MISTIERS: Shay Caron TITLE: Two Shades of Sally, by Adrian Tymes and Alessandro Sanasi CHARACTERS: Mike & the bots, Pearl & the troop SUMMARY: If I recall correctly, Packbell is setting up a space station to dump lava on the Great Forest. Sonic and Sally, naturally, go up into space and TP the satellite, or something. (I'm not too clear on any of that; I tried to put it out of my mind once I finished it) Now we approach, with much trepidation and not a small amount of fear, the main fractured feature. If I recall correctly, Packbell is setting up a space station to dump lava on the Great Forest, or something to that extent. Sonic and Sally, naturally, go up into space, with the help of Knuckles, and TP the satellite, or something like that. Then they come back down, and Sally dies, so Sonic's in mourning, and then Amy Rose apparently goes to Knuckles' place and does something, and then Sally comes back, and the Freedom Fighters go to Robotropolis for some reason, and Sally almost dies, but Tails goes to Knuckles' island again, and he finds another Sally, and we learn that the Sally we thought was Sally is actually Amy, and everyone's happy. Also, the authors spell "echidna" as "echnida". Understand? Good. Explain it to me. SHORTS: "fanfic of Ray Rabbit" CATAGORIES: Sonic the Hedgehog HOST SEGMENTS: Introduction Crow prepares a fiendish plan to--what else?--scare the wits out of Tom Servo. It involves a fake mustache and the Swedish Chef from the Muppet Show. Mike wants to help; can you blame him? Segment One The plan goes well; Crow & Mike scare Tom, and Mike scares Crow. Meanwhile, the VW is packed full of frightening fish. Segment Two A quick discussion of the upcoming fanfic. Pearl thwaps Brain Guy. Segment Three Crow & Tom do the "Good Thing/Bad Thing" thing on what they've seen so far for a piece of RAM-cake. Yummy. Segment Four Crow's mad 'cause Mike said he's obsessed with lewdness. The author shows up, has some tea with Mike, and eventually makes Pearl, Bobo, and Observer watch the fanfic. Segment Five M&TB watch as Pearl tries to get rid of the fish. Her plan fails, and we see why Brain Guy's got such a headache. Tom sums it up best: "That was pointless." Segment Six Why did they ever write this fanfic?! Good old Mike Nelson has the answer. Crow beats up some fish and demands 15 dollars from Servo. Hilarity ensues. Bobo snacks on the space salmon, and Clive pushes the button. Stinger Well, when taken out of context (and in context, for that matter), the impression we get from these three sentences is that Amy Rose is sleeping with Tails. I nearly lost my lunch upon reading it. REFLECTIONS: Actually, as StH fanfics go, "Two Shades of Sally" wasn't that bad. The S&G (spelling and grammar) was tolerable, and it actually had some semblance of a plot. Still, I'm thankful to be done with it. Of course, now that I'm done with this, I need to start Blood and Metal... a David Gonterman StH fanfic... someone just kill me now. CHRONOLOGICAL NOTES: [none] RECOMMENDED READING: [none]
