Things they never mention when you cut off someone as a middle schooler:
Sometimes, it can take years to realize how bad things were.
You start out thinking that you just didn't click. Then you begin thinking of it as toxic. Then you start realizing it was manipulative. Then after 3 years, you can finally see it for what it was. You were being abused. It was an abusive relationship.
But you can't go around and say that. After all, you were both 13 and you didn't even date or anything. You were just friends. And sure he was bad to you, but didn't you mess up a bit too?
People tend to make their assumptions and tune out the rest of the story once you bring up that it was in seventh grade.
Meanwhile every time you have to see him in class, you die inside a little more. He makes eye contact with you once and you're in a state of panic for the rest of the week. You're scared that one day he's going to try and do something else- get revenge on you for rebelling against his control and refusing to be his little puppy anymore.
You walk the halls in terror. He could be anywhere, any time, ready to get back at you. He's tested the waters and learned how badly you fear him. He seems to take joy in that.
All your friends swear they would protect you, but you know they wouldn't be able to intervene quick enough to avoid any damage being done- mental or physical. You know that he's still stronger and more set in his views. He wouldn't lose any fight against you, it doesn't matter if he chooses words or fists.
You live in fear. Some don't believe you, others don't fully understand. Some swear to protect you, others seem to think you would deserve it. But no matter what, the only thing you know for sure is that if something happens, you are completely, and utterly, fucked.
My greatest fear is growing old without you.
The hope, that you may never read these words.
The fear, that you may never read these words.
Chapter 2 Part 1
A year ago if you had told Leo that he would one day be sitting with his brothers on a rooftop above his home city not to escape the confines of their fathers strict no going to their surface unless for errands rule but to talk about their day at high school,he would have called you crazy. But now it’s the new normal.
Even though him and his brothers had been going to school like normal teens for a couple of months now, it was still new and exciting everyday. They all had found new and cool ways to express themselves and finally got to find people who were interested in the same things they were.
And as his brothers continued talking about their day, Leo thought back on the crazy events that led them to this moment. Who knew fighting a giant mutant monster and saving the world was a key tool when trying to be accepted? And now that they managed to do the impossible;
‘What can stop us now?’ He thought.
Well sadly, soon he would find out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just then, Leo heard the sound of tampered footsteps briskly running behind. He whipped his head around aspecting it to be a joke made be his littlest brother mikey only to be met with the empty rooftops of lower manhattan. Unknowingly, the turtle boys heart rate elevated as his dread nearly consumed him.
That was until his twin Raph broke him out of his panic.
“Hey!Nardo!You good?”
Though he hated admitting it, Raphs twin senses always seemed to know when he needed to step in to help is slightly older brother.
And as always it was just the right thing to do the job.
“Yeah I just-. Something felt I dunno kinda off I guess,”
“What would feel off?,” Donnie questioned fixing his lopsided glasses.
“I heard footsteps,” Leo answered trying to calm himself down from the embarrassing react to the normal sounds of NYC.
“Leo, We’re in the most populated city’s on Earth.What do you expect?” Donnie said rolling his eyes at his easily spooked brother.
“Cmonn guys.Why should we be fighting over this?” Mikey pitched in, growing sick of his brothers’ constant arguments over the tiniest of things.
“We already beat an 100 foot tall monster and saved humanity all while still managing to be accepted as normal teenagers.”
As he continued his tiny speech, Mikey stood up and started backing up. How could he have known that this action would cause events that would spark the turtles next great and horrifying adventure.
“What could ruin that now?”
As he stared at his brothers’ faces, Mikey expected them to be filled with amazement and aw at his performance but was only met with faces of fear and dread.
Not too his knowing, a tall dark figure stood behind Mickey waiting until the moment of that fear and dread reached their victim to pounce.
Well I hope I filled you guys with fear for Mikey because I definitely did that to myself and I do not like being afraid and alone. Good night!

Is Riley from Inside-Out genderfluid or non-binary? No, because in the movie, everyone is shown to have all the emotions in their heads seeming to represent the gender by which the person identifies, however, in Riley's case, the emotions are shown to represent both Femme and Masc. So how's that work? Does this make sense or am I too cat-deprived?
can we take a moment to just think about how incredibly scary magical healing is in-context?
