song for this one! watch?v=HYLTsdeO2uA
here it is! the zonadow v zonourge!
I initially wanted it to be a 'fight over' fic with zonic just being done with everything, but it evolved into fluff.
so, enjoy the pouty scourge XD
it was requested by a (guest) so...enjoy! XD
"This is a horrible idea," Zonic grumbled, glaring slightly at the back of his partner's head. "Speak for yourself," the inmate grunted from the floor; the green hedgehog glanced upward, his blues tired.
The officer frowned at that; it seems like yesterday when he and his partner agreed to take the inmate in as a new 'rehabilitation' project.
Though, in truth, his ebony partner learned of the abuse the other took in the prison for merely being a 'Sonic'.
The cerulean male shouldn't have been surprised when his partner demanded they do something...He just didn't think it would've came to this.
Now, here they were, prisoner on home arrest in their apartment; on the ground because he refused to sleep on the couch.
It became even more tricky when the two started...feeling things for the other and vise versa.
At least he was 'attempting' to better himself.
"I suppose I am, since I'm the only one objecting to this," blue huffed, his arms crossed over his chest.
For once, the sharp uniform wasn't on the officer. A comfy shirt and loose pants in their place; without his helmet, obvious bags were evident beneath his emerald eyes.
"Zonic, what do you have against movie nights and snuggles?," Zhadow asked from their kitchen doorway.
The crimson striped male seemed to pout at his partner.
"You always do this and change your mind during the snuggles so...Why fight it?"
The blue hedgehog huffed, muzzle burning a dark red as he looked off to the side. "Because you two always say I won't be squished and low and behold I always do!"
"Not our fault you're so damn comfy…," green grumbled from the ground, an ear twitching as he smooshed his face back into the fuzzy rug.
"What if we promise not to smoosh you?" Zhadow asked, smiling as he paused beside the couch; a rather generous bowl of popcorn in hand.
"Don't make promises you know you can't keep.," the azure hedgehog huffed, his muzzle a soft red while his emeralds looked off to the side.
"Can we just start already?" the hedgehog on the ground grumbled, somehow pulling himself off the ground and onto the couch.
His orange jumper getting crinkled as he flopped back down across the furniture.
"Just submit to your fate and deal with it."
"...He's got a point," Zhadow clicked his teeth, reaching over to pull the hedgehog up to allow space.
"After you~" ebony waggled his eyebrows.
"...Such a gentleman…," Zonic rolled his eyes, coming to settle down on the couch. The officer grunting when the inmate flopped back down on his lap with a grin. "You're trapped now~," he growled, grunting when Zhadow pushed him away by the face.
"No you are." he slid an arm around his blue partner and pulled him close to his side; ebony smiling innocently.
"...Why are you two like this?"
"Because he gets you more than me and it's not fair," Scourge grumbled as he crawled back onto the lap. Snapping at the red striped hand that tried to push him by the cheek again.
"Because you're grounded." Zhadow sniffed, quietly eating a handful of popcorn.
"Stop. Just- just let me enjoy a moment..," Zonic sighed as he sat back more. Wishing he could disappear into the soft of the couch.
The cerulean cop flinched when he felt a nuzzle to his stomach," Cut t-that-"
"What? I wasn't kidding when I said you were comfy~," blue eyes peered up, his tongue sticking out with a grin.
With his expression deadpanning, Zonic let a hand rest on top of the verde hedgehog's head. His muzzle burning at the soft purr that followed.
"I second that," ebony growled, rubbing his cheeks against his partner's with a small grin.
"Mmf...you two..," azure grumbled, sinking down slightly between his oddly comfy spot between his partners.
With a small pout, he leaned against his partner in arms; letting himself become slightly crushed beneath his smirking criminal.
Maybe he just fibbed a little when it considered the smooshed sandwich during movie time, he might enjoy it a little as well.
After a moment, Zonic allowed himself to lost in the warmth and lull of his partners and the movie.
Slyly, a peach hand slid over and grabbed a handful of popcorn and moved it down upon the lap he was spread across.
Scourge peered up, smirking at the sight of his blue partner snoozing under and against their shared warmth.
The inmate frowned a little at the sight of obvious bags. He knew how much he had to work but…
"...Hey stripes?"
"Hmm?"
"How much does the warden push onto you guys?" He asked, munching on some of the popcorn.
The ebony officer sighed softly, shifting his arm so he could pull a small blanket over his partner's top. "Well...when he's angrier than usual, he dumps low level missions on us...There's usually quite a bit of them...When he's not angry, we usually have to deal with the higher level incidents. When we do those...it could take weeks to complete." Zhadow sighed, his usually excitable rubies crinkling with faint worry and stress.
"He's always hard on Zonic though…"
"...Do I even need to ask why?"
"You already know why. It's the same reason you were treated so badly before we stepped in to 'rehabilitate' you."
The inmate cringed faintly at that, looking away with faint distress.
"H-hey, that's not gonna happen anymore! You're with us now, you're safe," Zhadow let a hand settle on top of his head. Scratching behind his ears affectionately.
"Y'know I can take care of myself alright...Even better without this damn collar." He grumbled.
"I know kiddo, I know."
"And don't kiddo me."
"I'm technically the oldest zobian here, so shush."
Blues glanced over with a faint hint of sass," Says the one who gets upset if you call him an old man."
"Because only certain people can call me that!," Ebony sniffed, looking away for a moment before a small grin appeared.
The convict snorted softly, settling more on the lap as he sighed.
"...I-"
"I know kiddo. I know." Zhadow sighed, resting his head against his snoozing partner.
"...This is the only time he's been able to sleep." Zhadow quietly stated.
Scourge looked up, a small frown on his face.
So the other noticed it too.
"...Think there's a way to make the warden knock it off?"
"Probably. But with how he is, it wouldn't be easy."
"Well...what if-"
"You know if you share anything with me I have to report it if dangerous." Zhadow looked down, his relaxed rubies becoming stone hard.
"...In theory?"
"...If in theory, it could be a passing conversation of little interest."
"...So…in theory what if the prison got rowdy? And it got so dangerous, that whatever the boss is above the warden demanded for a change?"
"...Good theory...But there's no one above the warden.."
"...What about a mutiny?"
"Is that 'in theory'?"
"Yeah."
"Might work...might cause more chaos."
The inmate huffed, agitated that he couldn't really do much for his partners.
"...But if things were that bad. I'm sure we could make it alright...We just can't handle the stress and damage it would cost right now."
Ebony reached over again to scratch behind the green ears; catching the soft purr.
"I appreciate your attempt though...Relax, things will be better one day."
"I'm gonna find those damn loopholes…" Verde grumbled.
"I know you will." Ebony sighed, resting his head back against his sleeping partner.
They figured as much when it came to the devious mind of their third partner.
How he would use it wasn't clear to them as they would like; but he would show them, at one point.
He'd show them all.
So! With all the outlined fics done, it'll be a little bit until more occur sadly.
But! There's an upcoming special 10 fic story coming! So once that is all done, requests will reopen!
Info on this special is on the "Tell me what you really see" fic at the end!
I hope you'll all enjoy it! I got plans for it! XD
But, until it's all written up, there will a small haitus until then. Let's me recharge the ol' brain juice y'know XD
