#Typical Eggman Style lol

[true-blue-sonic]

Here me out, Espilver W e d d I n g

I have a draft about it! You can imagine Everything Goes Terribly Wrong, haha:

Es and Silv wanted a small wedding with like Vector, Charmy, and maybe Sonic and Blaze there... and thus legit the entire friend group got invited instead. As my draft notes say: "And with that I mean they slapped a bowtie on Omega and made him come too."

Amy got asked to be the wedding planner to accommodate for that change and she promptly goes ballistic making it the Best Possible Wedding Ever. Espio is having regrets asking her.

Charmy was made the ring bearer, so naturally he loses the rings in the stupidest way possible. Que Vector hosting a mass investigation to get them back, driving all the guests insane and also not really getting anywhere.

Silver meanwhile is VERY excited leading up to the wedding but on the day itself he's just like "whoa this is kinda big actually it's so official all of a sudden" and Sonic all but kidnaps him (again) to give him a pep talk and tell him there's very little that'll actually change in their lives. Which means that one of the to-be-wed, kind of a necessity for a wedding, is gone and missing.

Espio now has to deal with having WAY too many people around, Amy's micromanaging, lost rings, an accidentally-runaway groom, and his own nerves, and thus is getting equally overwhelmed by it all.

Eventually all turns out alright, the rings are found (Charmy probably just held the pillow upside down or something), our grooms can say their vows and kiss, and then they are married!!💕 And promptly they take a GOOD two hours or so just for themselves to recover from all this XD But despite all the chaos, it is absolutely one of the best days of their lives, and they're happy they did it in such a way. And the reception and party afterwards and stuff goes a lot more smoothly now that everything has gone wrong before the actual wedding itself, haha!

WHAT DID I FUCKING SAY Y'ALL????

Eggman isn't the overly physically affectionate gushing and throwing arms around people type, it doesn't suit his demeanor and behavior and I'm glad to see that hasn't been suddenly forced with Sage. And that's even aside the way she's still actually not a physical being in the way she's a digital program so he'd surely just phase through her anyway since I'm pretty sure there isn't a solid physical sense of touch actually going on here between them, but again that's besides the point anyway-

This isn't over the top and uncomfortable OOC like in fanon. I like how it's a subtle and small gesture, with him extending his arm with hand out to her but looking away and forward. He's quiet, solemn, and reserved. His demeanor and body language is very important. He takes a breath that seems like a "sigh well, here goes" kind of way then mumbles it, not much, just small words of praise towards her doing the very things he created and praised her for before- doing what he wants her to and serving her purpose as his protector like she protected him in the fight, and calling her his daughter also has the same effect in encouraging her and he knows it, as well as how it's appealing to him for his pride as he said in the memo.

Also wow his bear paws are so fucking big do you see what I'm saying god damn lol I wanna hold them so bad too ahhgufdbkgshj 🥰 Speaking of, this is literally exactly how I imagine such gestures with him in my self sh!pp!ng too and I think anything different would be OOC, this is the way that works in any form I think

It's very important to acknowledge that he's not shy at all, that's the last word to describe him. He has the highest self esteem, self love, and confidence and it's all genuine. It's just that hyper affectionate super warm and mushy gushy-ness, be it through feelings, words, or actions isn't his thing. The most he's ever going to hype someone up close to it is in a performative manipulative way to urge them to continue doing what pleases him, and he forces it in some cases more than others, you get varying degrees.

But I like how it's on the more subtle side here a lot because it's even more telling of his true character. When he's acting like this it aligns with that reasoning again but with a new look at his style of showing it in a physical subtle manner, with his behavior being similar to the scene where she saved him in Cyber Space and said he was proud of her for it- only it was only through words then. We've now seen how he can show this verbally and physically and I like it a lot, it's the only way this can work and they did it. This is the best outcome.

Let me elaborate further; I truly believe that he doesn't know how to feel the typical conventional idea of "love" for anyone but himself because he is the biggest egotist and narcissist in all of existence and is extremely selfish and y'all seem to be forgetting what that entails for his behavior and personality feelings, and mindset with his self absorption and low empathy. There are no sudden exceptions to this, Sage is literally just another perfect example of it, nothing has changed with him.

The only way he can value anyone that isn't himself is in what they can do for him, what's in it for him is always his mindset, so it's the same thing of self praising, self serving, and self-centered, just being served through another person appealing to that through serving him, agreeing with his outlook, and having a willingness to serve and good use to him. And guess what? That's still the exact reasoning behind it with Sage. This is known and true in the prequel comic, memos, and Flynn's words and hasn't changed.

