Since your ask things says send fic ideas:
Maybe something where Sonic ends up losing his powers (his speed and whatever the electricity stuff he does is called) somehow and he and his parents have to figure out how to live with that? Maybe while also figuring out how to get his powers back?
I've never seen the idea of how losing his powers would affect Sonic and those around him explored before, so I just think it's interesting to wonder about.
Okay, here we go. Enjoy the angst.
Sonic Loses his Powers
----------------------------
Maniacal laughter filled the room as his senses started coming to reality. His ears were ringing and the first thing that hit his nose was the stench of chemicals and machinery.
He blearily opened his eyes everything was fuzzy and he felt a headache forming. Where was he? What happened?
He drew in a long breath, and his lungs ached, squeezing his eyes shut. He realized he was laying on something cold. He was sitting in an upright position, that much was obvious. He tried to move his arm but it was stuck there. All of his limbs were tied down by something he didn't know. He couldn't open his eyes.
He tried to recall the last thing he had seen. There was an explosion... And then...
Mom and dad...
His brothers.
Where are they?
Somehow he managed to blink open his eyes again and his vision was more clear. And he wished it wasn’t. He was in a room, the brick walls were rusty and old with several cracks and what looked to be burn marks. However, the wall in front of him was glass, and on the other side he could vaguely make out someone standing there, looking like they were typing on a computer. Until that vague figure became more clear and it looked at him with a grin of pure evil.
There was a noise from the corner that crackled like a speaker “Good morning hedgehog,” Robotnik spoke not at all sounding polite.
Sonic scowled back at him through the glass.
“I'm glad you're awake so soon! That means we should go ahead and get started shall we?” His eyes were cold and heartless and they burned a hole into his soul.
His breathing hastened and he tried to move his legs move his arms anything! He needed to get away.
Robotnik smiled through the hatred in his voice. “Don’t fight it. Save your breath, you’ll need it.”
He needed to run he needed to get away but he couldn't he was stuck, the restraints were too tight.
He fought the restraints so much that he could hardly breathe and he was gaping for air. So now he sat still as a statue, paralyzed with fear.
“Where are they?!” he managed to choke out through the fear, his voice cracking on the end.
The man walked closer to the glass as he enjoyed the view of the terrified hedgehog, his face changing to amusement. “Oh who? Those two other rodents and your mommy and daddy?” Eggman said his voice getting higher toward the end. Teasing him.
The teen growled at them. “Where. Are. They?”
Robotnik was smiling with each word that drove knives into the little hedgehog's heart. “They’re dead.”
Sonic’s shrilled scream was enough to wake the dead. “HOW COULD YOU?!” he sobbed out through the tears, he felt electricity disperse through his quills as blue lightning bolts spread across the ground like electric snakes.
The man just watched with amazement and excitement not feeling any empathy whatsoever. Yes. Exactly what Robotnik needed. Keep sparking you stupid little rodent.
He felt like he couldn't breathe. The whole world was crushing in on him and he couldn't do anything but thrash uselessly against the restraints tieing him down.
Somehow through his tears and screaming he was able to pick up the sound of a machine whirring to life.
“Don’t worry.” Eggman smiled. “It will only sting just a bit.”
The hedgehog’s screams became louder and more blood-curdling as four light blue colored beams latched onto him like claws from the corners of the small room. There was pain everywhere, he couldn't breathe, couldn't think, couldn't do anything.
His frame hunched over, baling his hands up into fists, his face in complete agony as he gritted his teeth together. The only sound he could hear above the machinery was hysterical laughter.
It felt like that one time he got tased, but this was a thousand times worse. The evil laughter stopped and then he heard a loud boom that could only be an explosion. The claw-like beams suddenly disappeared only to be replaced by the whirring of sirens. He swayed on his knees before he fell over and everything went black.
...
..
.
“....-onic!”
“-Mother he has awoken!”
He heard hurried footsteps from... somewhere. And then the sound of hushed voices.
Something touched his arm, he wanted to open his eyes but he couldn't. “Baby? Oh my God. Sonic, please wake up.” the voice sounded suspiciously like Maddie but that didn't make sense... They’re gone.
Oh my gosh they're dead. ...-is he dead?
A higher-pitched voice popped up. “I saw him move! He must be regaining consciousness any time now.” the voice was suddenly laced with worry as it trembled. “H-he will right?”
“Do not worry fox.” A boulder and deeper voice. “The hedgehog is a very strong and noble warrior it would take more than that to take him out.”
Okay, he definitely wasn't dead.
Somehow he was able to blink open his eyes squinting them against the light. And there was no mistaking his parents and his brothers standing there.
Maddie was practically right up against his face, she had tears welling in her eyes.
He saw he was laying on the couch, covered in two blankets and a pillow underneath his head.
