Sweet talk

Summary:

A series of standalone mini stobotnik comics and illustrations I've drawn

Notes:

Maybe you've seen me on Tumblr as technically-human, maybe not. In any case, here they'll be more organized! Some of these have a little story going for them, but most are just jokes, and they're full of my own headcanons and interpretations.
I'll mark this as complete but keep adding to it as I draw, at least until I fixate on something else!
Title is from the song "Sweet Talk" by Saint Motel, which I believe is the ultimate Stone song.
Have fun!

(See the end of the work for other works inspired by this one.)

Chapter 1: Simp

Chapter Text

The very first stobotnik comic I drew. Believe it or not, I originally planned to just draw three of these and then move on. Ha.

Chapter 2: An oh moment of sorts

Chapter Text

I think Stone learned something about himself that day.

On that same note, I like to think this is nothing kinky for him, he just likes having Robotnik close. I've decided Stone is the most vanilla guy to ever live, simply because that's hilarious.

Chapter 3: Hair

Chapter Text

I'm just here to push the Stone used to dye Robotnik's hair agenda.

And the angsty bonus:

Chapter 4: Marriage

Chapter Text

There's something so funny to me about Robotnik not knowing Stone's name but still wanting to marry him. Not for romantic reasons, mind you. That Agent is his and the law should recognize that.

I still haven't decided if it's funnier if G.U.N. found the marriage certificate while trying to erase all of Robotnik's existence, or if they didn't find it so now that still exists.

Chapter 5: He likes the drama

Chapter Text

I wanted Stone to slap Robotnik, but that felt OOC. Luckily, they're both very weird and canonically into telenovelas. I have watched my fair share of those things (I'm not Mexican, but Spanish is my first language! I'm Argentinian, actually) and I know no matter what, someone is getting slapped.

Chapter 6: Robot noises

Chapter Text

I drew this one as a direct result of that deleted scene of Robotnik saying "You can't deal with all this rizz" so...

The autistic rizz works, people, trust me. That's how I got my girlfriend.

Chapter 7: The Shadow ones

Chapter Text

Here we are! A post-canon AU(?) in which Stone sorta adopts Shadow

My logic for this was that Shadow saved Robotnik, but refused to take him back to Earth, since he is... you know, evil. However, Stone was on his own path of destruction as a last act of devotion towards his Doctor, plus he was just very sad, so Shadow had no choice. They're still not getting along, though

Chapter 8: First meeting

Chapter Text

If this seems familiar, maybe you've read my fic The Devil Wears Black!

Chapter 9: Eggman is timetraveling

Chapter Text

When I drew this one, I wasn't planning on returning to it, but... well, people kept asking, and things soon spiraled.

Here we have Past Stone!! But what about Future Stone?

Well, he's on his way. And the reunion, uh, it's a bit intense.

Past stobotnik is pretty judgy, but they don't understand the relief of a reunion after being separated so many times... not yet, anyways. Speaking of which, time to go home!

But before that, a few interactions, because boy, does Stone have issues

Robotnik remains unbothered though lol

Chapter 10: Happy to see you

Chapter Text

The moment Robotnik realized Stone wasn't going anywhere.

I think this man is just not used to anyone being happy to see him... this might be a first for him

Chapter 11: Realization

Chapter Text

Stone is letting it happen, buddy

Chapter 12: Scary!

Chapter Text

The first time Robotnik saw Stone angry... it was an experience.

Chapter 13: The first few months

Chapter Text

Robotnik slowly but surely growing on Stone.

To be honest, I think Stone wanted to take care of Robotnik even before he started liking the man. Something about the Doctor just screams "I've been doing everything on my own for far too long" and well, it was Stone's job to make life a bit easier for him. Soon enough, the reward of a job well done started to get confused with the satisfaction of just seeing the Doctor happy.

Eventually, Stone just had to accept he grew fond of Robotnik.

The Doctor took his time before making the robot noises, not consciously, but because he didn't feel comfortable with someone around after spending all of his life alone. That moment is important because first, Ivo is finally relaxed enough to do it (even if he doesn't even realize he was avoiding it) and for the first time Stone is hit with the fact that he just wants to see more of this man being relaxed, not because it means he has successfully done his job, but because it's... cute.

Chapter 14: Mobian Agent Stone

Summary:

Yeah he's a goat. But a purple one!

Chapter Text

Robotnik doesn't know how to turn him back. Oops.

Chapter 15: Angst

Chapter Text

Oh, Ivo. You are no Maria.

Except he kinda is? I mean, dying and that sending the person who loved you the most on a path of destruction and revenge? pretty Maria coded if you ask me. Suck it, Gerald.

