BLUE WIND

SONIC THE HEDGEHOG | sonic the hedgehog

[off key singing] HE’S THE FASTEST THING ALIIIVE

anthropomorphic blue hedgehog who bullies old evil scientist by ruining his plans all the time ( to be fair said scientist is evil so )

best friends / lil bro is a two tailed fox who’s always a genius despite him being like 8

other best friend / rival is an echidna who just wants to fucking fight him

smart mouthy kinda guy who’s making jokes or being sarcastic

he’s a good guy though, always encouraging people and trying his hardest to make them feel better

good role model tbh

probably has a lot of baggage from being a hero and feelings but hides them all with cheap 90′s cheese and jokes

he does love being a hero tho bc he gets to help people and have a fun adventure all at the same time

can get ticked off easily if buttons are pushed a lil too much

radical and stuck in the 90′s probably

     “Merry Chrysler!”

    sonic i  think  that  might  be a  platypus

            TAILS  SNICKERED  ,  TEETH  FLASHING  white  as  he  grinned  widely.  ❝  Is  that  your  weird  way  of  saying  you  missed  me  already?  ❞  he  teased.  It  was  to  be  expected  ,  sure  ,  but  they’d  not  really  been  separated  all  THAT  long.  Sure  ,  he’d  been  well  on  his  way  to  packing  up  and  setting  out  PROPER  —  and  YEAH  okay ,  maybe  he’d  been  really  adamant  he  could  do  it  all  on  his  own  ,  but  still.

             ❝  I’ll  be  honest  ,  I’m  glad  you’re  here  ,  all  things  considered,  ❞  he  admitted.  ❝  I’m  not  entirely  sure  what  happened  yet  ,  but  I  can  already  tell  you  that  this  whole  place  seems  to  be  one  big  logistical  anomaly.  Did  you  get  here  the  same  way  I  did?  The  weird  …  Eclipse  thingy?  By  the  hole? ❞  

     “Weird way! I pour my heart out to you ‘n this is what I get? Man,      when did you get all smarmy on me?”

An arm around his little brother’s neck as he gives him a classic Sonic-noogie before releasing the two-tailed fox from his imprisonment and torture. Of course, Sonic will have to explain he’s been here for months now, but that can wait another few seconds.

     “Yeah, don’t need to tell me twice. Got the whole welcome party      from the Eclipse and everything. I’ve been here for a few months      and--” 

     The sense of relief that always followed the sight of the blue blur’s timely appearances would be cut short. His words brought Sally to an abrupt pause; the gears in her head that had been turning now with the idea of a game plan moving forward to a halt.

“… Huh?”

     Having known Sonic all her life, the chipmunk was practically conditioned to react to a quip or jest with lighting-fast reflexes. But the look on his face, and the casual response that followed it, were enough to derail her train of thought completely off. It threw her off so much that she almost didn’t quite process the actual words to what he was saying. She’d heard them, and knew what he said, but… just what was he saying?

And the way he looked and spoke to her— sure there was kindness there, but they and his gaze carried not a shred of familiarity towards her. It was so obvious it hurt.

Sally bristles slightly, the rationality she’d been clutching giving way to emotion.

“I’m sorry… what?” Her expression would contort— confusion eradicating the smile Sally carried just moments ago as a more hurt look settled in it’s place.

“What’s the matter with you? Of course I mean Tails and Amy— and… Knuckles. But specifically I meant the other Freedom Fighters. And who’s Whisper…?” Something about a rookie, too…? Cream? No, if that’s who he meant he’d have called her by name. And what was that mention of a resistance? Sure that’s what the Freedom Fighters were, but…

“You’re not making sense. Seriously, this style of humor isn’t you, Sonic. I mean, it’s like you really… don’t…” She’s staring now, intently. “… Don’t you recognize me?”

Ah, he made her angry. Somehow, there’s something almost nostalgic about it. Maybe because it reminds him of the rare times Amy got made at him ( though, they were less rare now as the years went by - she was growing out of her more obsessive crush for him after all! ). Maybe it’s something else.

His ear twitched at the sound of her anger, a frown on his face. He almost wants to flinch at the hurt look she has on her face, the way her voice seems to go a little faster as she tries to figure out why Sonic can’t seem to remember her. Of course he can’t help but feel a little guilty, even if it’s not his fault as to why he can’t remember her.

