#not the way to do it. like saying ''amy and sonic are so siblings!!!!'' is not the win you think it is (yes i have actually seen ppl say

[infizero]

i think interpreting dynamics that dont have any canon basis to be familial as familial is totally fine but a) you cannot act like this is canon fact and, in tandem with that, b) you cannot attack people for interpreting it differently. believe me i am all for killing people who sexualize ACTUAL familial/familial-coded dynamics with knives but you have got to understand that just bcuz these two characters are friends does not mean they are siblings and it does not mean you get to get mad at others when they inevitably ship them

The Shadora Horde - 2023!

Here are all the ShadowXAurora kids I've made (so far hahaha!). As I always mention, I'm always open to Shadora fankids that you guys make. I can never have too many Shadora babies. I made changes to the original 5 so they're now closer in age and I also balanced out their powers more. Some of them were a little OP originally but I think I've fixed it. I have super detailed descriptions of each character below the cut!

PIPER

Birthday: 11/12 (1st Born)

Age: 16

Role: Leader

Powers: Combustion, Weapon Summoning

Weaknesses: Disorder

Dream Voice Actor: Brittany Snow

Theme Song: “Smile” - Wolf Alice

Piper is the first born in the first litter of Aurora and Shadow and is the natural leader of the group. She is generally sweet and respectful but is very proud of her pedigree so can be a little judgemental at times. She is a perfectionist to a fault and will become easily aggravated if things don’t go her way. Though she can be cocky, she is overall a caring and loving person and is quick to help those in need. Piper has naturally wild bangs and a large patch of fluffy fur on her chest. These traits drive her crazy! She always has her bangs pinned down to the side and her chest fur covered up. In her teen years she takes up motorcycle riding and it helps loosen her up and embrace her more wild side. 

Piper is capable of harnessing the power of the Chaos Emeralds to perform Chaos Blast and Chaos Control. Without the need for Chaos Emeralds, Piper has combustion powers. Piper can incinerate objects with a snap of her fingers. She has excellent mastery and precision of this skill. She was given the task to train Cinder to control his combustion powers, but the two tend to get frustrated with each other since control comes so naturally to Piper and it’s incredibly foreign to Cinder.

Piper is naturally drawn to Amy’s hammer wielding abilities and grows up admiring it. Though she isn’t allowed to use the Piko Piko Hammer, Amy trains her in good hammer-form with the use of props. IF Mammy Amy ever decides to retire, she will bequeath her hammer to Piper. The hammer’s design will change based on Piper’s personality.

ZANE

Birthday: 11/12 (2nd Born)

Age: 16

Powers: Super Speed

Weaknesses: Arachnophobia 

Dream Voice Actor: Robert Buckley

Theme Song: “We Are Young” - 3OH!3

Zane is the second born in the first litter of Aurora and Shadow. Zane is a daredevil and an extreme extrovert. He is most like his Pawpaw Sonic with his quick wit and high energy. He does not like emotional confrontations and will go out of his way to avoid uncomfortable situations. Even though he’s mostly easygoing, he butts heads with his dad a lot. 

Zane is a huge flirt and frequently develops intense crushes on people, but due to his short attention span, he’ll move on quickly (think Romeo with Rosaline). Zane is very fond of children and enjoys being the center of attention. Even though Piper is the leader of the group, the younger siblings tend to follow whatever Zane is doing. Lucky for Piper, he mostly listens to what she says.

Zane is capable of harnessing the power of the Chaos Emeralds to perform Chaos Control. Without the need for Chaos Emeralds, Zane has super speed. He wears special shoes that can transform based on his needs, but he prefers the motocross boot style when he’s not running.

For hobbies, Zane likes to do extreme stunts and attend/throw parties. He has dreams of being a DJ with his brother Nova.

NOVA

Birthday: 11/12 (3rd Born)

Age: 16

Powers: Plasma (Ionikinetic Combat)

Weaknesses: Laziness

Dream Voice Actor: Josh Keaton

Theme Song: “Weirdo” - K.Flay

Nova is the third born in the first litter of Aurora and Shadow. He is very peaceful in nature and would rather find roundabout ways to solve problems than coming to blows (though he attributes this to knowing he would cream his opponent due to this strong bloodline). He’s a bit of an oddball but he embraces his quirkiness instead of being concerned about how others think of him. He often comes off as aloof and is rather lazy.

Nova is capable of harnessing the power of the Chaos Emeralds to perform Chaos Control. Without the need for Chaos Emeralds, Nova has plasma/Ionikenetic powers. He can shoot radioactive plasma at his enemies which can burn or dissolve material on impact. Nova does not like using his powers because they are so destructive. 

Nova is very close with his brother Zane and will go along with his schemes, even if his heart’s not entirely in it. He is artistic and tends to live a very messy, disheveled lifestyle. He loves to collect things and can be considered a packrat. 

-

ASTER

Birthday: 4/8 (4th born)

Age: 15

Powers: Telekinesis, Telepathy

Weaknesses: Codependency 

Dream Voice Actor: SungWon Cho [x]

Theme Song: “Despair and Traffic” - SOFT PLAY

Aster is the first born in the second litter of Aurora and Shadow. Though he seems rough on the surface, he’s actually the most academically intelligent of all his siblings. He is loud and passive aggressive but can appreciate the beauty in peace and quiet when he chooses. He is very theatrical and enjoys making a huge spectacle out of his battles, including saying poetic catchphrases and even coining the term “Prepare for the Blitz-Aster Disaster!” He is secretly a romantic at heart.

Aster is rarely seen without his sister Blitz. He is the brain to her brawn. Though he’s the more level-headed twin, Blitz’s dominant personality tends to direct their fighting strategies. He does not know how to be independent, which can be used against him.

Aster is capable of harnessing the power of the Chaos Emeralds to perform Chaos Control. Without the need for Chaos Emeralds, Aster shows early signs of telekinetic and telepathic abilities. He hasn’t mastered many techniques yet, but with some proper training it’s possible he could become a force to be reckoned with. If only Blitz would shut up for 5 minutes so he could concentrate!

Aster enjoys challenging mind games, like chess. 

-

BLITZ

Birthday: 4/8 (5th born)

Age: 15

Powers: Energy Blasts (“Chaos Spear”)

Weaknesses: Codependency, Impulsivity

Dream Voice Actor: Jessica DiCicco [x] [x] OR Chloë Grace Moretz [x]

Theme Song: “God Complex (Mojo)” - poutyface

Blitz is the second born in the second litter of Aurora and Shadow. Blitz is brash and forward but can be a little spacey. She has a short attention span and is easily bored. She considers fighting as a form of playing. She is very proud of herself and her heritage and isn’t afraid to namedrop to get her way. 

Blitz is rarely seen without her brother Aster. She is the brawn to his brain. Blitz’s dominant personality tends to direct their fighting strategies despite her brother’s concerns. She is very theatrical and enjoys making a huge spectacle out of her battles, including saying poetic catchphrases and even coining the term “Prepare for the Blitz-Aster Disaster!” She is very codependent and hates doing anything without Aster.

Blitz is capable of harnessing the power of the Chaos Emeralds to perform Chaos Control. Without the need for Chaos Emeralds, Blitz has the natural ability to perform Chaos Spear which can dagger her enemies with energy.

Blitz loves fashion and is a huge trendsetter. She would love to be a fashion designer if world domination doesn’t work out (She’s just kidding – relax already!)

-

Cinder

Birthday: 2/18 (6th born)

Age: 14

Powers: Combustion, Stellar Tantrum

Weaknesses: Migraines, Short Temper

Dream Voice Actor: Michael Daingerfield [x] [x]

Theme Song: “Tantrum” - Ashnikko

Cinder is the first born in the third litter of Aurora and Shadow. He has a very short temper and is incredibly impatient. He is the most like his father in that he is not very talkative and would rather be left alone than socialize with others. His outbursts of rage can often be used to his enemies’ advantage by being misdirected to his siblings and teammates. He is also terrified of himself, which makes him constantly on edge. 

Cinder is NOT capable of using Chaos Emeralds and instead has to rely on his natural abilities. Cinder has combustion powers, but unlike his sister Piper, his powers are based solely on his emotions so he has a very hard time commanding the direction and radius of his blasts. Piper was tasked with training Cinder to better manage his combustion powers, but the two tend to get frustrated with each other since control comes so naturally to Piper and it’s incredibly foreign to Cinder. When Cinder goes into a blinding rage, his fur and eyes change color and sparks of energy will fire off randomly around him. When in this form, he can perform a move called “Stellar Tantrum.” This move is highly destructive and will incinerate any and all objects nearby. He has absolutely no control over this power once it’s unleashed.

As a child, Cinder was more outgoing but still prone to crying outbursts. However, during one particular fight with his sister Diamond, he accidentally unleashed a Stellar Tantrum and severely burned her. Luckily Boon was able to use his healing powers to reverse it, but Cinder has never forgiven himself and has never been the same ever since. Cinder requested a special Inhibitor necklace be made to help dampen his powers, but it’s not very effective. It works more as a placebo than anything else. He keeps everyone at a distance whenever possible and thinks there’s something evil in him, despite his parents’ reassurances. 