You get your insides ripped open but your friend waves his hands and your flesh just pulls back together, agony and evisceration pulling back to a ‘kinda hurts’ level of pain and you’re physically whole, with the 100% expectation that you’ll get back up and keep fighting whatever it was that struck you down the first time.
You break your arm after falling somewhere and after you’re healed instead of looking for ‘another way around’ everybody just looks at you and goes “okay try again”.
You’ve been fighting for hours, you’re hungry, thirsty, bleeding, crying from exhaustion, and a hand-wave happens and only two of those things go away. you’re still hungry, you’re still weak from thirst, but the handwave means you have ‘no excuse’ to stop.
You act out aggressively maybe punch a wall or gnash your teeth or hit your head on something and it’s hand-waved because it’s ‘such a small injury you probably can’t even feel it anymore’ but the point was that you felt it at all?
Your pain literally means nothing because as long as you’re not bleeding you’re not injured, right? Here drink this potion and who cares about the emotional exhaustion of that butchered village, why are you so reserved in camp don’t you think it’s fun retelling that time you fell through a burning building and with a hand-wave you got back up again and ran out with those two kids and their dog?
Older warriors who get a shiver around magic-users not because of the whole ‘fireball’ thing but the ‘I don’t know what a normal pain tolerance is anymore’ effect of too much healing. Permanent paralysis and loss of sensation in limbs is pretty much a given in the later years of any fighter’s life. Did I have a stroke or did the mage just heal too hard and now this side of my face doesn’t work? No i’m not dead from the dragon’s claws but I can’t even bend my torso anymore because of how the scar tissue grew out of me like a vine.
Magical healing is great and keeps casualties down.
But man.
That stuff is scary.

Warning: there is blood and horror in this fanfiction! It is recommended to read the story from the age of +12!
I was inspired to write fan fiction by the cartoon "Coraline".
As soon as Tails woke up, he felt as if there was a fog in his head. She seemed so heavy that I wanted to put her back on the pillow, close my eyes and sleep for a couple more hours. My vision was slightly blurred.
But still, the golden two-tailed fox cub got up and got off the bed, because he must have slept for a very long time.
Yes, that's the way it is. Outside the window, the sun was already at its zenith. Tails had been asleep for quite some time. Although he usually got up much earlier. Why didn't the alarm clock wake him up? Is it broken?
The fox looked at the bedside table that always stood next to the bed.
Weird… There was no alarm clock… Maybe Sonic took it away to let him sleep it off?
Here the fox cub winced a little, as he remembered a recent quarrel with his best friend and older brother, Sonic the blue hedgehog.
— Tails, how much can I do?! When will you stop sitting and working at night? It's bad for your body! — the hedgehog shouted at him then.
— But, Sonic, with this new Tornado generator, it will be able to fly even faster! I just have to finish working on it!
— Tails, do you see what time it is? You should have been sleeping in your bed and watching the seventh dream by now!
— Don't tell me what I should and shouldn't do! I decide for myself what is better for me! Tails shouted back at him.
— Tails, I'm your friend and brother, I'm worried about you! You're still too young, and you need to think about your health!
— I'd rather take care of my own! And stop patronizing me so much! I'm not small anymore! — the fox cub shouted, but still went to his room. — And you're nobody to control me!
Now, Tails felt slightly guilty that he had behaved this way towards his best friend, because he really just cared about him and worried about him.
— Taaaaaaaiiils! — soon he heard a familiar voice. — Are you awake? I've made you something to eat.
