tell me abt the dadow and sonadow enchanted au
so basically since sonic is king arthur and a prince in sonic underground i figured he could work in giselle’s role of being from a fantasy universe and accidentally ending up in a modern city
and silver would see him walking around the city that night which would lead to sonic and shadow meeting and shadow letting him stay with them until he could get home
and it would work similarly to the movie with sonic doing a bunch of things that annoy shadow who’s just trying to get rid of him and them eventually falling for each other with the added bonus of sonic and silver bonding (also sonic would get to try a chili dog for the first time since giselle eats a hotdog in the movie lmao)
and since enchanted is technically a story of two relationships i thought about having knuckles & rouge in edward and nancy’s roles but instead of being in relationships with shadow and sonic initially rouge would just be shadow’s friend who helps him with silver sometimes and knuckles would jump through the portal to find sonic and bring him home since that’s his friend (also tails would be with him kinda like pip)
i haven’t really decided on the main villains yet but i did have an idea of making it sonic’s mom from underground or just eggman (it could technically be both)
i haven’t thought out everything yet but this is what i came up with while rewatching the movie

I checked the internet to sate my curiosity, and looking up "Gold the Hedgehog" on DuckDuckGo gives a lot of Super Sonics, Super Silvers, and the occasional OC and/or recolour, haha. But to be quite honest, I think my mom only knows Sonic is a hedgehog because it's the franchise name; I don't think she'll figure out Silver is a hedgehog too, or Gold is a tenrec, unless explicitly told XD
I do love the idea that people figure Silver is Sonic because Sonic has been shown to have so many different forms, though! Now that I think about it, there's also the forms from the Wisps and stuff that make him look quite different; ample territory for theories about Silver being Sonic to rise🤔
Kakakakaka, you did it too? After I posed the possibility I searched this myself and it was indeed this very result lol.
Fun Fact: around here the 🇧🇷 dubbing team 🇧🇷 of the cartoons "adapted" (straight up mistook) hedgehog for porcupine during the three first cartoons, so up to Sonic X everyone around here thought Sonic was a porcupine KAKAKAAKAKKAKA (I think some versions of Underground's dubbing had made this correction in some point iirc) by extension of it, many people at the time assumed Knuckles was the same species as Sonic, which was not a hedgehog, but a porcupine. Up to 2010 this misconception stood strong.
So I find it possible that your mom would assume at first glance that Silver is a hedgehog like Sonic, same to Gold
As for the people theorizing Silver is actually Sonic, I wonder how long that would last 🤔 like would his friends from the future also go on this theory? Would they be the most "You're Sonic? LOL, NOW WAY 🤣🤣🤣" possible? 🤣
Maybe after a long time Silver starts to get bothered by everyone calling him thinking he's Sonic and straight up brings the blue hedgehog himself to clarify they're very different people 🤣🤣🤣🤣 bonus points if he also collects everything that can cause Sonic to transform and shows he can't use all of that and definitively not like Sonic 🤣🤣🤣
Bonus Bonus, everyone adapts the theory to say he must be Sonic's reincarnation and it gets such a proportion that their friends from the past also start thinking it AKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAJAKAKQKAKAKAKAKAKKAKAKA

Undertale Theory: Sans, Papyrus and Gaster Appear In Blooky’s Home
 while playing a new save on the new offline account that I had tried to make the Mii look like a Mii-Frisk and even gave it the name “Frisk”...
I still plan for that to be a type of “AU” where there was only one Reset, and the first name I had used to name the fallen human was Frisk, and then after I had showed mercy and spared Goat Mom Toriel...
I Reset the Timeline, and got to change the name to Chara.
so anyway before I had ended up fighting and befriending Undyne,
I went to Blooky’s home, and I had Frisk lay down on the ground around 4:38 Am to 5:59 Am in Real Life Time.
but when I was waiting for the time to become 5:59 Am, and yeah I did get up early and I did get a nice sleep and well of course at some point I did wake up and decided to play more of that new save...
anyway while looking at the galaxy that Frisk and Blooky was laying on,
I started to notice that Sans looks like he was in there, but really big and his looking to his right, then I notice what looked to be a monster soul to his right, but it turns out when I looked again, it actually kind of looked like Gaster, you know the name you can’t use for the fallen human unless you spell it backwards.
and to the left of Sans, looks like a younger version of Papyrus but with tiny dot like “eyes” but he didn’t look like he had a mouth.
plus that Papyrus might of been around Monster Kid and Frisk’s age.
I just notice it on December 4, 2022.
I guess if you keep Frisk from moving for that long and just look really closely, you start to notice stuff.
I dub that Sans in that galaxy or space, as Titan-Sans, you know because in Deltarune there are suppose to be Titans....
he seems to be bigger than most alternate versions of Sans....
and either my eyes and mind were playing tricks on me, or Sans, Papyrus and Gaster really did appear as huge hidden images in Blooky’s house.
well I did find that possible secret message in that crossword where Sans is possibly the one who is saying “I see someone better go diet.”
sure some of the letters aren’t all close together, but you need to look very carefully in order to find them to see the words.
it’s either Sans doing that whole telling us we need to go on a diet, or it’s Gaster picking on us from across time and space.
this might be more than just a theory though, about the whole finding huge hidden images of Gaster, Sans and Papyrus in Blooky’s home but only can find them if we decide to do the whole family tradition of Blooky’s.
 plus it could turn out that the Papyrus in that hidden image, could be the version from Deltarune, and that could go double for the Sans in the hidden image.
Gaster is a mystery, but I guess he could  be the version that is from deltarune or could be the one from undertale or from the timeline that came before both undertale and deltarune, which could take place in the Hard Mode...
I’m not really sure if my eyes were playing tricks on me or if I really did see those three being in huge hidden images and being like with space or galaxy or universe bodies, I know for a few moments Sans seem like he looked a little bit like Steven Universe, which I guess maybe because some those little star dots or whatever kind of made a design that looked a little like his hair...
I will leave myself signed in, while I go watch Sonic Underground.
if there was a Undertale/Deltarune Crossover AU version of that cartoon,
 Ralsei and Asriel would be the Sonic and Manic...
as to who would be the Sonia, I would say it would be Chara.
also maybe it’s possible that the Sans, Papyrus and Gaster I thought I saw at Napstablook’s home, could turn out to be Omnipotent and are technically very powerful to the point that not even Ink-Sans or Error-Sans can rewrite or destroy them, and not everyone has to agree about the theory.
but if by chance there has been others who have started to notice this on the Nintendo Switch when playing Undertale, either by their official online or offline accounts (I don’t mind playing both, I mean not at the same time, but you know what I mean...)
maybe there will be others who will bring it up, that they have started to notice Sans, Papyrus and Gaster show up in that little galaxy that appears when Frisk hangs out with Blooky by doing that family tradition.
don’t know if it was always there or if it only appears if you stay still long enough....
also yes I had made Frisk lay down on the floor around 4:38 Am to 5:59 Am,
because I was full of Determination to try to see that through, cause it was something I want to do...
yeah, I was weird enough to try that, I mean we do wait for Toriel most of the time in the room she left us in, and I wouldn’t be surprised if we waited for her in there until the next day in real world time, she still wouldn’t be back yet, even if we do move around while waiting, take a break for a sandwich and even bathroom breaks, and she still isn’t back yet even after the dog takes her phone...
well it is possible she wont just come back, even if you wait until the next day.
the Toriel from the Hard Mode Timeline, could be a Darkner and and Flowey from the Hard Mode might be a Darkner, or not.
Flowey doesn’t seem to follow us in Hard Mode, and the Demo version of Undertale that has Flowey, he might just be a Flower that has nothing to do with Asriel and isn’t him, and just was a normal flower that was injected with determination by Gaster, and not Alphys like it is in the full game timeline. 
there seem to be already a tag with “Omnipotent Sans”, so I chose it for this post as well...
in another theory I have thanks to those possible hidden images of Sans, Papyrus and Gaster at Blooky’s home if you decide to do that family tradition wit them.
the bodies that Sans, Papyrus and even Gaster use, are just Avatar and Vessel bodies that are using that are connected to their higher dimensional selves.
so in other words, they are like Washu, Tokimi and Tsunami from Tenchi Muyo.
Gaster somehow lost his full connection to his magical organic body vessel.
he can only connect back to it sometimes, and even when the Player is able to find that gray door and find Gaster when he is once more connected to his vessel, but it doesn’t stay that way for long and he becomes disconnected from his vessel once more and is send back to where he is trapped in.
if Gaster can only connect to the Undertale World sometimes, then he could possibly make a new vessel body that looks like him, and send it to deltarune.
 maybe Gaster, Sans and Papyrus wouldn’t be like Washu, Tokimi and Tsunami.
but if they were, Sans would be the Washu, Papyrus would be Tsunami, and lastly Gaster would be Tokimi.
that show is for mature audiences only, so it isn’t for little kids...and for good reason, and I know that Tenchi Muyo GXP ain’t for little kids either.
maybe I will watch more of that after I watch some episodes of Sonic Underground.
is it weird to think that if there was a crossover between Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss with Tenchi Muyo, and Washu is in her older form that is her true form....and she is hit on by Stolas’s Dad King Paimon or Charlie’s Dad Lucifer Morningstar....
it be funny if she replies “but boy, your only a child.”
lol, some might get what that means, I mean besides it being a reference to that song from the Mamma Mia Movie.
if Asmodeous and Fizzarolli were to hit on her when she is in her true adult form, well the version of her that is a Goddess.
she might tell those two the same thing that she would tell Stolas and Charlie’s Dads if they hit on her, by telling them “but boy, your only a child.”
even if Paimon, Lucifer, Asmodeous and Fizzarolli are fully grown, but she would be WAY older than them.
and well if anyone has watched most of the episodes of Tenchi Muyo, might know why Washu decided to take a different form from her true adult form.
if you think about who would win a fight, Ryoko or Vaggie, who would you think would win in that fight...?
or if there was a fight between Ayeka and Charlie, who would win...?
or like there is a fight between Razzle & Dazzle Vs Ayeka’s Guardians.
and while that is happening, Angel Dust is running off with Tenchi (still held captured), and by the time Ryoko, Vaggie, Ayeka and Charlie notice, Angel is a few yards away while holding Tenchi bridle style but still wrapped up in webs.
and then the chase starts where Angel while still holding Tenchi, is running from Vaggie, Charlie, Ryoko and Ayeka with their respective bodyguards/guardians.
of course it wouldn’t be canon, but it would be interesting.
but anyway, it’s okay that not everyone ends up seeing what looks like a huge hidden images of Sans, Papyrus and Gaster in Napstablook’s home when we decide to lay on the floor and be like garbage with them.
