3 Things to Know While Driving Change Through Microlearning

In the ever-evolving landscape of corporate training and education, microlearning has emerged as a powerful tool for driving organizational change. By delivering concise, focused learning experiences, microlearning helps employees quickly acquire and apply new skills and knowledge. However, to successfully drive change through microlearning, there are three critical factors to consider: understanding the learning needs of your audience, leveraging technology effectively, and fostering a culture of continuous learning. Let’s explore each of these factors in detail.

1. Understand the Learning Needs of Your Audience

One of the most important aspects of driving change through microlearning is to understand the specific learning needs of your audience. Without this understanding, even the most well-designed microlearning modules may fail to achieve the desired impact.

Conduct a Needs Analysis:

Before developing any microlearning content, it’s essential to conduct a thorough needs analysis. This involves identifying the skills and knowledge gaps within your organization. Surveys, interviews, and focus groups can provide valuable insights into what your employees need to learn to drive change effectively.

Segment Your Audience:

Different segments of your workforce may have different learning needs. For instance, new hires may require foundational training, while experienced employees might need more advanced, role-specific content. By segmenting your audience, you can tailor your microlearning modules to meet the diverse needs of your employees.

Set Clear Learning Objectives:

Each microlearning module should have clear, specific learning objectives that align with your overall change management goals. These objectives should be communicated to learners upfront, so they understand the purpose of their training and how it will help them contribute to organizational change.

2. Leverage Technology Effectively

Microlearning relies heavily on technology to deliver content in a way that is accessible, engaging, and effective. To drive change through microlearning, you need to leverage the right technologies that support the delivery and management of your training programs.

Choose the Right Platform:

Selecting the right learning management system (LMS) or microlearning platform is crucial. The platform should support a variety of content formats, such as videos, quizzes, and interactive simulations. It should also provide features like mobile accessibility, progress tracking, and analytics to help you measure the effectiveness of your training programs.

Incorporate Multimedia:

To keep learners engaged, incorporate multimedia elements into your microlearning modules. Videos, infographics, and animations can make complex concepts easier to understand and more memorable. Interactive elements, such as quizzes and simulations, encourage active participation and reinforce learning.

Utilize Data and Analytics:

Data and analytics are powerful tools for driving change through microlearning. By analyzing learner data, you can gain insights into how well your training programs are working and identify areas for improvement. For example, you can track completion rates, quiz scores, and engagement levels to see which modules are most effective and which may need to be revised.

3. Foster a Culture of Continuous Learning

Driving change through microlearning requires more than just delivering training; it requires creating an environment where continuous learning is encouraged and valued. This involves cultivating a culture that supports ongoing development and recognizes the importance of learning in achieving organizational goals.

Encourage Continuous Improvement:

Encourage employees to view learning as a continuous process, rather than a one-time event. This can be achieved by regularly updating and expanding your microlearning content to reflect new developments and best practices. Providing opportunities for employees to revisit and reinforce their learning through refresher modules and follow-up activities can also help.

Provide Support and Resources:

Support your employees’ learning journeys by providing the necessary resources and support. This could include access to additional learning materials, opportunities for practice and application, and guidance from mentors or coaches. Creating a supportive learning environment helps to ensure that employees feel empowered to take charge of their own development.

Recognize and Reward Learning:

Recognizing and rewarding learning achievements can motivate employees to engage with microlearning and strive for continuous improvement. This could involve formal recognition, such as certificates or badges, as well as informal recognition, such as praise from managers or peers. Linking learning achievements to career progression and development opportunities can also provide a powerful incentive for employees to embrace microlearning.

Case Study: Implementing Microlearning for Change

Consider a company in the tech industry that needs to upskill its workforce to keep pace with rapid technological advancements. The company decides to implement a microlearning strategy to drive this change. Here’s how they successfully navigated the three critical factors:

Understanding Learning Needs:

The company began by conducting a comprehensive needs analysis. They surveyed employees to identify gaps in their current knowledge and skills, and held focus groups to gain deeper insights into specific learning needs. Based on this analysis, they segmented their audience into different groups, such as new hires, mid-level employees, and senior staff, and developed tailored microlearning modules for each group.

Leveraging Technology:

The company selected a versatile LMS that supported a range of content formats and provided robust analytics capabilities. They created engaging microlearning modules that included videos, interactive simulations, and quizzes. The platform’s mobile accessibility ensured that employees could access training anytime, anywhere.

