See, with this newly revealed information for Sage and Aurora's friendship, love it btw, how did Shadow and Aurora's first date go? Who asked who? Where did they go?

I'm so happy to hear you're a fan of the Luminescent Ladies! 🤩 The first date was very casual, but a hit! Shadow is the one who asks Aurora out and they go to a café and end up spending hours together.

Since I've never fully written out the full Shadora story, bits and pieces of it exist here on my blog but sometimes the details change. But here's a very rough version of how I envision their first date going:

(If you're familiar with my story, you can skip the text in blue)

Shadow has spent the last several decades taking odd merc jobs in deep space in the hopes that he'll run into the woman he fell for years ago, but he never finds her. Rouge eventually convinces him to head back "home," and since he's never failed a goal before he decides he has to replace it with a new one: Get to know and enjoy the planet Maria always wanted to visit. So he heads back and that's where he meets Aurora (she does not know him yet, as she meets him later in her life via time travel). He's pretty certain Aurora is the woman who saved him years ago, but since she doesn't seem to know him he thinks maybe she's been reincarnated or something, he isn't sure. He wants to know her better and find out.

Since Shadow's new goal is to better acquaint himself with the planet he abandoned decades ago and since Aurora knows her hometown like the back of her hand, the two decide that she will be his guide (his 'guiding light' if you will 😉 ) around town. (Shadow doesn't need one. He's the ultimate life form; he's plenty fine exploring on his own. But he considers this an opportunity to do some recon to get to know her better). It mostly starts fairly professional even though Aurora does flirt with him a lot (she can't help it, just look at him!) but Shadow quickly becomes fond of her, and he decides he wants to pursue her romantically.

As they are going to bid each other goodbye after one of their tours, Shadow asks "You have a recommendation for every kind of activity in this town, correct?"

A: "Yeah! What is it you're looking for next?"

Sh: "Something... romantic, but humble. Where one might go for a first date."

And at first Aurora is internally thinking "Dang, so he is interested in somebody." But she dismisses that thought because it's none of her business who Shadow spends his time with.

She's gotten to know him a bit by now so as she's pondering ideas she's taking into consideration that he doesn't like loud, busy scenes and would likely enjoy somewhere more intimate, and she remembers him mentioning that he likes coffee. So she suggests this quaint little café that's on the edge of town.

He says "Very well" and surprises her by taking her hand and asking "Would you accompany me there tomorrow afternoon?"

She's shocked but enthusiastically agrees. He offers to "pick her up" at her house so they can go together, but since even as an adult Aurora still lives at home with her parents, she knows that if Sonic answers the door he will be very wary and likely follow them to see what's going on. She doesn't want the date to go awry before it's even happened lol So she convinces Shadow that she'll just meet him at the café.

Aurora is VERY nervous as she has basically no experience dating. She's only had a "boyfriend" once when she was a very little kid and that was really more of just a crush when she was too young to be dating anyway. She also has no idea why Shadow would be interested in her because she thinks she's pretty boring compared to him. (She even briefly thinks "Oh no, what if this is a prank!?")

But upon meeting him at the café he makes it very clear this is a date, bringing her flowers and being a real gentleman by getting her chair for her and all that jazz. Initially she is super self-conscious but Shadow quickly makes her feel really giddy (Ex: SH: "Wow, you look-" A: "Too bright?! I can tone it down! I just have to bend the light to make my clothes darker-" SH: "I was going to say 'lovely'. Please, don't dull your light for me." A: *Can't help but glow more*)

She very quickly gets swept off her feet haha.

They end up losing track of time and even continue to hang out on the outdoor patio after the place has closed and enjoy the sunset together. Before he gets the chance, Aurora over-enthusiastically asks if Shadow would like to have a second date with her and he warmly says yes.

-----

For the record, I'm always open to y'all's ideas of how Shadow and Aurora's first date would go down. If you want to write your own version of their date and it's completely different, I'd still love to read it :)

prompt --- meeting in prison au (maybe Anakin is serving a few years for crossing the line in defense of his mom and Obi-Wan is a volunteer teacher/lawyer?)

[this is in response to a prompt game i reblogged a year ago, but hey! wanted some dark obi-wan this evening so i'm finally getting around to it!] [warnings for hints of non-con typical for a prison trope fic where one is a pretty boy, also for dub-con and power imbalance] [obi-wan is another prisoner here] [supposedly] [2k]

It’s not actually something one asks here, which comes as a surprise to Anakin. He’d thought—well, he’d always assumed that was just something you traded in prison, like deathsticks and dirty holos maybe. Information, what are you in for.

Anakin had been worried that first night in his cell, mind shuffling through a cascade of concerns and memories and landing on one that seemed inconsequential, stacked as it was against the other contents of his life, but gripped him with a fear he hadn’t felt since he was small. What would he say, when they asked him what he was in for?

Massacre is what’s written on the record. It’s some variation of the truth as well, though Anakin can’t even remember his own crime. Just the sting of the sand, the heat of the dying day, the blood on his hands. Mostly true, though Anakin thinks of it still as justice. Vengeance. The reality of bartering on Tatooine. A life for a life. A village for a mother.

He could say massacre. As far as crimes go, it’s one that carries weight, could earn him a certain amount of respect among his fellow criminals.

But then they would ask him how he did it. He isn’t necessarily small, but he’s hardly a man. Nineteen years old and lanky with it. His master used to assure him that he would grow sturdier with age, grow into his frame.

His master hadn’t even looked at him once during the trial. It had been the security guards on Coruscant who had cut his braid.

So his fellow criminals would ask how he did it, how he killed an entire village of Tuskens when he is nothing but a nineteen year old boy.

And he would have nothing to say. Because being a Jedi…even just a Jedi padawan, even just a failed, ex-Jedi…it would attract too much attention. Too much of the wrong sort of attention. After all, the Jedi Order was probably responsible for half the prison sentences of the criminals here, and Anakin doesn’t think that any criminal would be able to just set that aside. Even if Anakin had barely had a hand in any sort of galactic-wide justice.

Even if the Jedi Order and Anakin don’t exactly agree on what justice is.

So he’d been afraid, that first night in his cell. Afraid and made powerless by the Force suppression cuffs locked tight around each wrist. Afraid that they would ask, that others would find out that he used to be a Jedi and punish him for it. Beat him as if they could beat their captors through him.

But no one asked.

Apparently, information like that isn’t shared or bartered. No one actually seemed that interested. And no one asked that first day. Not that first week. Oh, Anakin was told sometimes what other people did, how they came to be here, the length of their sentence. But only by the criminal themselves. There were rumors he heard about others, sometimes. That was all.

It eases some of the fear he feels that first week, that no one calls him as a Jedi, that no one seems to care about his past.

And with that fear taken care of, he has room to realize something else.

He’s pretty—and those in his cellblock have taken to noticing.

It’s nothing much at first. Lingering stares on his face, his lips, during mealtime. Lingering stares during the communal sonics. Out in the rec rooms. In the yards. He has no cellmate, at least, an empty bunk on top of him at night.

Thank the Force for small mercies.

Lingering stares turn into loud whispers that make Anakin want to scream. Perhaps the Force suppression bracelets smother his connection with the Force, but they do little to dim his Force-gifted hearing. It’s indecent. It’s skin crawling, what they say.

It’s also incredibly useful. Surprisingly so.

“Don’t know why I gotta respect some sleemo’s claim,” he hears from across the yards as he bends down to put the weights he’d been using back on their rack. “Man’s not even in the block and the boy’s mouth’s made for it.”

“You don’t have to,” someone else says in response as Anakin forces himself to keep his shoulders relaxed and low. He feels like prey. A piece of meat, ready for the taking. “That’s your grave dug though. It’s not just any sleemo. It’s fucking Sol who’s got his name on him.”

“Fucking Sol,” the guy repeats with angry passion. “Been here two months and he thinks he owns the place.”

Two months. Where was Anakin two months ago? On Coruscant. At the beginning of his trial. Realizing too late that he’d done something he would not be able to undo.

“--cut off a guy’s arm with a sharpened piece of plastoid,” the other man is saying when Anakin tunes back in. “Cause he was fucking bored. He can own this shithole all he wants. I’m not getting on the wrong side of him. Even for a round at Skywalker’s ass.”

