You ship espilver? What do you like about it? (I see a lot of people ship it but idk why but it’s cute)

Honestly, I like them because they are SUCH a hysterical duo. I've had people ask me why I made Mirage (my Espilver fankid) such a jerk, but like. Silver and Espio can both be absolute dickwads LMAO.

I first started liking them back in Sonic Rivals, where they first met! Most people ship Espio/Silver because of their friendship in IDW, but I think Rivals really highlights what makes their relationship so appealing to me.

Once they are on the same side, they are basically ride or die. It's so funny. There is a scene where Silver runs out of rings and can't use his telekinesis, so Espio proposes that they steal rings from Sonic and Tails for their own use.

Silver is like Yeah!! Good idea!! And willfully goes to shake down an 8-year-old for his lunch money, HAHA!! He even calls Tails "half-pint" like. Wtf is his problem.

They are super supportive of one another, too. Despite Silver's abrasive personality, Espio admits early on that for some reason he can't explain, he trusts the guy.

They encourage and support each other throughout the game, with Espio doing his best to restore Silver's confidence at several instances.

And when they succeed, they directly credit each other! Silver also sounds pretty flustered when Espio expresses his gratitude, it's super cute!! Definitely worth listening to the voice acting for this scene alone.

And of course, they have plenty of great scenes in the IDW comics! Espio is the first person to realize something is troubling Silver, and he reaches out to him in private in an attempt to comfort him.

So yeah, they are super cute!! ❤️ (I'm also a Silvaze shipper, but Espilver ended up being canon in my fankid AU bc I knew I wanted to make a Blazamy kid early on! My sapphic heart could not resist the pink/purple gfs.)

Name ✨Stellar the Hedgehog✨

Age Varies based on what age I draw her, but let's say 16!

Pronouns She/Her

Basic Description The product of Project Stellar—a secret government operation aiming to perfect Project Shadow—Stellar is a genetic experiment combining the DNA of the Ultimate Life Form and the fastest thing alive. Designed to be a living weapon, Stellar was born in a hidden facility where she would have been raised to be an unstoppable weapon for the military. Thankfully, Shadow the Hedgehog (with help from Rouge the Bat) discovered her existence, destroyed the lab, and rescued her as an infant. Shadow then went on to begrudgingly inform his long-time rival, Sonic the Hedgehog, of their newfound child, seeing as she was technically just as much Sonic's problem as she was Shadow's. From there, the duo (along with help from their friends) raised Stellar as their daughter, sheltering her from the knowledge she was created to be a force of destruction for her masters. Along the way, Sonic and Shadow found themselves truly falling for one another, dissolving the barriers they had placed between one another as rivals, finding new appreciation for each other in their new parental roles.

Stellar herself is a bright, warm-hearted person. She has a strong sense of justice and never shies away from standing up for what is right. She takes after Sonic in personality, always cracking jokes and finding it hard to sit still. Despite this, she inherited Shadow's finesse and ability to plan out her choices, not to mention his abilities to utilize chaos energy. She has a love for figure skating, ballet, and make up (thanks to Auntie Rouge!), but don't let her feminine side fool you, she is not afraid to get her hands dirty! She would love nothing more than to spend her day smashing badniks into the ground with her skates if her dads would let her! Stellar loves both of her parents dearly, but sometimes wishes that they wouldn't be so protective of her. After all, what could they possibly have to be worried about?

Extra ✨Stellar's favorite color is red. ✨Her favorite food is chili dogs. ✨She is bisexual. ✨Her favorite flower is lavender, because it reminds her of home! ✨She learned how to skate from Shadow. ✨She calls Shadow "papa" and Sonic "dad". ✨She desperately wants to make her family and friends proud. ✨Her best friend is Camellia the Cat, the daughter of Blaze and Amy. ✨She loves racing Sonic, but is frustrated he always lets her win. ✨She can be VERY impulsive when angered, much like both of her parents! ✨She is SUPER dense when it comes to romance. She has no idea Camellia has been in love with her since they were little! ✨The inhibitor rings she wears keep her powers under control, but they also prevent her from truly mastering them. ✨Her powers are designed after collapsing stars/black holes. Extremely destructive to both herself and everything around her. ✨She has no awareness to the extent of the latent power inside her.

Hey. If you voted for Trump, get the fuck away from me. Not even joking.

You are NOT welcome here.

The way that my Andromeda doodles are probably going to hit 3k and one half is people thinking she's fem Shadow and the other half is people gooning about her is SO funny to me

[emthimofnight]

oooooooo do you have any interactions of jasper and warden or any headcannons of their relationship and does knuckles or rogue like him what about jade (sorry for being nosy just really interested)

OMG YOU AREN'T BEING NOSY AT ALL!!! 🥺❤️ It makes me so happy that people are interested in my silly little AU!

