Smile when your Heart is Breaking and even though your aching.
Under a shady tree not far from some spot between one of the Cafe's and a announcement, or pin/cork board a black German Sheppard is nudging a pretty descent size cardboard/shipping like box into place. There's a quilt mostly covering the top, The smell of cheese crumpets and some other baked goods waft up from inside. There's a medium size dry erase board and marker hanging from a tack outside. With the question, 'What do you do when your feeling down?, In the Dumps or Melancholy? ' She checks to make sure it's secure before hoping inside. An ear twitching or eye mite be visible now and again. But mostly she'd curled up feeling emotionally and physically drained, her head pillowed on a lovely blue scarf. She lovingly rubs her check against the soft cashmere.
Which was on of the last gift's she'd gotten from a dear friend and heart brother and a well loved home made plush mouse, in a deerstalker and tweed outfit. She gently gums at an ear perhaps out of habit or thought between Half heartedly trying to nibble on a snack, and laying a bit listless. Half hoping..she mind see a friendly face or two while the other half doubted anyone would be bothered or care to notice. A part of her trying to hold onto hope another part felt like she was running on fumes. A person could only take so much heartache let alone doing one's best and failing for the most part over and over again.

Her ears twitches and peeks at his answer before gently noseing and turning it over for a moment to write, 'I waits.' on the other side. Before looking back at him almost expectedly.
She gently sniffs at the..She slightly squints..mmh Hedgyhog, yes she liked those. She tended to like most critters though..cept well snakes and such they're rarely nice and hurt peoples and other animals very bad.
She gently leans her head under the palm of his hand. Gently nudging in a 'would like pets please' sort of way. The box was a little high to shake in her position at the moment.
"Pack not here yet." She murmurs lowly. Thinking him a nice sort and trustworthy. She nods softly and then softly warmly, "Woofs." Her ears perking up slightly and wagging her tail. "Friends call me Ash." She murmurs back in introduction, and then paw paws at a spot near one of the pillows in the box. He looks like he could fit after all. Plus there's was room for a least a few other critters and the snacks. She used to love being able to make little like nooks and nests, and or blanket type forts back in the day and when she could now after all.
no subject
His fingers paused though, and his mouth opened slightly in awe as the dog spoke. Was she an alien like him? She wasn't humanoid in posture like he was, but wow! He saw the pawing at the pillow in the box. "Nice to meet you Ash! You want me to come in there with you?" He guessed. He wasn't that big and would fit easily enough.
For once, he moved slowly and carefully as he climbed over the side of the box and shifted to sit on the pillows next to Ash while not disturbing the food. "You got a nice little pillow fort here." He smiled, leaning against her warmth while being mindful of his quills. He resumed petting her fur gently in an idle motion, happy to offer the comfort of physical contact. "So your pack is coming for you? How long have you been waiting?"
no subject
She blinks and looks up at him, and gives him a little shy but warm smile. Various beings reacted differently to that. She tries to see if her paws had an extra digit yet..or..mmh not... She sighs softly. Emotions both could facilitate and make shifting tween them difficult. "And you Sonic, and mmh if ya like." She murmurs and then her tones soft and a wee bit shy. Not wishing to overstep but she liked the little guy she didn't want him uncomfortable.
She smiles softly when he does so. "aww thanks.. I thought it might help a little.." Plus she was semi in a nesting mood. She half-closed her eyes at that after a moment her tail wags a bit. "Mmh, well in the Nexus? a couple of years off and on." She informs him. "Found my Mate..Though..he's out hunting right now.." She informs him. "He a Goldie." She smiles softly certain Dor would like the little blue ball of cute.
no subject
"I'm pretty new to the Nexus. I really like it here." He settled happily against Ash, content to snuggle. It was what he would do with Ozzie back home. Sometimes they even had naps together. "Oh you have a mate? I'm glad you aren't alone. I know how hard that can be." He admitted. "A goldie huh? You mean gold colored or a golden retriever? My best friend Tom has a golden retriever named Ozzie."
no subject
Hopefuly that would change someday.
