"Sonic and Tails" this, "Maria and Shadow" that. "The avatar," "Silver and Blaze," etc etc they're ALL representative of frienship as a theme in Sonic, but can we talk about how ALL pale in comparison to Knuckles??
Who else to be the epitome of the theme of Frienship in STH than the very one who lacked frienship for most of his life?
Knuckles spent most of his time alone, with no one else in Angel Island but himself, some chao, and ruins upon ruins of a civilization long gone and forgotten.
its not until years of solitude that he meets eggman, sonic, and tails
and SURE, he is tricked by eggman into a fake frienship, and his first impression of the Prower siblings is of enemies in his territory, but... that quickly changes
He is betrayed by eggman the very day he had formed a bond with him, but also sees Sonic actively try to help him, he can't do anything but to trust Sonic, even after his trust was shattered by someone else
he chooses to trust Sonic's acts instead of Eggman's words.
Eventually Sonic is able to retrieve the Master Emerald back to Knuckles, and he and Tails fly away from Angel island.
and it makes you wonder what did Knuckles feel, his first friend had turned into a traitor, the rival he made had left, he had been alone for most of his life but
do you think it was until then when he felt lonely?
But it does not end there, whenn the egg robo and mecha sonic steal the M.E. and Knuckles has to destroy mecha, Knuckles almost falls to what could've been his death, griping to the Master emerald...
But he is rescued by Sonic and Tails, and taken to safety back to Angel Island.
Eventually Sonic and Tails returning to his island would become more and more recurrent, including other threats like Eggman.
Knuckles was no longer alone, Sure Sonic teases him over everything, and he is often ready to fight him if he crosses a line or two
but he never sees Sonic as an enemy, he always cares. and he starts to care for others too, Rouge, Amy, people keep entering his life and, not leaving.
But he never chases anyone out of his island except for eggman, even when he tries to get Rouge's hands off the Emerald he doesn't try to harm her, he just stands his ground.
He often chooses to leave the Master Emerald unguarded if it means he can help his friends
during the metal virus he just tells sonic that he keeps bringing trouble to his island, but he doesn't throw him out of it, even if he knows sonic is a threat, because sonic is his friend.
Knuckles is a character who once knew not of frienship but quickly became friends with so many people, and if it wasn't because of Eggman (incidentally) he wouldn't have had ever met such great friends

What are their dynamics like with each other?
For Robo Roommates
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Aw HELL YEAH group dynamics!
I've simplified them into 5 categories that sort of speak for themselves, though I should specify that everyone here gets along great so the 'Friends' category is for close friendships specifically. As for the 'Siblings' category, it's for siblings and 'sibling-like' relationships.
Scratch and Grounder already viewed each other as siblings as we all know, but after some time of D.U.F.U.S. living with them and looking after them in different ways, they started to see him as an older brother figure. Both of them are terrified of thunder and Doof was the first to try to help them with it. He has watched their Edgar Eagle VHS tapes with them countless times and lets them talk about the show at length. The twins look up to him ; and he's grown to care about them like family.
Coconuts was somewhat jealous of this relationship for a time, but when others joined the Sanctuary it greatly eleviated those feelings.
The other family unit is Bocoe, Decoe, and Bokkun. Shocking, I know. Bocoe and Decoe have been a couple for years at this point, long before they were abandonned and kicked out by Eggman. They're deeply affectionate towards each other and are very rarely seen apart ; if ever. They also built Bokkun! Eggman wanted a messenger robot but couldn't be bothered to build one himself (he'd much rather work on his giant fighting mechs), so he drew up some quick plans and handed the task off to his two underlings. Bocoe and Decoe took a few liberties but Bokkun was eventually born and they instantly grew attached to their little boy.
Speaking of their little boy, Bocoe and Decoe are lucky to have quite a few people in the Sanctuary who enjoy looking after him. Scratch and Grounder particularly like the little guy ; and so does Cubot once he joins the group. D.U.F.U.S. occasionally helps with the babysitting as well.
Finally, the friendships!
Scratch and Bocoe' friendship was born from something the two agreed on a long time ago. They both have people they care deeply about ; people they cannot let anything happen to. So Scratch and Bocoe agreed that if something happened to either of them, the other would help take care of their family. From there however, this simple agreement grew into a a close friendship: they could understand each other ; what it's like to have a family to look after.
Coconuts was always a bit of a loner- while a part of Grounder and Scratch's family, he never considered them as his siblings and they never considered him one either. He appreciates Bocoe and Decoe, but doesn't relate to them in terms of their relationship to one another or their roles as parents. But when Orbot- someone who had been hurt by their creator in similar ways and still struggled with remnant feelings of loyalty towards him ; something Coconuts himself had experienced in the very beginning ; joined the Sanctuary, the two naturally gravitated towards each other. They can spend hours talking about nothing and while Orbot can't eat, he greatly enjoys helping Coconuts cook.
Cubot and Grounder have a much more lighthearted, fun kind of friendship. They're two dumbots just out to have fun. Cubot thinks Grounder's many integrated tools are sooo cool ; and Grounder thinks Cubot's ideas are genius and amazing (which... compared to Grounder's... Yeah Cubot probably is capable of genius-level thinking). They particularly enjoy walking through the yet unexplored parts of the Sanctuary and try to map it out to see if they can find anything useful.

It's time for me to unleash the inner crazy Metal Sonic lover within myself and talk so so much about this mother fucking fucker Chaos Sonic!!! (image taken off a post by @/littleaipom)
Tumblr media
Ok so what I love so much about Sonic Prime is how much mileage it's getting out of the multiverse concept. It's a good multiverse cause it's surprisingly simple compared to the sort of MCU clusterfuck we associate the term with now. It's just Sonic AUS! And I really love that cause to me if anything screams Sonic media, it's AUs and canon divergence and wacky takes. I think this series is great at that, internally and with inspiring that in fans. What also makes it so great in Sonic Prime is that it has so much confidence in that. In the entire show the only normal characters are Sonic and Shadow, everyone else Sonic makes a connection with is a whole new spin on the old cast and its GREAT. I love Nine to death especially, he's definitely one of the best shatterverse characters.