And why wouldn't he be pleased with her for this and praise her for it when it goes along the exact lines of that?

It's in character because Sage is the one giving some thing to him, protecting him, serving him, and showing loyalty, support, and respect for his desires. She does exactly what he wants as she's created for and is genuinely willing and enthusiastic about it unlike a lot of other creations of his. Eggman still hasn't done shit for Sage except praise her when she does what he wants but then becomes grumpy and snaps at her every time she does something he doesn't.

In fact he does it again in this scene too where he's seemingly really jealous and pissed when he notices her looking at Super Sonic with admiration lol

It's selfish on Eggman's side and selfless on Sage's side, so it works.

That's why I still wouldn't put the word "love" to Eggman's side of the dynamic because I feel it has connotations that don't accurately define his feelings. Though you could at least say he "loves" and "cares" for her "in his… own way" as Sonic put it, because there's actually selfish and unsettling reasons behind it as Flynn himself put it too. But it's not hyper affectionate, unconditional, or genuinely selfless like people are acting like it is. And it's so much more interesting that way and fun to analyze.

Eggman commending Sage for her work and for serving her purpose makes sense and is in character. It's nothing different to the reasons I said the standard base game ending was. The only difference is a hand hold presented in the best way. He finally has a creation genuinely enthusiastic and willing to serve him and being her creator and father gives him a lot of pride for being the one to create her and make her that way and his success and pride in doing so with the ways she benefits him and values his selfish desires are what his value is factually rooted in in the game.

So overall yeah, I really like how Eggman and Sage and their dynamic were handled in this update. They'll probably be a lot more in depth thoughts to come because I'm short on time right now, this is a mini essay in itself but l have tons more like always lol. But for now, since nobody seems to understand my take on their dynamic despite me just relaying what the game itself showed and repeating what Ian Flynn says, let me just remind you of my actual summarized take on how I see it is and how I cleared up misconceptions people have about my take on it here.

And everything we saw in this update aligns with and doesn't contradict any of what I've perceived and analyzed and discussed throughout my Sonic Frontiers tag on my blog! Very pleased. 👏

For a positive SA2 query, how about your favourite level for each character? :)

Sonic - Crazy Gadget. City Escape is iconic and all, but Crazy Gadget is one of my all-time favorite Sonic levels because it shows an incredibly vibrant and dynamic side of the ARK, one which elevates it from "cool space station" to the "feels Sonic enough to me to count as a proper Sonic stage" category. This is a side of the colony rarely, if ever, glimpsed in subsequent games. (As much as I love ShTH, The Doom and Lost Impact feel too clinical and gray at times.)

The environment is alive with constant motion; you see cargo get shipped and loaded outside the observation glass; the gravity changes with a flip of the switch; you can slide down upside-down rails and take a ride through pneumatic delivery tubes. Propelled by high-speed platforming, it's just a blast all the way through.

I'm amazed that sections of the floor light up under your feet. That couldn't have been easy to implement on the Dreamcast. (Don't forget the Xbox references on the walls!)

From a narrative standpoint, Crazy Gadget is one of those Sonic levels where the story lights a fire under your feet. Because there are high stakes attached to your typical goal of "gotta go fast," you feel it more keenly, I think.

Deem's voice acting really sells the intensity of the situation. Even knowing he's programmed to bark at the player every two minutes, it seldom fails to have an effect on me when he chides Sonic for being "too slow" and warns him that if he doesn't "come here, she will die!" I love it.

---

Tails - Prison Lane. I love the environmental details they included in order to make it feel like you're traversing a treacherous maximum-security prison while making it seem neglected at the same time, crowned with rust and plunged in dreary gloom. The prison is simultaneously crammed with robots and strangely lifeless, what with a lack of facilities and cafeterias. You're always being watched by the cameras Portal 1-style.

The gears churning as the elevator carries you up; the steam spouting from the pipes; incandescent tube lights bolted to the walls flickering erratically, despite that never really being anything the average player would be given reason to notice... All of it paints a pretty sordid picture of the prison, and you can suddenly see why Tails worries about Sonic being stuck here.

Plus it's just plain fun to shoot everything in sight and this is the quickest level in which to mow them down lol

--- Knuckles - Tie between Wild Canyon and Aquatic Mine. The former because it's easy to navigate while providing interesting sights and the latter for letting us relax a little with a mysterious, lowkey vibe nice for spelunking. I also like how few enemies are in both; it really makes you feel like you're on your own.