—Yes, I'm on my way, — Tails replied, and left his room and headed for the stairs. "Hmm... it seems to me, or has the house... changed?.." he suddenly thought, looking at the walls. — "I don't remember me and Sonic painting the walls again… At least the other day..." — and when he went downstairs, he saw various awards and certificates dedicated to him, which involuntarily confused the boy. After all, he remembered for sure that on the wall in the corridor, as well as in the glass cabinet on the ground floor, there were no awards and thanks from him. "Where did all this come from? Or am I still asleep?" he mused as he walked towards the kitchen. A pleasant aroma soon wafted out, and Tails recognized the smell of fried eggs and bacon, which made him smile. But after a moment, he was slightly surprised. - "How strange… Sonic doesn't usually cook breakfast for me, that's what I do... and there were always chilidogs for my breakfast..." Then he noticed that flicky's bird had flown up to the window. It would seem that such a thing? Yes, but looking closer, Tails noticed that instead of the usual eyes, the bird had black buttons, which are usually made for plush toys. But how is this possible? And Flicki, it seems, got tired of sitting by the window and looking at the fox cub, and she fluttered away. Tails shook his head. "It seemed, probably… After all, there is no such thing..." — but his thoughts were interrupted by the voice of the hedgehog:
— Taaaaaaaiils! Your breakfast will get cold soon! Sonic hurried him on.
— I'm coming! — and the little fox went into the kitchen. There was a plate of fried eggs and bacon on the table. Meanwhile, Sonic was frying his portion.
— Hello, my friend! How did you sleep? How are you feeling? — The hedgehog asked cheerfully and cheerfully.
— Hi, Sonic. I... I seemed to sleep well ... the mood ... is also quite good ... — the little fox answered a little uncertainly. He still felt guilty about his brother. — And how are you?
— Just fine, bro! I am sure that today will bring us a lot of joy and fun! — said Sonic. Tails nodded in agreement. Although it was a little strange to hear the last phrase of the hedgehog. Sonic, of course, is optimistic, but to say so…
Looking at his breakfast, Tails swallowed his saliva, it smelled so delicious. But his heart felt so heavy, as if there was a stone inside him. He should have apologized for his harsh and rude words to his brother.
— Sonic?.. Are you... not mad at me?..
"What are you talking about, Tails?" Sonic asked.
— Well... I was rude to you last night... and... you just can't imagine how ashamed I am…
—Oh, come on, Tails! I'm not offended! Whatever it is, I've already forgiven you!
— Really? Just like that? Tails asked incredulously.
— I've... said so many nasty things to you! But you were right that I shouldn't sit and work late, and I…
— What are you talking about, Tails! If you want to work on your inventions, then work for your health! Who am I to limit a genius inventor like you!
— Well ... I wouldn't call myself such a genius ... — the boy was embarrassed. — I just love inventing and working with mechanisms and machines…
— And you're doing it great, bro! You have an incredible mind and a wonderful talent! I'm lucky to have such a wonderful little brother!
— But… Sonic, you said yourself that for my..." he did not have time to finish, as he saw the same strange flicky with buttons instead of eyes again.
"What did I say, Tails?" Sonic asked, still standing with his back to me. And a small smoke came from the fried in the pan. It seems that the hedgehog somehow overdid his breakfast... or lunch, since it was already noon?
— Sonic, do you know what's wrong with flicky?
— Flicky? What kind of flicky?
— Well, he seems to have instead of ... — the fox cub glanced at the window where the bird had been recently, but now it was not there. — It doesn't matter. Haven't you already made yourself something to eat? Because... your scrambled eggs are burnt, I think…
— Oh, because I'm wondering where the smoke came from. Hehe. How forgetful I am," Sonic finally turned to his friend and put his portion on the table, opposite the fox cub. "Why don't you have breakfast yourself?" Come on, your food is getting cold, right?
— I don't think so.… I just wanted to talk first, and then start eating..." Tails looked down.
"Anyway, there's plenty of time, kid. I'm ready to listen to you all day," Sonic smiled at him.
"All day?" The boy frowned. — What about your run? Saving the world from... you-know-who?.. — He looked at the hedgehog and opened his mouth in fright.
"What is it, Tails?" Have I grown horns or a nose? Heh-heh-heh," he chuckled.
—Who are you...?". That's all Tails said.
— Who am I? — the hedgehog was surprised. — I'm Sonic. Your best friend and also your older brother. Or have you already forgotten that? Hehe.
— No, it's not… You're not Sonic..." Tails frowned, getting up from the table.
