Absolutely captivated by biker Stone rn
Hey remember when US and Russia was all like “We’re the best!!! We’ve won the space race!!!!” But India sent a kick-ass space probe to Mars and the whole mission was fuel efficient, costed less and a roaring success in the first try and then they were like “…..wait no that can’t be true” and still have the audacity to call us “underdeveloped” or only view us as a ‘third world country’? :)
For anyone who needs more info, the probe was called Mangalyaan (which literally means space probe vehicle) or Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) and you can also get more information here and here
Stone being just as competent as Robotnik is so important to me. He took over the Mean Bean by himself, he's a badass on a motorcycle, he singlehandedly rescued Robotnik in the aftermath of sonic 2, he took down a bunch of badniks in a few seconds. Stone could easily be his own boss and do his own thing, or demand that Robotnik treat him more as an equal rather than a subordinate but he doesn't. He's completely fine with being a henchman and even takes pride in it. I think it just emphasizes how much he loves Robotnik. He doesn't need to stay with him because its the closest he'll get to power, he's skilled enough on his own to do villain stuff if he wanted, he needs to stay because he loves him and Robotnik needs him. this is all stuff we already knew but i think it'd be less powerful if Stone was the typical dumb henchman stereotype. he is just as deserving of power as Robotnik is but he chooses to take a step back, to let him have the spotlight, to let him feel safer in a position of power, to just help Robotnik achieve his goals and his dreams. im never getting over these two am i?
