Woah, Wait- They Did WHAT?!

Woah, wait- they did WHAT?!

For real?! That's odd! Are they changing things, planning on changing things, or is something else entirely going on?

I think I smell either a conspiracy or a change to the lore! Not sure which would be better...then again, Sonic does sound older...I thought it was because he finally hit puberty, but maybe they've aged him up? He'd still be too young for this stuff even if they made him 20 tbh...

Gah! I don't know! What's even happening anymore?!

Hey, has it ever clicked for anyone that Sonic is literally a child? I know some people usually go "teenagers aren't kids, they're basicly younger grown-ups!" But like, that's absolutly not true? Teenagers ARE kids! They're older, they're on the road of BECOMING adults, but they AREN'T!

The point being, I can't even IMAGINE what kind of messed up trauma riddled mind Sonic has at this point. Just- the childhood trauma I've had has been enough to eff me up real bad, imagine what all the stuff SONIC has been through has done to him!

And I know; I know that Japan has a thing with idolizing children that behave maturely and/or takes on a bunch of responsibility, but still! He's been 15 years old for, what, 20 years? And he's been through hell and back and fought several gods and always been the one to stand strong and never give up! Imagine the mental and emotional toll!

As a kid I always thought "wow! Sonic is so cool and mature!" And now as a 21 year old I just get an intense parental need to just- get him therapy and protect him from the world. It's kinda scary how many emotions and instincts media can trigger, actually!

And I know that it'd be pointless to protect him from a lore standpoint; he's more powerful than some human nobody ever would be, but I just-

He's 15 YEARS OLD you guys!

A kid!

And that realisation hit me like a freight train a couple of months ago, and it re-hit me after playing Sonic Frontiers!

I've done (almost) nothing but play Sonic Frontiers since it came out. It's SO GOOD! I beat it today, and I'm both happy I had the experience and sad that it's over. Sure, I can (and will) replay it, but still! I have difficulties playing games for long periods of time, as I tend to get bored by even my favourite games after a while. But not this one! Think its actually gotta be my favourite game!

Ok, so I had a near-death experience at 4 AM this morning, (I nearly choked to death, -100/10 would not recommend,) and I nearly choked again just an hour or so ago? So yeah, I'm not gonna promise anything unless I'm SURE I'll survive.

Before anyone asks: I've been to the semi-emergency ward already, recieved medicine, and I'm taking said medicine. I just made the dumbass mistake of trying to hack up this goddamned mucus too soon.

You know what? As soon as I'm no longer sick I'm gonna go on an ADVENTURE! Go outside, take some pictures, drink some tea, that kind of stuff!

tw choking tw sickness shade mutters nonsense TW: mucus I think it's best to trigger-tag just in case. Better too careful than too recless with people you don't know. It's not fun to have your airway blocked you guys Like 'No air in no air out' is really scary

Learning two languages at once without a teacher and nobody who speaks the language to talk to is an excellent idea.

Case in point, I know about 50+ words of mandarin chinese but I can't pronounce any of it and now I'm also learning french. ...But french is more similar to my second accent so that's not so bad.

While I'm still on my computer, here's another Transformers thing I drew! And it's Bumblebee again! And the context is a headcanon I've never once spoken about! And yes: it IS that Team Fortress 2 sniper meme! What of it? It works for that headcanon I've never once spoken about! AND it was fun!

transformers g1 g1 bumblebee Will I ever speak of the headcanon? Maybe... Mwehe! Lazily drawn rounded buildings that are rounded because of the brush go ∩∩∩ !!! I forgot to make the optics glow and I only realised it just now!!! Eh. Whatever. My mistake and my mistake will persist.
