New Sketch Dump! This Time It Features Sonic Wachowski & Friends, And Characters From Rise Of The TMNT!

New Sketch Dump!✨ This time it features Sonic Wachowski & Friends, and characters from Rise of the TMNT! (Especially Leo, hehe 😅)

I drew some of these months ago, others are more recent (and you've seen some of them here), and there's just one I drew last year, that's why there are some differences.

Which one do you like the most? This time you'll have to choose one from the Sonic & Friends half, and one from the Rise of the TMNT half. Personally, my favorites are the fifth and tenth slide 😁 Remember that the most voted ones will be colored! 🎨

Analyzing Sonic's love language + Sonamy, pt. 1

Sonamy is probably one of the most conflicted ships I've seen in the fandom. Which I find funny, because it's quite clearly the ship that the Sonic Team favors the most and gives the most content for, at least when it comes to Sonic himself. But anyway, I've seen a lot of people claim that Sonic "clearly" doesn't like Amy back because of how uncomfortable he looks whenever she showers him with affection. (And yes, I know the more recent media has given her a ton of maturity regarding that, which I appreciate.) But from my observations, that's just not the case.

Why? It boils down to each of the characters' love languages.

And Sonic's love language is quite clearly NOT physical affection. And that doesn't just manifest with Amy; it manifests with EVERYONE that tries to show him more touchy-feely affection, including people we know for a fact he loves to death. Like Tails.

Sonic himself doesn't initiate hugs very often, so when Tails got hurt in the Sonic Boom episode "The Sidekick" and Sonic was trying to figure out some way to protect him and express how much he'd been worried, he does awkwardly hug his little brother. Look at Tails' reaction.

He's probably shocked right now. He would know better than anyone else that Sonic doesn't normally do that.

I don't think Sonic minds hugs, but he actually isn't a big fan of them in general. In the episode "Do Not Disturb," when Sonic and Tails ended up driving each other nuts with their personal lifestyles, Tails walks over and throws his arms around Sonic after they apologize and reconcile. This time, look at Sonic's reaction.

His stance and expression make it pretty clear he was not expecting it, and after a couple seconds he says "Kay, too long, gettin' weird," and gently pulls away. But he's still kinda smiling, so it's clear he's not mad, just slightly uncomfortable at the touch.

While we know there's many different variations of Sonic's character throughout the franchise, this trait is pretty consistent. Something very similar to this situation happens in the second live action movie, when Sonic tells Tails that they're pals, and Tails hugs him. Once again, look at Sonic's response.

He's startled and pretty quickly picks Tails up and puts him back, but he's smiling amidst it. Same as before; enjoying the emotion, but not necessarily comfortable with the means of affection.

Yeah, yeah, at the end of the movie after he comes back from being Super, Maddie and Tom both come running and each individually hug him. Sonic doesn't pull away that time, and I think he's more okay with it that time, since barely five minutes before they thought they were going to die together. He just kinda smiles a little and closes his eyes when they hug him.

(on a side note those screenshots give me such happiness 🥹 this family >>>)

I'm gonna leave it at that for this post, but yeah, this is part 1. Mostly because I can't add many more images, and I had too many more to share. Part 2, which I'll post as quickly as possible, will move on to Sonic X and apply these things to Sonamy. 😁💞

See, it looks normal, and then you get to that last part.

thoughts to live by

neither “that’s not canon” nor “fuck canon we made this all up” but a secret third thing (canon shouldn’t be taken as gospel but is useful as a reference point for building upon and recontextualizing characters and details. if you worship the source material as unchangeable then fandom in general probably isn’t for you. if you have complete disdain for the source material you would probably enjoy yourself more in a different fandom)

The music they had made be burst out laughing before they even changed a single frame. This is the perfect shenanigan music, I'm using this for everything.

pov : tom and maddie left the kids alone in the car for two minutes

"Perception Check" -- Tom Cardy Lyrics:

On the horizon of this forest path, you see a group of dark cloaked figures slowly trudging towards you. What do you do? My half-orc barbarian braces her greathammer and- that's a one Critical fail. Steve, what do you do? Well, I believe in anticipation, my rogue would try and hide behind a tree- okay, I rolled a one That's another critical fail. Tom, what does your human bard do? Active Perception Check ...That's a natural 20 Let's fucking go

I feel it in my fingers I feel it in my toes These muthafuckas mean to harm us And they got to go So come on, get 'em now! You picked the wrong day to fuck around with my Tight crew There's no escaping it I can perceive you Here's what we're gonna do Me and ma boys gonna mess you up

I rolled a one I rolled a one

Fuck My boys are otherwise engaged So I'm gonna bring it all myself

Hey, I forgot, you're supposed to tell me what I see, right? Yes, thank you. Let's just slow it all down a bit. So, you notice that one of the hooded figures is a little shorter- I cast Vicious Mockery, nat 20, let's go

You're a short muthafucka And nobody likes you SHORT! Everybody says "Look how fucking short that guy is" And that stops you from forming meaningful relationships When you were born, everybody thought that you were just a head But then the doctor said "Wait, this stupid muthafuckin' tiny short ass baby got a tiny little itty bitty body and I hate it"

Your attack lands and absolutely shatters the mind of the cloaked figure. Perception check, please Nat 20, let's go! You perceive the figure was so short because it was a CHILD It's always a kid Specifically the child you've been looking for for the last 15 days game time and 5 days of our actual lives Okay, I'm sorry, I didn't know, I'll be better. His body's just lying there, right? Right? Yes...? Don't-

Loot that body Gotta loot that body now Loot that body! Gotta loot that muthafucka! Play my flute when I loot that dead kid's body Bitch

original version here:

Suffice to say: -Shadow and Tails likely took Maria dice shopping. -Tails is no longer allowed to play a bard again. -Shadow's going to have Silver DM next time.
