I have a friend who loves good writing, but absolutely hates Sonic. I wanted to get him into it, so I've been easing him in a little. it helps that he puts up with my hyper fixations. So I show him this by Flynn.

And he really likes it. So I say I have some more stuff by Flynn, and of course he's curious, so I show him this.

The first Sonic comic he's ever read, and I show him this.

He quite likes it, thinks it's very, very good.

And he turns to me and says, "Ian Flynn was born to write Citizen Kane, but chose to write furry fanfiction." and he now has a strange mix of respect and disgust for Ian Flynn.

Eh. I'll take it.

this blog got killed indirectly by SEGA (which is an insane thing to say) but i will bring it back specifically for this extremely good tag

KYLE CROUSE: Solaris Stane has a question, "Who would be willing to hit below the belt in Sonic if given the chance? Usually that's seen as cheap, but if the threat calls for it, why not?"

IAN FLYNN: Uh... let's see... KYLE: I mean, considering- considering how tall Eggman is compared to everyone else... IAN: [laughing] We're not gonna debate relative positioning of the belt in this universe! We'll be here all day. Uh, anyone on the Babylon Rogues. They'll fight dirty. Shadow will. Rouge will if she absolutely has to -- she has some professional pride, but she's gonna get the job done. KYLE: [chuckles] IAN: Uh, Omega doesn't care about belts; when you've been turned to ash, it doesn't matter. KYLE: Mhm. IAN: Maybe Sonic, if you really pushed him into a corner? I- he wouldn't really fight dirty, but, y'know, if he's just kind of lashing out -- if it happens, it happens. KYLE: Ee-yup. [Starting next question] Alright, here's one from The Might Of Geburah-- IAN: Oh! And-- KYLE: Oh? IAN: And Surge. Surge would do it on purpose. That's her first strike. KYLE: Oh, I mean, yeah! [laughs] I thought that went without saying!

KYLE CROUSE: We’re back, and we’ve got a question from Sockerkott! “I work as a forklift driver transporting large domestic appliances like Refrigerators, Microwave ovens, Washing machines and dryers. How would various Sonic characters each handle that job?”

IAN FLYNN: Uh, Sonic doesn’t have the patience for that kind of deliberate maneuverability. Tails is fine. In fact, he’ll figure out a way to automate it, if he hasn’t already. KYLE: Yeah. IAN: Amy… I think she’d get a handle on it. She’d be alright. Knuckles? Do not trust him with that, nothing will be intact by the end of it. He’ll just get frustrated with it and pick it up and put it there himself. And Eggman, we already know he’s certified. KYLE: Yes. [reading chat] Silver thinks the forklift is stupid, because he just… [laughs] all he has to do is just think about lifting a thing up, and it goes up! It’s like, “I don’t need that!” IAN:[chuckles at the thought, then smugly, as Silver] “Oh, you need a machine to lift things! How quaint.” KYLE: [still laughing] Yeah, pretty much! IAN: He’s like, flexing as everything flies into place. [as Silver] “That one goes over there, and that one goes over there… oooh, done in record time!” KYLE: Yes! Yeah, pretty much! [laughing] IAN: Careful, Silver, you’re starting to sound like Randy Savage, there. KYLE: T-Tang— [laughs] Yeah! Tangle’s trying to use, uh, her tail to stabilize something on the forklift. [losing composure laughing at the thought] It’s not working! Oh no! IAN: [as Silver] “No, guys, guys, guys, she can totally lift it all the way to the top! She just needs to stabilize it a little bit! Trust me! This’ll— she can put stuff even higher! You’ll see, you’ll see, you’ll see! Oop…” KYLE: And there goes. [chuckles] Oh, boy. IAN: But don’t worry, Silver catches it as it falls over. KYLE: Of course. IAN: [smugly, as Silver] “Oops! Did you drop something? Don’t worry… I caught it.” KYLE: [laughing] Pretty much! … Oh, darn, it could’ve dropped on Starline! What the heck?! [both laugh] IAN: [as Starline] “I wasn’t even doing anything evil this time! Come on, now!” KYLE: Starline, you’re always doing something evil! IAN: [as Starline] “True, true.” KYLE: [laughing] After all, a forklift is an efficient way of killing. Forklift simulator… guess I’ll see you later! —– TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE: Please remember that nothing that is said on BumbleKast is canon!

kyle approves of the fact that this website calls him "kyle bumblekast" btw

[bumblekastclips]

is there any chaotix questions or some about Charmy by any chance

There certainly are! Do you have any ideas for what you'd like to see? Character reactions, relationship dynamics, etc? Tomorrow I can start combing through the masterlist :)

Happy Throwing Him Thursday!

