What the Cross-World Hero (Sonic the Hedgehog) AU Looks Like

Language: Mostly in line with canon. Swearing is non-existent. Characters are more snarky and a good deal more sarcastic, with regular insults that aren't limited to just insulting a characters intelligence. Characters and narrator will occasionally refer to a character's chest, for which the only word that exists in this universe for breasts is "boobs" or "boobies". 

Violence: Definitely outside the canon realm. Characters bleed, experience broken body parts and can and will die. Nothing one wouldn't see outside of a PG-13 movie, especially where gore and mutilation is concerned.

Examples: The damage from a homing attack on a living being's body will be reflected. Mutations caused by the antagonistic entities. Descriptions of injured and dying/dead people. 

Sexuality: This was a part that I fought myself on. I don't want the world to be devoid of it as it is in the main canon, but I don't want rampant perversion and horniness as that's what my OTHER animal people story is like. That said, I do want to occasionally breach the subject, specifically for the likes of Athena. Because I am that kind of person that just HAS to have some fan service elements in his work

Examples: Male/female characters checking each other out. Obscured nudity. Vague descriptions. Breast physics. 

Story: 'X-World Hero' rewrites some minor events of Sonic Forces, specifically giving an identity to The Rookie and incorporating the existence of the Freedom Fighters into a modern continuity. Events within the IDW comics up until the Clean Sweep arc still occur, though the Restoration HQ does not get destroyed.

The biggest change will come from the world's perception of Sonic the Hedgehog following the Egg War, with Mobius becoming more critical of his actions and their consequences. From the point of view of Laik and characters outside of Sonic's primary circle(Tails, Amy, Knuckles), readers can catch a glimpse into the every day people's waning opinion on the hedgehog.
