My hope for Sonic 4? For agent Stone to get more than 5 minutes of screen time.

Okay, we all know about au's where Stone is some variation of a non-human creature, and i love this concept a lot, but consider this:

Doctor kind of just looks at his agent and forms a hypothesis that, with all kinds of things Stone is capable of doing and tolerating(maintaining his calmness and a somewhat good mood after being around Robotnik for a long period of time included), he simply cannot be human. Doctor doesn't know what he is, but he doesn't doubt his theory.

In fact, being a man of science that he is, Robotnik goes on to scientifically prove it(to which Stone, the ever loyal agent, agrees to), quite literally putting the man under a microscope, just to find out that.. he is, in fact, a human.

Now, he's certainly disappointed — finding a sentient alien of sorts would have been thrilling — but mostly just appalled. So he all but inspects Stone, thoroughly, to find out if there's anything extraordinary about the man's body or brain. He's almost offended to see that, despite being just a few screws loose in the head, Stone is a completely ordinary, imperfect human. There's absolutely no reason for him to be able — or willing to — go through everything he'd been through, and yet here he is.

I think that might as well be the moment Robotnik stopped tolerating his Agent and started liking him.

I think it's common for people to start seeing dreams before they are fully fall asleep (especially if one was waking up and falling back asleep multiple times over the course of a short period of time)

But today i started dreaming like this, and i was blinded by a ray of sunshine that hit a mirror. a mirror that i was turning?? in my head?? hello?

I genuinely think chances are that many of the superstitions were made because individual people were scared of/anxious about something specific, but when asked why so they didn't really want to explain it so they answered with something along the lines of "if you do *a specific thing in a specific situation* something bad will happen" or The Gods Will Be Angered™

Maybe.. maybe it's all not that bad as long as i get to put the link to the Ao3 into my "big" and "serious" scientific research work.

I think i might be heading into the right direction in this little life.

I gotta do another one for the next study year bye

I'm back at the fucking building again💔

I feel like we don't talk enough about these wholesome moments when you tell someone a joke, and they then proceeded to go and tell it to their friend who probably was not listening. Like oh my god, you liked my joke so much you wanted to share it with someone close to you? Stop i will cry

Today i had two normal meals and each time it was my comfort food and one desert between those meals which wasn't so good from the flavor perspective BUT it had the right texture and i think that these meals is what made my day good despite the fact that i had to go shopping for clothes today

A human, who for some reason can't come back to the place that they consider home, and so, as a sort of therapy, they decide to just straight up consider the whole planet as their home. They travel, meet new people, sleep under the stars and on someone's couches, all and all healing from their trauma of losing home and enjoying their life as it is.

Little do they know, that a alien race is already on the way to yoink their ass from the planet.

Human B, who was also abducted by aliens to be studied: I miss my family and my home, don't you?

A, staring straight ahead of themselves: I already lost my family once. I didn't know I'd lose my home twice.

B: ..uhh, huh?

A, looking them dead in the eyes: I thought that i couldn't lose if my home was just the whole planet. I genuinely don't know if i should laugh now or kill everyone on this spaceship, including myself.

Sonic movie 2, while Stone was in that giant robot with Robotnik, he fell and hit his head on metal hard enough to knock him out so bad, that he didn't get up until Robotnik himself fell. I really don't believe that Stone could avoid a concussion in a situation like this.

Do you guys think the only reason he was up and alright after that was because Robotnik used the Emerald's power to make absolutely sure Stone would be okay? I mean, he was essentially granted god powers at this point, i think he could.

Now, another question: do you guys think the Emerald's power has to do something with the fact that Stone was alright after the crash of the robot?

Okay, he was unconscious, so his body was relaxed at the moment of crash, which, as i heard, could save from some impact from collision in car crashes. Also, let's take into account the matter of luck — Stone, unlike Robotnik, could have been not buried under the metal debris. By pure chance, utter luck. And still — Stone fell from the same height (which is, as i found, was approximately 2000 ft), could have hit his head again, broken his neck or spine, his legs or arms. But no, he was fine. Able to walk and steal the uniform of a GUN agent on duty and all but carry Robotnik to get him some medical help. Because Robotnik, unlike Stone, would certainly die without it.

This is was got me thinking — what if Robotnik, while he still had the Emerald, not only wished for Stone's head injury to be as minor as possible, but also for agent to be okay until the fight is over? He could.

..And if he did, do you think they ever talked about it. Do you think Stone, while taking care of maimed Robotnik, took some time to notice and to think of the why he came out of this unharmed? Do you think he ever worked up the courage to ask Robotnik, who barely survived, if he had any thoughts about that? Do you think Robotnik himself ever noticed what he did here? Or was the thought of wanting his agent to be okay so natural and fundamental for him that it didn't even register as a wish he made for the Emerald to grant?

[a-single-nanite]

That's a very interesting thing to think about.

Stone was in the nose of the mech I think, and Sonic sliced that off. Still, it fell from the same height as Robotnik did.

Perhaps after Robotnik's Little quip when Stone hit his head, he did do something about it. Maybe nothing so significant at the time, considering he didn't think he'd lose, but in the end made a big difference for Stone's survival.

I think Stone being inside of the mech head when he fell must have helped in some way. Ivo was on the top of it, so when he fell it was just him all that way down.

I don't really think the movie makers thought too hard about Stone. Ivo surviving a fall like that at all is an extreme stretch. It's a nice touch that they had any kind of explanation even though it was cut from the third movie. Our disbelief is suspended enough throughout the entire 3 movies to accept alien hedgehogs, that us believing Ivo survived let alone Stone surviving and being unharmed enough to save Ivo isn't hard for the audience to do.

