The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog

The Captain goes down with his ship, and yet, he's still got style!

Next - Locksmith Shadow >

I've been really wanting to draw Sonic in his captain's outfit from this game, and I finally got around to it! This was supposed to be posing practice, but.. I kind of got carried away and just went with a simple color-styled sketch with his captain's outfit. Hehe Actually pretty happy with this. :)

*No Stealing* Thank you!

In the multiverse, everything is canon!

Yeah, we don't talk about THAT stuff, though.

What if Amy Rose had her own spin off??

With the release of Princess Peach: Showtime has got me thinking…imagine if we had gotten that similar experience for our fav pink hedgehog Amy Rose? Sure, you could make the argument that due to the bad reception of Shadow The Hedgehog (2005) when it was released indicated that Sega was not going to make any more sonic spin off games in the future (though I will defend that game for the entirety of my living existence because I whole heartedly loved it) but theoretically it could be a great concept to bring back because you could do so much with each character.

But in this case, I want to talk about the many ways of what I personally think could work if Amy had a spin off game.

1. Good Character Writing

Over the course of the Sonic franchise, there have been many interpretations of Amy some range from very bad to very good if you know what I’m talking about. If you want an in depth discussion of Amy’s evolution throughout the years read @ratrrriot post they do a great job of explaining it better than I ever could. But basically in short terms: showcase her love and compassion but is a fierce determined hero and willing to stand up for the people whom she cares about but retain both her bad qualities such as her stubbornness and so it would make feel more grounded and like a real person.

2. An Open World Format

Sonic Frontiers was a definite refresher for the format of Sonic games. The open world really helped how the open world is a great fit for Sonic games show casing how alive the star fall islands were and immersive gameplay experience can be. I know some people were mixed on that aspect but personally it was a welcome addition that helped with the story. In my mind, Amy would be going on her adventure led by her tarot cards as well as expanding her horizons and come across this magical and unknown land associated with love and kindness (one of Amy’s defining traits). The land would like some fantasy/ fairy tale inspired world with each level being more beautiful than the last and in a sense still being rooted into Sonic’s world with creative lore but with a girly twist on it one of the many things that definitely defines who Amy is and that some of the locations/ levels within the game could be off real life places or folklore.

3. Story

Sonic Frontiers and to an extent The Murder of Sonic The Hedgehog were praised for being the first Sonic games in years to have a good story probably since Sonic and the Black Knight. Definitely can work if they have good writers. Amy would be in the game for obvious but maybe two or three more friends along for the ride too but having them be in the story instead of them just being in the background like Cream, Blaze and Silver or something? Have them develop into by Amy had impacted them in so many ways and how they want to return the offer. Explain how the fantasy world in the game came to be, the culture of it and their way of living, sacred treasures they may hold to keep the world in balance. Introduce characters from the fantasy world so you would feel more invested into the journey and having one of the inhabitants be the main antagonist an trusted ally to the team.

3. Costume Upgrades

Amy has had some very cute outfits upgrades most notably in Sonic Dash or Sonic Forces Speed Battle but you would have to unlock the outfits doing certain tasks or completing each level zones in the game that also help progress the narrative feeling as that they are essential. Again it doesn’t have to be the case but it would be a cool feature to have be put in the game as well as her friends getting costume upgrades too.

Again, this isn’t trying to force the game if it would happen. It’s just me ranting some of my ideas if an Amy Rose spin off game were to actually happen but I doubt it’ll be the case any time soon.

My Synopsis of names of the world in the game, the levels/ zones it can contain and what it would look like;

Location of the Story: The Petula Isles

Levels/ Zones:

Valley of Love:

Dreamy Skyline:

Crittered Cove:

Wintered Wonderland:

Jubokko Forest:

Crystal Caves:

Link to @ratrrriot’s post on Amy’s Evolution:

[cabinet-man-colors]

(ID: four drawings of sonic characters, each in their outfits from the murder of sonic the hedgehog.

The first drawing is of Amy, who is looking up at the sky and resting one hand on her hammer, and shielding her eyes with the other. the background is simplistic clouds, a sun, and grass beneath her.

the second drawing is of Espio, who is posing dramatically with one hand raised and the other to his chest. beneath him is wooden floor and beside him are the red curtains of a stage.

the third drawing is of Shadow, who is slouching and glaring at the viewer. he has one hand in his pocket, and is standing on tiled floor with a board of keys behind him.

the last drawing is of Tails, who is excitedly leaning forward with his hands near his chest. behind him is several newspaper articles and pictures, connected with red yarn. he is stood on a wooden floor. End ID.)

i was working on making all of these guys and i was gonna post them then, but i decided i wanted to show them off now in case i dont get around to finishing sonic, knuckles, and vector..

