The Pickle Jar Conundrum
Is 'Wholesome Sonic and Tails Wednesday' still a thing? I've seen posts around on Tumblr and wanted to give it a shot! So take my goofy oneshot that showcases their sibling bond - hope you enjoy! :)
------
Sonic's ears perked up as he walked past the kitchen - hearing the small grunts of effort coming from the room. He stepped back and peered his head around the entrance curiously, and saw Tails standing in front of the counter. He was trying his absolute best to twist off the lid of a pickle jar, but to no avail. He'd evidently been at it for a while if his red cheeks were any indication.
"Hey there, bud!" Sonic waved cheerily as he decided to enter the kitchen. "You need any help with that?" He asked, pointing to the jar.
Tails didn't respond right away, taking one last attempt at pulling the lid off. When that failed, he sighed and nodded. "Hey, Sonic... yeah, I could do with some help-" he admitted, setting the jar down on the counter and then rubbing the back of his head sheepishly.
"No problemo!" Sonic smirked, reaching out and grabbing the pickle jar. "Always a pleasure." That was indeed true, as Sonic secretly relished in the opportunies he had to help out the young fox. Often, Tails was often the one carrying the team with his clever schemes and vast knowledge of tech, so it was nice when Sonic had the opportunity to help him for once - to actually be the big brother that Tails referred to him as.
It was supposed to have been simple - just a measly jar of pickles. Sonic twisted his hand to pop off the lid, but it didn't move an inch.
"Uh, gimme a sec here-" Sonic quickly excused himself, setting the jar on the counter top to steady his grip on the jar. After another session of pulling and twisting - still nothing moved. All he got after his hard work was throbbing hand muscles.
"Huh." Sonic said, taking a moment to stop and stare at the jar. "Why do they make them so tight? Don't they want us to actually eat the pickles?"
Tails had been watching on, blinking in bewilderment as even his friend was having difficulties. "If your hand is aching, use a cloth to help you get a better grip on it." Tails suggested.
"Good thinking." Sonic nodded, reaching out for the dish cloth that hung over the oven door handle. He placed the cloth over the jar of pickles, making the lid much softer and easier to grab a hold of. Certain that there was no way this could fail, Sonic made one last heave.
It did not budge.
"Ugh! Come on, seriously?!" Sonic exclaimed in frustration, letting go of the glass jar and pouting at it. He then shifted his gaze to Tails. "Do you need these right now?" He asked him to make certain.
Tails averted his gaze, but slowly nodded - tapping the ends of his index fingers together. "I wanted a pickle sandwich..."
Sonic narrowed his eyes. "A pickle sandwich...? So like - only pickles?"
Tails nodded.
"Weirdo."
The fox huffed indignanltly. "You can't judge me! You eat chili dogs for breakfast!"
"So what if I do?" Sonic asked, getting defensive. "It has a bun, doesn't it? That's bread - so it's basically toast! That's a breakfast food!"
Tails facepalmed, groaning into his hand. "You did not just compare chili dogs to toast..." Once he got over Sonic's baffling statement, he saw Sonic was pulling so hard on the lid to the point his arms were trembling, and the hedgehog was gritting his teeth.
"It's alright, Sonic." Tails said. "I'll just have something else, we have plenty of other stuff in the fridge-"
"Nope." Sonic shook his head. "If my little bro wants pickles, he's getting pickles." He spoke with a firm conviction. "I'll just use a knife to break the seal-" Sonic said, reaching into one of the drawers and taking out a sharp cutting knife.
Tails' eyes widened in alarm. "Woah, woah!" He waved his hands. "You'll cut yourself with that! Use a butter knife instead." The fox told him, grabbing the butter knife for him and placing it in front of the hedgehog.
"Alright, alright." Sonic placed the cutting knife down, grabbing the blunter knife that Tails wished for him to use. "If it makes ya feel better..."
"It's basic knife safety..."
"Boriiiing." Sonic remarked, causing Tails to fold his arms - giving a disappointed but amused look towards the hedgehog. Sonic tried placing the blade of the knife between the lid and the jar, twisting it around and trying to at last wedge the lid out of place.
His efforts were frutiless.
"Man! This has to be a prank..." Sonic frowned, contemplating what they could try next.
"Hello!"
