How would you describe Silver's personality?

Let's see... There's a few aspects of Silver's personality that I think strongly characterise who he is as a person.

Silver is determined. He has a strong desire to protect the future, to the point where he's made multiple trips to the past to stop disasters from occurring there and ensure the safety of his own time in turn. Related to this, Silver has an optimistic attitude and generally doesn't lose hope easily, as conveyed in multiple bios such as his one from Generations. Notably, he shoots down Infinite's statements about how he'll show the rabble that "there is no hope" immediately, asking "Does anyone but you believe your lies?!". However, this is not infallible: in both Rivals 1 and 2 there's moments wherein Silver loses his hope ("No! I'm too late!" in Rivals 1 when Eggman Nega goes to space to take a picture of the whole planet; "It's too late. I knew there was way for me to change the future…" in Rivals 2 when the portal to the Ifrit's dimension opens despite his efforts). However, it also takes little for him to get this hope back again: the very instance there's the slightest indication things can turn around, he's back on it again. This is seen in both Rivals games and also '06, where Elise pointing out she feels Sonic's presence in the wind makes Silver give her a rousing speech with the idea she can use the Emeralds to bring Sonic back again.

Silver is sassy, rude, and blunt. In Colours DS, he's got a clear opinion on Eggman's Experience the Future ride that is conveyed in quite a sarcastic manner ("They think THAT is what the future is like? Please." and saying Sonic should give it a pass), and he similarly expresses rather abrasive statements about people who are not his allies. Notably, even Sonic remarked once that Silver is getting on his nerves (in Rivals 1). He mocks Sonic in '06 after their first battle ("Hmpf! Is this a joke? How could someone like you cause the destruction of our world?"), and immediately rudely regards Knuckles after getting the information he wants out of him in Rivals 1 ("Got no time to explain it to someone like you… See ya!" followed by "Like I said before, I don't have time to deal with you right now. See ya!"). In Forces, he bluntly tells Knuckles "Who cares what it's called?" about Operation Big Wave, stressing the fact that a good strategy is more important than a good name. Overall, Silver also has a temper: especially in the Rivals games, he quickly goes to throwing hands when someone expresses scepticism about his mission or makes fun of him as a person. It certainly doesn't seem like he is okay with letting people walk over him!

In an interesting contrast to the above point, Silver is also kind and cherishes his friends dearly. In '06, he puts his entire mission to defeat the Iblis Trigger on hold when deciding to help Amy find her person she was looking for first. I am not actually sure why he does so: I think the fact the past is so beautiful and the people are happy there helped inspire him to spread that kindness to the girl who's been kind to him in turn so far? But Silver clearly cares for his friends and allies: in '06, he is distraught by the fact he'll lose Blaze to save the world, he is similarly seen with a hurt expression when Sonic's alleged death is brought up in Forces, and in Rivals 2, he is genuinely grateful to Espio for the help Espio gave him in stopping the Ifrit from destroying the world.

Silver is honest, to the point of being blunt also... and this thus means that he is not always taken seriously. In a Sonic Channel story, he tells a group of Soleannan officials that he is from the future and gives that as reason why he knows calamity will befall a specific place in Soleanna; this is precisely why he is not believed. In Rivals 2, he is very clear about needing the Chao to save the world: Knuckles and Rouge promptly determine that this is something highly unlikely and that his psychic powers must have made Silver "a bit goofy", despite the fact Silver is entirely correct.

Silver is not always correct in his thinking, but it is difficult to change his mind. It also seems that once he gets encouragement that he is perchance doing the right thing, he goes right back to his earlier ideas: seen in '06 with Blaze's statements about what must be done to change the future, where it took an intervention by Shadow and a trip to the past to change Silver's mind about Sonic in full. However, Silver does show the ability to be introspective. After his fallout with Amy in '06, he is sitting quietly by himself, entirely unengaged with his mission to destroy the Iblis Trigger and instead wondering if hurting one person to help many others is "right". In Rivals 2 he is the one who figures that just endlessly fighting is actually against his goal of collecting Chao, and thus he turns that very goal around into a battle with Sonic wherein the victory conditions are to collect the most Chao. And in Colours DS, he is the one taking note of the fact it feels like he and Blaze have fought together before, after Sonic points out they were in perfect sync.

Silver seems to like fighting and has a bit of a Blood Knight mentality. In Generations, he expresses happiness at brawling with Sonic again in a rematch (stating that it should be fun), and in Colours DS he is intrigued to find out what the robots in Sonic's era can do (but unfortunately has to face Orbot and Cubot, making him lament that there was no challenge). Similarly, in the Triumph cutscene of mission 2-3 in Colours DS, he almost begins one-upping Blaze about how he could easily have handled the likes of Orbot and Cubot by himself, to Blaze's displeasure. He thus also seems confident in his own abilities, helped by the fact his powers are tremendously strong and can do amazing feats.

Silver is sharp and takes note of small, almost insignificant details to come to correct conclusions. In Rivals 1, he notices "Eggman" is actually Eggman Nega due to his speech and mannerisms, as well as a small slip of Nega about how there'd be nobody to stand in his way in the past and future. He is also only shown as gullible in '06: in Generations, he originally fights Sonic because he's not sure if the real deal is asking him for the Chaos Emerald (thus not blindly trusting that someone who looks like Sonic actually is Sonic), and in Team Sonic Racing he is right on top of Eggman's plans with the Ultimate Energy Engine. In Rivals 2, he immediately determines at the first appearance of "Eggman" that it is actually Eggman Nega trying to pull the same trick as before, where he is shown to be correct as well.

This got very long, and I am certain I am missing some (or perhaps even many) things. I've written multiple posts about parts of Silver's personality before, but leave it to Tumblr to not return those to me, haha. But I think these are some of the most important aspects of Silver's personality! Lastly, there's also some things that are not explicitly stated but that I think do fit his personality well:

Silver appreciates the small things, things that other people might not notice so easily. His favourite thing is noted to be the blue sky in the Mario & Sonic games which is also shown with him stating that "the sky [of the past] is gorgeous" in '06, he marvels at the desert area of that game (that Amy notably shows more disregard for, asking him "What? You mean this desert?"), and he is multiple times noted to have awareness of the happiness of a whole world: the above quote is followed with "and everyone's happy", and in Colours DS he says "The sky is blue, and everyone's got a smile". A blue sky and the fact the people of the world all have a smile are not extremely noteworthy things, but they're clearly important enough for Silver to mention them both in two games.

Silver doesn't care much about what others think of him. The only time I can recall wherein he reacted crabby to someone poking fun at him is in Rivals 2, where Knuckles calls him crazy for thinking the Chao will be necessary to stop the world from being destroyed (here Silver's response is "I'll show you how crazy I am"). What he is doing furthermore also directly relates to him wanting to save the world, which could explain his annoyance at Knuckles not believing him. The only time wherein Silver has gotten anything akin to flustered in the games is, at the top of my head, '06 wherein Amy gets the jump on him and doesn't let him get a word inbetween her spiel before she drags him off to go find Sonic.

#silver the hedgehog #long post #Silver is a character that is ripe with alleged contradictions to me #he's rude and does what he wants but he's also a sweetheart with a heart of gold who'll drop everything to help you #he's sharp and not easily deceived but also entirely wrapped up in what *he* thinks is right and acting according to that mentality #if there's any characteristics or examples I have missed‚ feel free to let me know!#I know there's been discussions about how insecure he actually is in '06 but that seems to have been added mostly in the English script #and that also doesn't seem to have carried over to any other games‚ like his gullibility #but I could be entirely incorrect here!