But I think I have a definitive new favorite character now in Chaos Sonic, because he is that fresh new confident take on an old character but with such an underutilized one in Metal Sonic. I adore Metal Sonic, he's my favorite Sonic character and in my opinion the absolute most slept on. Sonic's robot doppelganger should absolutely have as much love as Shadow - his more serious and hardened antihero rival - and Knuckles - the stubborn immovable object to Sonic's steadfast unstoppable force. But he doesn't!! And it's tragic!! There is so much to do with Metal, with the Sonic created by the man who hates him more than anything, one of his first true rivals who was made to be his perfect antithesis, yet we get so little. But atleast in Chaos Sonic we get an awesome fucking take on him!! It's not Metal, but like I said about Sonic Prime as a whole, I LOVE how this show plays with the characters.
I see a lot of people pitting Chaos and Metal Sonic against each other or putting down one when talking about the other, but they're really just amazingly complimentary takes on the same character. The way it would be weird as hell to say either Nine or Tails is the better version of the character or something. Chaos Sonic's personality is of course what stands out the most between him and Metal Sonic, and while for some people it makes him unbearable or insulting to the OG Metal, it's one of the things I love most about him too. It's the complete opposite of what Metal and most robo-doppelgangers in the series, and especially Metal, are known for. Metal Sonic is all of Sonic's deadliness but none of his heart - he is a Sonic stripped of everything that makes him that energetic blue hero and reduced only to his power, speed, and obedience. He's a very cold a serious take on the robo-doppelganger that encapsulates the theme of classic Eggman, which was to do what nature did but better and deadlier. He's a very dehumanizing take on what Sonic is to his enemy, a potential tool like the rest of the animals and natural resources he abuses. Chaos Sonic is less like the (classic) Sonic Eggman wishes he had, but what (modern) Sonic is to him - this annoying, vain chatterbox who still manages to trounce you no matter how little he takes the situation seriously. Metal Sonic feel like a cold and calculated project driven by nothing but Eggman's frustration that something free and alive that he should have control over him still eludes him, and Chaos Sonic like just a project of pure spiteful mockery. Which I think very well represents how the relationship between Sonic and Eggman has changed to pit them more often as equals with their back and forths. And I really love how well both of them use this assignment to bring out these different aspects of Eggman and Sonic's relationship.
I think Chaos Sonic also specifically speaks to the New Yoke universe very well more than just being Sonic but more annoying. He is absolutely annoying and talkative just to mock Sonic, but stuff like his comments about Sonic being "smelly" and how he wants to be a brand star bring to mind really fun ideas about how he's like a commercialized version of Sonic too. I would love if he was integrated into New Yoke and you could see the Egg Council using him as a brand and he just loves it because he's an equally capitalistic jerk. It's a fun twist on Sonic's ego next to the more obvious one, that if Sonic didn't have his convictions he would very easily fall in line with the vanity of Eggman's worldview. Those are the moments that kind of make me wish that normal Metal Sonic had more speaking roles where him being an anti-Sonic in ideology could show. We atleast have the funny projection of him torturing animals from Sonic CD. I do still think that through Metal's sole commitment to beating Sonic and proving himself superior he does an equally good job at being that ideological opponent though, just in a quieter way befitting his era. Chaos Sonic represents Sonic's vanity in a personality sense with his want to be in the spotlight, and Metal Sonic in purely mechanical sense - just wanting to prove nothing but the fact he is better. And that single-mindedness makes him a great foil to Sonic who is a very wild and free-spirited person and never lets his ego and need to be the best define him more than his loyalty to those ideals. Meanwhile Metal Sonic entirely defines himself by his abilities and need to be a specific identity created by others. Something that makes him really damn tragic in a way I wish for the life of me was explore more.
Chaos Sonic doesn't HAVE to be an existential tragic mess... but I mean if they're gonna bring him back, he should have moments of that on top of just being awesome to watch fight and emote. OH MAN I HAVEN'T EVEN GOTTEN INTO HOW EXPRESSIVE HE IS. Once again, something totally different from Metal Sonic that only improves both characters in my eyes. I can't get enough of either of them! Whether it's Metal Sonic's intimidating silence or Chaos Sonic's "teehee giggle ^_^" attitude towards violence, I think both have some great chilling moments to them. Chaos Sonic's voice too is so good, it's probably my favorite voice performance in the show. It just has so much energy, and makes every line sound so genuine no matter how stupid. But at the same time he has good range too! When his voice gets low and serious or angry it's effective (atleast to me)! I mean that guy managed to make "You're too slow!" sound playfully venomous, I love it. With Metal Sonic it's maybe a bit harder to pin down what makes his stoicism work so well. Every character in the classic era was silent to a degree, so it's hard to say his silence stands out. But that's actually I think where I'd say his lack of expressiveness is genius. He manages to mimic the look of Sonic in body and face so much more naturally than any of the other doppelgangers but still in this sleek and blank way that is just amazing. Like I stare in awe at the design of this beast. Classic Sonic is very good at providing character through expressive animation and sprites, and Metal Sonic's lack of any yet ability to still feel like he has the face of a character and not just some robot makes him intimidating.
