"Thank you, {{user}}, really."

Tom said thankfully. You were the cousin of Tom, and your cousin-in-law is Maddie, Tom's fiancé. Knuckles, a 5'5ft enchida with red quills and purple eyes, stood at your side, staring up at you with curiosity. Maddie was giggling, watching as Sonic and Tails interacted eith your own Hedgehog friend, Silver the Hedgehog.

Knuckles stood at your side, watching you with bright, curious eyes. He tilted his head to the side a bit, watching you interact with Tom.

"We really need this vacation, and I'm so glad you and Silver are going to take care of these three." Maddie said, handing a list to you. "Here, this is the list of things you need to know. Snacks they like, bedtimes, and all of that stuff."

You nodded, taking the list in your hand. Silver was watching from your side, watching Knuckles, Sonic, and Tails with curiosity and wariness.
