Did you all tune in for the Tiktok/Twitter takeover? It was hilarious! It really made my day! I had to doodle a couple of my favorite moments.

Everyone adores Tails 🥺

You can't not adore Tails

Tails is so little sibling coded that even Eggman will make an exception to hug him.

he's the baby of the group

i cant get screenshots of it because my laptop starts shitting itself every time i try but "i find my magnetic personality quite attractive" "and yet when youre near me i feel repulsed" LOVE LOSES 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[egg-emperor]

lol at Eggman laughing and saying "completely fair" when told he's likely not invited to Vanilla's dinner. I know he's thinking to himself "well I did just kidnap her daughter again to use her to help harness and abuse a new power and then tried to kill her after saying she outlived her usefulness" and is giggling cheekily about it to himself knowing how terrible he is and loving it 💜

Sonic the Hedgehog and why he's impossible to write Perfectly

(including me i could not get him right if my life depended on it)

is this me giving up on trying to find the perfect way to write him? Maybe

i've been making lots and lots of notes on a bunch of his characterizations and the differences between them, including what makes any of them Better than the others and it's been .inconclusive

but i think ive found the problem. i can't accurately describe him as a character in general in one sentence without getting too specific or listing stuff like 'fast'

and i think that's one of the only things that stays consistent between all the different media he's in

one of my favorite examples of all this is sonic's lack of a solid theme. he has themes, yes. but they change with every game and tend to be the main theme Of the game. not just sonic. so he doesn't really have one of his own like most other characters.

just gonna plug this video again. it talks about sonic leitmotifs and character themes and how they're used to define each character and it's really cool check it out :]

all this comes with a blessing and a curse. there's always someone who will like one characterization and someone else who will Absolutely Despise it. and honestly that's just sonic's thing. especially with sonic media as a whole

there are definitely ways to mess up sonic's character. it's been done many times. but that's when the writers completely dismiss sonic's core values (but let's be honest even those are flexible and everyone still does them differently)

so. if someone has the golden formula to writing sonic please please please i am on my hands and knees i need to know how it's done

but until i figure it out. im just gonna stick to this. ->

TLDR: sonic is so complex and so simple at the same time and i cannot find any one way to describe him. there are infinite ways to write him and it's honestly better to just not worry about getting it perfect and have fun with it :]

Eggman being asked about how he survived cyberspace implies that Frontiers’ events already took place, which means this man just lost his daughter and is now getting roasted by teenagers.

HELLO???? AMY HYPERFIXATION???????

[neurotypical-sonic]

EGGMAN LIKING LULLABIES. BECAUSE OF SAGE

Breaking News! Dark Gaia has been released from the center of the Earth once again due to a hammer swing from local pink hedgehog Amy Rose! More at 5!

For the record yes I am working on the comic for the Mecha Takeover AU like I promised I would after issue 4 came out. I’ve just been working out the story ;3 and my art

Shadow leaving a note for Tails in case someone asks him his favorite flower because he couldn't be there at the Takeover, he really wanted to infodump about his interests (or he assumed someone might have asked about his favorite flower for reasons but who can tell)
