and gotten himself captured by the nefarious Doctor Robotnik.\n\n[center]~~~[/center]\n\nThe Badniks had snatched him from the battle during Robotnik’s latest scheme. A brief moment of disorientation after getting caught too close to an enemy blast was all it took. His wrists and ankles were cuffed by the animals-in-machines in the split second his guard was down, and a quick application of one of the wicked Doctor’s mind-numbing devices stilled his struggles and sent him into a deep sleep.\n\nWhen Tails woke again he was in a capsule[url=http://sonic.wikia.com/wiki/Capsule]¹[/url]. One of Robotnik’s hypno-beams focused on his forehead robbed him of all concerns and motivations. The pulsing green ray keeping him docile and blank as it filled his mind with all the ‘right’ thoughts\n\nThe hum he felt through the deck plate told him that the Capsule was in motion somehow. The urgency and fear he should have felt was buried under what felt like a mountain of cotton wool smothering his emotions.\n\n“It doesn’t matter,” the emblem on his forehead helped Tails to realise outloud. “Wherever we’re going will have facilities for handling kits like me.”\n\nHearing his voice dully say those words—so similar to words the hero had heard from other victims of Robotnik—was almost enough to break through the control. His eyes widened and he started to struggle.\n\n“No,” he panted; gasping as he tried to get his thoughts out through the fog in his head. “No! I– I’m not [i]urgh[/i] like that– I don’t [i]need[/i] facilities t– to handle kits like me! There’s [i]uhhhhgn[/i]”\n\nThe emblem glowed more brilliantly as the power to the hypno beam was increased to counter the kit’s rebellion. Tails-under-the-hypno-beam realised he didn’t like thinking about what kind of kit he was; he felt [i]shame[/i] when he thought about what kind of kit he was.\n\n“I– I need to… stop throwing a tantrum like some little brat.” The words spilt so easily from his lips. After all, he [i]was[/i] behaving badly; making a fuss and being a disobedient, spoilt, little, know-it-all cub.\n\n“Why do I always think I know it all?” The beam had put the question into his mind as he settled back down, adding just the right measures of shame and introspectiveness to make him ponder on the lesson. “I really need to get over myself and learn to behave better,” Tails finally decided; his voice almost empty of emotion once more.\n\nThat was the end of Tails’ resistance for a while. The capsule was small and dull. None of the other occupants were any more alert than Tails was. The long stretches of silence were only broken by the entranced prisoners muttering uninteresting realisations to themselves. Without anything to focus on Tails started to slip in and out of awareness, drifting off into a timeless, disinterested trance state.\n\nOver long hours the capsule fed new ideas into Tails’ mind via the emblem shining on his forehead. Taking advantage of the kit’s stupor to plant more doubts and more ‘alternate points of view’ into his subconscious mind; always adding a hint of emotion around the edges of the thoughts it implanted to help them integrate faster. A little shame here, some embarrassment there, curiosity in abundance and, of course, arousal [i]everywhere[/i].\n\nWhen the capsule was finally popped open by Robotnik’s loyal henchmen it was a very different Tails who emerged into the chaos of the Badnik factory with a lil’ half chubby swaying in front of him. Tails blinked sleepily as he was hit full in the face by the factory’s climate. He looked around blankly as the henchmen chivvied them out of the pod and into a line.\n\nThe factory was cavernous, conveyors and gantries ran everywhere. What didn’t reek of oil smelt of iron grinding on iron or had the electric tang of ozone. Machines glowed red hot giving off a heat shimmer or belched smoke into the heavens. In those angry red clouds one could just make out the silhouettes of buzz-bombers carrying supplies cross the endless factory. On the concrete beneath motobugs weaved among the ‘free’ factory workers.\n\nIt was a hellscape from horizon to horizon, but Tails looked on it with his blank eyes and a single word bubbled up from the depths of his mind. “Progress…”\n\n“Your name is Progress?” The boiler-suited, helmet-wearing badger in front of Tails asked, somewhat disbelieving.\n\n“Wha? No, it’s… Tails.” The fox answered; awakening for the first time in what felt like forever. Somehow he was at the front of the line. He could remember vaguely shuffling up the line in his hand and ankle cuffs, but it was distant, dream-like. Instinctively he reached up to rub at the spot on his forehead that had a hypno-beam shining on it no longer.