     “You don’t know Whisper? And Freedom Fighters? Other      Freedom Fighters? I mean, that’s what some of the resistance      members call themselves, but I...”

     “I don’t recognize you at all.”

His voice trails off, a quiet whisper as he declares what she probably doesn’t want to hear, as he tries to figure out what’s going on as well. His mind racks through some possibilities at light speed, or rather... he thinks of what Tails might come to the conclusion to. Sonic is often a calm brawn in their duo, but if there was anyone who could easily come to a conclusion about any weird ‘hey, i actually know you but you don’t know me’ nonsense, it’d be his little brother.

... Actually, what ends up happening is his past self flashes through his mind. Quiet, short and round, but it’s not the person who really crosses his mind. No, instead it’s the circumstances that brought the little guy and his equally littlest brother to Sonic and Tails’ own timeline.

       HM.  IT SEEMED  LIKE  he’d  been  transported  to  a  completely  different  dimension. Which  ,  granted  ,  wasn’t  entirely  out  of  the  realm (hah)  of  possibility. If  anything  ,  Tails  couldn’t  even  be  SURPRISED.  OF  COURSE  another  dimension  would  manage  to  suck  him  up  and  deposit  him  somewhere  WEIRD. That  part  was  typical.

          What  was  a  LOT  less  ideal  was  the  lack  of  his  trusted  MILES  ELECTRIC. That  made  a  radar  scan  of  this  dimension  WAY  more  difficult. (And  by  that  he  meant  nonexistent.)  But  there  was  nothing  a  little  bit  of  flight  couldn’t  handle.  From  up  above  the  streets  and  buildings  ,  altogether  ,  it  ALMOST  looked  like  Station  Square… .

            ❝  Hm…?  Oh! ❞

          A  familiar  sound  ,  and  the  rush  of  wind  down  below.  It  was  EASY  ENOUGH  to  catch  on  to  the  tell-tale  sight  of  a  very  specific  (and  literal)  blue  blur.  RELIEF  flooded  through  him  ,  the  sight  letting  loose  a  tension  stored  in  every  little  muscle  and  quick  glance  of  the  eye.   He’d  know  Sonic  anywhere.  ( Though  …  this  did  put  a  damper  on  the  whole  …  solo  adventure  thing.  He’d  been  just  about  to  leave!  Whatever.  Strange  times  and  all  of  that.  )

          ❝  Hey!  Sonic!  Over  here! ❞  He  shouted  ,  waving  wildly  to  grab  the  hedgehog’s  attention.  In  moments  he  was  descending  ,  landing  ,  and  skipping  over  the  ground  towards  the  big  blue.

@spinattacks​ / BIG BRO !!

Sonic’s not gonna lie - having Whisper around was great but... he really did miss a certain little brother of his.

Of course, he missed everyone back home ( knuckles, amy, even shadow! and he even missed that ol’ doctor eggman just a little bit ), but if there was one person he really wished was back at his side, it was Tails. He could always depend on him, despite some moments of weakness here and there ( tails was young, despite his genius skills and all ). And hey, maybe if Tails was here they could figure out a way to get out of here together.

Still, Sonic figured he was doing pretty alright without his best buddy. He had his street smarts and own book smarts to get himself out of most situations, and nothing extremely big has happened where he wished he would have his friends at his side, but he missed the companionship. The calmness he felt with them at his side.

( he never realized how lonely it can be traveling on his own )

❝ Hey!  Sonic!  Over  here! ❞

-- Thankfully, he wouldn’t allow himself to drift into those thoughts as a familiar voice called out to him. Immediately, the blue blur skids to a stop as though his life depended on it, a trail of dust behind him as he changes his direction.

     “Yo! Tails!”

Quick as lightning, he runs towards his best friend, a grin on his face.

     A certain familiar scent drifting upon the wind would draw away Sally’s thoughts on her current situation. It was the smell of fresh chili— something that brought Bunnie’s cooking coming to mind, along with Sonic’s favorite food, that would shift her thoughts over to that of her friends. Idly, the girl would frown.

“They’ve got to be worried for me… I need to find a way home soon. Come on, Sally— think. There’s got to be a way out. If Sonic were here, he’d…” Looking up and trailing off, the girl would find herself unable to speak— as, almost like on cue, the blue blur himself was right across the street, sitting down and eating a chili dog. Immediately crossing (and nearly getting run over), Sally bolted up to the hedgehog with a sudden, “Sonic?!”

