Why Is Roll Mercury's Favorite?
Why is roll Mercury's favorite?
Oh God, first time answering an ask, bear with me here.
To answer your question though, there are three main reasons. Primary being that Mercury loves getting free stuff and Roll loves giving gifts. It's kind of a shock when Roll gives him a gift, she's actually the first one to ever do that, since he's always so used to stealing from other people. Not only that, but it was a thoughtful one too, some flowers Roll noticed he liked and a couple of premium E-Tanks. Mercury wasn't used to that type of kindness and was drawn in fast.
He also just likes how chipper and empathetic she is, the stardroids are more accustomed to negativity so it's not something Mercury sees often. To him, it was refreshing to meet a genuinely good person that wants to help rather than hurt. Initially, he thought she was gullible and always tried to find ways to get a rise out of her. Unluckily for Mercury, Roll can also be a troll when she wants to be and gets back at him when he goes too far. Basically, Roll's fun to be around.
He's also kind of fascinated by Roll's kindness and positivity and deep down, he reallllly wants that for himself, but since those traits aren't physical he can't steal them away like he usually does. Mercury can mimic them, but he ultimately has to change and become more than what he was made for.
If you asked Mercury himself why he likes Roll so much he'd probably tell you the first reason I mentioned like: "She gives me free stuff." While he does mean that, I think subconsciously, he holds a deep appreciation for Roll that he either isn't aware of, or doesn't acknowledge verbally.

A while ago I posted about an obscure character from MegaMan named Piano, but recently I remembered another obscure character. He's from the Sonic games this time around and his name is Feel the Rabbit.
Here's some doodles, info, and some silly musings about him. See y'all at the end!
To start off, before Sega created Sonic to counter Mario, they held a mascot design contest. Feel was one of many options, another being Eggman in pajamas called Mr. Snooze. (I think)
This would make Feel the prototype of our favorite Blue Blur.
One of his abilities include using his ears to grab things, sort of like Tangle and her tail. I'm pretty sure it was a coincidence, but the ideas are similar enough that I wouldn't be surprised if Feel inspired Tangle's creation too. At least a little bit.
Silly idea, I figured he'd be almost completely mute, much like classic sonic was in the games. Since he doesn't talk a lot I tried to make his ears more expressive to make up for his lack of voice. This idea makes him seem more dramatic and I like it!
Speaking of, personality wise, we don't have much to go on. Sega was only looking for a new design at the time after all, so personality probably wasn't first on the list of priorities. That's just leaves us to guess and make up something new for our dashing little prototype rabbit. Here's what I have:
What if Feel was Sonic's older brother? The person (mobian?) that inspired Sonic to be the brave and kind freedom fighter we all know him as now. Granted, Feel was never as fast as Sonic, but he always seemed to get there before the little blue hedgehog. Probably using his ears to playfully yank Sonic and slow him down a little. Feel was a prankster and Sonic was all for it. Those two were such drama queens and always found someway to liven up the mundane Island they lived on. Running races, eating good food, busting baddies, even stopping to smell the flowers were good times well spent. They did everything together for a long while.
Though, that wouldn't last forever. Sonic and Feel had to say goodbye to each other one final time.
That's okay though. Even if his older brother isn't here anymore, Sonic had always remembered the first lesson Feel ever taught him.
"Even a small act of kindness goes a long way."
To the people that had the chance to read the TMNT 2012/Batman Adventures crossover comic:
Do you think Batman would adopt the turtles once he's been made aware of Master Splinter's passing?
The thought had been in my mind for the longest time and I can't help but imagine Bruce Wayne, the Batman, single handedly taking the earliest flight to New York with adoption papers in hand after seeing the messages between Donnie and Batgirl. Messages which start out lighthearted but then slowly come to a stop because the turtles are busy with the Krang and the remnants of the Foot Clan. Once Donnie finally does respond to Batgirl's messages he starts with the classic "EvEryThiNGs fiNe!" but then that slowly starts to fall apart. The Bat family are detective's, the best around at that, they're gonna figure out that something changed the last time they saw the turtles.
Phantom doesn't do well when he knows he's in trouble but is also too honorable to back out and just sits there waiting for whatever comes next.
Alrighty, Meria sends good luck from over here!
New video that talks about the merch for The Amazing Digital Circus just came out-

One scene in it also reminded me of this doodle I drew a while ago-
Surprise doodles I forgot to post!
The Amazing Digital Circus finally got to me....
With that said, allow me to introduce you to the circus's very own...
Animal Tamer!!
Abel!
Aka, my own personal take on the speculation surrounding C&A.
There's biblical imagery in TADC if you look for it, especially when it comes to our beloved Ringmaster himself, Caine, who's believed to be named after the first murderer in the bible. That paired with the C&A logo that briefly shows up has led people to believe that Caine had a brother named Abel.
This is just what I think Abel would look like if he does show up in the future or at all. I imagine Abel's an AI, like Caine, but is surprisingly emotionally intelligent and ran the program that allowed humans to leave the circus. (Slight reference to @fannele's version of Able) If we follow the pilot, then something happened to him, but since Caine was described to be a silly guy by @gooseworx themselves, I don't think he had anything to do with it. (If he did it might've been an accident.) The programmers might have potentially removed Abel or accidentally deleted him for some reason, we can't know for sure.
Those are just my thoughts on Abel and whether it's right or wrong, I don't really care. I just like how this guy came out! I'll be honest though, I probably should've chosen a better pose that convey's Abel's personality a bit more. That and he just generally looks like Caine but with a different outfit and a different head. He low-key looks like if Caine wanted a to wear a very slight Sonic themed outfit.
Idk, I guess I just subconsciously wanted Caine and Abel to be twins. (Darn it ninja turtles you have invaded my brain even now!!).
Anyways. That's just my take, hope you like!
Oh ma ga-
I was reading something before this and was so surprised cuz I did NOT expect this!!!!!
Genuine happiness, thank youuuuu✨✨✨
@sillyandquest It’s your boy!! I’ve been wanting to draw him for so long but I kept getting distracted… sorry. But he was really fun to draw! I’m probably gonna draw him again. Also side note, I ADORE the animal-tamer reference!
Lovin' it. Keep it up guys, you're stronger than you know, even if you don't feel that way.
Ta-da! It's Kaufmo two seconds away from engaging in fisticuffs
