#sonic is annoying XD

[psychictimestone]

Feeling a lil bit silly tonight 🤭

[skimmingmilk]

ooo now i'm curious, tell us more about drift! 👀

i'm assuming, like his name implies, he "drifts" around and just does whatever he wants?

You got it! Drift's name came from a couple of things. First, it's the game mechanic when you take tight corners while boosting as Sonic xD But also, it can mean being carried along by the wind or water, so fitting for a pirate world and also compatible with Sails's name :) And then the big thing is that he's so adrift in his own life. Just completely and utterly directionless.

Drift lives alone on an island in the middle of No Place. He can't swim, so he's not about to go live a life on the open seas. Most of the planet is under water, with scattered islands spread out across the ocean.

Now, he doesn't let it bother him! He doesn't need much, his island is lush and peaceful. It's okay that he can't really run anywhere, the island's not that big, he can cross it in less than fifteen minutes just walking. He likes living life worry-free, without a care in the world. He naps in hammocks all day long, plays his guitar, and eats seaweed salads and drinks out of coconuts xD He has absolutely no drive to do anything. No purpose. No point. And he's happy. He doesn't care that he's stuck in one place because his island is beautiful and he's alone! No one telling him what to do, no one expecting anything of him. It's just him, nature, and peace.

This probably doesn't sound too bad, right? Except, it's Sonic. An aimless Sonic who sees absolutely nothing wrong with lying on a beach all day, every day, alone, forever. He's Sonic's carefree nature dialed up to the point where he couldn't care less. Without anything to run towards, he doesn't run at all. Without anything to live for, he's not even really living.

He's also very talkative despite being alone. Drift got the whole slice of the talking pie xD Sharp might have a sharp tongue, but he also isn't compelled to say everything that's on his mind and Bur (originally Snare, but I think Bur works better for his character, like the little spiky seed balls that get stuck on clothes or in animal fur) is non-verbal. So it's safe to say, Sonic's most annoying qualities went to Drift, lol.

When Drift finally has some company - in the form of Rouge and Knuckles landing on his island for a change - all he's got to offer them are carefree conversations and coconuts, no way home in sight. Just miles of ocean.

"Haven't you ever wanted to at least see what else is out there?" Knuckles demanded. Eyes still closed, Drift lazily waved his hand towards the endless blue expanse beyond the edge of his beach. "Take a long look, pal. That's all there is." "You can't know that!" Knuckles smacked the palm tree with the side of his fist, the whole thing swaying along with the hammock and finally coaxed the hedgehog to crack one eye open and peer up at him. "If you've never left this island, how could you know that there isn't something more for you?" Drift clicked his tongue, a lazy smile spreading across his face as he folded his arms behind his quills. "You tell me, big guy. What could be better than this? Now d'ya mind? You're kinda blocking my sun."

Knuckles can't stand him xD Rouge is just annoyed and wants to find a way back as soon as possible. But the two of them give him a little more perspective, even if he doesn't outwardly show it - because it is pretty fun to annoy them, he's never had real people to mess with - and when Tails shows up, it becomes clear that Drift is fully aware of how he's not actually free. Not caring is his way of coping, convincing himself that he couldn't possibly want more because he can't have it when the world has nearly drowned. But after connecting with both Tails and Knuckles, Drift decides life's no fun without taking a chance or two, so he decides to go with them when they finally leave the island.

Then they'll run across a familiar pirate ship we all know and love, and Drift will find both a purpose and adventure waiting for him aboard <3 He and Sails hit it off almost instantly, to the surprise of absolutely no one, lol. They bond the quickest out of all the variants.

Drift likes to hang out in the crow's nest because "it's the farthest from the water that I can get" and that's where Sails likes to hang out, too, when he doesn't feel like partying and wants somewhere to tinker on his contraptions. Sails thinks he's funny and Drift thinks he's clever. They understand each other's longing for freedom and purpose, but they worry about the price. Drift doesn't want to be anchored to anything and Sails worries he's only valuable as a member of a crew, that on his own, he's nothing. They both fill a need they didn't know they had, and they recognize it straightaway.

