Hey Do You Guys Want To Hear My Thesis About How Sonadow And Narumitsu Are Literally The Same Ship

hey do you guys want to hear my thesis about how sonadow and narumitsu are literally the same ship

“kill them with kindness” WRONG. reddening attack 🔴🔴🔴💥🔴🔴🔴✨⭐️🔴🔴🔴⭐️⭐️🔴⭐️🔴⭐️🔴🔴💥💥💥💥🔴🔴⭐️⭐️⭐️🔴💥💥 🔴🔴🔴⭐️✨⭐️🔴✨✨✨💥🔴✨🔴⭐️🔴🔴🔴💥💥✨⭐️✨⭐️🔴🔴🔴

realised i’ve never shared this so: here is the red string board (padlet) i made when i first started listening to the magnus archives!

i was using it to keep track of recurring characters, characters i thought were important or connected to each other, recurring places, etc. i think i stopped midway through season 2 when things became clearer

my favourite thing about this is that in all of my initial theorising, not ONCE did i stop and think that elias would be an important character…

(split/slightly higher quality ver below the cut)

i can’t draw but in the spirit of not taking photos of strangers here’s a recreation of the man i saw today trying to single-handedly wrangle a toddler and his two giant bernese mountain dogs who really wanted the toddler’s pastry

of course you don’t but anyways

- red and blue (a classic dynamic)

- the blue one is a sunshine character with a lot of repressed trauma who places the well-being of the innocents around him entirely onto himself; the red one has a harsh and aggressive exterior because his childhood has left him unable to trust others and so it’s easier to be obnoxious and confident and push people away than to accept his own flaws and need for help

- the red one watched a beloved family member get shot in front of him and blames himself, before later being gaslight by a morally dubious faux father figure into believing he is someone only useful as a tool in enacting a moral code he would not naturally gravitate towards

- the blue one helps the red one come to terms with his past and learn how to think for himself and use the skills he is forced to develop for good. the red one then “dies”, leaving the blue one mourning (don’t worry! the red one inexplicably comes back from the dead later)

- the red one is semi-adopted by an older sibling figure (rouge/fraziska (yes i am aware she’s younger but she calls miles her little brother)); the blue one semi-adopts a younger sibling/child figure (tails/maya+trucy)

- they have a rivalry that is more a competitive friendship based on the fact that they both consider the other their only equal and have a massive respect for the way the other is able to approach issues. their inability to clearly communicate this harms their friendship early on and increases tension. they’re very gay about it

- the blue one has An Incident to do with water (okay technically sonic is just afraid of water but whatever the point stands i’m sure something happens in cannon at some point)

- the red one has to step up and take the blue one’s place at some point when the blue one is incapacitated (sonic’s 6 months as a prisoner of war/phoenix in hospital)

- the red one feels that he has to atone for those he has “killed” in the past. this of course makes him more broody.

- everyone has their own flavour of martyr complex

- you KNOW that shadow would spit the “unnecessary feelings” line. he would fucking say that.
