#prompt: reflection

[sokkas-first-fangirl]

If the magic failed, that meant they were doing something wrong. Not working hard enough. Not dedicated enough. Not helping enough.

The Madrigals worked harder than ever. Work and dedication would keep the Miracle burning. Abuela told them now, more than ever, that they must be strong. They must be grateful. They would serve and strengthen their community, thereby proving themselves worthy of their precious Miracle.

Bruno was gone. Mirabel was Gifless.

Isabela was thrust into her role more than ever. The shining example, the good girl. The perfect rose. Graceful, beautiful, sweet, perfect Isabela.

She couldn’t falter. Not even for a second.

Abuela was counting on her.

A study in Isabela Madrigal's reflection over the years. How it changes and how her own perception of herself changes with it.

BOUND FOR FREEDOM YEAR SIX: “CHANGES”

Prompt: “Reflection”

"Used t'be I'd hate winding up in the same places over 'n' over again, but...for a little bit there, Sal, I was scared I'd never get t'be here with you like this again...."

"That makes two of us. But...I'm glad and grateful that we can. In a way...isn't it what we've always been fighting for?"

Whenever we make Changes in our life, it is always cause for Reflection.

Remember: You can either submit your entries directly to this blog, or else tag with #boundforfreedom, #sonally week, and/or #sonsal week

Also don’t forget: you can still submit for prior prompts (from any year) as well if you want ^_^

The more things change, the more they stay the same ^_^

I'm very impressed at just how well you balance the Compare and Contrast of the two pairs here, honestly; Sonic in particular wouldn't seem to have much room to differentiate from one version to the next, but the gradation in color you use works PERFECTLY. The mix of Subtle and Overt differences between the two Sallys also feels very nicely observed, the look of their distinctive hairstyles especially. And I like the choice of Mood here, the somewhat guarded yet intrigued way the two pairs seem to regard each other. That last part especially plays well with the loose flowy feel of the lines this time around, the nuances and flourishes of the poses really pop for me here in the best way.

@boundforfreedomsonsal Day 6: Reflection

The genesis wave may have changed their stories, but both duos remain freedom fighters at heart and continue to work together in the battle against oppression.

Prompt 41

Hear me out, DP and DC crossover where Scarecrow is cousins with the Fentons. 

 His mother was siblings with Jack’s father, and both Jazz and Danny met ‘Uncle Jonathan’ during one of the many Fenton-Nightingale family reunions that happens every few years. Honestly, perhaps it’s what gets Jazz interested in psychology, hearing from her ‘uncle’ about fear and its effects.

 And honestly once they start having to deal with ghosts and having had to deal with their parents for years it’s not really hard to talk with their uncle. Crane still doesn’t know how he became these kids’ favorite uncle, or even all of the family kids’ favorite uncle-cousin, but that’s just how the family is. 

 Really he’s not even the only villain of the family, with both Jack and Maddie being close but not quite, even if they’re definitely mad scientists. Their son becoming a local hero, even if they’re not aware of that fact, is just ironic. 

 John knows. The two kids told him when they found out that Danny may or may not need to feed on fear now that he’s half ghost, and well he’s the specialist about the emotion so…

 At least they have someone to stay with when Jazz goes to Gotham university and brings Danny with her, even if the local vigilantes are concerned as to why Scarecrow attacks have suddenly took a nosedive…

Batman: You need a new costume. That one provides no protection.

Danny: oh I cant.

Batman: You won’t owe me for it.

Danny: no I literally cant. Like if i remove it it just returns.

Batman:………. Explain.

Danny: look *takes off glove and explodes it into pieces*

[boundforfreedomsonsal]

Ha ha, what an unexpected but delightfully inspired crossover! I very much appreciate the clear and clever thought you've put into this whole thing, both visually in terms of the designs and conceptually in terms of finding what would be compelling about these characters in "Belle"'s setting. I'm especially struck by how far you're able to push Sally's design while still keeping it recognizable, the clever way you maintain a similar facial shape despite remixing its underlying features works brilliantly. The fun sweet ways you expand on Sonic's look to create his design is very well played too, adding a distinct feel of its own while keeping it grounded in the familiar. And I LOVE the insightful thought you put into WHY these are the forms they take in U; the unicorn/purity element for Sally, Sonic's desire to tap into his Super Form's abilities more freely, it's all very resonant and satisfying.

Yay, I managed to finish a thing for Sonally Week!! (Boy I sure do hate doing backgrounds!)

Day 6: Reflection

So! This AU was inspired by the anime movie "Belle" (great movie btw), wherein Sally and Sonic have never met, that is until they both join a popular online virtual world known a "U" in order to escape the problems in their respective lives. The avatars generated by U's AI are, in a way, a distorted reflection of the user themselves and how they wish to be seen by others.