"Well... if ye every feel like yer being dragged down here," Sails hummed as he looked out at the edge of the horizon, "I'll fly ye up and out." "Oh yeah?" Drift snorted, but his muzzle quirked in genuine amusement. "Wouldn't that be considered mutiny?" "Can ye really mutiny if ye don't even have a proper captain?" Sails sighed dramatically, coaxing a chuckle out of his companion. "It keeps changin' every day! They keep... they keep abandonin' us," he said, his voice soft, but there was a frustrated edge to it lying just beneath the surface. "Why shouldn't any of us leave?" "Then why don't ya?" Sails pursed his mouth thoughtfully. "I've only ever been any good as a part of a crew. Even if all I ever do is help throw parties and act as lookout. At least I'm doin' something for someone." "A fair point," Drift agreed idly. "Well, guess it'll just depend then. How far can those tails of yours carry ya?" Sails looked over at him and shrugged. "Don't know," he answered honestly. "But so far, they've gotten me where I've needed to go. Can't promise they'll do the same for ye, but... I can promise I'll try." Drift glanced at him, and the sea breeze suddenly wasn't all that cold as a warm smile spread across his face. "I'll hold ya to it," he chuckled.

I haven't written much for them, I still need to figure out exactly when in the show they meet (right now I have it outlined for right after the episode "No Way Out" but I haven't fully pieced together each sequence of events), but I know I love them and they're wonderful~

Thanks for asking about my other problem child Drift! <3

SUPERKNUX :D

"Using the emerald to warp"

HOLD ON SONIC USING CHAOS CONTROL?! HELLO I'M SO I'M SO NORMAL. IT'S BEEN YEARSSSSS SONIC USE MORE OF CHAOS CONTEOL AND MY LIFE IS YOURS

Hahaha silly beast boy. Oh and Amy knows Shadow wants a rematch, shadamy ships crumbs yummy( i'm multi Amy has two hands btw)

[weirdofish]

Holy crap I'm dense

So I was playing Sonic DX on my computer as Tails, right? I was just farting around in Mystic Ruin after I beat Windy Valley when I spoke to an NPC near that wall to the left right when you get off the train and holy balls why did it take me until seconds ago to realize it was Angel Island? I've played this game since the early 2000s and I'm just now realizing that that's Angel Island!

Am I dense or what? XD

I also carried the silver Chao Egg to the Egg Hornet arena for shits and giggles (it was visible during the cutscene when Eggman first showed up lol). When he demanded the Chaos Emerald, my stupid dumbass brain thought he said "Chao Egg". I then flew near him and made a bald joke right before a missile blasted me.

On another note, when I talked to that little girl outside the train station who warned you about Eggman, I misread her dialogue and thought she said, "he stabs little animals and puts them inside of machines"

[niyana-the-ambiguous-mobian]

Sonic Prime was released one year ago today…..

Where has the damn time gone?

[fluffypichu876]

you think people would have liked unleashed more on release if the first level was this?

[mercurio-shadowz]

So, if Sonic has kissed almost everyone, does that mean he has kissed Eggman?-

I mean- I can picture Sonic sending him kisses while saying some mockery comment and Eggman just getting pissed off about it-

He's kissed him through the windows of his mechs just to fuck with him several times.

He knows it annoys the everliving heck out of Eggman bc he's gonna have to disinfect that shit over and over before he feels that it's hedgehog germ-free enough xD

[xxtc-96xx]

I find it funnier that at first u weren't gonna do any shipping stuff to avoid sonic shipping discourse and now you're like "Screw it. Shadamy supremacy and also Have a Blaze and Sonic child OC bc they are also now a thing here too."

Yep XD spite is beautiful. Because my friend gets annoying people bothering them for liking Sonaze I’m like “ok I’m gonna indulge in it too and I want more people to like it.” Same with Shadamy heh heh

[megbanned]

Hi Meg megbanned! It’s a pleasure to meet you. I just wanted to ask something. Your UWD concept fascinates me. How did you come up with it?

Hi hiiiiii!

Time for loreeeeeeeee XD

This is kind of old but basically- before entering the fandom I was creating a new fursona and sonicsona

Thiis one

But after knowing the series 1 year ago (November 1), it occurred to me to make my fursona into a drone, but I wanted it to keep their design.

