Have you ever unfollowed someone over a fandom opinion?

No. I would only unfollow someone if they're being extremely unreasonable, and their asshole behaviour is escalating.

Has fandom ever ruined a pairing for you?

*looks over at Sonamy*

I was always indifferent to it, but the sheer spectacle made over it has made me beyond sick of it. In fanworks, Sonic is often made OoC for the sake of the ship, or his side of the matter in general is an afterthought at best, because it's said that Amy deserves his love because "she's earned it". They'll waste valuable question time on the Twitter Takeovers over Sonamy stuff. If Sonic and Amy are onscreen together for even a moment, no matter what it is they're actually doing, everyone will hail it as proof of Sonamy. And of course, they'll go crazy when they actually do tease it, using it to shut everyone else up because "Sonamy is Canon, deal with it", even if that teasing is incredibly minor and fated to never go anywhere.

It's a weird feeling looking at all the Sonamy VS Sonally wars over the decades, and not giving a solitary fuck about either of them. And yes, this was already the case long before a certain cardinal sin was initiated on my end. *coughs over horse noises in the background*

Has fandom ever made you enjoy a pairing you previously hated?

Can't think of any.

Unpopular opinion about XXX character?

Sonic: I'm sick of people going one extreme or the other with him. He's not Mr. Principles, nor is he completely selfish to the point of only helping others for his own enjoyment. And I especially dislike when fans misinterpret his role in Black Knight and use it to claim that he's a full on anti-hero. No, he's a legit hero and good person who just so happens to enjoy what he does rather than adopting the usual superhero mantra, and has to make the occasional tough decision for the good of the long run for everyone. What's hard to get about that?

Tails: "I'm wildly inconsistent" does not count as fixing him. Neither does repeating the exact thing that Forces!Tails got slack for to an even more inexcusable extent.

Knuckles: The idea that he tries to see the good in people despite his standoffish nature is fascinating to me, and it's a shame that it's only been brought up for the sake of making him look stupid when he falls for another one of Eggman's tricks. It'd be nice if this got delved into more, in a way where it doesn't screw him over for once… Just don't turn him into Principles the Echidna.

Amy: Like @colony-drop-program, I recognize the… importance(?) of Amy's crush on Sonic, but I find all her other traits infinitely more intriguing.

I also wish people would remember Tails was the one who actually blasted his way through Prison Island. It's become common for fans to give Amy all the credit for that one.

Bean and Bark: Not that I'm super invested in them or anything, but I suppose it'd be nice if they got more opportunities to be the good guys they were intended to be rather than always being pigeonholed with Fang as the Hooligans thanks to Archie. Fang strikes me as a loner type anyway.

Shadow: I don't think I'll ever be on-board with him officially joining G.U.N. I'm fine with him forgiving them, and maybe having a connection of some sort with them afterward, but being a full-on agent himself? I dunno man. After his long life as Gerald and Black Doom's tool, I'd rather he carve out a future where he can be truly free, without needing to answer to any superior.

Rouge: She's not a villain. She's not a villain. She's not a villain. She's. Not. A. Villain.

The entire point of her role in SA2 is that, oh shit, she was only pretending to be on the bad guys' side, and ever since SA2, she's been a loyal ally to Shadow and helped out the other heroes with little hesitance on multiple occasions. She may be a jewel thief, she may have her rivalry with Knuckles, but she's proven time and time again that she's a far better person than most people and comic writers give her credit for.

Cream: I've seen some Amy fans hate on her for supposedly stealing some of Amy's traits, but that's a disservice to her. You can have more than one character in a franchise with similar traits, since they can be explored from different angles. Compare this to a character like Eggman Nega, who really is nothing more than a leech who requires the real Eggman to be split in half in order to seem more impressive.

Silver: Of the many reasons why I'm not interested in him, one is that his schtick gets old very quickly. There's always something to turn his future into yet another Bad Future, and after a while it becomes comical how often his efforts to avert one catastrophe and make a Good Future get revoked by the following catastrophe. Combine that with how he has actual friends in the present, and he might as well just stay in the present full-time and kill two birds with one stone… but then fans would complain about him losing something special to him. Cue frustration.

Also, fans can insist all they want that Silver trusting Mephiles was due to sheer desperation, but until they release the Snyder Cut of '06 where this is actually shown, it's nothing more than a headcanon. You can explain writing fumbles with headcanons, but you can't defend them with headcanons.

Elise: She's not a bad character. Underdeveloped, yes, but the hate she receives is largely exaggerated.

Marine: Her accent annoys me far less than Bunnie's. *mic drop*

Eggman: This notion that he needs to be softened up in order to be fleshed out is ironically a shallow one. He was fine the way he was. There's more than one way to expand on a villain.