Sonic avatar takes inspiration from his super form, albeit a bit softer and fluffier, with some dragon elements to highlight the fantasy of online world. His super form has always inspired confidence in him, being both invulnerable and literally charged with positive energy and all that. As Super Sonic, he felt like he could do anything. He wishes he could feel that way again, even just for a little bit...

Sally's avatar is more of a reflection of her desire to be seen as someone strong and intimidating. As for the unicorn motif? Well, typically unicorns are associated with purity and innocence, a delicate ethereal being. All thing's Sally is not, but an image that has been forced on her. The dark unicorn is a subversion of this, twisting her family's perception of her with her own perception of herself...

Sonic's design was the first thing I came up with in this AU and more or less got it right the first try! He play's the role of Beauty in this scenario. Sally was a different Beast altogether (pun intended). My god, she went through soooo many design changes...and colour changes... but here we are at last!

Oh wow, tying the time-traveling twisty-turns of "Blast to the Past" in your before/after conceit is a genuine stroke of genius, and you do a fantastic job of weaving it elegantly and endearingly into both segments. It's also full of those greatly-observed character details you've been so consistently good at; Sally spying on Adult Conversations as a means of Royal Training and Sonic's corresponding disinterest in what he calls "the Politics Tree" is an especially nice core to the whole thing, but I also love the central conceit of Young Sally unwittingly seeing feelings she hasn't yet been able to define for herself in "Alicia" and "Juice"'s interactions; you make the emotional/thought process behind it feel so believable. The mix of spoken and unspoken communication Present-Day Sonic and Sally use to work through their feelings here is also very sharply observed. The lightly recursive layer on top of all that, of Sonic and Sally literally reflecting on their younger selves, adds another rich little vein to the story that I quite enjoyed too.

Summary: A series of moments in the lives of Sonic and Sally, showing the reflection of their childhood selves in their later relationship.

MMMM twins au with danny and dan except its og TUE timeline danny and dan

ok okay i neeeeed o write this down and share it before i explode buT. as the title says. twins danny and dan (who im going to be calling James/Jamie bc i cannot express how much i despise the name dan) where, instead of disappearing into the ghost zone after he's separated from danny's body, Dan rips out Vlad's ghost half, tears THAT in half, and fuses one half with himself and the other with Danny.

Shit happens, and BOOM. Two morally ambiguous and perhaps slightly murderous demonic twins from hell. Daniel James Fenton and his Twin WHose Always Been Here What Are You Talking About :) James Daniel Fenton. They are both depressed, lonely, and one bad day from becoming a mass extinction event :)

this is because i got grabbed by the hair today and dragged into the SVSS fandom screaming and the fanart of Shen Jiu/Shen Yuan/Shen Quingqiu (????) with his fan entranced me. Ice Prince Core is my favorite thing so naturally i have to implant that onto my favorite blorbos ever :)

After the Incident, both their appearances changed and they're practically identical to each other. Sorta. They both have heterochromia and salt-and-pepper hair. But Danny has one green eye and one blue eye and white hair with black streaks, while Jamie has one blue eye and one green eye and black hair with white streaks. I'm iving them both long hair, for funsies <3

nobody can tell them apart, they keep getting confused on whose who and frankly the mix-match hair and eyes make it worse not better asjd. they're horrifically codependent. please do not separate :)

and because i must. im pulling a blood blossom/tales of the passerine and giving them to pre-robin batman. batman and his terrifying demon(??) twins. nobody is quite sure if they're human or not, and the scourge of gotham are a little too terrified to ask.

(they dont HAVE to go to batman while he's pre-robin. however. i think its much funnier that way bc gotham isn't use to A) Batman having kids, and B) Batman having TERRIFYING kids yet. think of all the new fun rumors)

they both use war fans while they're out, and neither of them use their ghost forms because they at least have the remaining empathy to know that they're more likely to murder someone accidentally as a ghost :). Ghost form is for fellow mythicals and Functionally Immortals Only! Not for Squishy Humans.

