Subject: WHO BOUGHT ME A HOUSE!?
Warnings:
Nothing for now!

[ The cheerful image of a carnation pink hedgehog suddenly fills the screens of those who own shellphones, a smile that could light up the sun itself lighting up her face as she addresses her current audience. ]

Hi! My name is Amy Rose, and I've been here for a few months now. I don't want to take up too much of anyone's time, but, I just wanted to thank whoever was kind enough to buy me the cutest little cottage!

[ If one squints, they'll be able to see that she is, in fact, sitting at a small kitchen table in the aforementioned cottage, which is still being decorated given... well. She just moved in. Somehow, she brightens even further. ]

This was the sweetest, kindest thing anyone has ever done for me! I have no idea which one of you did it, but I wish I did so I could give you a proper thank you! I understand if you want to stay anonymous... but that definitely won't stop me from trying to figure out who it is so I can at least thank you in person!

[ Amy's all about a good mystery, too; she's been informed that sometime in the near future at home, she'll have a murder mystery themed birthday party. And this, right here, is a REAL good mystery -- no one even died, so, that's WAY better! Her eyes light up suddenly, as she remembers something else she wanted to say. ]

Oh! That reminds me! Now that I have a real kitchen, if anyone here wants or needs something cooked or baked? I'm your girl! Seriously, it's been MONTHS and I've been dying to cook. So, if you need something done, let me know! Ah, but, I'm deviating... sorry! To wrap things up... whoever bought this place for me? Please don't be a stranger. Given you bought it, you know where I live. And... thank you, so much, from the bottom of my heart.

[ Amy bows politely with gratitude, and after a few moments, the feed cuts. ]

Someone who acts like they don't care about others and might even try to be prickly, but in fact they care quite deeply. I think that describes Shadow quite well, especially in this instance.

[heyyourenotsonic]

Actually, that kind of tracks! Shadow has always been pretty nice! Erm, to me, at least.

[ If Espio squints, he might be able to see that her cheeks have flushed just the tiniest bit. Just a little. ]

Well, if it was him, that was incredibly sweet and I'm going to have to figure out a way to thank him!

[stealthpun]

That much, I can guarantee.

[He will NOT spoil her birthday experience because Shadow basically got her tickets to Beyonce or whatever it was

Espio does have an eye for detail, though. And so, he does notice! It leaves him feeling a way he does not have an easy definition for, so guess what he's going to shelve it and never think about it again. Instead: oh ho, what if Amy has a little crush on Shadow, he will support his friends 100%.]

I have no doubt you'll come up with a suitable gift in return.

[heyyourenotsonic]

[ Amy's brain is already trying to go to whatever place it can to figure out something suitable for Shadow. Also, how to actually bring it up without having him Chaos Control far, far away... ]

Hmm, maybe... but what can I even gift someone who gave me an entire house? I'm gonna have to really mull over this one...

[stealthpun]

I don't believe he would want anything extravagant. Even a modest gift might mean all the world. Perhaps one of your cooked recipes now that you have a proper home?

[heyyourenotsonic]

Maybe! Maybe I can try and figure out what his favorite thing to eat is?

[ Other than coffee beans, at least. ]

...Also, don't listen to Surge, she's being crazy. I'm not trying to kill myself.

[ He can take that to whatever context he wants, because SHE KNOWS SURGE WAS YELLING FOR HIM EARLIER-- ]

[stealthpun]

I fully believe you will find something he will enjoy.

[coffee cake? who knows, Espio sure doesn't, he can make One Whole Thing]

Yes, I... took the time to review everything you two were talking about. [or yelling about] If there are indeed spectres, there are methods we can take to cleanse your home. Do keep me informed.

[heyyourenotsonic]

I am going to do my best!

[ HOW ABOUT A WHOLE ASS FUCKIN MEAL he can pack away and stow on his boat-- ]

If there are ghosts in this house, they should be afraid of me, and also, if I have ghost in this house I'm sending them directly back to Surge, right in the coffin they were buried in. Post marked and everything.

[stealthpun]

Then that is enough.

[Okay, that does make him chuckle softly] Absolutely fair. I know you can take care of yourself, but as your friend I am ever prepared to come to your aid as needed.

[heyyourenotsonic]

Thanks, Espio, I appreciate that! Hey... what time does Surge usually go to bed? And is there a way to get under your house?

[ Don't ask questions, Espio... ]

[stealthpun]

If you plan mischief, I cannot guarantee it will work in your favor.

...Regardless, yes, I know the answer to those that I could share in private.

[heyyourenotsonic]

[ Amy gives him a suspiciously angelic look. ]

It's a risk I'm willing to take~

[stealthpun]

Then you will find your answer shortly... once you inform me where your new home is.

[heyyourenotsonic]

I'll private message you~

[stealthpun]

Very good. Then I shall uphold my side of the agreement shortly.

[heyyourenotsonic]

Much appreciated, Espio!