“Am I glad to see you! Are the others here too?”

@spinattacks​

It’s not that Sonic is lazing around...

... Alright, maybe it’s a little bit of him lazing around. But at the moment, it’s really all he could do. He tried jumping in the air and rolling into a ball to see if the sky above would break - didn’t exactly work. He tried looking into every alleyway to see if there was a door that would say ‘hey, idiot, the exit is right here’ - nothing came up. He’s not given up, but he knows whoever brought them here was definitely playing a game. So, Sonic was going to play back and maybe cause some trouble for them as well.

But right now, he really had no other choice but to laze around. He had to admit; he kind of saw this as a vacation away from home. He didn’t hate being a hero, far from it, but sometimes it was nice to just kick back and not have a certain scientist try and blow up the moon ( ... again ).

Leaning against the tree with a chilidog in hand, the blue hedgehog in question was considering what to do next with his time here, when all of a sudden...

“Sonic?!”

A familiar name and an unfamiliar voice made his ear twitch in response.

Opening his eyes, emerald hues would stare at the girl before him - a mobian like himself, acting rather all friendly with him. There was something about her, something that he should know of her... and yet doesn’t. Nothing about her rattled in his mind at all.

( and yet, there was a twinge of guilt that struck him because of that )

     “... That’s me! The others? You mean like Tails, Knuckles      and Amy? Nah, they’re not here as far as I know. It’s just      been me 'n Whisper.”

@spinattacks​ || liked for a starter!

silver’s used to loneliness, so why is it bothering him all of a sudden? he’s lucky to at least have whisper, but knowing he can’t visit his new friends at resistance HQ anymore… ugh, he’s being silly. the whole point of this walk was to relax, not get all moody.

as if in response to his turmoil, though, a sudden blast of wind has him stumbling from the path. was that… sonic? wait, there he goes again! slower than normal, it seems, but he’d recognize that blue streak anywhere (and it’s a little embarrassing how quickly the realization lifts his spirit).

he’s sure he’d never be able to catch up, so he instinctively reaches out a glowing hand, intending to sweep the blue blur off his feet with a telekinetic grab. big mistake, unfortunately. forgetting his new limits, the effort causes his head to burst in pain powerful enough to bring him to his knees.

“sonic–! damn it, hold on a second!” then the horrifying realization dawns on him, “oh, he is not going to let me live this down, is he?”

It was true that Sonic wasn’t as fast as he was back home, and it definitely did bother him ( his speed was everything, after all ), but the hedgehog wasn’t one to be in the total dumps about it. As long as he could run, then there wasn’t any real issues to be had. He just had to be patient about gaining his speed back...

So, here he was - running at the speed of sound. Got places to go, gotta follow his rainbow and all that! Despite being trapped here, he was enjoying these little runs he went on, if only because he had to make the best ofa bad situation. A whistle and a hum here, he wasn’t really paying too much thought to his surroundings.

Until an almost kinetic force brushed up against his leg caused him to skid to a stop. Immediately, Sonic skid into an attack stance, ready to fend himself off from whoever was trying to sweep him off his feet! Honestly, the sensation almost felt familiar to him...

... And familiar it was, when he saw the silver-furred hedgehog practically in a fetal position from overusing his limited powers.

     “Woah, Silver!”

Not one to leave a pal hanging, the blue hedgehog quickly zipped to Silver’s side, reaching out to help him up.

     “Y’know, you should probably stop tryin’ to lift me off the ground      every time we meet up! It’s getting a little old! Anyway, are you alright?      C’mon, let’s get you up instead.”

[My vision is perfect. I’ve never seen a hedgehog that’s blue.]

@spinattacks​ said: Alright, whatever you say small critter! 

[Big words from the large blue rat.]

     “Geez, how many times do I have to say this?”

ACTUALLY since i am here i figured i’d make some notes since we have a lot of idw folks coming in / on reserve & bc of frontiers stuff!!!

there hasn’t been any hard confirmation that idw & the games are canon to one another ( ian flynn has stated he’s not opposed to it on his podcast but there’s not been any official word from sega & ian has also stated that anything after the forces storyline is its own separate thing ) SO for the sake of y’know, that - since sonic here is games only, i’ll only have him know tangle & whisper. everyone else will get the ‘who??? lol’ treatment i’m sorry. i still won’t let anyone app idw!sonic because this could very well change, who knows. sonic lore sucks.