KYLE CROUSE: Next question is from @rabbithaver. “In 2018, you wrote IDW Sonic #14, which contained panels of Silver being thrown by the ankle by Metal Sonic. On May 19, 2022, tumblr user @catgirlkirigiri posted those panels with the caption, 'Happy Throwing Him Thursday.' Now, every Thursday, Sonic Tumblr celebrates by partaking in throwing Silver. Each week, participants render their followers' dashboards unusable by reblogging those panels dozens of times in a row. People have drawn fan art. There are multiple videos of people throwing their Silver plushies, including one of him being hurled off a five story balcony. In celebration of the two year anniversary of the first Throwing Him Thursday, would you both please rank Sonic characters based on how far you think you, personally, could throw them?” [TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE: The balcony mentioned was seven stories, not five, which is much funnier.]

IAN FLYNN: [in exaggerated horror] Two years?! KYLE: [laughing] IAN: My poor boy has been yeeted for two years?! KYLE: He’s getting yeeted! He’s getting yeeted like crazy! IAN: I feel bad! KYLE: [laughs] IAN: I’m glad folks are enjoying themselves, but… what have I done to the poor boy? KYLE: [still laughing] Ah, well, I mean, the fandom got a— the fandom got attached to it. To be fair, you know. You did it once. [chuckles] IAN: And really, the credit should go to Tracy Yardley and the other artists for rendering it, but hm… KYLE: True, true. [chuckling] IAN: Half-tempted to sneak in a panel somewhere. [as Sonic] “Happy Thursday, Silver!” [as Silver, panicked as he’s being reminded of his trauma] “WHY?!” KYLE: [erupts into laughter, then as Silver] “What is this?!” [laughs] Man, if you made a reference to Throwing Him Thursday, I think the— I think there’s a lot of Tumblr people who would melt down. In a— you know, in a good way. IAN: [chuckling to himself] Shadow just puts him off a— puts him out a window. [as Shadow] “Huh, is it Thursday already?” KYLE: [laughing] Oh, man… IAN: Anyway, characters that we could throw on a Thursday — or any day, really. KYLE: Any day. I could throw— I could throw— I could take Charmy. [chuckles] IAN: Yeah, Charmy, Cheese… KYLE: But then I’d have to contend with not being able to throw Vector and Espio as they murder me. [laughs] IAN: [chuckles, then as Vector] “Nice arm there, Kyle! Wanna see how [unintelligible] it is?” KYLE: [laughs] Oh! IAN: And I imagine Cream, but only because she wants to, like, take off, so she’s already got her ears ready, and you’re like, out in an open field, and it’s like throwing a kite into the air or something. She’s having a grand time, just, “whee!” KYLE: Yeah, she can fly. [chuckles] IAN: Uh… how heavy is Tails, actually? KYLE: Eh, I don’t think Tails is very, uh, heavy, and he’d fly, so… you know IAN: I’m gonna look this up real quick. KYLE: You could throw Froggy a little bit— [stuttering unintelligibly] a little bit far. You know. IAN: [as Big] “Once.” KYLE: Once. [laughs] IAN: Huh! Actually Tails is like, over forty pounds! KYLE: Okay, he’s a… IAN: That’s not really a throw, that’s more of a heft. KYLE: He’s a beefy— he’s a beefy boy then, huh? Wow. [chuckles, then reading chat] I’m being told that Ray was born to be yeeted. [laughs] IAN: [chuckles] You know that’s what he and Mighty do all the time. KYLE: Of course! IAN: It’s kinda like— it’s like with Cream! KYLE: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. IAN: [as Mighty] “Ready, little guy?” [as Ray] “Ready!” Woosh! KYLE: Yeah, pretty much, exactly. IAN: How much does Orbot weigh? KYLE: He’s pretty small, but he’s also a robot, so who knows how dense he is? Uh… IAN: If he even has an official weight… [Googling] Uh, he is— holy crap, he’s over sixty pounds! KYLE: Yeah, I was gonna say, he’s probably real dense. He’s got a lot in him. [chuckles] IAN: [sigh] I could probably pick him up and hmph, but yeah, I ain’t throwin’ that. Goodness. KYLE: The irony is that you’d think Cubot would be the dense one! IAN: [chuckles] Well, now I’m curious, if Orbot is sixty-six point one pounds… KYLE: He would be one really heavy bowling ball, at least. [laughs] IAN: Self-steering, no less. KYLE: Yeah! IAN: [Googling] Oh, wow. Cubot’s, uh, almost eighty-six pounds. KYLE: Oh! He’s dense— he’s even more dense! IAN: He’s a hefty boy! KYLE: [laughs] IAN: So, yeah.

