Takes place in peace times in the Sonic Universe like 11 years in the future.
Whisper is an anthropomorphic wolf with biscotti fur that covers most of her body, and brown skin that covers her muzzle, inside of her ears, arms, upper torso, and front torso. She has thick black eyelashes and cloudy white fur around her eyes that resemble a mask. Her eyes are cadet blue, although they are often closed to the point of squinting. She wears light gray eyeshadow and has a long, bushy tail which ends in several tufts of fur sticking out in various directions. She also has a black nose, long-pointed ears and quite long hair that she keeps tied at the back in a ponytail with a black hair tie, save for a long, thick hair bang that covers her right eye. Her pointed cheeks are a little fluffy. Her fangs protrude from her mouth which is often in a natural frown. A wedding ring can be seen on her right index finger.
For peace times, Whisper has updated her attire since the last 6 years to be more casual and comfortable. Instead of her combat gear, she opts for a light gray t-shirt with a simple design, paired with dark gray/cream-colored jeans. She wears comfortable sneakers in dark gray/black instead of her military boots. Instead of her cloak and arm sleeves, she wears a light gray cardigan for added warmth. She still keeps her ponytail tied back, but her hair down for a more relaxed look. Her mask scope is still visible but is on the side of her face, allowing her features to be fully visible.
Whisper is a rather mysterious individual with a quiet and withdrawn personality. Very soft-spoken, she speaks only when the situation calls for it and, true to her name, in a very low volume, rarely uttering more than a few words at a time. Whisper used to be more outspoken, eloquent and joyful, but due to the trauma that Eggman and Mimic had caused her by ensuring the demise of her friends, she grew much more silent and reserved. Since then, she has been more shy, cautious and distrustful of others, preferring to be out of the spotlight and in hiding. She also values her personal space and limited her interactions with others, fearing that if she made new friends, she could not handle losing them too. When in social situations, Whisper usually exhibits a rather bashful side of herself. Despite this with Tangle and her relationship and it being peace times her old personality slowly has been coming back. A particular quirk about Whisper is that her eyes are squinting most of the time. She usually only opens them in moments of anger, distress or intense worry. Whisper is also a trained soldier, and thus, has experience fighting in war-like situations despite never joining the army.
Has a Variable Wispon, The Variable Wispon is a uniquely designed Wispon. Instead of being designed after the anatomy of a wisp, it is instead umbrella shaped. The bottom of it is hooked to allow users to grip it properly. Along the light gray neck of the weapon are two rounded white, black, and light blue studs. Very noticeably near the end of the Wispon is a large, rounded light blue, black, and white piece which has an open segment. The mouthpiece is quite long and gray in color, with a light blue end. The Variable Wispon is a very unique type of Wispon in more ways than one. Unlike standard Wispons, which are designed for clearing out crowds of robots, the Variable Wispon is designed for precision shots which cause less widespread damage, but more intense impacts. In addition, instead of being restricted to using just one specific breed of Wisp to power it, it can use the power of multiple Wisp breed. However, it can only house one Wisp breed at a time. When a Wisp is used they become pure energy. Depending on the Wisp powering it, the Variable Wispon can assume a specific weapon mode with its own unique power.
Described as pretty, Tangle is an anthropomorphic ring-tailed lemur (with the fur colors for the Coquerel's sifaka) with primarily light gray fur and orchid purple eyes. She possesses one eyelash on each eye, a small black nose and a long bushy tail with gray stripes. She also has gray fur around her muzzle and between her eyes, and dark gray fur around the sides of her eyes and on her eyelids and round ears. She also has extra fur on top of her head and chest, and small cheek tufts.
Tangle has opted for a more relaxed and comfortable outfit for peace times. She now wears a loose-fitting light orange t-shirt with a fun geometric pattern on it, paired with dark gray leggings. Her amber hi-tops have been replaced with cozy black slip-on sneakers, and she no longer wears the amber sports tape around her forearms but still has her black sports tape gloves. Instead, she wears a simple black wristband on her right arm. She still wears her wedding ring proudly on her left middle finger.
Tangle is loud, extroverted, and easily excitable, but also friendly, polite, helpful, and open. While having seen and overcome her own fair share of challenges in the form of Badniks, she is a novice heroine, and the world still continues to amaze her. As such, she has seen little of the more outlandish subjects that exist out in the world, like a pyrokinetic princess from another dimension who guards fiery Emeralds. While such concepts tend to leave her speechless, she is nonetheless quick to be amazed by them. Whenever she sees or reflects on something exciting, she tends to get starry-eyed. When reacting to a sudden sound or event, the hairs on her tail stand up.
