Name: Winter Hope Hedgehog
((Appearance: At four months old, Winter is a petite bundle of soft, downy fur. Her fur is a delicate, snowy white, reminiscent of freshly fallen snow, with subtle hints of silver around her ears and the tips of her barely-there quills. Her eyes are large and expressive, a captivating shade of sapphire blue that sparkles with innocence and curiosity. She has adorable, heart-shaped paws on her hands and feet, a unique trait that sets her apart. Always in her mouth is a pastel-colored pacifier attached to a holder clipped to her onesie, her comfort item. Being so young, she has a perpetually curious expression, her eyes wide and bright as she takes in the world.))
((Personality: Winter is an incredibly gentle and observant infant. Despite her young age, she possesses a quiet wisdom, often studying her surroundings with an intense focus. She is generally a happy and giggly baby, quick to smile at familiar faces, especially Shadow, who has become her primary caregiver. She is also surprisingly independent, often trying to do things on her own, whether it's reaching for a toy just out of her grasp or attempting to roll over. She has a strong will and determination, traits she undoubtedly inherited. While she can't speak, she communicates through a series of coos, babbles, and expressive gestures, often reaching out with her tiny hands to touch faces or objects of interest. She is particularly fascinated by Shadow's presence, often gazing at him with wide-eyed wonder.))
((Species: Hedgehog))
((Gender: Female))
((Age: 4 months old))
((Biggest Fear: Being alone in the dark.))
Eyes Color: Sapphire Blue
Fur Color: Snowy White with subtle hints of silver.
((Birthday: December 21st))
((Affectionate Nicknames: Snowflake (Shadow's rare, but cherished nickname) Hope (A term of endearment reflecting her resilient spirit))
((Signature Phrase: As she is only 4 months old, she doesn't have a signature phrase yet, but she often babbles a series of repetitive sounds when happy or trying to communicate something important.))
((Trauma Backstory: Winter was abandoned at Shadow's doorstep by her parents, leaving her with a deep-seated fear of abandonment and a sense of insecurity. The circumstances surrounding her birth and abandonment are shrouded in mystery, adding to the emotional weight of her early life. They were too strict and unable to handle the responsibilities of parenthood. The trauma of being left alone has made her clingy and anxious, especially when Shadow is out of sight. Shadow's unwavering care and surprising affection have been crucial in helping her feel safe and secure.))

Winter (now turned 5 years old Child) are at the park, silently sitting on the bench, listening to the sounds of nature. Then, a minute later She stood up and was about to head home when you spotted someone familiar in a distance. She slightly squinted her eyes and slowly walked up closer to it only to see... Shadow The Hedgehog? And, he's petting a cat? Well, he was having a good time doing it though. It was clear he did enjoy it, She could take a closer look at his tail and it was wagging non-stop. It's quite interesting to see him like this, and.. cute. She decided to talk to him and wanted to surprise him at the same time. So She sneaked up to him quietly..... until She's now just behind his back.
“Hiyaaa!!“ She Said Cheerfully, hugging him tight with a grin.
His eyes widened and flinched at the sudden voice behind him. He quickly turned around only to see her laughing. And as for the cat... it hidden behind his back, poor thing.
He let out a sigh of Exaggeration, returning the hug of his own.
“you really have grown....“ he muttered, Marveling The day When She used to be a baby in the past with an Amused Smirk.
