BONUS!

KYLE CROUSE: Next, Murdercide626 has a question. "How would you go about adapting Naugus into the games? What changes might you make to the character? Classic or Modern? And what kinds of interactions would he have with Eggman, if any?"

IAN FLYNN: Okay, hear me out, 'cause this is... I'm alone on this hill for this idea, okay? I freely admit that this is- this is the bonkers take, but hear me out: completely remake him as a Zeti. Okay? KYLE: Uh... y'know... y'know... IAN: He's already some weird monster man, it wouldn't take a whole lot to adjust him to still be familiar but be more Zeti-like. And instead of him being able to use his EM powers to control machines, he uses it to mess with the bio-electrical signals in your brain, so he has the mind control angle. KYLE: Hmm... okay, so he would be a modern character then, huh? IAN: Yeah. And all you gotta do is turn that 'N' sideways, and he's Zaugus. KYLE: [laughing] Zaugus! Well, I think you've done it, Ian. You have done it. Good old Zixis Zaugus. [chuckles] What kind of interactions would he have with Eggman, then? Would he manage to mind control Eggman? IAN: Yeah, like maybe Eggman's comin' in to invade and he's, y'know, EM-shielded all of his robots and gloatin' over the fact that the Deadly Six can't take control of them. Zaugus saunters on up, and is like [Ixis Naugus voice] "I may not control them, but I can control you!" Zoop! Mind-grab. KYLE: Boy, that-- IAN: [Mentok from Harvey Birdman voice] "That's taking the mind, Kyle!" KYLE: [laughing] That is horrifying! That's like... that is very- that is scary! Like, I think he might actually take over Eggman in terms of villainy in the series at that point. Hm. IAN: Like, maybe limit it to, like, it's gotta be within eye contact, it's gotta be point-to-point... maybe he can only really control one person at a time. But if you've got the keys to Eggman's Empire, or if you're using Sonic as your personal RC combatant, you can do some damage. I don't know, I think it could work. I think it could be neat. I- I also know it's a big ask of the SatAM crowd, but I don't know. I like it. KYLE: I- Someone- you could make it work! It could work. Someone's going to draw this, Ian. You know they will. IAN: Oh, go for it. KYLE: Let's see it! IAN: Even- you can keep, like, the mutant crab claw on the side as like, just extra weirdness. KYLE: Sure, sure. IAN: Give him back his old tail from SatAM that got forgotten in the Archie books. KYLE: [chuckles] Nice.

Not a fan of Geoffrey St. John as a guy, but man, am I obsessed with this guy in a "I want to see his very tragic backstory and then torture him for eternity because he's actually a fucking horrible person"

And it was this fucking page that made me have this feeling ESPECIALLY

The raw hopelessness of laying curled on the ground, knowing you're never getting out of the situation YOU put yourself in in the first place (<- half projecting)

Did someone say Archie Sonic re-imaginings?

...No?

Well, here it is anyway.

‘Bout time I finally really talk about Nigel and Naugus! With some of Nigel’s service chao Angel as well. Here’s the deets:

Naugus first started out as Maximillian’s (Nigel’s father) right hand man. Being the kingdom’s personal wizard and chief of magic. But naugus would end up betraying max and they both went to the zone of silence. Naugus would make a deal with max, stating that he will protect max from any sort of harm from the zone and other beings, if he would hand over his power. Max agreed and when they escaped, max reveals to naugus that the power that he thinks he has is actually in Nigel. That power being the ability to heal others and themselves, but also cause destruction. Naugus tries to fight Nigel for this, trying to keep him as a slave but failed, with Nigel and his friends locking him into the zone of silence until decades later.

Naugus made his grand return, but this time he’s grown much more powerful. He learns about eggman, striking a deal with him so he can take over the now Starlight Archipelago where Nigel is king. Naugus ambushed the castle, going down past the dungeon and into the room where the zone can be accessed much more easily. He opens it and brings forth chaos (not the being, but figurative chaos) and destruction in the form of crystals and disease. Nigel was going to flee with the rest of the kingdom but turned back to fight naugus. He ultimately failed however, but not before throwing both naugus and himself into the zone of silence. He would stay there for about three years before finally being rescued.

After being in the zone for so long, with crystals growing out of his body and having to live in pure silence, it took a mental and physical toll on his body. He can’t be in a room with no noise or else he’ll panic, thinking he’s once again in the zone. Because of this, he ended up being gifted a little chao that Sally named Angel. She would sing for Nigel and provide comfort when going through treatment. And it turns out he and his kids provided just the right enough amount of love and care to turn her into an Angel chaos chao! A very spoiled, sassy but loving chao.

If y’all have any questions feel free to ask I love answering things about my au!

So I have a theory about the Sonic SatAM episode "Super Sonic". In this episode, Dr. Robotnik learns of an ancient evil wizard named Lazaar who had been asleep for centuries.

Lazaar had a compendium of numerous powerful spells stored in a crystal computer. Naturally, Robotnik then tracks it down in order to wield its power for himself.

My theory/headcanon is this: Not only did Robotnik want this magic crystal so as to gain near omnipotence and crush any and all rebel groups opposing him (especially Sonic), but I believe he also wished to gain this magic power as a contingency.

A contingency for what? Why, none other than Robotnik's former associate, and fearsome wielder of the dark arts, Naugus.

