Summary
Sonic wakes up in Eggman’s base after being knocked out for who knows how long, fully prepared to kick robot butt into next week and bust his way out—but, this time, the doctor doesn’t march in with a speech about his latest evil scheme on his lips. This time, there’s no threats, no fanfare; Eggman keeps quiet hands behind his back, and a weird look sitting snug on his face.
Because he has the infamous Sonic the Hedgehog captive in his base right now, he says, but there’s a blue streak running excited circles around familiar figures just outside.
(There’s someone out there, pretending to be him, pretending to know his friends. And he doesn’t even know why.)

Summary
The thing about being a global hero whose entire schtick is running faster than the eye can see is that, well, people don’t actually see an awful lot of him. They know his name, they know what he’s done, and they recognise the iconic blue blur he leaves in his wake—but, just walking down the street, you don’t expect every single blue Mobian you see to be the one that routinely fights off giant mechs and ancient deities.
Really, how were they supposed to know who the guy actually was?
(Or: Five times Sonic invoked the Tony Hawk phenomenon, and one time someone recognised him.)

Summary
The Cyber Corruption takes a lot from him, in the end. More and more, he forgets where he’s going; what waits for him at every destination; what’s supposed to happen if he succeeds at whatever goal he’s chasing. By the time he’s tumbling from the sky like every other shooting star, he’s lost his own name.
But in the end, there’s still one thing The End can’t take from him.
(Or: Sonic the Hedgehog, and the revolutionary act of loving your friends beyond impossible odds.)