Wait, Shadow and the rest of Team Dark worked for G.U.N? That feels really weird given his backstory, as well as Rouge's distaste for the law...

yeah lol, it's a bit unclear because they only work for GUN in some canon. rouge has always been an agent of sorts, starting in SA2 where she worked as an undercover agent for the president. however, the president and GUN are treated as two separate entities in that game, and rouge doesn't seem to have any connection to GUN.

the first time it's mentioned that team dark works alongside GUN is Sonic 06, where rouge and shadow are explicitly stated to be working as GUN agents. rouge is in communication with them pretty consistently throughout the game, and shadow's story begins with him on an official GUN mission to find rouge and the scepter of darkness. omega's role with GUN in 06 is a bit unclear - as far as i can tell, it's never explicitly stated within the game whether omega works for GUN or not? idk. if anyone has any sources stating otherwise lmk

of course, given that 06's timeline is basically completely erased from existence once the game's story ends, it's entirely possible that team dark's involvement with GUN starts and ends within the 06 timeline. future games never bring it up as far as i can remember... which brings us to the archie comics (as it always does).

the archie comics take 06's concept of team dark GUN agents and REALLY runs with it. all three members seem to work for GUN full time, where they operate under commander tower (aka the commander from SHtH 2005) and work alongside hope kintobor (genius teen related to the robotniks. it's complicated. she's also only there pre-reboot).

pre-reboot archie doesn't dive deep into why each member decided to join GUN. shadow starts working for them soon after he regains all of his memories and seems to work alongside them to ensure the general safety of the world, rouge is likely there for a paycheck (and any missions that involve chaos emeralds and various gems), and omega is. complicated. technically archie omega (pre-reboot) is a combination of e-123 omega and e-102 gamma (quite literally. like both of their personalities in one robot) and he was just kinda brought to work at GUN after shadow found him in the middle of a forest. don't worry about it

GUN mostly serves as a vessel for team dark to be sent on missions and adventures throughout the various archie sonic stories, and team dark is able to work alongside them without much conflict. that is, until the reboot.

after the super genesis wave (aka the reboot), team dark's first mission with gun is to destroy the black comet 2 and the black arms forces on it. they're not alone this time - they have a number of other GUN soldiers with them, and here we start to see the cracks between GUN and team dark form. given that they're fighting the black arms and shadow is half black arms, some of the GUN soldiers very clearly Do Not Like Shadow and Do Not Trust Him.

but what really matters here is what commander tower does during this arc - before the mission, he asks rouge and omega to neutralize shadow if he falls under the influence of the black arms.

while the reboot never had enough time to dig much deeper into the gray morality of GUN, it's very clearly a consistent trait of the organization. it's most apparent in the arc i just talked about, but future arcs hint at some shady stuff happening when they can. for example, GUN seems to have snively robotnik (aka eggman's evil nephew) on staff as a scientist, and they very clearly show us (in this panel i think is honestly kinda hilarious) that snively is Up To Some Evil Shenanigans.

with all that in mind, i can finally give my opinions on team dark as GUN agents. i completely agree with the sentiment you expressed in your ask - shadow working for GUN completely conflicts with his past, his traumas, and his characterization within most of the games. despite shadow being a "for the greater good" sort of person, i don't think he would ever trust GUN enough to work alongside them. and i think the same goes for rouge and omega, though to a lesser degree. while i think both of them would find it beneficial to work alongside GUN in some cases, ultimately they're both entirely self-driven and wouldn't see much of a reason to work for GUN full time. and because of this, i generally think it was probably for the best that the modern version of team dark just kinda dropped the GUN agent narrative. it puts less limitations on their characters, and the stories don't have to make every team dark related event about GUN.

and yet... i really like the stuff that post-reboot archie had going on. i love the inside look at GUN, and i love seeing how much pressure and strain they put on team dark. because ultimately, GUN is an antagonistic force that a group of heroes are working for. the military is a consistent obstacle in sonic stories, and to see how they impact the characters they've hurt the most from the inside of their organization is so interesting to me. GUN is doing the same thing that all of team dark's previous foes have tried to do to them - they're using team dark as weapons and turning them against each other. maybe the members of team dark wouldn't want to work for GUN, but GUN would do ANYTHING to keep the three of them around because all three of them are liabilities if they're let loose into the world with no supervision. GUN is keeping their enemies close and using them as weapons. and i fuckin love that

so while i'm ultimately glad that team dark is no longer associated with GUN, i would have loved to see a version of the narrative exploring why they left. they would all know GUN was just using them, but what would have been the final straw? did they resign peacefully? are they all on the run as rogue agents? i dunno! but i wish it could be explored a little, even if it wasn't canon or whatever. wghelp that's all i got for this one good night tristate area

#oh sonic loreposting how i've missed you #sorry for surprise archie sonic loredump that's just kinda how it is #sonic loreposting #fernasks #long post

Thoughts on JJK chapter 237 (spoilers)

(First, read the fan translation from this site)

We get right into the battle with immediate interference from Uraume who comes down on an ice block, but then another person makes another interferes and traps Uraume in a DE. Hakari talks about a promise there and I think that was about ensuring that Kashimo can fight Sukuna unhindered.

Out of that block of ice, Sukuna brings out a cursed weapon but not any cursed weapon: it's the gift Yorozu had made him with her life in exchange. It's in the image of Sukuna's old weapon and it's ability seems to be about generating lightning.

This weapon is one of the failsafes that Sukuna had kept back in his fight against Gojo in anticipation of the heavy hitters from the good side attacking him next. Kashimo isn't really on the good side and I wonder how much Kenjaku and Sukuna had planned for him appearing here.

(Favourite theory on that Kamutoke is that Tsumiki mixed her own soul into the creation of it (like Mai) and with that she'll be able to communicate with Megumi later on as long as Sukuna uses that weapon)

Kashimo has a resistance to Kamutoke's lighting ability due to his cursed energy trait. The theme of being lonely at the top comes back, this time with Kashimo who tries to relate to Sukuna on some level. And for the first time, we get a glimpse at Sukuna's past.

He says he was a scorned/unwanted child and that he doesn't know if he always was the strongest or not. Fascinating past. Was he already born strange with the predisposition to become the strongest (like Gojo) or was he an average child that became the strongest through will power and gear? (I'm hoping for the latter.)

Without much waiting, Kashimo activates his CT, which lets him transform his entire body into all phenomena relating to electricity. Sonic boom and electromagnetic waves among others. At some point this CT will destroy his body completely and he's most likely on a timer right now because of it.

Presumably Kashimo had never activated his CT before. That he knows what it is is probably thanks to family members that died because of it. Honestly, I hope that he survives somehow because Kashimo is quite the funny character if you ask me.

Another failsafe that Sukuna had in store for the others, was his transformation into his original self. This transformation automatically heals all of his wounds (I counted 24 panels, the entire chapter, where Sukuna hadn't been able to heal his eye and left hand before this). The brain damage he received from Gojo is probably healed now as well, meaning that Kashimo will have to face Sukuna's DE.

But will that DE be effective against Kashimo? Right now his body is in flux and can you cut lightning? Even with the evolved form of Dismantle I don't think that Sukuna will have an easy time cutting Kashimo at all. Also, as long as Sukuna's CE reserves didn't get a boom with that transformation, he'll still be extremely low on that front.

But now to the Gojo question. I see this chapter as one that sets up some things:

Kashimo/Sukuna fight

Hakari/Uraume fight

First interference from outside forces

The continuation of the Shinjuku Showdown

Kashimo's CT

Sukuna's original form

B-plot that might play parallel to the Sukuna fight

All of these don't leave much room for anything else but still it's extremely telling that we didn't get a single panel of anyone else mourning or being shocked about Gojo's apparent death. Not even Kenjaku. And not even another panel with Gojo.

There are now multiple strong theories out there for why Gojo will survive and I'm still of the same opinion especially with the setup of this chapter. But we'll still need time to tell.

Further notes on Sukuna and his true form:

What does this mean for Megumi? It's not like Megumi is dead, he's still in the abyss, maybe mourning his hand at killing his teacher or still recovering from Unlimited Void. But for his future?

