I've been super excited over your stuff ever since I stumbled upon it, and so I've finally unearthed myself from the shadows wheeze--
I was wondering if slugger ever went dark for some reason, would Uncle Scourge be able to talk him down from it? 👀
There is a fic I am writing where this exact question is one of the story arcs. Since it is such a long time away and such a interesting topic to me I don't mind telling even if it might be "spoilers". Also because it got so long, I'm putting it under the [read more] below.
A lot of this au does focus on the similarities and differences between what makes a "Sonic" vs what makes a "Scourge". The charm of Wachowski and Uncle's relationship is less of a "sweet, summer child tames the villain" and more "Scourge finally learns to change for the better now that there is someone in his life who is genuinely invested in him as a person and doesn't want to screw him over, and Wachowski has his coming-of-age story under the guidance of the one Sonic in the multiverse that not only rejected that title but isn't invested in Wachowski becoming a Sonic."
That isn't to say that his parents (The Wachowski's) are pressuring him. In fact it becomes a point in Scourge's favor in a side story where Tom and Maddie assign Uncle as Wachowski's caretaker in the event the worst were to happen to Tom and Maddie. The Wachowski's want their son to be a kid. Uncle just wants Wachowski to be a kid.
The other Blue Devils are also not pressuring Wachowski either really, but they are all Sonics who accepted their place as heroes for better or for worse. They understand and encourage that heroic drive in Sonic because they have seen what happens to worlds without one (scourge's world included). They just don't fully understand the kid in this au because they never had the choice for a normal life like Wachowski does in this au, they are heroes 24/7, no breaks, no vacations, always on the grind. Scrafz (boom sonic) is the closest to being done with it all but even he can't ignore the call for the hero.
Scourge encourages "selfishness" in Wachowski in the form of not being "self-sacrificing" all the time. Cause if Wachowski is so dead set on being a "hero" he is gonna make sure he isn't a door mat like Scarfz ((yes Scarfz would take offense to that)). This approach of Scourge's means he will leave the kid to making his and owning his own decisions and will not tell him what to do. He wont pussy foot around the truth, Wachowski cannot save everyone. ((please note, Scourge goes through a very unfortunate series of events, trials and tribulations to gain these little bits of wisdom throughout the au, this is not a inherent/unearned part of Scourge's character))
So this is a lot of context and I haven't answered your question. There was a what if scenario I played around with in this au where Tom and Maddie were killed and Uncle had to take on his role as caretaker. Wachowski in this scenario was so heartbroken and furious at the drunk driver who killed his parents he sought revenge, essentially he was going to go kill this person who got away with killing his parents. Wachowski chose Scourge to come with him because he figured Scourge wouldn't judge him first of all, but also would understand and possibly encourage him or help ease his guilt/hesitation. Scourge didn't encourage, but he didn't discourage. He purely left that choice up to Wachowski. This was a moment where I saw Wachowski making a choice to become a Sonic or to become a Scourge. Wachowski chose not to act on his anger in that moment. Scourge figured the kid's kind nature would win out, but if it didn't? Well, he'd help bury the body he supposed. Still, I like this idea of Uncle grounding the kid not via shaming him but really getting Wachowski to ask himself why and pick an answer he was happy with. Uncle knew if he told the kid he couldn't/shouldn't Wachowski would follow but he would be eaten up inside having not come to the conclusion himself. Also, if he encouraged the kid, Uncle knows how much killing someone in a act of revenge fucks you up, and there would be a chance Slugger would become bitter not only towards himself but towards Scourge for pushing him towards murder. Its a lose-lose, cause what Wachowski needed in this what-if scenario, was agency in his grief and feeling powerless. If he talks slugger down, its less of a "remember who you are Simba" and more of a "this is a one way street if you go down it kid, what are you gonna do?"
Now how will I adapt it in the fic I'm working on? I'll keep some of my secrets lol but the emotional core are very much the same. This is a moment that I think highlights the uniqueness of their relationship and the part I love exploring.

Hello mystery. :) I've got 2 things to say.. 1. I love your account and your AU of the Sonic Movie. It's super cute and I've always looked these posts before I even made this account. IDK if that's important tho. 2. I've noticed that you liked making headcanons for Movie!Sonic and some other characters. So let me ask you this: Do you have any headcanons for how Movie!Sonic might act around the other Sonics? (Modern!Sonic, Boom!Sonic, etc.)
Awww! Thank you very much, friend. I’m very glad that you love my blog. I appreciate you sharing your voice with me as well! I’m very glad that you’ve made an account as well, welcome to Tumblr! It’s very nice to see ya! I hope that you’re liking it so far!
I shall honor your request, I lhink that it’s a great suggstion! It’s unique and I like thinking outside the box on this one, Here are my headcanons for them all:
I can definitely see Sonic Wachowski viewing all of the other Sonics as his older brother... even Classic Sonic is viewed as an older brother. Every alternate version of Sonic--yes, I include STC!Sonic in this scenario--views Sonic W. as this sweet little kid who just wants to be seen and to make friends.
The alternate Sonics also happen to be very protective of Sonic W., sometimes they can be too protective, like pick him up and carry him around if Sonic W. accidentally hurt himself or if they see Sonic W. start to tear up and cry, but they love him. Boom!Sonic won’t ever admit it, but he’s the most overprotective one out of the group.
Sonic Wachowski is the only “Sonic” that can break STC!Sonic’s exterior shell. He’s also the only one who really treats STC!Sonic as a human being--I mean hedgehog. (Sonic W. figures that STC!Sonic just needed to be seen). In return, STC!Sonic is kinder and much more considerate to Sonic Wachowski.
IDW!Sonic can relate more to Sonic W.’s PTSD, anxiety, and nightmares. Even though their experiences are different, they are very commutative and both come up with strategies for coping mechanisms. They work hard to build each other up.
Archie!Sonic (Before and after the Genesis Wave) thinks that Sonic W. is the sweetest little baby in the whole universe. He acts a bit more of a parent to Sonic Wachowski, but he loosens up a bit and often takes him to do some fun stuff in New Mobotropolis. The same can be said for OVA!Sonic, but there’s always fun things to do at the Land in the Sky and on the beach.
Both Modern and Classic Sonic love to challenge Sonic Wachowski to races. Together, they’ve raced across the planet at least 1,000 times this month. (Classic gets a kick out of Sonic W. the most due to the streak of blue and lightning that he leaves behind. Classic thinks that it;s the coolest thing). They also like to take the child on adventures, such as Mystic Ruins or to Seaside Hill for the afternoon.
Sonic!X and and Sonic W. are obsessed with flower picking and hiking in the mountains. They also have a large garden that they constantly work on and they love to make flower crowns.
Zonic the Zone Cop (Am I the only one that remembers Zonic?) is like Tom Wachowski, but a bit more strict. However, Sonic Wachowski can get Zonic to release some of his stress and open up a bit. Zonic doesn’t have super speed like the rest of the other Sonic’s but he enjoys some friendly competition from him. Sonic W. is also the only Sonic that can get Zonic to smile.
All of the Metal Sonic’s but Shard try to capture him. Shard protects Sonic W. from the other counterparts and treats him like royalty. Sonic W. thinks that he’s cool because robots are cool, therefore, he’s good in his book.
Gremlin!Sonic and Sonic W. are like brothers. Even though Sonic W. is the youngest, be often sticks up for his older brother and thinks highly of him. Gremlin!Sonic does the same in return. He’s also very gentle and caring to Sonic W. In the end, Sonic W. is very fortunate to have an older brother like him.
