It's a secret to everybody.

Blacked out for 5 hours and this appeared on my screen

Okay so some surgeamy headcanons:

I like to imagine that they have a very intimate and intense situationship that forms purely on attraction and chemistry. Instead of being in "I can fix her" mode Amy's in "I'm so curious about this person I want to be around them all the time" mode. And for Surge it's kinda like the rest of her life where she feels something really intensely but can't understand why and it controls damn near every aspect of her psyche. She probably didn't even develop this insecurity until seeing a tender moment between Sonic and Amy and realizing in that moment that he likes her [too].

But now that she's got this idea in her head it's all she can think about. She lashes out and does foolish things to test her own heart. And Amy is curious if what surge feels is real or not because that would change everything. It would force her to put a stop to this and while she wants to help Surge she doesn't want this exciting new feeling to end so soon.

Amy has enough emotional distance from this situation that she feels comfortable waiting until the very last moment to call it quits but also the longer they get entangled together the more Amy starts to question her own heart as well. Surge is also emotionally everywhere. One moment she's in love with her, the next she's convinced this is all fake and can't stand to even look at her. But also, Amy isn't as in control of her own feelings as she thinks she is. Ultimately she is being led by her own desire for excitement and attraction and not just her willingness to help a friend.

BORN TO FAIL - A SONIC THE HEDGEHOG FANZINE

a look into the thoughts, futures, and failures of a select few sonic robots. what lives to they build for themselves, and how do they learn to live in the first place?

got inspired to draw a character i have never drawn in my life

you really gotta read born to fail it owns so much

◇Metal Sonic design (and the original comic "Born to Fail" from which this is based upon) by @fernsnailz

♡Firstly, thank you fernsailz both for making the comic that inspired me to make my first, full fledged comic after several years of failing to do so, and also allowing me to do what I realize is the MOST self-indulgent and giddy i've ever been.

♧Secondly, I am nervous, to write this. My knowledge of sonic is not vast. My understanding of characters may slip, despite all the research i put into them. My writing & character voice is subpar, but for once I have managed to create something out of love for this franchise and i think I needed this as well.

So even though I'm scared, frightened by the possibilies, every racing future in my mind that says "things will go wrong" "they will hate you" "you will be a failure" i find kinship in this character. Perhaps i too will learn to live. Perhaps i too will learn to love being alive.

So hopefully, this comic isn't too "out of character" or so blastfully horrificly beyond redemption as my anxious ridden brain percieves it be. I know, in my heart its not. But writing this out feels better than keeping the thoughts within me.

♤Thirdly, I know Chaos 0 isn't exactly a world-renowed beloved character that everyone does indepth analysis or theory crafting on. Thus, this ship may feel strange, or completely out of left feild to some.

In response, I have created an [ additional blog post ] outlining what I believe Chaos 0's character.

Of course, everyones interpretation of a character (what they represent, themes, and how they are handled) is largely a subjective process. So never take my iteration of him as gospel, and i encourage you (who are curious) to seek out information on him and determine for yourself who Chaos 0 is to you.

(That goes for Metal Sonic as well, but i'm focusing on Chaos because if not, who else will?)

☆Lastly, if anyone has tips or critque for me regarding making more belivable character dialouge, i'd be happy to hear. (Also theres a lot of artistic rendering inconsitencies- which is mostly because this took me a few months to make..😓✌️)