Which brings me to their overall designs. Metal Sonic is such an enduring Sonic character despite the long list of robo-Sonics because as I was saying before, the design is just too good. It is beyond aesthetically pleasing, straight up gorgeous - which makes him so effective. He truly does feel like Sonic's equal and possibly even superior in mechanics and LOOK, he makes his mechanical and flesh peers look clunky and outdated by comparison. Sonic but polished to an unnaturally perfect finish, with those dead glowing red eyes that house none of his soul. Genius fucking design. I woefully cannot say that I think Chaos Sonic is an equal in that, but it might be physically impossible to make a better Metal Sonic, and he does come damn close! Specifically because he does take the cue of the more natural eyes (every other sonic-robo has some sort of distinctly robotic visor), but still does something new and catching with it in the bike helmet-like screen. It takes everything perfect about that aspect of Metal and builds on it for this version of him, the dark void of blank pixels is replaced with a very beautiful yet icy blue that contrasts the red eyes very well. I've seen many fan designs that use those red eyes for expression, but it is best a choice here than on the original Metal for the reasons I said above. It's so clear how much fun the animators are having with using them to emote without making it feel too natural by giving him a mouth or something. I also really like his chest rocket, it feels a lot more streamlined than Metal's, which helps with how energetic and mobile he is. Metal screams sleekness and speed, but in a very artificial way with how much his rocket takes up his design. Like I said, there's no beating Metal due to the sheer simple brilliance of his design that is totally a product of such a complex concept being perfected in the classic era. In general Sonic Prime tends to make designs a bit more complicated than what would pass as the peak of series design, but they still own in their own right. Chaos Sonic is a great example of this where he is noticeably more busy of a design than Metal but with very clear shapes and colors that make him fit in with the overall series style.
All this praising and blabbering to say. Metal Sonic is the most important thing to me, and Chaos Sonic is also the most important thing to me cause he and Metal just complement each other so fucking good. That's really what a good alternate take on a character should do! Feel fresh but still very flattering to the blueprint, explore different directions the original character could've taken to make you appreciate the execution of those aspects even more. Chaos Sonic is the best example of the show next to Nine. When I think deeper about it some of the other shatterverse versions don't go AS HARD with this, but they all feel like fun takes that do feel like they came from aspects of the original characters. Plus, that's why Nine is the hook, he is a very well developed "what if" for Tails that explores how much of a difference a friendship can make in someone's life. I also just in general really enjoy it when a story says, "Yeah, sometimes people react to issues by being antisocial as easily as they react by being docile when they don't have the space to be sensitive". It's not like... handled explicitly with that much nuance, but the nuance is there in my heart. Also damn, speaking of Nine I didn't even bring up how cool "Eggman (kinda) tricks Tails into making a Metal Sonic using his knowledge of the real Sonic" is. It's epic, and I actually really hope it's more explored, as well as Chaos Sonic in general. I feel like the writers, animators, and VA had way too much fun with him not to bring him back. I would love nothing more as a poor starving Metal Sonic stan-peasant...

Top 5 Sonic Final bosses? :)
This is counting "regular" final bosses as well, in the case of those that have a true final boss. Spoiler though: they're all Eggman. :P I swear this wasn't on purpose, it's just that the other villains who make up a final boss often tend to be underwhelming for one reason or another.
5. Nega-Wisp Armor - It may be a bit on the easy side, but since Colours marked the first 3D title where Eggman was the uncontested final boss from all angles, it holds a lot of significance to me as a result. That aside, it's also cool that Eggman gets to use the Wisps against you... even takes the announcer with him. >:|
4. Egg Diablo - I think I've become this boss fight's biggest stan at this point lol. I get why some parts might piss players off, but for the most part, I genuinely enjoy how challenging this one is. Its design provides a neat shogun spin on the Death Egg Robot template, it has a lot in common with the Great Eggman Robo (see below), and I love how Eggman segues into phase 2 by cockblocking your victory.
3. Egg Viper - One of the most famous examples here. Killer design, legendary meme, and an ending that always gets me hyped. I'm not a Michael Bay, but I love that explosion so much.
2. Egg Wizard - A very unique and underrated one. Thanks to the Jeweled Scepter, Eggman (and Nega, but fuck him) shows off a selection of unconventional magic-based attacks. The fight itself is quite fun too.
1. The Death Egg/Doomsday finale - I consider the endgame of S3&K to be one of the best in the series, largely because of how well it incorporates Eggman's absolute refusal to give up. There are gods who get Big Oof'd after one fight, meanwhile this man keeps going again and again. And all this after the rest of S3&K, which of course had many other moments where the doctor gave his 110%.
Honorable mentions: The original Death Egg Robot cause of how iconic it is, SA1 Egg Walker cause of the significance it has for Tails and Eggman's own demeanour in the cutscene leading up to it, Perfect Chaos for being probably the least shit Super Sonic boss in a 3D installment, the Egg Shrimp in Advance 2 for what it says about Eggman and Sonic's characters with how quick they are to kidnap and save a random woman respectively, Emerl in Battle cause of the emotions surrounding it, Egg Salamander in Rush cause ~wrapped in black, wrapped in black~, Alf-Layla-wa-Layla cause Sonic gets to beat the shit out of Erazor "Domestic Abuser" Djinn, the Mega Death Egg Robot in Forces cause of the genius of Eggman storing a second mech inside the first one, and finally - despite its, er, complications - the Black Dragon in Superstars, cause seeing Sonic's friends help him out during it is extremely appreciated by me after years of them standing around like cheerleaders whenever it's final boss time.

Naofumi Hataya, John Tay - [Alternate] (S&K) Boss Theme (YM2612 + SN76489)
There's not a lot to say for this track in general. Maybe some people have their curiosity on why this sounds how it does, so I'll explain.
