#metal beaks lol they r cute

[sherbetlemonss]

Steel and Boyd stuff they r favs okay

In case the lil comic thing doesn’t make sense ->

Boyd asks Steel about his beak and Steel gives him an answer while tapping his beak making a *tunk tunk* sound. Boyd listens to him and then taps at his own beak which also makes a sound *tink tink. Boyd is delighted and begins to marvel about how they’re “the same!”

THE YAPPERRRR

Raini n mati thoughts (sonic edition)

While I looked at my tag for them I realized I call them package deal a lot. Theyre My Unbreakable Bond. Hell yeah.

Raini is a wolf!! She's so cool!!! I wanted her to be a big dog bc it was either that or a bird of sorts but I think she's more wolf like even if she would rock a beak. Also since she was made not "born" it would make sense for her mom to Magicka her up a big powerful body. Also reasons that will come up w mati also bc she gives whisper vibes lol

Mati I spend a lil bit more time thinking about since his origins (from when I was 12) are that he was an octopi shapeshifter like. Come on mimic is Right there. But also I wanted to play around with the idea of a chaos like being who also took diff forms. So he could be like. A Chao of sorts (I actually have an idea for a Chao oc that evolves into a mobían but coughs) BUT I also wanted to make him like. A bear. A small bear<3 cause matis whole thing is he wants to pet a bear lol. Anyway after looking at the bear family n realizing there's no small bears and that the closest are racoons (my thoughts bear> panda> red panda is not a bear but they're closest to racoons>racoon >tanukis shapeshift!!!) and so he's a tanukis and since he's a racoon dog I can make raini call him her puppy AUGH THEYRE SO CUTE.

Also for lack of a better term I'll be calling them mobians even if that's an Archie thing and I don't think thats game canon but alas.

I read this fic on AO3 "complex inquiries" it's about metal sonic finding purpose and coping w it's faulty code it is so good but I mention it bc it has a very interesting bit about names I found fun! Like human v mobians names and how humans have specific naming conventions Maria and Ivo are names but humans also have last names for family ties but mobians have names that normally represent them or that they hope to embody charmy for example for someone charming knuckles and sonic are also auto descriptive and "rose" is also a mobians name but Amy also has a human name! So she could be "Amy" rose! And tails is miles power which is a human name but "tails" is his mobían name that was given to him! So it's a very interesting way in which naming works. Now I don't know where I read this but also "the hedgehog" "the equidna" that's not really a last name per se but if there's two guys named "lucky" for example you would be looking for "lucky the sheep" instead of "lucky the dog" so it makes sense! It's like back when ppl used their place of living as last names of sorts. It has a name but Jesus from Nazareth kinda vibe y'know. Was tiny talking about religion on its oc post on yr bingo card. Anyway.

So raini is midnight here! Bc of her dark fur and also bc she's a night dweller OOO her mobían name was probably choose for her like she's a menace in the night and also Annie would be a human name mati gave to her while mati was a human name she gave to him! It comes from the og where mati calls raini ani as a nickname bc it's cute 💜 Man I was thinking of their mom being like a cat or a bat but making her human would make sense. Freaky old lady bio engineering weapons of chaos. Anyway mati is a tanukis so he shapeshifts and is like. A mythical creature. But he's a raccoon dog so everyone else would think that's what he is. Nobody would question why two dogs r close I think anyway mati is just mati since raini was the one to name him.i think it's both cute and also awful of her. Girl fullname my man, dang..

What else what else it's. Very late I can no longer think. Oh right I gave raini pants. I wasn't gonna but I did he also has visible eyebags she's slaying the look. They still have a seven year age gap bc i think that's peak agegap between sibs source: sonic n tails and me n my brother. Also alsooo in the drawing I did w their extra looks where I drew mati w rainis top and scarf thingy. I died dude they're so cute also mati wearing the scarf like his og design yayy image to da classics. Ok bye that's enough for today

Last time I talked about raini n mati was seven months ago I've earned the right to yap about them I think
