guys guys guguguguguys. Guys I think I just figured out sonic 06 lore

Ok ok so this has to do with the ending of 06 and the age old question of "where the fuck is Iblis in the current timeline". I think I've figured it out.

Okokok so start with the basics. In Sonic 06, Blaze seals Iblis inside herself and dies. Mephiles goes back in time and fuses with Iblis bedorehand to stop it from happening. After the Solaris bossfight, Sonic and Elise go back in time to kill Solaris. Because I don't think you can just... kill the god of time like that, everything freezes there, and an extant timeline is created a little further back so that things can keep moving.

Since Solaris' death was the trigger for that, it indicates that the main timeline probably can't exist without him in some form. (This might apply to the others, especially considering Movie!Knuckles' flames of disaster, but because Solaris lore is kept under tight lock and key, we might never know.) After that, we didn't know what happened to him- up until Shadow Generations, when it was revealed that Mephiles- one half of the god- was trapped in the White Space the whole time. So that raises the question- where's Iblis? Most people theorise that he's in Blaze's dimension, trapped either in a dormant state within Blaze herself or simply just kept there somewhere away from where he can reunite with Mephiles. That theory relies on the event of Blaze sealing Iblis inside herself during 06- but that makes the timeline messy. The extant timeline was created far back enough that 06 never happened, but somehow Iblis is still inside Blaze or connected to her family line somehow. For that to work, the extant timeline would've had to be created in that future, after Blaze sealed Iblis away. Which is for sure not what happened, given the evidence against it.

However, if Iblis isn't in the White Space and he isn't in Blaze's dimension, then either he's in another timeline entirely- Or he's somewhere in the current timeline sealed away, indicating that the extant timeline was created either during or just after the Solaris Project when everything went wrong. But because Shadow and Silver were there for the Project, and Sonic and Elise killed a whole Solaris, that doesn't make any sense.

So we have a set point that the extant timeline needs to be created at, and the current theories don't quite work. So how can we find a place for Iblis that does work?

Simple. Well, no, not really, but hear me out.

Remember how I said earlier that because Solaris' death was the trigger event for the extant timeline, it likely meant that the timeline couldn't exist without him? We're circling back to that. If both Mephiles and Iblis are in the extant timeline, trapped somewhere (while being outside of time we can still consider Mephiles in the running timeline in a sense) then that would mean Solaris has moved to that timeline and might not be able to exist in the frozen 06 timeline. Yes, he exists in the past present and future all at once, but if the timeline splits into two, who's to say he's still restricted to one? It's possible. To that end, my theory is:

When the timeline moved back and was split, so was Solaris- Mephiles moved into the extant timeline, but was sealed in the White Space surrounding it. If he gets out, he's in the extant timeline, yes, but otherwise he's still sealed away. Iblis, meanwhile, is kept in the frozen 06 timeline- he's there, as a part of Solaris, but everything's stopped, so he can't do anything. That timeline is permanently locked off from entering by anyone (likely other than a full-formed Solaris, or possibly Mephiles since he holds the temporal power).

But why would Iblis be in the frozen dimension, I hear you ask? Because Iblis is more dangerous, of course. Mephiles, as smart and witty and cunning as he is, still has restricted levels of power, and he's smart enough to know that trying to get Iblis back would fuck over the timeline even more than it already has (which also likely affects them too, so it's not worth the risk). Without Iblis there to re-form, he only has so much power, and in terms of changing the timeline, can only make as much change as anyone else can by directly influencing things himself. Essentially, without the possibility of healing and becoming whole once more (my keyboard keeps capitalising Whole send help), he's a lot less dangerous to the timeline and the world, especially since he doesn't have access to that primary motive anymore. Iblis, however, isn't as sentient. He has some intelligence, but not enough to stop him from being the rampaging Flames of Disaster we know from 06. So if you're choosing one to keep in the moving timeline and one to keep frozen, the answer is obvious- keep the half with common-sense logic, emotion, and the capability for a redemption arc in the moving timeline, and keep the near-mindless condensed unchecked power of the sun in the frozen timeline.

Sonic Generations implies (mostly via design, afaik) that the Time Eater is Mephiles' temporal power torn from him by Eggman (unintentionally so) and left to run rampant the same way Iblis was, indicating that both (a) Mephiles in Shadow Generations is purely and entirely the heart and mind of Solaris with just his smoky form and what self-defence powers he has to his name, removed entirely of temporal power, and (b) the Time Eater is essentially what would've happened in 06 if the split had let Mephiles keep the sun-power and what was torn away was the temporal power instead. So it's interesting to see what could've been there, and what happens when Solaris is torn into two a second time (meaning technically it could've been torn into at least three separate entities and the Duke of Soleanna got lucky, actually).

Honestly I don't remember where I was going with that paragraph- I think it was just an extra note. Either way- Iblis is sealed away in the frozen timeline, which is why we've seen nothing about him since 06, because it's the safest way to keep him contained and away from Mephiles.