But it didn't make sense. His family was gone right?
He reached out weakly with one arm to touch her, to really see if she was there. “M-mom,” he said but it came out more as a wheeze followed by a coughing fit.
She shakily grabbed his hand, ushering him to try and sit up because he was coughing so much. “Sweetie, you're okay, can you sit up for me?” Maddie tried to sound calm but he could hear the tension and worry in her voice.
She guided his back with her hand until he was finally sitting upright. He saw Tom out of the corner of his eyes holding a glass of water. “Here bud, drink some water okay.” his voice shared the same emotion as Maddie’s.
The glass was held up to his lips and he drank from it, not realizing how thirsty he had been.
He wanted to complain or come up with some sarcastic joke that he wasn't a baby, and that he could hold the cup himself. But he couldn't do anything besides let out a whine before clamping his jaw back shut.
His dad was instantly stroking his face with his thumb while his mom grabbed his wrist. He watched her eyes widen with fear or worry, he couldn't really tell. “Your pulse is so much slower.”
“S’cuase ‘m tired.” he said sluggishly, his ears drooping and he he lowered his head.
“No, no this is different.” There was a lot of things different about him and it was shown as clear as day. One, his fur looked paler, it has lost that bright blue tint and was more of a very light blue. Almost white. And two, his eyes once full of energy and life seemed solemn and had lost their brightness and energy.
There was a clicking sound as they all turned to see Tails holding a device in his hands as he fiddled with it. He moved past his worried parents holding it up to hedgehog for at least ten seconds, the concern growing in his face the longer time ticked on. He swallowed then spoke “When I would face this at Sonic before it would always beep. I built this to find him a long time ago and used it to track his chaos energy, but now it's showing that there's... Nothing.” The fox twidled with his namesakes looking uneasy.
“What does that mean?” Tom asked fear lacing his voice.
“It means that there is no chaos energy in his body anymore, that energy is what allowed him to run that fast and generate electricity.” He didn't like what he had to say next, ”Robotnik must’ve taken it somehow. I'm honestly surprised that he made it out alive.”
Sonic’s shocked terrified cry cut the family’s hearts clean in half. All four of them rushed over to give the hedgehog a hug.
Even Knuckles, the bravest and most stubborn of the family felt a few tears well up in his eyes seeing his brother like this. “Do not fear brother. We will avenge you and give the robot man what he deserves.”
Not even their hugs or comforting words could ease the hedgehog's cries.
----------------------------
(I'm not sure if I'll ever finish this or not but for now your stuck with the angst.)

Ask and you shall receive @likesaly
Tobari
(ripping this one from the tags of my other hc post since I'm not sure if anyone reads those)
-That said she actually was practicing coding before she ran off, although the hacking was a more recent development.
-Growing up she had a tendency to jump between hobbies before getting bored and moving to the next one. Her family was rich enough to pay for classes and tutors so it was feasible, even if they found it annoying. Learned some of her trades while freelancing but she already had a pretty sizeable skillset.
-Between her and the other hackers, she empathizes the most with Mikado, having been deemed unreadable and difficult to understand herself. Which isn't to say she necessarily likes or goes along with him, but she goes easy on him.
-Perpetually winking because she's blind in her right eye.
-Familiar with Momori's work and admires her as a designer(<-mentioned this under the relationship chart post but dropping it here for posterity's sake)
-Has gotten into an argument with Kotora over whether tea was better than coffee(although neither of them dislikes the other, they do have, preferences) and it was the singular time Kirai and Nomiya were actually scared of either of them. Mikado insists milkshakes are superior to both and hell is unleashed on him.
-Does typically get along with Kotora though, finds more common ground with him than Kirai or Nomiya on account of both of them being the Mature Reasonable Adults of the group(even if she thinks he's a pushover and he thinks she's a little too easygoing about the crime stuff)
-Worked at the drugstore with Shitara at one point. Both big gossipers. While Tobari may not have been as good at seeing through the twins' bullshit as she was her resolve was unwavering, the prank that ends up getting to her(and even then she only gets frustrated, but it's enough to scare the twins) ends up being something completely trivial.
-Takes up work at Flower Bee after her stint as a hacker is over(tea buddies with Chino and omitted a Lot of details about her line of work). That goes about as well as you'd expect, with Haruya being one of the hackers' targets (Haruya is incredibly suspicious around her but they warm up to each other, sort of. Tobari helps Haruya learn to stand up for himself at least)
Shinobu
My Nanashi-Shinobu hc is 10 other hcs in a trenchcoat so it's a bit hard to get into that but a couple of somewhat unrelated ones are that
-He reads a lot, but is partial to mystery novels. Has a knack for trying to replicate cases from them.
