Welcome!

This is @totaleclipse573! And here is an in-character ask blog for an AU of mine, the Boom!Brothers AU. If you've been to my main blog before, you've probably seen it around, so…this is where you can ask the characters of that universe anything you'd like! There are some things I'd like to mention though...

NO NSFW/18+ ASKS WHATSOEVER

You can still ask any of the characters from the original sonic boom stuff (like Team Sonic + Eggman,) but the main focuses of this are Shadow and Eclipse, of course.

The "boom!brothers au" tag on my main blog has other stuff for the au, like art! (Even if few 😭)

Any “plot” is established through the asks! Go crazy with that

Onto the characters! (A section in progress, don’t mind that!)

SHADOW AND ECLIPSE

Grumpy cave man and his reckless and impulsive teenage brother. What could go wrong. Eclipse was dropped off with Shadow by his father one day, and he never returned, despite saying he would. Since then Shadow has grown rather accustomed to his annoying presence…no one will ever know. (Also Eclipse has a chip in his brain but this is a topic he finds irrelevant. And so shall we!)

TEAM SONIC

Yeah basically just. Team Sonic (Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy and Sticks!)

EGGMAN

He is the Eggman?? That’s what he is?? Plus his robos!

ROUGE

A thief known islands over, having arrived at this one in search of a great treasure…turns out it was just a stuffed bear, but hey, she sticks around. Committing crimes.

OMEGA

Rebellious ex-eggman robot, often accompanying Rouge while on his quest to prove his superiority over all other robots

DR STARLINE

Ex-member of the whatever it is Eggman has going on. He continuously cheats death, usually no one knows WHERE he is until he just sort of. Shows up. To cause problems. He is Shadow’s GREATEST AND MOST WORTHY RIVAL, who WILL win over Eggman’s attention! At least, all this is according to him.

INFINITE

A quick-tempered jackal who’s childhood past with Shadow has formed a long, long grudge against him. He lives a fairly normal life, if not enacting his middle school bully arc. Or carrying around tiny platypuses.

TIKAL

Ghosty girl from an ancient volcanic echidna tribe! She likes friends and french fries.

“METAL”

An accidentally de-roboticized Metal Sonic, who claims to be the one and only true Sonic. He’s called Metal, though, to distinguish him from the very clear fake that happens to look a lot like him. If that’s what it takes to be correctly acknowledged, fine, he’ll go by the nickname.

ANTI-BYGONE

Thanks to an eggman portal and “Scourge quest,” almost everyone has an anti counterpart in another dimension! Really only the green Sonic changed his name though…at least that Eclipse and Metal know of.

————————————————————————

And that’s all of them for now! Have fun guys!

Any news? Also, anyone wants some fungus-safe sherbet-

no wait, hedgehogs can’t have citrus

Anyone wants some shredded meat?

"No, we still haven't gotten anywhere and-"

"GIVE THAT TO ME!!" Eclipse interrupted Metal, tearing into the meat he was given. "Finally, something good!"

"So much for focus..."

[boombrothersasks]

any cool bugs in the new dimension?

"We are NOT FOCUSED ON THAT RIGHT NOW," Eclipse said. "And anyway that's Shadow's stupid thing! The only bugs I care about are the ones I can eat."

[boombrothersasks]

Hey, if that's some kind of "opposite" dimension, maybe Robotnik sr actually has a doctorate! A competent adult! At last!

"There is no universe where that Egg-head is competent." Sonic chuckled at the idea.

[boombrothersasks]

Loathe as any would be to admit it, dear star, but I believe Metal has more battle experience, so I suggest we stick to his plans

"No! I'm in charge!"

"...I haven't reached a moment in which I believe it would be best to hand over leadership. AND I NEVER WILL!"

[boombrothersasks]

Eclipse! Status update my prince! How's the conquering of the new universe going?

"There seems to have been a miiiinor issue!" Eclipse, running off with Sonic and Metal, loudly exclaimed. "They still don't want to bow to my will and we are now on the run from this universe's rogue civilians! Why can't they just understand that resistance is futile?!"

"I don't think you're in any position to be saying that right now..."