"Ah..well..Where I'm from we call a lot of places Realms. But some Scholars call my Home World, New Gaia." She informs him not sure how helpful that mite be. "Though lately we've been stuck on one of the Earths in the Town of StoryBrooke Maine." She informs the other being. Canines could get very attached sometimes more easily than others. But Sonic seemed like..a good egg so to speak and she liked him very very much.
He was also cute as a widdle button, and reminded her of a puppy maybe a little older one but still. She nods and listens raptly. "I'm glad to hear it..It's got a lot of kinds of folks." She informs him..Her ears perk up as her protective motherly instincts wake up a little. She nudges one of the containers in offer toward him along with a paper plate and some napkins on top.
She gently nuzzles him with her furred check-in a motherly soothing manner. "Aye.." she smiles softly. "Many packs and mates were separated for a long time by Dark Queen..some still finding each other and healing hurts." She informs the little guy. She smiles more warmly at that, "Aye...erm..both." She replies after a moment and looks a little torn. But she gets a fond look upon hearing about his friends.
She peeks up and sniffs a little before lowering down again. Cautious of whom else was around, but she did want to be honest but not scare the little guy etc either. So she holds her left paw up so he can see. And slowly some of the glamour melts away to reveal a bigger and still wolf-like paw. "Most folks like doggies better..less scared." She starts to explain. She swallows a little as she waits.
no subject
The speedster settled as Ash spoke of her homeworld. "New Gaia. That's a pretty name." He murmured as he listened; all ears. Storybrooke Maine? He recognized the name of the state name but not the town. Still, it sounded pretty cool. He brightened as they talked of the Nexus.
"This place is the first place I can walk around and I don't have to hide!" He said, beaming. "I still need to be careful back home in Green Hills - though a lot of the regular people in town know about me now." He didn't want to cause another power outage that could get the attention of the government again. "Plus there's a lot of other people besides humans here in the Nexus. It's really sweet." He notices the food being nudged towards him and his large ears perked up. "Really? Thanks!!" His high metabolism required him to eat a lot - though he usually opted to take naps to conserve spurts of energy rather than eat his weight in food all the time. He bit into a cheese crumpet happily.
Sonic stilled though at the gentle nuzzle, though he didn't reject the touch - in fact his eyes flickered with quiet emotion at the gesture. It was such a motherly touch that it made his chest ache a little. Remembering similar touches a long long time ago from an Owl with wise eyes. Without a word, he curled an arm around the furry ruff of Ash's neck and rested his head against her fur. He kept leaning on her this way, even when he listened to her speak and do something with her paw.
"Woah. That's neat. So you can change what you look like?" He wondered curiously, not scared at all. "I have powers but nothing like that." He said, impressed.
no subject
She smiles softly, "I've always thought so..there's many pretty places on it." She murmurs and faces she missed. Someday she'd see them again one way or another. She was not gonna give up hope of that. She makes a soft bemused sound. "Aye..I suppose..after seeing some things..critters are easier." She murmurs a little wry. Recalling a few Holiday parties that went a little more then 'Cray cray' as the kids would say.
She listens and nods, yes the regular folks outside their 'bigger on the inside' town. Would no doubt do and have mixed reactions if they ever found out about them. Aal swallows softly, a part of her was always half worried..about what mite happen if unsavory types did? She shivers a little..lab coats and needles no thanks..or worse.ish...big explodey things. She pales a little under her fur . Uh ah nope nope nope, no thank you. She shakes her head and tries to think of something else.
Luckily, mama wolves could get tunnel vision in good ways too. "Aye....welcome." She murmurs her tone warm and fond. Her tail wags quite a bit at this.
She pauses as well and then eases, her big blue for a moment eyes soften before they go canine gold again. She half closes her eyes and gently tentatively wraps a paw around him in kind and a sort of Doggy like hug. One of her dear friends called them 'Snuggle wolves.' and she supposed they weren't wrong. She did like hugs.
She grins slowly at first but then it widens. with a little bemused sound.." In some ways..Ahem, Emotions..can affect it..one way or another..and there are folks that can do all sorts..of shapeshifting and glamour.." She murmurs lowly but in her semi, 'storyteller's voice.' She smiles softly. "Like The Flash?" She asks warmly..yes she liked her Heroes of all stripes..so sue her. Her eyes twinkle a little warmly.
no subject
The speedster continued to gently pet the soft fur under his hands as they talked, enjoying the warm cuddle. It was the sort of touch he received so rarely that he had almost forgotten how nice it was. However when he suddenly found himself partially embraced with a paw - a small shudder brought on by a welling of quiet emotion moved through him. How long has it been since he was hugged? Held like this? The vague memory of the brush of feathers flitted through his mind. He hid his face for a few moments in Ash's soft warm fur to hide any betraying expressions.
