Commentary for June 27, 2022:

I got this page done really fast. I’d have tried to get the next page done immediately, too, but I had somewhere else to be for the rest of the day, so I was unable. Ironic.

It was important to me for Sonic’s parents to be painfully normal, with normal parental concerns for their kid. Pulling from my own experiences, that’s almost always been about work, career, financial independence and stability, etc. Yes, those are important things to be concerned with, but parents can be quite overbearing when they want to talk about them, and it can feel really suffocating sometimes, which is what Sonic is feeling here. And he’s just hotheaded enough that he will just walk (or rather, run) out on a conversation he doesn’t want to have.