Jamie: murder. bloodshed. revengggee Bruce: no. no. Justice. peace!! hope! Danny: bittinngggg. blooood. ^-^

They're honestly not bad kids they're just horrifically traumatized two halves of a whole that can never be reunited ever again :).

idk what their vigilante names are but i do know that the underground refer to them in horrified whispers as 'the twins'. this all stemmed from the desperate and sudden urge to see Danny and Jamie, as their vigilante selves, hiding the lower half of their faces with fans and looking terrifyingly judgmental while they do it <333

TOApril Day 6 - Hair Holds Memories

Meg's hair is one of my favourite characteristics of hers because its growth is so intrinsically tied to her freedom of choice and the memories of her loved ones. I'll never forgive Nero for taking that freedom away from her 😭

[boundforfreedomsonsal]

The clever tonal balance here is really well played. In the main, after all, it's a fairly light little story, with the episodic structure encouraging us to think of it primarily in terms of the charming interplay of the characters, the gentle humor of each scene as we keep running in to the same minor and amusingly specific problem over and over again. And yet the deeper we go, the more we, along with Sally, begin to pick up on the Meaning behind the Pattern, until we reach the final scene and it becomes more clear. The soft-touch way you weave those things together makes it work all the more effectively, and the spot-on ways you tap into both characters' personalities-Sally, observant but mindful; Sonic, flippant but also vulnerable-makes it feel totally authentic and resonant. And so the story succeeds both at being light and fun, but also sincere and heartwarming by the end. I really loved it.

Sonsally Week 2024: Day 6 - Reflection

I did it again. Unfortunately there are themes in my AU.

So trigger warning again for minor body image themes. This also takes place in the current timeline of my AU, probably a bit after my entry for Sonally Week 2021 Day 4: Power. It's not required reading, it's just to give a timeline spot for it.

“Ah, dangit! I forgot mah mirror!”

The Freedom Fighters stood gathered in the junkyard that bordered Robotropolis, though the word bordered did a lot of heavy lifting considering most of Robotroplis could be considered a junkyard. But it was one of the few places in the city that had a space for them to gather while they worked through last minute preparations for their missions.

This is how Bunnie came across a slight hiccup in their current plan as she rifled through her backpack.

“Are you sure? Maybe it’s caught under something,” Sally offered.

Bunnie shook her head as she went through her bag one more time, before out of desperation she tipped it out onto the ground so she could get a clearer view of what she did have with her.

“Ah swear Ah had it on th’ last mission,” Bunnie explained as she went through her things, only to still come up empty.

Then her ears perked briefly in realisation, before flopping back with mild embarrassment.

“But then Ah did clear out mah bag ‘cause I got some muck in it last time, too,” Bunnie admitted sheepishly.

“Oh yeah, that stuff gets everywhere. You’re lucky you still got a backpack at all,” Sonic laughed.

“But Ah plume don’t have a mirror thanks to it,” Bunnie sighed. “Sugah-hog, c’n Ah borrow yers?”

Sally swore for a second Sonic looked like a deer caught a set of headlights, but the look was so brief that she wasn’t sure if she had seen it right as Sonic gave Bunnie an easy grin.

“Oh yeah, sure. Just a sec,” Sonic said.

He slipped off his backpack from his shoulders and rummaged through it, only to pause, his ears perking in obvious surprise.

“Uh, just a sec,” Sonic echoed, then rummaged through his backpack some more.

After a few moments he gave Bunnie an embarrassed look, his smile crooked.

“Sorry, Bunnie. I don’t have mine either,” Sonic apologised.

“Since when don’t you have your mirror?” Sally demanded. “You use it for everything but signalling.”

“Beats me. It must o’ slipped outta my pack on another mission,” Sonic shrugged as he slipped his backpack over his shoulders. “It’s cool, I’ll just get another one from Rote’ when we get back home.”

Sally sighed as she shook her head, before she reached into her pack and handed Bunnie her small mirror.

“Remind me to do an inventory check on everyone’s packs tomorrow,” Sally stated. “For now let’s move.”

Another night. Another mission.

This time Sonic was on signal duty and was perched up high on a ledge of a building that sat opposite of a storage unit in the middle of the city. Sally was on the ground, working with the security lock, so her back was constantly turned to the street as her focus was completely on the lock.

The best way to catch her attention for any approaching SWATbots or hoverunits was to catch some limited light and reflect it onto the wall just in her field of vision. It wasn’t the most foolproof, but the area was more prone to hoverunit patrols than SWATbots, and they were harder to catch from the ground. Hence Sonic’s position.

Sally was one number away from cracking the lock when a flinting circle of light caught her attention. Without hesitation she jumped for her hiding place, but not before taking a quick glance at the light that still danced on the wall’s surface. It was a little brighter than she expected it to be, considering how dingy the city was, and was a little impressed that Sonic got such a strong angle.

From her hiding place she looked up towards Sonic, then squinted when she realised he wasn’t using a mirror but his flashlight.

Sonic had assured her that he had a mirror this time before they left for the city.