Cinder doesn’t like to discuss his hobbies, but he actually loves baking and reading books.

DIAMOND

Birthday: 2/18 (7th Born)

Age: 14

Role: Tank

Powers: Brute Strength

Weaknesses: Poor eyesight, Light sensitivity

Dream Voice Actor: Kimberly Brooks [x] [x] [x]

Theme Song: “Cleopatra” - Nova Twins

Diamond is the second born in the third litter of Aurora and Shadow. She has a sweet disposition and is very polite, even to her opponents. However, she can be a smart ass at times and is quick to make jokes. She is highly dedicated to physical training but outside of the gym she’s very easy-going. Diamond was born with Oculocutaneous albinism. Due to her albinism and nystagmus, she is sensitive to light and has very poor eyesight. As a baby and toddler, Diamond mostly clung to Aurora whenever outdoors as she could bend the light around Diamond and protect her from UV rays. As Diamond got older and grew more independent, Tails’ Workshop crafted a special brooch that acts as a light shield when activated. Diamond never leaves home without it.

Diamond is NOT capable of using Chaos Emeralds and instead has to rely on her natural abilities. She has incredible strength and is physically the strongest of all her relatives. 

As a child, she and her brother Cinder got into a fight where he accidentally unleashed a Stellar Tantrum and severely burned her. Luckily Boon was able to use his healing powers to reverse it. She has completely forgiven Cinder and has never held it against him, but he continues to be distant with her to this day.

She enjoys training in the Shadora Home Gym to better perfect her fighting skills and she is almost always found sporting earbuds so she can listen to her favorite punk rock and metal bands.

-

Boon

Birthday: 2/18 (8th Born)

Age: 14

Role: Support

Powers: Healing, Mood-Boosting

Weaknesses: People-pleasing

Dream Voice Actor: Ben Schwartz [x] ← Please watch this whole interview, it will leave you grinning ear-to-ear the whole way through

Theme Song: “Smile” - Dami Im

Boon is the third born in the third litter of Aurora and Shadow. Boon is the embodiment of a ray of sunshine and has 10000% charisma. He genuinely loves everyone he meets and enjoys putting smiles on people’s faces. Boon is very silly and has a very childish sense of humor. He also has a lot of energy and has a habit of rambling without realizing it.

Boon is NOT capable of using Chaos Emeralds and instead has to rely on his natural abilities. He has incredible healing abilities and can heal the wounded, but it takes a lot of energy from him so can only do so much at a time. He cannot revive the dead. Boon also has a “mood-boosting” ability, where he can positively affect the emotions of others. This can only be done by making direct contact with someone and the effect only lasts temporarily. Boon’s powers positively affected Aurora’s pregnancy, making her third litter the easiest and stress free of all her pregnancies (Thank you, Boon!)

Boon wears special rocket boots so he can quickly fly to anyone in battle who needs assistance. His boots have a button on the heel to activate them, and he likes to click his heels together to turn them on. Though he never complains about his duties, Aurora often worries about Boon’s need to please others and reminds him that he can’t help others if he doesn’t help himself. Aurora and Boon are the most alike of all her children as both are prone to singing outbursts, goofy jokes and harmless pranks to make people laugh.

All Shadora kids are mortal and did not inherit Shadow’s immortality. However, they do heal faster than the average Mobian.

Want to get more of a feel for the Shadora kids? I've made a Spotify playlist dedicate to their theme songs, songs that make me think of them, or general music they would listen to. You can listen to it here, but be warned it contains explicit songs.

A NOTE ABOUT SHADOW’S “AGE”

Shadow is immortal so therefore he doesn’t age. However it’s been long debated in my Shadora stories whether or not he will give up his immortality to live a normal life with his family. I have him in these drawings as still being immortal, especially because I like the angst and challenges that comes with (ex: how are your rebellious teenagers supposed to respect you when they are seemingly “older” than you?) but I haven’t actually decided when he will decide to be mortal. 

BUT if you ever draw me fanart or write me fanfics and you want to have become mortal at an earlier point in his life I’m totally cool with that! I’m flexible.

Fankids Character Charts [1/3]

The kids!! The first 7 out of all the kids getting charts!!! They're going to be divided in three groups because they're too many kiddos now lol.

More detailed info under the cut!

Emmie: Sonadow kid, the one who got my fankid train started! Also, the first Tube Baby! (Here's three posts about it: One, two, three).

Her full name is Emily (meaning "rival"), however, everyone just calls her Emmie (out of universe explanation + in universe explanation).

She has Black Arms DNA, but it's uncertain the lenghts it's effects have on her. They know she had green blood (first shown here) and has access to the Hivemind, which as a baby she used to communicate with Shadow (first shown here), but as she grew older she stopped using it, and now finds it harder to access it.

She, of course, also has Chaos Energy. She has super speed and can perform Chaos Control (here) and turn Super (first shown here), but her super form is highly unstable and quickly becomes similar to Sonic's "Super Fleetway" form (here).

Emmie uses her trusty yoyo to fight (here), complementing her powers and ability in a way to extend the reach of her attacks, rope in her enemies, etc.

Sparks: The oldest of my Blazamy kids, and first Belly Baby in the lineup (here's context).

Sparks has fire powers, similar to Blaze's, though they find them a bit harder to control. They get Blaze, Knuckles and Espio's help to learn to use said powers, since they require a lot of training. Also, again, quite like Blaze, they can turn into Burning Sparks (here), but this form drains their energy pretty fast.

Since Blaze is a princess, Amy, Sparks and Tulip do acquire royalty related tiltes, however, they're very informal and don't hold that much power due to Blaze not wanting them to have any responsability simply because they're related to her. Despite this, Sparks does end up becoming ruler of the Sol Dimension later in the timeline, but by their own volution.

They use a fire sword to fight (here). It would be a simple sword, but they infuse it with their powers for it to become this flaming version of the weapon.

Lash: The oldest of my Scourgiona kids and your local surprise baby representation.

Her main ability is acrobatics, and she has some sort of super speed but it's quite weak compared to Emmie's.

She has both mommy and daddy issues, and spends most of her time at Aim's house, although she grew up with Mareep, Glamour and Stumble. She has two older siblings, and at first she didn't have much of a relationship with them, since they're younger than her and much closer to each other, but eventually Lash steps in and tries to be a part of her siblings' life like their parents should've been.

She starts as more of a "villain", taking the role of your local mean girl next to Mareep and the others, and has a bit of friction with the rest of the kids, but as she starts hanging out more with Aim and Spades, she begins to let that attitude go and tries to be better, eventually joining the Restoration.

Aim: Whispangle kid, selectively mute, and a Belly Baby.

He does archery, which is their main fighting technique, however, during battle, they also use their tail to move around faster and will occasionally team up with Whisper's wisps.

He does not speak, at all, but the others just seem to understand him without him even needing sign language or anything. Also finally giving it a name rather than just saying 'he doesn't speak', they're selectively mute! So yay for it finally having a name!

Bria: Sonina (Sonia x Mina) Belly Baby! Making them Emmie's younger cousin.

They don't fight much, rather serving to give hope and high spirits to those around her! But of course, living in the universe they live in, they know martial arts just in case it's needed, and as self defense.

Even though Bria's hard of hearing, his biggest passion is music. She plays piano and guitar, piano being his main instrument.

Tulip: The youngest of my Blazamy siblings, also a Belly Baby (in universe explanation here).

He hasn't shown any special ability yet, which is something that bothers him. Because of this, he isn't allowed to be around the other kids when there's danger, but he's very sneaky and often gets things to work in his favor anyway (in some strange way, he always knows what to do to get what's best for his interests, hm...)

He has an interest in tarot cards, like Amy, and in these sorts of magic related topics.

Destiny: One and only Code Baby! And Sallicole kid. She's an AI similar to Nicole, but with more advanced and sophisticated technology.

Being an AI, she can easily hack into robots and computers, which helps during battle.

They usually take the leader role very naturally, immediately making a plan on the spot and guiding the rest of the group thanks to her rational thinking nature. However, she's quite shy which makes things a bit difficult for her, her confident side mainly showing when assuming the role of the leader, or when fighting for things they're passionate about.

Destiny is president and leader or a smaller section of the Restoration, which is the training and formation for teenagers. This is where she shines her brightest, leading this group on missions and making their plans of action, as well as organizing their training schedule.

[harbinger-of-chaossss]

What I think your favourite sonic character says about you!

Sonic- you need therapy

Tails- Your an older sibling who feels 6 years old in their 20’s

Knuckles- you complain that nobody appreciates him enough. And you’d be correct.

Amy- you could give me a 3 hour video essay on an oddly specific historical subject and you’d have my full attention

Cream- you say you don’t like kids but then you cry every time you see a kid in fiction because you’re scared that anything or everything bad will happen. (the embodiment of that “if anything happens to them I’ll kill everyone in this room and then myself” meme)

Big the cat- you scare me in a way that shouldn’t even exist

Shadow- You are so right (please kiss me on the mouth)

Rouge- you ether like her way to much. Or you like her way to much.