KYLE: Nice. [chuckles] Yes. Ah, yes. [reading chat] Cubot, the honorable— or, Orbot, the honorable Whipple. IAN: [snickers] KYLE: Welcome to the Whipple family. [chuckling] I don’t know if we could really throw any of them? I mean, sure, a giant mech could throw Jewel, as we’ve established previously, but I don’t know if I could. She’s pretty— she’s pretty big for a bug. IAN: Yeah, I… she might need to be hefted, not really thrown. KYLE: Yeah, yeah. You could throw a chao. IAN: Yeah. KYLE: You can throw Marine, maybe. IAN: Well, now I’m curious, uh… Charmy’s like twenty-two pounds. KYLE: Why is he so freakin’ huge? He’s a bee! [laughs] IAN: And I would imagine Jewel’s at least that weight, so… KYLE: Y-yeah…? [stuttering] How heavy are pounds on Sonic’s world?! IAN: [laughs] I mean, you could still maybe throw Charmy, but you’d have to put your back into it. You’d have to, like, limber up first. KYLE: Yeah! IAN: And just because we brought it up, you know, the idea is Cream’s just kinda using this as an excuse to be thrown, but— [Googling] she’s twenty-six pounds. She’s barely heavier than Charmy. What in the world? KYLE: [chuckling] What? What?! IAN: But yeah, I could definitely pick her up over my head and kinda, fwoop, and then she’d flap and she’d fly, and she’d have a fun time. KYLE: Yeah, yeah… yeah, yeah, I think they’re all a bit too heavy. It’s that— it’s that dang Beach Ball Head Syndrome they got going on. [chuckles] Those giant heads, you know?

Whatever you think this is going to be, you're very wrong. Script under the cut.

Friends, Nermies, countrymen, lend me your ears;

I come to bury Froggy, not to praise him.

The evil that men do lives after them;

The good is oft interred with their bones;

So let it be with Froggy. The noble Miles

Hath told you Froggy was ambitious:

If it were so, it was a grievous fault,

And grievously hath Froggy answer’d it.

Here, under leave of Miles and the rest–

For Miles is an honourable man;

So are they all, all honourable men–

Come I to speak in Froggy’s funeral.

He was my friend, faithful and just to me:

But Miles says he was ambitious;

And Miles is an honourable man.

He hath brought many captives home to Mobius.

Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill:

Did this in Froggy seem ambitious?

When that the poor have cried, Froggy hath wept:

Ambition should be made of sterner stuff:

Yet Miles says he was ambitious;

And Miles is an honourable man.

You all did see that on the Lupercal

I thrice presented him a kingly crown,

Which he did thrice refuse: was this ambition?

Yet Miles says he was ambitious;

And, sure, he is an honourable man.

I speak not to disprove what Miles spoke,

But here I am to speak what I do know.

You all did love him once, not without cause:

What cause withholds you then, to mourn for him?

O judgment! thou art fled to brutish beasts,

And men have lost their reason. Bear with me;

My heart is in the coffin there with Froggy,

And I must pause till it come back to me.

[bumblekastclips]

KYLE CROUSE: And here’s one from N’Oni. “An enterprising group of wildlife biologists have taken an interest in the territorial habits of hedgehogs. They're given a research grant and begin their project... tranquilizing Sonic, Shadow, Amy, and Silver. The four hedgehogs are weighed, measured, and finally fitted with radio tracking collars and ear tags before being released back into the wild. What are their reactions to what is without a doubt the weirdest day of their lives?”