So then I did this first concept for my drone

It looks a little weird since I didn't know how to draw the drones body, so I just made it similar to the Sonic style, I even included 5 fingers and the paws X'D

Although its appearance changed when it became a drone, I had more in mind that it would be like a small demon drone, something silly.

This was the first reference I made about my OC, it still had 5 fingers at that time and the design of the body where the lava was was different (I didn't know that drones had cores or the sign on their chests) and also my own oc was the first post about murder drones that I had made on twitter X'D and I call it just "A worker drone from the underground"

After creating this OC I said to myself "why don't I make more OCs with the same concept?" So I created 3 more

Although after a while I got a little annoyed that they looked so similar in terms of "drone model" and eventually differentiated them slightly in markings and colors (ABS was the second OC I created, so she is still very similar to her first concept and MB), I think by this point I was starting to think more that they were already a different type of Worker drones x'D

I mean: -They have Worker Drone bodies. -They have horns. -They have tails. -They have lava characteristics and different abilities and weaknesses.

They were definitely another type of drones and to clarify the above I had made this information sheet since I had been asked what my OC was about.

Pretty old information and designs x'D

And then I wrote a little more about my drones here https://www.tumblr.com/megbanned/744965835843649536/i-got-a-qeustion-so-pretty-sure-your-mascot-is?source=share

So after this I already had a simple base about what these drones were, they already had their first part of the lore and what they could do.

After a while, some friends and other people started asking me if they could create a drone similar to mine I didn't know what to answer because at first I only kept them for myself and my stories.

Unfortunately it took me a while to think about what to do…

After that I thought I could do something more with them, create more lore for them, establish their abilities and weaknesses a bit more, more basic information and more freedom regarding their designs. So I started making some custom designs for close friends.

Plus I also did some roleplaying since that helped me figure out what else they could do while answering my friends' questions.

In addition, other friends gave me advice on how to balance the drones and bring them closer to the Murder Drones canon but also leaving some artistic freedom.

Also, something funny is that at one point I got to write a script for a fake analog horror video about these drones XDDDDDD doing that helped me clarify more information.

And well, after a couple of months, having free time, and with my knowledge of closed and open species, I was able to compile all the information in this Guideeee

And that's how this subtype of drones appeared x'D

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[siggiedraws]

Considering usually it's Sonic getting flustered by Silver's directness, I do like the idea Sonic turns the tables on Silver by being a huge flirt when Silver is trying to (kinda unnecessarily lol) protect him XD

that's so cute! I wonder how Silver would react. maybe annoyed that Sonic is disrupting his concentration, because I think he gets very serious and determined when protecting someone/something and just wants to focus!

related to this, I think it's interesting to think about in what situations Sonic would be flirty! in Sonic Battle, he does make a flirty comment to Rouge, but it's very casual and not serious. I think he does it when he's at ease, as like a teasing sort of thing. which is probably why he's never done it with Amy, because Amy is very serious and intense about her affections and it makes him awkward 😅

Sonic's brand of more serious flirting tends to have an aspect of plausible deniability to it, I think. with the moment in Sonic Battle, Sonic is very overt about implying Rouge asked to date. however, there's the moment in '06 where Sonic says Elise has a nice smile and winks at her, which is less obvious than the example in Battle but definitely has an element of flirtatiousness to it with the wink! to go even more subtle, the moment in Black Knight where Sonic wraps an arm around Nimue's shoulder has even higher plausible deniability of whether it's flirting or not. I also think it's funny he only does this with an alternate reality version of Amy, lol.

so, when I imagine Sonic flirting with Silver, he could take either approach of being casual or serious, although Silver probably won't pick up on the more subtle approaches at all, haha

[lazorbeanz]

Here's a list I made of random thoughts and reactions I had during and after watching STH3 hehehrmrr why did I make this…

[angelkitty54]

Princess Chilli showing off her potential as the future Drama Queen of the Acorn Kingdom. And oh boy, she very much wants to remain an only child. XD

Sonic and Sally knew she'd react this way so they kept putting off telling her until it became really obvious. Chilli keep up the whole betrayal rhetoric for months, and remains salty even longer.