Omega- haha. Bomb.

Silver- You believe you’d be able to win a fight against anyone who would make fun of your friends, but would cry if you had to make plans over the phone.

Blaze- your handwriting and craftsmanship with making art and stories always comes to amaze me. Like you know when you join a fandom and see the most breathtaking fic or art. Like how is it not in a museum, or a best selling novel, that’s how I feel about your art/writing.

Metal- ok you’re a NERD nerd. Like you’ve been a fan of sonic since you were 8, you played a lot of the games, you own at least a couple comics and figures. This franchise is ingrained in your BLOOD.

Eggman- wow that’s really interes- *pepper-sprays you in the eyes*

Charmy- you were either the really annoying kid and proud, or stuck using millennial/ tumblr slang 24/7, Or both.

Espio- what’s it like only shipping rear pairs

Vector- your to swag to exist. Like there are at least 50 people you’ve had minor interactions with in real life who now have that interaction in their long term memory just because of how cool you were. What are you even doing here man? Go outside!

[the-starlight-project]

So I got a list of theories, I am sorry if this is too long to answer, but I had to share my thoughts with you guys.

Shamdow is probably the least aware of everything going on. He seems genuinely confused and concerned about Sonic/Nicky, even when Sonic/Nicky is "new."

Shillver (thanks to whoever came up with this name) knows the most. After all, why would you randomly be on a rooftop standing in the rain and hiding behind a door you got smacked with? Surprised there was no audible sound of a man swearing upon being smacked by a METAL DOOR.

Both of Tails actors are siblings. It was common for some characters to be played by siblings due to similarities with them at young ages. Though based on the photo and the fact these follow the games, these two most likely acted in the Sonic Generations season of this show.

Knuckle's actor is probably the one who constantly needs to keep people on track, and he is probably the one who has the angry writing on that board. I also feel like he is the one who actually takes care of Cheese since chaos are associated with the Master Emerald. It would make sense for Knuckle's actor to still have a slight connection to it, even if he doesn't in real life.

Cassy is for sure Rouge. Shadow and Rouge were both introduced in the same game, so it would make sense for both to be introduced the same season. I am going to guess she is also Shamdow's roommate, mainly because it seems like the two would live together before they get into acting.

Cream's actor is probably the least seen, but most liked of the cast. She definitely seems like she embodies Cream herself, whether she is acting or not.

Blaze's actor might know part of what is going on, but not fully. Blaze and Silver do have a somewhat close relation in the game they appeared in, and afterwards it was more of Deja Vu due to weird Sonic Game timeline stuff, so Blaze's actor may know something because of Shillver.

Amy's actor has a scar on her cheeks. I have a feeling she accidentally got it on set, since her character does weird a hammer, and I am sure some balance issues may happen time to time, resulting in a few falls.

Eggman's actor is probably the sweetest man alive, or the most evil man you'll ever meet. Either way, he appeared in the first few pages and is for sure going to be seen later.

Sonic/Nicky isn't "new" as the studio suggests, they just use the "new" story to make everyone believe he was replaced. I am going to guess that if Sonic/Nicky has been there the entire time since the shows creation, the studio had some really clever ways to hide stuff. Especially if Sonic/Nicky is still a teenager after 30+ years.

Lastly, if Sonic Generations is a season, then who was the Classic Sonic actor? Does Sonic/Nicky have any siblings and doesn't know/realize it, or is it just some random blue hedgehog actor that the studio randomly found and knew would make for a believeable younger Sonic?

I gotta say, we're both so sad you're anonymous right now - this was an awesome string of theories and we wanted to give you props!

I can't answer all of them in depth, as you probably guessed, but I'll go ahead and confirm what I can right now!

Shamdow is definitely the least aware, and Shillver (as of right now) is the most aware of the characters that have been introduced.

I can't even make a snarky comment on this or anything, you just hit ALL of the Tails portion of this theory on the head. They are indeed siblings, and both did participate in the Generations season!

Knuckles' actor was definitely the one writing on the board, but I can't tell you anything else about him for now... except for the fact that he doesn't take care of Cheese LMAO

Cassy is definitely Rouge. They aren't roommates, but they were technically new friends when they were introduced. They met during the casting for SA2.

Cream is seen the least for a reason.

Blaze's actor doesn't really know what's going on, but I'd say they're suspicious. Also, they're not too close with Shillver, but they're friends enough.

All of the section about Amy's actor is correct! She did get that little scar on set, during the filming of Sonic CD! I'm sure you can guess where.

Eggman's actor(s) is definitely ... a man. He's nice! He's nice.

The studio definitely has some really clever (and morally dubious) ways of hiding things. There have been several occasions where more extreme measures were needed, though.

Classic Sonic definitely has an actor! He's his own entity, has his own life (and is connected to Amy's actor in his own ways). They aren't siblings or anything (though that's not to say that Sonic doesn't have any).

[mama-qwerty]

Okay, so I read this post, and for the most part kinda agree with the frustrating way IDW seems to be shoving Amy into the grouping by excluding Knuckles. Trying to make her into some girlboss who is on top of everything and doing that "she worries herself sick because she cares so much about everyone else" thing that a lot of media does with female characters.

And yes, I get it, Amy's character IS that she cares. It's who she is. And I like that they're pulling her back from the "girl who chases after Sonic" thing that Sega seemed to define her as for the longest time. Make her a more formidable member of the group, someone who can take care of herself and contribute. By all means, give her a little attitude that shows she can be just as dangerous as the others.

But they don't have to shove Knuckles to the side to do so.

Amy's always been strong. But the scene with Silver and the giant hammer seemed a little too strong. Teamwork, anyone?

The whole "dissolved the resistance on a whim" thing is repetitive and annoying, but I could see her point. She's a little bitter that all this was dropped on her head without warning. She stepped up because someone had to.

But I also see this from Knuckles' pov. He's a very straightforward guy. The way he sees things is PROBLEM->SOLUTION->RETURN TO NORMAL. That's the way he's lived his life.

BUT

That being said, I don't like how IDW is making Knuckles out to be Shrek, always wanting people off his island asap. In this instance, the Zombot thing had just finished, and he's already kicking everyone off?

I get that he's being gruff and that's part of his "Knuckles charm" but it could also come off as being really 2 dimensional into his character. "Oh, he's grumpy and tells people to get off his island." He's also very loyal to his friends, and wants to make sure innocent people are not harmed. Kicking everyone off like 5 minutes after they recovered from being changed into zombots is cold, even for a 'grumpy' character like him.

But okay, let's psychoanalyze him for a moment, based on these panels.

Amy cranks about Knux dissolving the resistance, and Knuckles responds with essentially "The war was over, we didn't need a resistance anymore". Which, he's right. They don't need a resistance if there's no threat to resist. What she was doing is recovery and restoration. That's not his thing. That's a different focus, and not something he's good at.

The threat was eliminated, so he saw the job as done. HIS job was done.

His next lines, about her helping everyone everywhere, could be seen as him being frustrated that she'd always taking the care of others onto her own shoulders. Maybe he sees her as too kind-hearted, and worries it'll come back to hurt her in the end. He doesn't want Amy to be hurt, but he can't come out and say that. So he assumes his gruff demeanor once again, to fall back to the "get off my island" schtick.

Look at his expression. He doesn't look angry. He looks, annoyed maybe? Resigned that he KNOWS she's gonna run herself ragged in trying to help everyone, but there's not a damn thing he can do to stop her.

Now, consider that this little exchange took place when a lot of other people were around, and he was already feeling hot because Sonic brought not only trouble to Angel Island, but a contagious 'disease' that could have compromised everything.

By contrast, look at this back-and-forth:

They're both much more relaxed, and capable of addressing the elephant in the room without their individual shields up in front of others. She pokes at him about it, and he looks honestly a little guilty for leaving her a mess to clean up. And he apologized.

I do love their little interactions, they're very sibling coded and I'm all here for it.

I don't know where I was going with this. 😆 I guess I share in the frustration that Knuckles seems to be shoved to the side in favor of giving other characters his traits and abilities (Shadow has taken over a lot of Knuckles' abilities when it comes to sensing chaos emeralds, it seems), and it's very frustrating how there is so much potential in his story, yet all we see is him in relation to Angel Island or the Master Emerald. Yes, those are important to him, but they're not ALL there is to him.

[the-sinful-voice-witch]

SONAMY ongoing evolution

I've been playing Sonic frontiers and I watched Sonic prime and I read the IDW comics... Omg where's do I start???

Sonic frontiers is just a work of art in general, but the sonamy inside is just beautifully portrayed, I can say that Ian Flynn totally ships them 😌😌. I'm just so utterly happy how things had changed even if it took so many years

Sonic changed a lot his perception of Amy! 🥲🥲🥲 Also the detail of the umbrella line, remember that sonic was created in Japan, say fellow anime fans what does usually means when two characters share an umbrella? What does it mean when students in Japan draw an umbrella in the blackboard with two names written under it? It is clear that Ian Flynn totally knows the meaning and the MUSIC! Seriously those scenarios with Amy and that music felt like it came right out of a shojo anime😖😖😖💗💗

But also the feels... THE FUCKING FEELS!! The way Amy is kind of too calm with her situation but Sonic is just so worried and you could tell how worried he was even if he tried to play it cool... His expressions girl... Look at him with his cute ears dropped 🥲🥲🥲 Guys this game fed us good stuff... We shippers finally got what we had always wanted.