Fostering Continuous Learning:

To create a culture of continuous learning, the company regularly updated its microlearning content to keep it relevant and engaging. They provided additional resources and support through an online learning portal, where employees could access supplementary materials and connect with mentors. The company also implemented a recognition program that rewarded employees for completing microlearning modules and achieving learning milestones.

Results:

The company saw significant improvements in employee knowledge and skills, as well as increased engagement and motivation. By understanding their learning needs, leveraging technology effectively, and fostering a culture of continuous learning, they were able to drive meaningful change through microlearning.

Conclusion

Microlearning is a powerful tool for driving organizational change, but its success depends on understanding the learning needs of your audience, leveraging technology effectively, and fostering a culture of continuous learning. By focusing on these three critical factors, you can create a microlearning strategy that not only enhances employee knowledge and skills but also supports your broader change management goals. Embrace the power of microlearning to drive lasting change and achieve your organizational objectives.

How does a Salesforce LMS utilize microsites for training teams?

A Salesforce LMS can use microsites to offer personalized training to different groups of users within the same organization. They can be categorized according to departments, chapters, geographies, and languages. Each of the groups has a microsite or a portal that carries a distinct branding with a logo and content that differentiates it from the other. This enables learners (users who might be employees, partners, or members) to feel cared for and included. MapleLMS brings a unique environment for learners to deliver the best, personalized learning experience. It is a Salesforce LMS with integration capabilities with AMS, virtual event apps, and eCommerce portals for a wholesome experience for learners.

“LIFE MISSION: SAVE MY BROTHERS” 💖 The Red Knight’s Mission (Episode 1: The Buried Memory Page 28-41)

and, finally, the last set for this episode. this was actually harder to get through compared to the rest of the sets, physically and emotionally 😭 drawing leo grieving broke me and i cried like a baby sketching that panel. i wish i could add more panels in but i didn't want to drag out the comic too long and give myself too much work. it was supposed to play out similarly to "E-Turtle Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" where leo's memories pushed back against him to avoid painful memories but i feel like that would've destroyed the vibe and somberness of the softer moments. plus it'll make the episode much MUCH longer. also leo didn't actually lose the colors of his scarf. it was more for symbolic reasons. and if the last panel of page 35 looks familiar, i took inspiration from the movie and imitated the expression mikey had when he tried to open the portal for the third time to save leo. (no, i did not trace it) it may or may not be foreshadowing for later 🤭 and yeah, the comic will be taking a hiatus……. to make more of the comic 😂 dw it's not for mental health or personal life reasons… actually it's partly that because i have an upcoming VISA interview 😭 bUT i'll still be making LM stuff behind the scenes, dw >:3 next episode won't be as drama or action packed as this one but… we will meet raph for the first time 👀 i'm really rEALLY excited to work more on the comic, and that's TWO reallys! i just hope y'all will be patient with me because it is no easy feat working on this. i love it but i'm only one person, after all 😄 thank you so so much for supporting this comic again! comments and shares are very much appreciated! 💖 BEGINNING / PREV / NEXT EPISODE (coming this april) •

replacements for a few LMS mods

If you think you saw this post yesterday, yes you did- then I made a couple edits and realized I should have done it under a readmore in case people reblogged it... So here we go again! These are the possible replacements I found for the littlemssam mods I was using, in case they help anyone else.

Caveats: - Often not a 1:1 replacement. - I only went looking for replacements for mods I was actually using, so this only covers a fraction of her catalog. - Most of these modders still use Curseforge, they're just not exclusive to it.

Additionally, if anyone knows of a replacement for any of the following: Go For A Walk, Improved Meditation Stool, Improved Practical Spells (the improvements to the spells themselves,) No Random Job Offers (I know BosseladyTV has one, but it's CF exclusive,) Purchased Items Delivered By Mail, Release All The Ghosts, or Tea For Children, please drop me an ask! I only request no Curseforge exclusives and no Zer0.

