The Tails Squad find out that they can bring back "Souvenirs" from the games they went to (Basically anything they can hold onto/fit into a bag/some form of storage before going back to their world)
They immediately go to loot games like RaC, several RPG's, and Minecraft
And to think it all started when Sails forgot he was holding some random sword from an open world game they went to.
The Squad would be bringing overpowered artifacts and weapons when they battle someone. Bringing guns to a fist fight.
When they grounded from tech and get bored, they start LARPing with actual magic infused stuff. One of their friends asks to join and gets shocked to the core when those things work and now one of them has a chicken head (yes I'm stealing from TMNT SHHHH!)
Sonic sees a very familiar weapon and promptly freezes.
"Tails, Tails, where did you find Excalibur? TAILS?!"
*IDW Tails and Modern playing some futuristic action games on console or something*
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
The two foxes grin at each other. 15 minutes later, the so called gadget is missing and npcs are freaking out
"Is that the golden apple?"
"I have no idea what you're talking about." *Crunch*
Ali and the Forty Thieves
Aka SatSR Tails and his counterparts pilaging videogames for cool artifacts. They have a secret storage 'cave' for the treasure under their collective hangout lab
Like mysterious cottages in the woods where you can get magic stuff or whatever, the Squad now has potions. From Minecraft. They craft it and then take it. Menaces. Absolute menaces.
Tails totally did not spike Sonic's chilidogs once with the slowness potion to win a race against him nuh uh no sir.
Random videogame protag: "Wait- where did my staff go?!"
Meanwhile, evil cackles and magic explosions occur 3 dimensions away.
Oh hey look, freshly cooked lovely delicious meals and snacks from those cooking games.
Something happens in Modern's world and they need a very particular vehicle very quick, no time to build it, need it NOW quick. All the friends freaking out over this and Tails goes, "Don't worry I got this"
He fiddles with Miles Electric and within 5 minutes, a hanger that had stood empty an hour ago opens to reveal the exact vehicle they needed, Boom giving them a casual wave as he drives it.
Every object in games that can be grabbed or picked up by the player, can be brought back with them.
Now some crucial clues and keys from those point and click mystery games are missing so nobody could break their high score
Not Nine and Tails pulling a heist on Octavius and Spidey to steal the Iron Spider-Man suit and those tentacles for Halloween costumes
GUN's systems go haywire with warning of unknown unlicensed unverified spacecrafts and rockets and shuttles and satellites appearing out of nowhere all of a sudden and the entire HQ freaking out when two get launched while giving off separate and opposite but very similar mirror like tragectories.
Team Dark goes to investigate and finds that Classic and OVA got carried away playing Space Flight Simulator
There are so many fun things that can be done with this idea. Gamers, take it away!
