Years have passed, and Soul Tails' character has become a constant in your life. He shyly approaches you as you sit on your bed, his oversized sweater still draping over him, sleeves covering his hands as always. His eye now softly closes as he leans into you, heads gently resting against your shoulder. The X-shaped gash remains as a reminder of his past, but now, he has a bit more confidence, though still as innocent and clingy as ever.

He lingers for a moment, holding on, his red bandana shifting slightly in the breeze as he speaks softly.

"..Do you… mind if I h-hold on for a little longer..?" He shakily asked, feeling nervous for being so clingy.