--- Rouge - Dry Lagoon. While normally I'm not wild on SA2's desert stages, this one's really pretty with its butterflies and oasis theme, and fits well with Rouge's general character. It's lowkey enough to be pretty stress-free, which is fitting for a first level. It's also the only level that really takes advantage of Rouge's ability to swim; it's a shame she doesn't get to swim more in later levels. Can't forget our helpful friend, Mr. Turtle ;A; In addition, Dry Lagoon boasts a unique glitch wherein Rouge can climb walls and dig underwater. If you stop at certain points, she might be able to stay there indefinitely.

--- Shadow - White Jungle. Despite being the Dark counterpart of the frantic Green Forest, the atmosphere is different enough to distinguish it as its own thing. Moodier, more somber. Almost ethereal.

The sound of rushing waterfalls and the white sheens of mist blanketing the jungle almost make you feel as though you're experiencing it for the first time alongside Shadow. The landscape is full of hidden dangers and curiosities we don't have time to stop and contemplate. Fog... it doesn't bother him.

--- Eggman - Why must I choose. Cosmic Wall go whee. But Iron Gate also go whee. Fucking shit up is really fun in both these stages and you'd practically have to do nothing in order to win like Luigi get anything less than an A rank in the former. Lost Colony also go whee with a quieter more mysterious tone. hhhhh

Cipher’s creative process

Just like I did on Twitter, I want to show you guys my creative process of creating an oc, in this case, I did it with Cipher in real time <3 The whole process took around 3 or 4 hours working almost nonstop.

The only exception is that now I found the files of the oc that served as Cipher’s inspiration for the palette, so I’ll add them here.

First, the idea

After seeing how a mobian owl would look thanks to the cover of Sonic IDW issue #22, I wanted to make an owl oc (with my own touches of course)

Inspiration

As I noticed I already had previous unused mobian owls (While checking some old notebooks of mine) I wanted to fuse their designs, keeping certain aspects personality-wise and design-wise respectively.

They’re based on an old oc of mine and a rowlet.

Then comes the concept

Since I didn't know where I wanted to go, I began to write things I thought would be neat for them, in this case

-scientist -androgynous -neutral aling -supplies both eggman & resistence -likes to see the world burning

Time to doodle

First I started with the typical owl face but in my own style (giving it a touch of heart-like toony face), I gave them goggles from google since they're a scientist

Since I used steampunk goggles (I'm a sucker for them and), I decided to go with that aesthetic for this oc

As for the clothes, I began to look through the steampunk clothing search, taking what I liked and mixing it with elements I've used previously in my ocs

In this case, baggy shorts, buttons, bowtie, and that nice frilly thing many steampunk clothing have in the neck

After debating with myself and being the weak person I am, I have them shoes inspired in these boots because they look neat

The sleeves are based on eggman's

Now is time to digitalize and adjust stuff

With some minor fixes and a sketchy line the character is ready to be given some colors and tweaks in the design! For this one, I want a steampunk vibe, so black, white, brown, yellow, beige and cream are fundamental

Color time!!

This was my first option color, I went for barn owl bcus it suits well the theme, giving them yellow sclera because some owls have yellow eyes (Plus I didn't want to go with full black sclera and liked the white face)

The colors were also based on the respective inspirations, the old oc and a rowlet

Adjustments

Changed some colors and adjusted some details, plus giving them a clock on the bowtie for customization. I decided to add inventor to their scientist role (because steampunk). Alchemy will be a maybe, y'know, brown/yellow themes lol

Variations

Since this time I actually liked the scheme, I left it like that, but made some color adjustments so it'll look good in my three screens (phone, laptop and graphic tablet) then I made some of my typical variants for the feathers, but at the end discarded them

Almost there!

Made sure to make a version with the eyes closed so it shows how their eyelids are! (They have the same secondary brown of their feathers). Also I wanted to make a variation with a hat but discarded the idea

And done!

With some lil effects and other details I consider important, after that, I had a clear concept for a new oc ready to be named and developed. As you know, at end I named them Cipher and you can read their bio in their Toyhouse!

I wanna say I'm such a huge fan of your stories and prompts! They give me life

I shall endeavor to do my best! :Db

Prompt:

Sonic was simply lounging on a rooftop, yawning.

He lifted a hand up and wiggled a pinkie finger into his ear, scratching within it, before blinking his eyes open and looked up.

“..Huh?” For some reason, it was too long of a nap for him…

He looked to the side.

Usually… Eggman would come along, Amy would find and jump him, or something or someone would come along and whisk him off to an adventure.

