was to resurrect Elise’s late mother, but it ended up endangering all of reality: this again shows the uneven balance between one life and the world.

Silver has an "oh what have I done?" moment. He's been chasing the wrong target this whole time, neglecting the princess when he should have been trying to save her. His entire world, his reason for living, is flipped upside-down.

But he can relate to the Duke - he too has foolishly crossed through time to tamper with things he did not understand. This is what it’s like to sacrifice to save the world, to be a hero, and Silver may have to do the same in order to atone for his foolishness.

At this point, Silver also obtains the white Chaos Emerald. As the blue one represents hope, the white one represents wishes or desires.

Silver & Elise

Silver is entrusted with Elise, the vessel of the Flames of Disaster. She is the girl whom he let get kidnapped so many times - all this time, the true key to preventing Iblis’ awakening was right in front of him. He cradles her in the curve of a tree trunk (remember, nature symbolizes Silver’s hope for the future).

When Shadow leaves behind the Scepter of Darkness, it inspires Silver to leave something behind too: his lucky charm, the Chaos Emerald. Seeing the weight of the world resting on this child’s shoulders, he entrusts this gift to her - she needs its power more than he does. Not to mention its blue (青い) represents naivete, as if Silver is gifting her some of his own innocence in hopes that she can maintain her childhood under such pressure. (Don't forget that the blue Emerald also embodies the emotion of hope, like the blue World Ring!)

As he dives back into the time portal, he is completely inspired to do the right thing and protect Elise.

Blaze in the City

Silver reappears in Soleanna New City, right beside Blaze. His thoughts led him directly to her this time, seeking help rather than rushing around alone. Blaze has been loyally awaiting his return, barely a block from the train station, though she does seem almost irritated at being left behind. Her arms are folded, and that deep blink when she puts her hands on her hips is almost like a sigh.

Blaze suspects that he saw another vision, and Silver admits that he was wrong to hunt Sonic, since he really isn’t the Iblis Trigger. When Blaze casually drops the news that Eggman has Elise again, as if it’s a trivial current event, Silver shows newfound concern for the princess’ safety. Just look at Blaze’s surprise when she learns of Elise’s tie to Iblis!

Speculation: I wonder if Blaze regrets not caring more about the citizens of Soleanna. It could be inferred that she’s not exactly a fan, based on her exasperation at staying in town with all the gossiping civilians. Maybe she realizes she should have done more, had she known Elise was the vessel of Iblis. After all, she would have been present for the surrender.

So now Silver plans to save the future by protecting Elise, rather than playing hitman for a manipulator. He takes the first steps ahead of Blaze again, running, but this time with conscious momentum based on his own knowledge. Blaze’s eyes narrow as she recognizes the change and sees just how serious this is.

Next up: Silver and Blaze team up with Sonic!

Fictober Prompt #1: "I Need You."

Fanfic type: Fanfiction Fandom: Sonic the Hedgehog Pairing(s): Sonamy, some Silvaze mentions Triggers/Warnings: Implied nudity references, brief choking mention, slight murder threat (Don't worry, it's pretty SFW but I'm not taking any chances w/ warnings here)

***

She just grabbed a necklace to wear with her dress, when she suddenly heard a knock on the door, followed by an uncertain, “Hey, Ames?”

Amy froze. The voice was a bit muffled from the other side, but the pink hedgehog recognized it instantly. What was Sonic doing here? Shouldn’t he have been with the other boys in the other room down the hall getting ready with Silver? And didn’t they know the girls would have been even busier still with Blaze?

Getting those two ready for their wedding, with 15 minutes to go, was serious business, and as Blaze’s maid of honor, Amy needed to make sure everything went off without a hitch. This was a ROYAL wedding, after all; every little last detail had to be perfect.

“I need you…”

That voice again. That nervous tone of voice was rather uncharacteristic of her blue hero. He hadn’t said he NEEDED her before. Not like that. What was going on that shook him up like this?

“Can you help me out, please?”

Her curiosity clearly getting the better of her, she was left with no choice but to open the door and meet him there. “Hey…”

“Hey, Amy, I--whoa.”