On to the list:

Allow Stoves in University Housing -> Zerbu, No University Housing Restrictions

Auto Employees -> Kuttoe's "X Everywhere" mods, Zerbu's Spawn Refresh

Auto-Light Fireplaces Only When Cold -> Bienchen, fireplaceautonomytweak

Buy Treats via PC -> Bienchen, buypettreat

Calendar Tweaks -> Kuttoe, Less Frequent Prom (caveat: takes time to start working, especially if you're using a longer season setting)

Cookbooks -> ClaudiaSharon, Cook Experimental/Cultural/Jungle Food Without Tasting It First

Immortality Potion Fix -> Kuttoe, Potions Rework (only a half replacement- removes the VFX, but doesn't lock aging like the Scarlet/LMS mod)

Kids Can Walk Dogs -> ChippedSim, Paws & Claws (A Sim's Best Friend module)

More Away Actions -> Bienchen, awayactions (is actually included in the LMS mod)

No Burning Sun in Forgotten Hollow -> TwistedMexi, Daywalkers + Underworlds (caveat: per TMex's comment on the latter, the eternal night is only cosmetic and still requires Daywalkers for vampires to come out at "daytime". Also, Daywalkers affects all worlds. Still interested in a mod closer to LMS's if one exists!)

No Insects Herbalism -> Simularity, Improved Herbalism Potions & Features

No Shoe Sign Animation -> Lotharihoe, Shoe Sign Animation Tweaks (doesn't remove the animation entirely but does stop it from interrupting walking)

No Sick, Dirty, Sad and Hungry Pets -> Bienchen, catanddogsanity

Pregnancy Overhaul ("sims can do more" part) -> Bienchen, pregnantsimscandomore

Pregnancy Overhaul (belly sizes) -> t0nischwartz, No Bump or sonozakisisterssims4, "The belly in pregnancy depends on the number of babies" (the former is simpler but has no equivalent to the "larger belly" option, the latter has a bit more going on but has direct equivalents to LMS's sizes, so take your pick!)

Sleep All Night and Sleep In -> Midnitetech- Stay Asleep, Mokunoid- Better Sleep Autonomy or Lot 51- Sunrise depending on desired depth/customization

Social Activities -> adeepindigo, Youth, Friends and Family Activities

Small GF Reactions Overhaul -> Bienchen, lesscelebreact

Small Laundry Overhaul -> Bienchen's laundry mods cover some (but not all- anyone have something to make it cost money on community lots?) of it, along with Lotharihoe's No Autonomously Set Laundry Down to replace the "auto put away laundry" part.

Spar With For Everyone -> Bienchen, sparwithfornonmilitary

Toddler Ask For Food No Junk -> Bienchen, healthyhighchair (not quite the same thing but it solves the "why do they always give the kid chips" issue at least)

WEE: Working Elevators Everywhere -> Ravasheen, Uplifting Elevators (space and wall height permitting, it's also possible to make no-CC elevators with the RoM debug portals!)

Wellness Treat Fix -> Bienchen, petanxiousbufffix

Also, while I wasn't using either of them myself, Meet&Mingle can replace SimDa Dating App, and Lovestruck adds a "canon" dating app (though given EA's complete lack of attention to QA etc. I wouldn't recommend paying for it.)

edit 6/26/24: added Sunrise, petanxiousbufffix, pregnantsimscandomore

edit 6/27/24: added No Bump, moved into a new post.

edit 6/29/24: added Daywalkers, No University Housing Restrictions (ty @northernnightsky!) and the sonozakisisters bump mod

edit 7/2/24: added Underworlds (ty anon), Paws & Claws, and a link to the tutorial I followed for no-CC elevators

edit 8/22/24: added Spawn Refresh

Personalize the Learning Journey: The Power of LMS Portals

In today's dynamic learning landscape, personalization is key to effective knowledge retention and skill development. LMS portals offer a powerful solution for organizations seeking to cater to diverse learner needs and preferences. Edzlms, a leading Learning Management System (LMS) provider, empowers organizations to leverage the potential of LMS portals for a truly personalized learning experience.

What are LMS Portals?

LMS portals are customized dashboards within your LMS that provide learners with a single point of access to their specific learning materials, progress reports, and training resources. Imagine a virtual learning environment tailored to each individual's role, department, or learning goals. This is the power of LMS portals.

Benefits of LMS Portals:

Enhanced Learner Engagement: Personalized learning experiences with relevant content and courses readily available on the LMS portal lead to increased learner engagement.

Improved Learning Outcomes: When learners feel their learning paths are aligned with their needs, they are more likely to actively participate and retain information.

