Altered Static AU:
A what if Sonic and Tails, and Surge and Kit swap roles AU but slightly different. The Altered Static AU takes place from the events of issue 1 of the IDW Sonic Comics but instead of Tails staying at Vista View, he would accompany Sonic going strait to Barricade Town leaving Amy to look after Riverside, not meeting Lanolin as well as Knuckles taking care of the Resistance. When Sonic and Tails arrived, they would see Rough and Tumble as well as a Platypus (Starline, not introduced yet) trying to kidnap a tenrec and fennec named Ashura and King (Surge and kit in this AU). Sonic and Tails would stop them but not without a sacrifice of being knocked out and kidnapped in their places. Feeling extreamly guilty, Ashura and King would take up the mantle of Sonic and Tails, with Ashura training to be as fast as Sonic and King trying to get better with technology despite having prior knowledge.
The AU would continue as how the IDW Sonic Comics would but not without some slight changes for example the extended cast grieving because they believe Sonic and Tails are dead, though some refuse to believe this as well as Eggman still creating metal Sonic, despite Sonic being gone.
Meanwhile Starline would create Project Ogilvie and Project Miles (Sonic and Tails in this AU), but Ogilvie would rather just be called "Vee". They would be experimented on by Starline like Surge and Kit were in cannon, erasing their memories, making them cyborgs, using the metal virus on them, giving them different powers and reshaping their minds and personalities. Vee and Miles would first let themselves be known when they set Forest Ridge Zone Campgrounds ablaze.
Synchronicity:
It's a mesh of many of Sonic's continuities over the years (Fleetway, Idw, Archie, even a bit of underground) with the addition of two original characters: Jack Rabbit(*) and Synergy Decipher.
(*) Different character from the one that appears in Archie
The fully original story part of the AU follows the journey of these two (& Metal Sonic) and how they all formed a team together.
The Au showcases their dynamics together, how they act as a team, their interactions before becoming said team (mostly non-friendly) and of course: some good ol metal virus angst.
There is also another original plotline with the CD Zone, featuring Sinker the Zonehog, Miles "Line" A'Minute and Hook the Echidna, along with their Zone's fellow residents andā¦ Fiona and Scourge???
About Dawn: Dawn Rose, daughter of Silver and Amy, is a spunky, happy-go-lucky girl with a passionate streak - having no problems with telling people things exactly as she sees them, no matter how blunt that may seem. She has the ability to create anything from her imagination as a construct of light, with the caveat she may only use her powers under sunlight, leading her to get hand-to-hand training from Amy. When she was younger, she tried to follow Silver through a time portal, but got stuck in the fabric of time-space, and now a part of her soul is tied to white space, causing her to travel through time against her will.
About Roz: Roz the tenrec was created by Starline using the DNA of Amy and Surge and would inherent powers from Amy being super strength and invisibility. Roz would be stuck in stasis for several years in Starline's abandon lab, until Surge would stumble across and free him, taking him to see Amy and who would be his older brother Cuff the Hedgehog. When she found him, he was only known as Project R-03, but Amy would give him the name Roz. Later on he would get his own Piko Piko Hammer that Tails made that can conduct electricity to help his brother in battle if he needs to, though Roz's powers tend to flare up when he's upset, he mainly acts rude and tries to seem confident in himself to stop this, but no matter what he does the public still sees him as a project of Starline's and not the hero he wants to be.

"Hello Roz, my name is Sunrise and it's nice to meet you! Is your parent Auntie Amy? I hope we can be friends, good luck in the showdown!"
-Sunrise, from @navy-the-tiger
"Yeah, on a technicality I guess Amy is one of my parents, but Surge told me that I was created in a lab by some creepy platypus guy using their DNA, so I find it kind of weird to call them mum or ma, but my older brother calls them that, I still call them by their names though. Anyway we can be friends if you want, good luck in the showdown."