Anakin beats a hasty retreat from the yards after that, though he can’t help but turn the new information over in his head.

He’d been wondering when the heated stares from the other prisoners would turn into attempts to—touch him. It’d been growing as a fear in the back of his mind. Without the Force, his defenses were shot. He was strong and well-muscled, but some of his fellow prisoners could almost certainly hold him down.

But apparently—they won’t.

Because someone else—some mysterious prisoner, Sol—already has first dibs.

The thought makes Anakin shiver, and it keeps him up for half the night.

“You’re up rather late,” a voice murmurs through the cell wall a few hours into his restless pacing. The sound jolts Anakin into sudden stillness. “Oh, no, please don’t stop on my account, darling,” the voice says.

Anakin blinks. That’s a Coruscanti accent, though the prison is located in the middle of nowhere on the edge of the mid-rim. “What do you want?” he snaps automatically, arms crossing as he stares at the wall in front of him. On edge. Prey. Powerless.

“To talk,” the man says. “Obviously.”

Anakin’s eyes narrow of their own accord and he steps closer. “No one’s been in that cell before,” he states. “You’re new.”

“Oh, well done, you,” the man replies in a tone Anakin can’t decide is grating or pleasing. “You’re an observant one, aren’t you, Anakin?”

“How did you know my name?”

“Darling, the whole prison knows your name, I’m sure,” the man says with a chuckle that makes Anakin’s skin dimple. Fear? “Though I would hazard to say I know a little bit more than they do.”

“What do you mean.”

“Your past, darling. Your Jedi roots.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Anakin snaps, even as his heart rate picks up. Jedi. He hasn’t heard that word in ages. He never wanted to hear it again. This man knows. This man knows.

Danger. Danger.

“I can hear your pulse from here, Anakin,” the man says, sounding calm. Sounding amused. Anakin blinks at the wall in front of him. Danger. Danger.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he says again.

“Hm,” the man says. “You’re afraid, I take it. Of others finding out.”

Anakin pinches his lips together, quiet. Silent.

“No need for that though,” the man says, as if this is a conversation between two friends—not one of Anakin’s worst nightmares brought to life. “You are under my protection.”

The words make Anakin’s stomach drop. “Sol.”

“To some,” the man—Sol—agrees. “I’d rather like it if you called me Obi-Wan though. Obi-Wan Kenobi. For now at least.”

Anakin sneers though the other man can’t see it. His heart races even faster now. Sol—one of the most dangerous men in the prison, if not the most dangerous one. Sol—the man whose name carries enough weight that he was able to claim Anakin as his own—what, bitch? What, plaything?---even from another block of the prison.

Sol, who somehow managed to get transferred between blocks, to the cell right next to Anakin’s own.

Who wants Anakin.

For what?

“What do you want from me?” Anakin whispers. He clears his throat, tries again, louder this time and more insistent. “What do you want from me?” “I do think that is for me to know, darling, and for you to find out,” Sol—Kenobi—replies, tone light. Amused still. “But we can start with the simplest thing. Tomorrow morning, during our recreational hour in the yard, I would like you to come to me.”

“No kriffing way—”

“So you would like them to know of your past, darling? I’m sure I could forget myself. I’m sure I could…renege my claim rather easily. If you would prefer a more…brutal touch. Touches.”

Anakin’s skin crawls. The meaning and the threat in Kenobi’s words is clear. Either Anakin does as he is told or the other man will take away the protection currently keeping Anakin unmolested. And he’ll tell the others that Anakin was a Jedi. How many would jump at the chance to fuck a Jedi?

It’s not an option. It’s not a future Anakin would survive. He knows this.

But can he really—submit himself to another man, to this man? This dangerous, cruel man?

“I don’t know anything about you,” he says roughly. “I don’t…”

“You will learn,” Kenobi says, dark promise coloring his words. “I will be beneath the chromometer. Tomorrow in the yard. You will come to me then.”

“Do you wish for me to crawl?” Anakin snarls, anger and powerlessness raging through him. His fist hits the wall between him and his executioner. It changes nothing.

“Did I ask you to?” Kenobi snaps back, voice sharp as a blade. A moment passes. Another. The man lets out a breath and then says, “I do not want a dog, Anakin.”

“Then what do you want?” Anakin asks again, voice breaking under the weight of it all. He has always hated traps. He has always hated being powerless. Imprisoned.

Kenobi is silent as he appears to mull over the question. “I want an apprentice.”

Anakin has no idea what to say to that, and so he says nothing. Kenobi too is quiet. He remains so for the rest of the night.

In the morning, when Anakin is released from his cell after a sleepless night, he looks automatically to his left, but the door to Kenobi’s cell stays shut with no indication that there’s anyone in there.

He comforts himself with the thought that perhaps he imagined the whole affair up until the moment he is led into the yards during the morning rec hour.

It is immediately and painfully obvious which of the prisoners is Obi-Wan Kenobi. Sol. Even without the instructions that he’d been given, Anakin thinks he would be able to pick out the other man, just from how the others treat him.

Sol stands alone, back against the far side’s prison wall, ankles crossed and a deathstick in his hand. No one gets within several meters of him, giving him a wide berth. Out of respect? Fear? Both?

Anakin swallows.

This is not the man he thought he’d be when he was younger. This is not who he wanted to become.

But somehow he is here. Somehow this is the man he has become. Somehow, after a decade of freedom, he has been found by a new master.

Sol’s eyes flash golden in the weak sunlight as he watches Anakin approach him slowly. He tilts his face to examine him, to look at Anakin examining him in turn. His beard is neat and well-kept, as red as his rather long coppery hair. His smile is crooked when Anakin stops in front of him. He’s shorter than Anakin. It feels like a hollow victory, especially when the man plucks his death stick from his mouth and places it between Anakin’s lips.

“Good boy,” Obi-Wan purrs and Anakin feels a roar of emotions roar up in him at the words. Sickness. Hatred. Anger.

And strangely, out of place and unexpected, a thrill of excitement.

#asks #obikin #prompt fill #so obi-wan is a sith here (darth solence)#who heard of anakin's trial and snuck into the same prison #ostensibly because sidious asked him to #so that after a few years of anakin being imprisoned and turning darker and more bitter at the republic #sidious can bust him out in a jail break scheme and have his new apprentice #but obi-wan has his own agenda #especially when he sees anakin and how powerful he is #and how deliciously hate-filled and passionate #so he decides that after a while in prison together winning anakin's loyalty #he WILL break them out of jail.#but then he will keep anakin as his new apprentice and not give him back

i had a vision while i was out today and had to get it on paper. ignore the fact that i havent drawn in years. Robotnik is the most basic of designs if you are interested in this au are better at character design than me please feel free to change him up.

notes transcribed/more information under cut

Agent Stone is a former member of the Royal Guards K-9 unit in Snowdin. When the new and unpredictable Royal Scientist was hired, as the most capable of the bunch, he was reassigned as a temporary bodyguard/assistant/babysitter— it ended up being less temporary than he had expected.

His tail is docked, and he is a master of keeping his face perfectly neutral, but sometimes, when what his boss is doing is particularly fascinating, or he gets to close, his tail is quite the tell.

Dr. Robotnik/Eggman/Ivo Kintobor is, technically, a ghost from a small snail farm in Waterfall. He, however, has never thought himself so low. Once he had the proper materials, he built himself a proper body— though he is still indecisive about fusing with it properly (would he even be capable of such a thing?)

He, naturally, worked his way into the royal scientist role with his magnificent engineering feats, using himself as a proof of concept: a “Robot with a Soul”.

Robotnik is working toward a way to break the barrier with human soul energy— though, lately, he has been finding the idea of using the soul energy for more selfish purposes far more interesting.

One could say

…

Very

Interesting.

In this AU Sonic is probably the fallen human lmao

Hello! I’m Key, and this is my commission sheet! All of the necessary information for commissioning me is here, and I’d appreciate it if you could take a look before shooting me a message! Here is my Ao3 For Reference! Please see the aforementioned link for Will/Won't Write List and Ships I Will/Won't Write List!