Streamlined Learning Management: LMS portals empower administrators to organize content and resources efficiently, making it easier for learners to find the information they need.

Increased Learner Autonomy: LMS portals provide learners with a sense of control over their learning journey. They can track their progress, access learning materials on their own schedule, and choose courses relevant to their goals.

How Edzlms Optimizes LMS Portals:

Edzlms understands the importance of personalization and provides robust features to create powerful LMS portals. Here's how Edzlms helps you leverage their potential:

Role-Based Access Control: Restrict access to specific content and courses based on user roles or departments. This ensures learners only see relevant materials on their LMS portals.

Personalized Learning Paths: Create customized learning paths for different learner groups with targeted content and activities.

Single Sign-On (SSO) Integration: Allow learners to access all learning resources through a single login, simplifying the learning experience within the LMS portal.

Branding and Customization: Tailor the look and feel of your LMS portals to match your organization's branding, creating a familiar and comfortable learning environment.

Real-World Application of LMS Portals:

Consider a large manufacturing company with diverse training needs across various departments. Edzlms facilitates the creation of LMS portals for each department. The production team's portal might house safety training videos and operational manuals, while the sales team's portal focuses on product knowledge and customer interaction techniques. Everyone has access to the information they need, leading to a more efficient and effective learning experience.

Conclusion:

LMS portals are a game-changer in personalized learning. Edzlms provides the tools and functionalities to create engaging and effective LMS portals, fostering a learning environment that caters to individual needs and empowers learners to achieve their full potential.

Addon to cult yanderes and monster reader what if, the deity also falls in love with the monster their cult abandoned them for

[I hope this is what you wanted gnxgn]

As monster y/n is being pampered by the cultist, at the camp with bunch of cabins around each other in the same spot, in the deep forest that was your home for awhile, but the allure of cooked food was irresistible, and here you are sitting in the middle of camp, as all the yan cult members are brushing your fur, and braiding it, till there was a bright light, in the sky over the camp,all the members stop, what there doing.

as golden, particles that shine fall gently, to the ground up the steps to the worship and sacrifice area, that use to have stone carved, of the old god forgotten in rock, the members mumble about if its there, old once deity they worship return, that wasn't worth of praise, Of something like you that deserve to be worshiped "stay behind here y/n we will approach our unworthy deity" the leader of cult says walking up the steps

even if you got claws and teeth taller, then most humans, as yan cult members investigate, the golden dust in the worship area,leaving you behind down the steps were the camp fire uselly is, with other yan cult members,surrounding the golden dust it starts moving, emerge rises out of the, dust it

So you know how Dark Sun is teaming up with Moon? What if another dimension’s Moon ends up in “our” dimension and the fam takes him in?

It would basically be the opposite of Dark Sun: Light Moon. The Sun in LM’s world tried to kill him like DS did to HIS Moon, but LM’s Sun only managed to remove the Killcode.

Now, this does not mean that Light Moon isn’t violent. After all, Moon should be allowed to have violent moments just like everyone else. He managed to kill his Sun out of self defense, panicked, and went into the portal and ran away forever.

At first, he’s violent with Sun. Because you know. Trauma. And while he still retains some violent tendencies, he warms up to the fam and Sun. Calls Sun his brother and ACTS LIKE IT.

Now the only issue is what would happen if/when “our” Moon comes back…

KB as Luigi's toxic ex.

Listen.

Me, @istadris and probably many others who have seen their post have headcanoned that King Boo is Luigi's bitter, toxic ex who is pissed off that he was dumped and wants him back. Last night I came up with a literal timeline of how everything went down from LM1 to LM3 and I want to talk about it.

Lm1: KB was just another villain trying to show superiority, didn't even think Luigi would show up to save his bro and didn't have any traps or plans to defend against him, didn't even think he had to, hence why only the boos and poltergeist were actively aggressive towards Luigi, as it was under KB's command since he didn't want him getting Mario back, who was the actual priced possession at the time. Heck, there weren't even any Toads to save from paintings which shows KB's main goal.

Aftermath: KB is defeated and is shocked that he was defeated by Luigi, the second, shadowed brother of the hero of the Mushroom Kingdom with only a damn vacuum and some tiny elemental spirits he found hidden in the mansion. He wants to be mad but he's more curious and intrigued instead. This then leads him to try and learn more about the green man, heck even getting into Mario Kart, Mario Party and other games like this to try and approach him after hearing that Bowser was invited to these events too (He couldn't get into Smash Bros cause then it'd be too many Mario characters).