Also, he shouldn't be underestimated just because he's a human instead of a god, a demon, an alien, etc. Bowser is an overgrown turtle who can breathe fire when all is said and done, and he still came close to conquering the universe on two occasions. If Bowser can do great things, so can Eggman.

Metal Sonic: It's possible to explore his identity crisis without making him turn traitor. If anything, him staying devoted to the guy who is the real Sonic's arch-nemesis adds an extra compelling layer to his insanity.

Lyric: I actually like his design? Yeah, he's still a crap villain and another one to throw onto the Fucks Eggman Over pile, but his design is at least more interesting than Mephiles the Druggie and Dark "Waiter, There's An Eyeball In My Taco" Gaia.

Infinite: Even if he was meant to be played completely seriously, and the idea of him being parodic to at least some degree isn't actually true, he's still a better maybe-parody of tryhard villains than either Scourge or Surge.

Sage: While Eggman using her for his own ends is preferable to him genuinely caring for her, the mere idea and circumstances of her character is something I'm very opposed to. I just don't like anything that could even vaguely be fitted into the role of Eggman's Bowser Jr, because no matter how it's presented in canon, fans will reduce Eggman to little more than Sage's father regardless. And I'm forced to see a shitton of "wholesome" family bonding regardless.

It doesn't help that beyond her relationship with Eggman, she doesn't have a whole lot of character anyway. The Heavies had more character in Mania, and they had no dialogue whatsoever. Black Doom arguably had more character, because at least with him, I can remember that he doesn't know what lightning is.

The Egg Bosses: They don't work. There is no reason why Eggman would forgo his robots in favor of anthros who, despite his ways of keeping them under his control, still talk back at him, something that the doctor has consistently been known to hate. Eggman having one organic right-hand as the Lefou to his Gaston is fine (like Starline or Agent Stone), but anything more than that just feels wrong IMO.

Tangle: Out of all the IDW-exclusive characters bar pre-Flynned Starline, Tangle is the one I'd be willing to give a chance if she were in something where her characterization wasn't exaggerated to the point of having room temperature IQ. I like the basic concept going on with Tangle, with her being well-intentioned but just a tad overeager for her own good, so I feel kinda sorry for how hard she got flanderized. Compare that to many other characters exclusive to this comic, who I instead wish would just fuck off and never return.

Starline: YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE. IT WAS SAID YOU'D SIMP FOR THE DOCTOR, NOT USURP HIM. CAST ASIDE THIS TIRED CLICHE, NOT FOLLOW IT TO THE LETTER. *cries like Ewan McGregor*

Surge: If a character has been shoved in my face relentlessly as the central focus of a character study for over a year, yet I feel as though I know nothing about who they really are by the time it's concluded, I'm gonna say that character might not be very good.

Mario: I cheered when he appeared at the end of the second movie, but why Chris Pratt?

Chain of Acheron Ep 9 Megapost.

In an effort to minimise a flood of liveblogging for my followers, my usual posting scheme has been converted into this singular post for this episode. Feel free to tell me if it’s better or worse. “I prefer the term Makeshift Boy,” is so endearing and I want the Spring to show up some other time. I love them so much and the idea of a clockmaker designing hitmen and ending up with a gang of clockwork hooligan kids is honestly precious.

Captain Cinzia looking out for the Chain has major Bryce vibes from Critical Role and she’s neat. I feel like it’s a constant in D&D that when your party is a rowdy pack of mercenaries, the DM creates a heart-of-gold lawman.

Tom lives out the goblin fantasy of collecting shinies simply to have them and he is valid for doing so.

King: “Angel. Get Ox and Roach and meet us at the apple cart for a job.” Copper: “Tell him to get a caramel sausage while you’re at it.” King, clearly not a fan of goblin street food: “...We’re meeting him there. You can tell him.”

Boots telling the officers that they will not be allowed to enter the hotel without dressing up and Copper’s utter shock at the implication he doesn’t already look pristine like “...But do you see this hat?!” is amazing.

Okay, I know it made perfect sense in context, but Judge’s comment to the hypothetical tailor “I’m staying at the Dream tonight... Just wreck me,” is the kind of text you want to get.