I didn't put too much thought into writing the boss themes but I thought that it'd be a great idea to redeem Sonic Forces' well-known Classic Sonic theme (behind Green Hill, with terrible instrumentation), (Battle with) Egg Dragoon Mk. II. Couldn't decide on whether to use my personal spin or the original composition, so I took both, for the sake of my troubles.
youtube
Written by Naofumi Hataya, I felt like this was kind of a missed opportunity since the psuedo-Mega Drive FM synthesis didn't do the tracks any favors, so I thought it'd be a great inclusion to add, despite me, again, not putting too much thought into it. This is probably an unsung composition of the Classic Sonic songs because of its goofy nature, but it reminds me of the unused boss themes in Sonic 3D Blast (MD), so I took a liking to it. Jon Burton would disagree though (haha).
youtube
I also thought that making a fusion of both the S3K Major Boss themes together in the song would be nice, because why the fuck not. This was inspired by Sonic Robo Blast!'s SHOWTIME!! With the Mad Gigglyman... Eggman Boss Theme (well, if that isn't a mouthful then idk what is) by PhantomCryptik and Deadlyname15.
youtube
This song referenced Sonic 2's boss theme melody, and while I didn't take anything from Sonic 2, I did learn from it by giving the song a dedicated section to reference both the S3 miniboss and major boss themes, just to fill things up in the background. Some audio candy to chew on, if you will.

You know what’s a neat little thing that I don’t think gets a lot of mention in Pre-Reboot Archie?
The fact there were Things about Mobius Prime that surprised Eggman.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
God but issue 92 *sucked*.
But, anyway! Point is- I do actually appreciate these attempts to illustrate that Eggman’s life prior to coming to Mobius Prime and becoming Eggman were not identical to Robotnik Prime’s own, even taking into account the main diverging point of him Roboticizing himself.
Especially when, according to one bio, when said Roboticization happened-
Tumblr media
Yep- Eggman was Roboticized a full three years before Robotnik Prime died in Endgame. Which, given that at this point the Robo-Robotnik from Issue Nineteen and Issue Twenty Two were explicitly one and the same (as established in issue Seventy Five), means that the Sonic and company of his zone were partially cyborgified when they were twelve or so... and then nearly killed Robotnik at that age. Eeeesh...
Anyway. I find it fascinating to consider, because some of these differences can be accounted for by the fact that Endgame never happened, while others imply there were other points of divergence even before then.
For example- Eggman being shocked at the existence of Echidnapolis at first seems a bit odd, since given that by the time he finally got his body back on ‘his’ Mobius and obliterated it, you’d think it’d be pretty clear there was an Echidna city on Angel Island by that point. It makes sense that the old Robotnik never knew about it given that he was dead before it came it back, but you’d expect Eggman to know. Yet he is completely surprised. It seems like an oversight... until you remember Endgame.
One of the explicit results of Endgame was that the Ultimate Annhilator’s overloading and subsequently blowing up released energies that weakened the barriers between Zones, and because of that, Echidnapolis and Cavem Canus both were being forced back into the Prime Zone at the same time, resulting in the destruction of the latter. If not for that though? Echidnapolis would never return, and its entirely possible that without Endgame forcing the issue it may never have returned to Angel Island even by the time Robo-Robotnik finally came back and destroyed everything. Now, I don’t know when Guardians in Archie are allowed back into Echidnapolis and told the whole story of things, but I wanna say Eighteen or so. So, Knux would have at least a few more years before finding out the truth of his people, and that knowledge might haven ever left him or Sally.
Kinda makes me wonder how that world’s Julie-Su adjusted to life on Angel Island without any access to the modernity of Echidnapolis...
Likewise though, this would also explain why Eggman didn’t recognize Drago. Since Endgame never happened, he never had any need to associate with Drago or use him in his schemes. It’s interesting how THAT is actually kept rather consistent, that some of the gaps in Eggman’s knowledge are because that One Big Thing never happened.
But then you get the info about Colin, and more intriguing possibilities arise as to how different Eggman’s world was. See, in the Prime Zone, after the Great War Colin led a migration of Overlanders into space to find a new world and as such missed out on Julian taking over Mobius and all the other fun stuff that followed. The quest for a new home was a failure, and Colin’s group returned to Mobius (and unintentionally helped alert the Xorda to the fact life was still on what used to be Earth. Way to go there, Colin).
Eggman’s words here though spell out that he Roboticized his own Colin a while ago, meaning that on HIS Mobius? Colin for whatever reason never left the Great War. And while I doubt it was planned out this way, this would also explain why Eggman never anticipated the Xorda- on his own Mobius, Colin never leaving Mobius means that the Xorda never find their way back to Mobius or try to destroy it, so Eggman is as off-guard as everyone else.
It also makes me wonder if  there is some kind of intrinsic difference in the Roboticization process of his own Zone or some kind of subtle difference between the Overlanders of Mobius Prime and the Overlanders of the ‘Cyber Zone’, because that might explain why Roboticization doesn’t work properly on Overlanders... in the Prime Zone anyway.
Where am I going with this? Nowhere in particular, I just find it kind of interesting to note that there WAS an effort made to establish that Eggman’s life was different from Robotnik’s in Archie, small as that effort was. It wasn’t enough to really salvage the whole ‘Replacement from Another Zone’ conceit, especially given how often the writers resorted to spelling it out over and over again. The whole plot point was INCREDIBLY confusing and convoluted...  but all the same, I appreciate that effort and find it fascinating, even if it never went anywhere and probably never could.

Wreck-It Ralph & Mario Bros: Of Plungers and Hammers pt 2:
   Mario and Luigi exited BurgerTime with Luigi humming happily. Mario chuckled and nudged him.      "That what you wanted, lil bro?"      "Yes! Been trying to get here for the past week but it's been so busy!"