Both of their heads turned to see Amy standing at the entrance, smiling, a bag hanging over her shoulder. "Sorry for interrupting! Just wanted to let you know I'm off to drop off some cakes for Vanilla... - Oh! Are you guys having trouble with that?" Amy asked, tilting her head towards the jar. "Let me try!"
Sonic shrugged, picking it up and handing it over. "It's being a real pain in the neck, don't be too bothered if you can't-"
Pop.
With one effortless twist, Amy had made the lid come clean off.
"There you go." She beamed, placing the open jar in Sonic's hand.
He stared at it blankly.
"Oh, wow- uh, thanks, Amy." Tails smiled gratefully, although still in a bit of disbelief.
"Don't mention it!" She giggled. "See you guys later, okay? I won't be gone long." She told them, swiftly making her exit from the kitchen as she hummed to herself merrily.
Sonic and Tails exchanged a stunned glance.
Tails broke first, letting out a giggle - and Sonic was quick to follow with his own snickers.
If there was one thing they had learnt today - it was that they should ask Amy for help opening tightly sealed jars in the future...

Tucking his lil bro in
Tumblr media
Tails would demand a bedtime story but the "bedtime story" is actually one of his quantum nerd physics textbooks or something and Sonic sighs in desperation. They compromise and he reads Tails a picture book with birdies on it 😁

Hi!! Firstly, I LOVE your Tangled AU, so glad to see Tails getting more focus in AU’s. I wondering: Do you have any general Tails related headcannons?
Hiya! 💛✨ Thank you so, so much! And ooo this is such a fun question. Tbh, I have too many, I could write an essay! This account isn’t as popular as my au blog since I’m pretty inactive on it so probably only like 3 people will see this… but I hope those hypothetical 3 people enjoy my inevitable waffle and chaos! <3
Will also use this opportunity to hype up some friends and people who’s work I admire!!!
A few of my favourite Tails Headcannons! :
- I love the idea that him and Sonic were 4 and 11 when they first met.
- Sonic will always be Tails’ big brother first and foremost… however, as Aosth Tails put it: “You’re my mom, you’re my dad and you’re my picket fence!”. Sonic having accidentally become the closest thing Tails has to a parental figure has a hold on my heart and I love how writers like @chaoxfix and my homie @myyla-x portray this in their fics!
- After having first met (and honestly even a few years in) if Sonic ever had to leave Tails alone for a while for whatever reason, maybe to protect him from a particular battle, Tails would deal with hardcore abandonment issues. Poor lil guy would fear Sonic wouldn’t come back, that he didn’t want him around anymore (which is made 10 times worse if you headcannon he was abandoned by his parents). Lil guy wouldn’t know what to do with himself <\3
- Tails reminds Shadow of Maria. Probably my favourite Tails headcannon! Though I guess it’s more of a Shadow headcannon… am I using this as an excuse to talk about it? More likely then you’d think. But ahh, those blue eyes, yellowish fur, sweet gentle childlike wonder, love of life and learning + Ian flynn has confirmed given her upbringing Maria was prob a bit of a science kid. Ah <3 Plus that brings the idea of Sonic and Tails’ dynamic reminding him of his with Maria’s and that makes me want to cry. I actually have a WIP fic about this headcannon but it’s been a wip for like a year… hopefully one day I’ll finish it cause I’m literally obsessed with the idea and want to see it through.
^ Also extra nostalgic about this headcannon cause my friendship with @sh-0-w-1-sh literally started cause they were looking for art ideas and I was like TAILS REMINDING SHADOW OF MARIA!!! And here we are almost a year later!
- For better or for worse he’s picked up a lot of his big bros traits. I’m talking puns, poses, that lil nose rub and foot tapping, occasional cockiness, being self sacrificial, the list goes on. Once he realises this or anyone else especially Sonic points it out, he’d probably be super embarrassed and deny it <3
Speaking of picking up habits…
- While he would definitely be scared by certain situations like this ( << the Starline issue 35 and 36 situation being a good example with other people being at risk and him not really understanding the situation or his role in it ) I think Tails would be pretty desensitised to being kidnapped or hostage situations at this point. He’d probably just find it an inconvenience more then anything or be entertained by the hypothetical villains incompetence. Me and @myyla-x had a conversation about this idea once and… it’s been like 6 months and we’re still talking about it. One day that’ll make sense. We got a lil carried away. Just a lil. Anyway someone get this kid therapy. <3
- An already pretty popular one but I felt the need to mention it cause I relate, but he gets so sucked into projects and his inventions that hours and hours can go by and he just zones out and forgot to eat… well, anything but mints at least.
