SONIC, EXE, AH..YES, (turns my chair around to reveal me, patrick,sitting, leg crossed one over the other, with my hands doing that evil villain thing with the fingertips touching but not the palms)
now, this might seem absurd, and it is absurd and very confusing even to me why i like this sort of thing so much, but iv been totally obsessed with sonic.exe as a concept and character for a good 2 years now.
believe it or not, its helped me through a terrible fast food job, mental illness,trauma, family issues, relationship issues, and general stress so much that its become such a big part of my everything
The original creepypasta is laughably silly, but the community that bound together to write new concepts, stories, and create new characters have created whole worlds of fanverses and characters all that share common concepts and themes, but are different in their personalities and motivations.
to be able to disconect from my day to day stresses and imagine all of these stories and universes and concepts and expand them with my own ideas and art and feelings, it takes me away from alot of my real life stress and has been such a fun creative outlet for me for the past years, and has helped me so so much, the various characters have grown to mean so much to me.
some have of course meant alot more to me than others, the original sonic.exe and lord x are both comfort characters for me that i think about nearly all the time and i love imagining stories and things about them and they make me so so happy.
being part of this fictional worlds community has meant the world to me and has helped me want to live sometimes when i didnt feel like their was anything else to live for. I really enjoy all the things people make and do and i love reading and seeing what other people come up with, it really shows how something silly and small can still positively impact people when you share it with the world
I really do love them with all my heart, and i think they will be part of my heart forever and it has meant the world and more to me, even if its totally cringey