-Shitsuna actually was influenced by Shinobu into saying she wished Merue had died(re. at one point she mentions the garden being her favorite area in the hotel. I'm thinking Shinobu finds out that their relationship had gotten a bit rocky after the accident and used that to his advantage).
-The fatcats are chillgoing enough but Shinobu is bad with pets by default. They just don't like him. Either avoids them entirely or puts them under some weird kind of pet trance.
-Started working at the hotel soon after Misane and Nanase placed their reservation there. Don't ask how he got the info.
-The Shinobu Kasuga alias was based around "Izuchi Nasuga" (in a similar sense as the Mikado-Misane deal) hence him being the only side character who makes a reappearance despite not having any plot relevance. (this one is related I just wanted to mention it)
Misane
-Plushie collecter! Partial to cats ofcourse, big fan of whatever the 1bit equivalent of Hello Kitty is(maybe it is just hello kitty. Maybe Hello Kitty is timeless). Kind of embarrassed about it so Toukai and Nanashi are the only ones who know about it but that won't stop her from staring one of them down into buying her one whenever they come across a novelty plushie rack.
-Mother died when she was fairly young, so she only has spotty memories of her. For how professional and pragmatic Toukai may appear he did spoil her a bit growing up. He's not perfect but he's trying.
-While it wasn't the last or even necessarily the one that convinced the higher ups to take her on as an apprentice detective, her mother's death was one of her first big cases and the one that pushed her to trying to become an actual detective. It was essentially a cold case she dug up and solved behind Toukai's back, and is to some extent the root of her strong sense of justice.
-Other than that she was more isolated to local cases, finding missing pets and lost jewelry and the whatnot(with maybe some more serious stuff sprinkled in. Kid sticking her nose where it doesn't belong with an alarming success rate type beat). Looked up to her dad a lot and was really perceptive for how clumsy she was.
-It still took a lot of persistence to get him to let her though, since she was so young. Was 13 when she became an apprentice. While he may not be entirely aware of how it affected her(growing up too fast and all) he doesn't doubt her skill.
-Most of her work as an apprentice is supposed to just involve following other detectives around and helping them out/observing them, even if she does have a tendency to take charge when she comes across a case on her own.
-The pressure of trying to live up to the position only amplified how nervy she was and caused her to fuck up a lot(enter her speech about Nanase being there for her).
-Also a big reader! Always has been but she also. Is partial to mystery, although after she starts pretty much living that life she finds them kind of predictable anymore and sees herself drawn to more escapist stories(fantasy and the like).
-Tendency to climb up into trees to clear her mind when she gets frustrated. Probably has gotten stuck a couple of times but now just skitters up and down like it's nothing. Falls asleep up there sometimes.
-Toukai was worried about her falling out but despite her assertions that it was Fine he resolved to build a treehouse for her. Which basically ended up going unfinished for the longest time because he can't build for shit. Nanashi does eventually help finish it(can't really build either but probably knows someone who does. And hey, two heads is better than one) but alas, while Misane appreciates the sentiment she just continues falling sleep on the adjacent branches. Uses the house more to store snacks than anything.
-Carries cat toys everywhere in case she meets a cat. Always ready always prepared. (Tends to find herself fidgeting with them herself but shush. they're for the cats)
-Has 2 cats herself! I haven't decided their names yet but they're there.
-Reconnects with Natsukage and Miumi after the events of XXX.

H-el-ical// かわいそうだよ English Lyrics
Album “解放区/Kaihōku”
Release date: June 29, 2022
Vocals: Hikaru//
Lyrics: Masami Kakinuma
Composition: Takaaki Kimura
Japanese lyrics: Taken from mojim
English lyrics: ©Putschki1969
かわいそうだよ Kawaisou Da Yo (So Pathetic)
あの日のように髪を抚でて
ねぇちょっと待って 気に留めてよ
あの日払った手を掴んで
どうしたら あなたが帰ってくるの
The way you stroked my hair that day
Hey, just wait a minute! Pay attention to me!
Grabbing the hand that I knocked aside that day
What can I do to have you come back to me?
ただ生きてるんじゃないの
ずっと思い返して待ってるLong time
ねえ何処に行ったの
I am just letting life pass by
I’ve been waiting for you forever, for such a long time
Where did you go anyway?
I love youただ逢いたくて
一番じゃないなら死にたくなるの
だけど
I love you今はもう
一番じゃなくてもいいの いいから
あんなに'好き''爱してる'って言ったのに
こんな私 かわいそうだよ
I love you, I just wanna be with you
If I am not your first choice, it might kill me
However
I love you, even still
Even if I am not your first choice, it’s fine, I don’t mind
Having expressed my love in such a manner over and over again
I am truly so pathetic
弾む雨に过去が香る
ねぇきっとずっと无理をしてる
いつも着てた黒いシャツを
抱いては あなたを想ったりした
ただ淋しいんじゃないの
もっと深い気持ちになってるAll night
なぜ分からないの?