A long time ago, I made the theory that Megumi can activate his DE through short control of Sukuna's arms and that he can clone himself into Chimera Shadow Garden through his shadows. That scenario just gained some points in coming true at this point.

But there is also my theory that Megumi will turn into a curse and, if we're going with good scenarios, that he or someone else (like Angel's Jacob's Ladder attack) will reverse the transformation and give him his body back.

About the transformation, Kashimo too can probably heal himself one last time before dying 🤔

Poll results: half of you believe that Gojo will survive.

Staff Recruitment

Greetings! This is a post regarding staff recruitment for Concept: “Mobius”, as you probably surmised. Vertekins and I always looking to add to the ranks and make the site as detailed, informative, and cool as it can be. If you’re interested in joining, great! Let’s find you a spot! Incidentally, you may be able to fill multiple roles, but first things first. You need to run before you can Spin Attack, after all.

Concept: “Mobius” is a Sonic the Hedgehog site dedicated to information about the games within the franchise and the worlds, characters, and events within. While there are multiple wikis and whatnot that serve this purpose, we’re trying to do things differently. We want to enrich the world of the Blue Blur and hopefully make it more cohesive, less muddled, and more fun. Obviously, this is too big a job for a few people, hence the slow trickle of updates over the years.

So, we need a team to tackle this endeavor, and we have many branches for all skill sets. You'll also be asked to help out here, as well, but more on that at another time.

Writers

Arguably one of the most important roles. Writers will be contributing the bulk of the site’s content, from articles and reviews to think pieces and news blurbs. You’ll be expected to be able to spell, know your grammar, and write coherently. If the most writing you’ve done is on Twitter, you may find yourself at a loss here, especially since you’ll probably have to be your own editor, unless you ask your teammates for help (which you can, to be clear).

Artists

Another absolutely crucial role. You’ll be responsible for how the site looks: graphics, character art, zone landscapes, etc. It’ll be a big task, but you’ll always be credited for your work, with links going to whatever platform you choose.

Programmers/Modders

Your job will be to modify the games. Why? Two reasons.

We’ll be using various games for clips and showcases, and we need them to be accurate as possible. Many of them are either missing content, have various inaccuracies between one another, or just don’t look/sound/play right for our purposes. We can’t very well show Sonic’s world if it’s lackluster, can we?

We want to show what even the worst of the franchise could look/sound/play like if given the TLC they deserve.

I know this doesn’t sound necessary or worthwhile, but I assure you, it will make sense in the future.

Theorists

You’ll be helping with various theories and doing your best to plug up various plotholes in the Sonic universe. Unlike certain other game theorists, however, you’ll be expected to show restraint when speculating and not go off on tangents or grasping at whatever straws you see.

Cartographers

Your job is a doozy: making a single, DEFINITIVE map of Sonic’s Earth. You see, there have been many in the games, and they’ve been different every time, depending on the game or the area it's based in. And each one has been inconsistent. Heck, people don't even know where Green Hill Zone definitively is, despite its number of uses.

THIS.

WILL.

NOT.

DO.

If anyone is going to take Sonic lore seriously (and few people do), we need one map that can be used for every game. That way, there is more consistency in the narrative and people have a more defined view of the world.

Modelers

Your role will be to make various character renders to be used for the cast in the Character Database. You’ll be working with the artists to make the most “true to life” representations of Sonic and the others as you can. You might also find yourself recreating certain areas or scenes from the games, demonstrating various abilities, or just letting the cast style on each other.

News Reporters

You’ll be reporting on everything Sonic-related that is newsworthy, whether it be a game announcement or a funny pic from Sega. Just try not to post any memes.

That'll do for now, although, we're welcoming anyone with a notable skill set. If you think you have something to contribute to Concept: "Mobius" that is or isn't listed here, let us know. Just be aware that we can't afford to pay anyone for their work.

Thank you very much in advance!

~Ryan

Crossover Ships Tournament Contestants

Alright, after putting it off for a bit (due to real life being busy and also I got lazy), I’ve finally gone through and prepared the list of ships for the tournament! Congrats to the lucky 64, and apologies to anyone else whose ship didn’t make it in. I did appreciate every single entry that followed the rules, though, and all the infodumps made me smile!

Before the list, however, I wanna say that this post and the eventual bracket matchup post are going to double as places to post your propaganda via replies and reblogs (or even asks). Going forward, I will use whatever propaganda people add to the posts/send via asks with permission to add as propaganda on the eventual bracket matches. By adding any sort of replies/tags/etc to any further tournament-related posts, you are consenting to having that propaganda added into the tournament. If you are uncomfortable with this, please state it outright on any posts/asks you might send.

Also the rule about fanart for the ships still remains; if you send/provide fanart, please also provide explicit permission from the original artist or proof that you made it yourself. Otherwise, I will not feel comfortable using it in the tournament.

I like the idea that Sonic finds a literal baby/toddler in the street with no family and brought him to his siblings like "I found us a brother."

Manic is ecstatic, meanwhile Sonia's cautious. in the end they keep him.

Headcanon time:

Because they found him when he was so young it takes Tail's a couple years to realize he's A) Not a Hedgehog and B) Not biologically related to his siblings.

Sonic and Manic call Tails by his Nickname, but Sonia calls him Miles (She and Probably their mom, because Queen Aleena probably instantly adopts him too, are the only ones ALLOWED to call him by his name). While Sonic will just call Tails 'Lil bro' Manic will call him 'Baby Bro'.

Tails mostly calls Sonia 'Sissy' or 'Big Sis' at her insistence.

Sonic's the first to notice Tails is smarter than the average kid, when as a little kid Tails manage to set up their equipment and learned how to hack into Eggmans shit easily.

Manic teaches Tails how to steal. Sonic and Sonia were not impressed.

Sonic: Tails I've never seen that wrench in your set before.

Tails: Manic showed me how to get it.

Sonia; MANIC Manic: I'm teaching Baby bro LIFE SKILLS! You don't get mad when he learns Noble manners.

Tails grows up really loved thanks to his three siblings. He never questions who he biological parents are either, he only wishes he could thank them for letting him meet his family.

Aleena see's her triplets for the first time and hugs them when their reunited. Then she see's this tiny child with them.

Aleena: Whose this? Sonia: ... This is Miles... We kinda of...

Manic: Tails is our baby bro

Aleena: Well why didn't anyone say so! Miles come to your mother!"

Like instant adoptions once she learns that her babies have already adopted him as family. Because of this no one in the re-established Royal Court EVER questions the fact A) Tails is a fox or B) His age doesn't line up with Aleena going on the run.

And if someone ever does question who tails is All four hedgehogs are just like "THat's the youngest, what are YOU talking about"

I just really like the idea that this trio of Hedgehogs adopt this fox, no questions asked, and years later their moms just like "Yup, those are my kids, even the one I don't know"

abt that music ask. 5, 11, 23 and/or 30? :3333

BAHAH THAT IMAGE IS SO CUTE

5:A song that needs to be played LOUD

Okay, for nostalgic reasons, my mum used to BLAST E.T. by Katy Perry in the car SO loud, and now I can't listen to it any quieter or else it feels like a whole different song, so I haven't heard it in a few years. As for something I still listen to... I like playing Bones by the Killers loud I suppose. Oh and definitely Sweet Nothing by Calvin Harris!