 I’m not sure if many notice that or if it was my eyes playing tricks on me, I mean I do know I did find that whole “I see someone better go on diet.” in that crossword puzzle, and you would have to look very carefully for those words because they wont be close together, well maybe not all of them.
anyway I am also going to see that whole thing I finally notice at Blooky’s, that had to do with Sans, Papyrus and Gaster as Fan Headcanon as well.
maybe not everyone will end up seeing them, and it might just be me.
but it be nice to know that I wasn’t the only one that started to see Sans in there, as well as the possibility that Papyrus and Gaster in there as well.
but the odds of someone else noticing it are possibly 1 to 100 of happening.
if it took me and some other fans to notice the secret message in that crossword puzzle, so of course it’s gonna take a while for other fans to really look at the space or galaxy that appears in Blooky’s home when you decided to have Frisk participate in Napstablook’s family traditions.
anyway still gonna be signed on, but be back in a hour or so to check out more art and stuff, after I watch some Sonic Underground, Tenchi Muyo GXP and some other stuff....maybe I’ll watch a movie as well.
I think once I do reach Asgore’s castle, I will wait to fight him (even if I hope Toriel appears if the plan works) on December 31, 2022.
which means I want to break the barrier on Christmas, and after I do beat the game and get the happy ending in that one offline account that has a picture of a Mii-Frisk and even has the name “Frisk” in there, I will not Reset that world a second time, and let those versions of the characters live a happy life.
but I can still play Undertale on the other one and reset all I want, it’s just that one will be off limits after I get the True Pacifist Ending, I could play deltarune as well on that one that has that Mii-Frisk, so that’s good.
I hope it snows for Christmas, it be nice if it did...

Day 18 was cafe & day 28 was role swap
This is Shadow managing to convince Sonic to meet him for coffee, Sonic now that he's free & has seen how everything has been changed after he was trapped(for his safety due to Eggman) he isn't sure what to do. Shadow is offering to help him find a way to get back on his feet & maybe join him in fighting Eggman since both have reasons to stop him.
Link to list
I haven't posted this yet as far as I'm aware but here is the original pic of these two. I need to maybe edit shit for Sonic's design & backstory.
Tumblr media
In this role swap AU Shadow was able to escape the Arc with Maria, they went into hiding & were able to live a peaceful life. Shadow due to being immortal outlived Maria but he was able to make peace with it as she was able to live out her life instead of being murdered trying to help him escape.
Shadow is calm & not exactly the most social person due to having lived many years in hiding(though he did live in a small village with Maria but she was the more social one) however despite this he does try to be friendly. At some point he met & adopted Tails leading to Shadow starting over with his new family. The two would go on adventures with Tails helping Shadow to learn about the world around him along with meeting Knuckles.
Shadow would at some point learn about Eggman, Maria's cousin causing trouble leading to Shadow deciding to become a hero to help others. He & Tails would go on to meet their other friends with Rouge in a sense being a bit of a sister figure to him.
For some context before going into Sonic my version of Sonic is a mix of Modern Sonic & Sonic Underground. Sonic Underground happened 50 years ago when Shadow was still on the Arc & Sonic disappeared only to strangely reappear 50 years later. He's immortal thanks to absorbing a lot of concentrated Chao energy & also unknowingly being part werehog with his weremobian heritage being woken up at some point.
At some point while fighting Eggman Sonic & his family realized they weren't strong enough to defeat him. Aleena trapped Sonic in a place she thought was safe as Eggman was about to kill them. Sonic was left alone with no way to escape thanks to Eggman barricading the entrance. Sonic had only a chaos emerald he didn't know how to use fully but kept absorbing power from & his thoughts which led to him having enough time to realize he had lost his family & failed everyone.
Sonic would pretty much put himself into a form of hibernation(suriving thanks to absorbing chaos energy & his werehog heritage kicking in) until years later Tails found him & set him free. With nothing else for him Sonic puts most of his effort into trying to defeat Eggman until Tails & eventually Shadow convince him to join them leading to helping Sonic socialize.
Sonic is distant & a little like Shadow outside of this AU, he's bitter about Eggman thanks to the obvious. He dresses like this as he likes to & it reminds him of his family since Sonia & his mom liked to dress up. Despite how Sonic currently is a part of the old him is still in there like his love for speed, music & chilidogs. He tries to hide it sometimes but it's still there & with help while the old Sonic won't return a part of him could still be recovered.
Could probably use some work

Good afternoon everyone,
Last night's stream featured only Catherine, namely the Xbox 360 version of it. It's a story driven puzzle platformer, and even on easy difficulty it's a nutty game. The plot is that Vincent ends up cheating on his long time girlfriend named Katherine with a woman named Catherine right when he's starting to have nightmares based on his fears (commitment, being a father, etc). Being a game published by Atlus, there is a ton of surreal imagery including some 'what the fuck' moments.
In terms of progress, we cleared the first five stages (Underground Cemetery, Prison of Despair, Torture Chamber, Inquisition and Quadrangle), and more often than not, it was my own mistakes that lead to me falling to my demise... except  when it comes to the fifth boss, that Hell Bride certainly threw in some pain in ass mechanics that caught me way off guard. In fact that was where I had the most trouble... so I can imagine how the remaining stages are going to go.
At this point, I think I'll slot Catherine in for Next Saturday's stream instead of trying to finish it on Monday, because I have a feeling it'll take me a while to finish it!
On a side note, I did notice the Teddy plush in the Stray Sheep bar for obvious Easter Egg for Persona 4. Which makes sense because from what I understand, the team that worked on Catherine also worked on the Persona games (or at least Persona 5).
For the raid, we dropped in on Kalenal while they were playing Final Fantasy XIV over at twitch.tv/kalenal!  
Catherine Achievements
The Nightmares Have Just Begun.: Conquer Stage 1.
The Great Escape: Conquer Stage 2.
Play It Again, Vince...: Use the jukebox to change the music.
Let My Sheep Go: Conquer Stage 3.
No One Expects the...: Conquer Stage 4.
Push It to the Limit!: Push 5 blocks at once. (Golden Playhouse)
Crossing the Courtyard: Conquer Stage 5.
Stream Clip Links
Well we die!
I'm doomed!
Whoa... Well That happened!
While going through some boxes to see what is going to go to the trash, I found a bunch of games of the Sega Genesis, which were NBA Jame, Sonic & Knuckles, Mortal Kombat 3, Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie, X-Men, Ghostbusters, Madden '94 and NCAA Football. We have the carts and the cases... just not any of the manuals! Still what a find! I know we had more, so I wonder if the others will turn up?
Spoke to mom a few times yesterday, the weekend staff of the facility where she is at for physical therapy wasn't exactly on the ball... hope they'll do better today. We are raising funds in her fight against lung cancer, if you'd like to help out please visit: https://gofund.me/6adf8354
My hot streak of completing short story commission continued with the finishing writing another Dragon Ball story featuring Future Trunks, and I have another request in the works.
Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Intermediate Combo #1, Defensive Combo #2 and Triple Combo #2 for 31 minutes.  
I'm afraid for the calendar. Its days are numbered."
Song of the Day: Someone You Loved by Lewis Capald
For tonight's stream, well you know what day it is, its Sunday night which means its time for Overwatch 2!
So on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!

Mother I come bearing more ideas about prince!sonic! Also, Sonic underground was my shit! I even learned how to play the guitar just so I could play the intro. Even now all grown up I love singing it. Anyways now to my two cents.
1) Imagine Sonic and you are dating and when he proposes Sonic decides it time to meet the family. You meet Manic first, a man of the streets who knows his city like the back of his hand and you guys hit it off well. It’s very causal and fun and he gives his approval and teases that their sister might be harder since she’s so “high  maintenance”. But when you guys are heading to his mothers and sister place you are feeling pretty confident about winning their approval too. Once you make it into the kingdom your chill, then you go into the palace. Weird but maybe they work and live here so whatever, especially since Sonic is so casual here. But when the Queen and Princess show up in royal dresses and jewelry and hug Sonic tightly and talk to him so casually you freak out. How does he know them?!
“Mom, Sonia, this is my fiancé *reader*”
Mom?!? Wait the Queen?! He’s a prince?!
And when you have a minute to pull him aside you ask him and he just sheepishly smiles and shrugs. “Oh yeah, guess I forgot to tell you huh?”
This headgehog 😓…
2) Imagine Sonic’s nickname for you is pretty much always has been My Princess/prince and soon enough even your guys friends call you the title to tease you but you never care cause it makes you feel great and you have fun with it. But when your married he instead calls you My Queen/King now and you just laugh and enjoy the glow up and tease him back by calling him your king now instead of your prince (missing the way he absolutely glows at the title) It’s only when someone serious like Blaze calls you “Your Majesty” seriously that your confused.
“You don’t have to call me that Blaze.”
“Well in such a formal event it would be best to use your title.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Well your married to Sonic, so your a Queen now. So therefore, it would be at least ideal to greet you like that.”
“Excuse me?”
Apparently his nickname was a little more literal than you thought 😳
- Sorry I just love the idea of reader being absolutely clueless of him being royalty (which is another reason why he loves you) and then finding out way later and he’s just like 🤷‍♂️. Hope you enjoy! TC anon
THAT'S LITERALLY SO COOL TC?? that devotion... sonic loves it so much♡
this is literally so cute and funny, i can see sonic doting on your cluelessness towards his status as royalty—you're his little airhead and it makes him swoon! he even adores how awkward and stiff you act around other royalty because you're so... new at being overly formal and you're not even sure how to behave as someone in the royal family to begin with? and sonic loves teasing you about it all!!
the big, grand gestures he's able to make for you during his ~courtship~ with you just makes you think he must work a lot of jobs to afford it all. like, "where did you get such a lavish bracelet, sonic?" "oh, you know. just in storage, i was just waiting for the perfect opportunity to gift it to you" "???storage???"
sonic definitely doesn't care about the title or you acknowledging it in a literal sense; like you said, i think he likes knowing he's your prince (and eventual king) because he just wants to be number one in your life!! hehe

Long story short, Discord Roleplays lead to an AU where we mixed just about every Sonic media into one canon, while working them to fit within what's predominantly the mainline canon.
