#i'm thinking of sonic rivals 2 where he's sent to investigate Silver but ends up helping him instead

My favorite headcanon about Espio is that the main Sonic cast sees him as this cool, mysterious ninja that's super disciplined and stoic and agile and everything. But then his ninja tribe or whatever back home is like, "Espio? He's a complete mess. He's always so emotional and gets sidetracked too easily and is overall just mid at ninja-ing. Like, did you hear that he's working at some hole-in-the-wall detective agency? Yeah, and he actually thinks of his coworkers as his family and is helping raise a five-year-old. How undisciplined can you get?"

#Espio over here living his best life with his found family and does not need that negativity #i'm thinking of sonic rivals 2 where he's sent to investigate Silver but ends up helping him instead #like yeah he's a ninja but he's also a softie #also this is great for giving him a perfectionist mindset in fics #cuz its always fun to write characters who don't ever feel like they're good enough #don't worry though vector's helping him get over it #espio the chameleon #the chaotix #sonic headcanon