GUIDELINES

Please read my Will Not Write section thoroughly. Just because something is on the list doesn’t mean that I dislike or don’t support it, but there are things on that list that I just don’t have enough interest in writing. That said, things on my Will Write list do not inherently mean that I support or like it.

Currently, the only fandoms listed that I will write for are Resident Evil Biohazard/Village/4 Remake, Sonic Live Action Movies, Sonic Creepypastas (.EXE, Rewrite, Sink), Hazbin Hotel, Helluva Boss, and Saw (All Movies). This is because they are current hyperfixations for me and I am more capable of writing for them without issue.

I will allow up to three edits of less than 300 words before those incur a fee. If I interpreted your prompt wrong entirely, please let me know. If the confusion was on my part, no fee for a total rewrite will be incurred.

Please message me before filling out the form for a commission. I’d like to discuss particulars about certain topics and things and I’d like to approve the commission beforehand.

If given artistic freedom for a prompt, I will write how I naturally write the characters. I am willing to take direction for how you want characters to be written. I would prefer not to go against canon to the point of completely erasing a character’s identity. This does not count for certain kink scenarios (Bimbofication and other mind-altering things).

This is a kink-friendly account. I will not harass others over their fictional tastes and I do not support harassing anyone for any reason. I will write things that will make you uncomfortable. I will write things that are dead dove: do not eat. I will write a whole host of things and if that upsets you, please find someone else to commission. I am also willing to write kinks that are not mine! Please keep this in mind!

I predominantly write romance, smut, fluff, and angst, but can try my hand at other genres.

I do not mind aging characters up for smut, and I will write any manner of ship type from m/f, m/m/, f/f, to polyamory. Please keep in mind that a fee will incur for more than 4 characters in a ship per every 1k words. If your ship includes 6 people then I will require at least 1,500 words minimum to write them. Smut for that many will be over 2,000 words easily.

For prompts, I will accept up to five words, two sentences, or a small paragraph of what you would like for me to write. Please try to be as concise as possible.

I will not start your commission until the upfront $15 for the first 500 words is paid. Once that is paid, I will begin and you will only be charged for the rest once the fic is completely finished and edited. I tend to add 100+ words to things in the editing process, as a heads-up. Payment can be made via PayPal, Venmo, and CashApp.

PRICES

500 Word Base Price - $15

After the initial 500 words, a fee of $8 will be charged for every 100 words. If this is a rush order (needing to be completely finished in two weeks or less), there will be an additional $10 charge.

600 Words - $23 700 Words - $31 800 Words - $39 900 Words - $47 1,000 Words - $55 1,100 Words - $63 1,200 Words - $71 1,300 Words - $79 1,400 Words -$87 1,500 Words - $95 1,600+ Words - $103+, Open To Discussionhazbin ho

ー STARWEB MASTERPOST‼️

OWNER : @foddercaptain

☆ Some information on it and how it works. This WILL be updated overtime, tweaked, adjusted, and referred back to, at least until i start publishing everything properly!

SHORT SUMMARY:

Starweb is an original insect/bug themed Sonic/Sonadow centered AU in which all mobian characters in canon are bug counterparts to their original species! Ex: Hedgehogs = Spiders, Echidnas = Ants, Foxes = Weevils, etc. Instead of just bugs though, they are referred to as Insectians! Basically means mobians/people.

REFERENCE SHEETS & LINKS AT BOTTOM‼️

• What's it about? ★

The story follows primarily Sonic and Shadow in their lives as Insectians, born under very different circumstances and understanding of nature or how to live, they learn about each other and even if their opinions and ways oppose or clash sometimes they still care about one another to great extents. This is a Sonadow plot, but you can consider it more of constant slow burn, really, it's just never ending slow burn sometimes, it kills me too. This world works on a base of "survival of the fittest," meaning that animals eat bugs & bugs eat other bugs, just like reality, this does mean that characters can die and you will see some of this mentioned. Keep in mind they are quite literally just bugs, there are not powers like the characters normally would posses, natural disasters for them are just a little bit of rain to humans, similar to wind or even as drasric as forest fires. In addition, in-universe they have their own terminology for certain things, taking some inspiration from WC, A Bugs Life, & WoF.

• Terminology! (wip) ★

ー Insectians - The replacement word for mobians, refers to the general bug or population. It does not matter if the insectian in question is an insect in real life, they could be an arachnid and still be considered an insectian. EX: There was another insectian nearby.

ー Forager - An insectian who collects human-made or unnatural objects, whether for use or just having it, this includes those who make homes from said objects, EX: living in a former soup can.

ー Beastie - An insult used against vegan insectians that are not naturally vegan, this would be considered a minor slur, but it is frequently amongst those in tune with their instincts to mock those who aren't, EX: "You're a beastie."

ー Scavenger - Insectians that feed on other dead or decaying insectians. This is commonly used in phrases or insults, as being a scavenger is considered "unclean" by some, EX: "You eat like a scavenger."

ー Tamer - An insectian with the talent of taming animals that aren't bugs, such as birds or rodents.

ー Vagabond - Those insectians with adventure in their veins who cannot or do not want to stay in one place, often insectians that have little fear of their natural world and explore.

ー Dwellers - Insectians who live close to humans or inhabit human homes, this can be infestations or genuine pets with enclosures. Dwellers are commonly lacking instinctive knowledge of the wilderness depending on where they were born and lived.

ー Chao - Farmed or pet: Grub, maggots, or larvae of some kind, they are like the human equivalent of chickens as they are commonly used for an easy food source that doesn't involve hunting or killing other insectians for said food.

ー Season - Refers to someone's age or time passed in life, being in season means one is of the age of maturity, it's often used to separate old from young insectians, though this doesn't always work as bugs can be big and not be in season, they do not celebrate things like birthdays or keep track of ages. It can also be used to state an insectian is immature, EX: "For your age, you sure are out of season."

ー Maggot - Can be used as an insult towards another insectians intelligence or adolescent behavior, the replacement for idiot or stupid, it means someone's as smart as a maggot, maggots are the baby/larvae stage of some bugs such as flies, EX: "You act like a maggot."

• Story Execution ★

Starweb will consist of comics and writings! Both formats will be used to articulate whatever parts of the plot that are needed. Currently, this will be going in 3 main story arcs, they start at when Sonic and Shadow meet then go from there, it will go in order but have more of an episodic format, like different days are different adventures. I'll makes a comic page every-whenever-i-can and post them, I'll put out illustrations, one-shots, and whatnot! I'd like to include multiple mediums and hope everyone will follow and enjoy it until the finale of the story. Even once that happens, i must clarify that won't be the end of the au, there a huge pre and post-Starweb plot that exists, and i have a lot of that already figured out too, the only difference is those will branch out to more side plots and characters, such as Amy & Metal.

• Extra/FAQ! ☆

ー Yes you can make Starweb ocs or convert your ocs into Starweb!! Nothings is a closed species and if you really don't feel the current au design limitations of the bug species fit than don't be afraid to do your own thing!

ー Despite the story following Sonadow and everyone being bug sized, i do not mind fanart of your own favorite Sonic ships with my au! Prefer Sonamy? Knuxadow? Alright, you can draw starweb sonamy/knuxadow! Wanna give them clothes or accessories for fun? Cool as hell! I don't mind and would love to be tagged so i can see too, have fun! (This does not include proships, if you are making weird art of my au i will block you).

ー Curious about anything or want to submit a drawing request? Go ahead! Of course, keep it sfw, and i will see what i can do! I won't be drawing anyone else's ocs unless you are a mutual, but I'll be happy enough to draw other ideas related to the au!

ー You can in fact make fan designs for characters that have yet o be drawn or have a reference! I know the ultimately i won't be able to do every character I'd like, especially less common ones like Manic (spider) or Sally (moth), some mutuals have already done with with characters like Espio, and even prior- metal!

ー I don't mind taking inspiration off of my au, but of course if you do I'd love to see and even support ya, so please tag me if you make ocs, your own au, or anything else! If it is really heavy inspiration, then still don't be afraid to ask, i have many mutuals who have requests to so it shouldn't be a problem, i love to talk about bug characters!

★ If you're interested in this au don't be afraid to send asks anytime, always open here!