— Sonic doesn't have... — here his voice trembled, while the boy looked directly at the "Sonic", — bu ... bu…
— Buttons? — the hedgehog finished and smiled sweetly, poking his index finger right in his eyes. The pupils were green buttons located in the white whites of the eyes, but they also moved as if they were completely ordinary pupils in the eyes. Tails nodded and swallowed in fright, looking at his friend's doppelganger.
— Where's Sonic?.. Where is my brother?..
—Tails, Tails, Tails... — said Sonic, shaking his head. — I am Sonic. Your best friend. Your older brother.
— No, you're not him! Tails cried out. — The real Sonic doesn't have buttons in his eyes like you do! Answer me immediately, where did you put it? What did you do to him?
— Oh, Tails... — now the hedgehog got up from the table. — Don't you know that I am Sonic, only much better than the one you knew before? Didn't you want a perfect brother who would always understand and support you? That I would do anything for you?
— My Sonic may not be perfect, but he's still better than you, impostor! He also supports me in everything, tries to understand me and is also ready for anything! He just knows that sometimes boundaries and restrictions are needed somewhere! Even... if I don't like it, but it's the right thing to do! — He replied firmly. — So tell me where I am and bring me home?
— Tails, you're home so... — the hedgehog grinned. — But... still, you probably figured me out.… You are in Another world, but in a better and more perfect one than your real world. Here you will not need to worry about the forces of evil, because it does not exist in this world. Everyone lives in peace and harmony. Everyone is happy here. And all your various desires are being fulfilled. And isn't that wonderful, in your opinion?
— And if I want to go to my real world? Will this wish come true?
— And why fulfill this wish, kiddo? Your home world is too boring. Your "real" brother doesn't always listen to you, ignores you. There's always one villain or another trying to enslave the world… So stay here, little brother. I am sure that over time you will love this wonderful world.
— But what about Sonic? He's probably worried about me... And who, if not me, will help him? — Tails himself began to back away a little.
— Didn't he replace you with other people? Did you take someone else as a partner, even someone you don't know?
Tails involuntarily remembered that this really happened more than once, when others helped Sonic instead of a fox cub. Another Sonic, noticing the doubts in the boy's eyes, continued to press on this topic:
— And I will always need you. I will never leave you. All you have to do is agree to stay here, and this world will truly be your home.
— No, I don't agree! Tails snapped, glowering at the blue hedgehog with button eyes.
— What? — he was shocked.
— What did you hear! I remember that Sonic did this sometimes, but he didn't mean me any harm at all and didn't really want to offend me! He confessed to me that he was afraid for me when I almost died in one of the battles! But now I've become his partner again, and he'll never leave me in the shadows again, just know that!
The other Sonic, apparently, was beginning to lose patience, which already somehow restrained his anger:
— But you still deserve more, Tails! He doesn't appreciate you! Besides, here you will be a recognized and world-famous genius and scientist! Haven't you dreamed about this? Were you famous and popular in your world? — Tails remembered the certificates and awards he had seen. — Yes, and you like to invent! And your Sonic underestimated your potential and limited your capabilities! But that's not going to happen to me! Just agree, and you'll be the happiest child, I swear! — He insisted.
— My answer is the same! No! I want to go back to my real world! — The fox cub shouted. — Tell me where I can find a way out! Right now!
At first, the hedgehog just looked at him gloomily, keeping silent. And Tails felt a little uneasy.
— Oh... it looks like our little foxy wants to play, right? — Another Sonic hissed. His azure fur became darker, his needles longer and sharper, and his pupils turned from green to red. Tails trembled in fear. — Well... let's play my favorite game?.. — His mouth broke into a creepy, wide smile.
— In... what... is it?.. Two—tailed dared to ask.
— HIDE AND SEEK!!! — Another Sonic announced. — And the game starts right…
Tails took off on his tails and hurried out into the street.
— NOW!!! AHAHAHAHA!!!
Once outside, Tails saw how the once-blue sky turned scarlet, and the surroundings around him lost their bright colors. "Where is the exit? How do I get out of this nightmare?" he thought, not stopping working with his tails, and frantically looked around, trying to find something like a door or portal.