Because of her outings with Sonic and other heroes, Tangle grew bored of her life at home in Spiral Hill Village and would grow hyperactive staying there since she could not stand the peace and quiet, much preferring to see the world and experience thrilling adventures. At the same time, however, she admitted to Jewel that she was both paranoid and nervous about leaving her home behind, as the village would be left vulnerable without her and that she would not have anyone to watch her back. Despite her newfound boredom, she remains loyal to her hometown and has gone through with staying when necessary and ensuring its safety despite how she felt and eagerly returning to it after long adventures. Despite this she has agreed with Whisper to settle down in her hometown and focus on their relationship.
Tangle's main draw is a highly prehensile tail that she can use and manipulate in various ways as if it was a third arm for a variety of situations. In practice, her tail can whip, snap, grip, curl, and even make a hand to form a fist with. In addition, her tail can extend and contract at will like a rubber band, thus allowing her to wield it as a rope, a bungee cord, a slingshot, or even a pully for herself. By curling it up like a coil, Tangle can also use her tail like a spring to bounce around and can even use this same method of wrapping her tail around someone or something to subdue them. It also has enough strength to dent Badnik armor with a single strike. Physically, Tangle is very fit and agile, possessing the same level of athleticism as Sonic the Hedgehog.
Tangle appears to suffer from claustrophobia, causing her to panic when enclosed within small spaces. Her phobia is so severe that the resulting panic has caused her to pass out in the past.
Purr is 10-year-old anthropomorphic half wolf and half ring-tailed lemur due to them being Tangles and Whispers child.
Purr is a unique blend of both Whisper and Tangle's physical characteristics. They have biscotti fur that covers most of their body like Whisper, with gray fur around their muzzle and between their eyes, and dark gray fur around the sides of their eyes and on their eyelids and round ears like Tangle. Purr also has brown skin that covers their muzzle, inside of their ears, arms, upper torso, and front torso, giving them a distinctive mixed look. They have long, bushy tail with gray stripes, reminiscent of Tangle's tail, and a mix of long-pointed ears and round ears, taking after both of their parents. They also have very tufted/fluffy furred hair on their head that sticks out in different directions.
Purr has since grown to be more independent and has developed their own sense of style. They now wear a mix of dark orange and gray clothing, with accents that combine elements from both Whisper and Tangle's outfits. They sport a dark orange sleeveless hoodie with gray trim and a stylized wolf and lemur emblem on the back, representing their mixed heritage. Purr also wears dark gray cargo pants with multiple pockets for storing their pranking supplies and other things, and dark orange and gray sneakers with white soles. They still wear their dark gray arm sleeves and knee pads, but with added dark orange detailing to make them stand out. They wear goggles on their head.
Purr has inherited traits from both Whisper and Tangle in terms of personality. They are adventurous and outgoing like Tangle, always eager to explore and experience new things. At the same time, they are cautious and observant like Whisper, taking their time to assess situations before jumping in. Purr is also quite resourceful and quick on their feet, able to come up with creative solutions to challenges they face. They have a playful and mischievous side, often using their prehensile tail to prank and tease others, but they are also fiercely loyal to their family, always ready to protect them. Purr has grown to have a knack for inventing, taking after hanging with Tails when Tangle and Whisper hang out or go on dates. They enjoy tinkering with gadgets and creating new contraptions, often spending hours in their makeshift workshop in the backyard coming up with new inventions.
Purr's gender is still unknown, and they have not shown any preferences in terms of how they are addressed. They simply go by the name Purr and are comfortable with their identity as a unique blend of their two parents' traits.
Purr has mostly been little'd by the general public due to them being a mixed species which has led to them having no friends and being homeschooled.
Purr's first word was Fuck due to Tangle slipping up.
Purr sat at their makeshift workbench, a small ball in front of them with various parts scattered around. With their goggles pushed up on their head, they carefully picked up the final screw and positioned it just right. Using a small wrench, Purr turned the screw into place with precision, making sure it was tight and secure.
As they finished tightening the last screw, a sense of satisfaction washed over Purr. They had been working on this ball contraption for months, and now it was finally coming together. With a satisfied smile, Purr picked up the ball and gave it a little shake to test the stability. It held together perfectly.
Purr's tail wagged happily behind them as they admired their handiwork. "Finally! After three months it done! The Capture Ball! Designed to be thrown and on impact with someone will put them in a bubble, making them trapped and harmless. All that needs to be done is some field testing."
Purr couldn't contain their excitement as they ran out of their workshop, the Capture Ball in hand. The townsfolk stared in disgust as they used their tail to swing towards the entrance of the town and head straight for the forest. The mixed reactions didn't faze Purr, who was eager to test out their new invention and see if it worked as well in the field as it did in theory.