Next topic: Sonic Prime.

So I'm a bit conflicted, cause i only liked one of Amy's different designs and that was Thorn Rose, I'm obsessed with her hair but dude Rusty Rose? That could have been better... Also why Rusty Rose and not Metal Rose? Cyborg Rose? Badnik Rose? Mecha Rose? Robot Rose? Rusty sounds a bit degrading... It is because she was made like that by the Egg council? Pff also her robot appearance is just so ugly! What with that eye? But I love the dark concept and I love her SASS 🤣🤣🤣🤣Anyway my problem with Rusty Amy and Sonic is that it feels like the situation is not treated nearly as serious as Nine situation and boy ok you are a hurt loner with bully victim issues but Amy is basically dead, like there's no flesh or organs in her, she literally has a Birdy as a source of life and what is the outcome of that? Is there another outcome different from Gamma's fate in sonic adventure? Because the second Amy gets back her emotions she will want to release the bird... But more importantly... I can't wait to see Shadow react to her... This is the girl that reminded him of Maria, i really shouldn't but I really have high expectations for what kind of interaction will they have, we really need to see Shadow and Amy interact more let's be honest. As for the other Roses, there's no much to say about Black Rose but with Thorn we got good stuff too:

But I have to say one thing... Ok I know Amy is a strong power character but... It's a bit ridiculous that she could fight off characters like Rouge and Knuckles THAT EASY is just...🙃🙃🙃 Well i loved the part when he tries to reason with her all like: you liked me... A bit? Remember? And she is just so irritated and done with him already 🤣🤣🤣 but then... We also got this:

Actually touch her cheek you COWARD!!😤😤 Also when he was about to smash her and but stopped because he has a flashback of his Amy 😭😭😭, it's curious that Thorn Rose seems to be more impactful in Sonic than Rusty Rose which is ok but is odd plot speaking, after all Rusty is the one in the worst condition and is the one hunting him down, I'll just wait for next season and see what happens

And last but not the least I Shall say something about THIS!!

This illustration hit me right in the kokoro, date with hands holding and Sakura petals... is pure shojo manga energy!! I'm so blessed 😭😭💗💗

And of course the important reminder that Amy is a POWER CHARACTER and that's why she and knuckles make a good POWER SIBLINGS team as I stated in their own post about them... And dear Silver fucking gave her a COLOSSAL hammer 😂😂😂do not mess with the pink hedgehog buddy, and of course Sonic knows exactly how awesome she is as it should be, seriously she is really getting better and better, i really hope we'll see her in the next movie

[whymustyouhurtmeinthisway]

Sonic IDW 67 was pretty good, I liked it a lot. No Surgeamy hints unfortunately, and the imposter siblings getting hired by Clutch instead of being a third party's kinda lame (though I'm betting there's a good chance they'll end up rebelling against him). Something I did like a lot was Surge's attitude throughout the whole thing:

Despite seeming like she'd be a terrible actor, she sells it wonderfully by not trying to avoid suspicion. She knows Sonic and co. will be suspicious of her no matter what, so trying to act all buddy-buddy with them would probably make them way more confrontational about her and Kit's intentions. The attitude she instead chooses is less "I've had a change of heart, I want to be a hero and change the world now" and more "Yeah living in Starline's old shack blew chunks and we knew you suckers were dumb enough to let assholes like us live here if we asked, so here we are" which is much more believable (and for good reason, as that's basically the truth of their situation give or take a couple important details). Throughout the entire tour she's constantly pestering Sonic about how letting them in was a bad idea, saying stuff like "Man you've really built up a nice place. It'd be a shame if someone burned it down". When he brings up introducing Surge and Kit to Whisper and the rest of the Diamond Cutters and Amy says that might not be the best idea, Surge's response is basically "What? No, I'm sure Sonic knows exactly what he's doing, this'll go fiiiiiiiine. C'mon big shot, let's see you try to sell them on me, this'll be fun."

Her scene with Whisper was especially interesting, I loved it. The last interaction Surge had with Whisper was beating the shit out of her and kidnapping all her wisps to use as living batteries, so she knew Whisper'd be the most distrustful of anyone there (further increased by the fact that she's much less forgiving than all the other resistance members in the first place). Surge handled the seemingly impossible task of getting Whisper to even slightly trust her the best way possible: make no attempt to do that at all, and in fact tell her she shouldn't. Upon hearing Whisper's flat out refusal to accept Surge and Kit's redemption, Surge bursts out laughing, hands her her wispon, and goes something like "Finally! You're the first one to show a little sense around here! The rest of these schmucks would trust a bear trap if it looked sorry enough for snapping off the first leg, but I can tell you wanna kill me right here and right now. I like you. Here's your gun, if I stay here you could aim it at the back of my head as long as you want. I don't blame you. I encourage you." I love this bit of writing, and it's a genuinely brilliant strategy from Surge, going "You're a lot smarter than everyone else here for wanting to kill me, if you let me live in your base I'll be really easy to kill if you want to." is probably one of the few ways on earth to convince someone who wants you dead to let you live very near them. Also, through flattering her on her superior sense of reason, Surge subtly makes Whisper like/trust her just a tiny bit more, and I feel like she could slowly but surely build onto that more and more until she eventually ends up winning Whisper over. I'm sure her and Kit won't be "undercover" for very long but if they were really in it for the long haul I could totally see that happen. Maybe she inherited Sonic's natural ability to make friends with even one's worst enemies, except she goes about it in a much more fucked up way.

Finally, I really liked the one moment of hesitation Surge has upon hearing that the Resistance wouldn't give her and Kit a single order if they didn't want them to. Though she fully came with the intention of maliciously taking advantage of Sonic and the rest of the Resistance's kindness, she hesitates upon hearing how far that kindness goes. In Surge and Kit's eyes, there hasn't been a single person in their life who doesn't see them as

A: Dangerous targets to kill, or

B: Powerful tools they can use to use to their advantage.

Hell, they know that even the partnership they're in at that very moment with Clutch is an example of B and they still accepted it. But then, for the first time in their life, they're offered a home of their own with a solid roof and good food, rehabilitation and reintroduction to the rest of society, an actual normal life for the first time they can remember, all of it for nothing in return on their part. Amy tells them the Resistance helps everyone in need out of the kindness of their hearts and (though they always appreciate more volunteers) not a single person is required to anything to repay their help, it's all free. For a brief moment you can see Surge drop the shithead mannerisms and genuinely consider the proposition. Her internal monologue isn't shared with the audience, but I imagine it must be very conflicted. She then regains her composure and moves on with the tour as before, but I imagine that moment's gonna affect her heavily in the issues to come, and I'm very excited to see how that plays out.

Anyways, good issue all around, can't wait to read the next one.

“and while he loves the affection so so much ALL of them doing it in his love language is suspicious. but he doesn't want to say anything because he doesn't want them to stop but he also doesn't want them to think they have to do that,,,”

YOURE A GENIUS

Imagine tails feeling guilty and like they’re forcing themself to do it because he accidentally let it slip that he wanted them too. And because sonic, shadow and knuckles are quite touch avoidant and even Amy who is usually quite affection is more about words of affection rather than touch. So whenever they start to do it tails starts to pull away or makes up an excuse to leave.

And it devastates tails because he’s been longing for this for so long but he feels guilty because he feels like they’re making themselves uncomfortable just to make him happy

Of course all four of them are probably quick to shut it down

YEAHHH YEAH YEAH YEAH

he starts keeping an eye out for them and when they start giving cues they're gonna nuzzle him he suddenly has to go build a bomb for the next fight or something..

so the pincushions end up cornering him one day and it's just a big nuzzle pile. tails has no choice but to get nuzzled by his big siblings, they don't care how many guns he needs to build

they're a little worried that they're being too pushy and so tails timidly explains why he's been avoiding them,, it's not because the sudden touching is overwhelming-well it is overwhelming, but in the best way possible-it's because he feels bad. like, they're doing something they don't want to just to make him happy

but they DO want to. they want to show this kid they love him so so so much no matter how they have to. and if that gives them an excuse to snuggle their softest brother then that's just a bonus

[sevenrenny]

Hi! I hope you’re having a swell day/night. Random question. If you could write more Cream and Tails interactions, how would you personally write their dynamic?

Hello!

I suppose it depends on whether or not I intend to write them as a ship or not. (I'd say I see it as a friendship that leans more toward an early first-crush.) I first see who they are as individuals before I go into how they interact. They both share personality traits like being kind and polite and having this sense of need to be helpful. I write Cream as more extroverted while I write Tails as more of an ambivert, so I do see him being more blushy and stuttery about Cream being sweet with him. The interactions between each other are more sweet and wholesome.

