Sonic and the Jewel Fairies

Another day, another potential crossover.  

If you’re on this blog, I’m assuming you’ve heard of Sonic the Hedgehog.  But who are the Jewel Fairies?  

They’re the stars of the fourth series of Rainbow Magic books.  India, Scarlett, Emily, Chloe, Amy, Sophie and Lucy are responsible for making sure different types of fairy magic are working.  In their story, the seven magical gemstones in Queen Titania’s crown are stolen by Jack Frost, and it’s up to Rachel and Kirsty (the human protagonists) to find and return them before all the fairies of Fairyland lose their magic powers forever.  

Here are the seven gemstones, their colours, and their corresponding magic: 

Moonstone (white and pink): Dream Magic

Garnet (red): Growing and Shrinking Magic

Emerald (green): Seeing Magic (i.e. looking into the future)

Topaz (orange/yellow): Changing and Transforming Magic

Amethyst (purple): Appearing and Disappearing Magic

Sapphire (blue): Wishing Magic

Diamond (cyan and white): Flying Magic

The gemstones are white, red, green, orange/yellow, purple, blue and cyan.  Where have we seen those colours before?  

The Chaos Emeralds.  

Imagine if the individual Chaos Emeralds could bestow unique magical abilities.  That would be pretty cool.  

But it gets cooler.  

I’m a big fan of the Chaos Emerald Theory.  Originating with @birdsareblooming​ and developed by @autisticshadowthehedgehog​, the theory states that Sonic Wachowski has powers similar to Chaos Control because he himself is a Chaos Emerald, and that six other Sonic characters make up the remaining emeralds.  

The current roster includes Sonic, Tails, Amy, Cream, Shadow, Silver and Blaze.  

(Amy’s here because the green emerald has been turned pink to differentiate it from the Master Emerald.)  

Now let’s see how their colours and abilities match up with the Jewel Fairies’ magical gemstones: 

Cream = cyan = Diamond = Flying Magic.  Cream flies with her ears.  That lines up nicely.  

Amy = pink (formerly green) = Emerald = Seeing Magic.  Amy reckons she can use her tarot cards to see into the future.  Again, it’s a pretty good fit.  

Blaze = purple = Amethyst = Appearing and Disappearing Magic.  Blaze can make fire appear, and Issue 4 of the IDW comic implies she can put flames out too.  If this ability could be expanded to other elements and objects, she’d match the Amethyst fairly well.  Plus, the Amethyst Fairy is quite shy, which would align with Blaze’s more reserved personality.  

Tails = orange/yellow = Topaz = Changing and Transforming Magic.  This one is a bit more of a stretch, but Tails is an inventor, and inventing is all about taking the materials you’ve got and turning them into something new.  So why don’t we just make Tails a sorcerer?  

Silver = white = Moonstone = Dream Magic.  Silver’s theme from Sonic 06 is called “Dreams of an Absolution”, and that is literally the only reason I’m putting him here.  

Shadow = red = Garnet = Growing and Shrinking Magic.  Definitely the most tenuous link of the bunch.  All I can say is that Black Doom is able to separate his third eye from the rest of his body to create Doom’s Eye, which is a bit like shrinking?  Maybe?  

Sonic = blue = Sapphire = Wishing Magic.  Now this is where it gets interesting.  Modern Sonic’s character doesn’t change massively from game to game, but he frequently inspires character growth in others.  Shahra and Merlina are the most notable examples.  He motivates people to better themselves, and gives them whatever they need when they’re struggling.  In other words, he grants their wishes.  

Plus, I saw these cute little posts from @welcome-to-green-hills​ about the headcanon that Tom and Maddie had been trying for kids and then were blessed with Sonic Wachowski, and I’m in love with the idea.  

So there you have it.  An AU of an AU in which the Sonic characters are basically fairies.

Very interesting...

Maybe Jewel will transfer from SH? Maybe she's going to be a parallel to Heather? (a mole sent by RH to spy on SH?) Maybe she has family ties to the school?