Washed Ashore - Chapter 2; Ex-Colleagues

Platonic Sonic Boom x Ex-Villain!Reader.

Washed Ashore Masterlist

The sun flashes its gentle, yellow rays upon your form as you stroll through the beach. A cool ocean breeze keeps your mind fresh as the warm sand tickles your feet with each step. Two tropical birds sing and dance within the rich green leaves of a tree, concealed by flowers in full bloom. All in all, the day is shaping out to be absolutely beautiful.

If only the entire walk to Sonic's house had not consisted of one girl bothering the life out of you. However, for the sake of keeping the situation civil, you are rendered incapable of responding like you want to, that being smacking the nuisance into next Tuesday. You do not have anything against her, but she could quit shoving her finger in your face every five seconds.

"Who do you work for? The government? Aliens? The robot overlords?!" Sticks sticks her finger repeatedly onto your cheek.

You are about to roll your eyes for the sixth time during that walk before the finger slips into one of them. "Ow!"

"Sticks, stop poking (Name)! It's impolite," Amy scolds.

"Hey, chill, Knuckelina! I'm sure it was just an accident!"

"I'm starting to regret becoming your sidekick," Amy mumbles.

"Is it the name?" Knuckles asks, "it's gotta be the name, since I'm such an awesome boss. Don't worry, I can come up with something else! Like..."

"Can't I just keep my own name?"

"But that wouldn't be good for the brand!"

"What brand?"

"Wait, uh, what were we talking about again?"

"We're here," you state. Like you hoped she would, Sticks quits bothering you but sends you an 'I'm watching you' gesture. You sigh as Amy knocks on the door.

Sonic swings the door open with a yawn. You glance at him with a raised brow, it is unusal of him to be so low on energy. The reason for his exhaustion becomes evident when the resident self-proclaimed evil genius arises from the bathroom in his pink clothing.

"Eggman?!" Knuckles raises his fists up. Sticks retreats with a hiss while Amy gets into a fighting stance. Sonic stands to the side, oddly unbothered by the situation.

"Oh, hey gang! Didn't know you'd be visiting so early! I'm still in my evil pajamas! They've got a trapdoor on the back!"

"Too much information already," you mutter.

"What's he doing here?" Knuckles asks.

"We have a truce. Tails is letting him stay here until his lair is rebuild," Sonic explains.

"Ahem! Still waiting on that salmon eggs benedict!" Eggman calls out.

"Coming, coming!" Tails hurries to serve the elaborate breakfast.

"I asked for egg whites. These are yellows! See the yellow? I'm trying to watch my cholesterol! And this salmon is farm raised! What is this, prison?"

"What kind of prison have you been to? Not a single one where I've been has ever served salmon." You cross your arms with envy.

"It's all part of some evil plot, man! First he lures us into some terrible roommate ploy, but then wham! Out comes his fifty foot obliterator-bot and obliterates us all! We've gotta get out of here!" Sticks shakes Knuckles, who barely budges.

"Guys, we have to help him," Amy says, "if we don't, we'll be no better than he is!"

"Yeah! You'll be no better than I am!" Eggman yells and digs into his salmon eggs benedict, which he was complaining so loudly about before.

"Think about how this is for him!" Amy approaches him. "Do you feel scared without a home? Do you feel alone? Are you eating your feelings?"

"Somebody get her away from me." He recoils.

Your head tilts. "Eh? How does not helping the guy who destroys the village on a weekly basis make us just as bad as the guy who, you know, destroys the village on a weekly basis?"

"If anything, we'd be doing a huge favor to the villagers by throwing him to the streets! And to ourselves, since he'd be too busy rebuilding his lair to attack!" You sketch out the plan and swiftly and show it to the others, most of whom nod in thought.

"(Name)! Heroes help people in need. Currently, Eggman needs a place to stay at. Kicking him out would be cruel," Amy scolds.

"What? I'm just being practical!"

"As much as I hate to agree with the scheming, diabolical government spy, (Name) is right! This is all just a ploy to get us to let our guards down! You can't trick me!" Sticks shouts.

She then turns around to face a full-body mirror and screams. "The second dimension has stolen my image! Come! Help me get rid of this impostor!"

Amy walks up to you, distracting you from the badger attempting to break the mirror. "Don't do it, Sticks! That's seven years of bad luck!" Tails yells from the background while Sonic tries to wrestle her away from the fragile glass, grumbling under his breath about how stupid the entire day has been.

"Come on, give him a chance." Amy lays a hand on your shoulder. "Who knows? Maybe staying here will inspire him to redeem himself, just like you have!"

"Yeah, I'll definitely start thinking about redemption," he draws the word out. In spite of his obvious sarcasm Amy looks at him with pride, and you send her a deadpan stare.

"(Name) the Sword Wielder, right?" He turns his attention to you. "You used to be quite a big name in the old days. I am terribly sorry I didn't recognise you last week. Being a hero seems to have made you lose your presence."

Your expression does not twitch at his words. "That's rich coming from a low-tier villain."

"Low-tier?! Excuse me-"

"The only reason I know you is because we share- used to share- a common enemy," you correct yourself, "of course I looked into potential allies back then- no matter how little assistance they could provide."

Eggman stands up from the table. "Why, you- I'm going to-"

"That's enough, you two!" Amy steps in between you and Eggman. "(Name), stop being rude. And Eggman, stop provoking (Name). Alright, now both of you apologise."

"I wasn't being rude! I was being honest!"

"And I'm just expressing my disappointment in the fact that (Name) would abandon the honorable occupation of villainy to hang out with you goons-" Eggman clears his throat. "I mean, I'm just asking, since you were so good at your job, why quit?"

"Decided to change things up. I hardly see how that's any of your business."

"There we go! See, now you're communicating your feelings to each other constructively! Isn't this the best? Now, for the apologies!" Amy exclaims.

"Alright, I'll be the mature one and go first. I am sorry for judging your life decisions and saying you have no presence." Eggman apologises but mutters under his breath that he meant everything he said.

"And (Name)?"

Resisting the urge to roll your eyes, you respond, "...I am sorry for calling you low-tier."

Amy interlaces her fingers together and fawns over the display of successful apologies and communication. With her distracted, you take the opportunity to take back your words.

"He's mid at best," you mutter. Sonic snorts and bites back a laugh. The two of you share knowing grins before turning back to the conversation.

"I still don't trust him! He's brought those robots of destruction with him too! He has them at all times! He cannot be trusted!" Sticks screeches.

"Oh, please. The only damage those two bumbling idiots could cause is done on accident." Eggman speaks as the robots bump into each other repeatedly. "Trust me, I've tried to make them more effective. Never works."

"Last night's storm wasn't even that bad. How do we even know his lair truly is destroyed?" You ask.

"I know I'm the one who originally let him in, but if drinks one more of my energy drinks, I-" Sonic gets cut off by Tails, the owner of the house.

"Guys, if Eggman needs to stay, he can stay. Who knows? Maybe he might not be so bad after all," Tails says.

The gang looks expectantly at you, Sonic and Sticks. She lets out a hiss at the attention, Sonic groans out a 'fine' and you roll your eyes.

"Whatever. Sure, let him stay," you grumble in defeat, "but don't be surprised when he attacks while you're at your lowest. Game recognises game; I know he's up to something!" You wave off the situation and step out of the hut.

"(Name) may have given up the fight against the machine, but I won't! I never will!" Sticks hisses, "you will see! Soon enough he'll turn his ugly coat on you again!"

Sticks runs out of the house. Eggman yells one last sentence from inside, "hey! I'll have you know, my coats are all VERY FASHIONABLE!"

You and Sticks walk together for a couple of steps without saying a word. The atmosphere grows a bit tense as you try to sneak some glances at her to figure out whether it would d be good to say something or not.

"Don't you look at me that way! This doesn't mean anything." Sticks stops walking and crosses her arms.

"Even though I'm glad you've got enough common sense to see through Eggman's half-baked lies, you are still nothing but a con artist! Nothing else!" Sticks points at you and speeds off into the woods.

You sigh yet again as she runs away. From the very beginning of your attempt at redemption, you could always tell it would take the longest to earn her approval. However, you cannot take much offense to it, since she barely seems to even trust her friends.

