BBHS AU MOMENTS

After watching s5 where Catra acknowledges everything she did wrong, apologises and spends the rest of her time onscreen trying to make up for it and becoming a less toxic person, repaying Adora for her stubborn loyalty and engaging in adorably reciprocated flirting, culminating in one of the most beautiful love confession scenes that I’ve ever had the privilege to witness:

it was fucking beautiful!

Wrong Hordak is such a dumbass 

protagonist: So who’s with me?

*5 seconds of silence*

the stoic one: *looks up* im in

4 people one after the other: me to

*after everyone else has joined we see The Edgy One standing in the back*

*2 more seconds of silence*

Possible Headcanon: Sonic has feelings for Amy, and is fully aware of it, but simply doesn’t entertain the fact that he likes her.

It’s not about him being worried she’ll be used as bait by Eggman, or that he doesn’t realize how he feels; it’s about him and his pride.

I thought about this after seeing the unused Love Tester from Sonic Mania and how Sonic reacts when he gets Amy. She is his match, but he’s uncomfortable/upset about it. He probably thinks he’s too cool for such lovey-dovey things (and Amy is the queen of lovey-dovey).

Amy’s tarot cards also tell her that he is her destiny, and her senses/premonitions aren’t usually wrong. Even when she mistakenly hugged Silver and Shadow, Sonic was actually just several feet away.

Basically, Sonic knows in his heart that he feels something for Amy, but his mind doesn’t want it to be true.

I also figure this from the numerous times some games and the Sonic social media will tease that Sonic is hiding something in regards to Amy.

Just a few instances for example:

Why won’t he just clearly state if he likes her or not?

She’s also called his “long-time love” in Sonic 06:

And Ohshima basically says he’s immature:

He avoids her and pushes her away because he doesn’t want to be in a relationship, afraid that it will infringe upon his freedom and lifestyle of doing whatever he wants whenever he wants. However, the more Amy inserts herself into his life, the more he likes her. They’ve grown a closer friendship in recent games, as Amy has become less overtly affectionate.

He also never initiates affection with Amy because he knows he doesn’t have to. Amy always gives him attention without him needing to do anything at all. Whenever Amy doesn’t pay attention to him, he notices:

Also, the “love expert” in Unleashed calls Sonic awkward (and then teaches Sonic about what girls actually like):

Sonic hides how he feels because he’s embarrassed. He’s supposed to be the coolest guy around, and yet he’s got a crush on this girl that’s been following him around since they first met, publicly proclaiming her love?

He’s just a cocky guy who doesn’t want people to think he’s soft to gushy things.

What other character adds this to Sonic? No one.

I don’t think nor believe that Sonic team added Amy “just because”. A lot of people often complain about why add this female character if they are never going to make them an official couple and personally, I think all of them are missing the point. 

The people at Sonic Team love to ship tease Sonic with Amy. They can’t have their fun if they were to make them a couple. Plus, considering that Sonic is a character that was designed to be as free as the wind, it makes perfect sense that the female character that they introduced to be his love interest to be the one that gives chase after him, and gave her an endless supply of optimism and a strong determination so that she could do this without ever feeling sad because Sonic does not reciprocate her advances. 

The thing I like about Sonamy is that Amy first starts as just another person that Sonic rescues. After CD, Sonic would probably had forgotten about Amy, but she didn’t, and insisted over and over until she finally made her way into becoming a familiar face and then, a very close friend that he can always count on..

Over time, I think Sonic has changed into being more accepting of Amy being around him, just like how Amy seems to be moving past her short-sighted impulses and gives Sonic his space, which is corresponded by him letting her join in his adventures, so that she may never lose her interest in him. The second issue of the IDW comic showed this, with Amy displaying her understanding, assuring Sonic that she loves him so much that she would never do anything to take away the things he loves like his freedom and adventurous life, to which Sonic responds that it’s not like it’s all or nothing, and that she is welcomed to join him.

However, one element of Sonic’s personality that probably keeps him from ever being openly affectionate is not just the pride in his rightfully earned image as a cool hero, but also his own privacy. I imagine that Sonic is the kind of people that feels uncomfortable at the idea of his private life and feelings becoming the object of talks and conversations by either his friends or strangers. This is why I think that in the 52nd episode of Sonic X, Sonic’s words were muted, because they were meant to be heard only by Amy, not by the audience.