Hearing the mention of the Flash though caused his ears to visibly perk up. "You know of the Flash?" He looked at her in surprise, though he kept hugging against her while they spoke. "He's my favorite super hero! He can go super fast like me!" He found himself grinning for a moment. "I have a bunch of Flash comic books back home in my room."
He tilted his head slightly in thought. "It's also interesting that you mention emotions can effect your powers. They kinda effect mine too." He found himself admitting. "When I feel something intensely...and get emotional, I start glowing and sparking with energy. There was one time it built up so much it created an explosion of energy that knocked out power in the pacific northwest. It's what caused the government to send a mad scientist after me. It was a total accident." He added quietly. "I don't have that part under control as much as I'd like. Not like my super speed." He had pretty good control over of that.
no subject
Her eyes hood pleased, she keeps the hug loose but warm so he doesn't feel trapped but also she was not gonna let the little guy go soon if he didn't wish too. She gently strokes his side or back a little soothingly at the shudder. "It's alright."She murmurs softly gently in understanding. "Safe space." She murmurs softly. Whatever he needed that she could provide. "I protect you." She whispers low but fiercely firm. He was her new little buddy now.
She chuckles softly and nods, "Aye..He's even got a tv show in the place we got stuck before finding the Nexus."She informs him softly and warmly. Figuring one way or another he'd like and relate to that type of hero. Especially, Barry, he made mistakes certainly but he was a good guy and did his best to be upbeat even when surrounded by darkness and despair.
And he had his team.. Everyone should have a support group and team in their corner.
"Sweet." She murmurs she rather liked comics/graphic novels or least certain ones. She slightly twitches her nose in thought. She smiles softly.
Her eyes soften and then her brows furl. Something about that niggled at the back of her brain. "Some..things are universal I suppose." She murmurs softly. "Ah I see..ermm..does the dude.." She makes a gesture of a mustache growing outward. "Don't think the one I saw a long time ago was yours though.." She reassures him. Multiverses and all..fun but also sometimes worrying. She curls around him a little more. No one was hurting her Hedgy or his friends/'twins'. Not while she could do anything bout it. Though Speedsters' oft had a string of either luck or got really banged up. But bounced back quickly from most minor things.
She gently tries to nuzzle him. "Some things take time and practice.." Sometimes lots and lots of practice she thinks the latter with a slight wince. She blinks and looks thoughtful. "Could you tell me about it..is it more lighting like or.." She hums in thought. "Flamey glowy?" she asks trying to think how best to describe things at the moment.
no subject
"What? You mean, you know him for real?" He asked softly, eyes wide. Considering the nature of the Nexus, he honestly shouldn't be surprised that comic book super heroes could exist. It made his all ready naturally fast pulse jump at the thought of meeting his favorite hero. He had yet to meet a fellow speedster.
It took Sonic a few moments to figure out what Ash was referring to as he caught sight of the gesture. "No way...are you talking about Robotnik?? He had a 'stache but not as big as what you are hinting at. The government sent him to Green Hills after I caused the huge power outage. He wanted to use my powers to juice up his robots." He curled against her tighter when she did the same to him in a soothing manner. He had the sense that Ash had been sad about something before when he first approached the box - so he could only hope that he was comforting her as much as she was comforting him. Her warmth and touch was doing wonders.
Sonic's face relaxed into a content expression at Ash's nuzzle. He reached up a hand to rub at her ears. "It's more like lightning than fire. Bright blue and crackling. It's like it builds up in my body when things get intense. Each individual quill starts glowing and sparking...and my eyes glow. It's kind of freaky." He found himself giving the soft fur under his head a nuzzle of his own, his large ears twitching. It struck him then how comfortable he was with Ash, whom he just met. Maybe it was because they weren't human. They weren't fully animal - but a mix between the two somehow. It felt natural to return affection this way.
no subject
"Ah..well not personally..But I've run into one of his associates before Jessie Quick." She informs him warmly. Though from what she heard of him etc. Barry Allen seemed a easy to get along with sort of guy. "Though around here it never hurts to keep an eye out..I've seen at least one speedster other than yourself about." She informs him warmly. If she could find one of the Flash Family here though or any other heroes she would love to met and get to know them better. She knew a few of the Marvel' ones after all. She loved being able to help folks network.