There’s no real debate about King being an exiled nobleman right? Also I really like the idea that King and Judge bond over keeping things neat and tidy. Slim and Copper already feel like the pair who will end up on their own adventures simply by their interactions. “Officers! What can I do for you?” “I desire a garment.” “One clothes please.” Slim: “You don’t like money?!” Tailor: “Sorry sir, but this is quite a challenge.” Slim: “You don’t like challenges? What sort of a man are you?” Slim is the illusive Wholesome Dudebro. On one hand I feel sorry for this tailor who had a fuck-tonne of work dropped on him on a lazy afternoon, but on the other hand he’s kind of a bigoted racist and I don’t really care about his feelings. Everyone in chat is saying dress uniforms and I am so on board with the idea of the senior officers wearing red,black and silver naval officer jackets I really like “No expense has been spared to show you that no expense has been spared,” for some reason. Concierge: “Will your son be staying with you?” Copper: “Yeah, I share a room with this guy...My dad....Daddy.” The Broadsheet article on The Chain just kept getting better. Everything about it was golden. I love how Tom is usually so quiet and everything he says is perfect. When the Riojan woman considers buying a caramel sausage, Tom, as Copper, in the background going “Nice. Do it. Give it a shot,” makes the scene 1000x more enjoyable. The revenant giving them the quest to go below is not only a really cool character already but he’s a pretty awesome sign of how Matt has adapted his plans to accommodate the Chain’s new status. Maybe he isn’t, but the idea that someone gave them an interdimensional quest because they own a planeriding ship is really cool in my opinion. King: “What do you know about the Fulcrum?” Revenant: “Run by a woman, I think that says it all.”

Phil, OOC: “Ooooooh boy...” FINAL THOUGHTS: What a fun episode! I’m a big fan of this part of D&D, where you’re getting to know your surroundings and figuring out what to do next. The interactions were on point, the NPCs were fun, and Capital is feeling even more cozy than it did before. Can’t wait for the next one.

♛ ATTENTION THOSE IN THE CAPITAL

AN END TO THE HARVEST BALL

⊱⊱⊱ just before the sun began to crest on the horizon, all those still in attendance were summoned to the balconies. as quiet conversation spread among the crowds - anticipation heightening - a boom ricocheted through the city. seconds before panic could ensue, color blossomed across the skies in a magnificent display. having carted in a selection of fireworks last minute, a grand display was awarded to the entire city.

⊱⊱⊱ once the display had been drawn to a close, most began the slow shuffle back to their respective places of boarding - the exhaustion of the festivities finally catching up to them - but some, heavily drunk and unwilling to end the party, rowdily pushed their way through the crowd. on their hasty trek across the room, a goblet of wine was spilled upon @eleanor-tully / ELEANOR TULLY’S dress. having witnessed the event, @jvcrys / JAERYS TARGARYEN, the former prince of the seven kingdoms began to make his way toward the woman in hopes of correcting the wrong, only to be shoved roughly into a wall as a hooligan rushed after a group of friends. intrigued and distracted by the display, @andararryn / ANDAR ARRYN was unaware of the few coins lifted from his pockets until it was a few moments to late. guards were sent out in attempt to catch all three perpetrators - a task that eventually proved fruitless.

⊱⊱⊱ OOC NOTE: and with that, our harvest ball draws to a close. I ask that all threads pertaining to the event be drawn to a close no later than friday, january 18. again, I want to apologize to everyone that this isn’t the grande finale I had hoped, but I assure you there will be plenty of drama brewing in the future.

Tag Masterlist/Pinned post for Rules & About

Rules!

1. No god-modding, forcing ships, etc. Basic Roleplay Etiquette, you know the deal by now. 2. PLEASE try and message me about possible interactions if you'd like to plan a long thread. It helps me focus on what to write and that way I don't work myself in circles trying to figure out where to go from there. 3. If I do something you don't like! Tell me!! I don't want to find out via some weird drama that something I did bothered you and since I was not told I never knew to change the behavior! Keep in mind I may do this in turn as well. 4. PLEASE!! Be aware that Radeon is a Multiship character. If you want to keep things in a separate verse please tell me and I can make a verse Specifically for that ship, but Rads is typically one verse and is very much Poly. 5. While the art for Radz is focused in the Sonic community, The blog itself is considered Fandomless and Is completely fine with multi-fandom interaction! I will most likely craft a separate verse for the fandom in mind if you want to roleplay.

About!!

Radeon Evers is a Hybrid Mobian (Wolf/Hedgehog) who had been genetically altered to use and produce a Corrupted Chaos Energy known as the Corrosion. He uses a Rusted Warp Ring to travel Zones and makes money by scrapping materials and building trinkets/robots. He and his Brother Lazarus come from a ruined Zone, and typically hop from place to place as drifters.

History of these two goobers is Here Mun is 20+ Y/o, is semi-literate (Sleep deprivation and a touch of the tism makes spelling errors common) and usually tries to match Response length.

Ref for Radeon under the break!