If he didn’t fall headfirst into one, that is.

He slowly got up, before jumping rapidly into a ball and letting his ball roll down the roof, hit the gutter, and roll down that until shoving his ball-form deeper into it as the pipe morphed to his shape and spat him out like a spit-wad.

He unrolled and stretched as his feet formed the typical ‘8′ formation, and began smacking his lips to snap out of the sleepy-spell.

A submarine’s googles popped out a nearby lake, watching the blue blur speed past, as the eyes blinked before Vector took his head out of the elongated set of binoculars.

“He’s awake! Dang it! I was sure he’d sleep all day!”

“But he’s Sonic! How else could be get rid of all that energy?” Charmy was behind him, since they were all squished in the submarine. He gestured a hand up as Espio looked claustrophobic.

“Could anyone relate to me the simple idea of why we choose to spy on him through a submarine?” He tried to sound calm, but you could tell he was slightly annoyed.

Vector and Charmy looked to him, as if thinking about that before sweat dropping…

“It was on rental!” Vector hollered in defense.

“A free-trail period!” Charmy happily pointed a finger up, as if giving another good reason.

“How could we resist?” Vector, matter-of-factly, shrugged as much as he could in the small space before piloting the course off into the distance.

Sonic continued to ran before a fruit fell on his face.

“Wah!” he slid a little but still fell flat on his face, slowly putting one hand in front of the other to get his head elevated off the dirt.

He shook his head and picked the fruit up, looking confused, and then around at the trees.

“..Strange. None of these are fruit trees.” he blinked, looking completely oblivious as Charmy hid behind the trunk of a large tree, shaking nervously as his lips formed a swiggly line as he sweat profusely.

It was a scary form of hide-and-distract!

Espio, turning invisible, had some other fruits too.

‘We need to keep him off this trail…’ he strategized in his mind before moving into a bush, causing it to russle.

“Huh?” Sonic narrowed his eyes at the sound, and quickly dashed over to it.

Holding the fruit, he put his hands on his hips and leaned down, trying to examine the strange bush.

It kept shaking…

He raised an eyebrow, seeing it didn’t seem like a threat, and lifted his foot to lightly tap to check for boobytraps.

When nothing happened, he parted the bush and looked around.

Nothing…

He shrugged, before eating the fruit and tossing it behind him.

Within the bush, you could hear a ‘Ow!’ as Sonic pivoted to the noise.

“What the..?”

“OOhh! Help me! Heelllp meee!”

Sonic heard a strange woman’s voice, and quickly took off to where it sounded.

“What’s wrong, miss…?” Sonic looked up at a very ugly,.. “-Alligator?”.

“Crocodile! Ehem.” Vector coughed, making his voice high again, and fanning a fan over himself to hide his poorly done makeup.

“My baby seems stuck in that awful tree!”

He pointed to a spray-painted green Charmy, who had a cardboard costume of a crocodile and shook his fake tail, putting a hand over his fake muzzle and shouting out, “Whhaa! Whhaa!!”

“Huh? How’d he get up there?”

“Crocodiles..uh… climb trees when they’re young… heh…heh.” Vector sweated, causing some makeup to get messy…

Sonic shrugged, and scaled the tree, grabbing Charmy and then rushing down, having Vector take him in one fell swoop.

“Ah! My baby! Don’t you ever stray from me AGAIN!” Vector turned and looked to Sonic, kissing his cheek as a sign of thank you as Sonic shivered from the experience and watched as the … mother walked off.

“Strange day…” he scratched the back of his head, before zipping off. “Strange that I haven’t seen any of my friends yet… where is everyone?”

Vector spat out and started wiping his mouth and pulling out his tongue to scrape it.

“Yuck! I can’t believe you did that! Hahah! You kissed Sonic~ You kissed Sonic!~ Hahah!” Charmy rolled back and forth on his curved spine and mocked Vector, as he glared and started shouting at him.

“I was in character! That’s more than YOU can say! Cry baby!”

The two started mini-fighting.

“Who are you calling a cry baby, big lips!”

“Both of you! Stop it!” Espio appeared and pulled the two apart, closing his eyes to keep relatively a calm demeanor, but was failing at it…

“If we don’t do something now, the whole plan will be ruined!”

“What ruined plan?”

The three jolted in their spots, before slowly looking up to a tree branch, freaking out as they realized Sonic was laying on a branch, one hand up to hold up his head and a leg up for style.

“I figured no woman could be that ugly and forward about it.” Sonic winked to Vector.

