Mighty’s the only one with a braincell in this group and you cannot convince me otherwise :>

your honor i need them to be fucked up together

Espio has so much untapped sonic potential

He is, arguably, the single most “normal” teenager in sonic canon vice via like his day to day problems and priorities.

Like even in the og archie comics where shit was notriously crazy all the time especially for Knuckles and his friends, Espio’s role was like. the Guy Whose Friends Are All Always Going Through Some Shit But He Is Basically Fine.

Like he’s not the one who finds a kid dead from LSD overdose. That’s the 6 year old bee’s problem. Espio just like. Gets the group text about it.

Like of the “main” 20+ sonic characters you can easily put Espio in the top 3 for edgy designs. And like Espio’s worst problems all come from being 16 and having brothers who are 18 and 6 respectively.

Like darkest canonical interpretations just come down to

-dead former mentor figure (think like. tails if sonic died, but like years later)

-child living through and suffering under realistic financial strain (sad. Really weird vibe for a sonic character tbh. Still not really that comparable to like. Shadow.)

And like. This is the same series where reality sometimes canonically gets thanos snapped and everyone’s lives get reset and genocides get forgotten. You can dig some fucked up experiences for like basically every sonic characters vice via Archie Comics being insane

And like. Im pretty sure this has only ever been played straight? Like of course he’s edgy he looks edgy. Isn’t Charmy annoying?

Idk i just think the fact Espio canonically knows like. Knuckles and Sonic and Shadow is like unexplored comedy gold. He’s like the shitty poser teen who BUYS the shadow the hedgehog posters to feel cool.

He and Vector talk and act like peers on the same page 99% of the time but Vector romantically pursues women unambiguous old enough to firmly see Espio as a child. That is so fucking funny. You’re 16 and your friday night is fucking ruined because your best bro is going out with some adult woman who treats you like you are 12 and a BABY so now you’re stuck babysitting YOUR baby brother ALONE, if not also your bro’s girl’s kid. Meanwhile the group chat is blowing up because all your COOL friends just broke into Eggman’s lab and are making really funny tiktoks without you

Enough

My team chaotix week collection!they may not be super complimentary to each other but I really like what I was able to make! Which one was your favourite?

Might add some of these to my redbubble, if you guys would be interested hehe

Rare Sonic post anyway I love Mighty (so does Knuckles)

on my hands and knees begging for kit’s redemption/healing arc to take longer than surge’s. it has to and it feels like we might already be going down that path what with surge actually making an effort to be heroic and kit doing whatever the hell he’s doing

i think in order for kit to even start in his redemption/healing, he has to overall make the choice for himself. he can agree all he wants when surge says that they should try genuinely becoming heroes, but thats him still following his programming. it can be a starting line, but overall he needs to come to the decision that he wants to be his own person, someone separate from surge. he needs to learn how to do his own thing and make his own choices without surge being there. he needs to learn to think for himself and part of that is him deciding what he wants to do with his own life

and because i’m a big fan of kit being tails’s number one hater, i don’t think he needs to learn to like tails in order to be redeemed, the same way surge doesn’t need to like sonic. if anything, i think they’d need to learn to pay no mind to them so surge and kit can start to build their own identity. maybe tails and kit become friends or just two people able to exist in the same room together with no issues, who knows. however, i do think kit gets one (1) attempt at tails’s life. as a treat

will tails probably end up playing a huge roll in kit’s redemption arc in through helping him learn to become his own person at all that? most likely yeah. but a bitch can dream……

anyway yeah just another surge and kit rambling. it will happen again

just saw another fic that completely misunderstood elementary schoolers. going to make a post as soon as my shift is done

Seeing Knight Silver, he does have some Shadow traits.

Yeah, funny enough the apple doesn't fall far from the tree
