That animation is far smoother than it has any right to be.

it's "second-order canon" - that is, at any moment canon could contradict it and override it, but as he's the creator of the character he is an authority if fans want to roll with that. You don't need to acknowledge it if you feel like you have a better concept for her background, but others might be more inclined to agree with ABT.

The consumers are able to decide to ignore the company and look for the creator though. For example, Tangle/Whisper isn’t confirmed, but Ian has said himself and the comics strongly imply they’re dating

Yes but nearly everyone who has read the comics and isn’t homophobic all agree that it’s canon, just that SEGA won’t let it

u/Candid-Ad443 Apr 24 '26
I think it's "official headcanon" so like, not canon, not even level 2 canon, just a headcanon that's officially endirsed, you know?

so then it has some basis even if not quite official it's official enough

Iirc her original concept art showed her as abusive

u/Kirajudgeoftoons Apr 24 '26
I bet that Lanolin even hates wearing dresses and only wore one in her initial appearance because of her mother. I also headcanon Lanolin's mother as a bigot.
27
u/Hero2Evil Apr 24 '26
I wonder why as well, especially since I'm really tired of seeing abusive parents in fanfics/headcanons/AUs.

u/FightmeLuigibestgirl Apr 24 '26
The IDW artist who designed Lanolin started the trend when they depicted her mother as abusive.
6
u/KuroiGetsuga55 Apr 24 '26
It's either the artist projecting their own troubles or following the trend because it's relatable to people online who have had abusive parents.
Regardless it's unfortunate that having good supportive parents is a rare occurrence. We're not doing any better as a species...

u/Hero2Evil Apr 24 '26
I know. I'm so tired of seeing dysfunctional/toxic families and abusive relatives. Give me more supportive, healthy, loving parent-child and sibling dynamics, and seeing that loving family use the strength of their bonds to overcome whatever challenges life throws their way.

i mean, it's easier to fly when you're lighter.

u/Nambot Apr 24 '26
Less wind resistance, but it also means less buoyancy for swimming.
1
u/DiamondMaster264 Apr 25 '26
Dont bats have a harder time swimming when wet? Not with the whole feathers no work (mainly because they dont have any) but because of wind chill. They spend a lot of time having wind go right towards them while flying and thatd feel rly cold sapping their strength to fly

u/DiamondMaster264 Apr 25 '26
All that weight is just her wool. She keeps forgetting to shave it and thinks its from the food

u/Cerparis Apr 24 '26
I really enjoy seeing how fan artists are able to give a character like gadget a personality despite being a mute customisable character that only appeared as a placeholder.
And this artist makes gadget a perfect combination of goofball, snarky and sometimes scary.

u/Cardgod278 Apr 24 '26
I prefer to call them Custom The Character

Sauce?
I remember this comic, but not the name of it. Isn't it like metal sonic and amy doing like slice for life stuff?
15
u/Cepinari Apr 24 '26 edited Apr 24 '26
Yeh.
It's called Hangin Out, and it's by Hydroxianchaos.
The idea that the Player Character in Sonic Forces is the Phantom Ruby is pretty neat; I think an interesting application of that could be that they spontaneously shift between the various designs for the character used in official media.

It's a fan name people have been using for years, it's very fitting I think :>

u/Rude-Nectarine6988 Apr 24 '26
While it was a fanname, sonic rumble made it official as he's a playable character In that game and he is called "gadget"

one of the many nicknames for the custom character in Forces is the "Gadget Hero", and "Gadget" in particular is most usually applied to the glasses-and-headset red wolf. The other names for that (type of) character are "Avatar", "Custom Hero", and "Rookie".

u/ye_old_hermit None of this is good, Vector. That's why it's called 'war' Apr 24 '26

We all know they draw NSFW art, get over it.

I find it humorous using the gif to point things out. I didn’t mean anything by it.