The following day, you follow Amy to go check up on Tails and Sonic.

"Thanks for taking the time to play FP with me again this morning! But really, I'm going to be fine. As adorable as it is, you didn't need to escort me here," she says.

"Yes, I know you can fight, I didn't doubt that. But it's always good to have backup in battles if possible in case something unpredictable happens," you reply.

"Are you doubting Eggman again? Come on, let's give him a chance! You of all people should know how important second chances are!"

"That applies only when there's a reason to believe he's willing to change! If he's just here because his lair is broken, that doesn't make him a good person! Just a bad guy on a leash!"

"Oh, relax! I'm sure Sonic is going to attest that everything is fine and Eggman has been on his best behavior!"

To her dismay, her optimistic assumptions are disproven the moment you two step into the house and sit on the couch to talk with Tails and Sonic.

"That's it! I've had enough of Eggman! Lair or no lair, he's out of here!" Sonic shouts.

"You can't just throw Eggman out! Sure, he might be a difficult roommate, but it's only because you guys have a communication problem!"

"Communication problem? He whacked me with a pillow, hard! I'm dizzy, and I have serious short term memory loss!" Tails pauses. "And I have serious short term memory loss!"

"Why don't we settle this with a roommate meeting?"

You roll your eyes and lean back on the couch. At least you do not live there, so you will not need to actively take part in the meeting. You will be there only as a bodyguard in case of a fight breaking out.

Soon enough, Amy manages to get Eggman to sit on the couch opposite to you, Sonic and Tails, while she herself sits in the middle as the mediator.

"Now, Sonic, do you have something you'd like to share with Eggman?" She asks.

"Yes, how do I say this delicately? You're a horrible roommate and no one in this house likes you."

"Let's frame your statements with 'when you do this', it makes me feel 'this'."

"When you live here... it makes me feel... angry." Sonic struggles with the new manner of speech for a moment before devolving back to the old reliable one. "Because you're a horrible roommate and no one in this house likes you."

Eggman is quick to burst into crocodile tears. Sonic shares a look with Tails.

"You're right! I am the worst roommate," Eggman wails dramatically, "I've never lived with other people before!"

"What about us?" His yellow robot asks.

"You don't count," Eggman snaps before continuing to sob.

Amy turns around to face the other hedgehog. "Sonic, I think someone here could go for two spoonfuls of forgiveness, washed down with a tall glass of friendship. What do you think?"

"I could go for several spoonfuls of a chocolate banana split, washed down with a tall glass of strawberry milkshake..." you mumble dreamily.

Amy sends a glare your way.

"Make that an orange smoothie and I'll totally agree with you," Sonic says.

"Wanna go grab those later?"

"You bet. I'm gonna need mountains worth of sweets to get the taste of this dumb situation out of my mouth."

"What's the situation taste like?"

"Sleepless nights and feathers. Bleh." Sonic coughs out a singular feather and you gag at the display.

"Ahem." Amy clears her throat. "As I was trying to say before you two totally ruined my clever figure of speech, someone should go and apologise to Eggman. Right now!"

"Ugh." Sonic groans, but turns towards the man anyway. "Eggman, if we give you a second chance, will promise to shape up?"

"You bet!"

Amy gasps in delight at the progress. "Roommate meeting group hug!"

Your eyes widen and you jump over the couch, rushing to the door. "Nope."

"(Name), get back here!" Amy yells.

"Try and make me!" You leave through the open door.

"(NAME)! JOIN THE GROUP HUG!"

"OVER MY DEAD BODY, AMY ROSE!"

However the rest of the day went, you will never know. You spend the rest of it in blissful ignorance of the torment two of your friends are still likely facing, hanging out with Knuckles instead.

"Now that I think of it, I haven't heard you say much of anything about the current Eggman situation," you remark, "what do you think? Are you with me and Sticks or do you think he can change?"

"I think there's good in everyone!" Knuckles says enthusiastically while lifting weights. "Even that old lady who always blocks the grocery lines by using pennies to pay!"

"Now that's devious."

"I know, right?" He drops the weights on the ground, shattering a nearby rock. "And I think- wait, uh..."

Knuckles pauses and scratches his temple. "What were we talking about again?"

"I'm starting to think all those coconuts that fell on your head gave you brain damage."

"Oh, yeah? Could someone with brain damage do this?"

Knuckles proceeds to run and bash his head into a palm tree. The tree shakes as he rubs his forehead with a whine, only to be knocked out by an avalanche of coconuts, for the fifth time that month. You stroll up to him to see his eyes swirling in his head, but he is at least still breathing normally.

"Only someone with brain damage would even consider doing that." You poke him with your shoe while he continues to tweak on the ground.

It does not take long for Knuckles to wake up again, he is a rather durable guy after all. Sometime later, both of you go to your respective homes to sleep, but agree to go check up on Sonic and Tails together the following day. Sticks and Amy join the two of you once you cross paths, leading to you four all visiting Tails at the same time again.

Knuckles strolls in through the hut's open door. "You're still hanging with Eggman? How many hours of sleep did you get?"

"Zero," Sonic mumbles.

"It's stage two of his evil plot, man! We are minutes away from him summoning his big obliterator-bot with its obliterator legs! And it's obliterator teeth!"

"Sticks, stop being paranoid! Eggman's lived here for two days and he hasn't hatched a single evil scheme!" Amy walks up to Sticks.

She gets cut off by a loud malicious cackle from outside. You glance at her with an expression that says 'I told you so'. "Two days isn't enough to make someone change, Amy."

All six of you then rush outside, two of you slower than usual.

"What's so funny?" Tails asks.

"Remember how I said my island fortress was destroyed by a storm? I may have... fibbed." Eggman promenades dramatically past the row of heroes. Sonic's head droops, as he is on the verge of passing out.

"You see, I kind of faked the destruction of my fortress as an excuse to live with you and tire you-" Eggman slaps Sonic awake.

"Tire you to the point of exhaustion!" He finishes once he has made sure everyone listened. "So you'd be too tired to stop Obliteratorbot!"

A large red robot emerges from behind trees, approaching menacingly and taking a fighting stance.

"I knew it, he did have an obliterator-bot!" Sticks jumps up and down in front of Knuckles, grabs Amy's shoulders and shakes her. "Why doesn't anyone ever believe me? It's not like I'm paranoid!"

Sticks then notices her shadow on the ground. "Stop following me!"

"Enough! Obliteratorbot, destroy Sonic and his four friends!"

"Four?"

"Oh, yeah! Five! Ugh, quit recruiting new members! It gets so annoying to keep track of!"

"Four... tress? Fortress. Destroy fortress. Destroying island fortress" The large robot misunderstands the task. Eggman desperately tries to undo the command, only for it to be further affirmed. Not only that, the robot plays rock music in the background. You barely hold in a cackle watching from the sidelines, and this time not even Amy scolds you.

"Sonic, you have to help me!"

"Why? It's your Obliteratorbot."

"Because if you don't I'm truly stuck living with you until I build a new island fortress."

"Let's roll," Sonic says in the most monotone voice you have ever heard from the hedgehog.

Eggman rushes to his eggmobile while the heroes' group gathers into Tails's plane. He takes off from the ground smoothly enough but drifts off as the plane zipped across the blue ocean.

"Tails? You doing alright over there?" Knuckles calls called out with no answer.

You take a glance at him as you sat the the closest to him. He goes limp suddenly and the plane curves down towards the ocean.

"No!" Amy yells.

"We're gonna crash!" Sticks screeches.

Biting your lip, you jump up from your seat to grab the wheel. You pull a lever up as high as it can go and manage to narrowly avoid crashing into the bottom of the ocean. The plane gets a bit too vertical and you have to mess with the controls until it finally stabilizes. Even though you sweat the whole way to Eggman's island, the plane drives to a relatively smooth stop on the front of the tower.

"Whew. Stuck the landing," you mutter to yourself. Leaning your head back, you take a moment to take a deep breath before exiting the plane. The rest of the gang slips out of the vehicle too.

"Gotta stop 'em... but so... tired..." Tails mutters.