Start and end of the relationship: Luigi and KB know each other more personally now and they it ends up with them dating. But, KB is still an egotistical king that wants more power and he finds the purple gem stone that he replaced the red one with and it makes him more insane and aggressive. Luigi is scared and has to break up with him, trying to do so as lightly as possible so KB isn't too hurt emotionally and they can still be friends. Take three guesses on how that went based on LM Dark Moon. KB is furious and in denial, not wanting to let go of Luigi, but when he doesn't succeed he's so enraged that he swears to get revenge for this and keep him forever.

LM Dark Moon: KB learns of the new, docile ghosts that stay calm thanks to the power of the floating crystal called the Dark Moon (which I honestly want to look more into) and shatters it to unleash chaos and gain control over them. By this point, he knew how Luigi was the only one who could actually take on ghosts and boos and that he was more closely associated with EGadd so he was certain that he'd be called to do the job. Also because he kidnapped his brother again. The toads were just there and why not trap them to make it more fun? Afterall, the Toads were proper assholes to Luigi in way too many games so he took this chance to punish them for it. I don't think KB created all these mansions, he just found them and used them as his arenas, letting the ghosts figure out the how each one operated and use it to their advantage, with the boos often keeping them in line to the king's goal at hand. Even so, it was obvious that KB was more focused on doing actual harm to Luigi, with the creatures he created thanks to his new gem, to controlling the ghosts and even cursing the broken pieces of the Dark Moon, to going as far as to open a portal and let so many ghosts in that it nearly lead to the dimension collapsing on itself! All of this in a single night! I also want to point out the part in the scene at Secret Mines, where the boos had the ghosts in those red crystals to make them more powerful, taunting them while they themselves looked scared and trying to free themselves before having all that power forced into them and driving them crazy? That probably gave Luigi PTSD since he went through something similar with a worse outcome. And to top it all off, when he had finally all the pieces and thought he could go back to the lab to prepare to get Mario with probably the help of the ghosts, KB sabotages the camera that pixelated Luigi and went him in a pocket dimension that no one would be able to reach them and he couldn't escape from on his own. Honestly, I loved how they didn't have KB move at all besides him floating and staring at Luigi like that the entire time he mocked him, it made him look way scarier, like the calm anger mixed with menace. KB probably tried to make a deal that he'd let Mario go if he came back to him and ruled the land with him but Luigi refused and the fight started, if he couldn't make Luigi come to him willingly then he'd look lovely in a painting above his throne.

LM3: KB. Has. Lost. It. He is royally pissed and more psychotic than ever. He has become more ruthless and desperate to make Luigi pay before he is captured, knowing he couldn't save anyone, especially his bro and the princess. He was truly lucky he found such a naive ghost to willingly and obediently do anything he asked for and made the hotel probably as luxurious as his own castle as a way to show Luigi that this was the luxury he could have had but won't be able to enjoy now that he controlled ever spec of it. He is set on punishing Luigi in the worse way possible, the bosses using terrifying methods to defeat him, all unique and terrifying. Have you seen the T-Rex one? All ghost bosses had some strategy but that boss fight was immediate with no strategy except brute force and desire to kill. And the hotel is filled with deadly traps, spiked walls that slowly close in on you, locked in a room with deadly gas, axes swinging from the ceiling to slice you, the ceiling being threatened to collapse on you in a slow and torturous way, the list can go on but you get the idea. Luigi is greater danger than he'd ever been and at this point, KB is set on having Luigi alive or dead as long as he's his. He is sick to double-death with him slipping away from him when none of this even needed to happen.

So squiggles....we saw our boy. But at what cost?

Ahahaaaa not only that Key m’boi. Not only did we get our BOI at a cost but we also got what is the closest thing to a “Rosegarden crumb” outta RWBY V9 in this episode at a cost.

Miles and Kiersi who co-wrote this episode can both kiss my chocolate-coated ass for this scene!

How dare you?!

I mean, Miles did hint once upon a time that Ruby’s bond with Oscar is still being defined.

The fact that this is the second time that Neo has used Oscar’s form to break Ruby is meaningful.

I find it most curious that Neo knows of Oscar’s connection to Ruby. She must’ve seen their little moment at Schnee Manor back in V7 and put 2+2 together.