Autistic Study of Shadow the Hedgehog

I'm not a professional in any way. I am officially diagnosed with Autism and ADHD (along with others 🦝✨️). I just want to talk about the autistic traits that Shadow shows because he's my favorite, and I relate with him the most. Also, this is just based on my observations, and it is just my opinion. I'm open to talking about this! /gen 🙂

!Minor Spoiler Warning for Murder of Shadow the Hedgehog! In between pictures of him with the green outfit and Shadow with Werehog Sonic

So, let's get started!

First off, Shadow tends to come off as harsh, blunt, and cold. Though to him, he's usually just being honest or genuinely doesn't want to interact with someone. Some autistic people can have a cold or monotone voice when they talk. And some (like me) come off as harsh or blunt when just being honest about things. I've been told about how some things can come off as rude when being honest about them. Which I can kind of understand. Especially as my friends have helped me practice and understand better. Honesty still feels like the best option, personally.

He remembers little details (this is besides all of the amnesia folks). In Murder of Sonic The Hedgehog, Shadow remembers that Amy loves the band Hot Honey. I know there was another example of this in another game, but I can't remember what it was.

Also, the way Shadow struggles with the computer is so relatable. Learning new things is something I struggle with, too. Even if it's something simple. 😪

Also, in the Murder of Sonic, we get to see him interacting with other characters in a much "calmer" and "relaxed" setting. He doesn't seem to interact with anyone unless he has to.

Shadow, even when having amnesia, is very sure of himself. Nothing can deter him from being himself. Even in the face of evil like Black Doom. He's not easily swayed by others. (Except by Maria 🥲).

He also can get hyperfixated on something and won't stop until he sees it to the end. I also relate to it because I can get hyperfixated on things so much that I ignore anything going on around me, and I can neglect my own needs like eating and drinking.

Some of this could be due to him being created by Gerald Robotnik and because he didn't really have anyone to socialize with besides the professor and Maria. But in the anime that leads up to Sonic X Shadow generations, we can see he's always been like this, and this is likely just his personality and traits. Now, he does seem to get more angry and have some major PTSD issues after the incident on the ark. This could explain why some of his traits become more prominent.

Overall, I love Shadow as a whole. I can't wait to dive even deeper into his lore. I can't wait for the Sonic 3 movie! Not only because my boy Shadow is in it but also because we get to see all the characters interacting.

Feel free to leave comments on this topic because I'd love to hear what y'all think about Shadow and his autistic traits.

I know I've heard people refer to Sonic and Shadow as the ADHD & Autism duo. So maybe I'll make another post about Sonic with his ADHD traits.

Much love! 💜🦔

[biolizardboils]

heres a semi-liveblog i did while playing The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog! spoilers under the cut (both for this game and Frontiers!)

“We designed the difficulty of the THINK levels for experienced Sonic fans [...]” finally...a worthy opponent

look at this cute little new employee!! im naming them Barry like in the trailer. them and the Forces Avatar just need one more member and they can form Team Self-Insert!

the Conductor is a big doggy!! oh hes retiring aww,

The Mirage Express, huh? i thought i saw a place that looked like Mirage Saloon in the traileSPAGONIA MENTION!!

okay im not gonna say the menu’s instant ramen is absolutely a reference to the 06 fandub, but i struggle to imagine what else it could be

so they eat Pickies, but eating Cluckies is apparently too far? filing this under Important Lore Implications /j

everyone’s outfits aaaaa;;;;

IT’S AMY’S BIRTHDAY!!! CONGRATS GIRL I LOVE YOUR CAKE HEADBAND AND FUR BOA

“(Why can’t I be normal for one second...)” Barry calm down, your unorthodox yet charming response got you a wink and thumbs up from Sonic the fucking Hedgehog! id be over the moon if i was you

someone already left their ticket in a napkin holder, can’t have shit on my first day

Important notes on Barry: is intimidated by Knuckles, Espio, and Shadow, is Sparkle Gelatin Buddies with Tails, somehow cannot recognize Sonic in the flesh, and bows for royalty like Blaze

Wait... the train's robot arms look like something Eggman would make... Mr. Conductor sir...?

