Canonically Lilacs ear pieces are hearing aids, as her own ears suffer from a genetic defect rendering her hard of hearing if not deaf. With that in mind, I had this headcanon that Lilac would know sign language! And given the world of Avalice I thought itd be fitting to include a Chinese Sign Language variation of this brief phrase ^^

![[SFM] Ben Schwartz as Metal Sonic](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/tJ-e5570JJs/mqdefault.jpg "[SFM] Ben Schwartz as Metal Sonic
The connections across various media can be amazing sometimes xD Ben Schwartz voiced a sassy racing droid in a recent episode of The Bad Batch and hearing the various scenes just made way too much sense to think of him as Metal Sonic seeing as he voiced Movie Sonic. So this little idea was born, taking from some lines from the episode, though there are a couple more that Id like to do at some point. Hope you enjoy how this came out!

A small parody in reference to classic Dragon Ball! Carol basically does this exact thing to travel in Freedom Planet 2, so it made sense to me to give it the full Mercenary Tao treatment XD Special thanks to HyperTails12 who suggested a fantastic conclusion to this animation loop!

Been a while since Ive done one of these, and theyre a lot of fun to do, so since I havent been able to put anything out in a while I figure I could take break and have some fun. A little bit about this short and the world around it is these are scenarios I imagine the classics would be in if they all lived in the same world as the moderns after generations. Essentially each character takes care of his or her younger self, like Knuckles caring for his classic self. From time to time, the modern characters are called on to care for the group of classics if the others need to be away for whatever reason, so this time around Knuckles has to watch the kids so to speak. The idea behind it was pitched to me by my mom cause she wanted to give me an idea for a video, so I decided to work on this one and get it out for her to see, thanks mom!
This was also a good chance to try some new things such as the textures that were made by my friend Faina Lotea, as well as an overlay/lighting type of thing we sort of discovered, though cant really see it in this instance.

Initially this was a commission render for an anonymous user, however I liked the idea so much that I decided to make the short animation as well! I grew up watching The Simpsons a ton so I do enjoy being able to goof around with moments from it, especially one that had a meme built around for a time xD Why did Charmy do this exactly? From what I hear he wasnt in The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog so maybe he was feeling salty for being left out!

So I saw this model some time ago on DA and was pretty excited to hear it was coming to SFM. Saw it Friday on the workshop and just had to drop everything for a couple days and try something ^^ Ive seen quite a few animations of this encounter with other models, better animations XD so heres my sort of attempt with his first attack.

Originally linked to in an earlier Twitter post, though I dont like posting super short clips all that much I figured I may as well make this one public. Just a quick test animation on the new Carol model, putting it through its paces to see if there were any issues or fixes to make.
I received this model for beta testing by donating to TyrakatheDragonFans gofundme page but they have recently switched over to direct donations here https://www.deviantart.com/tyrakathedragonfan/art/Freedom-Planet-2-Megapack-for-Source-WIP-Project-878122073 details are posted there.
