Hey guys.

I am going to do a story for the Sonic SatAm continuity called 'A Knothole Wedding'. This will take place 3 years from where the show left off. Therefore, the characters will be older. But the question is… how old?

Well thankfully, the episodes 'Blast To The Past: Parts 1 and 2' and 'Drood Henge' have something we can go off of. In the former, we learned that Sonic and Sally were five years old at the time of Robotnik's takeover. We see Antoine, Rotor and Bunnie in the flashback about the same age as young Sonic and Sally, so the age difference can't be too big of a stretch. We also see a young Dulcy in her mother's pouch at the time of the flashback, and we can assume she is around the same age as the other five characters.

In the latter, it was stated that Sally was 16 years old in the present day. Since we know for sure that Sonic and Sally were the same age in the flashback, it's confirmed Sonic is also 16. And it's also stated for sure that Tails is 10 years old.

But, that leaves us with the ages of four more freedom fighters to figure out. (Sheesh, say that three times fast.)

I don't really know what to say or do here except guess, but I'd feel Rotor and Antoine being the oldest, 6 at the time (which would put them at 17 currently). Dulcy and Bunnie would be the youngest, at 4 (which puts them at 15 now.)

So, to recap:

Tails - 10.
Dulcy and Bunnie - 15.
Sonic and Sally - 16.
Rotor and Antoine - 17.

If we go 3 years from those ages, they will currently be:
Tails - 13.
Bunnie and Dulcy - 18.
Sonic and Sally - 19.
Rotor and Antoine - 20.

Ok, now, other characters besides the SatAm ones will be in these stories. I can barely keep up with all these characters popping out of nowhere, so I just pick and choose which ones will be in my canon (Some major roles in the story, some just cameos). Cream, Vanilla, (who are Bunnie's cousin and aunt respectively), Cheese and Chocola the Chao, Amy Rose, Sonia, Manic, Aleena, Knuckles, Vector, Espio, Mighty, Ray, Charmy, Shadow, Rouge, Blaze, Silver, Marine, Cosmo, Tikal, Jet, Wave and Honey.

Vanilla's, Aleena's and the Chao's ages won't be too much of an issue, but everyone else's I need to figure out before going on.

Since Tails had an age bump in the SatAm series (He's 8 years old in the games, while 10 in this series), I'll do the same with Cream as well. Cream's 6 years old in the games and in most media spinning off from this, but she will be 8 at the time of seasons 1-2 of the SatAm series, which puts her at 11 years old at the time of the story I'll be writing.

Amy, I'll keep the same as she always is. She's 12 at the time of seasons 1-2 of the SamAm series, three years later puts her at 15.

In the comics, it is stated Knuckles' age was 17, which will be the age between the series 1-2 seasons. In this story, he will be 20.

Vector's age is 20 in the games, so three years from then would make him 23.

Espio, Honey and Mighty are 16 in the games and most media, so three years from then would make them all 19.

Ray's age is difficult to determined, but, as he is 10 years old physically, let's go with that. Three years from then would put him right next to Tails at 13.

Charmy is the youngest of the team, being 6. Add three years and he would be 9.

Shadow is physically 18 years old, so, three years from then, he would be 21.

Rouge and Wave are also 18, so, she would be 21 in three years from the series.

Blaze, Jet and Silver are all 14, so they will be 17 in this story.

Tikal is physically 14 also (so I'm going with that,) so she will be 17 as well.

Marine is 7 years old, three years later, she will be 10.

Cosmo will be 11 years old at the time of this story, as three years prior, she would be 8.

Sonia and Manic are Sonic's triplet siblings, so that would put them at the same age as him in the current day, 19.

Final results:

Charmy - 9.
Marine - 10.
Cream and Cosmo - 11.
Tails and Ray - 13.
Amy - 15.
Blaze, Silver, Tikal and Jet - 17.
Bunnie and Dulcy - 18.
Sally, Sonic, Espio, Mighty, Honey, Sonia and Manic. - 19.
Rotor, Antoine and Knuckles - 20.
Shadow, Wave and Rouge- 21.
Vector - 23.

Other changes will be this (also will be present if I do more then a one off story).

From the Archie comics, some elements from both the original and reboot will be tossed in, maybe a few game elements, as well as minor elements from 'Sonic Underground' [Sonia and Knuckles being a couple, for instance].

Aleena is a former queen of a kingdom that has previously been destroyed by Robotnik, but the triplets are unaware of their royal heritage.

Both Uncle Chuck and Bunnie have been deroboticsed for good, and Sally's father is finally released from the void.

The Freedom Fighters and their allies are very close to dethroning Robotnik and his evil team. Once they do, Sonic and Sally will rise as the new king and queen of a restored Mobotroplis.

Right. Now that's done, my story will be in the works.
