"I have missed you"
Just thinking about how mullet Stan would sob if he knew his future. Just the most soulful, happy tears ever. He did it. He fixed the portal. He saved his brother. He saved the *world*. He has a family and they actually love him. He's old and on adventures with his twin and has a psuedo-son that he passes his business on to. He punched a pterodactyl in the face and fought zombies and seemingly destroyed a being that was as close to a god as he could imagine.
Dying here at the idea of Stone fetching the doctor.
Rob: Stone?! What are you- *gags as Stone grabs his collar and begins to drag him away*
Stone: You. Me. Home. NOW!
*Robotnik is too speechless but a blush appears as he realizes his agent missed him*
Living the fantasy I guess
ko-fi
So I’m on AO3 and I see a lot of people who put “I do not own [insert fandom here]” before their story.
Like, I came on this site to read FAN fiction. This is a FAN fiction site. I’m fully aware that you don’t own the fandom or the characters. That’s why it’s called FAN FICTION.
sonic boom au where stone is just a guy with power-armour(trademark eggman industries) but team sonic thinks he's a robot because what sane guy would willingly follow eggman of all people(joke's on them for assuming stone is sane)
thinking/initial designing:
and him and the others in situations (weirdly no TM) (huh havent not done situations TM in a while):
i love sonic boom guys :) (<- totally normal statement of totally normal guy who didnt watch all 104 eps over one weekend(while making notes) because he had one (1) au idea and needed to know the lore of the show infamous for having basically non-existent lore)
edit: now with a silly comic tie in! :)
(previously mentioned au details under the cut :) )
okay so.
lets go chronologically because that way i have smthn to come back to when i eventually have a weird side tangent about like idk the watsonian vs doylist explanation of his gloves.
they first got to know each other i would say around college, if eggman can study evil science to a phd level one would assume there would also be a henchman course.
or maybe a barista course, that sounds like a funny sonic boom bit ("being a barista? really?" "what can i say the school had range!"), in any case the details are irrelevant whats important is that they got to know each other and their dynamic evolved.
then disaster struck! stone disappears/dies in some kind of tragic cliche machine malfunctions way (maybe that's why eggman couldn't finish that phd... even those 2 credits were a little too much atm for him...)
fast forward: the show happens the way it does (and thats why stone had to be presumed dead - if there was any hope of him returning eggman's ass would not act like the lonely loser he is in the show.) and then mysteriously reappears (the same machine that took him away returned him from some kind of shadow dimension? alternate reality stone who burned his world to the ground after his eggman's death(we love a crashout king) found out other worlds exist and, much like morpho, emigrated? secret 3rd scenario i didnt think of yet? who knows! what's important is that he's back!) and joins eggman in being a menace of the week.
of course, he likes to contribute more physically, not just float above in the eggmobile, so eggman builds him an advanced power-armour to protect him (left-over guilt and protectiveness from what took him away in the first place? 😏 you decide) and also to give him these cool claws!!!! and taser gloves!!!!!!!!! because he would look so cool!!!! why not make his love interest favourite henchman (and definitely NO deeper feelings there WHATSOEVER thank you very much) as cool and badass as possible. makes eggman look good too, for making such a suit dont it!
anyway wearing what is only a few bolts short of a mech suit that distorts his voice paired with his cool [shadow dimension survivor/evil warlord/secret 3rd thing] moves makes team sonic think "oh wow, egg-head made an actually competent robot for once."
of course, wearing the aforementioned few-bolts-short-of-a-mech-suit does not, in-fact, stop Stone from being a very loud simp("YOU'RE MAGNIFICENT, DOCTOR!"). which makes team sonic come to some... conclusions.(except for sticks, who can smell the government agent on him and knows he's not a robot the entire time. nobody believes her of course.)(how can he be a government agent if he "died" at henchman college? good question! ......anyway.)
the conclusions eventually culminate in a kidnapping of an egg for an intervention. ("dude, we know you're lonely" "painfully lonely" "painfully lonely, but this is too weird, even for you. we didn't say anything about mom-bot, or steve, but c'mon man...") during which it dawns on eggman that they all think stone is a robot. not a flesh and blood guy.
so he for once has to be the voice of reason(he cant believe it either) and clear the room, even if team sonic is being difficult at first ("he's literally wearing a normal suit underneath my ingenious exoskeleton!" "oh we thought it was like... part of his deal." "like judge bot!" "or like that time orbot had an airhostess outfit on." "yeah exactly, your robots wearing clothes isn't exactly abnormal egg-face." "and we can't forget swifty the shrew." "no, we 100% can and will forget swifty the shrew.")
just as eggman's done clearing the air a murderous and helmetless (he just got back from whatever it is he does when hes not simping(maybe a knitting club! he seems the type) to not find eggman anywhere and orbot and cubot fucking floating around panicking saying he was kidnapped, his ass only had time for the electric gloves and the claw cuffs) and beats team sonic in like 10 seconds flat and eggman has to calm him down (wow twice in one evening being the voice of reason? what has the world come to?!) and explain the sitch to him too.
anyway bada bing bada boom, sticks was right(this does fuck all for her credibility like always), and after several bonding episodes where amy gets to know Stone better she plots to do another intervention for him for having such shit taste in men.
and that's about it yea :)
i have other scenarios and like pieces of funny little dialogues rattling around in my brain but yea thats the gist of it :)
if you managed to read this far i hope you have a nice rest of your day! :)
question: do you think stone would wear a dress (or a maid dress woah who said that) is robotnik asked him to do so? How would they both react? :3
This is an important step on the plan to conquer the world, trust.

modern-day changeling tales
Stobotnik is conceptually the funniest ship to ever exist. It’s a gay ship with the villain from sonic the hedgehog and his fruity assistant who was supposed to be a bit charecter until Jim Carrey asked if he could stick his fingers in the other guy’s mouth and oh yeah Jim Carrey is there. Said bit character simped so hard for Jim Carrey that his role was expanded on in the sequels to the point where it becomes an emotional plot point in the climax of the third movie. They’re doomed by the narrative. They’re main goal in life is to kill Dewey from ducktales. there is a good chance that fruity ass assistant man could go mad with grief over losing Jim Carrey to the point of becoming the villain of the fourth movie.
like you can’t make this shit up. It’s fucking beautiful. Jim carrey’s dead cousin is right humanity is a gift.
girl's night!!

(here's a follow-up post^^ thanks for all the notes everyone!!!)
btw guys, you can do spoiler text on AO3! here's the html:
<details><summary>the text you want people to see</summary>The text you want to spoiler or hide</details>
it turns it into a little toggleable drop down that shows things and then hides them. it's great for content warnings in ao3 notes if you're worried about spoiling your fic--people who feel like they can proceed without any specific warnings can do so but people who want to see a warning or spoiler can choose to.
i tried it on firewatch au chapter three, it works:
if that html doesn't work, then here's the reddit comment i got it from by an r/ao3 moderator and former ao3 staff memeber. I copied it from here and it worked perfectly, but it didn't paste into tumblr so I manually typed it.
Hmm I wonder why ao3 didn’t like that
