Have Maddie's parents and Tom's mom met the boys yet?

Yep! (At least in my mind they did)

Tom’s mom was already frantic when she saw her son on the news in movie 1 and as a result was a bit trepidatious when he finally explained why and that he and Maddie had taken Sonic in. She had always wanted grandkids, especially bc her older two sons never had any. Now all of a sudden this fuzzy blue alien caused her son a whole lot of grief and then moved into his house/cost him his job in San Francisco. However, after a few visits and with her overwhelming need to coddle taking over, she becomes a great grammy. She loses her MIND when Tails showed up especially bc “that boy is a BABY”💖

Maddie’s parents were a bit more instantly accepting of all three kids, having seen some seriously wacky stuff in their days as both a park ranger and news writer respectively. They were a bit more unphased and had a more “this might as well happen” attitude about it. They’ve always known their son in law and especially their daughter are driven by the desire to help those in need. Maddie’s dad is actually just relieved the “blue devil” exists (he was a low key believer from minute one and was one of the only others in town to give Crazy Carl the light of day). Tom feels like he’s going crazy bc “it was easier for your parents to accept you adopting three alien fuzzball kids but they still give me the side eye as your husband of 13 years???”.

All three grandparents spoil them rotten eventually.

Robotnik is the most relatable character in the franchise because I too would only be emotionally vulnerable if I knew I was going to explode immediately afterwards

That, they are :)

[At the Robotnik-Stone house. The doorbell rings. It rings again. Shadow comes out of his room and sees Rouge lying on the couch watching TV and Robotnik in the kitchen making a sandwich.] Shadow [sarcastic]: Don’t bother to open the door, I’ve got it. Rouge and Robotnik: We know. [Shadow rolls his eyes. Opens the door, finding Sonic out of breath from pushing an armchair.] Shadow [blushes]: Oh, Sonic, hello. Sonic [smiling]: Hi. I brought the couch Mum talked to Stone about. [huffs]: Sorry, the elevator's not working. Shadow [drags it inside easily]: You could have called me. It's okay, I’ll bring it in. Rouge: What's this??? How nice! [gets up] Shadow: Oh, now you can get on your feet. Rouge: Well, of course. Is it for us??? Sonic: Yup. Rouge: Aw, I love you endlessly, Blue!!! Let me introduce it to the rest of the furniture. This is the old couch, the old sofa, the old TV, the old table, Eggman the old. Although that's redundant. Sonic and Shadow [hold back laughter] Robotnik: Ha ha. I don’t know why we have to keep that thing taking up space when we already have our little armchair that’s perfectly molded to our butts. Rouge: It’s a massage armchair! And I call dibs-- Robotnik [runs, pushes Rouge, and falls into the chair. Points to the old one]: Throw that nasty crap in the trash. Sonic: Look, it works like-- Robotnik [growls] Sonic: Damn! Shadow: Ivo, let him explain! Sonic: Never mind, here, the instruction manual. I don’t want to catch rabies… Robotnik: Instruction manual? You offend me, hedgehog. [turns on the chair and relaxes]: Oh, this is so good, now I won’t even have to chew… Rouge: Aw, Ivo, let me try it for a while! Shadow: I want to try too. Robotnik [holds the remote tightly]: Eeeeh! Sit on the washing machine, it’s ten years old and spinning! This is mine! Rouge: I'm gonna tell Stone! [leaves the house angrily] Robotnik: Look at me shaking. [cackles]: Hahaha, get it? I’m shaking… Sonic and Shadow: … Robotnik: Bah, this generation has no sense of humour.

I love the idea of Tom and/or Maddie getting up at the asscrack of dawn to start coffee and breakfast, and they hear a little blip by the counter and just automatically hand it coffee beans. Shadow just sits on the counter and sleepily munches them while they get everything going.