"Shut up, Metal."

[boombrothersasks]

Hey Shadow, is it true you stole Sonic's door

“…And so what if I did? It’s Sonic, he probably deserved it.”

[boombrothersasks]

I heard there's a stone called the Warp Topaz, which can aid in dimensional travel...

Anyone has a geologist on hand?

”Warp topaz…? The name sounds familiar…but I’ve never heard of it,” Shadow concluded after some brief thinking. “If it can aid in getting me to this other dimension, I’ll just have to find it. And if anyone attempts to get in my way or interfere with anything MORE, this time I’m really leaving.”

[boombrothersasks]

Hey Shadow, there's a movie about you coming out in a couple days. How do you feel about that?

"I feel like its about time. Yet I feel...watched. Who is obtaining this footage? Why are they obtaining this footage? What do I even do with this information??"

[boombrothersasks]

Hey Scourge! What's your favorite thing to do in the snow?

"I just get a bunch, turn it into balls and THROW 'EM AT PEOPLE!! I'm basically undefeated and-QUIT DISTRACTING ME I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!!"

"Everyone is already gone anyway." The Knuckles counterpart pointed out the lack of any blue hedgehogs, or weird lizard things.

"WHAT DO YA MEAN-"

...

"Crap. Well now we gotta find 'em I mean. We did say fight the fake. And now he and the rest of those creeps are running around on MY ISLAND!!"

[boombrothersasks]

*GASP* WE'VE BEEN STUCK IN A TEMPORARAL ANOMALY!!! QUICK, HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN???

*ahem* Anyway. Scourge! Do you celebrate Christmas in your world? Do you have anyone you're going to give presents to?

"Temporal...Christmas?? What kinda nonsense are ya talking about? I'm not giving anything to anybody!"

"Some mortal holiday where a guy gets to break into your house and leave stuff. The first one I experienced was....eventful. I don't fully understand it either," Eclipse interrupted. "BUT! My gift to myself this time will be your dimension! So could we possibly get back to that? I was threatening all of you."

"And I was about to blow these fakes to bits, no one cares what you have to say."

The darkling huffed, before speaking to himself.

"You'll be the first in my personal pit of hatred when I rule this place..."

[boombrothersasks]

Don't shoot the messenger! Don't shoot the messenger!

"If only I had the time..."

"How do I get to this 'lothesome lookalike dimension' you're talking about?"

[boombrothersasks]

*pokes head in the cave*

Apologies for the intrusion, Shadow, but the loathsome lookalike trio (Sonic, Eclipse, Metal) somehow wound themselves into some whole loathsome lookalike dimension, and I don't feel up to filing grievous wounds certificates..

Mind checking on them? Thanks, you're the best!

"...."

"What."

[boombrothersasks]

Hmmmmm... Hmmmmmm... Hey Tails, who do you think could be turned into a toddler next?

.

.

We had Sonic, Shadow, Eclipse... It really seems like everybody turns into a baby these days...

.

.

By the way, who do you think should never be babyfied around here?

"No one. And I repeat. NO ONE. Should be turned into a toddler. Anymore. That is no longer an option. You have lost your babyfication privileges forever. Every single one of you. We are NOT doing this again!! I'LL DESTROY THE MACHINE IF I HAVE TO. HOW IS THIS EVEN HAPPENING ANYMORE. LEAVE THE BABIES BE, I BEG OF YOU."

He sighed.

"...Besides, everyone's been gone recently. I still can't find Sonic, and now Eclipse is missing too. Kind of have to wonder how Shadow's taking it..."

"Knowing him and Eclipse, he's probably loving all the quiet time."

[boombrothersasks]

Just caught up... So Scourge, since we're on your world now, is there any Amy wanting to crush you with her hammer? How would she feel about two hedgehogs that look a lot like you but blue?

"My world...? I mean, yeah, ya could say this world does belong to me. Good on you for acknowledging that, I guess. But don't summon her. She's the bossiest and craziest there ever was, I'm telling ya..."

"...Hold on. TWO BLUE FAKES?!?! WHAT D'YOU MEAN TWO?!" Scourge began shouting again.