IAN FLYNN: Uh, Sonic realizes that they’re trying to get tracking data off him, and takes that as a challenge. He’s gonna go fast enough that it fries every circuit they have. KYLE: Good luck. [laughs] Good luck tryin’ to keep up with this! IAN: Amy will find a way to make it fashionable. You know, if she’s stuck with it, she’s at least going to make it work. Silver… is a little weirded out because he didn’t think the tagging and collaring started for another ten years. At least, that’s not how history went. KYLE: Oh no. IAN: But at least the revolution is gonna be right around the corner. KYLE: Oh no! [chuckling] IAN: Wait, this collar doesn’t suppress his powers… who did this?! What— why did they do this? Now he’s really confused. KYLE: [chuckles] IAN: And Shadow will just hunt them down. KYLE: Mm. Shadow would’ve woken up before they even left! [laughing] He would’ve got— he would’ve gone Mutant X on ‘em. IAN: All the researchers wake up with their own collars and ear tags, and he’s just standing over them. KYLE: Yeah! [chuckles] Yeah… yeah. IAN: Luckily, Amy made it a fashion trend, so they’re perfectly fine with it. KYLE: Yeah, yeah. Thanks Amy.

Hey,

Idk if you're doing transcriptions at the moment, but if you are, would it be possible to get my question Vector's question about the cookbook transcribed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8HZ8zy-G5k&t=3059s

Thanks :D

I'm still kinda iffy on how many requests I want to take, but I've actually had this one on my list of ones I've wanted to do, so... here's the transcript!

Thanks for your request!

[bumblekastclips]

KYLE CROUSE: Alright, and uh… uh, he— hey, what’s Vector doing in here? What does he want?! VECTOR THE CROCODILE: Eh, boss. You know I love ‘ya, but I got a bone to pick with you. You ask me, "Vector, what do you like to eat?" I says, "a jar of pesto and discount spaghetti. Feeds two and a half idiots for a week." You say, "Great! got it!" I hear nothing back. Charmy comes home with the book from the library all excited and bouncin’ around. I take a look at the "Tangled Leads of a Delicious Mystery" recipe that Charmy points out to me saying he wants to- he wants it and see the ingredients list. A THIRD OF A CUP O' PINE NUTS?! That’s like 10 bucks of nuts! Then we add in the fancy cheeses and basil? What happened to the cheap pesto? Of course I says no. Now I’ve got a bee in meltdown, a chameleon who had a "sudden and urgent" mission in Casino Night Zone, and me stuck with pasta that nobody's eatin'. So... my question: “Can I borrow like 10$?” Stupid thing looks good.

KYLE: [laughs] Fine, you can have ten bucks, Vector. IAN FLYNN: Look, Vector, bubby, all I did was help you guys get your interviews in for the cook book, okay? Then it was given to Inside Editions and they did their thing with the recipes and making it a little more fancy and what-not. And I kinda saw this coming, that’s why I coached Sonic a bit, and he says, you know, these recipes are suggestions. Y’know, add or subtract as much as you want. Add your own flair. Keep it simple, if you want. These are general ideas. Maybe a little embellished, but what’s a good story without a bit of embellishment, huh? Huh? KYLE: [laughs] Yes, yes. Now get outta here, we don’t have enough room in this studio for all three of us! IAN: [chuckles] That’s gonna wrap it up for this edition of the BumbleKast. [outro fades in]

[bumblekastclips]

BODY SWAP: Shadow and Cream

KYLE CROUSE: [referring to the topic of the mini] Alright, here’s one suggested by HappyTimes. “Shadow and Cream?”

IAN FLYNN: [snerk] Everyone’s a little surprised that Shadow seems to be making a concentrated effort to go around and make nice. Apologize for any rude comments he may or may have not said. KYLE: [laughs] IAN: He just, he’s been very grumpy, and he shouldn’t take that out on others, so he’s here to apologize, just in case, and he hopes that they can be friends in the future. Meanwhile… Cream is on the warpath, riding around on the motorcycle as fast as she can. [as Cream] “Where’s that damn bodysnatcher?!” KYLE: [laughing] Oh, no! Give her a gun. IAN: [chuckles, then as Cream] “Cheese! Get ‘em!” KYLE: Oh, no. Oh, no! Terrifying, I love it. [yawning] Absolutely love it. Tear him to pieces!