There are as many forms of love as there are moments in time

“If your shoes pinch, I can send for Genya. She’ll have another pair ready in a few minutes,” Ivan said, after watching Alina fidget, fuss and finally raise herself on tip-toe, one foot behind the other in what was an unacceptably precarious posture, though the marble railing of the gallery was high enough to keep her from plummeting to her death in the ballroom below. She might only have been maimed by such a fall, landing on one of the elaborately gowned ladies of the Imperial court; a silk skirt with a number of taffeta petticoats would soften the impact enough to allow Alina to escape with a broken hip if she twisted the right way mid-air. If he mentioned any of this to Fedyor, his husband would shake his head at Ivan’s allegedly morbid catastrophizing, which Ivan would insist was simply part of the position as the General’s chief of security. He was not seriously worried about Alina tripping and catapulting herself, but something about the angle of her neck, the way her hand had repeatedly touched the gold fillet at the back of her head, that slender little ankle hooked behind the other stirred something in him. Not pity, not fondness, but there was something of both in the nameless feeling that had led him to speak.

“Oh, the shoes are fine. Lovely. Please don’t bother Genya, she’s done so much to get me ready for tonight. I expect it’s rather a waste, but there’s no use throwing slops to a sick sow as they say,” Alina said, revealing quite a lot. Ivan allowed himself to smile slightly at her choice of idiom, one popular in the rural farmlands of the south.

“They say good kopeks after bad here in Os Alta, because they don’t know the value of a pig. Or the hard work of farming. The otkazat’sya here are all merchants and guildsmen, given to gambling and usury,” Ivan said. “Not much like Keramzin, I imagine.”

“No,” Alina said quickly, then paused. “I suppose not anyway. I don’t know much about Keramzin besides the orphanage. It might have just been something the woman who ran the place said, Ana Kuya. She had a saying for every situation, I used to joke to Mal that she’d written them down in a great big book but Mal said—”

“He was your friend, the one on the skiff,” Ivan said when Alina broke off and made no attempt to resume speaking.

“He was. He’s in the First Army. A tracker. He’d laugh to see me here tonight, like this,” she said.

“Like what?” He suspected he knew what she meant but it was better to let her talk.

“Like a fool, trying to pass herself off as an elegant lady, Tailored and gussied up. Plain, scrawny Alina parading around in a silk kefta and gold slippers, acting like she belongs at the Imperial court,” she said, all in a rush as he’d anticipated. She was even glowing a little around her fingertips as she gesticulated.

“You are Grisha, not one of those silly otkazat’sya women. Sheep, the lot of them,” Ivan said.

“But they are nobles, the Tsar’s nobles, the daughters and wives of the best families,” Alina said. Was she genuinely scandalized? Ivan shrugged to keep from laughing; that he would do later, when he told Fedya about this before they went to sleep.

“And the Tsar is only an otkazat’sya with the most money, who’s fooled them into bowing down to him. He cannot command the wind or the rain, the tides or the flames on a hearth, nor heal the smallest wound,” Ivan said. “They are not worth any adulation, not from a Grisha and certainly not from the Sun Summoner.”

“It’s not just that,” Alina muttered.

“No? What it is then?” Ivan asked.

“They are all so beautiful, so splendid and grand and graceful—all their silks and lace and velvet ribbons, their jewels and combs, they all look completely at ease, natural, like flowers, roses and lilies and orchids. And I look like a Shu drab who’s stolen her mistress’s castoffs, no matter how long and hard Genya worked on me and it was hours, Ivan, hours!”

He had to smile then. She’d never called him by his first name before.

“Genya is a perfectionist. The length of time is not a reflection on your features or complexion,” Ivan said. Alina raised an eyebrow, her expression skeptical and for once, he could see her charm.

“I wouldn’t mind so much for myself but I’ll going to embarrass him,” Alina said.

“You mean General Kirigan,” Ivan said. “That you will shame him in front of the Imperial court.”

She nodded, the misery in her eyes, her pinched lips, the slump of her narrow shoulders in the black silk kefta, the weight of the Corecloth lining visible as it hadn’t been before. He felt her heart beating in her chest, the quickened pace of being found out.