Why is Butcher!Vector stationed in the library and not like, the kitchen lol. And also why’d he and Espio leave Charmy at home

Amy proceeds to explain the rules of Among Us

Tails is disqualified from being the murderer, for he is both Detective and Babey

At long last... the token evil Flicky

uhh why’s the train shaking

DID WE CRASH??

Amy refusing a chance to use her hammer...?

the stick behind her was def her hammer’s handle, wonder how it broke

how on earth can a Crack on A Shelf fit in someone’s inventory

how did that minigame help Barry think of an argument dfghj

oh the hammer she broke was a Great Value backup, thank god

the dead Sonic illustration still sends me hwoling sdfghj

i muted the game to play this real quick and now im laughing even harder

wait sonic can talk but he’s numb and can’t move. no longer laughing

he’s got wounds?? and NO PULSE??? oh my god theyre actually fucking doing it

TITLE DROP?? YOURE TELLING ME THE GAME DIDNT START UNTIL JUST NOW??

what did Omochao do to warrant a wanted poster

Not Knuckles using Ye Olde English for his Sherriff rolefghjk

Omochao is wanted for medical malpractice??? sure why not

okay im gonna stop logging everything and just play for a bit. will type again if something REALLY funny or shocking happens

ooh the bg changed in the Think minigame! reminds me of Earthbound

everybody’s leaving they gotdam post, can’t have shit with this group

id let Barry tell me all about caves

all the options to get rid of the bomb gdsffhgjhkj thank god it wasn’t ACTUALLY a bomb

got caught up in the game but aaaa i hope Amy and Shadow have fun at the Hot Honey concerttt

the blowdart in the conductor’s car... what is it filled with, i wonder... a paralyzing agent... or poison

HE’S STILL PARALYZED/DEAD OH NO... the game didnt give me the option to tell anyone about him but i still feel like an asshole aaaa

aaand now im laughing again SFDGHJ Amy what do you MEAN by that????

wow, im actually not sure who did it! the robot arm was specifically sliced through, so i imagine it was someone who could do that without a weapon. Vector could’ve bitten it, and Shadow could’ve used Chaos Spear... neither of those culprits seem right to me, but it’s all i got

ESPIO. idk how he did the slicing cus his shurikens wouldve been confiscated but he can camouflage why didnt i think of that

okay the camouflage didnt even come up in the accusation but still

SONIC’S ALIVE YAY

can you imagine if he’d said this when Mephiles killed him bhkvads

I FUCKING KNEW IT. TRAIN’S HAUNTED

wait the token evil Flicky is real AND relevant to the narrative??

oh thats legitimately creepy

oh thats even worse (even tho i still think hes eggman in disguise)

okay ngl id have followed these instructions to the letter too. its an autism thing, your honor

TRAIN’S GONNA KILL US OKAY

I’M BACK IN THE DINING CAR WITH SONIC, HI SONIC!!! WE’RE GONNA DIE BUT ILU

holy cow i can’t believe there’s STILL more to do?? the production values....

SONIC NEVER GOT TO SEE THE PRETTY VIEWS NOOOO;;

E  G  G

eggman has no tolerance for self-insert oc’s :pensive:

it’s canon now that Badniks have competitive wages sdfghj

oh no Barry... your self-deprecating dialogue options are worrying me buddy...

!!!PEP TALK??? SET TO IT DOESN’T MATTER V2???

Sonic my best friend Sonic.....you’re right. we can do this

so between this and Frontiers i think this decade’s gimmick is gonna be “silly minigame actually prepares you for the final challenge”

“Don’t teleport us to the future!” Barry how did you correctly guess an event that happened in a destroyed timeline

Ohhh the Train’s mad that the Conductor’s retiring isn’t it?? lemme just plug a video real quick kjhgfdsa

IM FIGHTING THE ACTUAL TRAIN NOW OH MY GOD

this is fucking TOUGH HELP

THAT LAST PART TOOK ME LIKE 20 TRIES AAAAACK

“Your happiness comes at the expense of others. Last I checked, that’s called being selfish.” Tell ‘em, Sonic

100 rings??? have mercy

FINALLY HOLY SHIT

ESPIO SAVES THE FLICKY TO ATONE FOR HIS CRIMES

WAIT DID AMY BLOW THE TRAIN UP WITH EVERYONE INSIDE??

awww;;

oh no Train......