Jokes aside, this moment, as dark as it was meant something in the grand scheme of things.

Of all the people that Neo could’ve shown Ruby causing the death of, I find it interesting that was Oscar’s.

She could’ve shown her Weiss or Blake or Yang or even Jaune. Heck she could’ve even shown her Penny.

But the fact that it was Oscar means something.

I mean yeah sure, it makes sense for it to be Oscar since Oz was there before and Oscar is Oz’s successor.

But the fact that Neo knows that Oscar is important enough to Ruby to use his form in such a manner to break her. That’s what got me about that scene.

And what’s more interesting that this isn’t the first time Neo used a hurt Oscar to get to Ruby. Remember she used her tortured and battered form while they were fighting in the Void before ended up in the Ever After.

The point I’m trying to make is that this shows that Ruby values Oscar’s life. It highlights why she’s always been so protective of him in past seasons.

Oscar is another special person that Ruby has come to cherish. Someone who means a lot to her that she doesn’t want to lose.

Ruby doesn’t want to fail Oscar.

Oscar means something to Ruby and I feel like once the group returns to Remnant, the way Ruby looks at Oscar following her experience in the Ever After will be much different than before.

Not saying this will mean they’ll become lovers, making Rosegarden canon or anything like that.

I’m just saying, the dynamic between Ruby and Oscar could potentially change after this volume as a result of what Neo did to Ruby in the Ever After.

And let's not forget, we don't know what's going on in the Remnant right now. We don't know how much time has passed in Remnant while RWBYJ have been stuck in the Ever After.

We don't know how much time has passed between Oscar and the others learning that their allies probably died on the other side of the Portal.

Let me put something into perspective:

In the Ever After, Ruby saw Oscar die by her hands.

What if...back on Remnant, after Winter informs everyone of what happened in the Portal, Oscar blames himself for essentially causing Ruby's "death" since technically he was the one with the knowledge of the Staff and should've known better.

What if...Oscar ends up taking responsibility for all that happened to RWBYJ in the Portal and his feelings for Ruby will change as result of thinking he had lost her forever?

So it's a case where both Ruby and Oscar realize how much they mean to each other by believing for a period that had killed the other? If that makes sense?

Who knows? I could be very much wrong about this hunch. But that’s how I see it.

Into, Across and Beyond! Scripting: Prime Encounter

This scene was co-written with @mcgamejolter. The scene is also based on this animation by DedGrafic.

During Cosmic Discoveries, OMT!Tails was thrown into the Prime Sonic universe by Lost Memory Sonic and knocked out from the impact. A few moments later, Sonic Prime/Modern Sonic showed up, seeing the alternate version of his best bud lying on the floor.

Modern Sonic: Huh? What's up with the blue shoes? Yo, Tails!

As he knelt down to have a closer look, another portal opened behind him, prompting him to leap out of the way as LM!Sonic showed up.

LM!Sonic: Urgh... You could've just stayed out of my business, Prower, and you managed to screw up even THAT.

He held OMT!Tails up by his ankle.

LM!Sonic: You should never have become the hero of your world. You're a mistake, child.

OMT!Tails (in a daze): Uh... Mom, I don't wanna go to school today... I've got a headache...

LM!Sonic: You're an abomination, a danger to others AND to yourself.

On cue, Sonic Prime sped right through him, moving OMT!Tails to a safe position before going back to confront his alternate self.

Sonic Prime: Hey, man. If you're part of Eggman's new army of creepy eyes, you'd better hit the hay if you know what's-!

LM!Sonic promptly bashed him out of the way.

LM!Sonic: SILENCE!

Once Sonic Prime impacted with a tree, his hands were quickly restrained via energy spheres.

LM!Sonic: To think you're the "Prime" version of myself. Disgusting... You once fragmented this reality, creating wars between dimensions and threatening thousands of lives. There's not much difference between you and this two-tailed freak; you're both ticking time bombs that could wreak havoc on reality.

Sonic Prime: Oh, brother. I found someone even grumpier than Shadow. Hey, what's up with you beefing about the whole Shatterverse incident that happened a while ago?!

Shadow Prime arrived on the scene.

Shadow Prime: Well, to be fair, he's right.

Sonic Prime: Hey, wow!

Shadow Prime (to LM!Sonic): However, that still doesn't justify why you've come here. So I suggest you leave now!

