ultrakingofbattle asked:

Could you please do a Boom prompt about after an intense battle Sonic is too exhausted (not necessarily injured) to go on adventures for at least a couple of weeks so the team finds a replacement leader (a Boom version of Gadget) that everyone welcomes with open arms but as time passes Sonic becomes worried and paranoid about this temporary substitute possibly becoming permanent?

I'll do my best!

PROMPTS ARE ON SHUTDOWN! I have the right now to simply delete your ask if you send any while they are still on shutdown! I have a few more to go, patience is a virtue, my dear Cuties! (Followers)

Prompt:

"Ow! Yikes! That hurts! Ahh…" After a painful few turns of the nurse's adjustments, Sonic relaxed on the couch and she nodded that her work was done.

"Well, he'll be good as a springy ol'dandelion in no time." The young, southern nurse wiped her hands with a few sliding claps and then turned to Sonic's team. "Ohh, but the young man will need plenty of rest. Best to not do anything too dangerous or risky for a while, I'd reckon." she began to pick up her black Doctor's purse as Tails gripped his head in panic.

"Why don't you just say 'no fun allowed' and kill us with boredom!"

"Tails, mind your manners." Amy lightly scolded before turning to the Doc, "Thank you so much for your help. We'll make sure he stays well-rested." she bent her body a bit, rubbing her hands together as she escorted the Doc out the door.

"Oh, well, thank you. What a kind young woman you are-"

She then slammed the door and her eyes widened, "What are we gonna do without Sonic!?"

Sticks also leaped up onto the couch, looking down at Sonic with her boomerang behind her, "I told you not to go stepping on tinfoil laid over a mossy bank with a pine needle pointing south to southwest!"

"What does that even mean?" Sonic groaned, leaning his head up. "It's over. We can't disband the team, but that also means we can't go adventuring till I heal from this mess…" he flopped his head back into the pillow of Amy's couch, as the rest of the gang looked to one another, not sure how to break it to him.

"Weeeeellll…." Amy began, as Tails took over.

"It's not like we have to have you in order to have fun…"

"Hey! No, no, no! This sound like a mutiny! Traitors! Every last one of ya!" Sonic, currently laying on his stomach, tried to turn around and shake his fist at them, but something in his back popped unexpectantly. "Yeouch..!" he froze in place before Sticks suddenly grabbed him and kicked him back into place with her foot, letting once again another howl escape from Sonic's mouth.

"Hmm… I know! We'll put an ad up!" Knuckles brought out a wrinkly newspaper and straightened it out with a quick whip of its long pages. "I might not know how to read, but thankfully, the job section has big pretty pictures to show you what they want from ya!"

He showed the gang, but Amy tilted her head, "Knuckles, these are for buying old or used items."

"Oh, guess I'm color-blind."

"What? It's in black and white!" Tails gestured.

"Oh, guess I can read between the lines then."

He folded the paper as the two just stared, but Amy sighed and continued, "Maybe Knuckles has a point."

"He does!?" Tails turned incredulously over to Amy.

"No, no. Not like that. I mean about posting an ad. Just… a temporary replacement leader so we all have a sense of direction on how to have the most dangerous amount of fun as possible." She jumped and held her hands in a fighting stance, leaping to her coffee table and then carefully dismounting with one foot fall at a time, she then held a cute stance.

"Huh, you may be on to something Knuckles." Tails scratched his chin, as Sticks continued to perform a weird chiropractic catastrophy while they weren't looking, forming Sonic's limps and twisting his cartoonish body into a work of art…

"I'm game. As long as I can help my friends." She suddenly nudged him and his whole body contorted back into his original structure.

"Ouch…" He muttered, muffled by the pillow.

It wasn't long before a silent but resourceful 'replacement hero' joined the team. Named "Gadget" lovingly by the team for his kind and helpful spirit but amazing tools, they set out and had a ton of fun together. Not only doing dangerous feats and stunts but also taking on Eggman.

Sonic, watching the news, noticed everyone having fun and pulled himself off the couch, jealousy and worry about being replaced motivating him to do something about it.

Tails fell by Gadget's side, "Offph!" but Gadget bent down and helped him up, giving him a thumbs up and fist bump. "Alright, you're the best buddy to have onboard, Gadget!"

Sonic, still a bit hurt, suddenly made a face like his heart was spiked and growled, racing by the two. "He's still my best friend!" He grabbed Tails and ran off to find the others.

Gadget, shrugging, ziplined over to Knuckles and took out a few robots on the way as he knocked into them. "Hey, that was awesome!" Knuckles cheered, also giving a fist bump to him and thumbs up. "You're one cool dude, Gadget!"

"I'm still the coolest!" Sonic zoomed into Knuckles, now carrying him along for the ride as well as Knuckles let out a 'Ye-Ohffph!' as he was rammed into.

Gadget looked a bit confused but swung down on his line to Amy which had hooked right beside her. He took her hand and she threw her hammer to have the building collapse on the robots that were trapping her from below.

She looked up to him, her eyes shining as Gadget winked to her.

When he put her down, he went for a fist bump which she giggled at and gave shyly back. "My hero~"

"Still you're only hero!" Sonic, right on cue, also raced into her as Gadget scratched his head before Sticks hopped down and gave him a hug from behind.

"Aww~ Does this mean you're all mine?"

There was a moment where Gadget just looked to her, and the two half-expected Sonic to come out… but he didn't.

"HEY!" Sticks, offended, looked around and let go of Gadget, "You tellin' me I'm not worth being insecure over!?"

"I'm not insecure!" Sonic, like a bullet-train, finally caught up and zipped into the screen, also plucking her from her spot.

At this point, Gadget just rolled his eyes and smiled with kind eyes. He seemed to understand now.

Sonic, still looking a bit hurt, placed his friends down and heaved a bit, pushing up from his bent knees to talk to the gang.

"I can do it! I can save the day! Me! And the rest of you! Ha…Ha… My… Friends?" he was clearly not doing well, but the gang was touched by his sentiment.

"Of course we're still friends, Sonic." Tails got up and held him steady.

"Yeah, we would never forget about you." Amy also held him up from the other side.

"But… But you were all having such a fun time with Gadget… I-I-I thought…" Looking to his two friends, he seemed stunned to hear them say that.

"Now, Sonic. Just because I buy a fancy new toaster doesn't mean I want my toast any different." Knuckles patted his head, but Sonic and the gang still looked a bit confused by the metaphor.

"In other words, the big bloke is saying that just because we have a new friend now, doesn't mean we don't want the friendships we've already got." She smiled to Knuckles who looked down at her, a bit confused.

"No, I was talking about how I bought a new toaster from that newspaper ad, but all my toast comes out differently and with Sonic's face on it."

"Wait, my face is where?" Sonic was momentarily distracted but Eggman began herding all the citizens together, having a ray-gun that would brainwash them into being his mindless slaves.

Gadget came over to the gang, gesturing that the citizens needed help.

"What's that Gadget? Little Timmy fell in the well?" Tails tried to understand but Gadget shook his head.

"Hmm… Oh, I got this." Tails pulled out UT.

But because he wasn't making sound, UT was useless.

"Hmm… I guess I do kinda miss your sassy jokes and puns, Sonic." Tails turned back to Sonic who proudly took that comment as Gadget hunched forward, exhausted from the statement made.

The town was soon saved and the gang grew a bit jealous, all watching Sonic and Gadget becomes really good friends before they finally kicked him out and went back to being a team.

However, each of them did hang out with Gadget every now and then, but watch as the kettle calls the pot black!
