Sonic Underground, Gay lover's included?

One evening, as I walked past my son's room, I noticed the glow of the television screen casting a soft, bluish hue across the walls. Curiosity piqued, I gently pushed the door open to find my son engrossed in an episode of Sonic Underground. A smile crept onto my face as I watched him, lost in the world of animated adventure. However, that warmth quickly turned to confusion and then to a sense of discomfort as I realized the scene that was unfolding before us.

My heart sank as I witnessed a moment between Sonic and Bartleby, characters I had always seen as friends and allies, suddenly portrayed as something more intimate. My son, unaware of my presence, was watching a scene that seemed to imply a romantic connection between them. A knot formed in my stomach, and a wave of disbelief and disappointment washed over me. I quickly turned off the television, my mind racing with thoughts of how to address this with my son. As a parent, it was my duty to guide him through the world, but I couldn't shake the unease that had settled within me at the unexpected and uncomfortable turn the show had taken even if it aroused me.