I thing I had to note when writing them is how Cream is more into nature (liking flowers and Chao) while Tails is more of an engineer. (And I sometimes forget one is a rabbit and the other is a fox lol.) Those things are sort of opposites, but Tails and Cream are friendly and polite and sweet-natured so they just chill with each other either in pretty meadows or in Tails' workshop or just having tea. I'd say Cream in particular would be a hugger with how open she is. And Tails is a smart cookie; he'd recognize when she'd need a hug.

In terms of battle, Tails is more calculated and plans things over, but because he was raised by Sonic, he can be reckless when actually going forth with his tactics or when his plans don't go accordingly and he needs to come up with a plan B within seconds. Cream, while firm in her stance to help her friends, can be naïve and end up biting off more than she can chew when impulsively jumping into situations to help others.

They're also both flying types who happen to occupy the status of sidekick/little sibling relationship to Sonic and Amy, which I think is a cute accidental detail I like to exploit lol Both Tails and Cream feel like they could do so much more to help others and want to prove themselves despite already being well-respected amongst their friend group. This is an insecurity they share. I'd say Tails knows of Cream's insecurity because she's open about it, and he feels bad that she feels that way because he's seen how great she is. From Cream's point of view, she doesn't know this is an insecurity Tails has, for a few reasons:

1-He hides it for the most part until it boils over in some cases, and,

2-Cream sees him as someone smart and strong and amazing, so it doesn't cross her mind that Tails might not see himself that way.

At least, that's how I personally see it as they are now. The dynamic might change as they get older (I know Sonic and Amy's did over the years.) For now, this is just how I enjoy writing them!

[ratrrriot]

Hey just wanted to say that I think your style is really unique I don't know how to describe it, but the way you draw looks fun and free. I like you how there whole muzzle is colored they look so nice, maybe cause I think too hard when I draw characters or anything really and I fall off from art and it's just refreshing to see a unquie style for Sonic your art became one of my comforts here. I started following after that comic with Sonic and Amy in the Rain and I just enjoy anything you post. Your ark siblings comic takes the cake though, hit me in my feels everytime.👌

Anyways I appreciate what you do and I hope you are having a great day!

AAAA Thank you so,so much for enjoying my work!! i really appreciate it!! i hope you have a great day too!! 💙🖤💙🖤💙

Into, Across and Beyond! Scripting: To Be or NOT to Be...?

PREVIOUS POST

In Many More Heroes, after OMT!Tails and Pana managed to bait LM!Sonic into the Quill Society meeting room, he was quickly detained by one of Zonic's rings.

Zonic: Hold it there, LM.

EV!Sonic: What's the worry?

OMT!Tails: I found this stuff in LM!Sonic's dorm you might wanna look at.

OMT!Tails passed him the files.

EV!Sonic: Way to go, little dude!

Milly: So with this, we need an explanation as to what LM's been hiding from us.

Zonic inserted the claimed disc into E-21 while LM!Sonic simply looked on.

Zonic: Right. To begin with, E-21, explain the thing.

E-21: What thing?

Zonic: What do you mean what-?! The universal-explainy thing!

E-21: Ah, right!

She activated a hologram.

(Keep in mind that this isn't all the people in the room at the time.)

The panels under the meeting room began to activate as a circle formed around them.

OMT!Tails: What is this?

Zonic: This... is everything.

The circle lit up the meeting room to show many different video clips.

OMT!Tails: Is it okay if you specify further?

Zonic: Right, sorry. The molecule-like connectors with dots around? This is all of us. All of our lives woven together, in a wonderful link to life and destiny.

OMT!Tails (in awe): The SEGAVerse...

Zonic: "SEGAVerse"? Huh, that's... not its name. It's called the Special-Extravagant-Galactic-spAce Vast Multiverse.

Everyone looked at him in confusion about it.

Zonic: ...which honestly isn't the best name I thought up, honestly.

Sunky and Tlels took notice of the nodes on the hologram between the links.

Tlels: And those nodes where those lines converge?

LM!Sonic: They're typical canon points. Chapters that are part of a hero's story quite a lot of times. Some good...

Holograms are shown of SoH!Sonic getting his super speed, the Sonic 2 opening cutscene from Sonic Origins, and SatAM Sonic and Sally sharing a kiss.

LM!Sonic: ...some bad...

Some more holograms are shown of Scorched fighting Prowler, which concerns Milly, frustrates Sunky and Tlels and confuses Blitz!Tails, a Sonic struggling to find air in Labyrinth Zone, and Archie Mina taking the bullet for her Sonic and Sally. Milly is quick to realise the implications of the third one.

Milly: ...What if I can't make it work...? EV!Sonic: Hey, I'm sure you still can.

Zonic: And some... *sigh* REALLY bad...

Maria Robotnik's death from Project: Shadow is shown on a seventh hologram, to the horror of Movie Shadow. LM!Sonic gestured over to an eighth hologram that came in front of him as EV!Sonic kept an eye on him, ensuring he wasn't going to hide THAT one especially.

LM!Sonic: This one, Event ASM-91? A close companion to a hero dies trying to stop a personal villain of that hero.

The hologram showed footage of a younger Movie Sonic trying to go back for Longclaw, then ART sacrificing himself for Underground Sonic and his siblings to escape (which saddened UG!Sonic), and finally Mobiverse Sonic giving himself up to save Antho from Mammoth Mogul.

OMT!Tails: Did that happen to several of you guys, too...?

Sarah Henderson: In all honesty? Yeah...

D-Sides Mighty: And... what of it?

LM!Sonic: These are how the story's supposed to go.

Other holograms fly around them depicting other "canon events"; Deja vu about the Soleanna events, Shadow sacrificing his life for Sonic, and a couple of other cases.

LM!Sonic: I know EV doesn't believe what I'm saying, but canon events are the connections that bind our lives together. Yet, those connections can end up broken. It's why anomalies are so dangerous...

A hologram flashing back to OMT!Tails saving the little girl, BK!Sonic helping stop a train bound to crash, and BK!Amy rescuing Merlina from an ambush a few hours earlier.

LM!Sonic: Merlina's death was MEANT to be a canon event, and you, Tails, weren't supposed to be there or give BK time to save her! That's why Mina tried to stop you.

A flashback to the three-way rescue sequence is shown, with OMT!Mina grabbing OMT!Tails's arm doing the rush to save the kid.

Past OMT!Mina: Tails!

OMT!Tails: You what? I... I thought you were trying to save me, Mina.

OMT!Mina: I was, Tails, I... I was doing both.

LM!Sonic: And now, Prower, because you changed the story, BK!Amy's universe will most likely unravel! If we're lucky, we can stop it from happening, but we haven't always been lucky.

OMT!Tails: Hey, that wasn't me! That was Crimtake!

EV!Sonic: Yeah, like I just told you!

LM!Sonic: It's what happens when you break the canon!

EV!Sonic: Oh, boy... Here we go...

OMT!Tails: How would you know that?!

LM!Sonic: ...Because I broke it once myself, after that scumbag Eggman murdered two of my friends. I found another world where I was actually happy. At least, another variant of me was. And that version of myself was killed by Mephiles, so I replaced him.

Images are shown of LM!Sonic living a happier life in an alternate dimension, his past smile disappearing to his present-day scowl.

LM!Sonic: I thought it was harmless... but I was completely wrong.

Further images show that dimension collapsing, akin to Sonic '06's End of the World, several members of the Quill Society trying and failing to save others. LM!Sonic was running through the streets of Soleanna, Elise in his arms.

Elise: S-Sonic! Get me to the Aquatic Base! You need to put this right!

She was dying fast in LM!Sonic's arms as he raced there at top-speed.

LM!Sonic: Elise, CR? Isn't that right?

CR!Sonic: Y-Yeah...

The destruction played out in full, holographic shards flying past OMT!Tails in the aftermath.

LM!Sonic: You break enough canon, you keep doing the wrong thing... and we could end up losing it all.

The central hologram faded away as EV!Sonic and Tekno turned back.

Tekno: Look, is it really down to you breaching that world's intentions? Because it could've been another force at play!

Zonic: Honestly, I agree. Some other creep might've caused that mess just to watch you suffer.

SS!Amy: Mhm. It's like trying to claim me and my friends were "destined" to die when Finitevus erased our old home!

During this, OMT!Tails remembered from earlier.

OMT!Tails: ...Crimtake's planned target...

Crimtake: I’m going to claim what’s left of your ‘family’, Prower. Try and stop me if you can, ‘hero’!

OMT!Tails: And if Crimtake claims Cream... When does this happen?

LM!Sonic remained silent.

OMT!Tails (angered): I said WHEN DOES THIS HAPPEN?!

LM!Sonic: In 12 hours, while she's asleep.

E-21: It's... what LM!Sonic's data says.

LM!Sonic: Look, I'm sorry, kid.

OMT!Tails: I need to get moving!

SS!Amy: Yeah! I'm coming with you!

LM!Sonic: I can't let you do that, Tails. Not now.