We worked in all 5 of the animated shows, both Archie and IDW, and a lot more; But now let's get into the rodents:
Tumblr media
Sonic the Hedgehog - We all know who he is. Sonic's somewhere in the 16-18 ratio in years, he's been doing this heroics for 4 years so there has been some time passage. After the Forces incident, Sonic reuinted with Tails, to search the country for the rest of their family, while still beating up Eggman's robots.
Miles "Tails" Prower - The officially adopted Son of Jules and Aleena in this timeline, first found by Sonic during the West Island incident, when he was found tinkering with his plane. Tails just like in normal canon is the brains behind the hero's outfit, or at least one of them....
Sonia the Hedgehog - The only daughter of the family, a while before the Forces incident she and her brother Manic focused on that garage band of their's "Sonic Underground" until a fight broke out between the two, which resulted in her heading off to Studiopolis to hit it in on her own, though overtime she gradually became more homesick until, she broke down and went to go find Manic.
Manic the Hedgehog - Manic on the otherhand, went down to Westopolis, which had since become the most ghetto city you could think of, BASICALLY Sonic's Chicago. It was here where he dedicated his time to screwing over the mob bosses Sleet and Dingo, who were ruining the city even further, until he was lured into a trap by the two and saved when Sonia, and later Sonic showed up.
"Queen" Aleena Hedgehog - "Queeny" here, got her nickname of queen since she was dubbed Prom Queen back in highschool. She was a stay at home mom, until the Forces incident which caused her family to completely scatter. During and after the war, Aleena spent all her time searching for her family, as she did in Underground.
Jules the Hedgehog - The father to Sonic, Tails, Sonia, and Manic. Jules remained in that robotic body after he attained several injuries in SA1, he was captured and broke out pretty quickly near the end of the war, focusing all of his time on finding his family like Aleena, and eventually he did find them.

How close is Sonic with his parents in this AU? In Archie he barely knew them.
its. complicated, to say the least. before i start let me say that sonic underground is semi-canon to this au, he is biologically queen aleena's child but after he and his siblings were separated, sonic ended up going to jules and bernie, and thats basically all.
sonic left home at a young age to start his fight with eggman all those years ago, long ego enough to only have memories of jules before he was roboticized. when he ended up reunited with his parents, bernie looked just as he remembered. but jules? he didnt know who he was looking at. that wasn't his dad, his dad wasn't... a robot. surely this was just some old badnik that chuck had fixed up, the voice and personality were just a coincidence!
his relationship with jules was strained for a long time after the reunion, but slowly he accepted what happened to his father, and finally started to repair their relationship. it took a while, but eventually they were as close as they used to be (with some emotional assistance from bernie). sonic still struggles sometimes with knowing his father will never be able to be hugged without fear of injury ever again, he still struggles with knowing he can't hear his father's heartbeat anymore, but it's ok. he's just glad to have his parents back
as for aleena. sonic never knew her, he has no memories of her but he knew that he wasn't biologically jules and bernie's. they made sure to tell him once they thought he could handle it. unfortunately their judgement wasn't the best, and learning of his adoption upset him to the point of running away and eventually meeting sonia, manic, then aleena. he didn't know what to think of her. he didn't know her at all, he couldn't call her his mom just after meeting her, bernie was his mom!
was. the way i worded it right now makes this interpreted as being a thought in the past tense, but during that moment sonic used the word "was," not "is." he never got along very well with aleena despite trying to convince himself that since she was his mom he had to love her. he just wanted bernie and jules back.
aleena is by no means a bad person, sonic just struggled with her. she did not hold this against him, and actually helped him find bernie and jules (along with sonia and manic. she knew this was a possibility that could happen once reunited with her children, and she was okay with it. she wasn't the one who raised them, but she was still eternally grateful to be allowed into their children's lives.)

RATING EVERY SONIC FROM THE SONIC MULTIVERSE
How much of a good boy they are? All of this in this thread.
Tumblr media
Disclaimer: Of course, this is my opinion. You might feel different. You’re welcome to disagree!
Tumblr media
(MAIN UNIVERSE - Universe 1991)
The Sonic from the games, a true good boy. He does things on his way, his own way, he aims to do what he believes is right, hates injustice. He cherishes his freedom above everything.
He loves to explore the world, always running around. Doesn’t have a house.
Doesn’t like to see tears. He also likes to crack some jokes to have fun with his friends. Is a hedgehog of action, usually doesn’t think twice before taking action.
Also has not shown much interest in doing romance.
10/10, this is my favorite Sonic
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1991A - 1991 Promotional Manga)
This Sonic is the vocalist of his world’s most famous band, and also has cool sharp fangs. A lot of human girls have a crush on him.There are certain rumors circulating around that he might be dating a human girl named Madonna... could it be true?
He is also a good boy, takes action when he sees others in danger, and is also determined to fight against injustice.
9/10
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1991B - American Sonic)
Originally brown, Sonic was a great friend of Dr. Ovi Kintobor, a good human scientist. Kintobor studied the Chaos Emeralds with the intention to get Mobius rid of all evil.
Kintobor gives Sonic cool new red sneakers as a gift, and after getting involved in an accident on one of Doctor’s inventions, Sonic turns blue. Eventually Sonic and Kintobor become enemies after the Doctor trips and breaks the machine that stored the Chaos Emeralds, becoming Robotnik.
A good boy, a dude with atitude, also way past cool, and full of 90s charm.
9/10
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1992 - Sonic the Hedgehog Manga)
Nicky is a shy boy, he has a younger sister, his father is a pilot, and his mom is a housewife. Nicky is a nerd dedicated to math and all kind of things related to it. He’s very coward and shy, and has a huge crush on Amy Rose.
But, when there’s danger on the horizon, Nicky’s second personality shows up! It’s Sonic, a way more brave dude, and with no reason to be shy! Sonic always fights against the tirany of the evil Dr. Eggman! After his duty of saving people is done, he turns back into Nicky.
Nicky does not have memories of what he did as Sonic, but Sonic retains the memories of what he does as Nicky. Nicky is a VERY good boy, a nerd, awkward and shy, I love him a lot 10/10
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1993 - ARCHIE’S SONIC/PRE-SGW) This Sonic is also a good boy. But, differently from the Sonic from the 1991 Universe, this Sonic is more “domestic”.
He has a place where he lives regularly, being it New Mobotropolis. He also has a father, mother, uncle and even a pet dog. This Sonic also does have some interest in dating/romance, having relationships with some girls in the past. But his main love is Sally, someone who he knows since he was a child. Currently dating Sally Acorn. But even with all of those differences, he still has a big sense of justice, always fighting agains Dr. Robotnik’s tirany and also Dr. Eggman’s. Just like some other Sonics, he sometimes allows his emotions to take over, which sometimes makes him do some unfortunate choices, but he eventually sees how he messed up and tries to do his best to fix things. This Sonic also has a certain ego, but he grows and learns as a person more and more as time passes. 9/10, a good boy
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1993B - SONIC THE COMIC)
This Sonic at first can see to be a little hard to approach. He has an even bigger ego than the other Sonics, and can say some things that can hurt his friend’s feelings.
But inside he is extremly unsure about himself, and tries to play “tough” in front of others to hide it. He also has shown some difficulty in reading other people’s emotions, which has put him in some complicated situations in the past.
He’s been trying to improve and be more friendly and approachable with others after being yelled at by Tails and Amy.
He has the same origins as American Sonic, being born brown and a friend of Kintobor. This Sonic was wrongly acused of crimes through an out of context video that was shown for all of Mobius to see. He’s been trying to regain people’s trust and show how much he has improved since.
His Super Sonic is an evil entity that has intentions of hurting all of those that Sonic cares about.
He is trying his best, 8/10
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1993C - AOSTH)
This Sonic is also a good boy. He’s an excelent older brother for Tails, that in this universe is only 4 and a half years old. Sonic always tries to be an exemplary figure for Tails.
He has atitude, likes to play and mess around, and lives running around Mobius. Just like Main Sonic, he also doesn’t have a house. He lives fighting all injustice wherever he goes through.
But, he can be a little bit of a womanizer, always getting himself a little carried away with the girls he crosses path with in his adventures. A cool dude, 9/10
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1993D - Sonic SatAM)
Blue streak. Speeds by, Sonic the Hedgehog. 
He’s a cool dude to talk and hang out with, he’s very chill. He can be a little bit of an airhead and is not very bright-- but in compensation he has a heart of gold, caring a lot about his friends and family. 
He also fights to have his Uncle Chuck back. Just like Archie Sonic, he also has a home. In this case being Knothole. But, now with Robotnik defeated, it’s maybe time to bring Mobotropolis back to its’ glory days.
He also has a big ego, and can be a little bit full of himself. But Sally keeps this side of him in check.
He dates Sally, that acts as Sonic’s conscience a lot of times.
A good boy, look out, when he storms through. He’s the fastest thing alive. 9/10.
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1994 - SONIC ADVENTURES)
This Sonic, just like Game Sonic, is full of attitude, brave, and fights against all kinds of evil he finds in his way.
He also becomes friend with an Echidna Lady. He has a thing going on with Amy Rose. He also has a cool mohawk.
8/10
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1996 - SONIC THE HEDGEHOG: THE MOVIE OVA)
This Sonic at first can seem a little bit arrogant, but inside he hides a huge heart full of compassion. He lives on a plane that crashed on South Island a long time ago, possibly the coolest house any Sonic has ever had.
Tails is his best friend, and lives together with him. Both usually either relax on the beach or go on adventures to fight against Dr. Eggman.
A very carefree Sonic, that takes action, and very rebellious.
10/10, an absolute good boy
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1997 - SONIC: MAN OF THE YEAR)
A Sonic that clearly fights against Eggman’s evil schemes for a long time. Was chosen as the Man of the year, even though he’s clearly a hedgehog.
Eggman ruins his image when disguises as him. I hope he got it back together, since we never got a continuation to this.