— Oh, yes ... I forgot to name some conditions ... — came the hissing voice of Another Sonic. But the fox cub could not understand where he was talking from, turning his head from side to side. — To make the game more interesting, you need to find a small cave in one forest. You will immediately understand what kind of cave it is, you will not confuse it with anything. But at the same time, you will have to try not to get caught by my assistants. If you go into that cave, you've won, and I'll let you go. And if not, and my assistants, or I will catch you myself, then you will stay with me... FOREVER AND EVER!!! AHAHAHAHA!!! — Another Sonic burst out laughing ominously. — Good luck, kid… You'll need it... AHAHAHAHA!!!
— The forest? What kind of forest? — Tails asked aloud, but they didn't give him time to think properly, when suddenly something attacked him with a loud cry. The fox cub somehow dodged the attacker, and then saw flicks, but only of a larger size and intimidating appearance, as a result of which the creature looked like a hybrid of a bird and a lizard. But what has remained unchanged is the buttons instead of the eyes. The creature screamed and launched another attack. The fox cub rushed forward, trying to get rid of its pursuer. But then, as luck would have it, other scary flicks appeared, gradually approaching him.
When the monsters were already very close, Tails dived down, thereby escaping from the feathered creatures, which collided with each other, forming one tangle, from where screams came and feathers began to fall out. Apparently, they decided to fight with each other. Well, this was in the boy's favor, and he hurried to fly away from them while they were busy. "These birds couldn't just attack me...", Tails reflected. "Most likely, they attacked so that I would not fly to where they came from... which means..." and it dawned on him. "So I was flying in the right direction! There's a way out!"
But then the cry came from behind him again.
"Oh, no! Those chickens again! We must hurry!" thought the little fox, speeding up. One by one, the winged monsters attacked the flying fox. Tails barely managed to dodge them and evade their attacks. But suddenly one of the birds scratched his hand with its claws. The boy cried out in pain. Taking advantage of his confusion, another bird grabbed him by the shoulders.
— Let me go! Let me go! Let me go, you brainless chicken! — Tails screamed, trying to escape from the claws, but they only tightened, blood ran from the wounds in drops. — THAT'S IT! YOU'VE MADE ME ANGRY! — Shouting, Tails twisted around and bit the monster on one of its paws, and it let out a heart—rending scream, after which it let go. The fox cub may have been free, but then another scary bird attacked him, he was knocked down, and Tails fell down. On the way, he bumped into something, he was scratched all over, until finally he fell to the soft ground.
— Find the boy...— Tails heard after a while, coming to his senses. His body ached and his wounds burned with fire. But he remembered that he couldn't give up if he wanted to go home. — Don't let him get away… And bring him to me... alive…
"Does he need me alive? But why?" — and it was spinning in the head of the young inventor. "Other than that, it's not that important.… I have to find a way out now..." he looked around. There were black, creepy, bare trees all around him. "And it seems that the exit is somewhere nearby..." he thought. The fox somehow got up, and then jumped up and took off. However, he could not fly at such a high altitude as he would like.
"Well, at least I'm flying, that's something," he decided and flew wherever he looked.
But suddenly he felt as if something had grabbed his ankle. It turned out to be tree branches. Tails tried to jerk and pull away from the grip, but his foot was firmly stuck in the branches. And then the tree began to pull on itself. Gritting his teeth, Tails darted forward, but it didn't help, and he continued to be pulled back. Then the fox cub grabbed the nearest branch of a nearby tree. It seemed that by picking up a twig, Tails gave a signal to the second tree, and it began to pull its twig arms towards him. And then the returning birds were right there and swooping down on him.
The two-tailed fox cub pulled out a twig with all his might, which he grabbed, and then began to beat the branch holding his leg with it. And who would have thought, but with his weapon, like an axe, he cut the branch into pieces. Immediately, howls could be heard, and they seemed to come from the trees themselves.
But Tails had no time to think, he just continued on his way, occasionally dodging attacking birds and trees.
