OH YEAH, I FORGOT

OH YEAH, I FORGOT

If you choose to go with the idea that Sonic's counterpart is also King Arthur (the hedgehog, not illusion), then you could also draw up reasons for why he isn't the king in the game.

Mordred was prophesied to kill Arthur, so (as a baby), Mordred was sent on a ship that was supposed to be destroyed, killing everyone aboard it. However, Mordred survived and eventually made his way to Camelot, becoming a knight and usurping Arthur's throne temporarily.

For a parallel, perhaps the illusion Arthur's fate was to be killed by Arthur the hedgehog (and rightful king). In an attempt to escape his fate, he asked for all the hedgehog children to be sent on a boat that was supposed to crash, killing everyone on board, but Arthur ended up surviving, and once Sonic left, took the throne.

If there’s one thing I love in SatBK, it’s that DESPITE being crowned as King Arthur, he actually fills 2 roles (Arthur and Mordred).

Him filling Arthur’s role is PRETTY self explanatory. He’s crowned king at the end of the game, pulled the sword from the stone, leads the knights and kingdom, etc. But Mordred’s role is something ENTIRELY different.

First, Mordred and Sonic both doomed Camelot in different ways: Mordred with usurping Arthur and taking his throne, Sonic with giving the scabbard to Merlina resulted in the kingdom almost being destroyed. Mordred disregarded the code of Chivalry (Sonic does this out of overall disinterest and his morals, Mordred has more lustful habits and unchivalrous behaviors, which Sonic DOES NOT have).

Then, we have the more obvious parallels between them. Mordred killed Arthur, and Sonic did the same with the illusionary Arthur. Mordred used Clarent to kill him, a sword that Arthur used in ceremonies, and BEFORE getting Caliburn, the sword Sonic uses for Misty Lake’s tutorial levels is, in fact, Clarent as well.

This is all REALLY circumstantial, and of course it’s not 100% accurate, I just thought it was a really cool thing to mention.

But I also really want to know what this would mean for Merlina’s dialogue now. After all: “Arthur is struck down by his son Mordred, and departs for Avalon”, but if Sonic fills the roles of BOTH Arthur and Mordred, then Camelot’s ending plays out much differently.

Some more Hero Factory headcanons (Bulk edition)

- He’s the tallest member of the team - After being pinned under the girders during the fight with Corroder, his legs had to be remade. He is the only one that knows this. - Bulk likes to read whenever he can - He and Stringer tend to swap weapons during training - Bulk tends to put himself between a villain and a rookie, often acting as a shield. - All of his armor has more chips/scratching/dents than the rest of the Alpha 1 team's armor

You know... Shadow didn't know about Ring travel in the third movie (since he crashed on Earth in a meteor), so the first (and only) time he would've seen it was when the G.U.N. helicopter arrived in Tokyo, but it would've been unlikely (possibly due to him fighting soldiers at the time). Imagine if the first time he sees a Ring being used is in Sonic 4, and he just has NO IDEA why the portal opened, and Sonic just has to tell him "Yeah, it's safe, I do this all the time", with NO explanation for how the Rings work, or how he knows about them, leaving Shadow with the most confused expression on his face.

5 (possibly) underrated things I always remember about Sonic Boom:

1. Amy is the only member of Team Sonic that can cook, and when everyone else tried, it was purple-ish slop

2. Meh Burgers are vegan, and are made of shredded newspaper and library paste. Sonic is also the only one paying full price.

3. Orbit and Cubot willingly eat marshmallows, despite knowing that it’ll mess with their circuitry

4. Sonic canonically owns glasses, but never wears them (and whether they’re real or fake is up to interpretation).

5. Eggman wasn’t a doctor, and the entirety of Hedgehog Village had a musical number to spread the word.

CROSSPOSTED FROM AO3: I AM DISGUSTED BY RUMORS.

I don't use this account but I've hung onto the handle, and I guess now I'm using that handle to post... this.

To put it bluntly: people have been spreading rumors that I’m a weirdo around children. Details in the doc. TL;DR: I am not. I am utterly revolted by these accusations.

--

It’s come to my attention recently that folks have been spreading rumors that I’m a creep around children. I want to address those rumors here, because I’m sick of people running around and spreading misinformation.

I am DISGUSTED by this. I’m FURIOUS. 

The rumors stem from a source that I will admit IS true: a nsfw fanfic I wrote in 2020ish. That fanfic was Wonderstruck. In my revised version of WS, titled Enchanted (Taylor’s Version), I vaguely touched on this subject in my author’s notes, hoping it would quell any misinformation, but clearly vague isn’t enough, so I’m putting my foot down here.

