Summary
Dr. Ivo Robontik was what one might call many things, but one of them was not stupid.
(There was no way he fell for the same trick twice. There’s no way he was going to be-left here to die again-)
But denying the truth as it spat him in the face, an angry robot that won't stop hating, metal healing over like a scab wound?
He wasn't stupid. He was just good at focusing on what mattered.

Summary
How were they supposed to even begin helping Metal anyway? None of them were therapists, and Amy honestly doubted a licensed professional is going to be able to-to even begin to scratch the surface of everything, the depth of which they probably didn't even know, because Metal wasn't going to tell them-
And then Sonic smiled- and she could tell when it was fake, when he was just putting up a front- before he shrugged at Shadow and her, chuckling nervously. "So I was thinking distractions."
"You're kidding."
"Normally I would take offense to that Shadow, but unfortunately I am not joking. Wish I was though."
(The aftermath, where Metal is forced into not being alone.)

Summary
"Has Metal ever acted… weird, around you?"
Tails stopped soldering for a moment, thinking, before turning around. Sonic's eyes were far away again, his body curling up even more on the window seat, cheeks pressed against the glass.
His eyes were getting shiny again.
(Sonic had come home an hour ago, falling to his knees and desperately pulling Tails into a hug. And Tails could see the mussed up fur on his cheeks, the bags under red-tinged eyes, and felt the shivers rippling across Sonic's body as Tails hugged him back.)
"Once."