She nods and listens raptly, "Probably different then you own..It was quite a few years ago..but..can't be too careful of those..mad genius scientists sorts." She murmurs lowly with a twitch of her nose. She didn't know what was worse someone.. She shudders slightly, using tech like that (which to be honest she was some times wary of things on several principle levels and reasons)..or the wasted potential and abuse of their gifts for evil ends. After all a tool was only as good as the person or purpose behind or who wielded it.
Her ears droop a little, "Funny, some magics interfere with electricity quite a bit." She murmurs half in thought. "Though different types of energy, I suppose." She adds as she listens and tilts her head. "Just him or?.Is he so prideful that he thinks he needs no teammates but his bots." She half asks and sneers a little when she states, 'bots'. Half trying to feel out what sort of person she should keep her eyes peeled for and also...Well if they sent anyone else after him..Though..she understood someone's duties to inspect and asses/deal with problems. And other energies that would come up..Surely..Someone more responsibly and level headed should have been in charge.
Especially when dealing with the possible citizenry. Her right eye slightly twitches a the thought of what a power-hungry man might do to such a sweet little hedgey. She curls round him a bit closer. {mine. pup pup} Her wolf side thinks. Anyone tried such here she'd be likely to try and bite them.
She muzzles him again, she leans into the touch. Yes, that was nice. "Ah..fitting." She murmurs and nods as she listens raptly. She then tilts her head diplomatically. "You be surprised how many magic users let alone heroes of some sort you could have just described..but typically they have hair instead of quills.." Though she supposed it was close enough. Well maybe it could be to some folks who we're new or unfamiliar with certain things. She wished to try and make him feel not alone in this and or in general. She usually did feel better or least it was easier to help deal with other folks problems then know how to fix her own right away.
She slightly points toward the side of her head and left eye. "When something ticks me off royalty mine glow an emerald greek fire green sometimes." She informs him in a soft low murmur.
She smiles softly at this a tender look in her eyes. Her tail wags a little. Wolves typically liked to snuggle in dens like this often. Where as aal often did so on a couch with a book or a movie or someone. Though she only had enough company to do so more recently. She'd missed it greatly and had several stuffed or plush things in her collection. She would really love to do say a movie night or something sometime with some pals.

"Wow that would be amazing." He beamed. "To meet another speedster like me!" He loved going fast and wouldn't want to ever give up his speed - but he had to admit, it was a big part of why he'd been so alone so long. Being so different and having to hide. The idea of being with others like him was astounding.
"The idea that there are multiverse versions of Robotnik is super creepy." He agreed, giving Ash a comforting ear rub at seeing her shudder. "One is bad enough!" He returned the nuzzle when she curled protectively around him. "I think at first he was just checking out the source of the power outage. Then when he realized I was an alien from another planet he got kinda nuts." He shrugged a little. "I didn't want to cause any hurt to anyone. I just didn't want to be alone anymore." He shook his head. "I had to escape my home planet when I was little and hide out on Earth for ten years. I think I was pretty close to losing my marbles too." He added sheepishly. He had to laugh though at Ash's words about magic users. "Hey! Maybe I'm a wizard!" He joked, wiggling his gloved fingers.
"Your eyes glow too huh? Must be a sight to see. Do you do magic besides changing what you look like?" Sonic asked curiously, resting his head against her as he pet her soft fur gently.
no subject
She let's out a breath and shudders. "I know..never the less.." She leans into the pets that was nice. "Being forewarned is forearmed." She makes a bemused sound and leans her head gently against him for a few moments.
"Mmhmm, lots of folks act..skittish at the very least round new and usual things they aren't used to. " She murmurs softly yes she could see both sides of the story..Too a point..Though
even with her wolfie instincts the first impulse wasn't capture or kill it with fire! Maybe study it and try and see if it was intelligent and or say if it could be reasoned with. Or hurt.. Every and anyone or being would lash out if they were lost, hurt, confused.