She frowned, wondering if Sonic had gotten slack with his supplies again. She made a mental note to do an inventory check, scolding herself slightly for forgetting to do it after their last mission when she said she was going to. Then the hoverunit glided by, allowing Sally to get back to the lock.

Another night. Another mission.

About an hour or so before they were due to leave Sally made sure everyone had their supplies, including Sonic. When it was discovered he was still missing a mirror she had practically escorted him to Rotor’s workshop to ask the walrus for one. It had taken them nearly an hour to find one amongst the piles of junk and spare parts Rotor had accumulated over the years, mostly because when he opened his supply cupboard’s door everything came crashing down on him. Thankfully there was a pile of old mirrors scavenged from Robotropolis stashed away in a somewhat safe spot, so none had broken during the avalanche.

Sally had personally handed Sonic an old handheld mirror, one that she knew was very similar to the one he always used to carry, and watched him slip it into his backpack.

Somehow, between then and arriving in the city, Sonic had lost the mirror.

Sally couldn’t understand how one tiny bit of equipment kept being lost, and wondered if Bunnie misplacing hers had somehow caused a small epidemic. It wasn’t that having a mirror was vital, but it was a lightweight object that had always come in handy on their missions in the most unexpected ways. Mainly for signalling to one another when silence was the fine line between success and getting caught.

So it had become required gear for everyone to have in their packs at all times. With Sonic he would use his at the most frustrating times for its original purpose, and ironically enough Sally would be forced to confiscate it to make Sonic focus on the mission.

The thought made Sally pause a moment. Thinking about it now, when was the last time Sonic had done that? It used to be an almost once-per-mission deal, especially if they were paired up and Sonic wanted to rile her up. It would even sometimes happen when they were home.

Sally frowned at the thought.

The next morning Sally had briefed the Freedom Fighters their next mission plans at the War Alcove, giving everyone a chance to collaborate their ideas or concerns. The meeting had taken a couple of hours, but it had been quite productive as it gave Sally more ideas to mull over for the rest of the day.

“Sonic, can you hang back for a bit?” Sally asked when she had dismissed everyone, watching as Sonic’s ears perked with surprise.

“I only fell asleep once, c’mon!” Sonic complained.

“Twice, actually. But I’ll forgive the first time,” Sally clarified. “Just hang back please.”

Sonic rolled his eyes but obliged, barely giving the others a glance as they left the Alcove. It wasn’t really uncommon for the two to talk after a meeting, for a variety of reasons depending on how the meeting went in the first place.

“Can I just do an inventory check with you?” Sally asked.

Sonic barely bit back a groan, acting all the part of a toddler being told to take a bath after spending the day dive bombing mud puddles.

“Again wit’ th’ inventory checks, Sal? You already got me to do one, remember?” Sonic bit.

“Your inventory is more vital to our missions, and to yourself. So I just want to make sure everything is where it’s supposed to be,” Sally explained, before she pulled out a seemingly random piece of paper from the piles of other papers she had scattered across the table.

“I even made a list, so just humour me. Please?”

“Ugh, fine. But I ain’t doin’ it again,” Sonic muttered, before slipping off his backpack and flipping it open.

“First-aid kit?” Sally began.

Sonic dug through his pack and pulled out a small zip pouch. He took a moment to open it up so he could show Sally its contents, and when she gave a nod of approval he set it on the table.

“Your counter-agent kit?”

“I still hate th’ idea o’ havin’ to carry needles wit’ me, but sure,” Sonic stated as he yanked out another zip pouch. This one looked a little more durable because of the more delicate contents, but as far as Sally could tell it was holding up.

“Just remember to check with Bookshire that everything’s still good to use,” Sally reminded. “Power Ring?”

“Used it last night. But th’ next one’s due in another six hours,” Sonic explained, before he pulled down the cuff of his glove to reveal his watch and gave it a light tap. “Even got an alarm set for it ‘nd everythin’.”

“Look at you being so organised. I could get used to this,” Sally teased, smirking as Sonic stuck his tongue out at her. “Mirror?”

Sally caught Sonic hesitate for a split second, before he made a show of going through his backpack once more. He even pulled out other items from his pack so he could make his show more believable, which Sally had to give him some credit for.

“Ah, shoot. I must have lost that new one I got from Rotor yesterday,” Sonic winced, clawing at one of his ears in feign embarrassment. “I’ll swing by Rotor’s again ‘nd get another one.”

Wordlessly Sally reached into her inner vest pocket and pulled out a mirror with a short handle, which she set on the table next to Sonic’s things.

Sonic blinked at it, then gave Sally a crooked smile.

“Oh, cool! That was easy. Thanks, Sal,” Sonic said.