\n\n“Tails, Tails… Ah, Tails… Miles ‘Tails’ Prower.” The large, adult badger skimmed his PDA. “Well, well it seems we have quite the celebrity here. I was wondering how we managed to pick up a cub as young as you.”\n\nHe pointed what looked like a ‘laser pen’ at the kit’s ankle restraints and they unclasped to be collected by a motobug that was puttering in neutral nearby.\n\n“I… need to learn how to… not be a disobedient, meddling, little brat.” Tails said uncertainly. That [i]was[/i] right wasn’t it? It seemed so obvious, yet something nagged at the back of his mind.\n\nThe badger laughed and put a heavy paw on the kit’s shoulder. “Is that so?” He asked as he marvelled at the effectiveness of the hypnotic program designed specifically to keep this one, high-value freedom fighter under control. “Walk this way.” The badger started walking; pushing the confused and vulnerable kit in front of him.\n\n“I’m rebellious… head-strong.” Tails said mostly to try and convince himself of what he ‘knew’. Slowly, but surely, the hero was starting to reawaken deep inside of him and it contradicted every thought that crossed his mind. “I was told there was a facility that could make me into a good cub?” His lil’ half-chub tingled and stiffened slightly as he thought about being turned into a good cub. Who was it who had told him about the facility?\n\n“Oh, yes,” the badger gave a deep laugh. Tails didn’t like it. It sounded like he was laughing [i]at[/i] him not with him. “We have a ‘facility’ for ‘reforming’ delinquents like you.”\n\n“Oh, Ah… great.” Tails said a little uncertainly. The words were right. Weren’t they? Someone had told him to come here to be trained at a facility for ungrateful lil’ brats like him—the pleasant feeling in his stiffening member was really distracting—and apparently the facility [i]was[/i] here. He’d wanted to come; wanted the chance to reform. Hadn’t he? There was something in the badger’s tone that just wasn’t quite right.\n\n“Don’t worry, I’ll take you right there. Deliver you right to the doorstep.” He laughed again. “I know you’re a good kit deep down inside. You were just led astray by that nasty, mean Sonic weren’t you?”\n\n“Umm… Yeah.” Tails answered automatically. If that hammering, industrial noise would just quiet for a moment he could gather his thoughts. That noise… wasn’t normal was it? When he thought back he couldn’t remember any part of Möbius being like this unnatural, mechanical wasteland. What was it Sonic had said about Robotnik’s factories? Tails strained to remember; knowing it was important. The answer was on the tip of his tongue.\n\nIt was then that Tails’ last chance to fight off the brainwashing passed. If the badger had been a little meaner, if he’d taken a little more joy in tormenting the fox cub, then he might have drawn it out longer and given Tails the few, extra moments he needed to make his breakthrough and remember who he truly was, but then they arrived at the head of the Badnik assembly line: The line that Doctor Robotnik had mere hours earlier ordered cleared of all work and reassigned exclusively for converting Tails as swiftly as possible.\n\n“Well here we are.” The badger gave the fox cub a shove that sent him stumbling forward onto the conveyor, causing him to lose his train of thought as he tried to catch his balance with his paws still bound in front of him.\n\nThe badger pointed his ‘laser pen’ at a point just above Tails’ head and the kit had just enough time to look up and recognise the barrel of another hypno-beam pointing down at him from the ceiling before the glowing green beam activated and the emblem of the Eggman Empire stole all his thoughts away [i]again[/i]. The cub felt himself plummet back down [i]deep[/i] into trance.\n\nAnother laugh, but this one went right through Tails’ blank little mind without touching anything. “Now, you just stand there and let what happens happen and we’ll make an upstanding servant of the Empire out of you before you know it.”\n\nA quick gesture of the ‘pen’ and the conveyor lurched into life. The hypno-beam above followed the slightest motion of his forehead keeping the softly-pulsing emblem centred as it rolled backwards on its overhead track.\n\nAt Tails’ first stop Metalic tendrils slithered up from rings cut in the surface of the belt almost as soon as the conveyor juddered to a halt. Tails paid them no mind as he stared blankly ahead. The full force of a hypno-beam was turned on him. The emblem of the Empire shining proudly. His eyes were half lidded and a tiny strand of silvery drool hung from his open lips.