(Please only vote if you are a Sonic fan in some capacity, to avoid skewing the vote)

#SonicBoom #SonicTheHedgehog #Sonic #FandomPoll

	Too cantankerous/blue-armed/other/don't like Sonic Boom
	Not bad for the sitcom energy the show has, but prefer another version of him
	Eh. A Sonic is a Sonic is a Sonic (don't care about Sonic as a character)
	I like him a lot, even if he isn't my favorite
	You see that?! Puts him on best Sonic pedestal Not just a guy. A real hero.

I remember seeing a post on Tumblr that was a "shortcut" to making yourself enjoy a ship that you dislike: imagine them as a polycule with a ship you do enjoy. (Given as advice to someone upset that they couldn't enjoy fanworks of a popular ship that was their NoTP.)

Think of your NoTP. Now imagine a poly relationship combining them with your OTP. Does this advice change anything for you?