AAAWWW;;

god Barry’s been flabbergasted by this group the whole game dfghjk. is that how civilians tend to think of them? cus its hilarious

nobody even ate?? Barry didnt even get to do his ONE job mndbhksa

SONIC FINALLY BOUGHT THE CAKE YAYYY

“To the confident, unshakable, and radiant Amy Rose!” WAAAAAUGHG;;

WAIT WHAT ,BVJKSFHL??

“...And that’s the story of how I met Sonic and his friends. Entangled in their lives for a fleeting moment, and then back to things as they were.” Living the dream, huh, Barry? I mean, besides being jobless again

oh wait we can choose their epilogue!! i made them stick with the job, practice their singing, and manage to fly to space. as a treat

holy shit that was WAY longer than i was expecting!! every aspect of this was exquisite--scenario, art, characterization, jokes, gameplay challenge?? holy shit

oh hey i guess some people got that Sonic Lore job after all!! congrats to them too!!

I think the moral of this is that sometimes the best April Fools’ jokes are the ones played completely straight, with much more than a simple lie behind them. and also don’t trust trains

[marasiatheferret]

I was looking for idea to draw these gay in someones outfits and Remember this one Sonic game (The murder of Sonic the Hedgehog [this game is free in steam] ) and this hit me, I can draw them in Sonic's and Shadow's outfits from this game! So I draw them.

Smg3 wearing as Shadow Barista

Smg4 wearing as Sonic Captain (I fucked up this drawing a little)

(Sorry for my writing skills I was in school this time).

Hope you everyone like this + the murder of Sonic the Hedgehog fans too!

"Can you cling into walls" "i most certainly can" okay just tell the conductor that, I'll now know where to find you then. In the air vents.

"Do you sell gift bags here" ….. shadow you didn't forget to bring Amy a present her birthday party right?

"You don't need to bow everytime you see me" sure Blaze it's not like i was stress responding. definitely.(seriously tho i love her dialogues)

Okay imma take a gamble and ask shadow if he sees any tickets 

"Only three items on the menu..? You don't even have drinks listed" THAT'S WHAT I WAS SAYING!!! Also we only have like three drinks too, water, coffee, and chaos cola

"I'll have to take you up on the coffee soon. Just the beans and A spoon, though" …… shadow um what??? WHAT DO YOU MEAN BEANS AND A SPOON ONLY YOU HOT TOPIC WANNABE??? NOT EVEN WATER OR MILK???

"You got lucky, but the next time I find you, you're not getting from me next time! - Rekrap to his victims that managed to escape from him.

Lore: It is unknown where he came from or how he was created, but he might be some sort of shadow demon that took the form of Parker and called himself, Parker.exe.

Some people call him Rekrap, which is Parker spelled backwards and he took the pleasure of kidnapping innocent victims at night when they play videogames like Super Mario or Sonic the Hedgehog.

When the victim gets dragged into the digital world, they will eventually meet up with Rekrap that wants to play some games with him and if they win, they can escape from him. 

If they lose, however, they will get killed by the demon with his trusty neat cleaver and they will spend an eternity as his slave to help find more victims to collect more souls.

If you manage to escape from him, don't get too cocky that you made it out in one piece, he's still out there and will find you once again for another round and he won't stop until he finally gets you and kills you in cold blood.

Fun Facts: He's a huge fan of Super Mario Games and idolizes the red plumber himself, which is why his outfit is blood red and black to be like his exe counterpart, Mario.exe.

He's also like Mario Madness and is very patient about waiting for the V2 update, but hates people attempting leaking to leak the mod, sabotage the mod or even constantly trying to ask them when the mod update is coming out.

His favorite Mario Video Games are Super Mario Odyssey, Mario Party, Mario Kart and of course, Super Mario 64.

His favorite food is a Pepperoni Pizza with Mushrooms and his favorite drink is Coffee with half sugar and cream.

He literally hates Racist Mario and he will do anything to murder him in case he tries to ruin another race in Mario Kart or when he tries to cause mayhem and destruction in his world.

There's a wavy brown background and Shadow is framed by a diagonal green rectangle covered in a rust or blood splatter-like pattern.

Second image: Tails, dressed in his detective outfit (brown plaid jacket and fedora) with the main character of TMOSTH (a dark magenta quokka with green eyes, dressed in a concierge uniform) standing over a trash can. The quokka is crying because the trash can is empty, and Tails looks unamused.