As they reached the forest, Purr wasted no time in finding a suitable target. Spotting a group of Rouge Badniks roaming the area, Purr took a deep breath and threw the Capture Ball with precision. The ball hit its mark, enveloping one of the Badniks in a bubble and rendering it harmless.
Excited shouts of joy echoed through the forest as Purr successfully tested out their invention. They quickly retrieved the bubble with the trapped Badnik. "Yes! Yes, it works! Finally, this is gonna change th-!"
Purr's excitement quickly turned to shock as the bubble suddenly sparked and exploded in their face. The force of the explosion knocked Purr back, sending them flying through the air before landing roughly on the forest floor. As the smoke cleared, Purr coughed and sputtered, their fur singed and covered in soot. They stood up, not harmed but frustrated as the Capture Ball was completely destroyed.
"Fuck!"
Purr trudged back to the village, their tail drooping behind them in disappointment. The townspeople whispered and pointed as they passed by, some casting judgmental glances at the young half-wolf, half-lemur. Purr paid them no mind and continued on their way, their thoughts consumed by the failed test of their invention.
Finally reaching Tangle and Whisper's house, Purr silently entered and made their way straight to the bathroom. Stripping off their soot-covered clothes, they turned on the water and stepped into the warm shower, letting the water wash away the grime and frustration of the day.
As the water cascaded over them, Purr let out a frustrated growl, the events of the failed test replaying in their mind. They couldn't believe their invention had backfired so spectacularly, leaving them more embarrassed than ever. Purr scrubbed vigorously at their fur, trying to rid themselves of the lingering smell of smoke and burnt electronics.
After what felt like an eternity, Purr finally stepped out of the shower, feeling slightly calmer and more composed. Wrapping themselves in a fluffy towel, they dried off and dressed in fresh clothes, the events of the day still weighing heavily on their mind.
Exiting the bathroom, Purr made their way to the living room before laying on the couch, exhausted.
Tangle and Whisper soon entered the room, noticing the dejected look on Purr's face. Tangle immediately sat down next to them, wrapping an arm around their shoulders. "Hey, kiddo, what's wrong?" she asked gently.
Purr sighed, leaning into Tangle's comforting embrace. "I...I thought I had finally made something amazing. But it just blew up in my face," they admitted, feeling defeated.
Whisper sat down on the other side of Purr, placing a hand on their head. "It couldn't have been that bad."
Purr looked at her, "It literally blew up... in my face."
Whisper let out a soft chuckle. "Well, at least you learned something from it, right? Failure is just a stepping stone to success. And hey, you'll always have us to help you out and support you no matter what."
Tangle nodded in agreement. "That's right. Maybe it just needs a few adjustments. You can work on it tomorrow."
Purr flopped on the couch. "I just thought that I could make a difference, maybe people would actually see me as me and not some freak for once."
Tangle frowned, pulling Purr into a tight hug. "You are not a freak, Purr. You are unique and special in your own way. And no matter what happens, we will always be here for you, cheering you on every step of the way."
Whisper nodded, a small smile on her face. "That's right. We love you just the way you are, and we are proud of everything you do, even if it doesn't always go as planned."
Purr felt a warm sense of comfort wash over them as they snuggled between their parents, feeling grateful for the love and support they received. "Yeah, your right, I love you guys."
Tangle and Whisper exchanged smiles, their hearts swelling with warmth at Purr's words. "We love you too, Purr," they said in unison, embracing their child in a tight family hug.
Later...
Purr lay in their bed, the room dimly lit by their nightlight. They gazed up at the autographed picture of Tails hanging on the ceiling above their bed, Tails was giving a thumbs up with a bright grin on his face, his eyes sparkling with excitement.
"How do you do it? Everyone bullied you for your extra tail but you're a hero now, you made a difference in the world with Sonic."
Purr laid in bed, staring up at the picture of Tails, the moonlight casting a soft glow around the room. They fidgeted with the edge of their blanket, a sense of longing and admiration filling their chest.
"You're so brave, Tails. You never let anyone bring you down, no matter what they said about you. You always believed in yourself and followed your dreams," Purr whispered to the image on the ceiling, their voice barely audible in the quiet room.
As they waited for a response that would never come, Purr sighed softly, a mix of admiration and envy swirling within them. They wished they could be as strong and confident as Tails, to face their fears head-on and make a difference in the world.
Purr turned to the side. "I'll... just try again tomorrow."
Feeling safe and content in their cozy bed, Purr closed their eyes, letting go of the worries and frustrations of the day. They focused on the feeling of being surrounded by love and support from their parents, letting it wrap around them like a warm embrace.
As sleep finally claimed them, Purr drifted off into a peaceful slumber.
