List of random Headcanons/Ideas!

Post-Sonic Frontiers edition!

Starting off with Sonic:

After Sonic Frontiers I don’t think much will change for Sonic. He’s still gonna live life free as the wind, stop Eggman’s plans, and enjoy a nice chilidog after a hard days work.

I like to think Sonic will take over guarding the Master Emerald while Knuckles is out adventuring and treasure hunting. He doesn’t stay on the island 24/7, but at the end of the day he always makes sure he’s on Angel Island.

Sonic does, in fact, become the ultimate chao dad while staying on Angel Island.

He keeps in contact with his traveling friends through letters. Amy consistently writes weekly, Tails writes every other week, and Knuckles is completely inconsistent with his letters.

Sonic and Rouge have a bit of a truce going on so she won’t steal the Master Emerald. All she asks in return is to be allowed to hold onto the chaos emerald until Sonic needs them.

Sonic finds himself spending more time with his other friends, which he enjoys.

When he finds out Eggman restored Sage he starts relentlessly teasing him about being a dad. Eggman once retorted by mentioning Sonics lack of a father. Sonic no longer teases Eggman about being a dad.

Moving onto Tails:

As soon as he can, Tails sets off on his journey/adventure. At first he is very nervous, and is not used to not having someone to fall back on.

Tails ends up having his own enemy, one that isn’t Eggman. I like to think it would be a villain that uses magic, like Witch Cart. Why a magic villain? Well it would provide a nice contrast in their dynamic, technology vs magic, similar to Eggman and Sonic’s dynamic, Technology vs Nature- jk I just want an excuse for Tails to learn magic.

The first time Tails see’s himself on a newspaper with the header “Sonics sidekick turned hero?!” He immediately buys one and sends it to Sonic.

Tails took the Tornado in the divorce-

On one singular occasion Tails has to go to his home island to continue to fight his villain. He definitely got funny looks, but he didn’t let them get to him. He would later write a very long letter to Sonic about the experience.

Tails doesn’t realize how much he’s grown during his adventure until he meets back up with everyone after a few years have passed. Having to look down to see Sonic was a jarring experience.

There was an instance during one of his adventures where he crossed paths with Knuckles. They got brunch and chatted a bit. Knuckles offered to help Tails with his adventure but Tails declined the offer.

Give Tails a solo game Sega please I beg of you-

Knock knock its Knuckles:

Knuckles was very hesitant to leave Angel Island and the Master Emerald in Sonics hands at first. Sonic had to practically throw him off the island for him to get going.

One of the first souvenirs Knuckles needs to get on his travels is his hat. I don’t make the rules it just be like that.

Knuckles is pretty well know across the world thanks to his role as leader of the Resistance back in Sonic Forces. It’s always a fun surprise when he comes across an old rookie.

Knuckles doesn’t start off treasure hunting right away, he actually starts off as a simple traveler searching for and explore ancient ruins. It’s the maps and clues he finds in the ruins that leads him down the path of a treasure hunter.

Maybe Knuckles can meet/reunite with Mighty and Ray 👉👈

With Knuckles spending most of his time traveling in nature he doesn’t get to send letters to Sonic as consistently as he’d like, but when he does he makes sure to make the letter as details as he can.

Anytime he hears news of Eggman attacking he’ll check it out, just to make sure the Master Emerald isn’t involved.

Last but not least, Amy Rose!

Amy, all packed up with Sticks and Cream, head out on their road trip around the world. Their goal, to spread their love with the world!

With Amy’s trip all planned out she’s able to consistently write to Sonic weekly to tell him all about her doings.

Amy does a lot during her trip, organizing fundraisers, stopping some troublemakers, and doing tarot card readings (Give us Sonic themed tarot cards Sega please-)

She would definitely start small operations where she cooks big meals and anyone is welcome to come by to eat.

I feel like Amy would, similarly to Knuckles, be pretty well known worldwide because of her role in the resistance.

I think out of everyone she could come across in her travels, she’d end up meeting up with Shadow. Since the Twitter Takeovers are canon to me and you can’t tell me otherwise, I think he would join her little road-trip and bring up the whole “cat orphanage for all the stray cats of the world” idea. She would absolutely love the idea.

Yes Amy would most definitely play matchmaker a few times while on her road trip. She’ll say she only did it two or three times; Sticks, Cream, and Shadow will say she’s done it at least thirty times.

Congratulations on finishing Arc 1! I've been following this comic since pretty much the beginning (I remember when everyone thought Alinua was a cat girl because of how her ears looked under her hood). This comic has come a long way since then, and it's been a pleasure and inspiration to watch your journey!

So with Arc 1 done, how do you feel? Any thoughts about the early days of the comic, or some lessons you've learned? What are you most looking forward to in Arc 2?