“You’re welcome. That’s all I had on my list, you can pack your things again,” Sally stated.

She watched him carefully as Sonic gathered his things again, taking note of what he picked up in what order. As she guessed, Sonic hesitated at the mirror, and surprisingly he looked away from it as he picked it up. He even took the extra step of twirling it in his hand by its handle so that it faced away from him as he made to put it away.

Before he got it into his backpack Sally reached over and took a hold of it, pulling it out of his grip and setting it back on the table, making sure that it was facing down. Sonic blinked again, then tilted his head at her, clear confusion on his face.

“Wha’ gives? You said I had to have one,” Sonic asked.

“I did, don’t worry,” Sally assured.

“I wasn’t worryin’. You’re just givin’ me mixed signals here...”

Sonic’s voice trailed off as Sally reached into her inner pocket again and offered him what he first thought was Nicole, as the object had a striking resemblance to the handheld computer. But as Sonic looked at it closer he realised it was a compact mirror, like what one would find in a makeup bag.   

“How about you try this one?” Sally offered.

Sonic turned it over in his hands, noting the black plastic that made up the mirror’s cover. He opened it, but still made the mirror face away from him as he tested out the hinge.

“Do I get a makeup kit t’go wit’ it?” Sonic asked.

“I’m afraid that’s not Freedom Fighter standard gear,” Sally laughed. “But if you’re keen on that I’m sure Bunnie would have one somewhere you could borrow.”

“Nah, I think I’m good,” Sonic smirked, then snapped the compact mirror shut before waggling it at Sally. “Smart move.”

“Just try to hold onto this one for more than an hour, please?” Sally asked. “You can give the other ones back to Rotor.”

“Yeah, yeah.”

He slipped the compact mirror into his backpack, this time with no hesitation, and even taking an extra step to make sure it was in a spot where it would be secure amongst his other items. He then pulled Sally into a hug, nuzzling his muzzle against her throat and neck.

“Thanks, Sal.”

Sally returned the hug, planting a soft kiss on Sonic’s cheek.

“Any time, Sonic. Just let me know if anything like this bothers you again, okay?”

“Now where’s the fun in that? I got so many mirrors out o’ th’ deal there,” Sonic teased, clicking his teeth at Sally as she gave him a playful swat.

[witherbythesword]

if the theory of sam reich being replaced by .. evil wizard dalton reich (and i cant believe i am partaking in this discurse) is true..

i've seen some people asking the question about what those childhood tapes mean. Well i am one of the ancient ones that owned vhs tapes and you know you could replace whats stored on those tapes with overwriting it with new material but it would slowly degrade the quality as the magnetic tape the information is stored on isn't necessarly made to be re-recorded on indefinetly which would also explain the degrading quality of the gamechanger episode.

So my theory is that dalton reich wants to erase sam from history and to do this he is slowly erasing any proof that could hint on sam and dalton being two different people. One thing he appearantly needed to do is overwrite these old vhs tapes of sams childhood.

DP X DC X Subnautica

Where the Justice League (mostly focusing on the Superfam or Batfam or Flashfam) are large leviathan-esque creatures living on Planet 4546B. Maybe they can change forms due to Precursor experimentation, maybe not. Those with young hang out around the shallows more than the others, what with most of them being large super or specialized predators.

Enter Danny Fenton, interning on the Aurora when the ship is shot down by the Quarantine Enforcement Platform. Oh sure he probably would have tried to stop the destruction and help, but his ghost powers are a bit on the fritz and a well-meaning worker pushes him into one of the last life pods seeing as he's a child.

Now the leviathans may not know what a ship is exactly, but they can definitely understand that in most cases things technology = precursors. As far as they understand, a metal deathtrap not unlike the old labs or caches fell alongside several metallic eggs, with the emerging hatchlings misshapen and not living long.

But then there's the egg that landed in the shallows, which at first they thought was empty. But a hatchling- much smaller than the previous ones- emerges, a day later than the rest, but they're alive even if their swimming is all wobbly! It's so tiny, and obviously hatched too early with the strange split tail and how it keeps swimming to the surface for air, and they have to protect it! Now if only the little hatchling would answer their calls and not dart into hiding spots whenever they approach...

Honestly this is up to the writer lol, but I like to think that Danny's ghost form, when he finally manages to achieve it again, goes a little naga-esque. Almost like a sea snake instead of just a whispy ghost tail, which while better for swimming doesn't help his freak out over most ghost powers still not working.

Danny is just trying to survive man, maybe find other survivors, turn off this big alien gun, stop creating frost crystals when he sneezes, the usual. He doesn't need giant humanoid-esque leviathan-sized sea creatures poking around!
