I haven't seen the Knuckles series, but based on what I've heard about it, I'm disappointed to say the least. I can tell I'll end up hating it so I won't be watching it. I won't be complaining about it either, even though I could, I'll just say "I don't like it" and end it at that.

In general I've focusing on making more positive choices, and instead of complaining I'd rather do something that could make others happy, so--

I literally thought of doing it maybe an hour ago, so I still need some time to organize my thoughts and write a real outline.

So far, here's what I have in mind:

It's not a rewrite of the Knuckles series. Other than it being a short story that focuses on Knuckles, it has nothing to do with the series.

It'd primarily focus on all three Wachowski kids, so it's less a Knuckles story and more a Team Sonic story. Sonic himself would be less focused on, giving the story more room to focus on Tails and Knuckles.

I'm still figuring out the exact plot, but it'll probably be something slice-of-life. It'd focus on the trio, and how they're trying to adapt to life in the human world, both as literal aliens and as foreigners.

The story takes place purely in Green Hills. The town itself knows about the trio and accepts them...mostly. They can travel freely in Green Hills without having to hide. (There's NO way the town wouldn't know they exist after the end of Sonic 2, anyway.)

It'll probably only be six chapters long, nine at most.

Like I already said, I should write a real outline that goes into more depth, that's just what I've thought of so far. I'll spitball some more ideas in a reblog when I've got a decent handful of them.

Imma need that google drive/mega link to for the knuckles series as soon as I wake up tomorrow STAT cuz it’s not even coming to the UK until a day after and I’ll be DAMNED if I get spoiled on it

#SAME. I don't live in the UK but I don't use P+ and I'm sure as hell not going to because I refuse to fund zionists #And I wouldn't pay a subscription just to watch one show anyway #And to anyone following me -- loose lips sink ships so I won't be reblogging links or even posts that say ''I've got a link DM me'' #But if I hear about anything then I might accidentally let it slip in a DM if I feel like talking about it ;) #Des.txt

#Honestly spring is probably my favorite season (yes I don't have seasonal allergies) #I really just like seeing the flowers everywhere and everything turn green #I don't get the worst seasonal depression but by January I get sick and tired of winter. I hate how everything's gray and looks dead #The aesthetic of winter? Great. Actually living in it? It sucks ass. #Anyway this is a mood #Des.txt

why is the pressure to be “the bigger person” always placed on the person who was wronged?

#EXACTLY. #And you ever notice they always say this shit to marginalized groups? #When [group] gets reasonably upset about being assaulted or harassed they're told this sort of thing #I'm generalizing because this issue affects any group that's treated as being ''other'' #But I'm especially bitter about it because the one I'm part of gets brutalized and murdered #and when we get even MILDLY upset about it we're told to ''toughen up'' and ''be the bigger person'' #(Sorry to rant in your notes OP I'm pissed off about it and have been for a while.) #Des.txt

Congratulations! You are now a Magic-User!!

#I would have picked ''your hair grows a vivid blue color'' but I went ''wait ALL of it?'' #I've got a lot of body hair and I don't think I'd want it to be blue. I guess it'd be harmless but it'd look really weird. #So I went with ''sparks of fire manifest during intense emotion'' instead. But that might backfire on me depending on my mood that day #Des.txt #Polls #(And no one asked but ''you get more wrinkled at a supernatural rate'' just sounds like the psychic kids from Akira)

pls reblog for sample size etc

#I use a screenless tablet on a computer #I guess I'd eventually want to upgrade to a screened tablet but I don't really struggle with using my current one at all #I've also been thinking of upgrading my computer so I'd rather save up money for that instead #I have NO idea what it'd actually be called but I use my PC mouse as a sidehand input device #I stick it in my left hand so that I can zoom in/out and change brushes without putting down the pen at all while I draw with my right hand #(Maybe I'll see if I can get one of those multi-key 'gaming' mouses and set it up so that I can also rotate and flip while drawing) #Des.txt #Polls

"irreversible side effects of HRT" all of life is irreversible. i cannot go back a single second in time

#The fact that it's irreversible is THE appeal for me #Even if you could force me to stop T you can't change the fact it still worked (and it's worked really well) #You can't heighten my voice or narrow my shoulders or soften my hands and face -- you can't change me back and I love that #''But the body is the temple'' and I am my own architect. I am the one who lives in it and I will rebuild it to suit me. #And well. I don't give a shit if that makes someone uncomfortable. It was never their choice to decide how I live my own life. #Des.txt

Reblog to curse your followers and mutuals.

I honestly think life's a LOT easier if you just say "I don't like it" about something. You could spend over ten minutes justifying why or only ten seconds just saying it. Doesn't matter if you do or don't have a reason, if you don't like it then it's not worth the energy to explain why.

You don't owe anyone an explanation, so why stress yourself out over it?

Personally for me, I have some sensory issues that would make me unable to properly enjoy a show or concert, but it's a lot faster and easier to just say "I don't like it".

for ages i thought i didnt like drag because of internalized homophobia but it turned out i just don't like bright lights and loud music and really visually complicated things

spd is homophobic i guess is what im saying

In case you weren’t aware, sting rays are basically puppies.

#I love it when aquatic animals are affectionate or playful #They're so alien looking you'd never expect them to act that way #(NOT because of that old ''fish can't feel'' BS -- because fish usually don't have any reason to want physical contact) #But then you get reminded that stingrays love being petted and go ''oh :o life is beautiful'' #I avoid humanizing wild animals but I love when you can tell they're sentient and intelligent in their own way #(I'm sorry adderall makes me a bit emotional over stuff like this and I got put on a higher dose) #Des.txt #Videos #Fav

So I'm bored and curious -- anyone know how rare the Super Set is? I forget if that's what it was actually called. It was the Jazwares set that had all three Super hedgehogs and the plastic emeralds.

Anyway, I actually have that set. It's sadly not in the packaging, but I was literally 10 when I got it, so I wasn't interested in keeping it sealed back then. I think it was 2012? It was bought at a Toys R Us to give you an idea of how long it's been.

I'm not really interested in how much it's worth since I have no interest in giving it away, I mostly just want to know how rare it physically is. It's been over ten years since it went out of print, so even the more well kept sets might be starting to fall apart.

My set is unsealed but it's in perfect condition, but that's because they've barely been exposed to sunlight, so the plastic hasn't degraded from UV exposure. I also don't pose or bend the figures. Jazwares figures were already infamous for brittle joints, and as old as they are there's a decent chance the plastic has gotten weaker, and I'd rather not find that out the hard way.

Wait, hold on -- if he was in the cave for seven years, does that mean he wasn't in the cave for three years? Because IIRC at some point the first movie established that he had been living alone for ten years

So he didn't even have a cave to live in when he was like five?

(Totally not thinking about potential angst)

Another teaser of the Knuckles series was found today, aired on Nickelodeon. Credit goes to ToonystheToon on Twitter for finding this!
