Well, here we are. A little something to wrap up this year ^^ This piece is actually an old one. I drew it for the SonAlly Week event that used to take place on Tumblr and... I think it shows ahah! But despite the clear imperfection of it, I am very proud and I feel like it holds a special meaning to everything.

Sonic and Sally mean so much to me, not just as a couple but as characters. They are the vessels through which I discovered my favorite tropes, and through which I I could experiment and find new ways to express myself - to try out things I myself still wasn't able to.
And in a way, with every new piece, I always try to bring them some justice for the loads of infamy they (and more so Sally) had to go through during their relevant days. People... don't really like this couple. And that's ok! We don't have to all like the same things. But, oh gosh, the amount of crap and bs that some loved to throw at them was, heh, quite heavy!

But all that did was bring me to just love them harder - and I can safely say that'll never change!
When I made my InkBunny account, I didn't really have a clue of how it would go. I just knew I wanted a safespace where I could just shower these two with the mutual love I think they deserve (yes, sexy times do count too lol) but I would be lying if I said I wasn't surprised that people started watching and supporting me... because of them!
Knowing that some of my most liked works are SonAlly material makes me so happy I feel like I have accomplished something in giving them some justice!

As a small artist, you guys know how much I value your opinion, your comments and support on every piece I post. Even when I think it's not the best, even when it's not that good, you've always been there to back me up and inspire me to do better, to be the good artist I aspire to be - this is the first time in years that my experience on an art site (albeit a NSFW one) was literal fire! And it was thanks to your support <3 You guys made my last year on InkBunny an amazing, chaotic (and horny) dream! I finally felt accepted and supported and I will try my best to come out with new ideas to keep you all entertained and satisfied xP
Thank you all for an amazing year!
See you... well, next year ;D

Thank you for all the art. Love Sonally, I think it was the first ship I staned for as a kid.

Incidentally, while being NSFW, I think "Say the Word" might also be the best Sonally shipping centric fancomic to exist to date. And also the longest.

To the next year.

Thanks to you for joining in on the bandwagon! :D And omg that is... Probably one of the most beautiful thing I could ever hear! I'm so happy Say The Word reached that point, I could never have imagined people would like it so much. That really means a lot to me, thank you so so much! Here's to many more SonAlly comics :D

I'm so glad you are here to share this stuff.  I might have mentioned this in other posts but Sonic and Sally have been the couple I have been the most emotionally invested in since childhood.  I actually got issue 0 off the rack when Sally was blonde, and I knew I wanted to see them together.  In high school I became an avid reader, mainly sci-fi and fantasy, but I would always look for the most romantic couple and recast them as Sonic and Sally then recast everyone else as they related to those characters. I even read "To Kill a Mockingbird" multiple times because I had recast Sally as Scout and Sonic as Dill.  There were a ton of other changes I made but I'll spare you that.  But it brings me such joy to see all your art of Sonic and Sally being in love.  Just to know I'm not the only one keeping the torch burning for these two makes me happy.  
Also I wondered if you were aware the end music to Sonic 2 actually had lyrics.  It's an incredibly romantic song that I always picture Sonic and Sally playing out the moments it describes.  Maybe it will help give you some more inspiration.  This is the only place I could find the non-remixed English version.

I thought I was the only one doing that! Seriously, I never mentioned it because it's so hard to describe, but I would do the exact same thing that you mentioned: reading a book, watching a movie, or even playing a videogame in which the dynamics between two characters reminded me of Sonic and Sally and the others, I would always switch those characters to them in my head! I guess that's because we got so few of Sonic and Sally outside of the comics and Satam that any little thing remaining me of them left me longing for a similar dynamic (I mean, I always thought Shadow of the Colossus could have been great as a Sonic game in which he has to fight to bring Sally back from the dead - years later we got frontiers in which the story could not only work as an Archie story but even the songs remind me of them; Vandalize more than any other).
But seriously, it's incredible that someone else would do the same thing! Heck, I still do it now from time to time!
Thank you for taking the time to always comment and leave your precious advice and opinions here, it means the world to me ✨
And oh boy, I can't wait to listen to that song, I had no idea it even existed! There a re a few songs I specifically dedicated to them, kinda like a weird playlist in my mind ahah - might I had this one soon! I know it would definitely inspire me since it's so easy for me to find inspiration whenever it comes to them <3
But mostly, thank you for being here! For appreciating my art and for the beautiful words you take the time to put out. Thank you for your immense support <3

Yes, I did the video game character change as well.  The most obvious I think was Final Fantasy 7 with Sonic as Cloud and Sally as Tifa.  But I also played a lot of Goldeneye for the N64 and always recast James Bond as Sonic and Natalia as Sally.  Kind of fitting to since I think it was in issue 43 there were some Goldeneye references. Mainly Sally Sally shouting, "Stop it! You are like boys with toys!"  When she was yelling at Sonic and St. John.  I always just imagined the enemy soldiers were just carbon androids made by the Robotnik of that universe, so their molecular structure just fell apart when you shot them.