Just looking at him, you can tell he’s full of charm and has that Animaniacs flair in his animation, just from this alone I give him a 9/10
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1996B - SONIC THE HEDGEHOG: WONDERS OF THE WORLD)
This Sonic, unlike others, is a fictional character even in his own universe. He ends up going to the real world through an invention done by Josh’s dad. Josh is a real world kid that becomes Sonic’s friend.
This Sonic is a good boy, he believes that the powers of the Chaos Emeralds shouldn’t be used so carelessy, and helps Josh fights against his insecurities, while at the same time he saves his world from the evil Dr. Robotnik, that also ran away from the videogame world.
7/10
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1999 - SONIC UNDERGROUND)
He swore his mother will be found. He was raised by Uncle Chuck. He also wants to save Mobotropolis. He’s also a prince, being the son of Mobotropolis’ original Queen, Aleena.
He has two siblings, Manic and Sonia, and while they ocasionally fight between themselves, they care a lot about each other.
He also plays musical instruments, he can invoke a guitar through his necklace. Playing music somehow solves his problems.
7.5/10, a good boy
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 2003 - SONIC X)
One of my favorite Sonics. This Sonic is more calm and reserved. Loves to take naps. He is usually more reserved about his emotions, and hates to show emotional weaknesses in front of others.
He likes to read, hates injustice, and likes to pass most of his time alone. But he is shown sometimes to have a romantic interest in Amy Rose.
Extremely helpful, always tries to do his best to make his friends happy. Ditches a meeting with the president to make his friend happy.
An EXTREMELY good boy, 10/10 for him 
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 2003B - SONIC: DASH & SPIN)
This Sonic is probably one of the zaniest Sonics there is, he’s pretty up there with AoStH Sonic. He fights against Eggman’s evil plots, that in this universe can go from stealing a bank to using Sonic’s flu to cover the world with his snot (I’m serious).
He also can count with his friends for help, is full of attitude, nothing will stop him. He likes snowboarding.
7/10. 
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 2013 - ARCHIE SONIC POST-SGW)
This Sonic resembles Game Sonic in a lot of ways, but he is also part of the Freedom Fighters. But he also likes to have his own adventures across his world.
This Sonic, diferent from his other Archie version, isn’t much interested in dating.
He cares a lot about his friends, but he don’t want them to worry a lot about him, usually hiding any signs of weakness.
In general, a good boy, and an excelent friend you can trust.
10/10
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 2014 - SONIC BOOM)
This Sonic, like Archie’s Pre-SGW Sonic, is also very domestic. He has a house, lives in a calm island, and just likes to have fun with his friends, specially Knuckles and Tails.
He has a huge crush on Amy Rose, and there are a lot of signs pointing that they are boyfriend and girlfriend.
He likes to constantly foil Eggman’s schemes, saving the Bygone Island a LOT of times.
He can lose his patience sometimes due to dumb stuff said or done by his friends or townsfolk; or also with the surreal situations he gets involved.
9/10
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 2011 - CLASSIC SONIC’S DIMENSION)
After the events of Sonic Generations, the timeline has split in two, thanks to alterations done to the past. Because of this, we’re having brand new adventures with Classic Sonic.
He’s also a good boy, fights against all kind of evil he faces against, and cares a lot about his friends. Doesn’t talk much, prefering to keep quiet during most of his adventures. 10/10, a cute mute wholesome boy
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 2018 - IDW'S SONIC THE HEDGEHOG)
Passing in an universe after the events of Sonic Forces, IDW’s Sonic is, in a lot of ways, the Sonic from the games.
He has no fixed place to live in, always running around, making this his own way. Is constantly fighting against Dr. Eggman.
He usually believes that everyone can get redeemed or improve. This sometimes can come back to bite him in the ass, though.
A good boy, 9/10. Give him some rest, let him sleep
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 2020 - THE SONIC MOVIE)
This Sonic found himself on Earth after running away from his home planet. He becomes best friends with the Sheriff of the city of Green Hills. He ends up being adopted by him. Tom is now his dad.
He is super hyperactive, full of energy and can get easily distracted. He is a Sonic that doesn’t have much of a notion on how big the world can be. Some times can feel very lonely. Unlike some other Sonics, he seeks affection and interaction with others, doesn’t like being alone.
An absolute good boy, I LOVE HIM A LOT, 10/10
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE ZERO - ZONIC THE ZONE COP)
Zonic is responsible for patroling the Sonic Multiverse, checking if everything is in order. He takes his profession very seriously.
Works for Zobotnik, as much as he believes that Zobotnik shouldn’t be the one protecting the Multiverse prison.
This Sonic is a lot more serious and mature than the others, but he has shown to have a sense of humor to the Sonic from the 1993 Universe.
8/10. This Sonic isn’t a good boy though, he is a good man.
Tumblr media
(ALTERNATE 1993 UNIVERSE - SCOURGE THE HEDGEHOG)
Coming from a mirror dimension from the 1993 Universe, Scourge was born in an extremly peaceful Moebius. His father was a politician loved by all. Scourge felt neglected by him, deciding to become a rebellious punk to tease and provoke his father.
He forms the Supression Squad with Anti-Sally,  Anti-Tails, Anti-Rotor and Anti-Antoine. They decide to commit acts of vandalism and robbery all across Moebius.
Scourge also antagonizes Dr. Kintobor, a benevolent scientist that tries to bring the best for the Planet’s citizens.
Eventually he becomes the King of Moebius, but Sonic managed do defeat him. He plans to have his revenge on Sonic. This one is a bad boy, he’s an asshole Sonic. I kinda like him. 8/10.
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1993E - CYBORG SONIC)
In this universe, Robotnik manages to capture the Freedom Fighters, but something goes awry during the roboticization process, and as a result, Sonic and the others ended up as cyborgs.
A lot more stronger than they originally were, the Freedom Fighters decide to end with Robotnik once for all. But, Robotnik roboticizes himself as a last ditch resort, becoming the mighty Robo-Robotnik.
6.5/10, he mostly exists to make The Terminator References
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1993F - SONIC BATMAN)
He is the night. He is also the speed. 
8/10.
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 616 - SONIC WOLVERINE)
An angry Canadian Sonic with claws.
8/10.
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 697 - FREEDOM FIGHTERS OF THE GALAXY) This Sonic spent a while in space after some circunstances. Thanks to Einsten’s Law of Relativity, when he returns to Mobius, 2000 years have gone by. This Sonic allies himself with the descendants of the Freedom Dighters, and tries to stop Silver Snively and Robotniklactus’ evil schemes.
He’s kinda lame. A 5/10.
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1993FT - Light Mobius)
This Sonic accomplished defeating Robotnik, and with Mobius finally in peace, he married Princess Sally. He grew up, became an adult and had kids.
But he didn’t count with the fact that Robotnik had a Plan B-- the scientist sent his inteligence to a space ship, and from space he sent nukes to Mobius-- killing this version of Sonic in the process. This Robotnik would eventually go to universe 1993 and adopt the name of Eggman.
F to pay respects for this Sonic. F/10.
Tumblr media
(UNIVERSE 1993FT2 - MOBIUS X YEARS LATER)
This Sonic went through a lot. After having to rewrite his own timeline to save the universe, he had to win back his friends’ friendship and the love of his life, Sally.He eventually marries Sally, has two kids, and lives happily. Can you believe this Sonic is almost 50 years old? He’s 47 years old!8/10, a good dad

i made like four pieces of concept art for a stranger things/star wars AU so as promised here’s the actual notes behind them (+ like a small stoncy sketch at the end)
whats the plan?
Originally, it was gonna be a fanfic(might still be) but im considering a comic format? but moreso in the style of Homestuck/MSPA bc im shit at keeping up w a background
so if i did that itd probably be a side blog 
but i have like
so many projects on backburners and idk enough abt star wars to even pull it off
i watched uhhhhhh 1,3,4,5,6,7, and 9, solo, and the mandalorian
so like what the hell is the plot anyway?
when it was going to be in a fanfiction format, i was going to make it revolve around Robin(naturally, she’s my favorite character) and Steve(who is my second favorite) so it revolves around them, but i might change that 
anyway
Missions start flooding a local bounty hunter guild concerning reports of kids being taken from planets by a group of people nicknamed “Scoopers” to be pitted against one another in an underground fight club. The mission to uncover the operation falls on the head of the guild, Hopper(who’s a washed-up Mandalorian bc i said so). Robin, a rookie bounty hunter, catches wind of the operation and persuades Hopper to take her with him on the mission.
Meanwhile, Steve(a spice runner) is on his way to his next client, who just so happen to be the “Scoopers”. 
they all meet at the base and things happen. cant spoil jic this is something i end up pursuing
so what are the robin notes
ngl fam i got shit for robin haha shes just the everyman trope for the story
probably an orphan in this story? but def not a Mandalorian of any sort
her suit is a combo of Samus’ light suit and Valkyrie’s costume from Ragnarok. (and in a way, metal sonic and mega man bc im trash)
she really wants a T4-M33 navigator droid
you got any steve notes?
BOY DO I EVER!
you’re just in luck bc *slaps the roof of this post* this baby can fit so many steve notes in it
on his homeplanet(its probably named Hawkins), he underwent knight training along w Nancy and Jonathan.
(you might notice some similarities between his outfit and the ones Mike and the other kids wear in the previous post)
Steve and Nancy were very much together, and they were the top knights in the program. Both were up for the position of the prince’s personal knight. The identity of the prince, until coronation, was unknown to the public, and so when Jonathan selected Nancy for his personal knight, Steve skipped town, and eventually, skipped planet altogether. 
but he didnt plan ahead, almost got his ass handed to him by some ex-hutts, and scrambled back to Hawkins. Joyce, who i think would be accurate to describe as the Queen Matron of Hawkins, gave him a chance to work at least as a top officer. 
during his return to Hawkins, Nancy gave him a pretty cold shoulder, only adding to Steve’s sense of displacement. 
he was given the task of hunting down some spice runners who’d stolen a bounty from one of their quarries, and fueled by resentment, he joined them instead. 
on one of his spice runs, he came across a rather wealthy Wookie family. he noticed, however, their son was rather sheltered, and took a keen interest in the business Steve had come into
it took him exactly three weeks for him to realize the kid had snuck onto his ship. the disappearing rations didnt occur to him until the packs were near empty.
he decided to take him with him on his spice run when the kid expressed extreme turmoil at home with his magnate family. but Steve sees himself more as the babysitter friend than the mom friend, having made a silent vow to return the kid(which was promised to himself after one adventure, which turned into five, and now they’re up to fifty. It’s been a couple years.)
so now he just does spice runs w dustin bc every story needs a lone star and a barf— i mean a han solo and chewie
god will anyone ever think of the children
no bc the teens are more interesting in s2-3 imo 
except eleven, she’s always great
but since u asked
Mike, Will, Lucas, and Max are all going through knight training on Hawkins. Lumax is a thing, and Byler is starting to be.
i dont get caught up in those ships too much and just try to go w whats canon since they’re kids for the most part
the whole plot kicks off w Mike and Will getting kidnapped(well, mostly Will and Mike just so happens to be there so he’s taken too)
and Lucas and Max go after them.