11:A song that you never get tired of

The song I've been listening to for the longest without ever once growing tired of it has been Don't You Dare Forget the Sun by Get Scared, it's had some kind of immunity on me for the past several years

23:A song that you think everybody should listen to

Oooo you want to listen to The Crane Wives so baaaaaad

30:A song that reminds you of yourself

So my answer probably isn't gonna be what you're expecting. I tend to prefer making up characters and feelings for songs regardless of its tone, so the only songs I actually relate to are songs that hit a bit too close to home for me to say. So I'll be going a different route:

This song does not remind me of myself as a person or my experiences, etc. But it reminds me of some of my oldest interests. I was delighted when I first heard this song because it reminded me of the exact kind of vibe I've been in love with since I was 7 years old. Dark songs that... feel like Halloween, but not in a silly way? It gave me a sense of nostalgia for a song I'd never heard before. It reminds me of my little self who would obsessively rewatch the haunted castle episode in Sonic X like I was in love even though my mum had found it creepy. (I will warn that the lyrics are dark though if anyone listens)

(no eng sub) watching this reaction and the guy is talking about how this is his favorite key title track yet because he spent all of his 20s working in office jobs before he decided to pursue music instead. he says that he thinks that "good and great" is a bit of an ironic title, that it's like when relatives or friends ask "is that company ok? is the work doable? how ru doing?" u automatically just say "yes i'm great!" even if u don't mean it. he said that it's all about empathy with working people and that anyone having a hard time at their job could relate to it.

and kenzie wrote the lyrics! so of course they're rly complex. the central lyric is rly the one right after the chorus, "i say this a dozen times or more a day like a spell" as in hypnotizing himself thinking he's okay and overcoming his situations and can keep going. work is difficult and overwhelming and burns you out. but you can keep going if you find love and confidence in yourself. and the mv shows this in how he falls into his magical world of his own that's colorful and bright and open and he can even transform his boring miserable every day life with that power of being proud of himself and grateful.

on a musical level, he says that the opening was sonically designed to make u pay attention to key and his voice and what he's saying and be absorbed immediately. he says that kenzie wrote lyrics that are exactly what key is good at expressing and the person who wrote the melodic topline knows key's voice and abilities very well. the melody is written in a way that's tailored perfectly to his voice and sounds familiar to people who have heard shinee or his solo music.

Heya! Responding to the "reblog if you want people to ask you things" post: what's your favourite piece of headcanon (Sonic-related or otherwise) that you'll hold onto no matter what?

Still figuring out the new hellsite after migrating from a couple of the old ones. Glad to see you're still around!

Yodel! And thanks for the peep~

I've...honestly never been asked something like that before, or if I have, it's been a long long while lol. Let's see... favorite Sonic headcanon at this moment in time-

I like the idea that the world is generally at a point of relatively "world peace" that Eggman is literally the greatest threat to it.

Not that the writing has to be that deep, and sure spice can be added where one wants, but the amount of control and power this one guy has is kinda crazy.

Granted, I'm not too knowledgeable with the stories across other media beyond the games and maybe a few cartoon series. So for the sake of things, keeping the scale based around what I'm aware of in-game. He has access to SO MANY resources, or better yet, can recycle and extract even in the most minute details, and likely owns or has owned or controls several companies / areas of land / cities etc. It's not the complete control that he wants, but more than anyone on that planet likely will ever have access to at such a scale.

And yet...the (human) population as a whole is just "ok" with it? Or at least docile enough to not feel affected by him, until things go awry and suddenly they're involved and panic in a fright, if civilians. It's not to say that this world doesn't have conflicts we wouldn't be familiar with, else why would something like G.U.N. exist otherwise? Something that existed long before Eggman, Sonic and likely anyone of the current living and existing cast members, save for the likes of Chip, Chaos, Emerl, etc.

Chances are there's potentially other organizations just like it too, but they all leave him alone because they know they're simply outclassed by this one solo guy. This mad man who can make an entire space fleet and surround the world at his leisure, crack open the world and create amusement parks in his visage multiple times, while still discovering new forms of power and working to force his hand on them. THEN in the next breath just going- "Eyo, Imma televise a family friendly competition, watch/stream, buy my stuff and join the fun." beyond the usual bait to get Sonic and friends to pay attention.

Otherwise, people are just kind of living simple lives, probably rolling their eyes every time Eggman announces something until, "ah crap it got loose, fuck... I'm calling out sick tomorrow". Otherwise, people are just kind of living simple lives, probably rolling their eyes every time Eggman announces something until, "ah crap it got loose, fuck... I'm calling out sick tomorrow". It's a very "The City of Townsville" kinda vibe, but on a world scale. And everything that isn't human just catches all hell, save for the events of: - Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 - Shadow the Hedgehog - Sonic 06 - Sonic Unleashed - Sonic Chronicles

Potentially maybe even Sonic Lost World and Sonic Colors, if we're thinking about all that debris from the destroyed amusement part falling to the planet's surface. --- So uh...yeah- o < o / Thank ya for the question~

#answer #long winded #Sonic #sonic headcanon #Eggman is quite a menace #the way the world kind of treats him is also odd

Operation Crimson

Part 1, Part 2

Masterlist

Summery:

"Sonic, this is Tails–"

"Yeah, I know; what's up, little guy?" Sonic should have instantly known who he had been calling for; if anyone were to call him at such late hours, it could only ever be from his best bud.

Tails didn't even question why Sonic had been awake at this ungodly hour, for Tails had known Sonic's day-to-day schedule by heart by now, "We have a case..."

Sonic exhaled deeply, knowing that regardless of what he says, he had no doubt he would be unable to escape this situation. Pausing his game, he finally rubbed at the corners of his eyes, trying his best to wake himself up a little more than before, knowing that this would be a rather lengthy conversation. "Straight to the point, I see. Not even going to say 'Hello' to your big bro?"

"First of all, it's 5 am Sonic, and secondly... I was just informed of a murder- Espio called. He asked for my opinion, and now I need yours... You need to see this."

'....Shit– If Espio called Tails, and Tails specifically, then this must be an important case....'

Tapping along the controller, Sonic merely closed his eyes, giving himself a moment to simply sit there with himself and his thoughts, for he knew that if Tails was telling the truth about Espio being the one to report this crime scene, then there was no possible way for him to ignore this. Anything Espio related was immediately of his concern, and that, unfortunately, was all under his own doing, regrettably. Taking a deep breath, he soon opened his eyes and gained the courage to respond to his friend, unwillingly agreeing to be there for the investigation. "Alright... Alright, fine, I'll be there in a few minutes."

𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐅𝐔𝐍❕️

╔═══════════════╗

The young man inside the newsstand eyed Mila Lamia, who was approaching him. He had recognized this distinctive gait from afar, as he did every evening: cautious and calm steps that were almost demure, even appealing to him.

That evening, as always, she would pass close enough to show the young man the color of her eyes and make him feel her perfume...

For a moment, he had the impression that she was looking right at him, even if it was an illusion.

A few seconds later, the girl had already passed the journalist, and the young man was left to watch as she inserted the key into the large door of the building where she lived.

The young man could not have known that other eyes were watching Mila. And that this was the last time he saw her alive...

╚═══════════════╝

𓆩⫯𓆪 Their hands stood trembling for a long time as if suspended in the air.

In the mirror, they could see their face damp with water and the reflection of their hands waving at their sides. They don't remember how often they washed their face, for it had become such a repetitive rhythm, even they struggled to see the pain they inflicted upon themselves.

They looked into their fiery eyes; there wasn't much time left, after all. Did they have to feel a different excitement or energy that would wake them? Or should they be feeling a little scared? A fear carefully concealed amid this excitement but resembling a violent fist blow.

There was nothing; however, they didn't feel any of it.

They found themself constantly rechecking their plan. It had become a pattern, a constant repetition within them, like a ritual that had lost its potential meaning. They felt it suppressed their emotions, like a veil obscuring reality.

In the first move, the pawn follows the path destiny had intended; in the next, a recurring cycle, a direction easily predicted by a mere instrument; then, it's final, leading directly to its unavoidable fate. A repeating sequence, which had always become oh so predictable as time went on for this particular individual, every one of their pawns had always followed in the same strides as the last. pawn from E2 to E4, a corresponding response as the counter, a solid E7 to E5. White king from D1 to G5, Black queen from E8 to E7, white king from G5 to E5... rookie mistake... Just like a game of chess.