OMT!Tails: Then what am I supposed to do?! Just let my only remaining family DIE?!

LM!Sonic just nodded as OMT!Tails turned to OMT!Mina.

OMT!Tails: What about your band? They were close to you, right?

OMT!Mina: Yeah...

OMT!Tails: And you're not gonna do anything if they end up in danger?! Okay, what about Uncle Chuck?

He looked over to CR!Sonic, who looked back wordlessly.

OMT!Tails: Would that have been okay if you knew, and you just... let a villain murder your family?!

CR!Sonic: If not for Chuck, a good handful of us wouldn't even be here, Tails.

He showed some more holograms of big portrayals of Chuck in media, the most prominent being in the aftermath of XE!Sonic leaving XE!Jules for dead.

CR!Sonic: And all the good that we did, it... It wouldn't have been done.

UG!Sonic recalled moments that his brother complained about.

UG!Manic: It's just, well... [Hits a drum] I've been thinking... everything we beat, Butt-nik rebuilds. What's the point? Past UG!Sonic: Hey, we just munched a solid-fuel installation. That's not too shabby. UG!Manic: Yeah, I guess. [Sighs] Seems like nothing really changes.

Manic: Yes, but my question is when? For all we know, it could happen twenty years from now. Why bother?!

Back in the present...

UG!Sonic: So what?! So... In this context LM is trying to enforce, we're just supposed to let people close to us die, just because some ALGORITHM-

E-21 (panicked): Woah, woah!

UG!Sonic: -says that's supposed to happen?! What in the world's wrong with you?!

OMT!Tails: Yeah! You three do realise how outright messed up that sounds, right?!

Zonic: *sigh* Alright, let's all take a moment here. So, think about this, in a way. You've heard HIS talk about a supposed way of doing things, right? Now, you have a choice. A choice between saving someone truly special to you, or saving a world. EVERY world if we're talking on a grander scale. Now, look, I'm not trying to force you to choose here. Nobody can. But what would you personally prioritise, if forced into it?

Almost everyone in the room: Both!

OMT!Tails: I can do BOTH of those things! A hero of Mobius always-!

CR!Sonic: Not... "always".

LM!Sonic: You can't have it all, child. Being the hero of Mobius is a sacrifice. That's the job, the job you signed up for.

Fiona: *sigh* Tails...

LM!Sonic's lot gather around OMT!Tails, with SS!Amy stepping between them.

OMT!Tails: Fiona...? What is this? Are you trying to intervene in my heroics?!

Turbo: We know it's hard, but it's still the truth, Tails.

OMT!Tails: Is that why you're gathering around me and Amy now? To let us down easy?

EV!Sonic: You lot, give them room!

OMT!Tails: It worked last time. Why not run it back, huh?

CR!Sonic: H-Hey, hold on there!

OMT!Tails (glaring at OMT!Mina): You were right, Mina. You should NEVER have gotten me involved in this brainwashed freak's game to begin with! You said yourself that you've no interest in professional work, yet that sorry excuse of a "hero" forced you to work with him anyway!

CR!Sonic: Kid, look at me.

OMT!Tails: Stop calling me that!

Pana: And here we go...

Antho: Yeah. Screw that guy.

D-Sides Mighty: Agreed.

Fiona: Pana, Antho, Mighty, you aren't helping.

Antho, Pana and D-Sides Mighty: Good.

OMT!Tails flashed a smile to those three and the kinder Quill Society members.

CR!Sonic: Please understand-!

OMT!Tails: You CAN'T ask me not to save Cream! My life is meaningless without her!

SS!Amy: Yeah! You can't ask him to play by your rules!

LM!Sonic: I'm not asking you.

LM!Sonic used an energy field to restrain OMT!Tails, which shocked everyone except for LM!Sonic's group. CR!Sonic and OMT!Mina quickly backed off seeing this, reconsidering their words.

OMT!Mina (genuinely scared for OMT!Tails): Stop that!

LM!Sonic: If I let him leave, he'll only cause MORE damage. You both know that!

CR!Sonic: No, man! This is going too far!

CR!Sonia: Yeah, you big meanie! That's enough!

CR!Manik nodded, pulling an angry raspberry at LM!Sonic. Antho, though, had a plan, using a hand gesture to remind Tails to absorb that energy from the sphere.

Antho (quietly): Like this, little dude.

LM!Sonic: We just need to hold you for a few hours! Sorry it had to end like this, kid-.

He heard the charging behind him, turning around in shock.

OMT!Tails: I said not to call me that!

Tails's vision darted around, pinning at LM!Sonic and Turbo, and triggering a blast that knocked them backwards.

UG!Sonic: Woo! Nice one, man!

Antho chuckled in approval.

D-Sides Mighty: That paid off nicely!

Milly: What do we do now?

EV!Sonic: Tails, SS, hurry over to the Transport Hub in Sector 30, and use it to bolt after Crimtake and stop him! Everyone else, be ready to cover them!

LM!Sonic got up, his temper having reached his limit.

LM!Sonic: MILES PROWER!

He leapt at the fox, with SS!Amy promptly hitting him back into the wall before he bolted off.

Antho: If he gets to that Hub first, we're in big trouble!

Tekno: Right! On your way there, Tails, send out a red alert to everyone on the planet to stop LM! And ensure he's baited over to the Terminal Velocity spot at Sector 19. That should buy you both enough distance to reach the Hub first.

OMT!Tails: Right! Come on, Amy!

SS!Amy: Right!

The two dashed off, with Turbo and Fiona in pursuit.

EV!Sonic: Everyone else, dispatch! Apprehend LM through any means necessary!

Sarah (through a communicator to Sonic.RAW): RAW? It's Sarah. I need you to get your gear ready. We've got a rogue to apprehend!

Sonic.RAW: On it right now, ma'am!

Every Quill Society member in the room headed out.

CR!Sonic: Alright.

CR!Manik: Should we help Tails out, dad?

CR!Sonic: Yeah. Sorry I'm doing this to you both... This is definitely bad parenting... Just hang tight!

CR!Sonia: You got it!

The three left.

Pana: ...And just for the record, I quit trying to bother with LM.

[head---ache]

New character charts!!!

Edit: Added new info to Lash's section + Added a link to Emmie's section.

They're here!!! The only new info is in the charts themselves btw, the long text under this is the same, except very minor changes. I just thought it would be better than having to go to the old charts to read all of this.

Emmie: She's now officially the one and only Tube Baby of the group!!! I imagine Tails will later use the big fucking tube in his lab, just not for any of the kids in this group (here's three posts about it: First, second, third).

Just to quickly mention it, her full name is Emily, however, everyone in her life just calls her Emmie, because, according to her, 'it goes with her vibe' (first talked about here + in universe explanation here).

She has Black Arms DNA, and although it's uncertain how it affects her, they (Emmie and her dads) know she has green Black Arms blood (shown here) and has access to the hivemind, which as a baby she used to communicate with Shadow (here), but as she grew older she stopped using it, and now finds it harder to access to it.

She also, of course, has Chaos Energy. She can perform Chaos Control (in this one) and turn Super (that second thing they don't know until she's a teenager, shown in this comic). She also has all the abilities Sonic and Shadow share (such as spindash).

Sparks: Like I've said before, Sparks is a Belly Baby, Blaze carried (here's context).

Sparks has fire powers, similar to Blaze's, though they find it a bit harder to control. They get Blaze and Espio's help to learn to use said powers, since they require a lot of concentration. Also, again, like Blaze, they can turn into Burning Sparks (here), but that form is more unstable and drains their energy pretty fast.

I am also taking this space to clarify this about the entire family (including Tulip). Since Blaze is a princess, Amy, Sparks and Tulip do acquire royalty related titles, however, they're very informal and don't hold that much power, since Blaze didn't want them to have any responsability simply because they're related to her. So they're royalty just by name.

Lash: Another Belly Baby, your local surprise baby representation.

Like is said in her chart, her main ability is acrobatics. She also has some sort of super speed but she doesn't rely much on it.

It's not said in her chart but she has both mommy and daddy issues and is often at Aim's house. The first time she stepped into that home and Tangle and Whisper welcomed she immediately felt glued to that family (here).

She also has two younger siblings, Strike and Decay (post introducing them here), and at first she didn't have that much of a relationship with, since they're younger than her and closer to each other, and since Lash spends a lot of time away from home, however, she eventually steps in and tries to be a part of her siblings' lifes as their parents' should've been.

Aim: I finally decided that he's also a Belly Baby, mostly because the timing didn't add up, since him and Emmie are the same age and there's only one Baby Making Tube.

Like it says in their chart, he does archery, which is his main fighting technique, however, during battle they also use their tail to move around faster (otherwise he just keeps it under his cloak) and teams up with Whisper's wisps in very rare occasions.

He does not speak, unlike Whisper who simply speaks quietly. Aim doesn't speak at all, but everyone around him eventually just finds a way to understand him (because I think it's funny). He very usually is the braincell carrier of the group.

Bria: Bria's a Belly Baby as well, it just felt like something Sonia would want.