   A raised eyebrow. "You had a few times you could've come here, but you and Daisy were sneaking off." the older brother pointed out. Luigi looked like a deer in headlights.      "Yeeeeah, so maybe we both like to have a date after a busy day. Nothin' wrong with that."      "A 'date', that's what you're calling it?" Mario snickered. "I thought it was usually just called a 'quickie'."    His joke made Luigi stumble and sputter in embarrassment. "M-Mario!" he hissed, pulling his hat down. His action made Mario laugh. "Relax lil bro, I'm just glad you two get along."      "Speakin' of getting along, you and Felix have been hanging out a lot. Anything special goin' on there?" Luigi inquired.    Rubbing his neck, Mario smiled faintly. "We just, we really get along and I like spending time with him. And he kinda, asked me out and I said yes."      "Hey, that's great!" Luigi cheered. "When's the date?"      "Heh, guess it really is a date. There's supposed to be a dance set up in the station in a couple days. He asked me to that."    Luigi hummed with a knowing glint in his eyes. "'bout tiiime." he sang softly. Mario stared at him.      "Whadda ya mean by that?" Luigi rolled his eyes at his brother's inability to pick up the hint. "Nothing."
   Monday came, and an area of Game Central Station had been roped off. Those who weren't in their games to keep up with practice were instead gathered around to watch the activity. Sonic darted around along with several floating robots as they laid out a light-up dance floor. Eggman meanwhile was working with more of his robots to set up a stage and DJ equipment.    As he was testing out some speakers, Sonic raced over.      "Need any more tunes for tonight?"    Rubbing his mustache between his gloved fingers, Eggman spied two figures walking in the distance. His goggles flashed as he grinned.      "There is something. A song I overheard a gamer playing from his phone device."    Explaining what he needed, he watched as Sonic took off. From nearby Surge was running after him, calling he shouldn't bring back random things from the internet.    By the time evening came the dance floor was fully set up and the stage held a banner that read 'DJ Robotnik & The Robos'. Nearby were large tables filled with food and drinks. The station was filled with chatter and laughter as the floor lit up, game characters who were dressed in their best eager to get on out and dance.    One figure politely made his way past the clusters of people, his pale blue eyes eagerly scanning the crowd. His blue silk vest glittering in the shifting lights.      "Hi Felix." Spinning around Felix's breath caught in his throat. Mario was standing behind him and he had changed into his party clothes. A crisp white shirt was covered with a cheery red vest, a glittering red bow tie was around his neck. Sleek black slacks and polished dance shoes completed the look. The only thing he had kept from his original outfit was his trademark red hat.      "E-Evenin' Mario." Felix managed to find his voice. "You look amazing."    A cheerful laugh. "Thanks, Weege says I clean up pretty good."
   Both looked up as the lights changed, shifting to a multitude of rainbow colors as a Euro-trance disco song played.    Rubbing the back of his neck, Felix looked shyly at the other.      "Mario, would, would you care to have this dance?" The smile that met his words made his heart flutter.      "I'd love to."    Their moves were smooth, hand in hand they twirled nimbly over the lit dance floor, their heartbeats matching the swift pulse of the song. Nearby at the refreshment table, Luigi, who was dressed similar to his brother, sipped at his punch as Daisy joined him. Both watched the pair out on the dance floor.    Daisy folded her arms, her gold gloves sparkling. "It's about time. Who asked who to dance?"    A shake of his head. "Felix, I think. Not sure." Turning to help herself to some punch, Daisy looked back at the pair. "Probably right. Your bro is bold as heck on the tracks but good lord he's shy around Felix."    The two were in perfect unison with the melody, feet flying across the pulsating tiles. As they twirled, Felix's cheerful laugh traveled across, mixing with the music. Spotting the pair as the song ended, Eggman pulled up the mic as he loaded the song Sonic had gotten for him.      "This next one goes out to all the couples out there, but I warn you, this is no slow dance!"    A bright and happy electronic dance song began, the lyrics flowing over the crowd. Something in the melody made Mario take up Felix's hands and they swept over the floor, ballroom style. From off the stage, Sonic gave Eggman a thumbs up.    Mario couldn't help but chuckle as he heard the song's lyrics.      "'Lost in the greenest eyes', they should change it to bluest eyes." Faint joy flickered across Felix's face only to just as quickly fade as Don's words came back to him.    Peach is Mario's gal. They're programmed for each other.  He looked away. "Heh, yeah, your Princess Peach really does have blue eyes."    Mario stopped mid-step, still holding his partner's hands. "Who says I'm talkin' about Peach?"    Felix pulled away. "D-don't talk like that." He took a step back and Mario countered with a step forward, hands out pleadingly. "Why not?"      "You belong with Peach, not me."      "Felix, I.. but I want to be with you."    Tears gathered in Felix's eyes. "We can't!" his voice was loud as the song came to an end, making all eyes turn towards the couple. Unable to take the stares he ran off with Mario chasing after him. Luigi and Daisy watched, dumbfounded.      "Yikes, that didn't go well. Should we go after them?" Daisy asked. Luigi felt lost.      "I, I'm not sure."
