Marco grabbed Espio and held him in a tight feathery hug.
"Stop that, yoi. I told you, you're worth everything," Marco let out a small sigh. He was never going to understand Espio's sentiment on it, but that didn't mean he couldn't try. "You should be with Ace. And I don't care what you think, you should do it for Toby. Not because you don't deserve him, but because you should never put your life on hold for someone else. That's a lot of pressure on them, and it won't make them happy. Toby needs to be the inexperienced one of you two, and that means you need to figure yourself and the universe out more first. And you should do it while being happy, yoi. Of if not happy, as happy as you can get."
Marco buried his face into Espio's scales, "And if anything, what you're feeling now isn't something Toby can help you understand or work through. But Ace can."