"Maybe there's a clue on the ground... the soft... soft... bed-like... ground..." Sonic drifts to lay down on the pristine white ground, only for Sticks to rapidly kick him on the back the second he got comfortable.

"What?! What's wrong? Are we under attack?" He jumps up. He then remembered what was going on and yawned. "Oh, yeah..."

"Eggman, you built that thing, how do we take it down?" Knuckles asks.

"By activating two kill-switches at the same time! They're inside the lair! There! And there!" He points at the two switches.

"Oh, come on..." Sonic whines. "Alright. Amy, Knuckles, Sticks, (Name), distract that metal monstrosity. Tails and I are on the kill-switches. Eggman, you'll have to show us how to activate 'em."

"Wait, should we really give the most important jobs to the only two in our group about to collapse at any given momen-" you speak up, but get cut off.

"Pre-mission group hug?" Amy asks. You recoil several feet back and forget what point you were trying to make.

"No." Sonic refuses and dashes off to complete his mission.

"Well, lets get to it then." You shrug and pull out two swords from their holsters. The others ready themselves as well. Knuckles raises his fists, Sticks pulls out her boomerang and Amy brings out her hammer.

The four of you walk up to the massive red metal pile, which is quick to turn its attention to you. Obliteratorbot slices off part of the roof and jumps down from the building in front of the group.

"I knew you were coming," Sticks growls, "but you will never obliterate Sticks! Because Sticks is unoblitr- unolib- unobliterilly-" she gives up after several tries.

"You can't kill me," she declares.

But none of you even get though chance to actually fight. The switches get taken care of faster than anticipated. Sonic rushes in out of nowhere and grabs a fallen piece of metal, knocking the bot's head off while yelling something incomprehensible.

"I got my swords out for nothing," you mutter. They slide neatly back into their holsters and retreat into the small pocket dimension you pulled them from with a snap of your fingers.

The lair explodes, triggered by the chemicals from Obliteratorbot's fuel. Eggman falls to his knees with a dramatic scream.

"Eh, sucks for him." You shrug and walk off with a satisfied smile.

Sonic speeds next to you with a grin and throws you a fist-bump. "Well said, snookums!"

Your smile twitches. "I should've waited before putting my swords away."

"Hah, you couldn't have laid a scratch on me anyway!"

"Oh, really? Let's test that theory out then-"

"Guys, stop fighting and let's just get out of here!" Tails shouts from his plane.

The ride home goes smoothly and as a reward for a job well done, you all decide to treat yourselves by taking a moment to chill at the beach. All of you sit in the warm sand watching the orange sunset, chatting on and off casually, until someone interrupts the lovely moment.

"Hey, fellas! As you know, my fortress is now a smoking ruin! So, I was wondering, maybe, if I could stay with you guys for a little while, just until its built back?" Eggman asks while settling down onto a beach chair.

Sonic is quick to grab both the doctor and his bags, taking them right back to his lair. You decide to lay back in the sand lazily while he zooms back and forth before returning for good.

"Do you think he's going to get lonely being there, all on his own with no home to go to?" Amy wonders out loud.

"Oh, for sure. You should go and offer your therapy services to him, he seemed to really appreciate how caring you were," Sonic responds.

"Great idea! I'll go and keep him company!" Amy claps her hands together before heading to the island. Either she was fully oblivious to the sarcasm or ignored it on purpose out of spite.

Sonic stretches and happily sits down in the sand next to you. "Yo, snookums, still up for getting smoothies later?"

He uses the dumb nickname again, but unlucky for him, you decided to join him in this stupid game.

"Oh, of course, honey muffin."

He sends a glare your way.

You respond with a smirk. "But, are you sure you don't want to enjoy this newfound peace and quiet for a little longer while it lasts?"

Sonic takes moment to think about it, then places his arms behind his head and lays down in the sand as well, enjoying the final rays of the setting sun. "Hm, well, I guess it wouldn't hurt."

Minecraft Movie - I Have Opinions

Before I get crucified: I watched it with my friend who pirated it.

Also, if you enjoyed this movie, I'm happy for you. Genuinely.

This just me and my opinion. People are allowed to like what they like and are also allowed to not like things. I have some stupid movies I like too.

So first and foremost, I must admit my bias:

I have been playing Minecraft since it came out.

I'm an English major, so sorry if this sounds pretentious, but I am hard wired to find plot holes/issues. Blame my one professor.

I tried to be as unbiased as possible, but this movie made it hard.

-*-*-

Now, I don't usually critic movies or any type of media. I usually don't care at all in fact, but as I said in my first bias point: I have been playing Minecraft since it came out in 2011.

I love this game and the memories that come with it so much.

And ten year old me would be so disappointed.

It seems like they didn't do any actual research on how Minecraft works and just took the bare minimum information and ran with it.

Like they could've made it so good and there are so many stories they could've made. It's a sandbox game with a lot of lore they could've used to make a great story, but no.

Like we could've had movie about:

Characters defeating the End Dragon

Villagers vs Pillagers

The horror of the Deep Dark?! Hello!

And those are just a few, generalised ideas.

The terrain doesn't even look right. They could've generated a random world and based the movie off of it! Like take some screen shots and draw over it!

This movie was not made by people who love the game.

Like add to the world instead of taking away from it.

For example: The Hobbit movie trilogy and Lord of the Rings books + movie trilogy.

I have read most of the Tolkien books and I didn't mind that things were added or left out of the movies.

For obvious time constraints, not everything in the Lord of the Rings books could be added (RIP Tom Bombadil).

Also, when making a movie of a book, not everything is going to look the same because it's a fictional story and we do not have magic so you have to work with what you have 🤷‍♀️.

For The Hobbit, I didn't mind that they added to the story. I love the book, but in the end I did find the movies more enjoyable.

The Minecraft movie however, can't use any of these arguments due to:

It's an animated movie based off of a video game.

People weren't expecting them to use all of the source material because it's a sandbox game with a lot of lore, but that's not an excuse to use NONE of it.

-*-*-

This might just be my opinion, but the real people in an animated world was... meh. I just don't think it works.

Now, I like some films with a mix of real people and animated characters. Some examples are:

Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

Enchanted

Osmosis Jones

Mary Poppins (1964)

Bedknobs and Broomsticks

The Pagemaster (Scared the crap out of me.)

Rock-a-doodle

Looney Tunes: Back in Action

Space Jam (They played this once a week on TV, so I got annoyed with it and don't like it very much + don't like basketball. But a lot of people like this so I added it.)

I think what generally works is:

Real characters become animated and world becomes animated/go to animated world. (ex: Rock-a-doodle & Enchanted & The Pagemaster)

Real world and animated world are separate. (ex: Osmosis Jones & movies listed above in point 1)

Animated characters are in real world. (ex: Looney Tunes: Back in Action & Who Framed Roger Rabbit?)

Animated characters aren't drawn to be realistic. (ex: Mary Poppins (1964) & Bedknobs and Broomsticks)

So far, the only movie I've seen where the realistic animation works is in the Sonic movies. But that is due to them not being "animated characters". As in, they are real in that world.

So if you are going to make a movie with real characters going into an animated world/with animated characters (that are animated characters not real): DON'T MAKE THE ANIMATED ASPECTS LOOK TOO REALISTIC!! IT DEFEATS THE WHOLE PURPOSE!!

Like seriously, this sheep is awful.

Don't even get me started on the piglins. They look like clay. Like a old stop motion picture. Except if it was actual stop motion, it could've been better.

-*-*-

Now on to the biggest argument I have seen. The "iT wAs MaDe FoR kIdS, iT's SuPpOsEd To Be StUpId" argument.

Just because it's made for kids, does not mean it HAS to be stupid or poorly written.

Kids aren't stupid. There are far too many adults that treat them like they are or like accessories or think kids don't deserve nice things.

When I was a child, I actively got mad when people called me stupid or acted like I didn't know what I was talking about. How are kids supposed to learn things if we dumb everything down for them all the time? Obviously somethings need to be in order to understand and depending on the age, but not everything.

Life isn't easy, it's hard sometimes and it's important to learn how to deal with things we don't understand. It's important to learn how to figure out difficult things too.

Movies are a good way to teach kids difficult issues.