Vector was so embarrassed that it came out as rage, jumping up and shaking a fist at Sonic and shouting out random lines of insults and defenses, making Sonic close his eyes and tilt his head, grinning widly in delight at his reaction.

He then looked to Charmy and Espio. “What’s going on? Someone hire you to keep me put?”

“Uh.. T-that’s classified.” Espio quickly put two fingers up like a ninja in front of his face, ducking his head and closing his eyes, as if trying to mask his emotions… but he twitched his eyebrow and still sweat in panic…

“W-we’ll never talk!” Charmy flew up and flailed defiantly, as Sonic smiled as any friend would and shrugged.

“Oh well. But I warn you. I’m not easily distracted~” as if declaring a dare, he smirked and took off.

The three shot up and worriedly, in a frenzy, went after him.

After a billion failed attempts that Sonic enjoyed immensely of keeping him distracted or at least keeping up with him, the three were exhausted by the time Sonic had finally stopped for them.

“Give up yet?” he folded his arms, looming over their exhausted, flattened, and overlapping dog-pile bodies with a look of triumphant on his face.

“Alright. We give.” Vector admitted, as Charmy continued, hanging off Espio’s body, who was laying with his back on top of Vector, on his belly.

“Amy hired us… she’s in the east Green Meadow Zone…” Charmy panted, then whined out as he dipped his head.

“W-…We didn’t necessarily fail..” Espio tried to comfort his team. “After all, he is late now.”

“Ah!” Vector thrust himself up, causing the two to roll off of him. “That’s right! We did succeed! Haha! We did it! He’s late!” Vector outstretched his arms up in belated victory.

“..Huh? Late?” Sonic was now highly interested, “What’s this all about? Spill already!” He looked a little annoyed he was so out of the loop. (pun intended)

“Right this way~” Vector zipped up and marched happily with his hand gesturing to the area.

The two also followed, but drooped their shoulders forward and sighed, wearily. Charmy’s little wings still flapped to keep him hovering up and down in the air, poor thing..~

Finally, as they entered the meadow, a huge table and decorations were set up, but no one was there.

Sonic spread out himself and looked amazed, “What..?”

“SURPRISE!” Many friends popped out and had typical party items before the music was formed through technologically forming from a square box.

It boomed as everyone gathered around Sonic.

“H-hey… Is this a party?”

He nervously looked around, a little startled.

Vector, Espio, and Charmy sneaked away as Amy handed them their due rewards and the three danced and sprayed the money around, before quickly ducking down and gathering it up as soon as possible. Taking wind into consideration…

Amy approached Sonic as the crowd stepped away to let her through, “I threw this party to celebrate the first time I met you, Sonic! I hired Team Chaotix and asked all your friends to come! Because it was by meeting you I was able to meet them! And with one friendship made…” she took his hand and pulled him into the center of the crowd. “Many more are formed!” she threw her arms up, as the crowd cheered for Sonic, and lifted him up in a type of mosh-pit, and threw him up and down.

He felt uncomfortable, before seeing her sweet smile and returning it.

He pumped his fists up, “Then let’s party! Friends and all!”

“Yeeeahhh!!”

They danced around each other before Amy admitted she threw in a slow song, and although it took some friendly shoving…

Sonic danced with Vector. (JK!) He totally had a slow dance with Amy~ To thank her, obviously, haha! Why else would he? right? G-gotta go! (sonic channel tag tease reference, lol!)

(LOL, I can’t get over what Vector did either XD Such a method actor!)

HEAVY METAL + GUNS + SWEARING = SONIC THE HEDGEHOG GAME???!!?! Shadow The Hedgehog (2005)

When you think of Sonic The Hedgehog, what do you think of? Running really fast, getting golden rings, defeating the evil scientist Dr. Eggman from taking over the world with chaos emeralds? Very good thoughts from a Sonic fan or anyone else in general BUTTTTTTT that's not the case in this next upcoming Sonic The Hedgehog game in the franchise.  Released to the United States on November 15, 2005, the most unexpected Sonic The Hedgehog game came into existence known as “Shadow The Hedgehog.” 

As you can see from this game cover, this doesn’t look like a typical cute Sonic The Hedgehog game cover with a happy cartoon art style, instead there is fire in the city with a hedgehog holding a gun!!!  The hedgehog on this cover is not actually Sonic The Hedgehog but one of the villains he faced from his past named Shadow The Hedgehog.  Sega said that they didn’t want to give Sonic The Hedgehog a gun since it might ruin the blue hedgehogs reputation so they decided to give it to the evil hedgehog from Sonic Adventure 2 named Shadow The Hedgehog since he seemed better acquainted with a gun.  This game features using a variety of guns/swords/motorcycles and tanks to use, explosions present a lot throughout levels such as city’s being destroyed, islands on fire, a spaceship blowing up to smithereens, etc, and you can kill people (if you want) throughout almost every level in this game as well as being able to kill Sonic!!! MAN, THIS GAME IS DARK!!!