And say something big and scary came at ya...running..away or hiding..yup.
or fall back and regroup as the lads might say especially her pal Major 'Rex' Steel.
Or..Cap..she sighs softly..and gently muzzles her little hedgey friend again.
"Course, ya didn't sweetheart." She murmurs loving and understanding. "Some folks like to jump to conclusions instead of asking questions. " She nods..yeah she might act a little weirdly or overexcited herself sometimes..Especially if they're was someone she admired or really wanted to talk to about and showed an inkling of the latter. Or heck someone who didn't mind her talking or rambling in general etc. She listens raptly to his tale her yes soften.
"Though most can be as scared of you or skittish as you are of them..especially odd lights and explodey things." She gently cautious and informs. "Least till folks get to know ya." She murmurs and nosing him gently. "Canines tend to be good judges of character..so if..Ozzie is it? Doesn't like someone I'd follow his lead." She murmurs warmly.
She giggles softly, "Well, you definitely channel..energy like most do.." she murmurs warmly. "Can be..Though depends on ..the spell or emotion." After all, she'd seen reflections and mirroring of such in other's eyes and the like. "Some younger ones can have..outbursts or accidental kinds of magic they can't control or least consciously." She informs the wee hedgy. Her wolf was already thinking of him as 'her's' in a way but she was cautious of such for a variety of reasons..She didn't want to scare him off after all.
She half closes her eyes and sighs softly and warm though. "I can..though..some needs special..items or ingredients to ..be potent or be channeled through..and all magic..has some cost to it..or ..equivalent of exchange..Like some things you get real hungry after doing or..Say you overtax your energy and someone breaks your hold..They could knock ya right out or over. " She informs the little hedgey gently and soft. Though the same could be said for an enemy or someone you were sparring or dueling.
no subject
He smiled. "Tom and Maddie are pretty used to be by now though I think I still surprise them." He chuckled a bit. "Maddie is Tom's wife. They let me stay with them in their house. Maybe someday they'll come visit the Nexus." He was tickled pink at the idea he was like a wizard. "Well, whether I'm a wizard or not, I don't think I'll wear any robes. They'd get tangled in my legs when I'm trying to run." He joked, green eyes twinkling. "Though the energy thing is still something I don't have full control of yet. My main concern is that I don't want to hurt anyone or make another reason for the government to come after me again."
Sonic tilted his head curiously as he listened to Ash describe how her magic worked. Magic had a cost? The speedster's only reference to magic was what he had seen in comics or on tv. The way it was described though did make sense.
"Oh, I think I get it. Maddie told me once that I had a very fast 'metabolism'. The way you describe your magic kind of sounds like that. My speed comes at the cost of eating a lot and napping to conserve energy." His grin turned sheepish. "When I was alone, I had to scavenge for food around town and keep unseen so I've never eaten what my body needed. But hey, I'm not slamming naps any! I love those." He laughed and reached for his half eaten crumpet so that he could finish it off while still snuggling against the shapeshifter.
no subject
"Ah..well that's good." She murmurs softly with a happy wiggle of her ears. As she listens raptly crossing her fronts paws for a moment."Well if they do your all more then welcome to come visit my den." She murmurs and makes a mental note to give him directions when she has a spare moment or..show him whatever he fancied if he was still here when Dor got back. She chuckles softly. "Maybe for sleepovers?" She half states half asks.."Or pj parties can be fun I've been to one a while back. " She informs warmly.
She nods understanding, "Practice and patience..mite be key to that..though..you can't say run before you know how to walk dear." She murmurs gently. Though after dealing with ..Mister Bushy Stach she doubts he'd deal well with 'tests' per say..Though she can always ask questions..and see what his feelings, experience and such was or starters. "Sounds..like you'd need a Sonic version..of erm...A Danger Room like the Xmen to train..or.." She taps her chin in thought.."Some such." Or a Speed Lab like Barry and the Star Labs Gang had.
She smiles warmly and nods, "Aye..certain things are very much tied to that. Other things..can be..more complicated." She murmurs even as various ideas she'd like to look into floated about her brain a bit. She'd have to try and get in contact with a few folks though.
Her eyebrows go up and she snugs a little tighter or closer to his side. At hearing this especially. She whines softly and nuzzles him."Poor Sonic..you need to be careful.." She murmurs gently in caution. She gently nudges her container closer to him in offer. Wanting his little tummy warm and full. She smiles softly at his warm laugh her tail wags a little.
no subject
The speedster laughed though at the talk of powers and patience. "I'm not really known for patience..." He joked with a grin. "Though having a super secret danger room sounds really cool! Maybe someday I'll find a place to try and figure out my powers." Especially a place without having to worry about consequences due to accidents. He did understand the value of practice though.
Sonic popped the rest of the crumpet into his mouth when Ash snuggled into him with open concern. He grinned a little sheepishly, not wanting to cause worry. He just felt so comfortable with her that he found himself talking about things quite easily. "It's okay! Now that I'm with Tom and Maddie, food isn't a problem." He reassured. "I still like naps though." He chuckled at seeing the tail wag and gave the shapeshifter more ear rubs.
"Have you been waiting out here long?" He wondered curiously. She had said she was waiting for her mate and her pack. He was more than content though to stay for as long as she wished though for company.
no subject
She hums and tilts her head. "Never too late to learn Blue." She murmurs warmly trying the nickname on for size. She chuckles.."Aye..or least a bigger headquarters." She nods half in thought but heck she wouldn't mind a set up like Charles Xavier had someday a nice house and facilities part at least..not the other..issues. "Well let me know if there's any likely prospects..me and Dor be happy to help ya check things out." She offers warmly and sincerely.
He had heard rumblings..of someone building research facilities..She swallowed thickly sometimes approaching people let alone with only a tentative plan could be daunting..perhaps if she could find a research partner or two. Folks she trusted and who were wicked smart.
She gently rise to nuzzle him again. "Well that's good." She murmurs..Yes little ones and fuzzies were a bit of a weak spot for her. She leans into the pets and her tail increases it's wagging. "Yes, naps good for you. Everyone should take em and have snuggles." Would make the world better off if ya asked her.
She looks thoughtful for a moment. "Not very long today..Dor dor gathering some things perhaps.." She pauses for a moment trying to think how best to word. "Perhaps Sonic come to dinner sometime?" She asks hopefully. "Ever make..smores?" She asks warmly.
So sorry for the long wait! <3
Sonic smiled at the nuzzling. "I'm getting to like snuggles. I just haven't had any when I was on my own. But I do like'em. I had almost forgotten how nice it was." He sighed in a soft content sound. He did look a little surprised though at the invite to dinner. "Oh! That sounds fun." He said with interest, though he was surprised at the offer considering they had just met. But this was food and involved new friends and fun. So he was always up for something like that.
"I've never made s'mores. What are those?"
Re: So sorry for the long wait! <3
She grins at that. Her tail wags a bit. "And anytime..of course..everyone..needs someplace like that." She murmurs especially when one was new at a skill etc. Misfires happened after all..and safety was something to consider. But those in need of practice and otherwise.
She blinks and looks touched and pleased by this with a warm little smile. "I'd be happy too.." As soon as things..got semi back to normal that is. But his presence was helping quite a bit in making her feel better. She gives her new little blue buddy a fond squinty happy look."Am sure we can learn all sorts of things from each other." She murmurs..That's how a good team worked after all.
She smiles softly. "That's good.." She murmurs soft and pleased. "Yes..tis hard..under such circumstances." She murmurs in soft understanding. She blinks..Held her breath for a moment and then let it out softly trying to calm her nerves. Hoping she wasn't pushing..but then..hanging out at a cafe like this at the moment or something would likely be hard to do.
Though there were quite a few various kinds of creatures and critters about..So maybe..There could be one somewhere. "Oh goody." She murmurs warmly her tail thumping a little bit.
Plus she felt more able to protect her little blue friend in a smaller known space. She softly squints and scents the air again. Because one never knew..nor could be too careful. Even if...Most folks she'd run across so far were fairly decent. Key word..Most.
"Ooh you haven't?" She asks softly. "Well there a graham cracker, marshmallow and chocolate semi-melted together like..a um gooey dessert sandwich." She does her best to explain.