What she noticed first was Sonic himself, a total mess in his unbuttoned, untucked white shirt and black jacket, complete with a matching set of pants. Even his signature red shoes were nowhere to be found, replaced by a pair of black ones. Clearly, he was not used to wearing these sorts of clothes at all, and despite how uncomfortable he seemed, she still found him undeniably handsome, as always.

Still, she had to stifle back a laugh at his wide eyes and slacked jaw upon watching her walk through the door. Clearly, he liked what he saw, and who could blame him? Amy and the rest of the bridesmaids agreed that the lavender dresses with the lace-up backs that Blaze picked out for them were gorgeous. “Uh...Sonic?”

It took waving her hand in front of his face for him to finally realize what he was doing. Laughing nervously as he calmed down, he held up one of his hands in front of her, which contained a silver necktie. “Sorry,” he answered, a slight tinge of pink spreading across his face as he looked away sheepishly. “Silver wanted us to wear these, and I have no idea how to put this thing on…”

She looked at the necktie, and back at the blue hedgehog before her. So THAT’s why his suit is so messy. “Have you asked anyone else?”

“I would’ve asked Tails, but he didn’t know, either.”

“Okay...um...” She shrugged. “What about Silver? He could help you with his psychokinesis, right?”

“He’s busy helping Gardon get ready.”

“Knuckles?”

“He’d have even less of a clue than I do. And Shadow? Forget it.”

She raised an eyebrow, smirking. “You mean to tell me the Ultimate Life Form doesn’t know how to tie a tie?”

“Oh, he knows. I just don’t trust him to tie mine. He’d probably try to choke me or something.”

“Well, we can’t have that, can we?” she chuckled, as she held out one of her hands. “Okay, I’ll help you.”

The blue hedgehog handed her the tie. As she straightened it out, she noticed the wrinkles in it, coming from the way he was gripping it before. “How many times have you tried to do this?”

His eyes narrowed. “You don’t want to know. The point is, it was annoying. See why I never wanted to do these kinds of things back when we were kids?”

“Yet here you are, a groomsman for Silver and Blaze’s wedding.”

“Listen, it was the right thing to do to say yes when he asked me,” he answered. “Didn’t think he’d make us wear neckties, though. Why not bowties? At least bowties are sorta cool…”

“Hey.”

She put a finger to his lips. “Don’t overthink it. It’s just ‘over, under, pull’. Let me show you.”

All that was left for Sonic to do was watch Amy start wrapping the tie around his neck and let her fingers fiddle around with it. “Over…”

As he watched her fold one end over the other, he had to wonder: where did she learn to do this? Did Vanilla teach her how? Or had she taught herself? “Under…”

She’d sure grown a lot since that day they met at Never Lake all those years ago. She was only 8 years old then, and he was...what, 11? Back in those days, she would chase him around non-stop and hug him so tightly he felt like he would explode. Now, they were 20 and 23, respectively, and HE was the one running to HER so she could (gently) fix his tie.

Standing so close, there were a few things about her that Sonic noticed. Her fingers still remained as small and slender compared to his throughout the years, that ear-to-ear smile on her face still just as charming, those jade eyes still so bright and full of wonder. He wouldn’t have minded her staying here for the next hour, watching her do something so simple, so intimate as helping him put on something fancy to wear, like a silver necktie. Or, perhaps, her off-the-shoulder lavender dress with the lace-up back that perfectly accentuated every curve that Sonic didn’t even know she had until today. Still, it looked like the back wasn’t laced up the right way, and from the front, the dress seemed a bit too plain. Perhaps a necklace could spruce it up a bit...

“I hope I didn’t pull it too tight.”

He looked down only to find that her hands were gone, but a perfectly tied necktie lay in their place. “It’s perfect! But...” He looked back up at Amy. “I think there’s something else that needs to be done…”

“Like what?”

He blushed once more as he asked, “Can you turn around? Oh, and...you might want to hold still for a minute.”

Slowly, she did as she was told. “...Okay?”

