Thanks for this ask cuz I feel so honoured to shame GUN for everything they've done. That previous post about Shadow wasn't enough, they did so many terrible things and I can't believe I didn't write this before your ask.

I can barely list all the worst things they did but I'll try and I'll answer to your other stuff so I hope you're ready and I hope you don't mind this whole analysis 😅 but I really wanted to talk more about GUN and since you clearly hate/dislike them just as much as I do (and many feel the same way) I really want to complain about them to someone who'll listen:

They were the ones that sent Robotnik in the first place. At least at the beginning he was just doing his job.

They knew that Gerald was Ivo's grandfather and alive all these years but they chose to not tell Ivo and let him think that he has no family his entire life. They used him because he was a genius and wanted him to make all those inventions for them and when they thought that he died they just acted as if he never existed.

They hired one of their agents to seduce Sonic's aunt, propose to her, and plan the whole wedding so that they would capture Sonic (I'm sorry I'm trying to stay serious but what the hell is wrong with GUN?! I don't know if I should cry or laugh and this is only the beginning). Poor Rachel too! They didn't care about anyone whether it was humans or aliens. I kinda wasn't happy that Rachel couldn't stay mad, what they did to her was horrible.

They captured Sonic and Tails. Tails was injured when they captured him and they didn't do anything about it, they simply put him and Sonic in cages after they tased Sonic to make sure he's unconscious too, they arrested Tom too when he tried to defend his son. This scene always breaks me, poor babies 😢

They found Shadow when he landed on Earth, kidnapped him, held him in a cryo pod and were doing experiments on him. (Gee, I wonder why Tom and Maddie didn't trust GUN with Sonic and kept Sonic hidden in their house instead after the first movie).

They were responsible for the death of a child, Maria (Walters did try to protect her and Shadow but when others killed her he mistreated Shadow. He definitely had more sympathy for Maria, she was a human child after all.) This moment right here physically hurts me cuz not only that they don't seem to care about the child they just killed but also they're surrounding Shadow and Gerald with weapons as if Shadow and Gerald were the ones who did something terrible here... They didn't care about the child they just killed, they only wanted to capture Shadow, that was their priority and Maria was just a collateral damage.

Right after they killed Maria they threw Gerald, her grandfather who loved her, in jail for 50 years and forced him to make Eclipse Cannon, that can destroy the planet. He went crazy because of all that and WHO WOULDN'T?!

They froze Shadow for 50 years (would definitely stay frozen way longer if he didn't escape) because they just didn't know what to do with him and kept him awake and fully aware of what they were doing to him during the process. I'll once again remind y'all of Walters' comment that Shadow was "too valuable to destroy", because Shadow was property to them and not a young living being with feelings and trauma that they gave him. His face here breaks my heart... Look how helpless he was here...

I added as many examples of how terrible GUN is as I can remember but if there are more you can always add them in the comments. I could easily add every scene and every screenshot with GUN cuz even at their better moments, they're still really bad, but I tried to pick the most important parts.

As for Rockwell, yeah she's gonna be a handful. She's definitely worse than Walters. At least he realized in his last moments that you can trust some aliens, but she isn't going to be easy to convince. They'll probably be even worse from now on and they probably didn't learn their lesson after Shadow. They better not hurt my baby girl Amy or the Colorful Bunch. I have some theories but I'd rather wait and see what's next.

Amy was hiding her identity here from Metal Sonic but I'm not sure if she doesn't want GUN to find her either cuz she's not hiding from Sonic, she let him see her.

FINALLY, a good question! I'm actually working on a device to get in contact with our younger selves! Y'know, from that whole time eater thing?

Mhm. You sure this device won't blow up again?

Sure I'm sure! I've put in like so many safety precautions! It's perfectly safe!

If you say so...

As for the other question, it's probably been awhile. We just really have't had the time...

Woah cool sonic oc! I’d love to see fanart of this lovely fellow that doesn’t sound at all similar to the main protagonist of the franchise

I like tails

I should draw tails

UHMM UH UH

this is kinda like the question “what’s your fav song” to me becus it changes constantly so this is hard aughhh

but i’d say either shadow or scourge currently

(side note does shadow count HELP?? like technically we don’t really know gerald’s inspo but most people think it’s sonic cus of that ancient painting so idk probably) (i also haven’t gotten around to reading the SxS gens stuff yet so maybe this was established and i’m just dummy who knows) (i’m aware i’m reading too much into this and they literally ask why they look like each other in many media so duh ofc it works but hhshfigjgkgk i get like this about everything so LMAO)

scourge is a little biased becus i’m planning on cosplaying him soon and i’m gathering lots of materials and inspo and such, along with me just being a lil freak about archie sonic in general. like the fact that he went from generic “evil sonic” to being a fully fleshed out character is amazing to me. and that quote where he says something like “one bad day and you would’ve ended up just like me” is something i think about a lot.

and then shadow is just literally… everywhere… so he’s grown on me a ton over this past year (which makes sense cus it was his year). he’s just such a cool dude fr who wouldn’t wanna be edgy while skating around all day that is my emo dream honestly

shout out to the others i can think of off the top of my head being surge, chaos sonic, and metal/neo sonic. surge especially has my heart out of these three specifically cus she’s the only girlboss we love women here 🗣️‼️ and if there’s any obscure ones that i missed that anyone knows about lemme know cus i’m always hype to learn more sonic lore

Heya!! Nice to meetcha too!