Chapter 16: Dresses

Chapter Text

I have nothing to add...

Chapter 17: Badniks

Chapter Text

No matter how you cut it, Robotnik loses

Chapter 18: Recovery

Chapter Text

Listen I am obsessed with this period. I need a million hurt/comfort fics right now.

Chapter 19: Words of affirmation

Chapter Text

I like to think that after the Eclipse Cannon, Robotnik would try to show his love and appreciation more openly!

I also like to think that he would do it terribly and it would backfire constantly.

Chapter 20: Hurt Doc

Chapter Text

I'm a simple woman, I just want Stone to go feral protecting his Doctor, but also going all soft as soon as he sees him.

Chapter 21: Stone's last mission

Chapter Text

I love love love the idea of Robotnik going to manhandle Stone as per usual, only to stop when he sees he's actually hurting him

Chapter 22: space-cowboys AU

Chapter Text

No lore only vibes(?)

Chapter 23: No crying

Chapter Text

Even now that the Doctor is... gone, Stone is doing his best not to cry. Wouldn't want to upset him if he comes back.

Chapter 24: Nightmare

Chapter Text

Unrealistic tbh

Chapter 25: Sneak attack!

Chapter Text

The first time in years Robotnik was able to take Stone by surprise!

Chapter 26: Okay, some crying

Chapter Text

Poor Sonic, man. Even worse:

Chapter 27: Meet the classics

Chapter Text

I just wanted to throw a rock at Ivo, but then again, things got out of control

Chapter 28: Resign to your fate

Chapter Text

Maybe you wouldn't have to deal with that if you stopped dying.

Chapter 29: miscellaneous art

Chapter Text

Most of these are from Tumblr asks.

That's all for now! phew, it's more than I thought. Hope some of that was fun!!

 

Chapter 30: Emerald

Chapter Text

Someone on Tumblr mentioned that it was a miracle how Stone didn't break his head while Emerald Robotnik was pulling him up by the legs, and this was the funniest thing I could draw about that

Like can you imagine?

I also considered making it cool, you know. Robotnik healing Stone with his emerald powers and leaving a green lighting mark/scar on his head. Very badass. But something about the most powerful human sitting next to a hospital bed looking vaguely disappointed in himself kills me.

Chapter 31: Meet the classics part 2

Chapter Text

I was asked if classic Stone misses his life and his home after being kidnapped.

The sad thing is that he really doesn't.

Stone mentioned that he couldn't imagine another version of himself being happy without having met the Doctor. He was right. Classic Stone didn't actually have anything going on. He lived in the Star Light Zone, he talked to the bomb badniks every now and then, and he prepared lots of coffees and drinks, but he had no friends nor any real hobby. He was just... bored.

While he was, indeed, kidnapped and taken to Eggman, Stone is free to leave. No one has said as much, but he knows this. What he doesn't know is that, if he does leave, Eggman will probably stalk him not so subtly. But he won't stop him from leaving. He has decided to stay because he's curious about this whole thing, and a bit amused by how awkward Eggman is around him. Stone hasn't even asked questions about why he was taken to this man, because he thinks the mystery is fun.

Meanwhile, Eggman is trying very hard to impress his crush. It's not going too well.

Chapter 32: Come save me!

Chapter Text

I think Robotnik likes to put on a pathetic little act every now and then to manipulate Stone. It works!

To be clear, he knows Stone will save him no matter what. But if he does this, Stone will be more violent towards his captors, so he saves this little trick for particularly annoying kidnappers.

Back at G.U.N. everyone was watching the video and as soon as this happened Stone vanished. Walters is just like dammit, not again!

Chapter 33: Sit down!

Chapter Text

Robotnik does this to make people uncomfortable and for no other reason, trust me.

I like to think the Doctor sits on Stone's lap pretty regularly, just because he can and he enjoys being unpredictable. When it's Stone's turn, like here, he doesn't sit on the Doctor's legs, but between them. Why? I don't know, it just feels right. I also think at some point they had this interaction:

Robotnik, sitting on Stone's lap for no reason: Go make me a latte

Stone: Yes, Doctor... I need you to get up to do that.

Robotnik: how dare you?

Chapter 34: Sneak attack! part 2

Chapter Text

This one was a suggestion by Digital_Bookshelf!

Rare for me to draw Stone winning! Immediately had to ruin it for him

Chapter 35: Sorry, your agent is dead

Chapter Text

After that, the Doctor put a tracker on Stone

Someone on Tumblr wrote a very cute ficlet based on this one, so here's a link

I would like to start putting links to the fics that have been inspired by my art! I love every single one of them. But it might take a while, because there are quite a few of them

Chapter 36: How they got together

Chapter Text

Stone totally didn't understand what Robotnik was getting at during the Eclipse Cannon thing. And the Doctor never corrected him because why bother? this is way funnier.