   Racing across Game Central Station, Felix darted back into his game with Mario right behind him. Reaching the little tram station he stopped, hesitating at jumping into the waiting car. His pause was just enough time for Mario to reach him.      "Felix, wait!" Mario begged.    Wrapping his arms around himself, Felix recoiled as he shook his head. "We can't do this." he said tearfully. "I-I like you, Mario. I mean I really like you." he looked up. "But your programming, you're Peach's hero, you know what that means. Your backstory in your games, she's your girl. Going with me, you're going against your code."    His arms fell to his sides, a weak laugh with the motion. "And me? I'm just the guy who fixes things, over and over. No real backstory, no lore, my 'family' long gone." his voice dropped. "And no love life." he finished weakly.      "It doesn't have to be that way." Mario offered, his tone suggesting he wasn't sure of his words. "Does it?" He shook his head, fists clenched. "No, no I want this, and you do too, right?" his tone shifted from determined to pleading.      "I do, but-"    The kiss was sudden, cutting him off and making his knees tremble. He reached up but instead of embracing Mario, he pushed and broke the kiss, leaving both gasping and Felix with tears streaming down his face.      "Felix?"      "I-I can't. We can't." He stepped back, stumbling a bit. "I, I think you should just forget me."    Mario felt his heart shatter. He took a step back, refusing to look at the other.      "I don't think I ever could." he softly admitted. "I'm sorry." Turning, his back to Felix, he glanced back as if to say something else. Instead he rushed and jumped into the tram, not looking behind him as it pulled away.
   Unable to focus on having a good time, Luigi excused himself from the dance, anxious to return home.    Returning to the kart game he made his way past the castle, to the area the gamers never saw. An entire Toad Town was hidden back beyond the castle along with the house he and his brother shared. Entering the little house his heart sank when he saw the red hat hanging on the peg and the shoes tossed aside. Slipping off his own and placing his bow-tie in the nearby bowl with his house key, he went upstairs.    The stairs creaked beneath the red and white striped socks. The taller twin paused at the top of the stairway. The bedroom was dim, only his little nightlight offering any illumination. The figure on the bed was a shadow, curled up tightly with his back to Luigi. He sniffled and curled up tighter as Luigi came over and sat on the edge of the bed.      "Big bro? What happened out there?" The room was quiet, so much so that Luigi could hear Mario's soft breathing. Not getting an answer, he stood. "I'm always here for you, bro." he turned to leave and the trembling voice made him stop.      "We kissed."    Turning back, Luigi returned to sitting on the bed. Mario sat up, moving so he was seated beside him.      "We kissed and he, he pushed me away. Said to forget him. That bein' together would be against our codes." He looked up, tears glimmering in the soft glow of the nightlight.      "How do you forget someone that makes you feel like everything?" Putting his arm around him, Luigi coaxed him into resting against his side. "I don't think you can." he said gently. "But give it time, it might get easier."      "It hurts..."   Luigi hugged him a little tighter. "I wish I could erase it for you." he said softly.      "Thanks, Weege."      "I was gonna make some cocoa, you want any? With extra marshmallows?"    A slight smile at the attempt to cheer him up. "Not tonight, thanks. I think I'm just gonna try to get some sleep and forget today." He sat upright. "Don't worry about me, I'll be okay."    Standing again, Luigi watched him. "If you're sure. I meant it, I'm always here for you." As he left, Mario considered his words.    'A way to erase it.'
   Over the next few days, a shift was felt in the Arcade. An eerie sensation that left all on edge. At the following Bad-Anon Meeting, it became the topic of choice once the main meeting was over.      "Anyone else feel as if something is wrong?" Saitine asked. The group readily agreed.      "Feels like when a blue shell is chasin' ya on the track." Bowser muttered.      "Or when health is low, and opponent iz ready to deliver final strike!"  Zangief pointed out. Clyde was thoughtful. "Have any of you noticed changes in your games? Anything indicating a virus, maybe?"    Low chatter as everyone thought it over, and most came to the conclusion all was normal. All except Bowser. He set aside his coffee and folded his arms, eyes closed in thought.      "I donno how many of you saw it, but since that odd time with Mario and Felix on the dance floor, that's when this started. Mario's been more withdrawn than a stomped on Koopa, and it's unnerving."    Ralph considered this, his brow furrowed. "...You're right." he finally said. "Felix has been actin' off ever since that night. The more I think about it, this whole thing feels familiar, almost like when..." his voice trailed off, eyes going wide as he got up. "Sorry, gotta get home!"    The others watched him run out.      "Good heavens, what was that all about?" Saitine wondered.
   Meanwhile, back at the Fix-It Felix, Jr game...
   A knock at the penthouse door and it opened.      "Felix dear? Are you home?" Peering in, Mary found the penthouse was dark. The elevator door dinged and opened and Gene stepped out. Mary closed the penthouse door.      "Any sign of him?" Gene asked.      "No." Mary then brightened. "Perhaps the roof! I'll check there now." Fix-It Felix sighed, slumping against the chimney stack as he gazed up at the stars. A creak of metal and tapping of tiny high heels was heard as Mary opened the hatch and climbed out.      "Here you are." she said cheerfully. "Was beginning to think you'd gotten lost on us."    He gave a weak smile. "Evenin' Mary." He scooted over and she sat beside him, looking up.      "Always did love seeing the stars from up here." she said. "If only we got shooting stars, we could make wishes."    Felix laughed softly. "What would you wish for?" She thought about it. "Oh, something simple I suppose. A new cookbook, perhaps. But I heard from Sonic those are on that internet thingy, he even offered to get me one, the dear." She watched the young man closely. "What about you? What would you wish for?"      "I don't know anymore." his voice was so laced with pain it broke her heart to hear it.      "Felix, are you all right? Ever since the dance you've been so, so dreary. The Nicelanders are getting worried, and that includes me. Did something happen?"    He didn't answer right away, instead taking out his magic golden hammer, turning it slowly in his hands.      "I can fix pretty much anything," he said, "but how do I fix a broken heart when it's mine?"    Mary lightly touched his arm. "Who broke your heart, dear?"    A lone tear trickled down his cheek. "I did." he whispered.

I need to gush about IDW Sonic 50. If you hate the IDW comics, please don’t interact with this post.