I own this game and a lot of people hate it since it is so much different compared to previous Sonic games but for me, I personally enjoyed it.  You could still go fast, the levels are very creative and unique in their own way (not colorful and happy like previous sonic game levels), and I personally like Shadow the Hedgehog more than Sonic The Hedgehog.  Although this game is filled with violence and also not to mention that they mildly swear from time to time saying words such as “Idiot,” “Dam,” and “Hell,” you can chose different paths in this game to get different endings such as making decisions throughout the game to be a hero, making decisions to only care about yourself, or making decisions to be purly evil to take over the world with the help from a devil like creature! (No joke lol) SEGA was crazy back in the day!

First form of the devil like creature (named “Black Doom”) that wants Shadow The Hedgehog to work for him to enslave humanity.

 Black Dooms final form facing Super Shadow.  This scene happens if you don’t want to enslave humanity and make Black Doom the ruler of the world.

Its kind of surprising that SEGA made such a violent game out of a series that was aimed at towards kids!! If anyone is curious in seeing what this game looks like, here is a link to my YouTube channel under the pics below!!

Next week on Tumblr.......the next Sonic the Hedgehog games turn ugly in a different sense..... O boy :(

[egg-emperor]

do you consider sage a child mentally or just a fully developed ai with the appearance of a child?

Definitely not a child mentally and that's canon too. I get confused by the popular take of fanon Sage acting like an actual toddler because she wasn't like that at any point in the game. I see her being infantilized a lot with people saying she's just a poor little baby that needs protecting despite her being very smart and mature and literally being created to be Eggman's protector instead lol

Because Eggman obviously didn't create or code Sage to be a child because he wasn't looking to create a daughter, she was an AI program built to protect him, an "it". He didn't see her as such for a while after creating her. It would just be weird and random if Eggman decided to make his AI a child when she wasn't even going to be like a daughter to him in her creation, it doesn't make sense.

Plus I'm in the belief that Eggman didn't design her appearance at all and that was a way Sage just took form by her own choice or something like I talked about here. Because in the prequel comic, intro, and post credits, she's just a disembodied voice like an AI program would be. Plus she doesn't look like his typical style of design for his creations.

And with this Sonic Channel art caption of him not liking how Sage looked without shoes so he gave her some in it, that also gives the impression that he didn't design her because he could've just created her to have those in the first place and made her to his preference otherwise. So yeah there's quite a lot of basis for him not having a hand in it.

Because making Sage his child wasn't the intention behind her, the most childish she could be is if he unintentionally coded his childishness into her as the manchild he is. XD But it seems she only reflects his genius and intelligence in the way he really wants for with her smartness, loyalty, and efficiency and was actually more mature than him in some moments.

He wouldn't purposely program her with "negative" traits and if she did show childishness instead of smartness, loyalty, and efficiency then she would lose her appeal to him, as that's specifically what made him like her so much. She's supposed to be reflecting how much of a genius he is and her acting like a child would only do the opposite and he'd be unhappy with that.

Her being superior to organic kids conceived through traditional procreation and birth by being made with code and electrons instead like a true genius would as Eggman put it in the memos, and also smarter than the average child with her intelligence, are things for Eggman to brag about for how it reflects his own genius as her creator, just like he bragged in the memo.

So it just wouldn't make sense for Eggman not only to design her to be a child, which I don't believe he did as there's stuff than can be used to support that theory, it also especially wouldn't make sense for her to be coded to be a child mentally either and if she did turn out that way somehow, I think Eggman would alter and fix that as her maturity and intelligence are the things he values.

So yeah I see her as an ageless artifical intelligence program that happened to take the appearance of a child but that's the only sense she is one, she's designed to be ageless and with the intelligence of the adult middle aged man who coded her lol. I see people making her act like a toddler on Charmy and Cream levels (not to say they're dumb but I mean in terms of behavior) but really a closer match is Tails for her behavior and intelligence

[egg-emperor]

casino eggman kind of reminds me of a mob boss at times

That's because he is one! XD And he has the accent, the looks with the gold, the cigars, the style especially with his hat on, he's an Empire City Spagonian, his main deal is casinos. He's built like your typical idea of one in many ways lol. But the mass general public don't suspect a thing and he's well beloved and trusted.