Warden finds Jasper to be exhausting, honestly. Can you imagine trying to collect a bounty on someone, and they won't stop hitting on you the whole time?? He drives him crazy. 😂 He would have decided the bounty wasn't worth it a long time ago if it hadn't become a matter of pride at this point. Jasper doesn't mind being chased around by a big handsome wolf, he finds it entertaining, if anything.

As for his parents? Rouge thinks it's cute. 😆 Baby's first wanted poster!! Knuckles is less enthusiastic, he wishes Jasper wouldn't cause so much trouble, and he worries about him getting hurt. Jade doesn't really care either way, she's happy to see her brother having fun! However, if she saw Warden actually trying to hurt her brother he would have her to deal with. Eggman has found out she is not the pacifist he originally thought her to be when he tried to use Jasper as a hostage in the past!

(forgive my messy sketches)

A reminder, I have a Bluesky for those who are hating Twitter as much as I am!! (Tumblr is my main squeeze anyhow)

[emthimofnight]

Welcome to the login page :))

This is so insane to me, dude 🥹💞 What an honor!!

[emthimofnight]

WHAT DO U MEAN MY SHADOW ART GOT FEATURED ON THE TUMBLR RADAR??? 😳 AHHHHH 🥹💞

[emthimofnight]

Shadow pretends to hate hugs and cuddles when other people are around.

He absolutely doesn't, he will actively seek out Sonic for cuddles and warmth when the two are alone together.

LOL I like to imagine Shadow is very touch starved. He was only ever really physically affectionate with Maria and he doesn't really know how to go about expressing his fondness for anyone else. Thankfully, Sonic is pretty forward and is usually the initiator, so he can take a bit of a backseat and just reciprocate at his own pace.

I do think that once they get closer and their situationship evolves into Sonic crashing at his place all the time, Shadow would slowly start being more affectionate behind closed doors. No need to worry about someone seeing him let his guard down! He will still get annoyed if Sonic teases him too much about being touchy-feely with him, but thankfully Sonic is at least tactful enough to know when to pump the brakes with his teasing. He doesn't want to scare Shadow off, after all!

If he's caught being snuggly with Sonic by anyone else, though, he will immediately grab him by the arm and throw him as far as he can away from him LMFAO

...Sonic doesn't mind. He thinks it's fun. 😂

To all my fellow USA residents who are of voting age—vote. I'm so serious. Every vote counts. A tiny droplet of water can become a giant wave.

I want my grandma to live to see the first woman president.

Considering making a Sonic/Fankid discord for all my homies.... would you guys be interested in that??

[emthimofnight]

hey. can i talk to you for a moment about your decision to give stellar two separated eyes but still keeping sonic and shadow uni-eyed? like, whats going on there /j

LOLLLLLLL I mean, Sonic and Shadow DO have two eyes (confirmed by SEGA), it's just a stylistic choice that hearkens back to old American rubberhose characters, like Steamboat Willie and Felix the Cat! I decided to ditch that stylistic choice for Stellar so that her eyes could become a linchpin for her design.

I wanted her to clearly be related to both of her dads, but also have a sort of artificial feel to her, symbolizing her sinister origins. Early in the design process, I decided that having her eyes differ from both of them (both in color and style) would give the viewer an inkling that she is not all she seems.

[emthimofnight]

are there any core personality traits that both normal stellar and villain stellar share?

Yes they do! 😁

At her core, Stellar is a curious, intelligent, and fun-loving person. Even Villain!Stellar inherited the playful gene from Sonic, despite the fact she hides it very well. I imagine without the watchful eye of her supervisors and the immense weight of all the expectations set upon her, she'd actually have a very quiet soft side.

I can see her seeing a kitten in real life for the first time and being totally enamored, crouching down to pet it with a small smile on her tired face. Maybe stopping to admire a blooming cherry tree, or taking a seat in an open, sunny field just to feel the wind in her quills.

Ingrained within her is the innate love of Earth, a feeling that was passed down from both of her parents. I think a lot of her life is spent locked up, so those brief moments she is allowed out on some top secret mission, she really memorizes every new thing she gets to see. After all, her room back at Cosmic Labs is sterile, sparsely decorated, and blindingly florescent.

She is also a very emotional person, but in this AU that aspect of her is greatly suppressed, meaning her outbursts of emotion are far more explosive than her hero counterpart. She bottles things up, quietly resents, and simmers in her rage.

I even think she has her sense of justice, still, albeit twisted. She is basically brainwashed, so she THINKS she's on the right side of the fence, even if she's not. It's also what makes her so passionate about her missions, she sees it as a way of proving her worth and securing validation. She has no parental figures besides the scientists that raised her, so her self-esteem is almost entirely hinged upon her identity as the Perfected Ultimate Lifeform, as that is what they expect her to be.