But these opponents were not enough for him, so even from the ground he was attacked by monsters that, apparently, used to look more like ricky, tiny cute chipmunks and squirrels, and now resembled scary versions of lizard animals. One of these monsters pushed him, and Tails once again made an unplanned landing. While he was lying down, the monster ricky tried to grab him. But the fox cub got up and dodged him, and then swung his tails and beat off the enemy, so that he ran into sharp branches of trees that pierced through his flesh. Looking at the corpse of the monster, from whose wounds muddy green blood was flowing, Tails hurriedly turned away, because he almost vomited from such a sight.
But he could not relax, because they did not give him a proper rest, and he was attacked from different sides by both birds and animals. And the boy had to fight them off in every possible way.
It's good that he's trained in battles with Eggman, and these skills came in handy for him.
Some creatures were pierced by tree branches, either through the whole body or through the head, others just lay in a pile, and others were wounded by a fox cub stick.
But there were still too many enemies. And no matter how hard Tails tried, he was wasting his time. And this was further confirmed by the fact that the moon began to cover the sun.
Wait, the moon? No! It looked like the shadow of a huge dark button!
So there was a game for a while after all.
Somehow repelling the attacks of his pursuers, Tails hurried to get out of the clearing while it was still possible.
Soon, he noticed some kind of glow, and he rushed there.
"It looks like this is the way out!" — Tails was delighted when he noticed a hill, under which a certain cave was located. - "There's just a little bit left!" - he exerted his last strength to get out of this whole nightmare as soon as possible.
— Are you going far, little foxy? — Someone, or rather, it was Another Sonic himself, hit him, and the boy flew off to the side, tumbling a couple of times already on the grass. — What a fool little foxy you are ... — the hedgehog addressed him in a hissing voice. — But I wanted the best for you.…
Tails got down on all fours and looked ahead. The entrance to the cave emitted a golden-white light. It was a portal leading home. A way out of this madness and horror.
Then he was kicked, and he rolled a little further away from the entrance to the cave. The boy, looking at the demon, which is exactly what Tails thought this creature was, wiped the blood under his nose and stood up again.
— Why do you need me? What do you want from me? — He dared to ask the demon, who laughed terribly.
— Didn't you understand? I need you.… Because I'm... so lonely.… And I just need company... — The other Sonic broke into a terrible smile, showing sharp triangular teeth. His fur became even darker, almost black, and the needles became terribly prickly and sharp. So there were also sharp claws on the monster's hands.
— I... don't believe you...— Tails replied. — After all... you have pets.… So why do you need me, from another world?
— Heh. Yes, I have toys in my world that I created myself, — the demon chuckled. — But you know... these little animals are my creations, nothing more… With them... I'm free to do whatever my heart desires.… And it's boring with them… Therefore, we need someone alive, even if he is from another world... — the monster grabbed the fox cub by the neck. The boy tried to escape, grabbed the demon's arm with his hands, kicked his legs, swept his tails, but this did not give him any result. — And, you know, I was ready to do a lot for you, little foxy. I could have given you so many miracles, I would have become the best brother in the world. And you just had to agree... is it that hard? Say yes now, and you will receive a great reward from me…
— No... way... — said Tails. — You're... just... playing... with me... And how... tired... will you... kill... me…
— Come on, kid... — the demon drawled sweetly. — I'm not playing with you at all, and I wasn't going to kill you. Honestly, I just wanted to give you the best and most perfect life.
— I don't... believe it… Will you... sooner... or... later... kill... me…
The demon frowned. He started getting angry again.
— Okay. If you really want to know the whole truth and you can't be fooled in anyway... — he hissed. — I'll really kill you later, because I need your life.… I need someone who has a beating heart, in whose veins flows warm sweet blood, and who has such a bright and innocent soul inside. I feed on the life of these little and lost souls... — but then he suddenly sighed a little sadly. — But to be honest, I would like it to be in a different way, at least once it happened... — there was a flash in his free hand at first, Tails squeezed his eyes shut, thinking that he was going to be killed with it. But after a moment, the boy hesitantly opened one eye. He was alive. For now. But then he saw in the demon's hand... blue shiny buttons!