She dedicates those first few years into trying to convince everyone the new baby is defective and needs to be returned, and that they can totally still get their money back! She is very annoyed at the way the adults keep laughing at her perfectly reasonable and well thought out suggestions!

Though, secretly she becomes quite protective of her baby brother. After all, nobody gets to beat up or pick on her little bro except her!

[phightingheadcanons]

🧡🩵-anon here! I thought about what it would be like if the main roster of phighting met their au versions (aka the skins) and oh boy it would be CHAOS.

- Starting off strong is everyone doing that pointing spider man meme.

- Subspace is freaking out because a) alternate universes are real and b) because his alternates consist of a jester, an exorcist and a twink and he does not know how to feel about that.

- Medkit is also very confused and is silently having a panic attack. Doesn't help that Bivekit is spitting a bunch of conspiracy theories while the other Medkit's are just confused.

-Coil and Coil 2.0 are just having a fist fight, Sonic and Shadow ahh rivalry.

- Vinestaff, Shuriken and Slingshot are just kinda chilling with their alts. They're in the corner minding their own business.

- Scythe and Dutchman Scythe are annoyed that they have to deal with more than one Banhammer who are very much after their asses.

- All the Skateboards are racing each other.

- At least one building has been destroyed by the combined power of all the Rocket's.

- The Biograft's are just functioning as they would, they're surprisingly chill despite all this

-If you go near the Boombox's don't expect to be able to hear again, it is a mix of all the different music from their Boomboxes at full volume. No one knows how they are perfectly fine despite this.

-All the Swords are just taking turns sparing with each other, Follower Sword is wiping the floor btw.

- This is all happening in Crossroads so Zuka is seeing all of this and questioning everything while Broker is having a great time watching the carnage.

I don't think I can do all of them lol. Don't bother tagging them all, there's too many XD

You better believe on your 10 Hp life that I’ll tag every single one of em /lh /being silly

(Everyone that’s mentioned by name of course, not doing the indirectly referenced ones)

A Masterpost Of All My Sonic Fics and Headcanons So Far

Edited this post to add some other stuff of mine that doesn't involved fanfics.

I didn't include ALL of my fics because the first few ones I did when I started my blog were cringe as hell lmao

My Fanfics/Drabbles

Sonic Movie Series Fics

Enter Gamma - The Wachowski Bros try to come up with a new name for their new fiend UNIT. (Set after Sonic Drone Home.)

Sonic Crying Out Shadow's Name In Sonic Prime And How It Drove Me Crazy

More to add soon.

[skimmingmilk]

Well, I was reading your previous questions and I remember seeing something about The Ugly Duckling and why Tails doesn't like it. But what about La Muñeca Fea(The Ugly Doll)? It's a song by Cri Cri, a Mexican children's song singer. And the song is about an ugly doll who hides, is sad, dirty, and even broken, but a mouse tells her not to cry, because unlike those who abandoned her, there are many who love her, who care for her, and want her happy.

I know its a little dumb the situation, but let's pretend that language barriers don't exist for a moment.

It's not dumb at all! There are plenty of headcanons where the characters are multi-lingual, and since there are Sonic dubs in various languages, who's to say they wouldn't speak Spanish? (Or Mobius's Spanish-equivalent, lol). In fact, one of my headcanons is that Sonic and Tails are both pretty quick at picking up new languages - though Sonic moreso just because Tails ends up relying on his Miles Electric's translation features once he's built it. But as a little guy, he picked up on languages pretty quick!

Anyway, to answer your question: now, I really like the song La Muñeca Fea, it's very sweet <3 The problem with Tails and pretty much any children's media is that he wasn't exposed to it at the age where it would've made the most impact on him. His feelings in regards to children's stories or songs lack a sentimental lens, so he views them with a more critical eye.