In stories sometimes it's nice just for them to say, "This is our reality. This is what happened." Without having to explain everything. Sometimes being vague is what's best for a story. You can get lost in details that aren't needed.

That being said. I never actually thought about how Stone was so unharmed compared to Ivo. I saw him kind of injured at the end and that was enough for me. 100% something about Stone being in his little pod changed his chances.

I think in this area where we don't have anything to work with in cannon, we can have fun filling in those blanks ourselves. Because clearly Something must have happened after they cut away.

I feel like the pondering in this case is more fun than having the answers.

I like how you said that Ivo just naturally wants his agent ok he doesn't even think about it. For Stone that moment isn't there. A horrible blank spot to a very important event he wasn't conscious for. Last he left off Ivo had the upper hand. What happened? What happened that he couldn't stop or help prevent that had him waking hurting, had him searching full of adrenaline and dread for the doctor? And finding him barely alive, but ALIVE none the less.

For Ivo THAT moment of Stone finding him isn't there. A blank spot in his mind of how much he means to Stone. He saw none of it. Not the fear, not the anguish, not the soul deep relief that there was anything left to save at all.

It would be interesting to explore how the two of them deal with those empty vacant memories. In both they had helped save the other.

[rathersillymindset]

If i had to guess I think that those blank spots in both Rob's and Stone's minds are one of the reasons people go crazy over Crab era. Cause this era is a blank spot in OUR minds now, and we have basically zero idea abt what was happening in that time besides Ivo recovering from his various injuries.

What we do know is that whatever was happening kinda changed their dynamic — maybe in little ways, but nonetheless meaningful. For instance, in a way that Robotnik easily lets Stone get into his personal space and touch him first. How both of them are so at ease with having a shared living space. Many things must've happened along the way, and we are not let in on any of them. But we can ponder and that's more fun. )

That's why I, personally, love stobotnik and like Crab era.

Although Stone doesn't generally give off the vibe of a golden retriever type of person, it suddenly struck me that he does look like a golden retriever boyfriend

I randomly stumbled upon this picture, and now i want everyone to know that while writing previous post this is literally what i had in mind lol

It would be funny if, while Robotnik and Stone still worked for the government, there were rumors going around that they fuck

Robotnik knows about it because of course he does and has no strong feelings about it. If anything he might even find it funny how people would look at his completely normal and professional relationship with his loyal assistant-bodyguard-sycophant and immediately think of that. Truly, why would any of those imbeciles assume this- wdym typically people don't grab their employees by the inside of their mouth? 👁️👁️

Stone, on the contrary, remained oblivious to these rumors for a long time, and when did find out he didn't particularly mind that. However, he watched Robotnik very closely to see if he was in any way uncomfortable with that all, just to come to the conclusion that he might even not know. Everyone they met was smart enough to not mention these rumors in doctor's presence and Rob didn't acknowledge their existence around Stone either, so he assumed that they didn't reach Rob's ears.

Also, i believe that these rumors never truly died, more so — as time passed, even after both Robotnik and Stone "quit", everyone just became more and more convinced that all of that was true. So, by the time Robotnik returned with the power of the Emerald and Stone, of course, wanted to stay by his side, not even Walters was particularly surprised at that.

I think because i listen to music almost 24/7 atp, when i dream, i can dream about songs. Except these songs don't exist. I only dream of a motif and like 2, rarely 3 lines. Sometimes I remember the lines and try to search for this song(which never led me to any sufficient result), and sometimes I don't, and the motif haunts me for the rest of the day.

The reason I'm writing this is because one time I talked abt it and the person i was talking to was surprised to hear that I experience this, and I want to know if anybody else had dreamt of songs?

Stobotnik headcanons and stereotypically feminine things

It's lowkey a popular headcanon that Stone likes his nails painted, and I totally agree with this one, but i want to add that i think he would enjoy wearing rings and earrings of all forms and sizes too. However, i think that he wouldn't get to wear all of those as much as he'd like to because a) he's working as a bodyguard of a professional ragebaiter, and if things escalate quickly it can be uncomfortable/dangerous to fight with jewellery on; b) bro is a secret agent, he definitely was taught to not wear things that will make him stand out of the crowd, and jewelry/painted nails on a man is something people will remember.

I like to imagine that Robotnik is entirely unbothered about gender as a social construct, and so if he sets his mind on doing something, and it's considered not manly enough or straight up feminine, the expectations of society will be the furthest thing on his mind, and they certainly won't stop him. And so i think Ivo Robotnik would love dresses: specifically those absurdly bulky and fluffy ones, to the point that it's impossible to get closer than a meter to his face unless he leans in towards you. Naturally, wearing such dress would be impossible without supporting construction underneath(i believe that its called pannier, but i might be wrong), and once he tried corsets he knew he'd look good wearing those and he was right.

As to jewelry on Robotnik: this man has to be a magpie. Rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets on hands and legs, various hair accessories — he will greedily take everything. I bet he knows how to combine his accessories with the outfit, and he certainly has some taste, so he won't wear everything he has on one day. But if he wanted to he could go a full year or longer wearing a few pieces of jewellery every day, and you won't see him wearing the same piece twice — that's how massive his collection is.

Returning to Stone: I don't think he'd like to wear any skirts or dresses bc he just prefers pants and shirts more, but I think that he knows how to walk on high heels. It is also very important for me to think that Robotnik, on the contrary, has no idea how to even stand on them and he is sulking about this fact. Just imagine how funny it would be if someday Rob dares Stone to wear stilettos to some event and he goes and starts aura farming as soon as they're on his feet. Even funnier if after that he just refuses to give a straight forward answer as to when, where and how the fuck, Stone did he learn to walk on those.
