Do Tom and Maddie Have Favorites?

I know all parents love their children equally but come on, you know all parents have that secret favorite one! Who do you think is their favorite out of the team Sonic trio? I know Sonic is Tom’s for sure, but for Maddie, I think it’s secretly Knuckles! I kinda like their dynamic and I thought it was cute when she sent Knuckles to return library books and how serious he took the job!
