Sonic Disability Headcanon #2 Traumatic Brain Injury / Tails Becoming Sonic’s Carer 

Sonic gets into a car accident as a passenger (he wasn’t wearing a seatbelt), and develops a devastating traumatic brain injury. It was very touch and go whether the hedgehog was going to survive, and he was in an induced coma for 2 months. 

The doctors warned Sonic’s friends that the damage done to Sonic’s brain was immense, and that he was never going to be the same again, and they didn’t know whether he was ever going to wake up at all. But Tails never gave up hope. 

He made a promise to Sonic that no matter what happens, he was going to look after him for the rest of his life. 

Sonic did eventually wake up, but he now was blind in one eye (the opposite side of his brain injury), could only speak broken English, had epilepsy (caused by the brain injury), could no longer eat on his own, he was incontinent, and would require around the clock care, and was advised that he would need to go into a care home. 

But Tails was absolutely not going to let that happen. He would step up, and become Sonic’s full time carer. He adapted their home where they already lived together to fit Sonic’s needs, making things more simplified, installing a downstairs toilet and bedroom, removing anything that could cause harm to the hedgehog, etc. 

Knuckles no longer knew how to communicate with Sonic anymore, and Amy was so devastated by what happened she completely distanced herself from the hedgehog. Tails was so disappointed by their actions. He still loved his brother more than anything, and would never, ever abandon him. Having a profound brain injury didn’t change Sonic and Tails’ unbreakable bond whatsoever. 

So every day, Tails would put Sonic to bed, clothe him, help him in and out the bath and wash him, lift him onto the toilet several times a day, feed him baby formula food by hand (to avoid Sonic choking), give him medication and stay right by his side during his seizures. 

Basically, Tails was with Sonic every waking moment, he did everything for Sonic all day every day, and he didn’t mind one bit. 

Sonic gave him a name, gave him a home, adopted him, loved him when no one else did. And Tails will forever love Sonic for everything he’s done for him over the years. 

And the hedgehog almost died. Tails couldn’t imagine a world without Sonic. 

And whilst Sonic is almost a vegetable now, Sonic still knows Tails is there for him, and the fox is the *only* person he still recognises from his past. For he often smiles when Tails tells him he loves him, he’ll squeeze the fox’s hand when he agrees to something, and he reaches out for a hug daily, which he’ll only do for Tails.

Tails is the best little bro anything could ever ask for!

Sonic Disability Headcanon #1 Migraines & Headaches 

Sonic has suffered from chronic migraines and headaches since he was a child. He always has Ibuprofen and Sumatriptan stored in his glove cuffs to manage the pain in case an attack happens whilst he’s out on his adventures. He’s always been embarrassed about it, as headaches and migraines are wider known as something females suffer from more than guys. Amy Rose suffers from migraines too, but Sonic’s NEVER told her about his migraines. He doesn’t want a fuss. 

Sonic’s migraine auras have been so bad over the years he’s ended up being hit by Eggman’s robots on numerous occasions, as he either loses his vision for some time, or it becomes severely distorted from a migraine aura and he doesn’t see an attack coming. 

Sometimes, Sonic’s migraines hinder him bedridden for a day or two, and he stays in his room, and lays in pitch black darkness. Or he’ll wear dark sunglasses until it passes over. 

Eating too much chocolate, not getting enough sleep, or being exposed to flashing lights trigger a bad headache or migraine, so he actively tries his best to moderate his chocolate intake, get plenty of sleep and closes his eyes when he sees flashing lights, or else he will be in trouble some hours later! 

The hedgehog should really see a specialist to find out exactly why he has such bad headaches and migraines at his age, but Sonic being Sonic likes to brush off his condition, he doesn’t want to burden the health service with something he feels they will see as a minor issue, even though to Sonic, it leaves a huge impact on his life due to their frequency, especially the older he gets.

Disabled Sonic

Disabled Sonic hc theory-

If Sonic were to get into a devastating life changing accident and suffered a significant injury, for example:

He suffers a serious head injury leaving him permanently brain damaged and needing around the clock care with eating, drinking, going to the toilet, getting out of bed, being taught to walk every day, etc.

He broke his neck and became a complete quadriplegic, unable to move and reliant on a breathing tube and confined to a wheelchair. Needs help with every day tasks such as bed transfers to and from wheelchair, changing breathing tube, eating, drinking, going to toilet, etc.

Or (not accident related but wanted to include it here) he suffers a massive stroke and becomes paralysed down one side, has to go to daily physiotherapy sessions and is left with significant disability.

Do you think Tails would become his full time carer, or do you think Sonic would end up being put into care?

I personally think Tails would absolutely be there for Sonic 24/7, even if it means his disability will be permanent with no cure. To Tails, he’s still Sonic, and I feel he would stop his whole life plans to become a full time carer to his brother 🥺

What does everyone else think?

Also, welcome to my new disability Sonic hc page! expect many posts like these in the future :)

Planning 100 Disability Sonic HC Scenario’s

The current goal I’ve set myself, is to write out 100 Sonic disability/ illness hc scenario’s in my iPad notes, to post to my Tumblr. I’m currently up to 22. I want Sonic to battle every disability and illness going! He needs to be a disabled icon! that people with certain disabilities and illness can relate to Sonic to.

Feel free to send in ideas via “Ask me anything” if you like :)

New To Tumblr

Hey guys! I’m new to Tumblr 👋

For the last 20 years, I have had a passion for disabled/ injured/ illness Sonic head canons. I love portraying Sonic in my head as an imperfect hero. I love imagining him suffering from life changing injuries, battling illnesses, developing disabilities, etc. and Tails is always his carer.

I come up with stories in my head, very sad, upsetting stories that are often brutal, I write them down in my notes, but never post them as I feel no one else shares my same passion.

Up until now, I have never found a community to be apart of that supports disability Sonic hc’s, until I stumbled upon Tumblr. I have no idea how this site works. I cannot draw, but I can write. I’m not sure if you can post short stories here, but I’m gonna give it a try!

Look forward to making likeminded disabled Sonic hc friends on here!