- Tails is a theatre kid. :D Is this self projection? … maybe. If nobody else gets me @guiltypandas gets me <3 :,)
- I think Tails would be in denial if Sonic died. As smart and logical as that little guy is, given how Sonic has beat the unbeatable, has come back before and seems invisible… yeah. <\3 I think he’d always hold onto the hope that it would only be a matter of time until Sonic comes back… even if this time that wouldn’t be the case… my friend @whitecatindisguise actually wrote an amazing fic about this when we talked about the idea called He’s (Not) Coming Back (which if you haven’t already you should totally check out cause it’s amazing! And a heart breaking! The best kinda fic :,) )
- I think Tails has a heart of gold…but I also think depending on certain circumstances if he hadn’t have met Sonic he could have gone down a much darker path (which I guess ended up being somewhat proven with Nine in Sonic Prime!). Me and @casperangel have screamed about this too many times then I can count and it haunts me.
- Tails is a sweetie, a cutey patooty, like an adorable little house cat… but similarly (and yet again as proven thanks to Prime!) Tails definitely has a feral side. Especially if he hasn’t gotten enough sleep or gets his mints confiscated. @dunkinbublin and @studioboner ‘s accounts are absolute goldmines when it comes to Tails multitasking being an adorable lil guy and a feral lil menace!
- Tails and Tangle have sibling energy! I mean, Tails is basically everyone’s adopted little brother, Knuckles and Amy especially, but I think him and Tangles dynamic isn’t talked about enough and I’m super glad we’ve had some sweet moments with them in the comics! @pocketscribbs is feeding the Tails and Tangle nation fr <3
This was super fun! Thank you so much again for asking and I hope you have an amazing day! And if someone actually read all of this… you’re a trooper :,) <3

Mostly by her cuteness and personality I can understand why Cream is choose as Nezuko in Sonic x Demon Slayer crossovers
But if he think about the bond the brother - sister bond Tanjiro and Nezuko have and show in the anime I can’t help but think Tails is better to take her role. 
I mean yeah Nezuko is cute and powerfull but she’s also Tanjiro’s little sister, all he has left of his family, they both care for each other, protect the other and can yo apeshit if the other is hurt (evidence: watch the anime there’s a lot of evidence shown). 
I don’t say that Cream can’t do that too, but what they show of Tanjirou and Nezuko’s bond give me feels of Tails and Sonic’s bond. 
(This is only an opinion, if this make you feel offended then I’m sorry).

✨🦔☺️🧸!!!! ^^
✨ - Dream Sonic game
Honestly I'd love to go back to the Sonic Adventure 2 format, i.e multiple characters with certain characters sharing playstyles. I love games with multiple playable characters but Adventure 1 was a bit too messy with each character having their own playstyle, sharing playstyles helps it stay focused. Also if they combined that with the open world approach of Frontiers, I think that could be pretty special, especially the way the characters could access different areas due to their abilities.
🦔 - Favourite version of Sonic (the character)
Honestly, the version of him from "The dark age" which is basically 2005-2009 because the games coming out then weren't the best and some of them had darker subjects in their stories. But Sonic as a character was written so well in those games, like in 06, Secret Rings and Black Knight, he tried to keep his female companions smiling, in Secret Rings he tells Shahra it's okay to cry and to take as much time as she needs to let it all out, in Black Knight he tells Merlina that sure death's scary but that's just all the more reason to enjoy life while you can, Unleashed in general was just Sonic at his best in multiple ways. He was just so sweet in this era but he still had his usual cockiness to him and was cheeky in an endearing way.
But I also have to give a shout-out to Frontiers Sonic because he was literally just this "dark age" Sonic but with an added maturity to him and it really built up this big brother feeling to his character.
😊 - Favourite friendship/platonic relationship
I mean, it pretty much has to be Sonic and Tails, right? They're brothers, your honour. And honest to god, Frontiers made me so happy with their interactions. Like I said, the characters feel older in this game and that gave me the feeling of Sonic being in, like, his very early twenties and Tails in his early teens so he's reaching that age where he realises that Sonic's not the super cool guy he looked up to. He's still cool and still a great guy, it's just he's also kinda a dork as well. And Tails has that kinda feel where he's starting to throw a little bit of Sonic's sass back at him, i.e
"Are you saying I outpaced you?"