At the underground fight club they’re taken to, Mike befriends the top fighter who’s named Eleven because she’s the 11th force user they’ve managed to find. and eleven is,, dare i say,, unusually strong in the force
Nancy can use the force, Jonathan and Mike can’t. Will is force sensitive.
i guess i should mention if its not already obvious but Lucas is a Rodian and Max is a Twi-lek
ok yeah thats cool but what about billy
nothing about billy. or kali. for now
or barb
but they do exist in this au.
theyre also wips tho haha
so what now
nothing. for now
if u wanna know more drop me an ask and i’ll elaborate
until then i’ll probably do something for this once my robali fic on ao3 is finished.
anyway thanks for readin my nonsense heres a stoncy sketch for ur troubles

time for episode 3 i guess! wish i could focus on the things i gotta do but something’s bugging me and i just can’t, i might have to start from scratch but anyway...
• manic wants to find a place where he belongs... • why were the triplets born in... an alternate dimension??? what • dingo is a tree and it’s freaking me out • sonic: hey did you notice anything strange about that tree   manic and sonia: no we did not see the canine face with stupid glasses staring at us directly as we passed by • the fact that manic’s drums can cause earthquakes and stuff is pretty neat • i seriously feel bad for dingo at this point • there’s a camera angle where it looks like manic’s levitating in front of sonic when sonic is supposed to be dragging him along real fast • i don’t understand why the bad guys are like “lmao nature and clean things are stinky” like i know you’re bad but like ??? man • i think this show would be much more visually appealing if they used brighter backgrounds like in mobodoon • again how old are they supposed to be, it’s their birthday? they’re so small • i know mayor winnieham (how the fuck do you spell that) is a horse but she looks like a soft dragon, she’s so nice and i actually like her voice • hooray for socialism • sonic sniffs and it sounds like jaleel had a stuffy nose that day • horse lady is so nice but a ton of nice people in this cartoon are traitors so i’m like :grimace: • A CHAOS EMERALD • manic is so overwhelmed by the fact that someone cared about him and his siblings that he starts to like fall backwards and the lady has to push a chair under him, he’s crying someone hug this boy • “sonic’s always been cool, having this mondo world as his home” sorta implies that he had adventures before all this, i only say this because i’ve been trying to slap together a timeline and i think i made underground take place between satam and sonic 3? i forget exactly
Tumblr media
• h • you’d think horse lady would be more excited that they’ve returned and stuff • gee sonia why does your mom let you have super speed and strength • did she recognize dingo this time?? she got mud on her and immediately attacked him so like... would she do that to anyone??? • the people who wrote this show don’t understand how siblings interact with each other, i don’t call my brother “bro” every two seconds and i don’t think anybody does • okay why does the horse lady say they were born in this nursery room, i would assume that that’s... not true... please tell me there’s a hospital or something in this city • three episodes into the series and manic’s like “i’m gonna stay here and break up the band :D” • horse lady made evil eyebrows i don’t trust her all adults are bad • SONG TIME AGAIN, SONIC UNDERGROUND STYLE • I think this is one of the only songs where manic sings and it’s not even clear that it’s him? i was told that it was him singing • GSDJG MANIC’S HAIR IS BIRDS • sometimes the baby triplets are cute and sometimes they’re terrifying • they reused animation that was used like just before the song started • manic goes “wow” in his normal voice right in the middle of the song • i actually really like this song, but like... the singing voice is odd, a bit nasally. other than that it’s good and i’d listen to it again, like... 9/10 i think, i’ll hum it absentmindedly after the episode is done. if they re-recorded this for any reason or if there was a cover of it i’d be pretty happy about that! • sleet unrolls a huge sheet of paper with absolutely nothing on it • the background characters in mobodoon aren’t as hideous as the normal background characters • sonic leaving fire everywhere when he runs seems like it would be an issue at some point • sleet and dingo are terrorists • they deadass just stole a family’s whole house • THE CHAOS EMERALD • i’m calling it a chaos emerald, apparently it controls the daylight cycle and structural integrity of the whole dimension which is odd • if she’s so worried that mobodoon will fade why don’t they evacuate? unless they can’t without the chaos emerald or something • apparently they can leave whenever because sonic’s back with sleet and dingo • they used footage from this episode in the previous episode’s music segment...? i wonder how production was • sonia and manic fall from the sky • “manic, hold all the important doohickeys while we do the cool stuff” • dingo’s fucking feral in this segment holy shit calm down • the cave of wonders................ • MANIC HAS LITTLE SHARP TEETH • manic did it!! • i still don’t get how mobodoon works • how unstable is that dimension if the chaos emerald being gone for an hour max is enough to make it nearly collapse • sonic called dingo “dingus” and i have no idea how old that term is
Tumblr media
• manic looks like a very small child waiting for his mom to say he did a good job saying “thank you” to the grocery store checkout person and that’s adorable but also he looks goofy as shit • this poor boy, i imagine he just wants a mother figure, horse lady has her hand on his shoulder and she’s probably one of the few dependably nice people they’ve encountered in a while • aw, sonic and sonia like... acknowledge that manic is happy here and are willing to let him stay in mobodoon, that’s pretty wholesome. i feel like this was supposed to be an emotional beat but like... bad pacing kinda mucks it up
Tumblr media
• “don’t forget to visit” god, my heart, he says it so gently like poor baby • “oh i almost forgot that your mother who has been absent in your lives since you were literal babies and that you’ve been risking your lives to find stopped by during the climax of the episode, my mistake”
Tumblr media
• okay, i can see the horse part of her now maybe more of a donkey • “together at last” is one of the audio blurbs they play and they say it like they’ve been separated forever • they knocked sleet back into mobodoon like that solves the problem??? • i kinda like how they replay part of the song at the end of the episode to like... reestablish an idea in a different light? like when it played the first time it’s like “oh i found my childhood home and the place where i came from” and now it’s like “i’ve found the place where i belong with my loved ones” and that’s actually really good imo • i feel like manic has the most potential for depth out of all of them just because if you look any deeper into what’s happening in the show it gets kinda sad? [slaps roof of manic] this bad boy can fit so much emotional trauma in it

Dude, you can't just say you have headcanons for Sonia and Manic without explaining further! ... Could you share them please?
absolutely! and I’ve got some for Queen Aleena too! they’re mostly, like, little tweaks that help them fit into game canon and lightly rewrite their personalities for added depth, but here you go:
- in my headcanon for his origins in the game-canon, Sonic was originally from a hidden magic kingdom that was at war with some kind of Secret Evil (I like to think that the kingdom was hidden deep under ground because ... you know ... Sonic Underground lol). soon, it was prophesied that the kingdom would fall and the queen’s children, Sonic among them, would die, ending the royal bloodline along with the country, unless Aleena separated from her children and sent them out into the world on their own. Aleena initially refused to believe in the prophecy, but in the end, a battle broke out between her people and their enemy, and as her soldiers fought a losing battle around her, Aleena was forced to realize that the prophecy had been correct. as the battle raged on, she took her children, only 4-5 years old at the time, to a secret escape route and instructed them to run away while she prevented the enemy from finding the exit.
- after fleeing their home, Sonic, Sonia and Manic were separated and wandered the world by themselves for a while, trying to find each other as well as a new home.
- Sonia was eventually taken in by a rich family and raised as one of their own children. however, she found the upper class environment and her adoptive family’s attitudes stifling and selfish, and as soon as she turned 15, she hit the road. these days, she cruises around the world on her motorcycle and helps people in need. she’s still on relatively good terms with her adoptive family and she does have a taste for the finer things in life, but she strongly prefers to get her hands dirty and make a difference instead of whatever her adoptive parents were doing. she has a distant memory of her true origins, but her family never believed her when she told them about it, so she doesn’t fully trust it herself and hasn’t tried to pursue more information about her past. she has the power of super strength. in this continuity, she’s the one who can play electric guitar.
- Manic was adopted and raised by a group of thieves, and, while poor, had a loving home and a supportive family. at a young age, he gained an interest in extreme gear and became involved in illegal championships. his heavily modded gear had a habit of exploding before he could reach the finish line, but except for that little detail, he became a master at the sport and more than a little famous in certain circles. he also made many friends because of his friendly nature. he doesn’t remember much of anything about where he originally came from, and so has decided to let it lie. unlike Sonic and Sonia, he doesn’t have any powers, but he’s the craftiest of the three and gets things done regardless.
- what happened to Sonic in between losing contact with his siblings and the series’ present time is anyone’s guess. he doesn’t like to dwell on the past and prefers to live in the moment. if he remembers anything about his mom or his siblings, he at least never talks about them. it’s possible that all his travelling around may initially have been an attempt to find his way back to them, but nothing ever came off it.
- later down the line, when the triplets are in their late teens, they will eventually find each other again and discover where they came from. together, they will locate what remains of their old kingdom and find their mother still ruling the remnants of a mostly destroyed civilization, which now lives in fear of the evil returning and wiping them out for good. Aleena has lost hope for her people, but when her children return, they’ll help her defeat their old enemy, so at the very least, the people who remain there will be safe. all three of them, being free spirits in their own ways, will be uncomfortable when they find out that they’re royalty, and reject coming home so they can go back to their own lives - but they stay in contact with their mother and visit often. a few years later, when her kingdom has stabilized, Aleena will abdicate and allow her people to rule themselves, so she can go live closer to her children and finally have a normal life under the sun.
and that’s that on that! it’s not much, but I really just wanted an excuse to import these characters to my favorite canon haha. I also did some v cute redesigns of all three of them way back in 2018 that I don’t think I ever uploaded to tumblr, so here they are! Sonia and Manic are at the age they are when Sonic first meets them (18-20-ish?), which is why they look older than he does now.