Robotnik is obviously a master in the realm of science, but he has little means of fending off magical opponents. The only thing that could beat magic is magic.

And not only is Naugus a master of his craft, to the point that he can instantly transmogrify matter with a mere snap of his fingers, but after Robotnik's betrayal, Naugus has been fuming for many years in the Void, waiting to exact horrible vengeance on the scientist should he ever return.

So I believe that Robotnik was on the hunt for any old magic relics that could possibly fend off Naugus should the unthinkable happen and the old wizard managed to somehow free himself. It pays to be prepared, after all.

Unfortunately for Robotnik, Sonic and his rebel friends always managed to keep him from possessing any useful arcane artifacts, and that would cost him dearly...

[mischeva]

If Naugus has a 1,000,000 fans, I’m one of them. If Naugus has 10 fans, I’m one of them. If Naugus has 1 fan, that’s me. If Naugus has no fans, I am no longer on earth. If the world is against Naugus, I am against the world.

OK, this isn't much of a scene but I haven't posted in a while. I'm working on a scene with Bunnie so that'll be next.

Anyway, in this scene, this is soon after Snively has let Naugus out of the Void. Naugus used his magic to temporarily bring his generator back online. It tired Naugus out so Snively had him brought to the infirmary.

(image is a SatAM screenshot with a filter, I didn't draw it)

Snively stepped into the infirmary. Naugus lay in the nearest bed.

Immediately, Snively was surrounded by the medibots, their cold hands reaching out to access him.

"Ugh. Get away. I don't need help."

The Head Medi, a robot taller and slimmer than the others, insisted on running a handheld scanner over him. He sighed and allowed it, staring over at the wizard.

Naugus had his eyes shut, an IV running into his hand atop the blanket.

"You do not require assistance at this point, Sir."

Snively pushed past and stood near the wizard's bed. "He still looks rather peaked."

"The patient refused nanites, Sir."

"Huh." Snively wondered why. The microscopic medical robots quickly repaired injuries and illness, with minimal side effects.

He examined the wizened wizard. What an ugly creature, he thought. He'd never seen a Mobian like this before. The mage seemed cobbled together from leftover parts. A horn, a claw, a human-like face but ears like a goblin. I wonder if he's even from Mobius originally. An alien, like me.

Julian's words needled him. Snively, you pathetic fool! You should've killed him! Uncle was right, of course.

He stroked the laser pistol at his side. The Securitybot behind him could make an even bigger hole with that laser cannon. With his eyes on Naugus, he clutched the pistol's grip, starting to withdraw it.

I can't take a chance. You don't seem the type who will be happy playing second fiddle.

Maybe Naugus wouldn't mind, though? As long as he was given a place to stay and do his magical research? He could be a fine weapon against the furballs.

I don't know what his goals are. And he's powerful. A threat. I can handle the flea-bitten scum myself.

He nearly had the gun out, his jaw set, when the wizard's eyes fluttered. He let go of the grip as Naugus peered up at him.

"Small One. You've come to check on me?"

"Yes." A fake smile, but not too overdone. "How are you feeling? The nanites work wonders, don't they?"

"Do you mean those invisible machines, injected into one's bloodstream?" The wizard sniffed haughtily. "I do not trust such things."

Snively didn't bother to surpress an eyeroll. "Or maybe you thought I was shooting you up with something else."

"Are you planning to shoot me up, Small One?" The orange eyes dropped to Snively's gun side.

"Of course not."

"Mmmm. The eternal honesty of the Kintobors." The wizard smiled slightly, showing just a peek of those jagged teeth. "You do not trust easily. But we will benefit from each other. I wish to do my research. You wish to rule Mobotropolis free of rebel resistance. I can help you, and you can help me."

Snively was quiet a moment before intoning dryly: "It's Robotropolis."

"Oh, you have not changed it to Snivotropolis?"

"Gods no. That sounds ridiculous."

The shark teeth showed more now. "You have more sense than Robotnik. I implore you, Small One, give me a chance. You could kill me anytime, I know. But you will be tossing aside what will be a great partnership."

Snively kept his face perfectly blank. His patented poker face. He'd heard the bullshit before. Trust me. Greatness together.

"What exactly is your research going to entail?"

"I am intrigued in testing my magic on the body and mind. Testing my own limitations. If I could borrow some of your myriads of prisoners, of course."

Snively didn't answer that. Naugus must not know their prisoners were all metal-plated.

"And there is still much to learn of the Void. I fear my crystal affliction is not completely resolved."

"You have Robotnik for that first use." Snively smiled crookedly. "If you don't damage him too badly, he'll last you a while."

"Oh, yes. I intend to use him. And he can work for you as well. He can take the daily menial burdens off you."

Snively didn't like this. The acquiescence inside him. Don't be stupid, Uncle hissed in his mind. Eliminate him!

Perhaps he spoke to defy Robotnik. Perhaps there was a chance this teamup could work. Perhaps he was just lonely.

"I haven't ended our partnership. You may stay here, and I will assist your research within reason. And you will do the same for me?"

"Of course, Small One."

Snively sighed. "It's Snively, actually."

A/N: that's it for now! I don't really want to post all the Robotropolis Sniv stuff at once because it has some 'plot points.' Lol. Even though a kindergartener could write a better plot than me.