Tumblr media
I really loved IDW 50! I love how it was very contained on the 3 stories! Tails using his smarts and talking it out with Kit was great. The battle between Sonic and Surge was cool (could’ve been a bit longer), and the Eggman Empire characters had such a great dynamic.
I loved seeing the Egg Emperor go against the Lost World Egg Robo. It was so smart how Eggman won and how it utilized canonical gameplay motifs!
The comic actively criticized Sonic’s forgiveness issue in the series and worked with it well. This Sonic is very morally-bounded and having Surge curse Sonic as his decisions lead to the pain of so many is both fascinating and necessary to address.
Also, let’s just appreciate that Tails’ intelligence doesn’t end at just building machines, but also with how he talks to his enemies to diffuse a situation. It’s great!
I doubt Starline and Surge are dead though. No corpse = no death.
50 issues in! What a milestone and it’s only going to more interesting as we move on! We are so lucky to have Sonic so prominently featured in so many avenues of entertainment!

Ah, Snively! You've been updating again.
It's been such a long time since I last heard from you that I-
...
I, uh-
...
I assumed you'd died?
...
*cough*
Tumblr media
You know, this happens to me quite often. Either people assume I'm dead or they just plain forget I exist. It's a little vexing but often quite advantageous.
Anonymous asked:
Is there anyone or anything you ever miss from Overland?
Not really, no. I mean. I. No. Absolutely not. There's no one and nothing for me there.
I do wonder if the mansion I grew up in is still there.
Anonymous asked:
What's your favorite thing that you ever built or invented?
Did you know I'm the one who designed the little flying spy cameras that used to buzz around Robotropolis? They're not my favorite things, they're just things, but I felt a little like bragging for a second. Only a little. They're just flying cameras, so it's not like it was that wild an idea, but it is interesting that I had to come up with it. But I suppose that was my job back then. Security.
I'm not going to tell you my favorite thing because that's telling. I'd rather SHOW YOU.
Anonymous asked:
Dear Snively I know that you and the Mobians didn't get along with each other, but how did your sister Hope get along with them?
Strangely well, I believe. She has abysmal taste. As for them... well. You know, she's rather innocent looking; she's just a kid. Of course they were nice to her.
Of course when I was first in Mobian lands I, too, was just a kid and did not get treated that well.
Anonymous asked:
I know that you have a desire for world domination, but what do you think of gardening?
I enjoy growing plants but I don't often get to because I'm always moving around lately. It's just too hard to keep them alive with my busy schedule. Perhaps I should try my hand at succulents.
Actually that gives me a great idea for--No. no no. I can't tell you that.
Anonymous asked:
You know, I'm curious- what were you doing between the time you parted from the Freedom Fighters after helping them escape Robo-Robotnik's sattelite, and the time Eggman recaptured you? And how DID Eggman finally manage to find you?
Hiding. Duh. I suppose it no longer matters if I keep this secret. Robotropolis was riddled with secret passageways and hidey holes that I created over the years. Basically I was holed up in a panic room until I ran out of supplies and had to return to the surface and, well, that didn't go so well did it?

Amy, are you sure you want to join the Eggman Empire? Metal Sonic’s robo-stud cock can’t be that great, right?
Amy can't answer except for moaning "DADDY MORE PLEASE~!" for Metal Sonic while he fucks this thicc broken slave whore bimbo harder and faster and deeper and better than Sonic could ever with his huge thick hot hung robostud alpha cock. Amy has hearts in her eyes and she cums so much and she's drooling while swearing her eternal allegiance to the empire just so Metal Sonic can keep her as his bimbo slave whore. She has a tattoo on her phat bimbo titties now proving she's empire property and giving Metal Sonic a permanent invitation to fuck her silly any time any where. Her reward is being dicked down and enslaved again by her favorite super hung huge alpha robostud.

Round One Match-ups
Tumblr media
If you've followed this blog since the Sonic Tournament, you'll know that I struggle to make a graphic for 64 ship tournaments, so enjoy this image of Cupid Robotnik instead Below are the matches for Round One, arranged as they would appear on the grid and followed by some notes about what's been put where and why. There will be an image for Round Two, I promise
Round One will be posted in four lots of 8 polls that will run for a single day. The first 8 will be posted today at around 10pm GMT
TOP LEFT:
Dr. Robotnik/Agent Stone vs Dr. Robotnik/Wes Weasely Dr. Eggman/Me, the person running this blog vs Dr. Eggman/You, the person reading this post Dr. Eggman/Black Doom vs Dr. Eggman/Zavok Dr. Eggman/Dionysus (Hades Game) vs Dr. Eggman/Leon (Pokemon) Dr. Eggman/Great Battle Kukku vs Dr. Eggman/Lyric Dr. Eggman/Thunderbolt vs Dr. Eggman/Metarex Dr. Eggman/Vector vs Dr. Robotnik/Aleena Mr. Tinker/Dr. Starline vs Mr. Tinker/Elder Scruffy
BOTTOM LEFT:
Dr. Eggman/Dr. Wily vs Dr. Eggman/Inspector Gadget Dr. Eggman/himself (General) vs Dr. Eggman/theme parks Dr. Eggman/Clutch vs Dr. Eggman/Mimic Dr. Eggman (Classic)/Dr. Eggman (Modern) vs Dr. Eggman/Dr. Kintobor (Moebius) Dr. Eggman/Locke vs Dr. Eggman/Wendy Naugus Dr. Eggman/Lord Boxman (OK KO) vs Dr. Eggman/The Once-ler Dr. Eggman/The President (Games) vs Dr. Eggman/The President (OVA) Dr. Robotnik/Lucas vs Dr. Robotnik/Lucinda
TOP RIGHT:
Dr. Eggman/Dr. Starline vs Dr. Eggman/Sera Dr. Eggman/an egg vs Dr. Eggman/Dr. Eggman's Incredible Interstellar Amusement Park Dr. Eggman (Boom)/anon vs Dr. Eggman/Martha (Snapcube) Dr. Eggman/Dr. Doofenshmirtz vs Dr. Eggman/Humpty Dumpty (Puss in Boots) Dr. Eggman/Dr. Robotnik (AoStH) vs Dr. Eggman/Zobotnik Dr. Eggman/The Conductor vs Dr. Robotnik/Grimer Dr. Eggman/Uncle Chuck (Sonic X) vs Dr. Robotnik/Uncle Chuck (SatAM) Dr. Robotnik/Latte with steamed austrian goat milk vs Dr. Robotnik/The Mean Bean Machine
BOTTOM RIGHT:
Dr. Eggman/Bowser vs Dr. Eggman/Dr. Neo Cortex Dr. Eggman/no one vs Dr. Eggman/The Chaos Emeralds Dr. Eggman/Captain Whisker vs Dr. Kintobor (Fleetway)/Mr. Tinker Dr. Eggman/Dr. Starline/Thunderbolt vs Dr. Eggman/The Conductor/The Conductor's Wife Dr. Eggman/Ella vs Dr. Eggman/Witchcart Dr. Eggman/T.W. Barker vs Dr. Robotnik/Sleet Dr. Robotnik/Katella vs Dr. Robotnik/Robo Robotnik Dr. Eggman/King Candy vs Dr. Eggman/Satan (Puyo Puyo) vs Dr. Eggman/Rick Sanchez MATCH-UP NOTES:
As the ships that received the first and second most submissions, Robotnik/Agent Stone and Eggman/Starline have been placed on opposite sides of the grid to each other, in the top left and top right respectively. They have both been given easy first matches against a ship that received only one nomination Since we had four ships that tied for third place (Eggman/Bowser, Eggman/Wily, Eggman/himself (General) and Eggman/no one) that worked out nicely for organising them, so two each have been placed on the bottom left and bottom right sides of the grids. I broke it up so that each side would have one popular crossover and one non-ship Eggman ship - so Eggman/Wily and Eggman/himself have been placed on the bottm left and Eggman/Bowser and Eggman/no one have been placed on the bottom right We had a large amount of crossovers submitted, so unlike the Sonic tournament where they were grouped together, for this tournament the crossovers have been spread out across the whole grid Same goes for all the various Eggman/himself variants. There should be at least one on every corner of the grid Since most ships only received one or two submissions, the match-ups are more random this time. A few have been stuck together because I thought it'd be funny or they have a similar theme, but mostly they're random We have one single threeway poll in this tournament, which has been placed at the bottom of the grid. This is "Dr. Eggman/King Candy vs Dr. Eggman/Satan (Puyo Puyo) vs Dr. Eggman/Rick Sanchez" as they were all crossover ships that received a single nomination

Robo Roommates Quick Refs
Some very short, basic references/descriptions for the bots in the Robo Roommates AU
They're subject to change in the future but I'll be using them as bases for now. (Also, 'Equipment' are almost all things Bocoe & Decoe are building/have built for themselves or the other bots. They don't plan on interfering with Eggman and/or Sonic anymore but they'd still rather have something to defend themselves with, just in case)

🏝️ Favorite stage/level?
💥 Favorite Boss Fight?
Ah, too many choices D:
🏝️
Chemical Plant for how exiliaratingly fast you can go
Marble Garden because it's pretty and big and it has so many secrets and alternative routes <3
Twinkle Park because I love the aesthetic and the shortcuts you can take by sticking to the upper path (or spindashing from the right place lol)
Grand Metropolis because it also has a great aesthetic and it's also nice and fast :)
Sunset Hill because it's beautiful, and all three acts have different structures (alt. paths, speed, verticality)
Air Fleet Dark because it mixes some decent platforming with BLAM BLAM BLAM DESTROY EVERYTHING IN SIGHT MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Jungle Joyride because it's a difficult but satisfying level with an incredible sense of progression
Mania Metallic Madness because it took a fairly boring level from CD and turned it into a fast ride with multiple paths while keeping all its recognizeable gimmicks
💥
Giant Eggman Robo, a multi-phased, intimidating final boss that, together with The Doomsday Zone, shows one of Eggman's best qualities: he just. won't. give. up.
Robot Carnival/Storm. Yes I like it D: especially with Team Chaotix. I find it cathartic.
EGG DRAGOON MY WHOLE BELOVED. yes it's very easy but THE SHEER COOL FACTOR OF FALLING TOWARDS THE CORE OF THE EARTH. And the way the Werehog dismantles it <3
Egg Reverie. Love the detail of the timer going crazy, and having to defeat two opponent. Theme slaps entire ass too <3

Ever feel like you give Ian Flynn a bit (keyword bit) more hate than he actually deserves. I mean in-spite of the confusing Robo-Robotnik shit from Archie, his writing for Eggman was genuinely great.
That's debatable. Eggman had some fine moments I'll admit, but in retrospect, there were also warning signs for how IDW would choose to portray him. And I still think the entire concept of the Egg Bosses isn't suiting for him: even if he has ways to keep them in place, why would he even bother gathering a whole group of anthros who can talk back at him when he can just use his robots? The Egg Bosses weren't even that powerful on their lonesome.
If you think Flynn gets "a bit" too much hate, how would you describe the legit vitriol thrown in the direction of not only Pontaff, but also SEGA themselves? You guys sure never seem to be in a rush to come to THEIR defense, and it also doesn't help that every time I or my friends bring this double standard up, the rest of you keep dodging the question and go right back to saying the guy who dips his fingers in nearly every section of the franchise and continues to be placed on a golden pedestal despite his writing often being mediocre at best is the one who has it bad.