— Everything could have been much better and simpler, my little Tails ... — hissed the hedgehog. — But, alas, you left me no other choice... Yes, I must admit, you amused me with your audacity and boldness, even if I was counting on a longer game ... Hee-hee-hee…
"Does he want to sew buttons on me instead of eyes?!" — Tails was horrified and feverishly began to look for something with which to escape from the monster. And then he saw a branch below, which he broke and used as a weapon against the army of monsters. He took that stick with one of his tails, and then swung it sharply at the demon.
— GET IT, DEMON!!! — shouted Tails, stabbing a branch into the monster's right eye. Greenish blood sprayed, and the demon screamed shrilly. He released the fox cub from his grip, clutching his face. Tails hurried to the cave without hesitation. He was so exhausted from all this chasing and fighting, but still he tried to hold on until the very end. He took off several times, and then fell, after which he soared into the air again, but still little by little he approached the cave and this alluring light. "A little more! Just a little more!" flashed through his mind. And when the boy was just a little bit, just a couple of centimeters away from the exit, he was grabbed by the ends of his tails.
— You're not going anywhere!!! You can't run away!!! You belong to me!!! — There was a hiss nearby.
Tails didn't turn around and just threw sand and dust in the enemy's face, and then made a dash forward towards the light.
— No, waaaaiiit!!! You're miiiiiiiine!!!
A clawed hand stretched out behind him, but there was light ahead of Tails, and he squeezed his eyes shut, waiting to finally return to his home world.
***
Tails let out a loud cry of horror. His golden fur was soaked in sticky sweat. He looked around. He was in his workshop. He managed to return home. Or was it all just a terrible nightmare? The fox cub would really like to hope for the second option…
— TAILS, WHAT HAPPENED?! — Sonic came running to him. The real Sonic. No button eyes.
— Sonic ... — the boy was incredibly happy to see his friend and brother, and therefore threw himself on his neck and burst into tears.
— Tails, what are you doing? — the hedgehog asked perplexedly. — Did you have a nightmare?
— Yes... it is… It was so scary.… I just can't describe it... — he cried, clinging to a friend with a trembling ball of golden fur.
— Easy, easy... everything is fine ... — Sonic patted him soothingly on the back, looking tenderly at his younger brother. — I'm with you, everything's fine…
Tails began to calm down a little.
— I'm sorry.… I'm sorry for the terrible things I said to you.… I'm sorry... — the little fox apologized.
— It's okay, Tails.… I've already forgiven you, don't worry... — said Sonic calmly. — Do you see? I told you that you shouldn't have stayed up late in the workshop, — the older brother reminded at the same time.
— Yes, I see it now. You were right, — Tails sobbed. — I'm sorry.
— Nothing. Come on, I'll just carry you to your soft and comfortable bed, okay?
— Uh—huh, — the fox cub mumbled in agreement, after which Sonic, holding his younger brother in his arms, headed to the bedroom of the young inventor. On the way, Tails looked around. Yes, everything looks exactly like a real house. The paint was worn off on the walls, and there were no awards or certificates, or anything else unusual. So, he really managed to return home or completely wake up from a terrible dream.
— And now, — said Sonic, putting the fox cub to bed, — go to bed. You can sleep well, you won't have any more nightmares. If anything, I'll be there to protect you.
— Thank you, Sonic. I love you, big brother, — Tails said, then yawned.
— I love you too, my little brother,— said the hedgehog. — Good dreams and good night.
— Good night, — and then the fox cub, closing his eyes, plunged into the land of dreams.

— Go to sleep, my little foxy… Sleep sweetly and soundly... — the hedgehog whispered to himself. Buttons appeared in his ordinary eyes instead of emerald-green pupils, and prickly himself grinned insidiously. — I told you that you would be mine ... Heh-heh-heh ... — here Another Sonic picked up a plush toy that looked like a blue green-eyed hedgehog. — And now... no ONE can save you… Even your older brother Sonic, who is now also in my hands... Ha ha ha ha... — the demon laughed ominously, and then pressed on the toy with his claws, from which scarlet blood flowed in rivulets. And there was a full white moon outside the window, which was soon covered by the shadow of a giant dark button.
THE END?..
