Congrats on reaching a new milestone, Wayfinder!!!

As for the Sketch Request, Sonic often comforts Tails over his fear of storms, but have we ever seen Tails do the same for Sonic over his fear of water? 👀

They just got out of the water section of Aquatic Ruins and he's being so brave about it 💕

Thank you @multiisketch ;v;

Request 1/5 for today! More will be coming next week ^v^

I will continue to call The Creature “Frankenstein” and no force in Heaven or Earth will impede that.

I have not seen either of these yet... I had the chance to see Rise, but I knew that it was full of subversions of the normal TMNT tropes, so I wanted to watch the other series before I started this one. The only problem is that I don't know where to watch the other series in full without paying for another subscription service or pirating...

Still, I'm reblogging to spread the word. I may not be part of this, but I know that this is great for you guys. So yeah.

Everyone reblog this IMMEDIATELY

So regarding your Fleetway IDW AU, how would Shadow and Espio react to this twisted variant of Super Sonic, knowing that their criticism regarding his decision to spare Mr. Tinker is what pushed him down that path?

What is the Fleetway IDW AU? Click Here for the Comic | Notes

Hmmmm, that's tricky! Let's start with the easier one:

Espio

I think Espio would feel guilty if he knew his words drove Sonic to this point. He clearly was under a lot of stress during the Spiral Hill Rescue given he had just lost Vector and Charmy at the Resistance HQ, so his outburst was uncharacteristic. You can see he instantly regretted it a few panels later when he and Sonic stare at each other, sweating. They move on quickly because Espio realizes he was wrong, but there's no time for apologies. They have people to save and protect.

Espio is the type of person who is willing to voice his opinion on a serious matter, but will defer to those he sees as more experienced--such as Sonic and Vector--for the final say. They are the leaders. Not him. But that doesn't mean he necessarily likes the decisions that are made. With Sonic's decision to leave Mr. Tinker alone and Vector's decision to contain Zombot Charmy, Espio trusted their decision-making because he knew they had good intentions despite his concerns with their plans. However, his compliance led to disaster both times. Eggman returned and Zombot Charmy got out.

Espio would be completely devastated to find that his inability to keep his own emotions in check drove someone he respects to the point that Sonic is driven as Fleetway. And, of course, Fleetway would use this to his every advantage even if it's not necessarily the whole truth. Luckily, Espio would have Vector and Charmy to back him up this time. They wouldn't let him bare the weight of his guilt for too long and, likely, be able to convince him that if he truly wants to make it up to Sonic then they need to stop him from destroying himself over his guilt, too.

Shadow

Oh, boy. Talk about a character that is hard to nail down a reaction for! I'm going to frame this analysis based on my understanding of IDW Shadow since that is the canon we're working in, so if anything seems out of character, I apologize.

Shadow, at his most basic, uncomplicated level, respects Sonic. Their rivalry would seem more so based on the fact that Shadow doesn't necessarily appreciate Sonic's carefree, hopeful outlook on a world he views as harsh and unforgiving. It frustrates him when Sonic continues to save the day with a bright smile and friendship because the last time he trusted the light, it was shot dead in front of him. Shadow is critical of Sonic's naivete, but he still values his optimism and the fact that Sonic's approach usually works out for the better. Which is why when Sonic argues that Mr. Tinker deserves forgiveness over MEMORY LOSS just like SHADOW DID, Shadow thinks twice.

And yet, in the end, Shadow believes his darker world view is proven right. Another light was extinguished and now people are hurting. He should have known better given his experience, but Sonic convinced him so he pushes the blame and gets himself into trouble in the process (more on why Shadow did that here).

And then Sonic saves the day without him. And now Shadow gets to ponder more on Sonic's way of thinking. About how, deep-down, he knows letting Mr. Tinker live is what Maria would have wanted despite the trouble it had caused. Because in the end Sonic's approach ends with everyone happy and healthy. Sonic doesn't run because he's a coward, he runs to give people the opportunity for betterment. To fight another day.

So, when Fleetway shows up, Shadow doesn't necessarily feel guilty for his words. No. If anything he feels melancholic. Here is this shining beacon of goodness in the world that could never be tarnished dipped in poisoned gold. Shadow would be cruel. He would insult Sonic till his last breath because how dare Sonic let himself get to this state! How dare Sonic let himself become a shadow of his former self? The moment Fleetway tells Shadow his words put him down this path, Shadow would be angry beyond measure. Because now he knows this isn't Sonic. Sonic would never let something as trivial as all that get to him this badly... r-right?

Right?

In summary, Espio feels guilty but uses those feelings to try to relate to how Sonic feels. Shadow gets angry because he could have never imagined Sonic dipping his toes into the same darkness he deals with everyday.

I hope that was what you were looking for, Fazar!

Young Vanilla and Clutch

Did Vanilla and Clutch throw down in the past? Would be pretty cool! This was fun to imagine! Also, Vanilla would be the one to get Slinger onto a better path, which leads to him joining the Diamond Cutters.

RIP to their insides (god damn it, Shadow, you didn't have to turn a nice chili dog lunch into a hot sauce endurance contest).

I forgot all about the Snapcube hot sauce thing when making this XD I was inspired after farting around in my local McKay's for a bit.

Follow-up:

Pretty sure Tails will ban ultra-spicy sauces from his place from now on.

On a side note, I'm gonna take a break from Sonic stuff. I'm starting to get burned out.