On the other hand, everything doesn't have to be "deep" or "edgy" either. The moral of the story can just be: "Friendship is good" or whatever.

A movie can be stupid/silly, but also well written.

It can have terrible animation/effects. It's expensive, they may have had to make do with what they had/could afford. It could also be an old movie and that's what they had at the time.

Something can also be funny because it has bad writing.

Like I enjoyed Minecraft: Story Mode when it came out. I thought it was fun. I didn't mind the bad writing. I thought the animation was alright. It also actually LOOKED LIKE Minecraft and built onto the lore.

This movie was made by Warner Bros. They could've done better.

-*-*-

Now again, if you enjoyed this movie, I'm happy for you. Genuinely.

This just me and my opinion. People are allowed to like what they like and are also allowed to not like things. I have some stupid movies I like too.

But don't hate on people that didn't like this movie because they like/love Minecraft and are upset with it.

And don't hate on the people that enjoyed this movie.

We can discuss different opinions on media while also not being assholes to each other.

I just watched Sonic 3 today.

Way too much punching, kicking, and squeeling on my part. I was in public and couldn't SCREAM.

I just have so much to say, but I'm gonna let it settle in my brain.

First and foremost, I LOVE how they handled Shadow.

Gonna be real, tho. I feel like that GUN director lady was a total waste of time. She didn't end up doing or being anything. Kinda like those two ex GUN agents in the Knuckles series. Utterly pointless.

They really gotta stop putting focus on characters in that agency when they don't matter. Looking at you, Randall.

I absolutely adored this movie. Didn't feel any wasting time beside that.

Gerald, Ivo, and Stone were extremely solid here on top of Shadow. A well-rounded opposition to our main trio.

I wanna know what Stone is gonna do now.

For some reason, I felt that Knuckles was lacking depth for a bit there, but then they pulled him right back in with the Tom stuff.

His saving grace is how he handles Sonic after what Shadow did. That was great. A great moment. Great characterization for all 3 of them in that scene. That was so real.

Tails was great throughout the entire thing. I could just feel how absolutely done he was with Eggman through the screen.

Our little buddy absolutely nailed his role.

Definitely can tell when character writing got focus. Both good and bad thing, but still, EXTREMELY happy with what we got.

I did get something spoiled for me, unfortunately, and I just kept thinking about it while in the theater, but I still had a fliptastic time.

Another thing I kept thinking about was comparisons to the story I already know, which, duh. Bound to happen, but it shouldn't impede anyone's enjoyment.

The way they handled Shadow's feelings was great. Like, actual cinema. No exaggerating that. Maria was an actual character, and this has gotta be the first time we Sonic fans were able to feel that.

That this little girl was taken. Shadow's only light.

A downside, though, is that we didn't actually get to see how Gerald was connected to either of them, which I found odd. We never even see him just pop in on the two having fun or reprimand them like the supposedly adoring grandpa he was.

There really should have been a couple of scenes of that to really drive in that they're both grieving family. Like, why did Gerald initially care about Shadow? Why was he and he alone comfortable enough with the powerful alien to the point where he lets Shadow and Maria become so close?

Literally, just have him watch in the background during that cute scene when Maria and Shadow first meet. Have him recognize Shadow as a person. Easy fix.

More spoilers:

I kinda wish they weren't afraid to allude to Maria getting shot. Or even maybe, Shadow in his burst of grief, creating a Chaos Blast that really killed other humans in the facility. They already gave us a half-baked story at the start that we would later be more informed on. Might as well hammer home that message of grief.

Speaking of which, Knuckles surprisingly didn't interact with Shadow at all. I thought they would at least reference the shared experience to help tighten the narrative.

Personally, I predicted that Knuckles and Shadow would have a short exchange, mostly via fists. But after the first fight, Knuckles wasn't used to that effect.

He kind of was just consistently used as the emergency muscle to bail us out. I think that's because the Chaos Emeralds didn't matter here. Like, at all. So, Knuckles wasn't given a specific thing to focus on, like Tails for technological aspects of the story.

A surprising change for the Emeralds after the setup of the last movie. But fair I guess, considering the wider general audience may not be ready for that.

They only have Gerald's empty weapon, but its power is fueled by a different chaotic source, which I found interesting, as well as Shadow's origin. With the way they framed Shadow's initial arrival to earth, I wonder...

Are they thinking of tackling Black Doom?

Anyway, I adored the direction they took this movie. It's a little questionable at times, but it's definitely worth the ride. Like any good movie.

Gotta say, that final Sonic and Shadow clash freaking HAD me. I'm still giddy about. Like, as I'm writing, it's been 4 hours later and I'm still jittering. I'm so happy that that part wasn't ruined for me.

The action is insane in this franchise it NEVER misses. They play into the abilities, and it is INCREDIBLE

And the inhibitor rings really came back into the fold. I wonder if the scientists made them for Shadow or if they came from his homeworld. It could be used to limit other characters' abilities. Wink.

I wonder what the next movie will be called.

I'm exploding on all this hype and narrative and turns out I'm only allowed 10 gifs per post. Stingy

So ends,

The Year of Shadow

Dewey Finn headcanons because this is the only place I can be freely cringe and make whatever headcanons I want (Mufinn headcanons are coming trust🙏)

Ate rocks as a kid. Not like sucking on them but literally chewing and swallowing them.

He loves telling dad jokes.

He’s allergic to cats but will not hesitate to pet a stray one.

Sort of going along with the dad jokes thing, he also makes “your mom” jokes.

He had an emo/goth phase when he was a teenager.

He can definitely read but he’s terrible at spelling and once put a D in “Orange.” /ref

He has adhd and autism.

He can fall asleep in the most random places. He once fell asleep on the roof.

He drinks coffee like it’s water.

He will stare at someone for an uncomfortable amount of time for no apparent reason.

Don’t give him a Redbull.

He’s always going on about how rock is the best genre of music but secretly listens to white girl music.

Almost accidentally stole a pack of gum from the checkout when he was like eight.

Something he doesn’t want other people to know is that if you play with his hair long enough he’ll fall asleep.

Was very close with his mother; she got him his first guitar on his tenth birthday.

Rock is his special interest and will yap about it any chance he gets.

He’s pansexual.

He calls people by the stupidest nicknames.

His class sees him as sort of another parent to them; he’s sort of like a dad to them.

He acts on impulse; if he’s in love with someone he will most likely do something to make it obvious before he loses his mind (Which is ironic because he’s normally oblivious to any feelings someone may have for him).

He has a three year old niece and he sometimes lets her paint his nails. Sometimes he’ll go into work with glittery nails.

His love language is playful banter and sometimes physical affection (sudden hugs from behind, etc.).

He’ll fall asleep with his guitar in bed with him sometimes.

He’s fallen asleep at his desk multiple times.

Really likes those rolly/spinny chairs and will make himself puke by spinning for so long.

He gets very irritated if he’s hungry. Feed him.

Went to his first concert when he was about thirteen.

He has mild depression.

He’s dyslexic.

Once Googled “How many ants could fit in the Sun?”

He still counts on his fingers.

Very bad with social cues. Not in a shy/quirky way, but in a “Might accidentally laugh during a funeral way.”

He actually tried a cigarette once when he was about seventeen and immediately went into a coughing fit. He never did it again.

“Math is useless,” he says, even though he sometimes forgets what year it is.

Forgets his students aren’t his actual children + calls them by nicknames all the time.

Still has beef with Summer for some reason.

Tomika usually only talks to him any time she actually decides to speak (besides her dads).

He’s the type of guy to often trip over literally nothing.

He’s very touch starved. He tends to hang on for a while when he’s hugging someone.

One of the first things he learned on guitar was the riff from the Weezer song Buddy Holly.

He has a VERY subtle lisp. It’s not exactly something you’d notice upon first meeting him.

If you lend him money, you will most likely not get it back.

He desperately needs a hug, he just won’t admit it.

He most likely has an ex boyfriend.

He uses weird slang like awesomesauce, cool beans, etc.

He’s been in multiple near death situations and it’s actually crazy that he’s still alive.

He’s come to work with a hangover multiple times.

Everyone he knows is convinced he’s on some kind of drug.

He sometimes snorts when he laughs.

