as much as tails, knuckles, amy, and rouge having their counterparts memories after the fact would be neat, a huge part of me is hoping that they don’t remember shit and are just extremely confused as to why sonic has suddenly gotten so clingy

like sonic runs into tails’ lab and pulls him into a swinging hug (mimicking the hug with nine? maybe) and tails is just like “wtf is happening rn are you ok??? are you dying???” because his usually not-very-touchy big brother is crushing him and won’t let go
