"Aemond is the next in line. It must be him."
I knew it! I FUCKING I KNEW IT! I knew Cole would put blinders over his eyes and go full steam ahead with putting Aemond in a position of power. Despite knowing DAMN WELL what Aemond did, Criston supported him and didn't bother speaking in favor of his "beloved Saint Alicent" when she put herself forward to be the King's Regent.
And now, she dares to stare at him with those teary eyes... Like, girl! It was never about you! He only latched onto you because you shielded him from his crimes, indulged in his hatred of Rhaenyra, allowed him to get away with everything under the sun, and provided him a spot in your bed...IN RHAENYRA'S OLD ROOM. Criston Cole was never going to use his status as Hand to make you Regent. You wasted everybody's time fighting for a bunch of men who don't give a hoot about you except for what you can give them.

I know this is beating a dead horse at this point, but I just started thinking about this the other day and...
How many people that were previously enemies has Sonic ACTUALLY befriended?
Like my knowledge of some old games and the handhelds ain't great, but...
There was Knuckles, who I think is the only one in the classic era.
He never really befriended Gamma in SA1, just left him to Amy.
Also he didn't befriend Chaos, just beat the anger out of him.
The next one was Shadow in SA2, although they're still kinda rivals?
I don't think Rouge counts in SA2 since she wasn't really an enemy of Sonic specifically, even in Heroes it's really Sonic and Shadow that start the fight.
Gemerl is a robot who was reprogrammed to be friendly, I wouldn't count that as "befriending someone".
Him and Jet are rivals in every Riders game, this never changes.
Blaze in Rush is someone that fought him and they became friends, so it's clear cut, she counts.
Silver in '06 does as well.
Do we count Shade from Chronicles? I think she had a boss fight. I know very little about that game but it's not canon, right?
Merlina is kinda a grey area? Like they were friends, he stopped her evil plans and was still nice to her. I don't know if in context that meets the criteria.
On top of that I don't think the Knights of the Round Table count. Sonic is there to take the swords and they work together at the end. I don't think there's any hard feelings, but don't know if this counts as "friends".
Sage could be the next example, but she's still loyal to Eggman. I don't think what they briefly shared was friendship as much as Sage wanting to save Eggman.
I haven't played Superstars but Trip doesn't even have a bossfight, does she? I don't think she counts.
Not looking at the method, just purely if they became friends down the line. Out of all of those, there's 4 total (if you count Shadow, which I do) with 1 it's complicated and 1 non-canon. That's very few when you consider how large the game cast is.
An overwhelming majority of his friends weren't ever hostile with him to begin with, like the Chaotix, Amy, Tails, Cream, Emerl, Big, ect. There's plenty of other cast members that are still have him on their shit list, like Eggman, Infinite (if he's alive), Fang, Metal, Eggman Nega, the Deadly Six...
Now I'm starting to wonder where this idea of it being a frequent even came from.

Crosshair + his crush on Aragorn Pt. 2
A bunch of doodles that are a continuation of this comic about Crosshair finding out about LOTR for the first time with Tech, Echo, and Omega.
Because I love projecting on my favorites and because I think that Crosshair would fall utterly in love with Aragorn because 1) he's got that rugged look about him but 2) he's loyal as FUCK.
Crosshair might have bad taste in men but Aragorn is the one guy who's like decent (I say this but Aragorn is literally picture-perfect man) and he's utterly obsessed.
Tech regrets ever showing Crosshair LOTR.
Anywho!
Part Three
Close-up and text under the cut!
Actual photo of what I spend my time doing most of the day-
"Tch. Aragorn would never."
ft. Modern AU Tay (who told Crosshair he couldn't have a milkshake and is now being ignored by his boyfriend)
"Oh, Aragorn we're really in it now."
*The Helm's Deep suiting up scene*
"Wow...who knew putting on clothes could be so hot?" <- an actual thing I said while watching said scene and all my siblings gasped and stared at me like I had two heads
Tattoos! He got the shards of Narsil on his thigh and the Evenstar on his lower back. Only Tay knows they're there (of course) because Crosshair is not letting his brothers know that he got LOTR tattoos or else they will tease him relentlessly for them

roger who's nickname for buggy was "junebug" cause they found him in june and his hair is the same color.... buggy who hates it at first until he's climbing into his captain's bed at night bc of a nightmare and his captain says ever so softly, "oh junebug, c'mere"..... the nickname getting adopted by everyone on the crew until nobody calls him buggy anymore..... them meeting up with thr whitebeard pirates and getting irrationally jealous when the whitebeards use the nickname bc that's their nickname and who the fuck do these people think they are getting so close to their junebug.... rouge who has never met buggy calling him junebug in her head.... roger whose last words to buggy that fateful day before loguetown was "you shine like the sun, junebug. never stop"..... buggy who waits for years after the execution for a call from one of his former crew members, hoping every time the den-den one day it'll be rayleigh or seagull or gaban or sunbell on the other side with a familiar "hey junebug", except no one ever calls and the years go by and buggy slowly learns to stop waits, and gives on being the roger's junebug and learns how to be buggy the clown, buggy the genius jester, buggy the immortal, everything and anything other than junebug

I've been thinking of that one post about how Astarion approves of you letting him bite during sex because he gets a snack and I'm like "Well.... Where's the fairness?" And since I'm still craving a philly cheese steak I had to draw Tav/Durge getting a snack too!
*Warning a Little Risqué under the cut. Minors get lost.*
See the moral here is sex and food together equals a great time.
Don't be mad at her it was either this or her being super hungry afterwards!

zhao and ik finally come back and lucifer js loses all sense of formality and literally runs and hugs them SO tightly. they r all sleeping in one bed tonight u can’t stop him. they will have scheduled family activities sometime 😤 lucifer is basically like a dejected bird on the floor when they’re gone u have to understand. he’s a dad to a little child. ik will always be his little child. he’s insane.
(nightbringer lucifer saw the ring of light and he takes like an entire hour just to work again bc HE GOT MARRIED???? but damn nb luci is gonna be real sad when ik and zhao leave)
he would deflate into an exhausted sort of puddle for at least one week, if not longer, and the image it has conjured up is so vivid that i need to draw him being pathetic and sad now hang on
satan can't even make fun of him for it because he just feels bad for his incredibly stressed big brother. meanwhile lucifer calls in every single sick day he's ignored over the years in a row and WILL be in the same room as his husband and/or child at any given moment
i feel like zhao would've tried to hide the whole thing with the ring of light, but lucifer KNOWS that that's the wedding ring finger, and he most certainly knows the ring of light when he sees it. it'd be funny if he assumes at first that it's michael who apparently proposed to a human, since as far as he knows that's where the ring was
also ouuu... exchanging one sad miserable lucifer for another one. there's no coming out of this nightbringer situation with all parties happy... awfully cruel for nb lucifer to put zhao and ik in his life, knowing he'd never want to let go, but forcing him to do so anyway