“He would never be ashamed of you, to be seen with you,” Ivan said. “Not even if you looked as wan and plain as you seem to imagine and not like a fresh little wildflower amongst all these forced hothouse blooms.” If Fedya heard him now, Ivan would never hear the end of it…

“You’re just saying that.”

“I prefer to tell the truth,” he said. “It’s easier to keep track of than lies. Lies are tools. Telling you a lie would serve no purpose.”

“But I’m nothing like those women,” she said.

“You’re nothing like anyone. You’re the Sun Summoner and you’re the only Grisha to survive  to adulthood outside the Little Palace with their power suppressed in at least a generation. You’re an orphan who made a family for herself and a mapmaker who found her way home,” Ivan explained. “You must know how he looks at you. How he feels about you, how deeply he cares—”

“How deeply?” she asked, bold then, as she often was, but he knew what she risked to ask him the question.

“Without measure,” he said, unwilling to say anything more, to speak before the General had told her for himself.

“He hasn’t said—”

“He won’t see anyone but you when you enter the ballroom,” Ivan said. “I am not exaggerating for effect, I’ve had to plan for an extra security detail because of it.”

“You’re joking, you’re laughing at me,” Alina protested.

“He signed off on the additional oprichniki himself,” Ivan said.

“He did?”

“He’s General of the Second Army and the head of the Little Palace because he is most astute about risk and vulnerability. He would not allow his pride to endanger either of you,” Ivan said. The General had given him a long look when Ivan put the paper in front of him but he hadn’t argued.

“Thank you, Ivan,” she said. She straightened up and lifted her chin which meant he’d finally convinced her.

“You don’t need to thank me for telling you the truth,” he said.

“That’s your opinion,” she said, with some of the smartness she used with those she was closest to. He did not dislike it. “And that’s not why I thanked you.”

“No?”

“No. I thanked you for being kind when you didn’t need to be,” she said.

“I’m not often accused of being kind, especially not when I don’t need to be,” he replied.

“Who in their right mind would dare?” Alina said, finally, merrily, laughing.

Angst idea??

What if there is the time that they all turned completely feral and no cure to turn them back so the only way is to kill three of them??

Uhhh chile i'm sorry if its too dark for you...

This isn't too dark for ME (and if that remark is in reference to your other question, I do plan to get to it, I just keep forgetting to listen to the song. 😂 My attention span and memory is so shot), I'll just tag the shit out of it.

(If anyone needs me to delete this post, please let me know. My anon should be on, so if you're afraid I or someone else will get mad about you requesting it you can do so that way.)

Okay, so I did mention in the original plotting post that the whole GUN vs Restoration fight started because GUN wanted to shoot the Werehogs to get rid of them, but Jewel was insistent they would not be shot until all other possible solutions have been attempted and have failed.

GUN's only solid argument for shooting them was it'd minimize the amount of civilian injuries, which they certainly proved to be correct on. Even with the Restoration jumping in to fend them off and rescue people who were being attacked, there were still lots of injuries. (Like when they captured Shadow, and almost every single Power character was injured to some degree wrestling the guy down)

She, Tails, and Wave were painfully aware that it might come to putting the Werehogs down. (Which was the hardest for Tails to cope with, because Sonic's one of the three Werehogs.)

Thankfully, it doesn't come to that in my fic. But if it did come to that, it would've been the three of them coming together, seeing if Tails or Wave could come up with any last minute plans to attempt to cure them, and then they'd reluctantly agree that they were out of options and they had to for the sake of the communities.

They would not let GUN do it though. Not in a million years, Sonic, Shadow, and Silver deserve more respect than that. They'd come up with a quick, painless way to put them down.

Jewel, Tails, and Wave would not have come out of that mentally okay though. Wave would *seem* the most unscathed by the event, but she's bottling it up to remain strong and not stress out Jet and Storm further. Tails is obvious (worse than what we saw in Forces. He's a kid and that's his brother after all. :( ), and Jewel... Jewel would crack. Not CS91 Catalyst event levels of cracking (@bitter-sweet-coffee I think is the only person I've shared what happens during the Catalyst event with, but they can vouch that Jewel snaps HARD in that aftermath.), but she'd crack under the guilt of being one of the people making the call to have three of the world's greatest heroes executed.
