i've mentioned this so many times but the fact that snapcube dubs have better character development for sonic characters than the original games is ABSURD to me.
blaze starts out more like a teasing friend, then becomes more and more toxic and self centered, to the point where she sacrificed herself not out of selflessness, but to be treated as a goddess.
sonic goes through a similar arc in riders, with a characterization similar to his depiction in boom at first, then his teasing becomes less like a funny joke as it starts eating at tails's insecurities, he leaves amy to die, and ignores + interrupts knuckles several times. tails yells at him for this, and he's hurt, but it's not until eggman tells him he's ALWAYS been a bad person does he try and confront his issues. sonic has a heartfelt conversation with jet about this, apologizes to everyone, and they make up during a battle. "sonic the hedgehog is a good person now!"
and shadow. shadow is very inconsistent with his morality, fitting with the game's multiple paths. his goal is to become president and overthrow the devil, for better or for worse, and his means to do this are so complicated they confuse the devil himself. he's doing it because he wants some semblance of control back in his life. he barely remembers anything, and he wants to make new memories of what he himself wants to do. he even tells sonic that hes sick of having to change for everyone, or do sin just for the sake of stacking up sin points. sonic is desperately trying to remind him that their friendship is more important than being king of hell, but shadow can't be swayed by just a speech about friendship. he wants to do what HE wants, not what other people want. and throughout the story, you slowly stop seeing him as selfish for this, and begin sympathizing with him. even if you still think he's selfish by the end, he still comes out a hero.
and this is from the same series where sonic has fucked vegetables and eggman pissed on the moon

I've always found this fascinating. There's an early concept art of Blaze wearing a white cape over her outfit. It was never used, but then in several official artworks, Blaze is wearing a purple cape that matches the colour of her tailcoat. Honestly, I'd wish they'd used the white cape. The purple cape blends in too much with her tailcoat.
@caffeine-clouds any thoughts?

Surprise! Our New Life Together Chapter 20 Is Up Early!
I managed to get ahead, so thought I'd drop the new chapter early. This is going to be the last chapter for now as it officially concludes arc 2. I'll be taking a break from this story, so don't expect any new updates for a while. But I shall return with arc 3!

Dc au- the doomed sisters
Their parallels to Sonic and Tails are my fave thing to think about cuz it’s like an inverse situation
The older sibling leaves and the younger sibling wants them to come back
Except one leaves to be the hero and one leaves to be the villain and their siblings respond by becoming the opposite to get them back
But they can’t come back… not right now…
