Sally and Shadow have a similar amount of depth to their stories.
A lot of Sonic fans don't like Sally, and a lot of them attribute it to her Lore being complicated
Even though we have Shadow's story right there
Not to dis on Shadow.
Shadow and Sally have really over complicated backstories. And they both work inside the Sonic universe.
They both talk about how lost you can feel when someone manipulates you, and breaking away from people's control over you will make you whole again.
They do take one different meaning and different goal for each: Sally is a lot more focused on helping her people be free even if it kills her, Shadow's honors Maria's wish to portect humanity but will do it in his own way following his path.
Their plot lines are so strong that a lot of the comics/games stories have a big focus on them, considering how detailed their stories are. So much so that you can say Shadow & Sally have their personal Villains (Black Doom, Mephiles, Infinite) & (Ixis Naugus, the SoA, King Max).
Now, they aren't inherently tied to Shadow or Sally, but they connect to their backstories that they have a bigger connect that even Sonic does.
End of my rambling
But yeah, this is all to say that Sally works in the Sonic universe, be it JP or US.

I'm so excited and proud of this boy. He's just getting better & better. Today he ate some mustard greens for the first time, didn't even skip eating a day or two to protest first. Ate a full third of the greens I put down. So he got roaches as a reward & was SO quick to zoom over when I showed him the bowl. Chomped them all down in no time!
And as you can see, he's shedding!!! Already gotten a bit off the neck. The rest of his body is getting dusty looking, so will be joining the party soon.
I'm just so happy about him today.

so, Greenwood cats.
(hear me out, hear me out)
Norwegian Forest Cats:
larger and more powerful than most domesticated housecats, they're adapted to colder climates, with very thick and long fur. they take 5 years to fully mature. as the name implies, before domestication they occupied Scandinavian forests
Ocelots:
on all fours adults come up to a human's knees. historically, they were sometimes kept as pets by Aztecs and Incans. they take 2 years to fully mature. they're active at twilight and night, and live solitary. they require dense foliage cover, which often means forests
etymology:
while The Hobbit's Mirkwood is not the only instance of the name, Tolkien has admitted its roots to be in early German, Old English, Old Swedish and Old Norse
the Old Norse word for a domestic cat (tom-cat specifically, but isn't it always) is köttr. in terms of lotr-invented animals, Warg is drawn directly from the Old Norse word for wolf, vargr
(side-note: Teldivo was a giant black cat in Tolkien's early development of lotr, later replaced by Sauron, so the idea of Big Version of Real Animal wasn't lost on him)
and what does this all amount to, you ask?
well, that quite neatly for a fantasy world, Greenwood's forests could feasibly be inhabited by large wild-cats known as Kottur.
(as decided by the author of this post, who has a frightenly loose concept of deriving words from others lol)
and with that said, here's a fun fact about Norse tradition: cats were often given as wedding gifts to brides. this was done to honour Freyja, the goddess of love and fertility, whose chariot was pulled by... Norwegian Forest Cats! who would've guessed
also want to add that -- as i've said before but a while ago -- i don't put much stock in elves marrying. they just... live too long for that kind of monogamous commitment. 'til death do us part' doesn't really carry much weight, does it? however, i am willing to say that some elves choose to 'bond' with one another, sort of entertwining their lives without the rather daunting promise of a singular eternity. and yes, polyamoury and divorce. again, they live too damn long for the expectation of one partner in an entire population to be sensical
so to bring this together, here's my concept:
newly bonded Greenwood elves sometimes gift their partners a Kottur kitten, not to be luxuriously treasured pets but to act as hunting companions and protectors. considering Silvans' deep bond with nature, it's plausible, no?
(kittens only, because once Kottur start hitting maturity it becomes nigh impossible to train them)

Slip Jackson mindlessly doodles all over his arms. There are always chemical structures and formulas, little diagrams of moons and stars, tiny hearts, and smiley faces.
He probably absentmindedly doodles on Petya's arms too.
Don't ask me how I know this. I just do.

Behold, the borrower employee, Acorn. She is very small, but she is a hard worker and does her best. She uses her trusty needle to climb and defend herself.
Blame the tiny employee mod for this.

How can you mistake an acorn falling and hitting the ground for a gunshot?!
HOW?!
I don’t get it!
Was this an unexpected instance of sudden rapid onset brainrot?!