They don't have any special ability, but they did learn martial arts as a way of self defense, consdering the group of people she often is surrounded by.

Even though Bria's hard of hearing, his biggest passion is music (over being a hero). She plays piano and guitar.

He's also the extrovert of the group. The loudest and friendliest there is. (Should I also add they're Emmie's cousin?)

Tulip: I was a bit more indecisive with him, but in the end I decided to also make him a Belly Baby, because otherwise it felt weird for that to be the one thing he has in common with Emmie. (In-universe explanation here!)

He hasn't shown any special ability yet -he's the youngest of the group though, being only ten years old-, so he isn't allowed to be around the other kids when there's danger, however, he's very sneaky and often gets things to work in his favor anyways. He does have an interest in tarot though, thanks to Amy, and he also shows to have an impressive intuition.

When he's not around Sparks he is often found next to Big, probably complaining to him about something.

Destiny: One and only Code Baby!! She's basically made from the same programming as Nicole, but more advanced and sophisticated.

Being an AI herself, she can hack robots and similar things, which helps during battle. They can also get into anyone's computer if they want to (they rarely do).

She usually takes the leader role very naturally, immediately making a plan on the spot and guiding the rest of the group. However, she's quite shy (even while being an extrovert. This forms a bit of a problem for her, wanting to be around people but being too shy to do it). Her more confident side mainly showing when assuming the role of the leader. She has great friends tho, who encourage to speak up and lead:]

Spades: She's a belly baby just because of the timeline, there simply wasn't a way without changing her age to make it make sense for her to be a Tube Baby -and I like her being 16-. Unfortunately I backed myself into a corner here JSKDJSKFJWKFKS I don't have many details on how she came to be because, guess what!! There's no real way for her to be the way she is the way I want it to happen:]]] So let's just use our imagination and say that it's possible for two amab people to have a kid who's biologically related to both of them because this is a world where magic color changing hedgehogs are a thing so this isn't super crazy, okay? Okay.

Like I said in this post, Spades has trajectory manipulation, so basically she will never miss her target, and can move away whatever is thrown at her, so that's pretty handy:] She also trains with Espio, so she has a lot of his abilities. She doesn't really want to be a ninja but has many of the skills.

She's the mom of the group!!! And the braincell carrier. She is very sweet and caring, but also quiet and calculating. Her strategy is the best, and her stoic appareance makes her look a bit threatening, but she's actually a total sweetheart!!

Also about swimming!! She really likes it because she finds it relaxing. You can't hear anything underwater so she likes to close her eyes and just swim around.

She gets along with everyone in the group, but is usually hanging out with Aim and Lash:)

And that's it for the individual kids!!

THE SHINING ROAD

Everyone looks to the road ahead, shining with the rising dawn…

PREVIOUS CHAPTER: LEAVES IN THE WIND

NEXT CHAPTER: HUMAN

Flickies chirped high above the grassy earth beneath their wings. Their joyous songs filled the warm air on Mobius as the sun began to rise. With the Metarex finally defeated, peace had returned across the universe.

But at what cost?

Such were the thoughts that plagued the young girl’s mind as she watched the world beyond the rolling green hills wake from its slumber. She closed her eyes, recalling the week-long journey back from the obliterated planet. Nobody had spoken a word, each grieving for the seedrian and friend lost. She recalled her petals and ashes blowing gently through the cosmos as the young fox cried out in failure and anguish. He’d stayed like that for a while, curled up in front of his control panel until he had no more tears to shed. She recalled spotting Sonic floating back towards the broken, dead planet, coming back to the ship after a short while. She’d followed him, watching silently from around the corner as he quietly approached his dear brother. After a few moments, he held out a tiny seed, though not one created for destruction like the others. No, this seed was a remnant from their lost friend, a reminder she’d left behind for Tails to keep moving forward without her towards a brighter future. He took it, burying his face in his brother’s chest as he wept. It had all been too much, especially for someone his age, and Sonic held him close until he was okay to let go, voicing his own apologies for failing as a hero.

It wasn’t just him though. Everyone felt like a failure.

Though with each passing day, the pain grew ever distant. Eve’s wounds healed quickly, her charred skin now showing no signs of injury or scarring to her brother’s surprise. By all accounts, it was a miracle, though Eve didn’t feel so lucky. Sonic still refused to speak to her, the two of them even more unsure how to move forward as friends after his stunt with the seed.

None of that mattered now anyway.

Today was the day she was to return home.

Today was the day she would say goodbye to all of her friends…

Forever this time.

—----------------------------------------------------------

“All set, Knuckles. The energy is stable.”

Eve stood there silently, eyes downcast as her brother readied the ship he built that would return them to their home dimension. The window for such travel was closing rapidly with only a few minutes now to spare.

Still, she wasn’t ready.

“Alright. Then you two better get going. The window won’t be open for much longer.”

“We’ll miss you two.”

They’d already said goodbye to the young rabbit, her chao friend, and the gang of Chaotix detectives. Tails had offered a small goodbye, but still needed time to himself, leaving only Amy and Knuckles to see the Thorndyke siblings off. As for the blue hedgehog, he’d gone silent and was nowhere to be found.

Sonic…

She’d never be able to make it up to him, not when the blue hedgehog was absent from the scene. It tore her up inside and out, yet there was nothing she could do now. 

She had to go back to where she belonged.

She had to…

It was the right thing to do…

Eve jolted as her brother’s hand met her shoulder, “Hey, you ready?”

She had no choice…

Eve nodded, keeping her gaze low.

Besides, it wasn’t as if things could go back to the way they were between them. It would never be the same. They each lost a part of themselves on that space station: his confidence…her trust…

Nothing would ever be the same between them.

“...Alright. I guess that’s everything then. Come on, Eve.” Chris tugged gently on her hand as he walked forward.

There was no point in staying.

And yet…

Eve paused, her hand falling gently from his grasp.

“Chris…”

He turned to face her.

“I-”

“Stay.”

Eve jolted, her eyes flying upwards as she met his sad but smiling gaze.

“But-”

“It’s okay.”

The two of them stayed like that for a moment, staring into each other’s eyes as Amy and Knuckles watched in shock. 

Chris turned to face them, “Can you two give us a moment?”

The two Mobians looked to each other with concern before looking back and nodding. They stepped away, allowing the two siblings to speak privately.

“Chris…” Eve began to tear up. She turned her head sharply away, “No. I’ve thought it over a-and…” She trailed off.

“And what?”

“I-I don’t…belong here, Chris! I-I’m not Mobian! I-I’m only human! You saw what happened! I-I belong on a world where I can’t get in the way because of that, a-a world where I’m safe!”

“You mean a world without adventure?”

“...”

“Without…your friends?”

Eve looked up at him, wavering in her conviction as doubt seeped into her gaze. She looked away just as quickly, guilt washing over her.

“...”

Chris took his little sister’s hands in his, “Eve…I’ve been watching over you these past seven years, ever since Sonic first showed me what it meant to be a big brother. Not once in the six years they were gone did I ever see you come to life as you have with them. They are your family just as much as I will always be…” A couple tears sprung from his eyes, “...and just as you will always be to me.”

Tears sprung into her eyes too as she raced in for a hug, burying her face into her brother’s chest one last time.

“I love you, Christopher.”

He returned her embrace.

“I love you too, Evelyn.”

In that moment, time seemed to freeze. The two Thorndyke siblings held each other in one final goodbye. Neither were truly ready to let go, but the time had come to part ways. As Chris strapped himself into the rocket seat, an empty chair behind him, Eve walked up to the door one last time with a smile.

“Tell Mom and Dad, Ella, Chuck, Tanaka…and all my friends that I said goodbye. And tell them ‘thank you’...for everything.”

“I will.”

The scientist pressed the button to close the rocket’s door.

“Eve…”

It was a quiet goodbye, but one not lost on the girl. She wanted to return it, to show her gratitude that he’d acknowledged her as she truly was in their final moments together.

But it was too late. 

The rocket released a burst of chaos energy, launching high into the air. Eve felt one foot glide in front of the other.

Tap.

Then another.

Tap. Tap.

Before she knew it, she was running after him, waving as she forced herself to keep up.

Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap.

The human girl ran through the rolling green hills of Mobius, her hair as golden as the risen sun gliding gently behind her like a cape as she fought with all her strength to keep up. Flickies and Pockies dotted the shining road she raced upon, watching curiously as each foot pounded the soft earth beneath. She gasped for air with each step, sweat flying from her small figure and glistening like the morning dew. 

TAPTAPTAPTAPTAPTAP

Her foot hit a small rock, causing her to stumble.

“AH-!!”

But she didn’t fall.

SHOOOOM!

snatch

“-!!?”

In a sudden gust of wind, the girl with the golden hair was swept off her feet safely in the arms of her dearest friend. She looked up at him, her turquoise eyes meeting those of a deep emerald as she sought the words which eluded her.

“Sonic…I-I-”

“I’m here. Let’s do this…together.”

Tears flooded her eyes as she watched him smile warmly, a smile forming along her lips as well.

“Right!”

