Suit yourself Miles Per Hour 💙

So when Knuckles needs help fighting ghosts off of Angel Island, we automatically believe him. ...but when I see Jeff The Killer in the closet suddenly I'm "overreacting" and "need to go back to bed"? I see how it is.

Ya know lil bro, have you ever wondered that MAYBE the reason you keep seeing Jeff the Killer in the closet may be due to your unfiltered access to the Internet and your inherent love for those “creepy lasagnas” or whatever they’re called?

So yes, go back to bed 💙

@phoebe-the-metarot

do you like your chili dogs with or without onions?

[I hope throwing my OC at you is ok! if not, just treat this as a normal ask]

Nice to meet you Phoebe! I couldn’t help but chuckle a bit at this ask cuz I LOVE ALL KINDS OF CHILIDOGS! And onions are no exception from my chili dog tastes 💙

While I’ve gotten the chance to travel around and try all sorts of chili dogs, I also preferably love my chili dogs extra spicy 🔥 (that’s lots of jalapeños)there’s no greater feeling than having a nice spicy frank with a jug of ice cold water on a summer day!

[theblublurr]

Talk about a low budget rivalry!

sonic, are you a fan of sunglasses? or are you one of those USELESS SUNGLASSES HATERS

Woah neat my first ask! Sunglasses huh, hmmm

Can’t really say I am

[theblublurr]

This place has the most perfect spots for a sunbath ever! It was hard for me to stay awake during our trip to the citadel lol.

AND HEY I love gift shops! I think it’s partly the professors fault, he encouraged me to collect as many as possible to show him during one of my other adventures, safe to say it’s now a habit of mine!

Also @alteredjakal

Tails hasn't stopped yapping about WWII fighter planes for DAYS NOW, while I’m always impressed by my lil bros knowledge in these things… THIS IS YOUR DOING 🫵

Greetings from Mazuri!

Been a while since we updated you, hasn't it?! :D Sonic and I just got done visiting the Savannah Citadel. Just as beautiful as ever, especially at night! There... was an incident where I had to drag Sonic out of the gift shop cause he wouldn't leave willingly. It happens! We all lose a little control. The food is so delicious! I've been binging on Dondora fruit and boy, why didn't you guys tell me about this? Scrumptious! And as for that new plane I got a couple days ago... well, let's just say that with a little molecular reduction, anything's portable. We've got a new companion, and if ever I need that authentic British fighter plane feel, I can grow it right back to normal size! ^w^

While I’m not really sure why you’re giving my bro a “mosquito” or whatever, ehhh I don’t see why not! 

*reveals a giant pit full of mints* This will surely be your undoing, fox.

Indulge in your basest desires, and perish in total bliss, as your greed consumes you.

... @theblublurr Soniiiiiiic there's a bunch of weirdos trying to sell me stuff again!

[theblublurr]

Hit the road bucko. We’re all minted out 💙

Either it was too late in the evening for this, or Tails was still feeling crappy after his mentha-infused crash out. One or the two.

Despite his stomachache, messy fur, and currently-terminal case of the grumps, the fox had managed to make his way to the Tornado, where a familiar blue hedgehog sat on the wing with his legs dangling off the edge, swinging back and forth.

“You wanted to talk?” Tails murmured, voice still a little scratchy after hours of screaming his head off.

Sonic gave the fox a warm smile, putting away what looked like his already worn out nokia back into his quills. He patted the spot next to him, the steel of the plane echoing in a rhythmic fashion.

“Sure do bud, mind coming up here for a sec?”

The familiar fluttering sounds of Tails’ namesakes winding up and taking off reached Sonic’s ears as his little brother floated upwards to join him on the wing. Definitely sounded more lethargic than usual.

It took a couple seconds for anyone to say anything, but Tails soon cleared his throat to kick things off.

“I meant what I said…” Tails mumbled, rubbing his arm in a mixture of self-consciousness and reluctance to admit he was overreacting just a bit.

“We were gonna do so much cool stuff in Apotos, but of course I had to butt in and mess that up.”

Sonic let the silence linger for a bit longer, looking up towards the setting sun on the hilltop that the tornado was parked upon. He let out a breath, nudging the kit playfully.

“Dude, who said you messed up? I’ve been having a blast with you here ya know.”

“Yeah, you always say that you do whenever we hang out. That’s more evidence to put on the pile that you give me way too much credit.”

Tails leaned back a little bit, propping himself up on his hands as he gazed up towards the night sky. The multi-layered tones of sunset were, at a snail’s pace, transforming into the peaceful blue and black of the night. Stars were beginning to reveal themselves once again.

A shame that the fox wasn’t in much of a mood to appreciate it at the moment.

“I’m sorry, Sonic, but you can’t argue that you would’ve had way more of a blast if I didn’t lose my cool and derail things. I don’t think a day is automatically good just because I’m there, but it feels like that’s how you act sometimes.”

Tails sighed and lolled his head back, ears lazily flicking.

Sonic was starting to feel troubled by this line of thinking, especially coming from someone who he knew struggled with his confidence in the past. He wasn’t keen to let Tails regress in his mental health progress that easily.

“Hey, come on, don’t talk about yourself like that!” Sonic frowned a bit. “Way worse things have happened than just you going a little mint-crazy, so try to trust me when I say you don’t have anything to apologize for.”

The grin returned to the hedgehog’s face: “Besides, it was fun!”

His words certainly didn’t fall on deaf ears. Part of Tails’ gut instinct was to accept Sonic’s reassurances because Chaos knows he craved reassurance sometimes. But there was another part, frankly a louder part, that was feeling more and more contrarian and unwilling to budge.

Tails balled his fists up, his ears folding back against his head.