Shadows of the New Beginning

“‎Though nobody can go back and make a new beginning… Anyone can start over and make a new ending.” 

― Chico Xavier

There had been a time once, back in the early days of Overwatch, that Jack couldn’t imagine anything worse than the Omnic Crisis. Despite all their efforts, the death toll continued to rise, civilians and soldiers alike. Then there were the rumors of spies infiltrating Overwatch, the backlash of multiple international governments, Gerard and Amelie, Ana – oh, God, Ana – dying in that fateful mission. 

The Jack Morrison of the past nearly buckled from the heartache of Ana’s death.

As if losing one of his best friends, his advisor, his confidant, a woman he’s fought side by side with for decades, wasn’t enough – then came the Swiss explosion. That explosion had taken everything. It confirmed that Talon had been successful, that traitors had been in their midst, and the end of Jack Morrison and Gabriel Reyes.

Jack became Soldier 76 once more. Gabriel became Reaper. How ironic, how tragic: the golden commander turned bitter vigilante; the charismatic commander turned vindictive Talon operative. 

Or so he, and everyone else, had thought. 

Of course, not everything was as it seemed. Jack had thought himself so clever – so cunning – to fake his own death and masquerade as a (not wholly) different identity. Then Gabe and Ana returned to his life, somehow both alive, and doing the exact same shit he was doing.

(“To be fair,” Ana had said, after their truths had come out and the silence lasted for five solid awkward minutes. “I faked my death first. So really Jack, you and Gabriel were copying me, as always.

“How is it copying when neither of us knew you were alive?!”

Gabriel just looked irritated. “I was the only one who actually had a double identity. Ana just disappeared and Jack – Jack you literally took our old SEP soldier names and expected no one to connect the dots. Really." 

"I didn’t think there was anyone left who could recognize Soldier 76.” Jack retorted. “Besides, at least I don’t go around wearing a black overcoat and a skeleton mask.”

“This outfit is amazing and you fucking know it.”

Ana just laughed in his face.)

That memory, while certainly bittersweet, was a precious one held close to his heart. It had been the beginning of reconciliation. Both for himself and for the world.

“Are you ever going to go to sleep?”

Involuntarily, Jack smiles. Like a lovelorn fool, a besotted old man, helpless to the sound of Gabriel’s voice. 

“Eventually,” Jack says, turning to lay on his side in order to face his lover. “I was just reminiscing.”

Gabriel hums, then shifts from his side of the bed to look at the clock over Jack’s shoulder. “…It’s 4:23am.” he deadpans. “What the hell." 

Ah. Perhaps he had gotten too caught up in memories…Not that he’d admit that. 

"Well, you know me” Jack says airily. “I live for the night. For the cover of darkness, the terror of the shadows, the stealth–”

“Oh my god – you’re never letting that go are you?!" 

"That was the funniest, most edgy-lord briefing you’ve ever given me.”

“It’s pronounded "edgelord.”“

"You even know the terms,” Jack says fondly. Gabriel kicks him viciously in the shins.

Jack laughed, rolling quickly towards his lover, before he could even react, to give him a swift kiss on the cheek. It was a little weird given how disfigured Gabe’s face was due to the nanites and decay, but Jack had quickly found himself uncaring so long as he had Gabe.

Gabriel grumbled, caught off-guard by Jack’s speed. “It’s bullshit that you can move at sonic speeds like that for a man in his late 50s.”

Amused, Jack said, “Yet you still look better than me, and you’re 59 now.”

“Don’t remind me.”

“About your age or about how good you still look, even when strongly resembling Shadow the Hedgehog?”

Gabriel stared at him. 

“I,” Gabriel began, black smoke curling around his body. “am definitely going to murder you.”

“I suppose that’s one way to get me to sleep.”

“This is where I finish you, Sonic.”

And so, Sonic the Hedgehog freed himself of his Soldier 76 cosplay and godsped towards the horizon – all the while with Shadow ~shadowing~ his steps, still in his Reaper cosplay.

The End.

halloween special

Halloween was one of Splash the Wolf’s favorite holidays of the year. She loved the candy, the parties, the scares, and the games. She loved everything about it.

And she really hoped this Halloween was gonna be a good one.

“Aaah-this? No, too flashy-this? AH, nope, too-why do I even own a Shadow costume!?”