They stopped washing and rinsed their face with a towel, wandering around the house's walls like a shadow; they looked out the window towards the brilliant night sky that stood before them, admiring as the light shun gracefully through the rusted window frames. Finally, they dropped themself into a chair and slowly relaxed in the dark. They slowly removed the watch from their quivering wrist, placing it carefully on the arm of the chair before them. There was very little time left.

First move, second move, third move... Checkmate!

That's what it was all about, what their conquest had always turned out to be, a combination, a set of moves that leave the opponent no alternative to defense and result in a runaway victory, checkmate!

Checkmate... Checkmate... Checkmate...

That was how it would be that night.

Checkmate!

🍀

Sonic popped his last bit of chilidog into his maw, chewing more than he could swallow. Yet, that hadn't seemed to phase his vigorous devouring of the savory meat, wanting the delicious tastes of each burning sensation within its delectable spices to stay however long he could maintain the discomforting yet the welcoming feeling of the blistering warm heat that resided from within his meal. The aroma satisfied him alone, easing his nerves, but the taste... now that was a whole new adventure. It was the last chilidog in his fridge left that night, a clear reminder that he shall invest in obtaining more the following evening.

As he whipped the remains of grease along his sides, he grasped for his console remote once more, ready to reboot the paused game he had been playing mere moments before his well-needed snack, but before Sonic could give in to the temptations the blue rays from his screen had produced, his communicator began to buzz uncontrollably, warning him whoever had called him during such an ungodly hour must have wanted to speak with him upon something he hoped to be considered utterly important.

He sighed as he tapped his finger onto the little green button, swiping it over to the right, answering whoever had been calling, not even caring enough to glance at the screen to see who exactly it was contacting him. Uncaring for the conversation that was to happen, Sonic immediately started his game as he listened to the caller, only now realizing who it had been given the sudden grumble from the other end, subconsciously throwing his annoyance aside.

"Sonic, this is Tails–"

"Yeah, I know; what's up, little guy?" Sonic should have instantly known who he had been calling for; if anyone were to call him at such late hours, it could only ever be from his best friend.

The nickname didn't amuse Tails in the slightest, but he was used to being called in such ways since the moment they met; a mistake on his part, for he should have corrected him upon meeting, but it was far too late now to fix his problems. Sonic could tell just by the sound of his little buddy exhaling through his nose wearily by Sonic's choice of words; at first, Sonic honestly thought nothing of this call; in the beginning, he merely figured this was just Tails way of possibly annoying him about another set of questions about stuff he doesn't even understand, but upon hearing the many distant and near arrays of sirens from the receiving end, Sonic couldn't help but to frown. Something serious must have happened if Tails was physically at the crime scene.

Taking slow strides out from his workshop, Tails stared at the photo they took together from the times they first met; Sonic was grinning at the camera with his hand around his neck as he took the picture, while Tails was smiling nervously, showing a peace sign. Glaring at Sonic's ridiculous smile plastered across his screen, he scoffed, finding the image rather irritating at that particular moment, especially with how their current conversation had been going. Was it really twelve years since he first met him? Time moves so fast, doesn't it? Like Einstein said, time is merely an illusion... God, he is exhausted.

Tails didn't even question why Sonic had been awake at this ungodly hour, for Tails had known Sonic's day-to-day schedule by heart, "We have a case..."

"First of all, it's 5 am Sonic, and secondly... I was just informed of a murder- Espio called. He asked for my opinion, and now I need yours... You need to see this."

'....Shit– If Espio called Tails, and Tails specifically, then this must be an important case....'

"Good. I'll send you the coordinates. See you there." Listening as the fox had abruptly ended their conversation through the communicator, Sonic merely sat there for a few moments, trying to contain his annoyance with the younger individual for his abrupt rudeness.

Sonic takes a deep breath to suppress the nerves that start to surface. Calm down, Sonic; maybe it was a very stressful day— night for him. Like everyone else, he wants to sleep in his warm bed instead of going on a corpse hunt on these cold ass streets of New York.

Sighing to himself, the hedgehog soon stood to his feet, stretching his limbs as he did so, hoping it would help him feel a little more motivated to take on this obnoxious challenge of solving this unsolved murder for that very evening... 'Or I suppose this early morning.'

Popping his joints, he sighed in relief, "Okay, Sonic... let's just go get this whole ordeal over with already..."

🍀

Mila Lamia fell to the ground with the force of such a sudden blow.

Though she didn't solely pass out, her mind began to function in a dazed and anxious manner. She struggled to blend in and understand what was transpiring all around her. It appeared as though everything was harmoniously vibrating amid the gong sound of a hammer blow.

Though time kept moving past her familiar borders, she could not fully grasp how much time had passed. Her battle to remain in the waking world made it difficult to gather her thoughts. She had a vague urge to let herself sink into the alluring pull of her frazzled mind's darkest recesses, but her fear of the worst kept growing as the menace of the black abyss continued to loom before her. She made every attempt to get rid of the oppressive presence that triggered her survival instinct, yet it was proving to become rather difficult.

A hot, crimson liquid saturated her pounding skull, disturbing her comfort and beloved appearance.

Oh great! While riding her new bike around the garden, she fell, of course. Now, it would be only natural for her mother to become incensed, with her garments coated in dust and splattered with blood—possibly oozing from her elbows and knees. She remembered the fragrance of fresh laundry when her mother pulled the clothing out of the closet, a white frock embroidered with bright small floral designs.

Her mother had come rushing to help her as the girl noticed a shadow moving past her.

But God forbid! It couldn't be her mother, so who was that perplexed shadow before her?

She suddenly realized that it had been approximately six years since her mother's passing.

The truth shocked her as much as the terrible blow she had experienced. She could see them coming at her, with something bright pointing at her.

She wanted to yell and flee.

She was only able to cry,

"Please, please..."

Then came the second blow.

It was entirely different from the first; this time, she was indifferently inconsistent and incoherent. She felt the way the tip of the blade had slid so effortlessly within her chest, right to the very hilt, stretching the same fibers of her being with newfound energy, inevitably tearing through her very flesh; she could feel as every little piece of flesh and muscle would pull in such an infuriatingly unpleasant way.

She hadn't had the time to be surprised at what had happened, for she could hardly feel the pain as her brain began to fight off all of her pain receptors, canceling out any hopes of being able to respond to such an extremity. Soon after, she took another blow, and then another and another... Until her chest had finally torn apart completely.

Her responses were numb, and her brain was uncooperative; the last thing she could remember saying before she took her final few breaths was repeating the words which had no meaning as the deed was finally done.

"Enough... Enough..." The last possible thing she could capture before she died was the heavy scent of her blood as it caked her most prised dress.

🍀

They took a deep breath, listening to their heart beating intensely, trying to find the breath they had frantically searched for. They lowered the blade to their side as they admired their handy work. This assassination took only 30 minutes to eliminate, and there they were, seated beside a lifeless body as though it were an average occurrence.

The plan was working smoothly.

One down...

One to go...

🍀

; NIGHT ELECTRICITY FAILURE ;

About two-thirds of the city was without electricity for more than two hours due to a malfunction in the complex system of the leading electrical redactors within the main powerhouse of the electrical facility at exactly twenty-two past midnight. The eastern and southern districts remained in darkness, while the rest remained intact. In one swift moment, the televisions across the city were reformed to static; the elevators began to malfunction, and people's power within their homes began to falter just as the traffic lights and signs across the city have now started to fizzle out of existence. What a rather odd inconvenience for the poor misfortunate people within the municipality...