He’s a little scared of Rosalie, but still has a bit of a crush on her (huge crush actually)

He absolutely loves forehead kisses, but you could not torture that information out of him.

His students eventually caught on to Dewey and Rosalie’s whole dynamic so they start giggling and making kissy noises any time they interact.

He’s a bit of a Sonic fan. He played some of the games when he was younger and absolutely loves the soundtracks in the newer games (He doesn’t tell anyone, but his favorite character is Tails).

He uses the middle finger like his life depends on it.

He’s a big sleep talker.

His students see him as sort of a father figure.

He will make out with anyone if he’s drunk enough, regardless of gender.

Heyyy! I was out of town the whole day and came back just now I'm exhausted so this request might be short or too dumb XD

Sonic x reader

A Halloween night and reader was out trick or treating but it's midnight so time to head home, and sonic exe decides its funny to try and scare reader on the way back chasing them around doing his best to scare them

But reader is just pretending to be scared of him and hides, and when exe least expect they jump out from behind a tree and jumpscares him!

The Scariest Halloween (If that’s true)

Note || ohhh! This is such a fluffy fluff idea ❤️

WC || 729

“Oh this was such a great haul!”

Letting out a hum of agreement, you nodded. All the candy looked real tasty, but there were a few you didn’t have a particular liking too – so you handed those off to your friend.

You wondered if the streets were still open, but few here and there were already settling down into the night. Even with some that are actually already done with all the trick or treaters, you could recall a few good costumes you found during your extensive time as one of the few who actually decided to go out for halloween.

“Yeah,” Your friend says, “I gotta head home now, my mom set a curfew and I can’t be late.” They sheepishly said. You raised a knowing brow, but shrugged, you can understand their situation; “Don’t worry, I will be fine by myself. I need to go home too anyway.”

They smiled with relief, feeling as if a burden had been lifted from their shoulders. They waved you goodbye as they shouted, ‘Thank you! You're the best as always.’ You let out a long sigh, feeling a creeping anxiety set into the pit of your stomach. You didn’t like being alone by yourself at night on the streets, especially not for long. Regardless, you could manage in your unfortunate circumstances.

Though, all those costumes you saw were simply so comforting and dazzling.

Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball Z, Clowns, and a few. You couldn’t remember them all exactly, but they were very precious. There were pictures as proof, as you did ask for permission to take them. You thought they were nice people, having even exchanged contact information with one of them. Your friend from before was that person, you just clicked with them instantly. You wished they would have stuck around a little longer.

“Well, gotta get home.” You sigh, walking down the street as you keep your head held high. Not letting any little sound or misstep scare you.

Sounds of footsteps resound in your ears, reminding you to keep walking. It was your own fortunately, but something eerie sounded beneath your own. You certainly didn’t want to find out the source of that sound. So on forth, you continued walking. Up ahead you could see trees appear, laying in a row in front of the sidewalk you were walking upon. For a moment, the muscles in your ear spasmed, alerting you to something. It was random at times, but this appeared to be worse.

An all too familiar laugh resounds in your ear, glitchy yet affirming your silent suspicions. “You have to be kidding me.” You raise a brow, then continue walking, shifting into a hunched over stance as if to display to your pursuer that you were indeed scared of the situation you were placed in. For the most part, you could feel as if it worked. Sensing steps creeping up behind you, you jolted, shifting fully into running away. You didn’t want to stick around for his antics, you’ve had enough of them. But you could play into them for his sake, this felt fun for once.

“HAHAHA!” His laugh resounds once again in your ears, but it was as if it was stimulating. Yes, that was the word. Silly as it may sound, but his laugh was reassuring, that you weren’t actually alone.

And for a few minutes more, he chased you around the neighborhood. Having only lost sight of you once you dived behind somewhere, causing him to look around in confusion. Normally he had such good sight, so he looked around more, eyes glazing over the environment with careful trepidation.

‘No way I’m gettin old’ the demonic hedgehog thinks to himself, then shakes the thought off. “Hide And Seek huh? You may have chosen the wrong game.” He says, laughing once more as he looks around for you. His path was set and predetermined, so it wasn’t hard for you to angle your way around him, staying out of sight in the process.

Once you felt he was cornered, you snickered to yourself.

You could finally get the jump on him!

Carefully you stepped out, maneuvering your way toward him from behind so as to not alert him to your presence. He was still clearly very much looking for you, but it was in his unlucky state that you were actually-

“BOO!”

This "do Sonic games have good writing" discourse has reminded me of something I've been thinking about on and off recently. Namely, what does it mean for a Sonic game to be good?

We can argue about the merits of writing, characterization, and gameplay all day, but specifically, I've been thinking about the yardstick people often seem to apply to the series. Based on the way they talk about Sonic, you'd think the series needs to have an intensive, watertight lore and a story written by Kojima.

I don't think a Sonic story needs to be deep or dark in order to be good. I don't even think the writing needs to be complex or dynamic, necessarily; sometimes a message is handled best when it's delivered simply.

Although it's true that the games do feature darker elements, those elements have always been handled with tact and sensitivity out of a genuine care for the subject matter. Which brings me to what I think is the real crux of the issue: emotional honesty. Is the work trying to be something it's not?

I came to this realization after contemplating why games like SA2 and Forces (put down your torches and pitchforks) made me mist up where other works might not.

There are a number of reasons, but overall, I think most of it has to do with those games being thematically cohesive, if not always narratively cohesive, and remaining genuine to the messages they try to impart. Both are games that stick the landing despite being uneven in places.

IDW and the movies are not emotionally honest, in the sense that they don't employ any narrative or characterization decisions in service of greater themes. They just make shit happen to get a reaction from the audience, logic and theme be damned. And the kicker is that people gas both IDW and the films up as superior to the games when they're actually inferior, just in terms of sheer technical construction.

SA2 may suffer the occasional bit of wonky writing, but it is thematically coherent enough for me to be able to overlook that. And I'd deign to argue that most things people call plot holes aren't really plot holes, if you just thought about the information the game gives you. The game doesn't spoonfeed it to you, is all.

Battle? Has excellent characterization, as well as employs a foil between Eggman's and Gerald's treatment of Emerl as a commentary on mankind's responsibility wrt WMDs. It can be a bit heavy-handed as far as anti-war tracts go, but "This is the final voice of the last war machine" is still Shadow's rawest line, and no one can take that away from me lol.

I'd argue that SatSR is the best-written Sonic game. Its characterization is nuanced, the execution of its themes was tastefully done - subtly, even - and it features symbolism in a way that doesn't quite shove it in your face the way SatBK does.

It's definitely not on par with something like Silent Hill 2, but it's worth remembering that a Sonic game doesn't need to be Silent Hill 2: Sonic Edition to be good. As long as it tells its story honestly, a lot of flaws can be forgiven.

What do the spinoffs have? Vibes. That's about it. You can't really enjoy them on their own merits because they don't maintain any internal consistency, which is ironic considering how much people claim the games are inconsistent.

IDW? Can anyone tell me what its core message is? "Sonic offers anyone freedom out of his staunch belief in freedom as a general idea, regardless of if it hurts people or if it backfires on him, because it gives him Depth(tm) and Texture(tm) as a character"? "Sonic vs. Eggman is a dumb and harmful cycle we must stop because reasons"?

That's... kind of cynical, don't you think?

SA2 had things to say on anti-authoritarianism, grief, revenge, hope, atonement, and keeping true to yourself even in the face of doubt and hardship (ex. Shadow asserting he's still him even if his memories were false; Sonic seeking to clear his image and asserting "what you see is what you get": the two are foils and mirror reflections).

What was Sonic 3 trying to say? "I knew Maria wouldn't want me to destroy the world, but screw it, I'm doing it anyway because my pain is what matters most"? Shut up and clap for Live and Learn, you nostalgia-blind pleb.

Like, you can tell the difference. One is trying to say something. The other plays at saying something while saying nothing.

Honestly, this is how I feel with the anon trying to take my well-earned 'Sonic the Hedgehog Fan' sticker, despite showcasing that unlike them, I have more proof of myself understanding the games and how they operate.

Not every story is agreeable to people, and they don't have to be. For Sonic, the games are cartoons that you can play.
