fortunately, though, you don't have to watch! nobody is making you watch! and nobody's gonna take YOUR dolls from you. nobody can hurt your dolls, either! these dolls are an infinitely renewable resource. you can have your own iterations, that stay happy and healthy, forever! (and moreover, the dolls don't have real feelings, and cannot suffer!)

some types of stories about my favorite characters make me feel bad. so i don't read them! just like i don't watch youtube videos of people smashing toys

Anyone else think that Stolas wanted to add buried treasure to his report because of Blitz's love of pirates? ;)

“All magical girls are clumsy and personality-less”

but since they completely scrapped that backstory from canon, and I'm glad they did, nowadays I just prefer to see it as an interesting way to reframe their dynamic in a really messy, toxic but weirdly sweet way. Eggman knows this kid through his whole life, and it´s obvious that Sonic picked up a few things from the doc (dramatic bows and loud introductions is something I noticed in canon). You never found it weird how many similarities they have despite being polar opposites? Same favorite color, same birthdays, same love for junk food, same stubborness and huge egos? How Sonic had a plane and knew how to fly one, or how he had specialized shoes that could sustain his high velocity friction with the ground before he even met Tails?

maybe they weren't always enemies, maybe when Sonic was just a tad too small he welcomed this strange guy in his life that suddenly appeared on his island because weirdly enough, he made Sonic feel cared for. And while a young Robotnik tried to nurture the trump card that would allow him to seize control over the world, he got a bit more then he bargained for with his irrational attatchment to the chaotic super powered hedgehog he was supposed to use as a tool, a being so pure that loved him unconditionally, no expectations. And what does it matter that the kid betrayed him and the empire the moment he knew he was using his animal friends as fuel for his conquest? It's not like Sonic ever left him alone from then on! Eggman saw as Sonic grew into an admirable adversary, one he respects and even considers as an equal in regards to power and will, and how Eggman played an influential factor in that proccess by being the only constant adult presence in Sonic's life.

and despite Sonic hating the Doc's idea of a perfect world and disagreeing with Eggman at each turn, he'll always be grateful that his arch-nemesis barged into his life and gave him an excuse to leave that island, landing him the opportunity to find himself while exploring the vast world ahead of them

and don't get me wrong they're still cursing at each other and putting themselves in the deadliest of battles to further their own agendas, but in ways where you can see hints of care and yearning for a deeper connection despite them working like crazy to maintain the status quo to keep things lighthearted.

afterall, isn't it tragic that in one hand, the embodiment of freedom would willingly carries the weight of fighting the same megalomaniac over and over in an endless battle in hopes that someday he’ll get some of the affection he truly wants? Never allowing himself to let go of the hope that the ideal of who he thought his father was could be real if Eggman just tried hard enough, especially since Sonic of all people would know that Eggman is capable of loving someone other than himself. While in the other hand we have the embodiment of order and control never allowing himself victory because he couldn't will himself to get rid of the one oddity in his life that gave his brilliance a purpose, that made him strive to become better, sharper and always innovate. He has to defeat Sonic in a grand battle, it's in no way efficient, but he can't imagine his perfect empire's legacy without Sonic in the picture. He's way too important to be treated as a mere obstacle to be rid of and promptly forgotten.

the fact that he created his "perfect version of his son" in the form of Metal Sonic is pretty fucked too, a literal replacement that wants nothing but to kill the original, because despite being the "Better Sonic", the original is always the first in his Master's mind. Must be hard for Sonic too, that Robotnik created a replacement of him that he proudly takes care of and declares as his son... There's actually a pretty good fic on ao3 (Eggfam Troubles by Chilicia_Aselica) that explores Metal and Sonic's dynamic through that lense, I wholy reccommend!

either way i'm sorry for the ramble, I've been obssessed with the idea of Eggman begrudgingly being Sonic's father figure for months now, I've been itching for a moment to infodump for so long and I honestly could keep going on deeper adding my own headcanons if this wasn't already too long and boring

So to the story time. When I was a toddler my parents were worried I might be mute or partially so because I would either not talk at all or just say one word and no complete sentences. This kept up until I was 2 years old and after taking me to specialists one finally realized there was nothing actually wrong with me but my older sibling was talking for me so I just didn't. (Sidenote, my older sibling is not much older than me, a bit over a year apart so it's all toddler v toddler at these ages, just saying this so no one thinks my sibling is like mean or something, they were about as much of a baby as I was )

Fast forward after the "diagnosis" and I'm still 2 not talking and up until this point my older sibling has been getting away with stuff cause I wouldn't talk.

Well one day our mom comes back to me crying and my sibling not saying what happened and our mom out of habit just starts asking me "Oh what happened?" She was not expecting a response but according to her I pointed to my sibling and said in a very clear sentence "They hit me with a broom!!" To which my sibling in the shock of the moment just said "THEY CAN TALK??!!"

(Apparently baby me had impeccable comedic timing on when to snitch on my sibling)

Moving on from personal story back to my obsession with the Sonic series. So I'm a big fan of mute/selectively mute younger Sonic, it's *chefs kiss* for me.

I had a funny scenario in mind where Sonic has been battling Eggman for a while and Eggman is well aware that Sonic does not talk. And Eggman has a new cannon fodder accomplice in what ever new scheme he's got cooking up for the week. And he tells this new meat shield not to bother really talking with Sonic cause he's not gonna say anything back.

Maybe this is sometime after Sonic got Tails and they were fighting Eggman and his new chump of the week. Eggman and Sonic are alone and Eggman starts ranting about how he was going to 100% betray his new sucker of a partner in like the next hour. Cause to Eggman, Sonic is pretty good sound board since he doesn't talk back so why not tell him his petty schemes.

Cue a bit later they're all back together all out brawl style and Tails gets hurt or captured or something just enough to piss off Sonic and immediately Sonic turns to the new Eggman stooge and just goes "Eggman said he's gonna betray you here in like 5 mins."

Eggman is too shocked to deny it, just immediately shouts "SINCE WHEN DO YOU TALK!!!????!!!"

Which not a great defense against the betrayal accusations and Eggman now has a new problem of fighting a, as of 5 seconds ago, new enemy.

Some Deltarune chapter 5 spoilers! ⬇️

But, when Asgore started treating the 7 flowers in a bad way, like, no paying attention and only focusing in the things of the dark fountains (and the knight) everyone hasn't say anything?

I think it's very clear how the way he treated the flowers is an allegory of how he treated his family after the Dess disappearence. Being absent, leaving them behind (also I think that would be a reason of why Toriel divorced him)

It's a little sad how some part of the fandom attacked so quickly Toriel only for continuing her life and making new friends (or partner, we don't know what could happen between Sans and her) and don't recognized that Asgore isn't a perfect parent. He's more absent in Kris life, he also in a start take Kris ans Susie out of the dark world only because he was so focusing in waiting the knight.

Also, just to be clear. I'm not saying that Toriel it's also a perfect mother, she's also a bit absent in Kris life and it's kinda strange how she still didn't recognized that their child is acting strange. But Asgore should pay more attention to them. Focus in his child first and not in try to go back with Toriel.
