It's a Technician Thing

Blackmail III

"Tails," the hawk grinned egging the fox closer as they watched Wave revel in the aftermath of glory. Tails did so, suspiciously, and cautiously raising an eyebrow, "We're friends now, yeah?"

There was no hesitation in Tails voice when he narrowed his eyes and asked, "What do you want Jettison?"

The hawk rolled his eyes and held up two fingers, "Okay, number one is for you to stop calling me that."

"…Maybe," the fox grinned, irking the rider slightly.

"And the second…" the mechanic watched suspiciously as Jet retrieved a colourful packet from behind him and handed it to him, "this is a peace offering."

"Sl-slli-et-e Gran-é-" Tails struggled to pronounce its name.

"Slitti Gran Cacao," Jet smirked, as Tails huffed angrily, "The best Italian dark chocolate Spagonian candy in the world. 73% chocolate with minimal sugar intake." he announced proudly, "So I guess culture ain't your strong point?"

The fox rolled his eyes, "Yeah, you know me. It's all techno and engines with me… you're… you're really giving me this?"

"Sure. I don't want to be fighting with someone that's… been making a continuous presence in my life."

"Wait…" he murmured, Tails opened the bag and popped one of the candies in his mouth. When the familiar rush of adrenaline did not come he sighed, but then opened his eyes in amazement, "Oh Gods… these are-"

"Amazing? Fantastic? Brilliant?" Jet suggested.

"Orgasmic!"

Allow for a brief 'WTF' expression before the hawks mouth stretched into a grin, he laughed at the word, actually never having heard someone say that before.

"Wow, do you want one?" Tails asked eagerly.

He shrugged, Just to boost his confidence, he dipped his hand out and scooped one, throwing it into the air before catching it in his mouth. Truth be told he actually preferred white chocolate, but the candy wasn't that bad, "Thanks."

Wave beckoned Tails over, and the fox jumped up from his seat at the side. Jet leaned back on the seats and opened up his phone, ready to upload the gold onto Youtube.

"Wave, you've got to try one of these candies!"

"Okay!"

Wave popped the food into her mouth immediately, just as Jet expected her to, and bit down on it, just as he expected her to, and then she paused… that's right! Just as he expected her too.

"Tails…?"

"Is this… hard candy?"

"Uh, yeah?"

"As in… boiled sweets?"

"Yes?"

"Oh fuck-"

Jet settled further into his seat, waiting for the madness to unfold.

"WHO DID IT?" Shadow the hedgehog was screaming at all the participants, "WHO'S THE FUCKER THAT PUT RAMEN IN MY SKATES!"

Tails rushed up the furious ebony hedgehog and waved his hands in his face, "I swear she didn't mean it! Wave just isn't herself right now!"

"WAVE DID IT?" Shadow roared, looking around for the purple swallow. Then he was abruptly attacked by a blinding flash of violet as Wave latched onto his leg.

"Wave!" Tails bent down exasperatedly, "What are you doing?"

"I was trying to tackle Shadow down, but-You know, being the Ultimate Life Form and all," she shrugged. Shadow shook her off.

"Why were you trying to tackle me?"

"Because I…"

"?..."

"BOMB!" she screeched, successfully tackling both of them down.

After a few explosion less seconds later Shadow pushed her off and walked off, trying to figure out what he was going to do about his shoes.

"Oh my God, Gummi Bears! Do you have gummi bears Tails?"

"No! Stop-Stop doing whatever you're doing!" Tails demanded.

"I have absolutely no-IS THAT A BUTTERFLY?"

"Let's go and take you to the doc-"

"NO! Doctors are the tentacled spawn of Satan!"

Tails growled under his breath, "I was under the impression Bean was the spawn of Satan…"

"Tails! I can't believe you're allowing me to get tentacle raped! You're supposed to be the knight in shining armour!"

"Oh Gods… please don't mention Caliburn, please don't mention Caliburn."

"I once read a story about a King called Arthur."

"No…"

"He looked kind of like Sonic!"

Out of nowhere the hedgehog appeared and pointed at the audience, "I told you! I told you I wasn't dreaming or making up stories!"

"Yes you were," Tails growled, he was getting tired of dealing with delusional people.

"So Wave, what did you think of King Arthur? He was hot right?" Sonic smirked.

Wave giggled drunkenly, "Actually I thought the blacksmith was smokin'."

The fox hung his head in shame, "Is this how I act during my chocolate spasms?"

Storm made his way onto the tracks and panicked when she saw Tails restraining Wave. When she caught site of him she grinned and literally crawled over the fox in an attempt to get to the gray albatross. She made her way over to Storm and sat behind him worried, placing a hand over his stomach carefully, "Is the baby okay?"

"What baby?"

"This morning, you were vomiting and said you had a stomach ache!"

"Have you tried Boss' cooking?"

Jet was too amused to care, but this was caught on by Tails.

"Are… are you filming?" the fox asked incredulously.

"See, the thing is Foxy that Wave switched over my control panel so I slammed into a tree and almost broke my beak. This is my revenge."

Tails sighed, "Gods. I blew up my apartment. I'm not in the mood to deal with this shit."

"But, you've been having mood swings!"

"Boss' been thinking about sending me on a dangerous mission, but he keeps changing his mind."

"Oh yeah? Well then what about the fact that your period has stopped?"

"…What?"

"Jet! You're going to be a mother!"

"…Excuse me?"

Tails and Jet couldn't hold in their laughter anymore and slammed his hands on the bleachers, trying to keep the camera steady.

"Eat your heart out, Wave."

Insane Swallow goes mad at Metropolis Speedway- 17, 374, 497 hits.

"Payback's a bitch, innit?"

xx.d; I felt a little sorry for Jet, you know with all the shit that I put him through...

Jet: Putting me in an unrequited love triangle, pitting me against a fox that's adorable, charming and talented, making me piss myself because of TD, getting me electrocuted, throwing boulders at me, slamming me into walls, making me spend my winners grant on shit I don't need, sheared my feathers, called me parrot/chicken repeatedly, revealed my real name, cut out my tongue-

xx.d; I did not cut out your tongue! That was Welsha-

Jet: Welshscot!

TD: Nice save.

Jet: Thanks. So yeah, you cut out my tongue, and gave me a debilitating case of homophobia. Which I don't have!

xx.d; Good, then you wouldn't mind being a mother. And it wasn't Welshcot, it was… it was Tails D… Was that who I thought it was?

Jet: Don't scroll up and he might go away.

TD: I'm still here guys. So I was wondering if I could have some of those sweets?

*screaming ensues*
