#it didnt go straight from eggman saying sonic was after the master emerald shards to knuckles attacking without evidence

[aphantimes]

knuckles' gullibility is such a fun trait ik it's kinda overdone and people are probably sick of it but honestly i wanna see more of it it's so endearing he's so silly

mm. but i feel like the it doesn't get utilised properly a lot of the time. theres a few instances where we're just told he gets tricked but not shown how and that makes it seem like he's just dumb when his gullibility's supposed to come from a belief in the good of others. and specifically in x a lot of the time he gets tricked bc his compassion is preyed upon. it makes a lot of sense for someone that grew up in isolation with no concept of deceit and i find that really interesting!!! i want that to be explored more!!

he's not the kind to try to redeem people but if anyone, even enemies, come to him in a time of need wants to help them out!! i love that about him. he tries to be an immovable mountain but he's veryyy easily swayed by others lol it's so fun