The way I imagine how his childhood went, even once he was with Sonic, he really didn't come into contact with a lot of children's media. Not traditional lullabies or fairy tales or fables. I base a bit of this off of the AoStH episode "Sonically Ever After" where Tails didn't know any of the fairy tales because he'd never been exposed to them. It's the very last episode of the series, so in all the time Sonic had known Tails to that point (65 episodes), he'd never once told the kid a fairy tale. In Sonic's defense, most kids his age would be sick of and annoyed by "little kid stuff," understandably not understanding why they're important tools for child development, so didn't go out of his way to introduce Tails to children's songs or stories. Aside from the few books Tails gravitated to in libraries (which were all above the reading level of kids his age), his exposure to traditional children's media has been from about age 7 onward. And while he's still technically a child, he's not a child that really enjoys childish things or feels any sort of sentimentality to what most children would.

I say all this just to establish the framework for Tails's perspective here. I think he'd acknowledge La Muñeca Fea is a nice song with a good moral, but he'd probably think it's a bit boring and babyish xD Sonic played mostly rock songs when he was little, so his sentimental lullabies are more in that vein.

When he's an adult, his feelings on that will probably change, but as a kid that's trying his hardest to keep up with teenagers while saving the world on a regular basis? Yeah, he's pretty ambivalent to songs like that.

But I think it's a very fitting song for him and makes me tear up at the thought of a younger Tails getting to hear it and latching onto the story of the Ugly Doll <3 Thank you for asking about it and letting me get to turn this concept around in my brain! I love thinking about child development as it pertains to these characters.

[nebrasska-alasska]

Hellooo! First of all, I just wanted to say that I absolutely CHERISH ALL of your works. The first one I read was 'Silly Hats and Party Favors', I believe sometime when it was halfway complete, and your writing was so vivid and emotionally engaging that I was fully enamored with it. When you released the first ch. of 'The Secrets In Our Quills', I was locked in right away and reading each chapter as it updated was an emotional rollercoaster that was so thrilling and always had me kicking my feet and giggling to the point I would have to go for a walk to calm down LOL. I could ramble on and on about how much I ADORE all of your work, including all your active ones, but I won't (hehe, for now) because I've been wondering (and I don't know if someone else has asked this in the past before or not - so sorry if that is the case!): When did you first get into the Sonic franchise, and how long have you been writing for?

I think I saw you mention you have alt. accounts where you wrote other works, so I was curious how much experience you have (I guess, if that makes sense)? Your writing is truly remarkable! I started writing a little myself, but I've been struggling to find ample time to continually update my works since I'm completing my undergrad. degree in CS, and when I DO have time to write, I'm too mentally drained to do so which is annoying sometimes because I just want to write Sonadow to my heart's content ;-;

AWWWWWW THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I am so glad that you have been enjoying all of my stories so far, that really is so kind of you to say!!! :D

I first got into the Sonic franchise around the time I was a sophomore in high school, so it's been exactly ten years!!! The first Sonic content I consumed was the Sonic 06 cutscene movies, and there was something so alluring about something so objectively bad that it was a downward spiral from there LMAO

And I used to write a lot of fictional stories when I was in elementary school (and those atrocities are rotting in my closet rn LMFAO), but I took a break from creative writing through middle school, high school, and then started again when I was a junior in undergrad during 2020. And I learned a lot from that first account! I made my second ao3 account in 2021 because I wanted to keep my gen/nonshipping stories separate, and that is my 'main' I suppose? Nebrasska is my third alt trololol and I made this one because there were a LOT of irl people who knew my main handle and would stalk me in my updates and notes (including my parents RIP) so I wanted to write Sonadow without that pressure haha

I'll keep the first one a secret, not much going on there, but I can tell you my second alt account! @UC_Glue is the handle. I completed two stories: 'The Mouse in the Walls' for Encanto and 'The Tune He Whistles' for Puss in Boots. You will notice one big similarity between those fics and 'The Secrets in our Quills,' and that is that I am a sucker for secret relationships/friendships BAHAHAHAHA I have no shame XD

But anyways!!! Keep writing!!! You got this!!! It can be so tough to balance life and writing, but chipping away bit by bit will get you farther than you realize!!! Good luck on your fanfic writing endeavors, and live laugh love Sonadow HAHA :D

(Sorry this got hella long oops)