So there’s this little cartoon you may have heard of...
Tumblr media
As I’ve said on this blog before, I’d never watched all of SatAM. This might be shocking to hear from someone who runs a blog dedicated to Archie Sonic and one of the top twenty Bunnie Rabbot fangirls in the world. But it’s true.
SatAM was very difficult to track down compared to other Sonic cartoons when I was a kid, and I just never got around to watching it as an adult. So for the longest time, I had only ever seen the first episode, which I found uploaded in parts on YouTube in 2007. As the one cartoon featuring the characters I liked from the comics, it became sort of this holy grail of Sonic media for me as a kid, especially with people online always talking it up as the best thing ever and petitioning for a revival. Hell, to this day, a lot of people hold it up as this masterpiece and act like the Archie comics were a complete mockery of it
Anyway so I finally got around to watching the whole series with my boyfriend these past couple weeks, and it was pretty good. So instead of covering a comic today, here are some thoughts on the cartoon that started it all
General Thoughts
SatAM is a pretty good show. It isn’t the greatest piece of Sonic media ever, unlike what some older fans will tell you. It might not even be the best Sonic cartoon (you could easily make a case for the Japanese version of Sonic X, or Sonic Boom if you’re looking for something more comedic). It hasn’t aged the most gracefully, in some ways. The animation’s cheap, the stories sometimes bland. But for a DiC-produced video game cartoon from the early ‘90s, it’s really solid
I think that in many ways, SatAM is carried by the strength of its ideas over its actual execution. The darker, more serious tone is a really cool idea, even if at times it can get a little dull, and even if the show actually gets silly as hell pretty often. (This is a show where Snively literally tortures a captive Antoine by preparing French cuisine improperly.) That opening scene of Robotropolis in the first episode actually sets the mood really well and feels like it came straight out of some cyberpunk anime from the ‘80s or ‘90s. The concept of Robotnik turning people into robot slaves is really cool, even if surprisingly little was done with this aside from Uncle Chuck’s storyline. And I think the Freedom Fighters make a great supporting cast for Sonic, even if the writers didn’t use them to their full potential
Interestingly, I’d often heard from fans that season one was the stronger of the two, when I’d say that the opposite is true. Season one episodes were pretty samey, usually involving low stakes missions to Robotropolis with no real continuity, and Sally ended up being a damsel in distress more than I’d like--hell, so did Bunnie in a few episodes. It wasn’t bad, but it was highly repetitive, and I got a little bored at times. Season two had a few real stinkers (the Antoine episodes) and Dulcy was an unwelcome addition, but I thought the heavier focus on continuity gave the season some real momentum and more emotional weight, which made it way more enjoyable overall
Tumblr media
Things I Liked
Sonic. I quite liked this version of Sonic, actually! Jaleel White is a great Sonic, and he was written pretty well. At times the extremely tubular ‘90s lingo was grating (I never wanna hear “Gotta juice!” again), but I was surprised to see that this version of Sonic had a lot of heart. He really cared about the well-being of his friends and Uncle Chuck, and they even let him cry a couple times. I thought they struck a good balance between snark and sincerity with him
Sally. I don’t think SatAM Sally was perfect, but I liked her. I’m still of the opinion that she should have been given more ways to defend herself physically (maybe some kind of power of her own) so that Sonic didn’t have to save her as much, but I liked the banter she and Sonic had. Unlike the early Archie comics, Sally doesn’t come off as the bossy girlfriend who ruins Sonic’s fun. Maybe it’s Jaleel White and Kath Soucie’s performances doing most of the work, but they had a fun back and forth dynamic, with Sally’s sarcasm keeping Sonic’s ego in check, but there still being clear chemistry between the two of them
I also liked the greatly reduced emphasis on her being a princess compared to much of Archie’s material. Like yeah, it’s there. Her dad’s the king, and left her some classified info via Nicole. But her status doesn’t really affect things much. They don’t talk about her having this grand destiny and being the next in line to rule. It’s clear that she’s in charge of the Freedom Fighters not because of her status, but because she’s smart, brave, and gets shit done. That’s the Sally I like.
Plus! In the finale, Sally insisted upon going with Sonic for the final confrontation, and was a crucial part of the climax. Her powering up with Sonic and matching his speed and strength ruled. Compare that to the climactic defeat of Robotnik in Archie, where she was fucking dead
Robotnik. I don’t think much needs to be said here. Jim Cummings rules as Robotnik, like everyone has always said. He’s just so evil and so much fun to watch
Snively??? I’ve never cared for Snively as a character, but Charlie Adler rules and his over-the-top performance made the character way funnier than he should’ve been. Just something about all the little noises he makes, and the way he almost shifts into the Red Guy voice at times
Nicole. It was fun to see Nicole start to get more of a personality in season two, having some banter with Sonic and also picking up some slang from him. It makes the later decision to turn Sally’s computer into a full character (which would have happened in season three, and obviously eventually became a big subplot in the comics) make a lot of sense
King Acorn. While he was only around briefly, I liked that he wasn’t a huge dick, unlike Archie’s King Max
Tumblr media
Things I Didn’t Like
The misuse of the other Freedom Fighters. This is, by far, the show’s greatest crime.
I already write approximately 100k words a week on this blog about how I think Bunnie Rabbot is amazing and criminally underused, so I’ll keep this brief, but I was shocked to see how little she was used in this show. People tend to say Dulcy stole her screentime in season two, but she didn’t have much to do in the first season either! We somehow never got a single episode focusing on her. The one where she got temporarily deroboticized focused much more on Uncle Chuck. We never got to learn the story behind her roboticization, or delved into her feelings on the matter much. She mostly just served as a positive, lighthearted supporting member of the team who acts cute and gets some funny lines, but usually stays home
Antoine might have been even worse, honestly. Like, they used him so much! They had multiple episodes focusing entirely on him! And yet I’m not sure he ever really helped. Sonic and Sally kept taking him along, but every single time it felt like it would’ve been a wiser decision to bring Bunnie instead. The jokes about his broken English were just dumb, and god, the way he constantly hits on Sally and starts kissing her hand at the most inappropriate times is just SO fucking creepy. SatAM Antoine is just a horrible, one-dimensional stereotype. There’s a reason why readers of the Archie comics wanted him out of the series until later writers majorly rehabilitated him
Rotor also didn’t get much use, which was a shame, but it at least felt like he was used efficiently. I got the vibe that Rotor was much more bitter about the war with Robotnik than his friends, and it would’ve been interesting to see this explored more. At least we got that one fun episode where he went to space with Sonic
Dulcy. Oh my fucking god. I wanted to like Dulcy! I really did! But most of the time she was just a clutz used for comic relief, and they kept reusing the same joke where she crashed, bumped her head, got dizzy, and thought she was talking to her mom. This happened in almost every episode she was in.
The other miscellaneous Freedom Fighters. Like in the early Archie comics, none of the other miscellaneous Mobians they meet were as interesting as the core cast. They just always felt very bland and I was never as invested in them as the writers wanted me to be. Ari was boring, and that episode where they found the underground city and this other dude started hitting on Sally was a drag. Lupe’s cute though
Rings. This is a common problem in Sonic adaptations, but the fact that rings always serve as Sonic’s instant win button kind of sucks. Basically any time Sonic’s in a pinch, he pulls a ring out of his backpack, powers up, and wins. Not exactly a recipe for suspenseful action
Oh, also, I did kinda find it weird how much Sonic and Sally kissed? Like, all the time? Often while their friends just stand there and stare at them? Not something I’d expect from a Sonic cartoon
Tumblr media
Things Archie Did Better
I’ll limit this to the first 50 issues or so, since I don’t think it would be fair to compare two short seasons of SatAM to the highlights of nearly 500 issues of comics
Tails. Tails is okay in SatAM, Archie just used him as Sonic’s sidekick way more. He was barely even in the show. Poor little guy only gets to play dirt hockey all day
Bunnie. Again, Bunnie was underutilized in both series, but the Archie comics did her better. They actually showed the story of how she got roboticized (even if it was a silly story), and they got to flesh her out a bit more. Gallagher showing that she was a carrot farmer before her roboticization and saying she wanted to be a hairdresser was at least something. And as I keep harping on, Rich Koslowski’s backup story in #37 where we find out Bunnie has recurring nightmares about her robot parts taking over and making her a threat to her friends? This single backup story did more to flesh her out than all 26 episodes of SatAM combined
Antoine. Not hard to do better than SatAM here, really. He was really bad early on, serving as little more than Sonic’s punching bag, but eventually they started to set up a romance between him and Bunnie and explored his past a bit, saying that Antoine’s father (his personal role model) was a member of the royal guard who was roboticized in the war. While he still had a long way to go, these were important first steps towards him being a decent character. Hell, these days, being Bunnie’s love interest is one of Antoine’s defining characteristics! And it doesn’t come from the cartoon at all
Roboticization in general. I was surprised how little this came up in the cartoon! In the comics, it’s such a central element. We see more of the heroes’ loved ones turned into robots, and we even got some fun stories where characters like Sonic and Sally were roboticized temporarily. The Freedom Fighters’ efforts to reverse the process was a major part of the plot for quite a while. Bunnie’s fear of losing control is a pretty important part of her character (even if it was only touched on briefly), and after they’re rescued, the rest of the Mobians fear that the “Robians” (including Sonic’s entire family) will turn evil again. It comes up a lot! There are interesting things to discuss here! But SatAM only really talks about Uncle Chuck. We never even see what happened to everyone else
Tumblr media
Closing Thoughts
SatAM is not the best show in the world, but it is a solid and enjoyable one. It’s easy to see why people who grew up with it are fond of it, even if I think that it’s long past time certain fans quit acting like it’s the only valid take on the Sonic source material and petitioning for a third season. At the very least, the concepts and characters introduced here are strong ones, and it’s easy to see how they spawned over 20 years of comics exploring said ideas in greater detail. While I’m not sure I could recommend it to non-fans, I think it’s definitely worth checking out for Sonic fans who missed out on it (especially fans of the Archie comics)
Anyway I got to see Bunnie dropkick some Swatbots twice her height so I had fun

Nilo Blues Pays Homage to Cult Anime Film Akira in “Akira Harakiri” [Premiere + Q&A]
Tumblr media
Photo: Frank Lin
The city of Toronto never ceases to amaze us. What can arguably be considered the epicenter for a new wave of hip-hop, Toronto has become notorious for generating underground sensation after sensation. Through their cultivation of hypnotic and innovative soundscapes, to their impeccable flows and lyricism, Toronto has solidified an extensive roster of industry frontrunners, and Nilo Blues is proving to be the newest addition to the team.
