Artists New To Tumblr...

When Im in a "murdering my silly blue friend, who turned into a robot that one time" competiton and my opponent is Espio.

I would love to read what you THINK this edit is about, but I will just tell you anyway. Valdez the chameleon was Espios mentor and friend, but when he was roboticized and threatened to harm every other chameleon, Espio ended his life. Now, when he was tricked into killing Sonic, what do you think he was thinking about? How he has killed another friend? How Eggman caused this again? How he must just be destined to hurt others? You decide. Let me tell you though, they werent good thoughts. Something something Valdez was his mentor something something Sonic reminds him of him something something survivors guilt also general dislike as defense mechanism idk. Figure it out.

Also if the rest of the caption didn’t clue you in, this relates to my TMOSTH au. You know, the one Ive been editing for months. The whole blowdart being lethal thing, where he (almost) kills Sonic with it and the trains Ai forces him to keep pretending its part of the murder mystery. And the whole 'Sonic and Espio are friends but theres some upset feelings there' thing? Yeah. That. Doesnt matter though its entirely canon compliant. (I did in fact edit those Valdez sprites and even redrew a panel from the comic because I hate how the artist draws Chameleons I am so annoying.)

OKAY PEOPLE. So, I love flowers. Flower symbolism especially. So, doing some somewhat legitimate research, I decided to see dig deeper into the flowerbeds of mystery that is Welcome Home, to see if I can uncover any symbolism.

I’ll be using the flowers from the picture below, thank you. And of course, credit to @partycoffin btw check them out they’re incredible

Let’s start with this lovely flower

By my guess, it seems to be a daffodil of some kind? The closest flower I can get currently.

Now, daffodils symbolize rebirth and new beginnings in many definitions. White daffodils tend to hold a desire to be transformed and move away from selfishness. They are also known as Narcissus, who in many stories was a man obsessed with his beauty and eventually turned into the flower when he perished.

Next flower!

Not gonna lie, there are many flowers that this could be. I’ll give my best guess, of course.

First, Gerbera Daisy. Egyptians believed they symbolized a closeness to nature and devotion to the sun. In general, they usually symbolize innocence, purity, cheerfulness, all that jazz. It looks very similar to daisies in general, what with the dark center and the formation of the petals.

Second, Black eyed Susans, or Coneflower. They tend to be a symbol of encouragement and a symbol of adaptability in some definitions. Supposedly, it’s also a symbol of Justice? But I can’t currently verify that. The petals and dark center again line up well.

Now for the last one

Now, I have two more guesses for this one.

Rose. Now, warm colored roses hold a meaning of affection and warmth when gifted to a friend. Roses in general tend to symbolize desire and love, of course.

Carnation. Now, Carnations also symbolize a form of love, but also mean fascination and distinction. It’s seen as the official flower for Mother’s Day, given the meaning behind it with the Virgin Mary. It’s colors have different meanings, all in some form or another in relation to love.

Of course, this is all mostly just my ramblings and not really any theory stuff. I just like trying to analyze things I find interesting! Do with this information what you will and fact check it because I am NOT a professional in the slightest.

I made another!!! Fun fact, he is very very squishy and fluffy and I love him so much

I, for one, need more Starfox content (my name for Staroba). I need it injected into my blood. Bonus points if they adopted Clover.

You and me both. Staroba marrying and raising Clover as their adopted child is what's currently consuming my brain right now.

I like to think they sometimes all take naps together. Not always, since Clover is old enough to sleep on their own, but they like the experience of feeling safe between their parents.

since clover is starlo's kid, how does solomon and crestina feel about being grandparents and how does orion feel about being an uncle?

Oh, Starlo's parents absolutely adore Clover, no questions asked. They don't mind at all that Clover is a human! That's their son's child, and thus, that makes Clover their grandchild. Clover is absolutely spoiled by them and they love whenever Starlo brings them over to visit. Clover has lots of sleepovers at the farm house growing up! Having grandparents is something they've never experienced before on the surface, but they adore their new grandpa and grandma.

I HC that Crestina and Solomon (based on Crestina's dialogue if you speak to her in their farm house) were kind of nudging their sons to settle down with a spouse/kids. They weren't too harsh or pushy about it, but you know Starlo gets a few comments over it from his mother. The fact that they're so relieved to finally have a grandchild is a little embarrassing for Starlo.

Orion acts disinterested at first. He doesn't really want to get involved with being an uncle when he already has farm work to deal with. But despite that, he warms up to Clover really quickly (partially because Starlo threatens to kick his ass if his brother is mean to his kid). Even if he doesn't show it that often, he really likes having a nibling. He tells Clover all of Starlo's embarrassing teen stories to get back at his brother, and Clover is one of the few people he truly enjoys the company of. I imagine they get even closer when Clover's older.

So overall, Clover's absolutely been accepted and adopted into the Sunnyside family! They love Starlo's funny little human baby.

I put the sillies to digital :)

Has anyone done this yet?

Do They Know?

Cool down doodle from last night. I think the greatest tragedy with older!Clover is they probably grow to about 6'1. But because their family is mostly giant monsters, they assume they're short.
