Blue and his boyfriend

A gift for one of my best friends @Blue_Thunder97 (Twitter and Bluesky). He recently started a relationship, so I figured it'd be cute to get some couples art of them. Drawn by @flightlessart

So the last couple times I brought up the villagers who showed up in the 2019 Annual and today’s Issue, I had people bring up to me that they aren’t Wolves who could somehow be related to Whisper and are instead Fennec Foxes, and that got me thinking... Is there any evidence to support that they could in fact be Fennec Foxes and not Wolves? And inversly, is there any other evidence to support that they’re Wolves and not Fennec Foxes?

I did a little digging through my old posts and on the Sonic Wiki to see if there was any other info on them that could give us any clues, and what I found was that their species isn’t actually brought up at all when they show up on the Wiki, meaning that what they are is left kinda up in the air and they could technically be anything. The Wiki also doesn’t mention any possible connection to Whisper though, but because I’m going purely off of visual similarities, then that makes sense. If there isn’t any more evidence to support that they’re related at all outside of just visual similarities, then there would be no reason to outright say that they’re related or that they could be related on the Wiki.

Also, I threw together a bit of a side-by-side comparison of the villagers and Whisper so you can see what they both look like and similarities between them that could be relevant...

Now, while I do agree that the villagers DO kinda look like Fennec Foxes (mainly because of the size of their ears), there also are so many similarities between them and Whisper that it seems like they were specifically designed to go along with her. While Whisper’s ears are a lot smaller, the style of them is pretty similar to the way the villagers’ ears look, and the facial coloring, their tails, and especially the fact that some of them have closed eyes like Whisper are the main things that make me think just by visuals alone that they could be related to Whisper, and if they are, then they would logically be Wolves. It is TECHNICALLY possible that they are in fact Fennec Foxes but are still related to her (like maybe their really distant relatives, or maybe Whisper is a hybrid between the two), but I still think it would be more likely for them to be Wolves, and the elder of them that shows up in both of their appearences could be like her Grandmother or something like that.

Another thing to consider is that we now have an actually confirmed Fennec Fox character in IDW in the form of Kit, and while he also shares a couple similar features to these villagers (such as the look of the ears and the cheek fur), there are less similarities I see between him and Whisper to them, so if I had to make a bet which of the two is more likely related to them, I’d still pick Whisper.

And now you’re probably wondering... Why the hell did I just break this down piece by piece when these are fictional characters and at the end of the day none of this means anything? Well, if you think about it, Whisper is the character in IDW with probably the most lore surrounding her, and there also are still quite a few things we don’t about her and the rest of the Diamond Cutters (such as how they came to be and the whole thing with Slinger apparently having a backstory), so I can see these villagers being related to Whisper as yet another layer of that that could tie the whole thing together. Maybe Whisper was somehow seperated from them or had to leave them to join the Diamond Cutters for some reason, or maybe someone else related to her was also a member of the group at some point before she stepped in to fill their place. Maybe the other Diamond Cutters were aware that Whisper was once a part of this group of villagers (possibly a Wolf pack) and they told them to go into hiding because of Eggman and that’s the reason why they were seperated and are now looking for her. There’s so many possible directions I can see this going, so to me, their appearences and the fact that they could be connected to Whisper seem like something that could very well become a very important plot-point at some point, and the fact they just now showed up again while Whisper is off doing her own thing means that that point could also be approaching.

Happy Friday everyone! I hope it's been a great day so far. I found this cute mushroom photo and right away imagined a fennec fox sleeping in it. I've always wanted one as a pet.
