Ideas For A SatBK Remaster (if It Ever Happens):

The more I think about it, the more subtle references to Arthurian legend are actually IN SatBK. One of the SMALLEST references is during Gawain's defeat, when he tries to behead himself. This is likely a reference to Gawain and the Green Knight. The Green Knight offers to get hit with a VERY nice axe, but in return, whatever blow was dealt to him will be returned the next year (so, if Gawain and lightly tapped him on the arm, Gawain would get a light tap on the arm in response). Gawain beheads the Green Knight, hoping it'll kill him, but the Green Knight just says that he'll see Gawain next year, picks up his head, and walks out.

Next year comes, and the Green Knight disguises himself, with Gawain proving himself as strong-willed, noble, and honest to the disguised Green Knight. This ends up working in Gawain’s favor, since instead of getting beheaded, he only gets a small tap on the neck from the axe. Just like where Galatine was positioned in the cutscene before Sonic took it away.

Gotta love SatBK's references.

Headcanon: Team Dark's rooms are decorated to their own personal tastes/interests.

Shadow's room is dark, pretty sparse but not barren. On the walls there's star charts, and a few shelves cluttered with nick-knacks from his various missions. Books strewn about, ranging from fantasy to anatomy, to a pile of journals he writes in daily. On the ceiling, Rouge placed some glow in the dark stars, in patterns of his favorite constellations. His bed is pretty minimal as well, and the one thing on his nightstand is a framed picture of Maria and Gerald. Rouge's room is the opposite. The walls are deep pinks and purples, her bedspread is full of pillows and blankets, and jewels she's stolen decorate the walls. Rugs overlap on the floor, and her wardrobe is on a clothing rack, showcasing glitzy and glamours outfits. While Shadow's room is more minimal, Rouge's is the epitome opulence.

Omega's "room" is minimal. He simply enters, and just rests/recharges. There's only one thing on the wall, a picture of Eggman that he occasionally uses for target practice. Omega has little/no use for a bedroom, instead only using it as a place to go when he needs a recharge every so often.

5 (possibly) underrated things I always remember about Sonic Boom:

1. Amy is the only member of Team Sonic that can cook, and when everyone else tried, it was purple-ish slop

2. Meh Burgers are vegan, and are made of shredded newspaper and library paste. Sonic is also the only one paying full price.

3. Orbit and Cubot willingly eat marshmallows, despite knowing that it’ll mess with their circuitry

4. Sonic canonically owns glasses, but never wears them (and whether they’re real or fake is up to interpretation).

5. Eggman wasn’t a doctor, and the entirety of Hedgehog Village had a musical number to spread the word.

New REBLOG Game

keanu reeves is shadow??

BIG, THANK YOU FOR SAYING IT

Big the Cat Therapist

Doodle is a result of a convo I had with a friend btw. We both headcanon that Big always knows what to say and that’s why Shadow likes him 😌.

“You don’t have to be The Ultimate Lifeform all the time. Sometimes you can just be Shadow”

I LOVE the parallels between Gerald and Eggman in Sonic 3. ESPECIALLY with how they treat Shadow/Stone (their respective henchman/helper).

Eggman's BLATANTLY honest with Stone, and certainly blunt, but he actually DOES care about him. In Sonic 1, he looks down on Stone, calling him a sycophant and stupid ("Way to go, you got that one"). In Sonic 2, he doesn't seem to hold Stone in a higher regard, saying that he and Knuckles should ditch him, and leave him at the Mean Bean. While Stone's completely loyal to him, and it's clear that he cares about Eggman, it's only in Sonic 3 when Eggman actually realizes that Stone IS the only person who ever cared for him.

Meanwhile, Gerald's manipulative. He seems to talk down to Shadow, primarily ordering him around and only bothering to keep him out of harms way during the London heist, BEFORE he has access to the Eclipse Canon. He actively preys on Shadow's grief, telling him that he needs to remember that Maria was taken from them, and that humanity deserves to be destroyed. Gerald doesn't even bother with correcting Eggman when he calls Shadow a "Thermonuclear gerbil". And when Gerald sees that Shadow is now working with Sonic, he says "I see you chosen betrayal. And you were once so useful to me."

Gerald was (likely) only using Shadow as a tool, something he could discard when it no longer had a purpose. But Eggman WANTED to keep Stone around. He IS the reason that Eggman tried to save the world. To Eggman, Stone was MORE than a henchman and sychophant. He was a sychofriend.

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE IN THIS POST!

the suffering never ends

"Oh my dear Lancelot,..."

Sonic and the Black Knight is still SUCH a strange concept, and it STILL works. Like, "Oh yeah, King Arthur was corrupted by the power of immortality, became a tyrant king, the Knights of the Round Table are still bound by their honor to serve him, they're hunting Merlin's granddaughter, Sonic is summoned to the world, slays dragons, saves Percival and Gawain's lives, kills King Arthur, and saves the ENTIRE kingdom in less than a week and becomes the new king."

And the main gimmick of the game is just 'Oh yeah, Sonic uses a sword'. This game is INCREDIBLE