You sighed as you watched the same boring information that continued to display itself on repeat across the screen. You had been watching the news for a few hours now, and nothing new had ever portrayed itself to you. Deciding to turn the television off altogether, you simply slumped within your seat as you threw the remote somewhere beside you, uncaring whether you missed the couch or if it merely fell onto the floor.

You were aware of the recurring news... well, to begin with, your friend had technically been the one to inform you of what had been happening all across town, and they were also the only individual who had ever been capable ever of convincing you even to turn on the damn television, to begin with; you weren't much of a fan for the news channels, or broadcasted channels. Besides, you were living in that same city, so of course, these matters were unfortunately crucial to you as well. As imperative as it was, you knew that the same things could happen to you, which unfortunately means you were responsible for whether or not you were to salvage the remaining food stored within your fridge and freezer.

God, you wish you had the time and care to try to do something other than lounge around before your overly exaggerated shift at the nearby coffee shop.

Although, thankfully you were able to convince a coworker to take it that very evening, meaning you finally had one less thing to worry about that same evening, giving you the time to truly enjoy a well-needed break with a friend you hadn't seen in person in such a long time.

Upon noticing your friend emerge from your kitchen with the cups of tea in her hands, you offered her a welcoming smile as she sat beside you, being sure to avoid placing your glass near the board games, in fear that the moisture of the come will somehow spread onto the cardboard itself.

"Which one should we play now?" She asked uncertainly, being sure to take the seat across from you in the hopes of a better gameplay experience; feeling as though the two of you had reverted to your childish ways once again upon noticing the pile upon your wooden table; you had both loved playing board games ever since you were little and now, every night the two of you would hang out, you would make it a point always to play at least three board games before your friend would live. It has become a habit for you both at this point.

You hummed in thought as you gave the wide selection before you a considerable glance. "What about we play Murder Mystery?"

"Ooo... Interesting choice." Kiera leaned on her knees, Giving you that all-knowing smirk as she asked you her eternal question. "Would the queen of board games wish to tell the crowd why, oh why! The sudden change of board game interests?"

You shrugged with a knowing smirk, grabbing for the game you chose as you side-eyed your best friend, "Oh no reason, I've recently been introduced to it and found the concept rather fun. Besides, we haven't played one of these games for such a long time! And we play these board games all the time; never once have we touched this one. Don't you think a little change of atmosphere would be a nice change of pace?"

Placing the new game neither of you had ever played on top of the coffee table, you quickly brushed off the others, carefully pushing them off to the side and onto the carpet. Once comfortably situated in your seat, you grabbed your cup of tea and took a curt sip.

Glancing at your friend in question, you couldn't help but quark a brow at her absence of interest towards your reasonings. Giving your drink one last taste, you carefully placed it onto the crochet coaster you had made for yourself a while ago, being sure to turn your full attention to your friend in question, wanting nothing more than to figure out why Kiera seemed so out of it. "Sooₒₒₒ... What do you say? You in or not?"

It was silent for a moment... Too quiet even, in truth, it had incredibly conflicted you, for within that brief moment, you had felt rather uncomfortable, but upon noticing your friend and how quickly her neutral face soon switched to that of something far too mischievous, you knew instantly of what Kiera had been doing. She was merely trying to get inside your head, and by God, was it working. "Girl, you are in for a ride. Your friend here always solves mysteries."

Subconsciously rolling your eyes at the display before you, you quickly picked up the glass before you once more and drank half of what was in the glass, being sure to exaggerate how hard you had set it back on the counter in the hopes of being intimidating. Giving your friend a confident smirk, you soon gave your friend a rather silly pose as you refuted a comment of your own. "You're not solving anything, Kiera. You serve politics and other unuseful topics."

She scoffed, "Oh, please. I'm a literal reporter for this city's news; I am the one who sees these murder cases first-hand and must inform the city's people what is going on in grime detail. It's a tiring job but a rewarding one in the long run. My work is fascinating; people find interest in what I do! Do you know how hard a job that is? I must be at the crime scene, forced to endure the grueling things displayed. On television, everything is blurred, but I am not given that privilege. I must state the facts; I have to provide accurate information if I want to be the first to report it. Even then, I have to be there when the detectives arrive and speak with police twenty-four-seven. I hate talking with them because they're so disrespectful. They are the people who will push you away and spit such awful words just to get you to leave the crime scene, but that's my job! I always present first. Not anyone else. Everyone's eyes are on me. Whoever presents first gets the money and the viewer's attention, don't forget that, dear. Money is power, and I want all of it."

God, you hated when she got like this; sure, she deserved a friend who would be willing to sit and listen to her rambling, but then again, once the conversation switches to her depriving herself of what Keira truly believes in and of how it makes her feel, it could be rather exhausting besides, you had a rather hard time trying to understand others emotions, and by the way Keira was ranting, you couldn't tell if she was mad, glad or simply just venting random statements. Rolling your eyes at your friend's annoying display, you ignored your inner thoughts as you slumped back onto the couch, already finding this whole evening somewhat of a mistake. "If your self-praising is finally over, can we start playing now? Also... that still doesn't prove you can solve a murder case. You may just be a reporter, but that doesn't change anything, love."

"Let the case begin then...." she chuckled darkly at your remarks; leaning forward in her seat, she placed her elbows against her knees with her chin resting against her wrists as her face contorted into a devious grin. To say you were intimidated was truly an understatement, for never had you seen such a discomforting expression spread across her features.

🍀

"Alright, tell me everything you know about this case, Es'," Dragging the other away from lingering eyes, Sonic gave Espio an uncaring glance as he crossed his arms and leaned heavily against his right side. He has gone through the whole trouble of simply being there, standing in the cold street, where the sound of sirens echoed in an uncomfortable environment where in an apartment a person brutally murdered, in the hour he was supposed to be asleep. Even the thought of it causes Sonic's blood to boil. He wished he had bought a sweater or something before he left the house. So this case better be something good, or else this was all just a waste of his time.

Knowing how irrational this friend of his could be, he merely sighed in annoyance at the sheer display of disrespect Sonic had been perceiving. He was expecting this, unfortunately, but that was beside the point; this was a severely serious case, and Sonic had nothing to do with it. "For the millionth time, Sonic, it isn't about you; you have no business in being here–"

"Yes, I do, Espio! It's my job to save everyone, AND IF SOMEONE IS KILLED WITHIN MY CITY, THEN IT NATURALLY BECOMES MY BUSINESS—"

"Okay! Okay! Just... be quiet." Surprised by the sudden change of tone, Espio gave the surrounding area a nervous glance, wanting nothing more than this interaction alone to be kept quiet, but with Sonic's sudden outburst, he heavily doubted his concerns would be nullified.

Tapping his foot impatiently, he gave Espio an unimpressed look before continuing to ask his repeated question. "Now, explain what you know."

Finding that he had no other sibilance of a choice, Espio merely sighed before leaning closer to Sonic, sure to be quiet enough not to entice people or spike a random passerby's interest, "The victim's name was James Logan; he was in his early twenties. It's a homicide, and his assassin used a some kind of knife to kill the man before hitting James in the back of the head with... something. We couldn't find any clues about the exact manner of this murderer, for whoever had done this erased all their tracks completely, it was almost as if James had committed suicide, but by the way, this was all... displayed, it just... It cant be as simple as that. Whoever had done this must know what they were doing and with such professionalism... I can guarantee you; this wasn't their first time. We will compare and review this case with previous cases and see which of them could give us a possible lead, but—"

"Oh please, I crack eggs with my white glove-covered fists; this should be a piece of cake; I mean- how hard can it be? I bet I could find this son of a bit–"

Trying desperately to hush the other from his sudden outbursts, Espio flailed his arms before him, being sure to grab the other's attention in the hopes of calming the other down, "Are you crazy?! This isn't one of your messed up games, Sonic, and you know it! We can't just wait around and hope for a miracle; we HAVE to find whoever did this soon, or else, this won't be the only misfortunate body we'll find hidden in the depths of some random ally in the city!"

