#Classic sonic

[000marie198]

This little fanart, and particularly the Continue screen it's based on inspired this

In the sprite, it shows Sonic being all grumpy there due to losing and Tails cheerfully talking to him and pointing ahead.

Classic Sonic can get grumpy a little more easily than Modern, something that seems to be learned over the years. Younger Sonic didn't have anyone first, he made friends gradually through each adventure as he grew and the IDW specials featuring classic era show his character development being there due to his friends. Learning to depend on othersz learning to trust, all of that.

But there's another thing, not giving up is a part of Sonic, it's one of his core traits, he never gives up. But if you think about, Modern Sonic gets optimistic about things even after a loss, most of the time being cheerful and hopeful and encouraging instead of grumpy if something goes South.

He never gives up but there's a difference between optimism combined with that and the former notion being by itself.

I think that Tails is the reason. Here it shows how grumpy Sonic is being, he won't stop trying but he's grumpy about losing, a lot more than he otherwise is as his older self. And Tails is the one cheerfully pointing ahead, filled with hope and optimism.

Raising a kid who would drive away your negativity would definitely affect Sonic in the long run. I believe Tails' optimistic attitude played a part in that aspect of Sonic's character development too. Whenever they would face an obstacle and it would annoy the older, the younger would be there to provide solution and support and keep him on track. Over the years, it would manifest itself into the hopefulness and optimism Sonic has.

Absolutely obsessed with these 0.1 second frames of Shadow smiling right before he beats up his dad

Shadow should be allowed to smile when he's angry more often it's really fun to draw<3