@writersdrug here it is! Simon might be a bit twinkish, I have a style that uses longer hair, so I struggle to draw his buzz cut style, so I just headcanoned he has longer hair n stuff. Most of it are just doodles based off the chapters, but I hope you enjoy the drawings, I don’t draw with references so that’s why the anatomy is off by a bit. By the way, I hope it’s fine if in the future I’ll post some more art of this au as time goes on, your call.

ok fellas this post is really different from my other stuff so i'm putting it under the cut for people who don't care and also because i'm slightly embarrassed

ok so. is it unusual for a girl to want to have a deep voice and a flat chest and a more square face and also feel slightly jealous of men and want to sound like them and look like them

and also is it unusual to want to be all that, but also simultaneously not be very bothered very much by how you look right now or by being referred to with she/her except for sometimes when you think about it too much. because i usually don't think about it except for sometimes where i suddenly just get really sad about being a girl or i'll always have this faint feeling that i am just unhappy about it

and also is it unusual to try to ignore it and go about your life being unbothered by it even though deep down it does kinda bother you but you can't really. like. say anything to anyone because your family won't react well and neither will your friends because they'll think it's weird and uncomfortable. i feel afraid to ever feel this way because i know the people in my life won't react well to it

so like. genuine question please lmk wtf is goin on because i'm unsure if it's normal and i've felt like this for a long time and it's confusing me and i don't even know what i'm going to do with the information once i know i'm just sort of lost LMAO

Medic x Heavy x Medic's wife - TF2, part 2!

This is a continuation of the first and previous chapter, check it out if you want to! ( https://www.tumblr.com/chintikigirls/784296930550415360/medic-x-heavy-x-medics-wife-tf2?source=share )

Mikhail was left speechless. This woman just... accepted him as part of her family and marriage? She barely even met him yet, let alone live with him! But then again, if someone out there is capable enough of not only marrying, but also holding a marriage with Dr. Ludwig, then that someone must be just as crazy as the German man himself, Misha supposed.

Looking towards their wall, it hung several pictures. One of a younger Ludwig in his graduation, who stood proudly with a big smile. Another was of the Ludwigs' wedding day. It is noticable that Ilsa has changed too ever since that photo. Although she remains the same in charm, the ex-nurse has experienced the effects of menopause and the passage of time. Her fair skin has taken the presence of a drier touch, small grey hairstrands on her short, flowly cut. A weight gain is also noticable, specially around her chest, arms and hips areas, giving definiton to her curves. Either way, Ilsa certainly looks tender, huggable.

"Mhm..." Mikhail sniffed the aroma. "Food smells nice."

"Thank you, Misha! I'm making latkes with lamb! I'm sure in just a few minutes we'll be able to dig in." Ilsa replied.

"Our dear Ilsa certainly knows her ways to a man's heart and his stomach as vell." Ludwig chuckles. "Sit down, please, Liebling. While ve're here, vhy don't you introduce jourself more to Ilsa?"

Misha sat between the married couple, his eyes darting from one to the other.

"Well...Misha was born in a hometown in Russia, but fled to the Dzhugdzhur Mountains of Siberia after escaping the Gulag. I have my mother and three younger sisters. Part of why I came to the USA was to be able to provide for them, understand? And, I also met Doktor in the middle of it all..."

Misha's hands intertwined with Ludwig's.

"Wow, I-- I'm sorry for everything that has happened to you and your family, Misha...May I hug you?"

Before Mikhail could respond, he felt the small woman's arms wrapping around his large frame as Ludwig kissed Misha's cheek, close to his lips. Oh? What's that? It's a small blush coloring the Russian's cheeks.

Ding!

"Oh! It's ready!" Ilsa pulled away, she broke into a smile and rushed to the kitchen, her curvy body bending over in front of the oven to reach out and take the steaming cut of lamb with oven mittens.

"Good thing the table is set." Ludwig chimed. The table was aligned with a certain precision, cutlery set along with the plates and napkins.

Soon enough, the three were sat down, enjoying the delicious meal.

"Ooh...Is good. Ilsa has talent for food." Misha happily took another bite.

"Ja, I couldn't agree more. Although, I have to say, Ilsa has come a long way with her cooking. Back then, she used to burn the latkes rather than frying them!" The Doctor laughed as his wife let out a grumpy murmur.

"Mein Gotten, Ludwig! Not in front of our guest!" The German-american woman slapped his shoulder lightly.

"Ah-ah, Mein Schatz. Mikhail is no guest. He's family, as you said so before." Ludwig bopped her cheek.

"He's right. I'm sorry, Misha. It's just Ludwig thinks he can just say and do whatever he wants sometimes." Ilsa apologized.

"I agree with that. Doktor can be...how do you say? 'Wild card' sometimes. Specially at work."

Misha and Ilsa looked at the man himself.

"Vell? I guess I have no defense, ja? But it still seemed to interest jou two enough."

The German said in a joking tone as he lifted his hands, as if defending himself as he gave a small wink.

Paper sketch of the cover art! I just digitized the lineart and colored it in.

Bonus: Art of Medic/Ludwig with his wife. Idk if it's noticable but this was made was an unfinished doodle in 2022. Back then, I didn't have a name or a proper personality for her(besides being 'the wife) Her design didn't change much, I think.
