#his ear still wouldnt be perfectly flat. but it would have a significant portion missing so that if it did fold forward it would be so small

What if Sails doesn't have another ear, and that's why that bandana is so much shorter than the ear we do see? Cuz Amy's hat does just cover her ear, and it's pretty clearly the same size. But Sails doesn't even have like. A bit sticking out that could imply the ear is just floppy. It's just Flat. What if like. He used to be on a really abusive ship, and they notched it as punishment or put something on it to tag him as a part of their crew, and then when he defected and joined Dread, he begged them to cut it off so he wouldnt have the reminder anymore. Could b cool I think.

Definitely NOT thinking up a very long potential fic abt it. Definitely NOT secretly obsessed with pirates and in love with sci-fi mixed with 1800s boat aesthetics. Definitely NOT secretly a Yo-Ho boy who has been itching to make sci-fi mixed pirate media for a while, and definitely NOT jumping up and down at the prospect of getting to write it all about Tails, my number one favorite Sonic character since I first ever started being a Sonic fan.