With that, Sonic raced onward with his friend tucked safely in his arms. The two of them caught up to the rapidly ascending ship in no time, waving and smiling at the man above. He looked out the window, smiling back at them tearfully as he remembered approaching the hedgehog yesterday, making sure his intentions were clear this time so as not to cause another bout of panic.

“Sonic…I know what happened between you two back on Narcissus’s ship.”

“Y-You do?”

“Yeah…I was able to track how the fake emerald energy was responding to your rage. Then Eve showed back up on the ship with those burns…”

“...”

“Sonic…I don’t blame you for what happened. In fact, I came here to ask you for a favor.”

“What kind of favor?”

“My sister…please…watch over her for me…”

“Huh? W-Whaddya mean? Isn’t she going home with you?”

“You and I both know that her home is here. Sonic, I never saw her more alive than when she was with you. When you left all those years ago, it was as if she left too. A part of her died back then and I could never hold her back from living the life she deserves.”

“And what kind of life is that?”

“A life where she can be free…”

“Chris…Why would you trust me with her safety? After everything that happened-”

“Because I know you care about her more than anyone else. You’re also the greatest hero I know.”

“But I’ve made terrible mistakes!”

“It isn’t about that!”

“Then what is it about!?”

“You have a heart more pure than anyone else I’ve met. You just have to see it. I would have no one else watch over my precious little sister.”

“Chris…”

The older Thorndyke sibling shed a few tears as his mind returned to the present. He placed a hand gently on the window overlooking them.

The two friends shouted in unison as they continued racing along, “GOODBYE, CHRIS!!!”

Chris smiled, waving at them once more before he began to fly out of sight.

The Hero of Mobius slowed his pace as he came to the cliffside near the ocean, lowering the human in his arms to the grass beneath their feet. She continued to shout, waving as the ship flew higher and higher still until, inevitably, it became a speck in the distance. Her hair shone brilliantly like the sun beaming upon the gentle waves. Soon, a couple glimmers of light caught near her eyes as her smile faltered. She began to tremble, trying with all her strength to hold herself together.

“G-Good…Goodb-bye…b-brothe-”

She fell to her knees, releasing a resounding wail into the warm air surrounding them. Her cries echoed beyond the cliffs, bouncing off the vast ocean as blue as the sky and friend by her side. Fat tears rolled down her cheeks, no longer able to be contained. Where once she would have been glad to be rid of Christopher Thorndyke, she now mourned the loss of her dear, loving brother. 

The Blue Blur watched her sadly in this bittersweet moment. He then looked out once more beyond the shining road at the vast, endless blue of Mobius’s sky.

“Please, Sonic…Promise me you’ll look after Eve…”

Sonic shed a few tears as he placed a hand to his chest in determination, smiling at the ship as it disappeared beyond the stars.

“I promise, Chris.”

SAGA END

Random ramblings of team hooligan because I can

Fang X Bark is a good ship I like it, fang has two hands he can date both bark and Corsen he’s a bisexual motherfucker.

If trip does become a member of team hooligan, her and bean have to have sibling vibes.

The Marvelous Queen is a big fan of gamma, the garage is filled with fucking gamma merch. Fang has to explain each time this isn’t his, it’s the queens.

I’ve seen many oc x fang art, and I am proud to be in that group. But what I’ve noticed is that most have the “talk shit at each other in affection “ route which I also love! But Corsen doesn’t work that way at all.

She spoils the shit outta fang.

This woman just FUELS his ego more. Helps in situations but good lord this idiot jerboa is gonna have the guts to launch him self off a cannon because of her, and bean would join him.

Bean technically has four dads. you got bin, his actual biological dad. Pin, his uncle, Fang the bad influence. And Bark, the good influence! Then you got Lucy, the marvelous Queen and Corsen being his mom figures, and trip being his potential sister! Bean’s got a big family! ^^

I imagine if the hooligans got a super form, fang would be able to summon a billion of corks, big or small, and launch them at his foes with the snap of his fingers! Bark would be able to use ice powers, summon giant icebergs and fire snowballs, maybe throw a giant snowman at enemies hell yeah lets get silly! And bean just summons a nuke, OH FUCK.

If anyone random flirts with fang, Corsen is getting out a fucking rocket launcher you better RUN.

I have a metal Fang by the way ( his names clang ), and he basically has the same goal as metal Sonic, get rid of fang. But he also has a crush on Corsen and calls her his gamer girl, fang and the marvelous Queen beat the shit out of him.

Unsure if I wanna make a metal bark or bean design and what they would be like.

Jet was caught by the authorities once and they showed him his wanted picture…wait..JET THE JERBOA THATS FUCKING FA-

I’d like a treasure team tango 2 please

Fang and Nic have a good relationship in my headcanon because fucking say so, I love positivity, I like some angst but positive makes me go BRRRRR

Metal Sonic is fucking lucky he was dealing with Amy, or fang would’ve beat the EVER LIVING SHIT OUT OF HIS CIRCUITS FOR TAKING HIS BOYS.

Bean angrily punching the wall because he missed the moment of fang caring about them, NEXT TIME FOR SURE

Honey the cat helping Corsen how to girl because she has no fucking clue what she’s doing.

Honey and Fang have a sibling like relationship, THEY are the ones that talk shit about each other but if some stranger talks shit about them they will FIGHT them.

The hooligans have appeared in honey’s magazine because she needs models for her clothes! plus they have her temporary protection so the authorities can’t get to them lol.

I headcanon that in the modern world, the hooligans become a band! All the music with lyrics that you hear throughout the games is just fucking team hooligan! Especially the music in frontiers, Female lyrics is either Corsen or honey, but most of the singing is done by fang, bark has the guitar, bean is on the drums, and the Queen is on keyboard. Some times fang gets the bloody piano out because I know you read Archie if you headcanon fang plays the piano! Lets go!

Fang is known for not only having bad luck, but also being very cartoony, Wild E. Coyote vibes he gives, but whenever Corsen is nearby, his luck increases, so you could say Corsen is his good luck charm.

Fang and bean get scared easily by anything horror related, bark usually has to be there with them to be the “emotional support teddy bear”

-

That’s all for now but you can drop your wholesome team hooligan headcanons too! I’d love to hear them, especially thanks to Sonic superstars for spiking up their popularity! Lets make sure team hooligan is never forgotten again! ^^

NEXT GEN DINOBOTS!

I’ve finally got around to making Dinobots sparkling Ocs, and after several redesigns I’m really happy with these!

They do exist in my lost light au btw! When Tailgate and Cyclonus experimented with making Gale without an hotspot. So Grimlock Asked(more like demand) Brainstorm to somehow find a way to make more dinobots without a hotspot as well as without having a partner.

So Brainstorm after watching some of swerve’s earth movies got the bright idea to create an Dinobot from an egg somehow, with the help of Grimlocks dna of course. AND IT WORKED! (Sorta) Bam was created then after few hundred years later so was Spittake and so forth.

Bam The Brontosaurus : Bam is the eldest at 400+ years old! (In my au Sparklings age like normal humans then after age 18 their body starts aging like a normal cybertonian) she is very kind and patient with her siblings and can come across very motherly. She often helps Grimlock “tame” the kids when things go south.

Though Bam is a Dinobot she doesn’t talk in 3rd person like Grimlock most of the time. This is probably due to the fact that she grew up around other cybertonians like her good friend Gale. She is also very smart as well, some tease she should be Queen of the Dinos some day!

Spittake The Dilophosaurus: He is the second oldest at age 12, and he honestly lives up to his name. He’s definitely a kind of shit disturber and hates when things are to “peaceful” in the Habsuite. Most of the chaotic things happening on the ship are usually caused by him, especially when he creates his artwork on the walls of the ship.

Spittake is able to use the colorful tar that constantly comes from his body and use it to create art! Though pretty on the surface, if it leaks into your optics or any kind of pores it can create very strong hallucinations. Victims of this have been Magnus, Grimlock, trailcutter and Prowl. All on accident of course!

Spittake may seem like a troublesome mech king but he’s actually a sweetheart who would do anything for his friends and family! He’s mostly seen make arts and crafts with Gala and Ten.

Hit The Raptor: she is the second youngest at 4 years old, The only way I can describe Hit perfectly is that she’s kind of a mix between Amy rose from sonic and Angelica from rugrats if that makes any sense? She definitely bratty and usually gets what she wants most of the time. She’s also a huge daddy’s girl, so whenever Spittake or some bots mean to her she’ll always run to Grimlock.

Hits a girly girl despite her tomboyish behavior sometimes. Her favorite color is pink and she always wants to play dress up with someone. Also Gala is her best friend so don’t be mean to her either unless you wanna see her true wrath.

Crash The Spinosaurus: crash is the youngest at 3 years old, there is much to say about him yet but that he feels more comfortable in his alt form instead. All of the next Gen dinobots stayed in their alt forms as Sparklings but Crash is taking a bit more time than usual.

He’s a very energetic and happy sparkling, even though he can’t say full words. He has a bad habit with biting things and bots occasionally, but it’s just his form of teething. Also he likes Gala…a lot! ;)