The scent of our past in the heavy rain
I am taking this too far, right?
The black shirt you used to wear
I held it close and wallowed in memories of you
But it just makes me miss you more, won’t it?
My feelings only get stronger, all night
Why won’t you understand?
I hate youでも逢いたくて
泣くだけじゃ足りない 消えたくなるの
いまは
I hate you言わせてよ
戻らない伤さえあなたのカタチ
I hate you and yet I wanna be with you
Crying is simply not enough anymore, I just want to die
Right in this moment
I hate you, please let me to tell you this!
The shape of you is like an irreversible injury
I love you止まらない
同じだけあなたを苦しめたいよ
だから
I hate youこれからも
一番にあなたを忘れないから
こんなに'好き''爱してる'って言ってても
私ひとり かわいそうだよ
I love you and won’t ever stop
I want you to hurt as much as I do
For that reason
I hate you and will do so forever more
I won’t forget you as my first choice
No matter how many times I express my love to you,
I am still alone and truly so pathetic

跟着光 - Follow the Light
跟着光 - 灿烂烂, 熙月月
Follow the Light - Can Lanlan, Xi Yueyue
Original Song Here
Composition: Xi Yueyue
Lyrics: Qi Chengyue
Vocals: Can Lanlan
Mixing: Mo Yujing
Original Doujin Music for Sa Ye
我在虚空之中 不断往下降
直到睁开双眼 落入你臂膀
你是倏尔 叩开人间空荡
第一声轰然巨响
你是我 远胜生命的重量
I was falling endlessly in a void,
Until I finally opened my eyes, landing in your arms.
You were a sudden force, knocking away the emptiness in this world
The first voice, loudly resounding.
You were the weight of a far better life.
如果世界冰冷 爱意却滚���
无声汹涌在我 炙热的胸膛
你是被我 紧紧握在手掌
第一束乍破天光
想和你 奔向无垠的洪荒
Even if the rest of the world was icy cold, love still blazed, scalding hot,
Soundlessly rising and burning within my chest.
You were the first ray of light from the skies that I clutched tightly within my hands,
With you beside me, I wanted to leap forth into the great unknowns.
哪怕头破血流 失措彷徨
哪怕只是 跌跌撞撞
哪怕隔了山高水长
也要去你身旁
Even if we're bruised and bleeding, with little left but uncertainty.
Even if all it ever amounted to was just stumbling about.
Even if we're separated by mountains and seas,
I'd cross them all to be by your side
愿我们更勇敢 光芒万丈
肆无忌惮 撒野生长
岁月曾赐予伤痕
也带来希望 跟着光
Praying for both of us to become braver, with endless lights to guide our way.
To live unrestrained and grow up running wild and free.
The flow of time that has given us so many scars,
Has also brought us hope, following the light.
你说一生总要 撞一回南墙
看惯黑夜的眼 会更加明亮
你是藏在 一身锋芒之下
温柔却最有力量
你是我 刻进生命的信仰
You said that everyone has to be stubborn at least once, until they finally hit a dead end.
To the eye that has already grown used to the dark of the night, the light shines even brighter.
You are that which is hidden beneath the edge of a spear,
Warm, yet incredibly strong.
You are the conviction that I've engraved onto my life.
没有人能永远 停在旧时光
但永远有少年 像你我一样
永远年轻 永远热泪盈眶
永远怀孤勇一腔
想和你 去往更远的远方
No one can stay still forever in the flow of time.
But there will forever be kids, just like you and me.
Forever young, eyes bright and brimming with excitement
Forever full of loneliness and courage.
I want to go far into the distance together with you.
哪怕头破血流 失措彷徨
哪怕只是 跌跌撞撞
哪怕隔了山高水长
也要去你身旁
Even if we're bruised and bleeding, with little left but uncertainty.
Even if all it ever amounted to was just stumbling about.
Even if we're separated by mountains and seas,
I'd cross them all to be by your side
愿我们更勇敢 光芒万丈
肆无忌惮 撒野生长
岁月会记得所有
满怀着希望 跟着光
Praying for both of us to become braver, with endless lights to guide our way.
To live unrestrained and grow up running wild and free.
The flow of time remembers it all,
Full of hope, following the light.
终会重逢前路漫长
还能道声 别来无恙
那个约定 你记得吗
要像对方一样
We'll always meet again, no matter how long and slow the road ahead may be.
With every bid for 'safe journey', and each 'welcome back'
Do you still remember that promise we made?
To be just as brave as one another.
愿你我能成为 彼此的光
交汇之间 相互照亮
名为青春的书页
我将你写在 第一章
Praying for us to become each other's light,
Walking together, and lighting the path for one another
On this page of life we call youth,
I've written you into the very first line.