Which also, I imagine he probably never bothers to put his gloves on first thing in the morning (maybe socks if its winter). And at least Knuckles and Tails at first were so "OH MY GOD. Dont sit in the kitchen naked!!! What is wrong with you? Its bad enough you sleep like that." and Shadow was so incredibly confused. He looked down at himself, looked at them, then looked at Maddie and Tom for help because none of this was making sense.

Sonic understands the glove thing, but he was only on Mobius for a short time so it also just doesn't bother him as much, he finds it pretty funny. He definitely had a good laugh before explaining it to Shadow.

Shadow thinks it's so dumb that he wears his gloves even less for weeks until they stop being weird about it. At one point he even shoved his bare hand in Knuckles face, which definitely led to a scuffle and Maddie spraying them with a water bottle.

YEAR OF THE ECHIDNA - SWEET

Me? Late? Never. @year-of-the-echidna

characters: knuckles, sonic, tails

contains: implied disordered eating— nothing too bad I think? err. straying from the theme a little

Tails and Knuckles both had food issues when they came to the Wachowski Household. With Tails living there, Sonic had been helping him trust the fridge a little more. Knuckles... well, Knuckles was at least there sometimes?

read on ao3 here!

"I've heard of these!" Awed, Tails leans forward to inspect the little lollipop. He turns to Sonic with big, excited eyes, asking, "Is the stick really edible?"

"If you're not a coward," Sonic responds, flashing him a smile. He's an expert at this older brother thing.

"Can I..." Tails' ears flatten, tails twisting together nervously. His voice breaks off into a whisper, "have one?"

Sonic hands him two, with a big wink. And, glancing over his shoulder at the echidna at the table, grabs a third. "Here, Knux!"

Knuckles... was having a little more trouble adjusting to Earth. Tails knew everything there was to know and lacked only in actual experience. Knuckles just lacked. (Sonic couldn't help but think about how strange that was. He'd been on Earth for almost eight years— how hadn't Knuckles shown up sooner?)

All that to say: Knuckles looks at the lollipop and then back up at Sonic like he's not sure what to do with it. Because he probably doesn't.

"It's candy," Sonic tries. Knuckles sort of just looks at it some more. "I... have other flavors, if you want?"

"Oh." Knuckles blinks. "It is for me?"

It takes every ounce of focus to not sass him. No, I just set it in front of you for fun?? Sonic nudges the sucker a little closer. "Yeah, dude. The wrapper can be kinda—"

Knuckles chomps the head right off, wrapper and all.

"Okay. Well." Sonic stammers, mouth opening and closing a few times. "That works!"

...

Tails had familiarized himself with the Wachowski household a little more. He was still skittish, terrified of every movement Tom and Maddie made, but at least he had started trusting the food in the fridge.

Knuckles hadn't. Sonic wasn't entirely sure where he slept or ate, but it wasn't at the house. He stopped by every once in a while, but that was it. When they set him out a plate, he didn't touch it.

Standing in the doorway, Sonic and Tails watch the echidna watch his food.

"Does he think it's gonna get him?" Sonic jokes, voice soft.

"No," Tails responds, genuinely. "I— I think he's guarding it? Look at how he's sitting."

Sonic screws up his face and considers. Sure enough... watchful eyes, tight shoulders, fidgeting hands. He keeps glancing around like he's waiting for something.

("Oh. Is this for me?")

Tails had had trouble with getting his own food at first, too. Scared he would be punished for taking some, because he wasn't used to it being for him.

Sonic lets out a little puff of breath. "Okay. Yeah. That's a problem." He puts on his best wasn't-just-eavesdropping face and trots into the kitchen, popping into a chair like he owns the place.

"Are you not hungry?" Sonic asks, smiling easily.

Knuckles glances down at the plate and then up at him suspiciously. "I am," he responds carefully.

Oh man. With how certainly the echidna carried himself, Sonic had almost forgotten that he for sure had issues too. "That's for you, y'know."

"It is?"

"That's why Mom gave it to you," Sonic says. He tries to look casual and not as exasperated-slash-concerned as he is.

"Oh." Knuckles inspects the plate for a long moment; Sonic suspects it's less about the plate and more about avoiding eye contact.