Chapter 37: Pebble and Egg

Chapter Text

I don't even know, I drew the first one as a joke and then people liked him, so I drew more.

As far as I can tell, Robotnik created them, maybe while looking into cloning, and now they're the only 100% angst free version of them to exist.

Also Robotnik did bite Stone, specifically while controlling/under the control of the Emerald (not that he wouldn't under normal circumstances). It wasn't a sex thing, he's just feral.

Chapter 38: First kiss

Chapter Text

Robotnik was trying to be practical, he forgot kisses are a thing.

He also knew there was no danger, but told no one because he wanted to be left alone.

Chapter 39: Something changed...

Chapter Text

Stone being a hater is so important to me.

Robotnik resents the implication! He's not doing anything nice for Stone, why would he? how dare you even suggest there's something to be thankful for? He'll still drink the coffee though.

Chapter 40: The power of friendship

Chapter Text

Orphan Ivo jokes always make me laugh, I'm so sorry.

Chapter 41: Meet the classics part 3

Chapter Text

The classics have been progressing a lot! 

Stone took Eggman to the Star Light Zone where he used to live before, you know, being kidnapped

His attempts at figuring out what's happening have been... umh...

Eggman has been doing his own research

And the Doctor has now officially tried Stone's coffee!

And Sonic finally met Stone, which will lead to an interesting (and necessary) conversation between these two

Stone learned some things, huh? anyway, here are some illustration that are not canon (yet) but I couldn't resist

That's all for now!

Chapter 42: 5 PhDs + 1

Chapter Text

Silly headcanon time! None of Robotnik's degrees are in medicine. Why should he care about that? His interest in the human body ends with his own. That is, until one time when Stone got really hurt, and the Doctor could do nothing. He coped by... teaching himself everything there is to know about medicine! He's very normal like that. Never bothered getting a degree for that one though.

This comic was a bit difficult... I had issues balancing the comedy with the earnest and serious mood of the Doctor. I hope I did okay!

Also, Stone keeps the recipe secret because he thinks is one of the few things he has in his favour. Like, will the Doctor leave him behind if he can make his own lattes...?

Chapter 43: No use

Summary:

Some angst

Chapter Text

Giving Stone abandonment issues is my passion. Making him resigned to it is a little bonus. He is so used to the Doctor leaving him behind that he doesn't even try to prevent it anymore, he just focusses on improving himself until he is enough and can be by Rob's side once more... until he is left behind again. And repeat.

But hey, Robotnik is trying now.

Chapter 44: Conditioning

Chapter Text

Presented without comment

Sorry I neglected to post here! I did just post a fic from Robotnik's POV if you guys want to read it! But even if not, expect me to add a few more comics in the next few minutes lol I really fell behind

Chapter 45: Game strenght

Chapter Text

There's a headcanon going around about Robotnik getting game strenght after the events of the third movie, so here's my take on that! An agent is always an agent

Chapter 46: Cute

Chapter Text

I like Stone's confused/judgy face and now so does Robotnik

Chapter 47: Hanahaki

Chapter Text

It's already requited, they're just stupid.

After this, I imagine a romcom in which Stone tries to make Robotnik fall in love with him. Orders are orders, after all.

Chapter 48: Stone's first name

Chapter Text

Only Ivo knows

Chapter 49: Animatic!

Chapter Text

Phew! This took forever. Song is Enamorado Tuyo by El Cuarteto de Nos. Translation is mine! Hope you guys like it!

Chapter 50: Casually affectionate Rob

Chapter Text

This is how friends interact, right?

Chapter 51: Again

Chapter Text

The Doctor learned some things about himself that day

Chapter 52: Birthday

Chapter Text

May 19th is St. Ivo's feast day. Patron Saint of lawyers and abandoned children (yeah)

Some people look up saints' feast days to name their kids, and I've decided that's what his parents did.

Chapter 53: Performance review

Chapter Text

The idea of no one believing the Doctor when he talks about how clingy Stone is makes me laugh

Chapter 54: Romance

Chapter Text

Stone really hears what he wants to hear... good for him! He's not actually wrong, but his priorities... ah, whatever.

Chapter 55: Success...?

Chapter Text

I thought about this too much...
First robotnik isn't thinking. he's sleep deprived and his hand moved before he could process; second he and the female protagonist share a color palette, same with stone and the mc.
Robotnik is messy enough to keep a glass of water next to dangerous chemicals i just know it.