"Yeah, don't push it"
It feels like a really genuine sibling relationship and it's so sweet to watch.
🧸 - Favourite plush/piece of merch
I don't have any pieces of merch and I don't really pay attention to them because I know I won't be able to afford them (Well, the good quality stuff anyway). But when I was a kid, I had a Knuckles plushie that I adored but unfortunately he got lost when we moved...

Hell Hath No Fury Like A Hedgehog Scorned
Here, have a short snippet from chapter one of my Sonic Au. I've not written in a good while so slightly anxious about the prospect of writing a massive grandiose story
A shiver runs down a blue body, interrupting a form exuding pure confidence. It was just a reaction to the sea of snow that the trio had just escaped from, that’s all it was.
Eggman had been quiet for a while now, far too long than the team was comfortable with. A day spent trudging through sand, oil, and snow, this was the final abandoned base that they wanted to deal with today. Fur frazzled and scorched by left over booby traps, they were ready to call it quits.
“Are you sure, Sonic?”
Emerald eyes shot down to a ruffled fox kit, worry evident on his face.
“Yeah, I’m certain bud, he’s gotta be in here, I can feel it in my spines.” The blue hero smirked, looking back into the metallic abyss that lay ahead of them.
“You know that’s not what I mean.” Tails responded, eyeing his brother.
Sonic knew.
A sigh escaped his mouth.
“I’m fine Tails, nothing has happened so far, why should now be different?”
“It’s been a long day Blue, let’s do this tomorrow after some rest.” A gruff voice suggests.
Sonic turns to the echidna currently sweeping snow off of his dreads with great white boxing gloves.
“Guys, I swear I’m fine, honest. Let’s just get through this base and we can go, if we’re lucky it won’t take long. Well with me that should happen anyway” Sonic quipped, rubbing the underside of his nose with a hooked finger.
Tails and Knuckles exchange a look.
Sonic was playing a risky game and Tails knew it. Spending years adventuring with him, Tails could read Sonic like one of his many books, he could tell things about him his older brother didn’t even know.
Sonic was certain it wouldn’t happen, but a small shiver persisted. Something felt wrong in this place, but that was even more reason to investigate, right?
Trepidation in his voice, Tails spoke. “B...but what if it does happen? What if there is something down there and you...you...” Before he could finish, a hand rested upon his shoulder.
“Hey, we have a failsafe, don’t we? We’re already here anyway, it was a pain to get to this place, we might as well check it out. Just this last one okay buddy? “ Sonic smiled warmly at him, his eyes radiating a faux confidence.
It wasn’t going to happen again.
Another glance between the fox and the echidna before Tails nodded.
“promise me you’ll rest after this and let me do your tests.” Blue eyes shining in determination at his brother.
Sonics hand swung to his chest as his posture straightened.
“I promise, Hedgehogs Honour.” He flashed a cheeky wink at his twin tailed friend.
Knuckles stepped forward, now back to his red glory.
“Alright then, if that’s settled, let’s get this over with.”

It's this time of the week again 😁 time for weekly Mind Games sneek peek, y'all.
"Let's proceed with the testimonies," Jewel spoke, her voice quiet but reaching the ends of the room without any trouble. "Miss Rose, if you may."
"Thank you, Your Honour." Amy stood up from her bench and stepped forward, assuming a professional stance. "I call in Sonic the Hedgehog."
So in it went, the pink hedgehog asking just the right questions to present Sonic as the older brother full of worry about his little one. Not that it wasn't true, and everyone present were aware of that fact. The only thing she did was amplify those feelings to better reach the jury, that's all.
As the time for Starline to ask his own questions came, Amy couldn't be more proud of the blue hedgehog. No matter how much the platypus tried, no matter how he twisted Sonic's words and hit where it hurt the most, the speedster didn't waver. Even when Starline all but implied it was indefinitely Sonic's fault Tails had had his mind swapped, the hedgehog didn't took the bait. Amy's heart went up to her throat, as she watched the speedster level Starline with a fiery gaze, before answering, his voice calm and collected.
