What better place to cast a spell than by a moonlit lake?
guys... what if he was- y'know, a creep AND a weirdo ANyway I'm choosing to believe that one-off comment he made in the first movie about being bullied as a kid is actually a fundamental part of what shaped his philosophies and attitudes towards other people
You know what? Screw you! *jayviks your stobotnik*
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY 🥚🪨 ❤️
I wanted to post something cute af today BUT IM NOT FINISHED YET so here's a WIP
THESE SCENES THAT WERE DELETED FROM THE MOVIE BRO like are you kidding we were literally robbed ⁉️
(credits to @kerbubbles and @starburstsobsessions for bouncing ideas around with me in the stob server!!!)
Ivo Robotnik, not having been born into royalty and seemingly appearing out of nowhere with no records or found knowledge of his existence, becomes emperor just with his high IQ and steampunk inventions. Guard Stone, who was serving the previous ruler, upon meeting Ivo Robotnik and witnessing what his inventions can do, immediately becomes enamoured and switches up/potentially assists Ivo in his takeover.
Guard Stone is present when Ivo is showing off his creations to the current Emperor maybe(?) and whilst the Emperor sees Robotnik’s inventions as a potential threat, Stone is just stood there in awe at what he’s seeing in front of him. However, the Emperor rejects Robotnik’s offer to “partner” up or something which Ivo very clearly gets annoyed and potentially aggressive over so Stone, breaking out of trance, thinks quickly on his feet and snaps into action, offering to escort Robotnik off the premises but actually just wanting to get a chance to talk to him on his own. Whilst Stone is doing so he starts up a conversation with Ivo, about how brilliant his creations are and how wrong the Emperor is for rejecting them, to which Ivo is at first cautious about what this random guard (in his eyes) intentions are, but as the conversation goes on he himself becomes slightly intrigued in the potential of having this Guard on his side is and a direct line to the throne/Emperor.
They have secret meetings to scheme, which includes Stone relaying information to Robotnik about events the Emperor will be partaking in, business meetings, socials etc, and him coming up with plans to bring the Emperor’s reputation down, whilst boosting his own reputation in the process.
In the kingdom, between the other guards, there is a rumour going around that Guard Stone has “found himself a lover” because of the occasional sightings of him seen walking around the palace/kingdom at very early or very late hours.
After some time goes by, Stone sneakily starts suggesting places to meet-up that can be considered romantic, but whilst Ivo’s IQ is incredible, he is too busy coming up with their next scheme to notice.
Something something they’ve taken over me life. Have an art dump several months in the making 🪨🥚
