hi knuckles. i think you’re aro- ace, maybe Tails and Sonic can explain it to you and you’ll feel more understood
Aro ace... I do not know these words. I will ask. SONIC! *He marches through the house until he finds Sonic, Tails, and Cream putting stickers on Metal while he's napping with Amy on the couch*
Hey Knucks. What's up?
Explain the aro and ace to me.
...oh, uh. Now?
Yes.
I can help! I've done a lot of research on this stuff.
Oookay. Here, Cream, finish the job for us. Just uh.. be careful. His claws are sharp, so don't put any on his hands. *He gives Cream the rest of the stickers*
Okay Mister Sonic!!
*Sonic walks over to Knuckles and crosses his arms while Tails flies after him* Okay, so.. why are you asking about label stuff?
A silent voice told me to.
...........
.......
In the glowing box of asking.
Ohhh. You mean Tumblr. Hahah.. Okay. Umm.. Aroace basically means... How do I put this...
Here, let me! I'll start with aro. Aro is short for aromantic. It means you aren't interested in romantic relationships. Like going on dates and saying sweet nothings and being lovey dovey and stuff like that isn't appealing to you.
That is true. Continue.
So then ace is short for asexual. It's the same idea as aro, but for ace, you're not into anyone physically. You don't wanna kiss them or be close to them, and you aren't drawn to people based on physical attributes.
Yeah, like you don't think people are hot.
Hot?
...yeah, uh... Like have you ever seen someone and been like "damn!" Because they look real nice?
No. Physical attributes are merely indicators of lineage and adequacy in survival and battle.
... That... Makes sense.
Well only you can be certain, Knuckles, but it sounds to me like you might be aroace! Congrats!
....... Thank you for explaining this to me. What.. do I do with this information?
Not much, uh.. it's kinda just there to help you understand yourself. Like I'm bi, and no one really cares much, but it helps me feel more secure to have a word for it.
Mhm! And sometimes people don't like labels at all. It's up to you!
Fascinating.
((Psst! I know the descriptions aren't fully accurate, but I wanted to keep it simple for this. Thanks for understanding <3 -Mod))
Round One
Knuckles/his hat (TMoStH) vs Knuckles/no one
KnuxHat (TMoStH)
AroAce Knuckles
This poll is for the version of Knuckles/his hat from The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog vs Knuckles/no one at all All ships included were submitted to us. This tournament does not accept insults towards either ship - use propaganda to uplift your fave, not put down the opponent
Hmm... Hey Knux? Are you with anyone? Like, you know. I heard Rouge isn't on your list. And I figured there's someone perfect as a company for you on Angel Island. If you still live there. That someone being Sticks. She is your friend (I believe), you come from a tribe, and grew up mostly in the wild just like she did. Yes she's a bit... Feral so to say. But she also makes traps. That would perfectly work in keeping the Emerald safe. Maybe, once she's done with a little mission of hers... You could think about it? Actually speaking of the mission. She's tracking some hooligans. And they caught onto her sort of. Mayhaps she could use your assist. We'll inform if she does need help.
As for who I am with, I am currently eating pizzas with Silver the Hedgehog and his companion.
Hi! Espio, try some! It's cheese.
... I see that. *He takes it, eating the slice while awkwardly looking around at the many boxes of pizza, plethora of breads, and only three people eating*
And I am familiar with Sticks! She is a good friend and comrade, though.. perhaps her ramblings can.. ramble a bit at times. However, I respect her creativity. And you say the Hooligans are back?
Oh no.. not them again.
I concur. I did not enjoy dealing with them before, but I will do so again should the need come. If Sticks is in need of assistance, I will be there as quickly as possible. I have dealt with these foes before. She does not know their ways. They are far more powerful than they appear to be.
Hm.
Who's that?
I wil explain later. It's a long story.
You mentioned she may be a good fit for guarding the Master Emerald, yet she has never shown any interest in such a thing. I am curious as to your reasoning. She is clever and an excellent fighter, but I would not have assumed her to be a warrior fit for that kind of mission. It is dangerous and exhausting. Though... I do believe she has mentioned before that she can go over a month without sleep... Even I am not capable of such a thing. I will consider this.
Hey Knuckles and Alice, how’s the Arm Wrestling contest going?
*They've stacked half the furniture in the first floor. Knuckles is standing on top of the pile, one arm braced against Alice's big claw* I am ready!
Are you sure? You're so small...
I may be smaller than you are, Alice, but I am a fierce and powerful warrior!! I am one million percent muscle!
Okaaaayyyy... Ready? Go!
*Knuckles starts pushing*
*Alice watches him. She isn't pushing very hard. Just for fairness she decides to push back. She accidentally shoves him and the entire tower over onto the floor* WAH! SORRY!!
*Knuckles does a flip and lands on the ground among the furniture as it clatters down around him. He turns and grabs one of her legs, lifting with all his might. He manages to lift her just off the ground*
AAH! WHAT THE HELL?? WOAHHH!!
HAHA!! I MAY BE SMALL BUT I AM MIGHTY!! LIKE THE GREAT AND POWERFUL ANT!!
I'M FLYING!!!
YOU ARE NOT!! *He sets her down. Alice picks him up and hugs him*
AAAA that was so much fun!! I had no idea you were that strong!!
Hah!! You are not the largest object I have lifted.
.... Soooooo... Are you single?
What?
I dunno.
.... Okay. We are done here. Put me down.
Aw.. *She sets him down* .... Should we clean this up?
*Knuckles looks around at the mess* Hm. I do not want to! Let us procrastinate until tomorrow.
Yeah!! Thanks for arm wrestling with me!
Yes! You are welcome. *He turns and walks off*
*Alice sighs, swooning as she walks back into her garage*

I didn't exactly mean Sticks to take over fully in your absence. More so be a good assistant. To be fair, even as just a friend, she would feel at home on your island. It's wild and untouched by technology. Pure nature. Lots of space too, the island is huge. And well... She is adventurous too. Could be good company for treasure hunting. She likes shiny things. Badgers also dig well like you do. Sorry if that's very pushy for ya bud. Maybe I'm too much of a shipper brain.
But besides that... *Summons a teapot* Hi Silver, it was me Fluffy all along lol. Up for the forgotten tea party? My pot is special, the tea you pour from it, will always be the holder's favorite. :3
Hmm.. Her skills in combat and digging are quite impressive... Perhaps I will allow her to visit the island, if she so pleases. But the care of the Master Emerald is far too great a task to be handed down lightly. She may only come to the island as a visitor until I have seen proof of her capability and loyalty. Also... What is a "shipper?"
Oh! Fluffy, hi! Aw jeez, so much has been happening, I totally forgot, whoops! That teapot is so cool, haha! You invited Blaze, right? She told me she's on her way back to our part of the island. She should be here soon! Ohh, she'll get to meet Espio and Charmy! This is gonna be so much fun :)
Knuckles, why won’t you have a partner? Do you not have feelings for anyone or do you not allow yourself to for your own reasons? Don’t you think rouge is lowkey bad LMAO
Rouge has made bad decisions in her past, yes. But she has proven herself to stand on our side when the time comes. Also! I have teammates. I have friends. I do not see any reason to need anything else. Plus I do not understand what feelings you are talking about. The others have explained it to me, and yet I still fail to understand.