Sonic merely rolled his eyes at Espio's statement, finding it ridiculous. Placing his knuckles against his hips, he simply turned to the side, giving the random people who passed by an observant glance, not truly focusing on who or what walked by. "Tch, cowards. If they had the balls, they would show their faces upfront... Hiding isn't going to do anything for them... No matter what, we will find them and never give up, regardless of what they throw at us, RIGHT, LITTLE BUDDY!!?" He shouted again, leading Espio to grunt in frustration at how absurdly loud Sonic had been that night. What was this guy on anyway?!

Tails slowly turned in their direction, halting with the questioning season he displayed with one of the fellow officers who arrived at the scene, as well as questioning the suspects who were in the area. His ear was crooked at the sudden mention of his obscure nickname, questioning what Sonic was doing and why it had to include him.

"We have a serial killer running rampant in the city, Sonic! This isn't the sort of situation we should be reckless about!!"

"You think I don't give a damn about this, Es? I'm just as worried about this situation as you are! But sometimes.... Even in such ... grime situation, you just... need to fake a smile instead of worrying so much. It's not healthy being so negative, you know..."

"Yeah... if smiling could help us find the killer, then I would have been smiling since the beginning...."

Sighing upon the silence, Espio gave his friend a remorseful smile; he knew Sonic meant well; it just... wasn't displayed or issued at the right time. "I know you mean well, Sonic; excuse my stressed behavior, but I must return to work. I would love to chat with you, but I must return to headquarters and report what I've witnessed to my boss. Don't stay here too long, okay? And be sure to tell Tails that I need all the information he can gather from the suspects, we'll interrogate them later in more detail, but I need his opinion." He pats Sonic's back, giving the other a friendly smirk as he walks away. "Maybe next time we can talk at a more... appropriate time... See you soon."

But before Espio could take another step, something he had forgotten to mention suddenly popped into his mind as he turned to face Sonic again, "Oh, right... Knuckles and Rouge said they're stopping by; you two can handle them for me, yeah? Great." And before Sonic could even state a remark, Espio had rounded the corner without even giving Sonic a chance to respond, leading to the last thing Sonic saw of him was a simple wave being thrown over the shoulder.

Grumbling within the hand that slid across his face, he soon replaced his arms across his chest, mumbling absent words about how ridiculous he must've appeared if Espio was willing to sympathize with him somehow.

Tails soon appears beside him; without looking up from the folder he is holding and examining, Tails immediately questions him out of curiosity, "Rouge's coming? I thought it was Shadow who stated he'd be here... must have been some last-minute call or something. Typical of him, he is pretty busy."

Sonic hummed in response; he wasn't listening as Tails spoke; in fact, Sonic's mind was currently stuck with this strange swirling question that constantly came to mind, "Hey, little guy..."

Unimpressed by his nickname, Tails acknowledged Sonic's voice as he glanced in the other direction, "What is it, Sonic?" His was blank at first, but upon witnessing the all-knowing cocky smirk Sonic had displayed across his features, Tails himself had changed into a somewhat nervous expression, for nothing good ever comes from a face like that. Ahh... he knew that look better than anyone. It always meant there would be trouble. And if Sonic had an idea... Nothing good was bound to happen.

"Let's solve this case ourselves and show that no good sour-faced chameleon that we can do this on our own!"

Tails hissed, "I don't know, Sonic. We already have our hands full with keeping Dr. Robotnik contained and in line... We should leave this case to the professionals–"

" Oh, Come on! That guy will never again see the light of day on that forsaken prison island! Nothing he could do about it. The man can starve for all he wants; even his corpse will never escape that place. Everything he owns is scrapped and trashed anyways; the man has nothing in his name, not even his HQ."

"Yeah... all those beautiful treasures are long gone- without giving me a chance to examine them...."

Sonic quickly wrapped his arm around the other's shoulders, pressing a finger over his chest as Tails looked towards him with a surprised expression, "And with Eggman no longer around to control his pesky minions to order around and cause trouble, all there is to do is to catch criminals stealing money from banks, or buildings catching on fire, etc. and... that's becoming very boring pretty quickly...."

He quickly added, seeing Tails' face change with an unimpressed display. "I can tell that you're also bored just sitting around in your workshop all day. Wouldn't it be a good excuse for you also? Exercise your mind a little; I know you like solving puzzles. You need to move your limbs sometime, stretch them out and junk. Come on! Let's do something different for a change! You know I'm not the best at... sitting still... I can't just... wait around while someone out there is getting hurt... or worse! I don't want to just sit around knowing I could make a difference! I'm tired of sitting around as these events keep happening; Espio and Shadow, in particular, are getting in my way! In... Our- way!"

He turned to the fox before him, gripping at his shoulders with such an intensity that he could hardly refrain from shaking, subconsciously using Tails as his anchor to prevent himself from doing anything reckless, "Please bud... Let me have this... Let us do something for a change, at least... just this once! We need to try and catch this perp, with or without the other's help! And if we can't... I promise I'll stop pestering you about this! And if I- we do solve this mystery, then you gotta promise me this won't be the last time we ever do this sort of crime-finding cases. This is what we were meant to do! We are heroes, Tails!! And besides, do you know any other amazing duos who could possibly solve this case any better than the two of us?!"

Sonic gave his pall a playful wink as he continued on, "Besides, I know you like murder mysteries~ You're a Sherlock fan, after all, am I right?"

Gently pushing his hands that were placed along his shoulders, Tails merely sighed for this entire situation; he should've known Sonic's persistence would get to this extreme. There was no possible way for him to refuse the blue fur ball, not after witnessing that embarrassing display firsthand.

Giving Sonic a playful smirk of his own, he swiftly turned around to face the other with as much enthusiasm as he could possibly muster for the night. "Finnnnne. But you'll be my Watson."

Sonic cheered silently to himself as Tails stood off to the side and merely watched, shaking his head at Sonic's ridiculous display of childish joy as though they were still the same kids from the past; while some of the police officers nearby sent a judgmental glance their way.

[Edited!!!]

This series is a side project. I was inspired by various things, including The Murder Of Sonic The Hedgehog. (But I had this idea even before the game came out)

There will be a lot of mentions of cases like this. And there will be a lot of references for anything practical. Such as memes, etc. And not only for the Sonic franchise.

We'll write the story as realistic as possible.

This also takes place in a different kind of environment, unusual. This is an AU of our own, after all. It has its canon version of things. Everyone is above 18 years old.

We'll add a part where we tell you specific things about what's canon in this story and what's not. Such as; heights/weights, favorite sweets, foods, part of their lives, habits (maybe we can add some lgbtq+ also who knows👀), phobias, scars, clothes, skills, cooking/building/cleaning/shopping/driving, relationship status, etc. Not only for the Sonic cast but also for the reader and some background characters we created for the story's sake! Don't forget this may change or take a long time to publish.

We would be happy if you tell us what you think about the series :) If you guys have any questions, leave them here. We'll answer for you. ♡

Hey, Hey! Editor here, (Honey).

Just wanted to say that I am excited to help be a part of this amazing story, and I can not wait to see how it turns out!

I don't really have much to say given that our Lovely Author has already said basically everything, but I will say, If anyone wants to ask us personally any questions, individually if need be, then feel free to ask! We are more than happy to answer!

Thanks for reading Babes! <3

Sonic was idly tapping his foot as he stood by a glass table with an ominous bottle filled with a strange liquid, labelled "Drink me"

"Should I?..." He asks to himself as he ponders his options, and so far they are not many, that small door in front of him isn't going to open by itself, the other doors are locked and the only answer seems to be the bottle

"One more try wouldn't hurt, right?" He thought to himself before going door by door again, locked door after locked door until one of them creaked, it was unlocked. Finally something, did he missed this door when he was checking them before? Maybe, there are so many that is almost impossible to keep track of which ones he tried and which ones he didn't.