Once he was weak
Once he was frail
Erratic and petulant
Puny no longer
Deemed nothing
Perceived as useless
Abandoned by everyone.
Who got the last laugh?
He was always bullied, seen as a failure
He was always judged, no redemption given
once he got power and proved them wrong
It was now he who watched from above
Judging the imbecile, the fool and the blind
Oh, the irony, he who was judged, became the judger.
Probably bad poem about my own fears of flesh
My own flesh is not my own. I am afraid that one day, in extreme pain, my body will unravel, leaving me with nothing. I am afraid that one day a doctor or dentist will fuck up, and my mouth or limbs will no longer be my own.
I am afraid of losing bodily autonomy. I am afraid, sometimes, of the courtroom, contruing the way and how I use it. Sometimes, I am afraid of gaining pregnacy weight, and not losing it. How it will sag and slow me down, with nothing to hold it up. Then everyone will call me fat, and people will pressure me to exercise more. But I am not afraid of pregnancy, it is the birth I am more afraid of. Which is worse, injections or pain for hours on end?
My body and my brain are the only things of me and to me, and that I completely one hundred percent have. It is only natural that I worry.
She Haunts Me
I did this peice in school
I don't quite remember the prompt but this peice reminds me of the parts of myself i struggle with.
On one end I'm a monster, wandering endlessly looking for a "why."
And on the other, I'm a little kid, still curious and awestruck. She wants to be herself, she wants to be free, and she wants to know and understand the world around her.
Both parts I'm rediscovering and getting used to again.
Instead of being afraid, I could become something to fear
The folk of the air, Holly Black
Something I whipped up randomly in the middle of night
I FORGOT SHADE 0<0

Personal Thoughts Pt. 1: I'm afraid to start painting
Just me rambling on my own blog. I want to start painting, but I'm a little nervous to do so. I know practice makes perfect, but I feel like every time I paint it looks like a kindergartener picked up a brush and went crazy. I hate feeling as though if I mess up there's no way that I can fix it. Maybe I'm just overreacting. After all, I use markers and ink sometimes and those things gs are a lot harder to fix than paint, but I feel like I have more control over those than I do over a brush? Ehh.
At first I didn't hear him at all I was still scared of myself
What am I doing? I do hate this guy for what he did but Just a moment ago this hate consumed me I was only this hate for him no more, no less
I was afraid of it where did this all consuming hate come from and how could it take control over me like that
Many questions, no answers only the idea, the conclusion, that it came from IT somehow through the claw.
But how?
I wanted it gone but I couldn't focus enough not enough to get rid of it again
''Hey! Boy! We're done here! You can go on.''
I looked at him shortly and in him I saw a solution only a temporary solution but better than nothing
''Hit me''
''What?''
''I said Hit me! Like those hundreds of times before''
''But-''
''Just do it for fucks sake''

POWER
I looked at my hand for a moment clenched it in triumph
Moments later I was lying there anew with that fucktard right beside me
''Are you ready to lose to me another time?''
''Not this time.'' I said grinning
I held up my right hand
Closed my eyes
Concentrated
Drove the energy from deep inside into it
As I opened my eyes again they were there.
Those deep black talon like claws My skin slowly falling off, revealing what is beneath
It was difficult to hide my agony the pain of the transformation was tormenting but I managed
I was still grinning, like a maniac and I looked at him, saw fear in his eyes
I felt amazing,
POWERFUL
''Hey, you're cheating. That ain't part of your body''
''I made it part of mine''
Then his face turned
He began grinning it felt like looking in a mirror and then I realized
This wasn't me
''That's all I wanted to hear, boy. You may pass''

Susie?? What????
????????????
i burnt my fucking arm it hurts so bad……. you know who else burnt their arm
‘Don’t move.’
Whumpee’s brows furrow as they stand in front of the wooden structure nailed to the wall. What’s whumper going to do this time?
‘Back against the wood.’
Whumpee takes a careful step backwards, hoping, if they press hard enough against it, they’ll just disappear.
‘Each time you flinch it’s another lash.’ And with that, whumper drew their knife from their pocket, and threw it.
I drew a Rabbitsaurus Rex! His name his Rolly!