"We're having the same problem on that one man." Sonic cut in, still sounding deadpan.

"You know where this guy is?"

"That's for me to know, and you to get irrationally angry over for some reason."

"CAN WE JUST BLOW HIM UP ALREADY!?' Someone who looked weirdly like the Knuckles Sonic knew shouted within the group of people surrounding him. "He talks too much. Getting on my nerves. He's worse than Scourge."

"Excuse-"

"Let's just crush. EVERYONE. For good measure!!"

"She's here. That's great. See what ya did?" Scourge grumbled.

"SCOURGE THE HEDGEHOG, RULER OF THIS DIMENSION, I'VE COME TO FIND AND TO CHALLENGE YOU-"

All eyes were on him and Metal after they stood. Including Sonic's.

"Eclipse when I tell you this was the worst possible time..." the blue hedgehog muttered.

"ITS A LIZARD THINGGGGGG," the Amy counterpart already had her hammer at the ready. "KILL IT."

"Is that any way to treat your new ruler of worlds and dimensions beyond all comprehension?"

[boombrothersasks]

Think these guys will listen to diplomacy, my princes? Plan B is a good old "pummel 'em"

"Yeah no we're probably going to have to get 'em if Sonic doesn't first."

"Or the other guy. I can dream."

[boombrothersasks]

LOOK OUT MY PRINCE!!! THERE'S EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY TONIGHT!!!

After crossing through the portal along with the others, Eclipse looked back.

"Explosions in the sky...? What's that supposed to-"

*BOOM. POW. VARIOUS EXPLOSION NOISES.*

Eclipse jumped at the sound, cowering behind Sonic. He quickly stopped this, though, not wanting to look like a fool in front of anyone.

"Oh yeahh...forgot that was today."

"...Forgot what was today?" Eclipse turned to Sonic. Clearly, he was trying his hardest to keep his composure. Sonic could tell, but decided not to bring it up.

"Some celebration of when the island became...the island. But with people on it and stuff. We like to blow things up when the day comes, looks like this other dimension does too."

"Why...?"

A short pause.

"Its...uh...because its fun? They're called fireworks."

"They look more like explosives to me," Metal cut in, looking up at the sky. "Or maybe I just don't know what a firework looks like, I dunno."

"Would explain how messed up this place looks...jeez."

Sonic had been right on that one. It looked nearly the same as the hedgehog village they knew. Would have been a mirror image, in fact, if not for everything looking very desolate, yet wrecked.

"Well whatever it is, I don't like it," Eclipse huffed. "NOT THAT IM SCARED OF IT...its just annoying."

"Really? Thought you of all people would love an excuse just to blow things up on purpose. And legally." Sonic shot him a look.

"Don't question me, we have work to do! If I'm going to govern this island, I'll need to confront its ruler first."

"What about Scourge Quest...?"

"We'll get to that too, Metal, but UNTIL THEN-! ...Where's Sonic."

Whilst looking around, both Eclipse and Metal could hear something in the distance...it sounded like multiple people, what were they saying...?

Following the sounds, the two hid in rather conveniently placed bushes to be able to safely watch what they were seeing. A group of people, all standing around, while only one stood higher than the rest atop a box. The best way to describe him was...Sonic...but green? How many more Sonic's could there possibly be?

"FIGHT THE FAKE!!"

"I didn't even WANT a fight, I was LITERALLY just passing through." Sonic complained, though now trapped in a circle of people. The green Sonic jumped down.

"Too bad, knockoff. Case ya couldn't tell yet, this is my island. Which means you gotta get out."

So he's the ruler...! Eclipse thought to himself. And here I thought this would be somewhat difficult. Pfft.

"That's what I was trying to do. Do you seriously do this to any guy who comes by with the same quill-cut as you?? Look a little closer. Great example : you have a stupid jacket, I don't, see the difference? Kind of an embarrassing look for you, won't lie-"

"SHUT UP!! You interrupted our exploding of things! AND you called my jacket stupid! Now you gotta pay TIMES THREE!!"

"I hope they burn him."

"Metal."