Despite being a self-proclaimed poster child for Generation Z, the 21-year-old is anything but ordinary. Growing up in the Toronto art scene, Blues encompasses what it means to be a multi-hyphenate creative, utilizing his talents as a singer, rapper, dancer, and producer to tell stories that grapple with his Asian identity within the context of western society. 
His debut single, “No Risk Involved,” is an intrepid statement on Asian cultural identity and showcases how Blues’ struggle to live and create beyond rigid stereotypes has ultimately fueled him to pave his own way, in music and life. His nuanced and complex approach to the modern trap soundscape mirrors that of his own evolution and understanding of his own personal identity. Woven within his uncompromisingly honest storytelling and conviction lies the infectious hooks, melodic arrangements, and unsparing production of a true, multi-hyphenate artist. And despite “No Risk Involved” being the official introduction to his discography, we’re here to tell you that it’s just the tip of the iceberg for Blues.
As we patiently await his debut EP, set to release this summer, Blues gives us a peek at what’s to come with his most recent drop, “Akira Harakiri.” Explosive and audacious, this track has the power to cause havoc to the silencers of a corrupted system. Compiled within roaring trap-laden beats and terse hip-hop rhythms, Blues’ adroit vocals and dynamic fluidity convey a sense of fervor, all while challenging the status quo of Asian representation within American culture. 
“Akira Harakiri” pays homage to the anime that Blues grew up with, most notably the raw tenacity of Akira and the thriving energy of Dragonball Z, which influenced its sonic foundation and cinematic execution. In an effort to gain a more comprehensive understanding of his artistry, we spoke with Blues about his position in the current Toronto-trap soundscape and what motivates him to create breakout tracks like “No Risk Involved” and “Akira Harakiri.”    
Ones To Watch: It seems like dancing used to be a significant part of your life before music. What sparked your transition?
Nilo Blues: Growing up I was surrounded by music, whether it be at home or in the dance studio. I always had this natural appreciation for music grow in me because of all the different sounds I was surrounded by. I remember having 10-hour dance rehearsal days and then coming home to record photo booth videos of me and my best friend spitting melodies and lyrics over beats we found. I started producing at 16 when I discovered the iMaschine app for iPhone. I would spend hours trying to cook up beats until one day I decided to learn Ableton Live. My mentor cracked it on my laptop and started showing me the ropes, instantly I was hooked. My musical journey honestly started out from me just wanting to make music I could dance to. I owe a lot of myself to dance. 100%.
Has being a dancer influenced your creative process at all?
Dance has influenced me creatively in many different aspects of the process. Growing up as a dancer, you immediately instill a high level of discipline and work ethic as a young child. We were training like athletes and expressing like actors. It shaped the way I hear music (especially my own), it developed my approach on execution and staying on my P’s and Q’s, and it allows me to perform and add a visual component to the sonics. I grew up admiring Michael Jackson, James Brown, JT, Usher and now Bruno Mars. They all hold all aspects of their art to such a high standard. I’m trying to set that exact same standard and quality, through my own vernacular.
Growing up in what can be considered as the epicenter of Canadian hip-hop, do you think Toronto, and the artists that have put it on the map, have influenced your sound at all?
I started learning how to make music right when the 2015-2016 Toronto rap boom happened, so definitely. I feel like Toronto artists collectively do such an amazing job at emulating the vibe of Toronto. At a time where Toronto was only synonymous with Drake (the GOAT), The Weeknd, and PND, Toronto artists really stepped up to the plate and let the world hear the type of shit we’re on. It's super inspiring, and I just want to keep pushing the envelope. I’m trying to land where no one has before, and make my mark in everything I set my mind to. I’m hungry and I want to get great shit done. I thank Toronto and the lively music scene in the city for sparking that.
Your first single “No Risk Involved” highlights the misrepresentation of Asian identity in mainstream culture. Why was it so important for you to create your own narrative and debunk westernized versions of Asian culture and identity?
My family was the main inspiration for wanting to evoke that conversation. Western media loves to exploit the great ideas from different cultures without ever giving credit to the cultures that cultivated them to begin with. They perpetuate false narratives and generalize us in order to keep control. I’ve seen what my family has gone through in order to even be here. My mom is Filipino, and my dad is Viet-Chin, so I’ve had my fair share of perspectives at a young age. One thing I can guarantee is that Asians aren’t as one-dimensional as the media portrays us to be. It’s about genuinely telling our stories, and being able to control the narrative in the world we share with the culture.
How was it filming the “No Risk Involved” video? Did you have a vision for how you wanted it to look?
It was amazing. I definitely felt back in my element while performing on-screen. The positive energy and hard work by everyone on set was the difference-maker. I feel like that energy shines through the video. I’m so grateful to have had such an amazing cast and crew, they fucking killed it. As for the concept, NRI was one of the very first concepts I started developing with my team. Had my first meeting with Angelica Milash, the director of the video, and everything clicked. The inspiration was drawn from aesthetics you’d see in legendary Hong Kong movies like Young & Dangerous. We also based the female looks on different characters from movies that included Asian characters with exaggerated Asian female stereotypes.
youtube
You once tweeted “I love good music but when an artist can pull off a great visual it tells you a lot about that artist.” Do you think it’s important for artists to be active creative directors in the videos they come out with?
Personally, I love dipping my fingers in every pot when it comes to my creative direction. I believe it takes a strong team in order to create beautiful shit, and, as the artist, I want to lead the team to victory. If one of us wins, we all win. Being active as a leader is what’s important. Sharing ideas, and building with the people around you. That’s how the best ideas shine through. You just gotta be a leader with this shit. Take control of your vision and work together to execute. If you aren’t paying attention to every aspect of your craft, you’re only going to see one perspective. At the end of the day, no one will execute your own ideas better than yourself. We all have that capability.
Your newest single “Akira Harakiri” is inspired by the 1988 cult cyberpunk film Akira. How did this iconic anime influence your lyrical and production process?
I wanted the essence of the track to emulate the same essence of the movie. The production was what sparked the idea. Colin Munroe was working on the beat while we bounced ideas around and I instantly felt the beat belonged in an anime. Akira was an automatic click. This song is supposed to feel like a song The Capsules gang would bump around Neo-Tokyo. I loved the dynamic between Kaneda and Tetsuo in the film, and wanted to combine the charisma and poise of Kaneda with the maniacal energy of Tetsuo. That’s also something I want to tap into on the visual component as well. This song is an homage to a visual masterpiece, as well as an iconic moment in film and culture.
What are some of your favorite anime films?
I grew up watching anime on TV like Dragonball Z, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Pokémon, Digimon. As I grew older, I wasn’t exposed to as much as before, but I rediscovered my love for it in high school when I binge-watched Death Note twice in succession. Now I’m trying to watch as much as possible. I feel like I have so much to catch up on lol.
What are some of your goals for 2020? Both as an artist and as a human being?
I want to work on killing the urge of having a cigarette or vaping again. I quit at the end of 2019, and started working out four times a day with my trainer. I’m trying to stay consistent in doing my laundry but that shit fucking sucks. I'm trying to meditate more, as I’ve recently picked up on transcendental meditation and want to keep consistent. Other than that I wanna keep dropping cool shit and repping what I know best. I wanna keep pushing myself to my limits and keep evolving. I hope people find strength in my music and I want to evoke new thought and conversation.
What can we expect to hear more of in your future projects?
More genuine energy. You’ll definitely be able to feel exactly how I felt when creating the music, from the growing pains to the gratitude. More singing too. You’ll be able to identify the spectrum of my sound, and how dynamic it is.
Who are your Ones to Watch?
I’ve been on my hip-hop shit as of late, so I’ve been bumping a lot of Kaash Paige, Fivio Foreign, The Kid LAROI and shit. Deb Never is an artist that I've been wanting to work with personally. Out of Toronto, definitely keep your eye out for Stefani Kimber. One of the most talented artists I’ve ever heard and a great human being. She’s definitely one of my top Ones to Watch artists.

I Don’t Dance To Dubstep part 3 (A Deadpool Fic)
Part One, Part Two
Here is a deleted scene of dialogue for this chapter if you are interested!
A/N: Okay so the conversation with Cable about the scars isn't intended to be a metaphor for self-harm or hint at bad parenting. Instead, it is meant to be a metaphor for embracing ones perfectly imperfect flaws like stretch marks or cellulite or skin discolouration. In short, it's nothing ominous. Also, this is the longest chapter yet! And don’t mind the fact I inserted myself into the fic, he does like to break that fourth wall of realism that darned Wade Wilson! Readers mutant power given alter ego is DJ, so no ‘Y/N’ in this chapter.
Words: 2399
Warnings: Mature Language,
(Gif isn’t mine)
Tumblr media
"Okay be honest, what would you want your stripper name to be?" Wade continued his useless musings with Domino over the comms.
"That's easy: Lady Luck," Domino said without having to think about it.
"Huh… I'd go with Shiklah the Divorcer, abbreviate it to STD." Wade said wryly. There was a larger story behind his words.
"What?" Domino asked, completely oblivious to the context of the STD jeer, although truthfully, no one else seemed to get it either.
"Are we all in position?" asked Wade over the secure channel. Your earpiece felt like nails on a chalkboard due to your ability to focus sound waves. Your head snapped to the side and you made a hissing noise. Cable, who had been partnered up with you shot a concerned look your way. You raised your scarred hands up to signal you were fine.
"We're in position," Cable answered, the feedback from your proximity to each other caused another intense soundwave to vibrate through you. You winced and decided to remove the earpiece. "Won't you need that?" Cable asked you.
You gave a half crooked smile, "That's what you're here for, isn't it? Kick ass, not take names and listen to Wade's annoying voice shouting profane nonsense into your ears?"
Cable hummed, unamused by the image you just painted in his mind, "Unfortunately," he said. He opened his fanny pack- Ahem! His utility bag- and grabbed his lip balm, applying some on with a very serious expression on his face while maintaining eye contact with you. It felt both intimate and weird all at once. You were definitely confused by it. According to Wade, he did that a lot.