\n\nThe slick, dildo-tipped tendril moved under his slowly-swaying tails, seeking out and pressing at his plump cheeks; vibrating softly and causing the blank-eyed boy to [i]moan[/i] as it slowly entered him. The pleasant sensations in his rear causing his lil’ dick to rise to full hardness and his heart to beat faster.\n\nThen the machine started to thrust. Its programming instructed it to seek out all of the helpless cub’s most erogenous spots; to seek out the spots Tails himself knew nothing of and to melt the boy’s mind using them. His cock leaked more than it ever had in his young life and his mind was left [i]fully[/i] open to the effects of the hypno-beam. Tails groaned in bliss. His breath grew heavier and his body warmer. He swayed slightly under the sensations, but somehow he remained in his spot.\n\nHe [i]could[/i] have just stepped a little to the left or right and escaped this fate at any point after being shoved onto the conveyor and left unsupervised. There was no one there to stop him from just vanishing but he was told to “just stand there,” and, with those orders the only thoughts in his head besides the ones being cemented in his subconscious, he had no desire to do anything else.\n\nAnd so the belt moved him down the assembly line from station to station with Tails standing on it at a sleepy, sort-of attention as the machines did naughty things to his vulnerable lil’ bod; never resisting; not having the will to resist as they took advantage of his entranced state to [i]permanently[/i] condition and brainwash the young freedom fighter.\n\n[center]~~~[/center]\n\nThis factory could be anywhere on Möbius. It might be in the Scrap Brain Zone or an adjunct to the Chemical Plant; maybe it’s a part of the Egg Factory or located deep under the Crystal Egg Zone.\n\nTails could be anywhere now, but one thing is certain: With so many locations to search even Sonic’s speed wont be enough to rescue his ‘best bud’ in time. He’ll never find the foxnapped kit before he surrenders fully to the Eggman Empire and becomes one of the utterly-loyal soldiers of the Badnik Army. The Blue Blur is already too late.\n\nI don’t know which incarnation of Robotnik this is, but it isn’t SatAM or Underground since there are Badniks and no Roboticizer and it’s not AoSTH, X or Boom since this Robotnik is competent. I’ve a feeling this is probably Fleetway Robotnik. Tails’ lack of notoriety would certainly suggest that, but Fleetway Tails also appears to be a lot older than eight and isn’t a prodigy so it doesn’t quite fit. It could also be Eggman from the games given some of the messed up things that have happened to Tails in [i]Sonic Colors[/i][url=https://youtu.be/UZ5YjPgfFqI]¹[/url] and [i]Sonic: Lost World[/i][url=https://youtu.be/713dEmJF_tc]¹[/url] [url=https://youtu.be/HmMjheZVX8g]²[/url]. :)\n\nSome might say I’ve written Tails out of character here, but he is hypnotised and frankly I think any incarnation of Robotnik would try and humble the kid genius with a heart of gold if he could get his claws into the cub’s head.\n\nTails is just everything Robotnik is not: his inventions are usually on par with the Doctor’s if not better; he is content with his life, and not driven by some need to conquer and expand; he is well liked by the people at large (something which most dictators desire); and finally, he is friendly, cheerful and happy. He is basically everything Doctor Robotnik could be but isn’t, and at only eight years old too. That has to burn.\n\nIt’s not like Tails doesn’t have a few cracks that Robotnik couldn’t exploit either. I’m not claiming that any particular incarnation Tails is neurotic or even lacking in confidence, but after being bullied and discounted so often [url=https://youtu.be/zqVdCFgsT3E]¹[/url] [url=https://youtu.be/3EOlByWtXiI]²[/url] [url=https://youtu.be/3czpr2G6NXM]³[/url]; well even the most chilled kid-genius might spend [i]a[/i] sleepless night feeling vaguely anxious about his self-worth. So what we’re following isn’t Tails so much as it is the Tails Robotnik wants: uncertain, deferential, ‘acting’ his age, self-conscious and soon to be a weapon turned against his former friends.\n\nWhatever the case, in my mind all of Tails’ dialogue is voiced by Colleen Villard (Tails’ current voice actor as of 2015) and it sounds awesome.\n\n[center][color=#555555]The art was commissioned from [name]HypnoFire86[/name] who was really, [i]really[/i] patient with me on this one.[/color][/center]", "description_bbcode_parsed": "It seems that Tails has finally made a mistake and gotten himself captured by the nefarious Doctor Robotnik.

