Yeah, that's also why I haven't uploaded any of my own art for almost a month. So...Have a drawing of Team Sonic with intentionally badly cut out party hat jpegs.

But thank all of you who engage in my Sonic Horror shenanigans! Couldn't have made it this far without y'all!

Also the day is pretty much over for me, but I spent a while on this. I'm a little rusty on my Sonic artstyle and I'm still adjusting to my new tablet. Drawing directly onto a screen feels different.

Version without party hats lol

Yes you can! Sorry for leaving you hanging, but! Here's the first 200+ words of Chapter 15 that may or may not be tweaked a little as I continue working on it.

So, Sonic is blue. That we know and understand. Personality traits and values remain as they are: friendly, outgoing, adventurous, and all about freedom.

Knuckles is red. His sole duty in life is bound to Angel Island and the Master Emerald. It's his life, even if he allows himself to step away for a time.

A hue shift towards red implies duty and responsibilities.

Blaze is purple, not too far up a hue-shift from blue, but is in-between red. Instead of neverending freedom and will do to whatever, or being bound to the sole purpose of being a guardian, she has responsibilities of the crown and will do her duty to protect to Sol Emeralds.

Jet is green. Green is a hue shift in the opposite direction, so instead of an overwhelming sense of responsibility, there's a rise of cockiness and arrogance.

Shadow is an interesting case. It's not his colour exactly that makes Sonic his opposite. It's more of his own will that differs. His personality isn't exactly inverted, it's more of an amplification of what Sonic isn't.

Sonic is chill, Shadow is stiff.

Sonic is excitable, Shadow hardly budges.

Sonic saves the world through his own will because he believes that everyone should have a chance to be free; Shadow saves the world to protect the dying wish of someone else he really cared for.

Am I onto something or does this make no sense?

New Chapter!

Chapter 14 is finally here! Yayy!!!

Accidentally made this one and realised how cool it was (at least to myself anyway).

I feel that Knuckles should get weird mobian biology privileges like Shadow does since he's the guy who sits next to one of the most powerful objects on the planet.

It'd be so funny if Knuckles was bioluminescent or something because of all the Chaos Energy he's absorbed all his life. Not by much, just kinda like a glowstick that's always going.

I can imagine Sonic becoming increasingly exasperated trying to explain to Shadow how to function as close to a normal mobian as physically possible so that G.U.N. has a harder time discovering him and Shadow just goes "what's the point of all this? I don't get it. I hate this skin already, get it off me."

Like trying to remind him to blink so he doesn't stare deep into peoples' souls as much, and he does, but with a third eyelid so he doesn't lose sight (Immediately freaks Sonic out on the spot).

Or attempting to explain to him that he can't just morph his body around in public to get around the discomfort of existing in a form he doesn't like (if you're unaware, the Doom Morph in this AU is Shadow's true base form and he can shapeshift into a hedgehog. Pretty much the reverse of SxS Gens).

No, splitting your face open to scare away people you don't like isn't a good idea. You're trying to stay hidden from those guys who want to finish the job of killing you.

No Shadow, eating people is wrong, even if you're an alien. Yes, even if they're bad people like the ones who killed your favourite human.

Try not to make weapons out of your or my limbs unless you really need to protect yourself.

Please don't take over my body unless I need you to. I don't wanna have to "explain" that to the public, and it's kind of existentially terrifying for me to lose control (Don't tell anyone I said that).

I understand that your "quills" are technically your tentacles and kinda wanna move on their own, but you're sorta freaking out those people across the street.