"I might have fallen for your trap back then, but don't you dare try and put your blame on my shoulders," Sonic said, glaring at the platypus. "Your actions are your own. You could have backed out any moment. You could have not gone through with it. But you did. And it's your responsibility to take the fall for that. Not mine."
And, Chaos, if Amy's cheeks didn't turn red at how hot the hedgehog looked right then. She could have kissed him. Or at least give him a huge hug. But she collected herself quickly. She could praise him later.

sonic plays the guitar whenever he feels a little down, whenever running doesn't feel like the best choice; on rainy days or even lazy days because hedgehog heroes deserve those too. and when he plucks the chords, tails can see the tranquility that takes over his body, his expression is soft and not exaggeratedly happy or optimistic. tails can see the real sonic for a few moments, the one who doesn't wear a mask to hide his true feelings in favour of his friends, the one who accepts he can't always save the entire world, the one who knows that his "die-hard" attitude is just a fuel to keep himself going and to not give up.
sonic also knows that tails notices, but he's fine with that. he can't hide from him; of course his only family can read him like an open book. what he doesn't know is that tails is inspired by this, by how sonic allows the guitar to rip his mask off of his face, how something as simple as a musical instrument can have such an effect on a person.
so, he wants to try it out, in order to understand how sonic feels, and maybe to impress him by how naturally good he is at it. except, he isn’t. when sonic goes outside and tails claims to work on a new invention, he secretly tries to learn how to play the guitar. and it’s so hard, how does sonic make it look so easy? he can’t even play the simplest chord without it sounding like an eggman robot getting destroyed. practice makes perfect. that’s what he says to himself to keep going. yet, it doesn’t work. 
when sonic notices the lack of new inventions recently, he gets a little worried but instead of asking tails about it (since he was certain he would deny everything), he stays outside the workshop unbeknownst to tails. he’s expecting to hear something, anything that will disclose his brother’s current state. why has he been lying to him? is anyone blackmailing tails? if eggman is behind this- 
and then his ear twitches. a chord. but he isn’t familiar with that sound. and then he hears another one and he feels shivers down his spine. whatever is making these weird sounds, definitely does not know what the correct chords are. is that why tails hasn’t told him anything abt his new invention? because he hasn’t found a way to make it work correctly? he peaks from the window, careful to not be seen. 
the last thing he expects to see, is tails holding his guitar, tongue sticking out, hands struggling to find the chords. sonic’s hands fly to his mouth in an attempt to silence his surprised snort. he looks at him in awe, the sight before his eyes makes his heart warm and he is sure he will keep this memory close to his heart. and then another out of tune chord is heard and sonic can’t help but wince, still smiling at how cute tails looks when he is mad. tails grumbles, clearly frustrated and defeated, leaving the guitar on the couch as he walks away from it. 
sonic’s face softens even more. he can’t believe tails has been trying to learn how to play the guitar. he feels kinda bad that he has been failing to do so but a sudden idea completely changes his mood. he rushes to the city and when he’s back, he finds a very confused tails sitting on the couch, looking at him. tails mumbles and stutters as he tries to explain why the guitar was beside him but sonic simply walks to him, places his hand on his buddy’s shoulder and makes him stop. 
he gives him a smile. and a present. 
sonic is holding what seems like a smaller guitar. tails’ shock cannot be hidden and sonic cracks up. he explains that he overheard him trying to play the guitar. tails looks a bit flustered but his attention is focused on that thing sonic is holding; he doesn’t think he’s seen something similar before. 
“it’s a ukulele.” sonic tells him to clear his confusion. “easier to learn and to play and its sounds are beautiful too.”
tails takes it from sonic’s hands and admires the beautiful handicraft; it’s expertly made out of wood yet it feels so valuable and fragile. tails wants to object, to give this back to sonic but he already knows what his little bro is thinking of, so he pushes the ukulele back to his chest, giving him a reassuring look. 
tails knows he can’t win this one, so he sits down. he hesitates but he plays a chord. this time it doesn’t sound bad at all! sonic seems more excited than he himself is, so he keeps on playing. 
soon the two of them spend their nights singing songs while both play their own musical instruments, accompanying one another. sonic suggests they invite their friends over once in a week to light a campfire outside and have fun while they all sing together and tails agrees wholeheartedly.
