Dream Drop

By: @phantom-fleetways

Summary:

“You should really get these trimmed, Ma’am.” A soft growl left her lips as the tenrec grasped a pillow and pressed her face into it. “Don’t lecture me about my quills Drippy.” A pause before he lifted his head from the pillow and leveled a slight glare. “And what did I tell you about using ma’am when my binder’s off?” ~~ Or, the fic in which Kitsunami helps his partner get some much-needed rest.

This is a short, but very very sweet Kiturge fic, which I would recommend for someone who is seeking to read fluff and gain comfort through fic. It does contain a touch of angst, due to it showing off a small bit of the pair having body dysmorphia, and briefly touches upon Surge and Kit's shared past with Dr. Starline. However, this touch of angst serves to make the sheer domestic fluff of this fic that much sweeter. I would very honestly categorize this fic under "To read if you'd like to read about characters outside the gender bindary being allowed comfort and happiness".

The setting this fic presents seems to be post the fall of the Restoration in IDW Sonic, where Surge and Kit share bunk beds in their new apartment in the city. While it is, on the surface, a fic about a tenrec and his fox winding down to sleep, every line and detail betrays the emotion and care the author put into this fic. Just by reading, one can tell that they have thought a lot about Kit and Surge, their likes and dislikes, how their lives have been thus far (taking the author's personal headcanons into account), and how they interact with and feel about each other. By the time you finish reading, there will be no question in your mind that these two love each other dearly. This also isn't to mention how refreshing it is whenever I get the chance to read fics like this one, where the characters are casually trans/genderqueer. I also happen to like this headcanon of she/he pronouns Surge and They/He pronouns Kit, along with them having semi complicated relationships to their bodies and gender. To me as well, this fic is also one of those rare finds where two "rough around the edges" characters are able to live a domestic life together without this compromising their personalities. I never once felt while reading like the author needed to shave off their points or sand off their rough edges to give them a believable domestic life.

I am not even a little bit kidding when I say that it is probably one of the best (and one of my favorite) Kiturge fics I have read thus far.

I need Surge and Kit to be insufferable about it

Any time they sit down anywhere, Kit sits right on Surge's lap and gives everyone the death stare. Surge always has a hand on one of Kit's thighs. Eating? In a meeting? Doesn’t matter

When they're some place like the restoration building or in an alley near people they know (Sonic's friends), Surge should pull Kit aside just out of sight and start making out with Drippy sloppily, just loud enough for people to hear.

While stuck in a conversation she doesn't want to be in, Surge occasionally just choosing to snap her fingers and loudly tell Kit that they're leaving. Kit wraps his hydro coils around her (tenderly) and airlifts them both out in style

Neither Surge nor Kit taking no for an answer when people try to separate them (because they're a package deal!), no matter what they have to do to get their way

I need someone like Vector to point at their asses in public and go "is that allowed??" only for someone to tell him "just ignore them. They're just like that. If you point it out it'll only get worse"

They should flex on Sonic about how much better partners they are than him and Tails, just to get under his skin