You cackled in a dramatic fashion after the eye contact turned from intense to awkwardly silly, filling the empty street with a Wicked-Witch-of-the-West sounding laugh echoing through the empty street. Bored, you used your abilities to amplify the frequency, making the laugh boom louder.
Cable tilted his head as Wade undoubtedly had something to say about your use of your powers for no reason other than boredom, "Wade said to keep it down to the 'sexy octave levels of James Earl Jones'," Cable relayed to you.
You whispered "Fuck you, Wade Wilson," and amplified the sound of your words into an even louder pitch until the glass windows groaned from the intensity and Cable was forced to cover his ears from the sheer volume of it.
"That's not exactly keeping things discrete, DJ, might want to tone it down a bit!" Cable shouted in discomfort, his words drowned out by the frequency of your own.
"Yeah, well we've been sitting in this car park dressed like background characters of a Will and Grace special for two hours now. If she was indeed on her way here, she'd have been here by now!" You huffed.
The two of you were on rear exit duty. If Wade and Domino failed to trap and kidnap the new contract, the two of you would give her a rude awakening. To your annoyance, your target was uncharacteristically tardy today, so for now, all four of you waited, dressed in the most unflattering disguises, staying incognito while stalking around the building your target regularly frequented. It was a Chinese restaurant that acted as a front for an illegal underground gambling ring. Your target was a pill pushing 'Madame' who had a habit of gambling away half her profits.
Cable closed his eyes and leaned against the hood of the car you drove in, it was a taxi, Deadpool had called up his pal Dopinder, who was out on a coffee run, to drive the four of you to the location. You sat cross-legged, shades shielding your eyes from the sun, on top of the warm yellow hood, there was an odd impression on the opposite side of the bumper that looked like the kind of mark someone who had been run over would leave.
Cable was taking slow, thoughtful breaths, not at all bored by the inactivity. You had noticed he always carried a teddy bear everywhere with him, it was quite the juxtaposition to his otherwise serious, brooding default setting. Letting curiosity win over you, you blurted out: "What's the deal with little Osito there?"
Osito was Spanish for bear. You had grown up in a bilingual household. Your mom was the one who prominently spoke Spanish at home, you had an easy time picking it up as a kid.
"What's the deal with the scars on your hands?" He asked, deflecting his personal question by asking you a personal question of your own. Smartass. He thought he had the upper hand, he assumed you wouldn't be comfortable talking about your scars, everyone always assumed that. He was in for a rude awakening!
"Casualty of being such a badass!" you quipped playfully. Cable gave you a small chuckle making you feel like you had just paved through a new milestone in your… acquaintance-ship?
"Is that so?"
"I managed to bring the great Cable to his knees on our first meeting, so yeah, I say so," you smirked proudly at him and he scowled.
"As a kid, my parents didn't understand what I was. I didn't either. I'd cause small quakes when I was angry or sad or happy or excited. Murdered a lot of Mom's fine china. Busted Dad's TV once. Eventually, they couldn't pretend anymore, and I saw how much I scared them. I scared myself if I'm honest. They told me to be normal, stop with all my craziness. I didn't know any better, I didn't know my abilities were as much a part of me as the colour of my eyes or the slant of my nose, so I repressed it. These-" you rotated your hands this way and that, giving Cable a show of spirit fingers, showcasing all the scars and tears from years of cuts and numerous surgeries, "These were the resulting effect. I broke many fingers. Some cases the waves would slice through skin. After my eighth break, I said 'Fuck it!' I began to use my abilities freely and openly. Of course, I was smart enough to know when to be discrete and when to wreak untold havoc upon some asshole who groped my ass in high school. And I haven't looked back ever since."
You had shocked Cable with your candour. You never minded explaining the scars, they were just younger versions of your many battle wounds. They made you what you are -which may not be perfect, but you couldn't give a flying fuck if you didn't conform to societies controlled demographic of normalcy. You were a rebel all your own. You gave Cable a wink, not at all shy or embarrassed that you just spilt private secrets so nonchalantly.
"Jesus," he said, only with less sarcasm then you ever thought him able to muster. "Did you kill him? The Asshole in high school?"
You laughed, amused at his question. He must think you some sociopath. Then again with an apathetic partner like Truth Dog and a habit of shooting up Wade all the time, he might not be wrong. It was still fun though!
"No, I didn't kill him. I used my sonic frequency to shatter all his trophies the school displayed in the trophy case. I may not have seen it, but I know he cried afterwards. Murder isn't the only solution you know. Some days you just have to find what stupid, materialist things people associate with their self-worth and-" You focused a low-frequency sound wave on the car and the window glass shattered in your demonstration, "Apply enough pressure!"
"My CAR!" Dopinder whined from behind you as he raced over to the taxi with his tray of coffees.
"Whoops!" You whispered before pointing nonchalantly to Cable, "He forgot to set his gun to stun. He sneezed and it just went off. Be glad he hadn't had the dial turned up to 11!" You blatantly threw Cable under the bus. He didn't say anything, but you could feel his cool eyes staring at you in less than amused mood. You giggled playfully.
"Yeah, well I hope you can pay for this Mr Cable, because I already have that dent to get out from Mr Pool's joyride when he was drunk that one time and decided to go all GTA on everyone," Dopinder said in his accented tone.
"Put it on my tab," Cable growled, causing Dopinder to gulp, a bead of sweat gathering above his temple.
"On second thought, I'll just put it on Mr Pool's tab. Since he'll… you know, need to use my cab again."
"Did you say something, Mr Roboto?" You heard Deadpool coo over the earpiece at Cable.
"Your coffee is here," Cable said. Through the earpiece, you heard Wade make an excited squealing noise and what sounded like Domino sighing heavily.
Some seconds later, Deadpool and Domino came repelling down a pipe from the roof and rushed over to get their coffees from Dopinder. Domino chose to wear her hair in stylish Bantu Knots, she had said it was a bad hair day, but she looked as flawless as ever. You were afraid you might be in love with her, or maybe it was her hair or the fact she had heterochromia, or at the very least you were maybe little too obsessed with her outfit! Who cared, Domino was plain freaking awesome!
"Give me that sugary goodness," Deadpool said as he kissed Dopinder through his mask and reached for his coffee. He took his mask off halfway, exposing his mouth, and sucked down dramatically on the frothiest, most hideous excuse for a coffee you had ever seen.
Domino grabbed her macchiato and Cable his latte, you were surprised someone all dark and brooding and serious like him would drink anything with milk in it. You grabbed your cappuccino and thanked Dopinder who was drinking a milkshake.
"What the FUCK is this?" Deadpool asked after he finally finished taking his first sip, more like chug. "This isn't the Caramel Macchiato, Venti, Skim, Extra Shot, Extra-Hot, Extra-Whip, Sugar-Free coffee I ordered!" He bellowed loudly.
"Are you sure that thing is even classified as coffee anymore?" Domino quipped after taking a sip of her macchiato.
"Are you sure that thing is even classified as coffee anymore?" Wade mimicked like a four-year-old brat.
"Whatever," Domino said raising her hands in the air and rolling her eyes.
"The real question is: Where is this easy target and big payday you promised me?" You inched closer to Wade with a look that could kill. You blew air in his ear and amplified the inaudible frequency so that it damn near scrambled his brain. He squalled like a crying child with colic and dropped his Starbucks cup, foam and syrup and what little actual coffee there was in it splattered on the hood of the car coating everyone in the sickly sweet liquid except for Domino, by some unfair miracle.
"That's just fucking great!" Cable said in annoyance as he used his free hand to wipe away the frothy foam that covered his chest. You did the same and licked some of the foam off your finger, all the guys ogled you like you were some damn peacock.
"Men!" Domino said in disgust. You giggled as the gleeful feeling of dominating power coursed through you.
"To answer your question, Carrie White," Wade was referring to you.
"Carrie had telekinetic powers, Mr Pool, wouldn't it make more sense to call her Abra Stone, I'm pretty sure if she tried DJ could generate an earthquake too?" Dopinder asked innocently.
"No, Dopinder, what would make more sense would be to call her Black Canary, but given as how that is a completely different comic book universe and the fact that whoever thought up DJ's powers was an unimaginative lout who couldn't think up something cooler than sound manipulation and also thought DJ was an intuitive play on words and abilities, no, I do not think it would be better to call her Abra Stone. Shockwave maybe... but that’s trdemarked by Hasbro, so," everyone looked at Deadpool in confusion. "Anyway! I'm pretty sure she'll show up any minu-" Deadpool was interrupted by the sound of his phone receiving a message.
"Whoops, Ha-ha, forgot to put that on vibrate," Wade wiggled his eyebrows which strained against the tight fabric of his mask, "Ah, it's Weasel, apparently Madam Mayflower… Pffft- Mayflower! Anyway, apparently, she's not coming. She's going somewhere else today. Oooh! It's a Burlesque Club!"
"Well, what's the fucking plan?" Cable asked showing signs of impatience for the first time.
Wade looked over at you, Cable and Domino, his eyebrows clearly raised in mischief behind his mask.
“Now Madonna, Cher and… The Jackson Five,” he pointed to each of you, assigning you with the corresponding singer’s name.
Domino rolled her eyes at being designated as the entire music group of the Jackson Five (it was no doubt a play on the fact she usually wore her hair in an afro).
Wade made sure he used his most diva emulating performance to sell his pitch, “Put on your favourite dancing shoes and wear your skimpiest outfit. Because ladies, we’re going to put on the best burlesque show of our lives!”
“Jesus,” Cable grumbled. You noticed he did that a lot. You wondered if it would ever stop being comical and turn annoying.
Domino raised her hand.
“Yes, Jackson Five?”
“Which 80′s singer are you in this scenario?”
“Why, the legendary Dolly Parton, of course!” Deadpool said gleefully
"What about me Mr Pool?" Dopinder asked feeling a little left out.
"You are Driving Miss Daisy, now common let's go," Wade walked in imaginary heels and sauntered like a runway model to the front seat in the cab.
"That's not even a singer," Dopinder said with a frown.
"Hey, at least you aren't given the title of an entire music group just because of your hair!" Domino said in deadpan.
"Nah, he just got stereotyped as a slow cab driver!" You chimed in before taking your seat in the middle of the cab.
