Anyway, the latte scene happens right after the scene where Robotnik tells Stone he won’t miss him, and it just seems like they’re both compensating for the previous emotional disaster.

It’s also their last interaction, which is interesting bc the film could have ended with Robotnik being an ass to Stone, and easily segued into him cutting Stone out of his life as he descends into villainy. Instead it ends with Stone anticipating what would make Robotnik happy, and Robotnik violently appreciating it lmao

Robotnik’s intense stare at the end….you know this dude has never said sorry in his life.  This is his sorry.  "I screamed compliments in your face - do you understand??“

Do you ever get something in your eye and it gets watery?💧😭

I always wondered what happened to Stone! How he reacted to Robotnik’s disappearance? Meh, don’t know if I should make part two of it!🤷🏻‍♀️

Stone: What’s your blood type?

Robotnik: How would I know?

Stone: How would you not know?

Robotnik: Who am I? Karl Landsteiner, discoverer of blood types?

Stone: You don’t know your own blood type but you know who discovered them?

Stone: Why are you like this?

Robotnik: I used too much ‘no more tears’ shampoo back in 1980 and haven’t felt an emotion ever since.

Stone: What’s for lunch?

Robotnik: Food, usually.

Stone: No, I mean, what are you having?

Robotnik: An unwanted conversation.

Stone: Ivo doesn't have a life plan. He doesn't have a day plan. I once found a note he wrote to himself that said "put on pants".

Stone: Followed by a question mark.

Stone: Just get Ivo please.

Shadow: He locked himself in the bathroom.

Stone: Tell him I said something.

Shadow: Said what?

Stone: Anything factually inaccurate.

Robotnik: I'm sorry, the sky is blue because it's reflecting the color of the ocean?

Stone: Are you sure you’re getting enough sleep?

Robotnik: Sometimes I close my eyes when I sneeze.

So I could never picture Agent Stone as the cold, ruthless FBI / CIA type.

My headcanon is that before he began working for Robotnik, Stone was a barista. Like a really really good one, the kind you see making those super creative latte art patterns on instagram. Aban was just a laidback guy who enjoyed a chill, low stress lifestyle and so even though he’s really intelligent with a bachelor in engineering (minoring in mathematics) and the potential to land a really successful lucrative career in any field of his choosing, Stone decided on a simple craft instead, one which he has perfected and takes a lot of pride in.

Robotnik personally poached him from his job at some small specialty coffee shop (not Starbucks, Robotnik wouldn’t be caught dead in a Starbucks) because despite his impressive genius and undoubted ability to design and build a coffee machine that would steam perfect lattes every time, Ivo had better things to do with his time and it was simply more efficient to have someone else make it for him. So he’s on the road in his [self driving.. utility…. van/truck/thing?] and goes in to this local coffee joint where he meets Stone, and after making some snide offhand remarks regarding Stone’s lack of talent and belittling his intelligence, he is unexpectedly surprised when he receives the best damn latte of his life. It’s the closest he’s ever been in his life to being wrong (obviously NOT wrong though, he’s never wrong; perhaps just not entirely 100% accurately correct) and this shocking revelation piques his interest in Stone, so he comes back the next week, and the next, until eventually he’s a regular coming in daily (typically twice a day - first at 7:00 in the morning, then again in the late afternoon at 16:00, like clockwork - but on sleep deprived days it’s not unusual for him to stop in as many as seven times).

Through this working relationship Robotnik starts learning more about Stone, like his first name is Aban and how he actually isn’t totally stupid and has a degree and reads physics textbooks for fun on the weekends and has an annoyingly beautiful megawatt smile that he shouldn’t really be thinking about … meanwhile Stone is getting him to open up and actually make small talk (mostly about himself), and Aban is thrilled every time he receives one of those classic compliments-that-aren’t-really-compliments-but-are-compliments-by-Ivo’s-standards like “this isn’t totally disgusting” or “I suppose you are the least brainless person in this room … aside from me” and unlike his coworkers who only see an egotistical arrogant bastard Stone is genuinely awestruck by his brilliance and once he finds out what Robotnik does for work, because he’s such a people pleaser (*cough* and so hopelessly infatuated) Stone goes home and researches robotics so that he can keep up with Ivo’s conversation and the next time he comes in Ivo is delighted and Aban is proud just to make Nik smile.

This whole backstory thing only came to me literally just bc Stone is just too damn charming for his own good, like that amount of charisma and good customer relations can only come from a lifetime of working in the service & hospitality industry

Sonic Headcanons Based Solely on the movie:

Maddie's not straight. Bi at LEAST. Don't know why but she is.

If Robotnik is mentioned or talked about by ANYONE in the Sonic family, he's called Eggman, don't @ me on this

After Robotnik gets back, things are relatively normal

Robotnik tries to get Sonic several times and fails, but its no where near as intense or dangerous as the first time

Robotnik is not out for blood. He just wants to test somethings with Sonic's power. But he never actually explained what he wanted with Sonic, so they assume he wants him dead

Robotnik and Sonic argue like little kids ("Am not!" "Are to!")

Stone and Maddie meet up for coffee without Tom or Robotnik knowing

Sonic views Ivo and Stone as his weird uncles after a while

At one point, Robotnik has Sonic in his clutches. He tells Stone to let him escape.

They're all still enemies but Robotnik and Stone are invited to things like Thanksgiving and "its stupid to turn down an opportunity to spy on them, Stone, and Maddie makes excellent turkey"

They all know Robotnik won't hurt them but he threatens them anyway

Maddie picks on Tom for letting a minor into a bar and then proceeding to start a bar fight

Sonic and co try to get Robotnik and Stone together

Tom and Sonic tease Robotnik A LOT about his obvious feelings for Stone until he admits it (which he won't until he absolutely has to)

Maddie (who has the braincell of the sonic family) legitimately helps Stone figure things out

Robotnik does not legally exist and he uses it as an excuse not to do things ("you can't do that" "I Do Not Exist")

Robotnik has absolutely dragged Stone into one of his dance sessions

Sonic goes to school

Sometimes, Tom and Maddie can't pick Sonic up from school so you might just see this giant, egg-shaped robot thing pick Sonic up and take him home (or sometimes a guy in a suit who Sonic will address as 'Rock Man' when he gets in the shiny black car)

Ivo will deny that its him if asked but tbh everyone knows

Even though they should... nobody told the government that Robotnik it back.

Stone babysits for Sonic "without Robotnik knowing" (he knows but ignores it)

I just really love this concept-

WE SEE YOU STONE.  WE SEE YOU. 👀👀 it’s most likely that he intended to convey sympathy with that smile (“this is what it’s like for me every day and i wouldn’t change a thing.”), but i like to think that he was genuinely amused by robotnik’s sass. perhaps it’s even a mixture of both!