I would like to preface this by making sure I express right off the bat: I am a SEX-REPULSED ASEXUAL. I don’t even like the idea of sexual interactions with adults, let alone children. Yuck!

That said:

When I wrote WS, I was new to the fandom and eager to make friends. So eager that as I participated in a server full of other, far more popular authors at the time (who enjoyed NSFW content), I felt compelled to write something that would impress them, something that would help me fit in with them. I thought they were cool, and they ended up thinking I was a waste of time. These were big-name people, folks with far more kudos and reads and followers than I had at the time. Thus: I looked up to them.

I will not mention these people by name. I refuse to pass any sort of blame. That’s not the point of this.

That drama aside, I wrote WS to impress these people. I was not coerced or pressured to write smut, but I was driven by the latent, unspoken social pressure I felt when spending time with these people. “These people consume and write smut, ergo, I should do that so I can fit in with them, even though it’s not of my own interest.” I thought that by catering to their interests, I could slip into the clique (and I realize now that it was a clique and not an open, welcoming friend group). 

Probably a dodged bullet that I didn’t get any further with those people, lol. I digress.

That one, single instance of a fic that I have expressed upon multiple occasions my shame surrounding, has blown up into something horrible. Nobody is doing their research about it. I have not been secretive about this situation.

Let me establish a few things.

1.  I do not, in my daily life, enjoy any sort of sexual content, ESPECIALLY NOT that of minors! That is abhorrent! The very thought of consuming underage smut is making me vomit in my mouth a little.

2. I have never in my life DRAWN nsfw content of any kind. Don’t know where that rumor came from. 

3. Since Wonderstruck, I have not written a single nsfw fanfic.

4. In Wonderstruck, I established the characters to be adults. I am fully aware that this is a sticky subject, as many folks do not condone “aging up” characters–but I did want to throw this in. I did not write smut with the intent of writing children. From the very beginning of that fanfic I established Sonic and Shadow to be in their mid-twenties. Take that as you will.

5. I have never groomed or been otherwise weird around a child. The allegation here is INFURIATING.

I fully acknowledge and respect that the fanfic made some minors uncomfortable, and I deeply apologize for that. That fanfic made ME uncomfortable, too! I get it! That’s why I took it down. That’s why I completely rewrote it. I’m uncomfortable, you’re uncomfortable, we’re all uncomfortable. And I know my own past decisions have led me to this point. I’m so, so sorry.

The last thing I want is to create a space that minors feel unsafe in, which is why I’m posting this now. While I’ll be the first to admit I’m jumping into self-defense mode a bit, I also just want to make it clear that I do not, will not, and would never dream of being weird around minors. I’m so sorry that things have spiraled so far that folks believe so. :( 

That single fanfic is not who I am, and I do not want it to be my legacy. That fanfic was a projection of who other people were. It’s not even a pattern–it’s just one awkward instance that I have long since righted.

I just, I dunno. This isn’t the most eloquent thing I’ve ever written, but I’m still so shaky and mad and fucked up over the fact that people out there seem to believe these terrible things. I know I can’t stop rumors. They’ll just keep spreading, and spreading, and spreading. But my hope is that someone out there will hear something and think, “hey, let me do my research.” And they’ll come to my profile and see this.

So, I beg folks to look into things a bit more before they throw out such disgusting, potentially life-damaging allegations about people you don’t know and have never interacted with. I am a real, living human being. I have literally the same exact moral code as the folks throwing out these allegations, and I am furious and outraged and angry and sad that people think I’m one of those disgusting people out there who are actually doing real damage.

If anyone has any questions or wants more details, please don’t hesitate to ask. I want to be as forthright about this situation as possible, because I don’t want it to devolve even further.

Thanks for reading. I’m sorry it had to come to this. I’m gonna take a pause from writing fanfic for a little bit–just long enough to clear my head, probably.

Have a nice day :)

Imagine an episode of Sonic Boom where Sticks and Sonic swap bodies.

Sonic (in Sticks' body) tries to tell everyone what happened, only for no one to believe him (because to them, it's just Sticks being Sticks). Sticks (in Sonic's body) is getting used to the super speed, and is using it to travel around the island in hopes of finding some sort of evidence for her conspiracies.

For a good majority of the episode, no one seems to notice. Sonic's acting a little weird, but nothing too out of the ordinary. Sticks is being Sticks to them, so everything seems all good.

The only reason they notice something's wrong is because Sonic threw off his communicator, and Sticks put it on. It's the last five minutes, and they're hunting down Sticks to reverse the switch, only to find her breaking Sonic's tv in the shack with one minute left in the episode.