Hearing his voice dully say those words—so similar to words the hero had heard from other victims of Robotnik—was almost enough to break through the control.  His eyes widened and he started to struggle.

“No,” he panted; gasping as he tried to get his thoughts out through the fog in his head.  “No!  I– I’m not urgh like that– I don’t need facilities t– to handle kits like me!  There’s uhhhhgn”

The emblem glowed more brilliantly as the power to the hypno beam was increased to counter the kit’s rebellion.  Tails-under-the-hypno-beam realised he didn’t like thinking about what kind of kit he was; he felt shame when he thought about what kind of kit he was.

“I– I need to… stop throwing a tantrum like some little brat.”  The words spilt so easily from his lips.  After all, he was behaving badly; making a fuss and being a disobedient, spoilt, little, know-it-all cub.

“Why do I always think I know it all?”  The beam had put the question into his mind as he settled back down, adding just the right measures of shame and introspectiveness to make him ponder on the lesson.  “I really need to get over myself and learn to behave better,” Tails finally decided; his voice almost empty of emotion once more.

That was the end of Tails’ resistance for a while.  The capsule was small and dull.  None of the other occupants were any more alert than Tails was.  The long stretches of silence were only broken by the entranced prisoners muttering uninteresting realisations to themselves.  Without anything to focus on Tails started to slip in and out of awareness, drifting off into a timeless, disinterested trance state.

Over long hours the capsule fed new ideas into Tails’ mind via the emblem shining on his forehead.  Taking advantage of the kit’s stupor to plant more doubts and more ‘alternate points of view’ into his subconscious mind; always adding a hint of emotion around the edges of the thoughts it implanted to help them integrate faster.  A little shame here, some embarrassment there, curiosity in abundance and, of course, arousal everywhere.

When the capsule was finally popped open by Robotnik’s loyal henchmen it was a very different Tails who emerged into the chaos of the Badnik factory with a lil’ half chubby swaying in front of him.  Tails blinked sleepily as he was hit full in the face by the factory’s climate.  He looked around blankly as the henchmen chivvied them out of the pod and into a line.

The factory was cavernous, conveyors and gantries ran everywhere.  What didn’t reek of oil smelt of iron grinding on iron or had the electric tang of ozone.  Machines glowed red hot giving off a heat shimmer or belched smoke into the heavens.  In those angry red clouds one could just make out the silhouettes of buzz-bombers carrying supplies cross the endless factory.  On the concrete beneath motobugs weaved among the ‘free’ factory workers.

It was a hellscape from horizon to horizon, but Tails looked on it with his blank eyes and a single word bubbled up from the depths of his mind.  “Progress…”

“Your name is Progress?”  The boiler-suited, helmet-wearing badger in front of Tails asked, somewhat disbelieving.