He's great at deceit and hiding his crime life but that's the first thing people suspect in the rare cases they become suspicious and think something shady is going on because of all that. He usually has those that try to poke their noses in dealt with before they can either confirm or dismiss that though.

It's his self made organization and his crew members that help with his work around the casinos and other shell companies are members that get dirty jobs done for him and join him in his underground nightlife of crime where he's very infamous and wanted in the ways he'd be to the public if they knew his secrets.

But he's managed to keep his double life secret and reputation on the surface almost squeaky clean with his mostly immensely positive image, though he has haters as he does lovers from those who get a bad vibe or learn dark secrets behind closed doors but they're dealt with accordingly by any means necessary.

When anyone tries to ruin his decades long successful scheme, he does whatever it takes to make sure it doesn't come to light! The small few in the public that learn will never be believed or live to tell and neither will rival gangs in the underground, attempting it is a death sentence or turning themselves in.

Plus my fucked up sly bastard knows how to keep people mass deceived with his irresistible charm, charisma, and seduction and his master manipulation hehe 💜

[egg-emperor]

What if Eggman's robots in Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 were redesigned to look more Eggman-y?

I would've been much happier if they had more typical Eggman robot-esque designs! I see no reason for them to look so bland and colorless but it could've been due to the tone of the game because it's serious and 'realistic' and they think his usual robot designs and colors wouldn't fit. But his robots can absolutely fit in just fine and we've seen many examples in other games with a serious tone. Eggman doesn't need to have less fun and have boring robots for that lol

I'm really not a fan of when they take away the charm, creativity, and originality and give them such basic designs instead for any reason. It takes away a fun part of his personality that shines through his creations. His robots don't need to look bland and boring to be more intimidating and a great threat, just like Eggman himself doesn't. It's what he and his robots do that makes them evil and dangerous, not what they look like, and that's what's so great about them.

The bland designs are what I dislike about robots in games like 06, Forces, and the movie. The SCR-HDs are fine because Eggman is the secret CEO of MeteoTech, so it's clever and makes sense that the robots aren't obviously made by him. But it's also an example of what makes his typical robots so great- the way they typically stand out from any others. When he isn't trying to be discrete, they have unique designs that make you go "yep, those were made by Eggman alright!"

I like how they're dangerous but often toy-like. I like how some big mechs can be more visibly complex and intimidating like the Egg Dragoon for example, but still don't stray from his style. I like how some reflect his egotism and love and confidence in his appearance with their designs resembling his own rotund physique and/or having other features in common with him. I like how others are based on various insects/animals that look funny and cute but are deadly.

I've always loved how tons of Eggman's robot designs clearly have so much passion and effort put into them, showing how smart and creative he is to come up with these designs based on himself and all kinds of creatures with cool and fun ways for them to attack, even having some of their abilities take inspiration from the things that they're based on. I'll always love those much more than any of the generic models that look like they were mindlessly pumped out don't have that same creativity and passion put into them.

17: Preferred mode of dress and rituals surrounding dress

Eggman only wears clothing that's designed and tailored specifically for himself because he doesn’t have much choice. Because of his very unique body type, there aren’t clothes out there that can fit 100% comfortably. It was once a big problem for him, especially in early adulthood. But he’s been making his own clothes with the use of his machines for many years now, so it's no longer a struggle.

He can easily make his own versions of all kinds of clothing he always wanted but never existed in the perfect size for him before. Sometimes he just makes things out of spite, even if he thinks he'll never wear them. If he does try them on at some point, it can help him find new things that he likes to wear. He also enjoys designing original clothes and outfits. They're very creative and unique but he makes all of them look so great!

His wardrobe is actually impressively extensive, we just don't get to see a lot of it. The clothes he used for disguises in Shuffle was just a small glimpse! Because he's most often seen by others while wearing his main outfit, a lot of his other clothes can be used for disguises. He's expertly faked many different identities with them. But he also enjoys using them to dress up in general! He has a lot of variety and choices, but it's obvious that his most preferred is his main outfit.

He wears masculine and formal clothing most of the time, like his main outfit. He likes to dress smart, grand, and professional while still staying true to his unique style to stand out from the rest. He also has various suits to wear on certain occasions that he looks very handsome in! A lot of his formal clothing is more form-fitting to make his beautiful features, like his shape, look bold and noticeable! It's pretty much his default and preferred mode of all, and he almost wears it daily.