Splash ran from closet to mirror and back again, trying to find the perfect outfit for her and Sonic’s date. A Halloween date.

She was unable to even think about it without blushing.

After a few more attempts, she flopped down on her bed, defeated. She had lost. She was a failu-

Wait. Wait a second.

She had an idea.

It was a good idea, too.

Splash jumped back up, and in one swift motion, grabbed a blue dress that went down to just below her hips, a red blazer, and those red boots she was very fond of.

In an instant, she was somehow fully clothed, and stood in front of the mirror to check herself out. Triumphantly, she smirked and folded her arms.

“Perfect! I knew I should wear my usual outfit! It’s perfect!”

With that, the wolf sped out of her bedroom and out the front door towards the park that her and Sonic were going to meet at, a smile on her face.

To her surprise, Splash was the first to arrive, so she sat down on a bench and watched people pass by in their costumes, bags full of treats and grins on their faces. It warmed her heart to see so much joy. She truly loved Halloween so much, mainly because of how happy it seemed to make everyone around her.

A shout snapped her out of her thoughts.

“Hey! Hello! Sorry I’m late!”

Splash turned her head to face the blue hedgehog racing towards her spot, before he skidded to a stop right in front of her.

“Are you ready to go now?”

“Gaaaahhhaaah.”

I’m going to pause for a moment and inform you that our dear little Splash did not have a stroke, nor a heart attack, and nothing was wrong with her health at all, in fact. She was just fine, and she did not have to be rushed to the emergency room. Don’t worry.

Sonic was just wearing a suit and some false fangs, that’s all.

The thing was, Sonic looked really, really handsome in a suit. And the fangs only made it worse (which actually meant it made it so much better.)

The girl could tell that Sonic himself knew he looked amazing, and that he intended to make that as clear as possible, too.

Although she felt like she was dying, Splash managed to croak out a single sentence, her ears twitching erratically.

“Whhh-what are-what are you wearing?”

“Oh, this?”

Sonic peered down at himself in mock confusion, smirked, and smoothed his jacket out. “I thought I should dress up for the occasion! Since it’s Halloween, and we’re gonna go on a date! What, do ya like what ya see?” he said with a wink.

Sonic was trying to kill her. Sonic was trying to murder his own…his own…friend.

The wolf in front of him only wobbled in her seat, and let out another incoherent noise in response.

“Hhhhhaagggaghhhhh.”

Sonic’s expression shifted to one of worry, and he placed his hand atop Splash’s forehead. “Hey, are you okay? Am I-is this all too much for you to-”

“No. Not at all. Y-you, uh,” the wolf stammered, “You look really good. Really nice. I, haah, like the, um, fangs. Neat touch. G-good fangs.”

As she finished that sentence, she began fanning herself with her hands in an attempt to cool herself down, smiling sheepishly.

Sonic’s cheeks flushed, and he frowned. “Oh, are the fangs too much? I think the fangs might be too-”

“NOPE! Please don’t take them off!” Splash shrieked, clapping her hands together, the hedgehog jolting in surprise. “They aren’t too much at all, Sonic! You look perfect, I swear! Absolutely wonderful!”

Splash jumped up from her seat and slung her arm around her…friend’s shoulder, seemingly back to normal.

She winked at him, red-faced and all.

“Alrighty then! Let’s get this party started!”

Sonic winked back and poked the wolf’s cheek.

“Sure thing, buddy.”

[ID: several digital drawings from The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog. From left to right:

Shadow in his outfit sitting on a the green train ledge, one hand over his knee and the other on his cheek. He looks casual and he looks over, with a question mark textbox. Next to him is the reference image from the game in the conductor cabin.

Next is Sonic and Espio in their outfits, Sonic teasingly asking "... a BLOWDART though?" with Espio sweating and reproaching "oh, would you PLEASE let it go... !!!"

Next is Amy and Knuckles in their outfits. Amy has sparkles in her eyes and around her, and a thumb and index finger are under her chin. She confidently says "This is just like in DANGANRONPA!". Knuckles responds, in cowboy, "Doggone what now?"

Next are two panels, with the main character asking Amy, who is holding her face with her hands "Oh! Did someone bring a cake?" and Amy excitedly clasps her hands responding "Yes! That was SONIC'S job!". Sonic's ears peek out, his name grabbing his attention. Sonic now looks towards the side at a wall and he's whistling, while Amy smiles at him and says "Haha Sonic why did you turn to look at the wall?".