(Side note- thank you for Erin. My brain chews on him regularly and I gave a presentation on him in speech class. He brings me immense joy)

Whoof! I feel like it's slowly sinking in, tbh. I'm pretty bad at appreciating my own accomplishments - I have a tendency to Fire And Forget to avoid getting bogged down by "oh I'd have done this better now" or "eek I don't like how I did that" or "oh no this aged badly" or "what if I just redid it but Better this time" - but I've gotten better at accepting all those things as Not The End Of The World and they do not make me a Bad Artist or Bad Person, and as a result, I'm able to look back and just be happy about this one. It's an odd feeling.

At some point in the last several chapters I decided the ending of Arc 1 needed to feel like a conclusion. Not a full series finale, but a season finale. Character arcs needed to hit points of resolution; setup needed to pay off; cool moves needed to get some airtime. It's not in my nature to end stories, but as I worked on this arc I got comfy with the idea that an ending wasn't mechanically locking in the last part of a story and saying Nothing Past This Point, it was resolving the major elements of the story that cried out for completeness. Stories can have many endings before they're actually done, and in order for Arc 1 to feel like a complete thing, I knew it needed to bring those dangling plot threads home.

The fun thing about resolving chunks of the plot is those resolutions open the door for entirely new problems, and I'm excited to play with those! Part of why I wanted to make sure I had the rest of the year off was so I could take my time and just sit in the new status quo, because freeform creative idea-spinning is my favorite part of the writing process, and it's a rare treat for me to have such a wide-open swath of possibility ahead of me.

I'm so serious about being kind above all else. it has genuinely changed the way I interact with the world on a fundamental level and has made me so so much happier.

Hi! I'm a big fan of your work. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

 I'm an artist who's been working on a story with a close writer friend of mine since the pandemic. Together we've outlined a webcomic that we're both very excited and passionate about, and it's been a great experience. Late last year we started actually making the comic itself, and a little less than a year later we're 37 pages in. 

I wanted to ask you how you're able to somehow push out three high-quality pages every week? I work full time, and most days I'm too drained when I get home to immediately start working on the comic. Plus all the other stuff I have to take care of to be a functional adult. I'm not even that slow of an artist, but it just doesn't feel like there's enough hours in the day. At my current rate, I get about one page done per week. I'm 24 now, I don't want to be in my 50s still working on this story. Do you have any advice for increasing your output as an artist without completely overwhelming yourself?

Sorry for the wordy question. There's a reason I'm the artist and not the writer.

Oof, that's a tough one!

I mean, to start with, a fundamental difference in our schedules is I don't work full time. Everything I do for a living is very self-scheduled, and I can work far in advance to meet the deadlines I set and take entire days or even weeks off when I need them. Back when I was in college, dealing with outside schedule requirements, I definitely wouldn't have been able to keep up everything I do now.

That said, there are still methods to streamline and speed up the artistic process. I don't know the details of your methods, but I'd recommend sketching and storyboarding larger numbers of pages at a time and finalizing them at a more leisurely pace, rather than taking one page of comic at a time from a total blank to a finalized, polished version. The storyboard can be very basic; many of mine are little more than color-coded scribbles showing the characters and text boxes showing their dialogue. It's just enough to be readable to me so I can go in and edit it for pacing and timing, but it looks like absolute chickenscratch to anyone else. On the production side, that makes it much more feasible for me to work on multiple pages at a time, since I don't need to finish polishing one page before I can start boarding another.

This method can be expanded into a bit of a factory production line, allowing for a two-pronged approach of progress - one for finalizing older pages, the other farther along for storyboarding new ones. And once you have multiple pages done at a time, you can schedule them well in advance, which takes a lot of deadline pressure off and can make it less mentally daunting to work on. This also diversifies the space of things you can work on, depending on your headspace and energy levels - which is a useful option to have when you're wiped from outside responsibilities.

Please help me. I have nothing else.

there is something horrifically grim to it, but illustrations for gaza and palestinians tend to catch more mass attention that actual photos of people. this made me feel incredibly helpless for a long while, seeing both how people would rather look at a neat drawing of red black green and white than look a human in the eyes, and how online platforms would rather push a viral drawing while suppressing those begging for help at the same time.

a way to cope with this feeling has been taking advantage of it to directly guide people to helping palestinians.

if art gets better traction, then there’s an incredible amount of good that can be done by creating art that immediately links to fundraisers. creating art of the many images of those who are asking for help.

within hours of posting my drawing, there has been jumps in the thousands for bashar from gaza’s fundraiser. it’s a small effort in the grand scheme of things. it’s not a fix it. but it’s something good. please take care of each other and do what you can. i think this could help a lot of people if a lot of people did it.

here is bashar. i’ve drawn him, spoken to him, and known him now for a few months. any shares help, any art helps. draw who you see, draw what you see. thanks all