Third if you get a substance that burns through clothes the fabric will melt with your skin: ugly scars and also painful as hell i would guess... Robotnik HAD to be the one cleaning the wounds so he feels particularly guilty, I mean he KNEW stone was there he just... he doesn't know.
Stone is not gonna question it. sometimes the doctor just throws stuff around. it just so happened that he was there.
He got to see shirtless stone which apparently was his goal but at what cost
And Stone underreacted to the pain. because he's Stone.

Chapter 56: Cat behavior

Chapter Text

That's all, don't question it

Chapter 57: Assistants' names

Chapter Text

This one was the result of an ask by Lalalaurie. Basically, Robotnik never bothered to remember the names of the people assigned to him, until along came this little agent, who could do the work of 10 like him without complaining.  Rob tries to be charming here. It usually doesn't work, but...

Chapter 58: Messy hair Stone

Chapter Text

Not much to add...

Chapter 59: Jealous Robotnik, jealous Stone

Chapter Text

Stone does NOT get the reference

}Very important to me that he's pathetic. 

Chapter 60: An honor

Chapter Text

I wanted to make Robotnik suffer a bit. A friend is writing a fic inspired by this one right here: It Was An Honor

Chapter 61: 301 IQ

Chapter Text

IQ is bullshit anyways

(but he wasn't saying that before this)

Chapter 62: After a battle

Chapter Text

I originally posted the first picture but everyone was too sad, so I added the second one. Someone wrote a little fic inspired by the first one: not good enough?

Chapter 63: Nothing left to lose

Chapter Text

This was a commission! A scene from the fic Nothing Left to Lose

I was allowed to pick whatever scene I wanted and I went with this from Chapter 10! I really recommend this fic!

Chapter 64: Playing into it

Chapter Text

 

Chapter 65: Problem Agent

Chapter Text

This comic contains some of the cutest Stones I've ever drawn

Chapter 66: What did he do?

Chapter Text

All the replies I got for this one had me dying. Everyone came up with so many stupid things Robotnik could have done. Ah, love this fandom

Chapter 67: Don't.

Chapter Text

Chronically online Robotnik x barely uses Internet Stone, my beloved

Chapter 68: An alternative

Chapter Text

Warn him next time, Doctor

Chapter 69: Walking and talking

Chapter Text

Is this romance, people?

Chapter 70: Tumblr tries to get me to undress Stone

Chapter Text

All of these were replies to asks I got!

Chapter 71: He likes you!

Chapter Text

I like to think agents have regular training sessions and sometimes their bosses just go and watch. Robotnik would want to bet, but no one else is willing.

Chapter 72: Ugly Cat Ivo

Chapter Text

This AU has been doing numbers on Tumblr. Basic premise: while lost in space after the explosion of the third movie, Robotnik ended up going to some weird planets. In one of those, he ate a thing –because it kind of looked like a mushroom, and he was feeling... Sort of nostalgic– which had absolutely no side effects.

Except that now, months later, he's suddenly a cat. He hasn't made the connection because why would he. He's as confused by this development as everyone else.

The transformation depends on the phases of that specific planet's natural satellite (so basically, the moon, but not our moon, if you get what I'm saying) so it will wear off on its own... But it will also return on its own.

That's it for now! Here are some extra illustrations:

Chapter 73: Smell

Chapter Text

Emerald Robotnik is so weird, I love him <3

Chapter 74: Overtime

Chapter Text

Stone was already working those hours, but now he's getting paid! They'll use the money to buy fancy coffee, probably.

Chapter 75: To belong

Chapter Text

This is the most important aspect of the ship to me, at least when it comes to Robotnik's perspective. To have been no one's anything ever, and to suddenly have someone who is yours, even if it's in such a weird way... well, I think Robotnik loved Stone from the start, but initially not because of Stone himself, just because he was his.

This is a man who wants to belong to someone, and who wants someone who's just his.

Chapter 76: Bullies

Chapter Text

I tried something new!

First time Robotnik was kidnapped with Stone as his agent. He doesn't quite trust Stone yet, and his in a vulnerable position, so he's remembering a time when he was at the mercy of others, and how they laughed.

I put thought into a lot of details but I'd like to see what you guys think! Hopefully this makes sense to people who aren't me lol

Chapter 77: Hymn to Virgil

Chapter Text

Lyrics are from Hymn to Virgil by Hozier

This is different from what I usually draw. I've been feeling a bit unmotivated, and when that happens, it's always a good idea to make something you don't usually do! This song always reminds me of Stone, so here's some angst for you guys. I hope you see the vision.

Chapter 78: Mi vida

Chapter Text

Silly crab era times

Works inspired by this one:
