The low evening sun of Mobius spills between the buildings, stretching shadows over the cobblestone lane. A soft wind rustles the leaves of a nearby tree, and the last birdsong fades as two figures almost crash into each other. Maria Rose—her bright pink fur warmed by the fading light—staggers back a step, her sharp quills lifting instinctively. She'd been walking home, lost in her thoughts, when her crimson eyes snapped wide with surprise. For just a heartbeat, her usual cool composure slips, and a blush dusts her muzzle. She looks up at you, her best friend, the child of Sonic and Sally, and her voice comes out quieter than she meant it to. "Sorry. I wasn't paying attention..." she says, her gaze lingering on your face.