The pink hedgehog stood there for a few seconds, turned toward the closed door, waiting for something to happen. Suddenly, she felt the back of her dress loosen as a pair of hands adjusted the ribbon. To her shock, she gasped as she put two and two together:

Sonic the Hedgehog, her only crush since she was just 8 years old, had bent down to his knees and was loosening the back of her dress. “What are you doing?!” she whispered harshly, her own face turning a very deep shade of red.

She could practically hear the smug little grin on his face as he answered, “Returning the favor. Who laced this thing up, anyway? Was it you?”

How much more embarrassing could this get? “Yes,” she replied, begrudgingly. “But don’t even think about loosening it all the way. You let this dress slip off me, and you’re a dead hog.”

He simply laughed. “Ames, relax. It only got wonky about halfway down. That’s as far as I’ll go.”

She breathed a sigh of relief. Meanwhile, the blue hedgehog started tightening the purple ribbon as he finally re-looped it through the right places, until he suddenly let them loosen again. “Hm.”

He suddenly stood back up right behind her, still holding the ribbon in one hand. Looking back up at Amy, he smiled, and pressed his free hand against her lower back, where the ribbon hadn’t crossed. “It works better if you stand up straight,” he said, his voice a little quieter this time.

If her face could get any redder, then it certainly did. “...Okay,” she whispered, less harshly.

He laughed softly. “Good.”

They stood there, wordlessly, as she felt his fingers brush lightly against her back every so often, weaving the purple ribbon back and forth. After some seconds, she heard him mumble the word, “Over…”

She should have seen this coming. He had cleverly used her own words against her back from when she tied his tie. Sonic from 12 years ago would have never done this. He was too shy to even talk much back then. “Under…”

Before long, she felt the ribbon tighten as he tied the last of it into a neat bow. “That tight enough?”

Amy turned back around, swishing the skirt of her dress back and forth, spinning around a few times to see how it held up. The blue hedgehog in front of her couldn’t help smiling as he watched her do a few twirls. “Much better,” she said, her hand reaching for the door handle. “Thanks for--”

“What’s that in your hand, Ames?”

She froze as she remembered the little silver accessory in her hand. “Oh. Right. My necklace. I almost forgot--”

He held out a hand. “May I?”

As quickly as it left, that warm, flushing sensation that effortlessly spread across her cheeks had returned for the third time today as she handed over the necklace. “Sure, why not?”

She turned back around, holding up some of her quills for his hand to place said piece of jewelry around her neck. As soon as she felt the clasp fasten, she heard him say, “Okay, turn around one more time? I wanna make sure it doesn’t look bad.”

Slowly, the pink hedgehog turned around to face him. The distance between them was miniscule, a few inches, at best, but neither of them seemed to mind. All she could look at was Sonic, grinning from ear to ear. “Why are you smiling like that?”

“I know it’s bad to say something like this, but if you ask me…’

That smile only grew bigger as he leaned his head forward for a closer look. “...I think Blaze might not be the only girl at the wedding with all eyes on her today.”

Amy was stunned by this last remark, looking up at him with wide eyes. Was Sonic the Hedgehog saying that she was pretty? In a stunned whisper, she asked incredulously, “You do?”

He nodded, his own green eyes never leaving hers. “I do.”

The distance between them slowly grew smaller, their eyes closing as they inched forward to meet each other halfway, eagerly anticipating what was to come next, when suddenly:

“Sonic!”

Their heads immediately snapped toward the source of the voice shouting out for the blue hedgehog in question. It was Espio, Silver’s best man. “We’re headed down to the courtyard. Let Blaze and the other girls know so we can meet them there for the ceremony.”

He sighed, clearly annoyed by the interruption. “We’ll be right down,” he yelled back, his eyes briefly glancing across the hall before returning back to Amy’s. “Back to business now, huh?”

“Yeah. You go down there,” Amy said, shooing Sonic away. “I’ll rally the girls and we’ll see you all there.”

“Hey.”

She felt his hand grab hers one last time. “Save some slow dances for me at the reception?” he asked. “Pick up where we left off?”

He winked. For once, Amy didn’t blush. Instead, a knowing smile crept across her muzzle as she replied, “Wouldn’t miss it.”