[bumblekastclips]

KYLE CROUSE: And DDRMASTERM has our last question before we take a break. “One night, Tangle wishes upon a star that she had a twin sister and the next morning discovers that the wish was granted…somehow. How do Tangle, Jewel, Whisper, Lanolin, and the Chaotix react to this?”

IAN FLYNN: I mean, Tangle’s excited. Her wish came true, and… we’re just going to assume that Wrangle is, you know, on her wavelength. KYLE: [laughs at the name] IAN: You know, it’s the sister that she’s always wanted! KYLE: Oh, there’s two of them… IAN: Yeah, but Wrangle has a Southern drawl, because… yeehaw. KYLE: [chuckles] IAN: And Jewel is just very, very tired, ‘cause she can handle one, but now there’s two, and she just hasn’t… [exhaustedly] she doesn’t have enough time or energy in the day to handle this. Why? Why did this wish come true, you know? Not the grant for the museum, no, no, no! [frustrated, unserious] Now you have two Tangles! KYLE: Oof. [laughs] IAN: Uh, Whisper… [sigh] we’ll do the lazy thing. Y’know, she blushes because there’s now two of her girlfriend, haha, shipping joke. KYLE: Ha. IAN: Lanolin, pretty much the same boat as Jewel. If they can focus, then they’ll be an incredible asset ‘cause now you have two of them… if you can get them to focus. If. KYLE: Eh, just point ‘em in the direction they need to go, and they’ll go. IAN: And the Chaotix are befuddled because the, uh, tail sisters are forcing them into a case to find out where Tangle got to, and they’re purposefully showing up in different parts of the city, looking identical, and throwing them off the case and really confusing them, ‘cause that’s hilarious! KYLE: [chuckles] IAN: [as Espio] “Vector, I’m beginning to think there’s two Tangles.” [as Vector] “Don’t be ridiculous, there’s only one, thank heavens!” KYLE: [laughs] Oh, no! Oh, no, Vector, I got some bad news for ‘ya, buddy. [chuckles]

[bumblekastclips]

KYLE CROUSE: Here’s one from— a SuperChat from Joey the Sonic fan. “What’s every IDW Sonic villain’s favorite food?” Go ahead.[TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE: I clipped some audio of technical difficulties here, hence the somewhat abrupt cut.]

IAN FLYNN: Favorite food… we’ve seen Eggman with his giant hoagies, so we’re gonna assume he likes a good sandwich. KYLE: I, uh, I also enjoy a good sandwich. [chuckles] IAN: Uh, Starline also appreciates a good sandwich because that’s what the Doctor eats, and therefore it’s clearly what he should enjoy immensely. KYLE: Yup, mhm. IAN: Um, Rough and Tumble like the absolute greasiest, cheapest, nastiest take-out pizza. Like, it’s cardboard with ketchup. It’s vile, no one should like it, they are the only people who eat it, and they swear that it’s a delicacy. KYLE: Uh-huh. [laughs] IAN: Um… let’s see. Surge really enjoyed chili dogs until she found out that was Sonic’s thing, and now she hates them. KYLE: Uh-huh, but she also still really likes them… just secretly. IAN: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Um, so what— what is like, the antithesis of a chili dog? …Bacon cheeseburger? KYLE: [chuckles] I don’t know. It seems those are complimentary, I don’t know… IAN: [unintelligible] ‘Cause I don’t see— I don’t think she would even go so far as to, like, eat a salad. KYLE: Switch over to health food? IAN: Yeah. Maybe she— KYLE: Or maybe she just eats— IAN: Nah, maybe she embraces the chili dog because it’s going to be her chili dog from now on. That’s her thing. KYLE: I was just gonna say, maybe she just eats the hot dog with no bun, or anything. IAN: [laughs] Just grabs a fistful of chili, grabs the hot dog at the same time, shoves the whole thing into her face? KYLE: [interrupting] No, no, no chili. Just the dog. She doesn’t even cook it, she just rips it right out of the package and starts gnawing on it like a freakin’ dog. IAN: [laughing] KYLE: There you go! IAN: Ah, and Mimic enjoys shaved ice. KYLE: There you go, sure. Why not? [chuckles] Not much of a food, but… and I should know, I eat a lot of ice. I’m one of those perpetual ice chewers. IAN: Mhm, right there with ‘ya.