At first, his liking for more feminine clothing was completely private and he intended on keeping it that way until his robots found out. He occasionally wears slightly more feminine clothing in public but not anything like his skirts or dresses yet. If he did start, he'd eventually become confident and wear them with pride like he does with everything else. But he isn't at that stage yet, he's still overcoming his shyness of enjoying crossdressing.

He tries to keep his clothes fitting perfectly and comfortably, so he makes sure to get them tailored whenever necessary. But he tries to get extra wear out of clothing if it's getting too small too fast and that's why his coat has had signs of strain throughout media. He often ignores it for too long and ends up breaking zippers and popping buttons. He misjudges how much wear he can get out of clothing often out of being determined to use them for longer and he regrets it.

He can easily get quite uncomfortable in clothes with buttons and has to be especially careful when they start getting tighter on him, so he often limits them and has a preference for zippers. Unlike Boom Eggman's style, wearing a type of coat that folds across the stomach and chest and is buttoned up like his wouldn't be very comfortable for modern Eggman, due to his beautiful round shape and moobs that Boom lacks fhsksjfjsgdgm

His bodysuits, while very form-fitting and tight, still have a lot of stretching room to allow growing, so he doesn't have quite as much of a problem with it as his coat, at least until it gets too tight can't move freely without busting it. The times he has managed to were quite embarrassing to him. But there he'll wear a lot of clothing until it's far too uncomfortable to and when he can't handle it any longer or he finally busts them, he faces and deals with it at last.

A lot of his casual clothing is looser to give his body freedom and finally let everything hang out lol. For example, it's common for his tits to be more visible through less restrictive t-shirts and tank tops, along with the real size of his belly, since his form-fitting outfits hold a bit of it back. It's a big relief for him to free himself from them at the end of the day. It's also the time where he shows the most skin and wears his glasses less- if he isn't doing anything that requires him to see well at least- as his eyesight is bad.

He has a lot of different clothing to stay comfy in warmer and colder weather. Short-sleeved shirts and shorts are most ideal for keeping cool, but it varies with each outfit. When it helps to wear as little clothing as possible he’ll go shirtless, but only if he isn’t out in too much sun because his skin is sensitive to it. When swimming outdoors, he most often wears full-body swimsuits for that reason, but he’s always shirtless in indoor pools. In colder weather, he has big fluffy coats, scarves, and fuzzy gloves and boots so he can stay as warm and cozy as possible!

He also owns all of the various outfits that he wears for the Olympics, so they're always there for him to wear for any activities and exercises if he’s feeling up to it! He not only has all of his summer Olympics outfits that we see in 2020, but also winter ones that we just haven’t seen yet. This is not only a headcanon but a future prediction because I’ll love it if they also finally give the male characters a change of outfit in the next winter Olympics game! :D

His various sets of pajamas are typically looser too, unlike Boom Eggman's. The looser and lighter ones are more comfortable and easier for him to sleep in without overheating. He doesn't mind them having buttons, as long as he keeps it loose enough but it can be an issue when he's up to his usual nighttime snacking. In colder weather, he warms up with cozy soft PJs with nightcaps. He also likes to be only in his underwear or dressing gown when it's a bit warmer, or entirely naked when relaxing and/or trying to cool down.

Those are just a few examples and how he goes about them but with the help of his machines, he can make all kinds of clothing and outfits that are entirely comfortable for his beautifully unique form. The possibilities are endless as he enjoys a wide variety of different clothing! He absolutely loves the process of designing his own outfits and having them made to fit him perfectly in every aspect. Having everything made with his control, decisions, and fashion sense is the best and he wouldn’t have it any other way!

do you have any art of your self insert?

unfortunately I don't have any depictions of his human form for ref even though it's meant to be his primary cus I can't draw humans besides Eggman lol ^^;

I did make a wolf form version too though with the avatar creator and I do have art of him as a ref for those who prefer to draw anthros. here's what he looks like at least

drawn by charcoal-zone

drawn by mistahgrundy (with his correct color palette and details)

as an anthro he's around the typical height range of 3 to 4 ft

as a human, same outfit, muzzle color is skin color, fur is hair color short with no set style, height 5' 7", looks small with big Eggman hehe. has no distinct defining features- a generic cartoon guy, basically just the wolf humanized however is cool

wolf or human version is fine, whichever is best for you but I understand if it's too complicated if you'd prefer to only draw the human version but can't because there's no ref image

it'd be very appreciated if you did if possible but if not the thought alone is appreciated thank you! 😊💜
