the night of october 29th 2024 was filled with sudden inspiration
after reading an almost completely unrelated bluesky post by my friend junko.
suddenly i had come up with a whole thread of insane nonsense, infodumping about this new idea i had.
this idea turned out to be a bunch of really gay sonic 2 zone gijinka girls.
junko also helped out with various design suggestions, personality traits, and nicknames.
my only idea for her is that she'd kinda just be a generic happy girl. nothing more yet, sorry. :(
i imagine a lot of people would think she's super cool, but deep down she is toxic and egotistical.
only design ideas currently are that she wears sleeves that resemble the zone's tubes
and she may have glasses based on those weird spheres on the tubes themselves.
her toxicity is in reference to the toxic purple water/mega mack in the zone.
she's very obsessed with nature and is very prim and proper.
her hair is kind of vine-ish and filled with red berries. her dress is designed like a totem pole or pillar.
transgender
she's kind of like king dice from cuphead where she tries to get you to gamble but she's super rigged it all.
she's very money hungry.
her design would probably just be a tophat that looks like a bumper,
and a suit that looks like the pinball table backgrounds.
she is transgender because the real zone went through drastic artistic changes throughout sonic 2's development.
hilltop is very chill and loves flowers. she aspires to be like emerald hill.
she doesn't usually show it, but she has a VERY temper.
obviously her temper is in reference to the lava in the zone.
she is a strong beautiful butch lesbian who keeps her emotions secret.
despite that, she DOES care about other's deeply. she's also secretly a bit silly.
her soft side is in reference to the zone housing a secret entrance to the beautiful hidden palace.
she is very clumsy but very patient with people.
her patience makes it easy to irritate her.
she ends up bottling her emotions and if she's irritated enough, she's gonna get very pissed off.
when she tears up, her tears resemble that of oil.
her clumsiness is in reference to oil being very slippery,
and her temper is in reference to the firey aspects of the zone's return in sonic mania.
she is very gay for holly.
no personality ideas yet...
her hair would have little gears in them instead of bows :)
she's kind of a stereotypically soft sad girl.
she used to be very sad due to everyone forgetting about her, but now that she's opened up to them, she now cries tears of joy.
i imagine she'd wear a green emerald dress dotted with the bridge lights at the waist.
inspiration for her sadness is the multiple waterfalls in the level.
she likes a wide variety of music, in reference to the various music glitches in this zone.
transgender
mira is a western girl who bartends and gets drunk for fun.
she is transgender and has had a hard time finding herself.
originally, her name was sand shower (nickname being sandy), but after realizing she was trans, she tried out the name desert dazzle (nickname being daisy).
unfortunately, she didn't think it fit her all that well. she is now much happier as mira.
mirage saloon is here because sonic mania proves that the zone takes place on west-side island.
despite popular belief, wendy is not related to metropolis.
she gets very irritated very easily.
her real name is "secret jungle" but most call her "wood". she prefers "wendy".