LM!Sonic glared at Shadow Prime hatefully, seeing ANY Shadow being his big berserk button.

LM!Sonic: Get out of my way! That sorry excuse of a sidekick is coming with me!

Shadow Prime: So it's the kid you want, huh?

Sonic Prime: Hey, now. I don't want another Nine situation, so I hope you're not thinking about giving Tails to red eyes over there-!

Right then and there, Shadow Prime charged at LM!Sonic as they engaged in combat.

Sonic Prime (genuinely surprised): Huh. I'm... I'm actually surprised.

As the fight went on, OMT!Tails wearily woke up, noticing Sonic Prime restrained.

OMT!Tails: Oh? Hang on! I'll get you down from there.

He disabled the spheres, letting Sonic come back down to terra-firma.

Sonic Prime: Thanks, dude! So... alternate universes... Tell me about it.

OMT!Tails: You know, I remember seeing you a few months back. Weren't you being chased by that robot that wanted the Paradox Prism?

Sonic Prime: Metal X? Yeah, that would be me.

OMT!Tails gasped in awe, his thoughts ultimately confirmed.

OMT!Tails: So you ARE Prime Sonic!

Sonic Prime: The one and only! Fastest thing alive with no-one to serve except the wind that flows free! What more can I ask for than the freedom to go wherever I want! Well... Except, it's clean-up duty again. Someone's gotta fix the mess Baldy McNosehair did.

OMT!Tails: Heh, figures. So, will Shadow be alright trying to fight off that psychopath on his own?

Sonic Prime: Shadow? Oh, please! He's fought a giant lizard and an alien god trying to destroy humanity. What else could some edgy-looking version of myself possibly do?

OMT!Tails: I mean, there's all sorts of variations of you out there, several of which have got this huge Society aiming to keep the wider multiverse safe!

Sonic Prime: So I've heard. I gotta admit, it's really weird seeing hedgehogs that look like me but with different-coloured fur across those multiversal stretches. Speaking of that... is it me, or was that a version of Nine I saw the other day?

OMT!Tails: It sure was!

Sonic Prime: So, where do you plan to go from here? Besides obviously running from that psycho.

OMT!Tails: Well, I've still got some more work to be doing with my own multiversal team once I get moving again.

On cue, LM!Sonic was kicked close to the two.

LM!Sonic: H-How is he so strong...?! This isn't fair! He should've fallen by now!

And fittingly, Shadow Prime kicked him right in the face.

Shadow Prime: Leave now, freak, unless you want me to kick your ass a second time.

Sonic Prime: (to Shadow) Nice work, Shadow! (to OMT!Tails) See? Told ya he could beat him no problem!

OMT!Tails: Heh, sweet!

LM!Sonic got up, frustrated.

LM!Sonic: You weren't even giving it your all! Urgh, Maria would be so ashamed of-.

OMT!Tails: Woah woah woah WOAH! Haven't you even researched the golden rule related to Shadows?

LM!Sonic: Enlighten me, "genius".

OMT!Tails: Do. NOT. Mention. Maria. Out loud. When Shadow is in proximity!

Shadow Prime cracked his knuckles, not at all chuffed with this version of Sonic speaking foul of Maria.

Shadow Prime: So unless you're looking for a death wish, leave our world... and never come back!

LM!Sonic: Fine, then! (to OMT!Tails) But this isn't over, fox! I'll get you yet!

LM!Sonic made his retreat through another portal.

Sonic Prime: Aaaand we'll never see him again.

Shadow Prime: You'd better get back to wherever you came from, Tails. We're not looking to get involved in whatever situation this is.

OMT!Tails: Yeah, that's a good call.

OMT!Tails prepared to leave.

OMT!Tails: Oh, yeah. Before I go, if it at least helps you feel a little better, Shadow, there's always at least one universe where she's alright. Well, see you both around!

OMT!Tails left, Shadow Prime being left to process Tails's words.

Shadow Prime: You know... I prefer him over Nine any day.

Sonic Prime: Oh, come on! Nine wasn't that bad either!

The two began running off.

Shadow Prime: Yeah, but at least this Tails didn't try to kill us.

Sonic Prime: Uuurgh! You're never gonna live that down, are you?

Shadow Prime: Nope.

Sonic Prime: You know what? I shouldn't have asked.