Taking a peek inside the door and it was nothing but darkness, pure straight up darkness, although the inside of the room smelled like sea breeze and it felt warm; Sonic leaned against the door to take a sniff out of it a couple times, if his eyes weren't able to guide him, maybe his nose would, and so he dared to take a step inside... And inmediately fall into an endless pit of void, nothingness and darkness.

The blue hedgehog just snored as he slept peacefully by the shore.

Eventually some water goes up Sonic's nose and wakes him up from his slumber

"Man, that sure was a crazy..." He paused mid sentence as he looked around, he thought he had woken up from his previous 'dream', the one about that crazy hallways he was in, but this wasn't the place he fell asleep at, he was holding a book and he was in a tree by Tails' workshop, but now he had no book, this wasn't a tree and Tails certainly doesn't lives by a beach.

He quickly stands up and tries to collect himself "I.. Uh... What?"

Sonic starts to wander around the small island he is at, starting by walking straight forward, a bunch of trees could be seen in the distance so maybe someone lived nearby?

Eventually his walk became a stroll and then it became a full speed run, but the trees never seemed to come closer, he could tell he was getting farther from the beach, but he kept running on sand, as if the trees were moving away from him at the same speed he was running towards them, he suddenly stopped and decided to run the opposite way, as a way to make sure it wasn't his mind playing tricks on him.

After a couple seconds he found himself by the same patch of beach that he had waken up at, it still had some of his figure imprint on the sand and everything. How was that possible? He was running for at least five minutes, how come he never got far from the beach? He was running in a straigt line, he should be miles away of the beach by now.

Sonic scratched his head, this place sure was weird, maybe he would have better luck exploring the shoreline, which he did.

It wasn't long until he found what seems to be a wrecked ship, but there weren't any other ships around, it doesn't even seems like there was anyone living on this island, so why would a ship come this close to land? Maybe it was drifted ashore from somewhere else?

Sonic decided to get closer to the wreckage to investigate a bit, maybe he would find something useful, or at least a clue to where he is now and how to get back if it wasn't too much to ask.

"Huh? Is that... elevator music?" He wondered as he peeked inside the ship's remains, not only that but he also caught glimpses of different types of poolwear and pool related equipment, like a noodle floater and some swimming goggles "What is all of that doing here? And where is the music coming from" He continued to ponder, and before long his own curiosity got the best of him and he decided to investigate further by getting inside the ship's wooden body.

He took a foot inside, lowered his head so he wouldn't hit it with the top and then put the other foot inside; the insides of the ship were filled with pool related paraphernalia... Towels, swimming caps, goggles, different animal floaters... Was someone using the wreckage as a storage unit? And more importantly, where was that music coming from.

Sonic continued to investigate the ship, looking for the source of the music, after venturing deep into the hull, he found himself in complete darkness again, he tried to turn back to where he came from, but after taking a couple steps he found himself... elsewhere?

What?

"How did the... It was... What?" Sonic turned around himself a couple times as he scratches his head, he leans against a wall so he can try and retrace his steps.

"Okay so... I fell thru that door... Then i was at that beach, I found the ship, I got inside and when i tried to get out I came out thru a door... What?" Sonic said out loud, trying to make sense of the whole trip he just had in less than an hour, he turned his head to the right, where the door he walked out of was still open, just adding more to his confusion.

The blue hedgehog walked around the place for a little bit, all he could see on the windows was a light shade of red and orange, a sunset, which was a different time than when he was at the beach, as things were far darker in there... Did he really spent that much time "Travelling" or was time flowing backwards here?.

He continued to explore the place he found himself in, he could still hear the music he heard inside the ship, expcet now it was crisp and clear, or at least as clear as those cheap speakers hanging from the corners of the room could make it, in front of him was a pool, lit by lights so he could see the bottom; he certainly wasn't a fan of pools or other deep bodies of water but after all he had been thru, he could just take his shoes off and sit by it.

And so he did, he took his shoes off and left them where they wouldn't get wet before sitting by the edge of the pool, looking down at it as he did so, he wasn't sure if the pool really was THAT deep or it was his mind making it seem so... Everything just looks huge when you're 3 feet tall; so he decided to get a grip of the metal ladder that you usually use to get in and out of the pool, he took a deep breath as he dipped his feet inside the water, which was surprisingly warmer than he expected it to be, maybe inside pools weren't as bad as he originally though, as scarily deep as they could be.

He let his entire body relax, even closed his eyes for a bit, taking a small nap.

After waking up he got up from his seat and went to look for a towel but after a couple steps on the floor he realized that his feet weren't wet, he didn't even left a single drop on the ground after getting off the pool, this place sure was strange.

Sonic shrugged, at this point this was the most normal thing he had found so far, he grabbed his shoes and wore them again so he could continue his "adventure", if it could even be called that.

The hedgehog walks thru that open door that has been ominously open this entire time, but instead of going back where he came from, the ship, he walks inside a hotel hallway, filled with sounds of people walking and moving around, sure it was a busy hotel, or at least it sounded like one, because he couldn't see a single soul, he was alone there

"Oh great, another hallway... Funny, really funny" He said as he kept wallking around, except that this time he found a door open to his left, which he promptly entered.

A bar?

"This is interesting..." Sonic thought to himself as he walked around the place, the place still sounded busy, the clicking of glasses, the steps of shoes on the floor, the moving of chairs, the leather stretching as people sits down and stands...

He looks around the room to find the same speakers as in the pool, but they are playing a completely different song than before, he gets closer to one of the corners so he can listen to it a lot better

"Huh... I have heard that song before somewhere... What was it..." He continued to think of the name of the song, Sonic is 99.99% sure he had heard this song before, but he can't point a finger where, but it just sounds so familiar. He takes a seat in the bar as he thinks about it, he doesn't his eyes from the speaker for a second as he does so "Eyes... Eyes something... Ugh..."

Eventually his thinking is interrupted by the sound of a glass being put on his table "Huh?" He reacted as he looks around the room, who brought this to him? There was nobody but him there, he continued to hear steps around, but that was just ambience music right? It wasn't like there was invisible people all walking around him, right... Right?

Sonic looked at the contents of the drink for a solid minute before taking the glass on his hand and shaking it a little, it looks like a normal drink except it is dark brown, it looked like whiskey, although he discarded that option as soon as he smelled it, it didn't smelled like alcohol or anything of the sorts, it smelled sweet, like cake, but also a bit roasted, like turkey.

The hedgehog took a deep breath and closed his eyes before taking the entire contents of the glass in a single chug, he almost spitted it back but managed to swallow the entirety of it, it certainly didn't tasted like it smelled, not like that was a bad thing, but it certainly caught him off guard.

"Toasted almonds? That's and odd flavour fo---" Eventually it clicked inside him, he looked back at the speaker "Goodbye Almond Eyes, that's the song, but I don't remember it sounding like that..." He said.

Why would that song be playing in a place like this? Sure it was a good song but not exactly a popular one, and this version is even less known...

Eventually the sounds of the bar started to die down, the walking became more sparse and the clicking of the glasses did as well, Sonic understood that was his cue to leave the bar, as if the place was giving him a warning of sorts that he shouldn't stay longer than intended on any given location.

He simply stood from his chair, looked at the empty glass once again "Interesting flavour..." He repeated before walking towards the same door he came in, and just like the other times, he found himself in a different place, but this one he had been in before, it was the same hallway that he was originally in. Was this just a trick of this weird place he found himself in? Was that just something he imagined? Did he just fell asleep as he was thinking about how to proceed?

Only one thing was clear

Something inside him was reassuring him that drinking that ominous "Drink me" bottle wouldn't bring him any harm.

And so he did.