Trying to play it lightly, leaning on the table, Sonic asks, "Does that happen a lot? People putting plates in front of you and telling you not to eat it?"

"Yes." Knuckles does not play it lightly, because apparently that's not a setting Knuckles has. Sonic winces. "I... have done nothing to earn this."

Sonic scrunches his face. "You don't have to earn food here."

The echidna scoffs. He sniffs at the food like he trusts it less now that he knows it's for him. Hm. Not great. He cautiously picks up a piece of lettuce like he's worried it'll bite him back.

Sonic chews on his lip. "Do you, uh... want... me to taste it?" He puts back on his nonchalant face and leans on the table. "Y'know, quality control."

"No," Knuckles gruffly retorts, taking a bite, "if there is poison meant for me, it will certainly kill you."

"Okay, well, Mom's not gonna poison you." Sonic... sort of understands, though? Crazy Carl had trapped food for him once and he hadn't trusted anything for, like, weeks.

Knuckles... seemed like the kind of guy who would hold a grudge against all food forever if something like that happened. Well. At least he was eating. They could work on the comfort part bit by bit.

"I can still test it, if you want," Sonic hums, definitely not because he's a little hungry.

"You're certain it isn't tampered with," Knuckles asks, sort of, voice flat but very obviously asking for reassurance.

"One hundred percent!" Sonic makes a show of looking chill as he makes himself a plate. He turns away from the echidna for just a moment, and when he turns back, the plate is empty.

The hedgehog lets one (1) incredulous laugh escape him. "Jeez! Trying to give me a run for my money as fastest thing in the world, huh?"

Still chewing, Knuckles looks up at him, almost... guilty, maybe? Like he hadn't super wanted Sonic to see. Hmmm. Maybe he was...embarassed? About eating in front of people?

"Impressive," the hedgehog hums, bouncing from heel to toe. He takes Knuckles' plate so he can turn away again without suspicion. "Just don't make yourself sick, dude."

"I was not trying to..." Knuckles stops, starts, starts again. "I— I was hungry."

Sonic scrunches up his face, musing over the dishes.

"Um, nobody's gonna take it away, if that's what you're worried about," Tails interjects— Sonic for sure does not startle at all, he had definitely remembered that Tails was there. "I was worried about that, too. But it's okay. You can eat what you want," the fox says slowly.

Sonic turns back around, glancing between his buddies. Knuckles still doesn't look convinced. Tails looks like he's a little bit worried Knuckles is gonna blow him up with his mind. To be fair, Sonic would be scared of that too, if Knuckles could blow people up with his mind.

The echidna stands. "You could not take it from me," he says, in a gravely serious voice that screams 'people have tried.' And then he's gone.

Sonic clicks his tongue. "Well. At least he ate?"

[appendingfic]

"How do Shadow and Knuckles plan to drive from Montana to Washington without anyone noticing two aliens driving a pickup truck?" I think it's important to remind the reader occasionally that for all they are super-powered aliens they are also teenagers and thus every idea they have has at least one fatal flaw which dooms the entire enterprise.

[butterflyscribbles]

I can only imagine how Tom and Maddie must've reacted to learning that Sonic saw the proposal

I have so many thoughts about this you have no idea. Baby Sonic had only been on earth maybe a week when he first saw them. He was at the time stowed away in a tiny cave by a creek where the proposal happened.

He had to shove himself into the furthest point away from the opening not to be seen because Tom unknowingly set up camp right near the entrance of his cave but he couldn’t help it…he peeked (and may or may not have snatched a single hot dog while they were asleep).

They seemed….so happy. It was the closest he had been to people yet but he got his first glimpse of what humanity was like through them.

the light shines, even though the star is gone...

[grieving-angel-hopeful-demon]

Apparently people are in consensus that it's Aban?

Alright 👍

What do you think Agent Stone's first name is? I'm thinking about going with Adam or Abel. Don't know, but it should definitely start with A.

[superscourge]