“You do this every time! Every time I try to have a little bit of self-awareness, you just shut it down! I assume you just know everything about me, better than myself? I’m not allowed to criticize myself, because the great Sonic The Hedgehog thinks I’m wrong, even though he’s also biased but in the opposite direction!”

The angry fox spread his arms out in exasperation. “Am I not allowed to have an opinion on myself anymore?!”

Sonic couldn’t help letting his smile fall, his brother's seemingly unexpected outburst made the hedgehog recoil a bit, his ears pressing up against his quills.

He messed up.

He fidgeted with the cuff of his glove, lowering his head a little lower to catch a bit of Tails’ gaze.

After a moment, he broke the almost suffocating silence.

“Do you remember the day we first met?”

The hedgehog sat in the silent response his brother gave him before continuing.

“You were a lot smaller, and still a super genius then too. You’d follow me around the forests and up the tallest mountains, even when I wasn’t sure you would.”

With a smile growing, Sonic leaned back a bit to watch the stars. “You just kept on surprising me, kept on being the highlight of my day, my life even.”

“Truth is Tails, my life would be really boring without you around. It was, when it was just me, ya know?”

His hand drifted to the fox’s head, moving his hand back and forth. “And, if anyone has anything to apologize for, it’s me.”

“I guess you're just growing up on me faster than I expected. I never really thought about it that way either… and you're right, you don’t need permission either. It’s just, well…”

Sonic wasn’t really sure if he was getting anywhere with this, but he’d try anyway. For Tails.

“I don’t want you to get in the mindset of assuming that if you make a mistake, it’s just this horrible affront to me or anyone else.” He scritched behind Tails’ right ear.

“If we wanna get brutally honest… Yes, you did screw up a bit.” It hurt Sonic’s soul to say that; he hated the possibility of ruining this kid’s esteem any more than his early life circumstances already had. But Tails wanted that level of honesty at the moment, so Sonic was gonna do his best to communicate more maturely.

“But listen to me, Tails…” Sonic gently turned the fox’s head to face him, finally smiling again. “That is NOT the end of the world. And I meant it when I said I had a blast. So sure, this day didn’t turn out the way we wanted it to. We keep moving.”

The hedgehog placed a comforting hand on Tails’ shoulder, hoping that his words struck the right chord. “When these kinds of negative thoughts hit you; let it pass, and keep living. That shows growth.”

“And as I said, in my *very* professional formal apology tumblr post,” Sonic sang his words and playfully pinched Tails’ cheeks, hoping maybe his brother found it amusing. “We’re all growing up. I’m not immune to that, and you don’t have to be.”

“This is our trip lil buddy, not just mine. Besides,” he chuckled, “I never cared for staying on the rails anyways, those are where the best adventures we’ve ever had come from!”

After another pause, Sonic decided to fall on his back, resting on the cold steel on the tornado.

“I’m not saying you’re perfect. I’m saying you’re my friend. You’re my brother. Who could ask for more?”

Tails, for the first time in a few hours, smiled. A real smile, not a hopped-up-on-mint-candy grin, but a genuine heartfelt smile. He playfully batted away Sonic’s hands from his face, giggling to himself.

“You could ask for more. But I’m glad you aren’t.” Tails admitted, steeling himself to be extremely emotionally vulnerable in a way he usually wasn’t.

“I know I can be a perfectionist. But honestly, I don’t wanna be perfect. If I don’t have to be perfect to be your friend, or your brother… then I’d rather just be me.”

Tails pulled himself up, poking Sonic in the side to get him active as well.

“Now, I think my big brother promised me chilidogs-” Tails was interrupted when Sonic disappeared in a flash and a whoosh of wind, coming back a split second later with two piping hot chilidogs in his hands.

“Why did I ever doubt you?” Tails grinned.

“Word of advice baby bro, I’m always prepared for a chili dog night.” After passing the package of heavenly goodness to the fox, Sonic held his dog up in a “cheers” like motion, softly colliding it with Tails’ dog before proceeding to chow down.

For the next few minutes, all was calm as the two partners chowed down on a much-needed meal. High emotions on empty stomachs were difficult sometimes, and this was the perfect antidote.

Once Tails was finished with his dog, he turned his head to the side to see Sonic having already polished off his food minutes earlier. The hedgehog’s eating habits were like a vacuum sometimes.

A mischievous spark returned to Tails’ eyes as he slowly crouched down on the wing of the plane, his namesakes lazily wagging in the air.

“RAH!” Tails jumped in the air, colliding with Sonic in a display of pure whimsy.

Sonic turned to eye the fox a second too late before he felt the weight of his little brother hitting him like a ton of fluffy bricks. Letting out a yelp, the hedgehog began to laugh, some of it out of relief that his little brother seemed to be doing much better than before.

“H-Hey! No fair I wasn’t ready!”

Tails showed no mercy to the unprepared hedgehog. “Rrrrrr,” he playfully growled as he roughoused with his friend in a half-tackle half-hug mix of affection.

The weight of the day’s events seemed to finally be off of their shoulders, and the two of them would enjoy the rest of the night in peace, admiring the stars and taking solace in each other’s company.

Tails is knocked out lol

[theblublurr]

Heya guys! Me and Tails made it to Spagonia a lil while ago, sorry for the late update! Tails and the Professor ended up “catching up with some cucumber sandwiches” while I was taking a nap on the couch.

Let’s just say it’s gonna be a while! Haha

Right now I’m laying against one of the patio bars of one of my favorite restaurants I helped start up again a while back! The man running the place recognized me right away and offered me the best seats in the house, how could a hedgehog refuse!

The stars are coming out tonight veryyy faintly, it’s beautiful out here.

Might go on a night run, I’ll catch ya later!