“Wha? No, it’s… Tails.”  The fox answered; awakening for the first time in what felt like forever.  Somehow he was at the front of the line.  He could remember vaguely shuffling up the line in his hand and ankle cuffs, but it was distant, dream-like.  Instinctively he reached up to rub at the spot on his forehead that had a hypno-beam shining on it no longer.

“Tails, Tails… Ah, Tails… Miles ‘Tails’ Prower.”  The large, adult badger skimmed his PDA.  “Well, well it seems we have quite the celebrity here.  I was wondering how we managed to pick up a cub as young as you.”

He pointed what looked like a ‘laser pen’ at the kit’s ankle restraints and they unclasped to be collected by a motobug that was puttering in neutral nearby.

“I… need to learn how to… not be a disobedient, meddling, little brat.”  Tails said uncertainly.  That was right wasn’t it?  It seemed so obvious, yet something nagged at the back of his mind.

The badger laughed and put a heavy paw on the kit’s shoulder.  “Is that so?”  He asked as he marvelled at the effectiveness of the hypnotic program designed specifically to keep this one, high-value freedom fighter under control.  “Walk this way.”  The badger started walking; pushing the confused and vulnerable kit in front of him.

“I’m rebellious… head-strong.”  Tails said mostly to try and convince himself of what he ‘knew’.  Slowly, but surely, the hero was starting to reawaken deep inside of him and it contradicted every thought that crossed his mind.  “I was told there was a facility that could make me into a good cub?”  His lil’ half-chub tingled and stiffened slightly as he thought about being turned into a good cub.  Who was it who had told him about the facility?

“Oh, yes,” the badger gave a deep laugh.  Tails didn’t like it.  It sounded like he was laughing at him not with him.  “We have a ‘facility’ for ‘reforming’ delinquents like you.”

“Oh, Ah… great.”  Tails said a little uncertainly.  The words were right.  Weren’t they?  Someone had told him to come here to be trained at a facility for ungrateful lil’ brats like him—the pleasant feeling in his stiffening member was really distracting—and apparently the facility was here.  He’d wanted to come; wanted the chance to reform.  Hadn’t he?  There was something in the badger’s tone that just wasn’t quite right.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take you right there.  Deliver you right to the doorstep.”  He laughed again.  “I know you’re a good kit deep down inside.  You were just led astray by that nasty, mean Sonic weren’t you?”

“Umm… Yeah.”  Tails answered automatically.  If that hammering, industrial noise would just quiet for a moment he could gather his thoughts.  That noise… wasn’t normal was it?  When he thought back he couldn’t remember any part of Möbius being like this unnatural, mechanical wasteland.  What was it Sonic had said about Robotnik’s factories?  Tails strained to remember; knowing it was important.  The answer was on the tip of his tongue.

It was then that Tails’ last chance to fight off the brainwashing passed.  If the badger had been a little meaner, if he’d taken a little more joy in tormenting the fox cub, then he might have drawn it out longer and given Tails the few, extra moments he needed to make his breakthrough and remember who he truly was, but then they arrived at the head of the Badnik assembly line:  The line that Doctor Robotnik had mere hours earlier ordered cleared of all work and reassigned exclusively for converting Tails as swiftly as possible.

“Well here we are.”  The badger gave the fox cub a shove that sent him stumbling forward onto the conveyor, causing him to lose his train of thought as he tried to catch his balance with his paws still bound in front of him.

The badger pointed his ‘laser pen’ at a point just above Tails’ head and the kit had just enough time to look up and recognise the barrel of another hypno-beam pointing down at him from the ceiling before the glowing green beam activated and the emblem of the Eggman Empire stole all his thoughts away again.  The cub felt himself plummet back down deep into trance.

Another laugh, but this one went right through Tails’ blank little mind without touching anything.  “Now, you just stand there and let what happens happen and we’ll make an upstanding servant of the Empire out of you before you know it.”

A quick gesture of the ‘pen’ and the conveyor lurched into life.  The hypno-beam above followed the slightest motion of his forehead keeping the softly-pulsing emblem centred as it rolled backwards on its overhead track.

At Tails’ first stop Metalic tendrils slithered up from rings cut in the surface of the belt almost as soon as the conveyor juddered to a halt.  Tails paid them no mind as he stared blankly ahead.  The full force of a hypno-beam was turned on him.  The emblem of the Empire shining proudly.  His eyes were half lidded and a tiny strand of silvery drool hung from his open lips.

The slick, dildo-tipped tendril moved under his slowly-swaying tails, seeking out and pressing at his plump cheeks; vibrating softly and causing the blank-eyed boy to moan as it slowly entered him.  The pleasant sensations in his rear causing his lil’ dick to rise to full hardness and his heart to beat faster.

Then the machine started to thrust.  Its programming instructed it to seek out all of the helpless cub’s most erogenous spots; to seek out the spots Tails himself knew nothing of and to melt the boy’s mind using them.  His cock leaked more than it ever had in his young life and his mind was left fully open to the effects of the hypno-beam.  Tails groaned in bliss.  His breath grew heavier and his body warmer.  He swayed slightly under the sensations, but somehow he remained in his spot.

He could have just stepped a little to the left or right and escaped this fate at any point after being shoved onto the conveyor and left unsupervised.  There was no one there to stop him from just vanishing but he was told to “just stand there,” and, with those orders the only thoughts in his head besides the ones being cemented in his subconscious, he had no desire to do anything else.

And so the belt moved him down the assembly line from station to station with Tails standing on it at a sleepy, sort-of attention as the machines did naughty things to his vulnerable lil’ bod; never resisting; not having the will to resist as they took advantage of his entranced state to permanently condition and brainwash the young freedom fighter.

This factory could be anywhere on Möbius.  It might be in the Scrap Brain Zone or an adjunct to the Chemical Plant; maybe it’s a part of the Egg Factory or located deep under the Crystal Egg Zone.

Tails could be anywhere now, but one thing is certain:  With so many locations to search even Sonic’s speed wont be enough to rescue his ‘best bud’ in time.  He’ll never find the foxnapped kit before he surrenders fully to the Eggman Empire and becomes one of the utterly-loyal soldiers of the Badnik Army.  The Blue Blur is already too late.

I don’t know which incarnation of Robotnik this is, but it isn’t SatAM or Underground since there are Badniks and no Roboticizer and it’s not AoSTH, X or Boom since this Robotnik is competent.  I’ve a feeling this is probably Fleetway Robotnik.  Tails’ lack of notoriety would certainly suggest that, but Fleetway Tails also appears to be a lot older than eight and isn’t a prodigy so it doesn’t quite fit.  It could also be Eggman from the games given some of the messed up things that have happened to Tails in Sonic Colors¹ and Sonic: Lost World¹ ².  :)

Some might say I’ve written Tails out of character here, but he is hypnotised and frankly I think any incarnation of Robotnik would try and humble the kid genius with a heart of gold if he could get his claws into the cub’s head.

Tails is just everything Robotnik is not: his inventions are usually on par with the Doctor’s if not better; he is content with his life, and not driven by some need to conquer and expand; he is well liked by the people at large (something which most dictators desire); and finally, he is friendly, cheerful and happy.  He is basically everything Doctor Robotnik could be but isn’t, and at only eight years old too.  That has to burn.

It’s not like Tails doesn’t have a few cracks that Robotnik couldn’t exploit either.  I’m not claiming that any particular incarnation Tails is neurotic or even lacking in confidence, but after being bullied and discounted so often ¹ ² ³; well even the most chilled kid-genius might spend a sleepless night feeling vaguely anxious about his self-worth.  So what we’re following isn’t Tails so much as it is the Tails Robotnik wants: uncertain, deferential, ‘acting’ his age, self-conscious and soon to be a weapon turned against his former friends.

Whatever the case, in my mind all of Tails’ dialogue is voiced by Colleen Villard (Tails’ current voice actor as of 2015) and it sounds awesome.
