You're not a monster

Fanart exchange with The Outcasts. In her fanfiction Sonic has been turned into a mutant with claws, yellow eyes, the works. But he's still Sonic, and is having trouble dealing with his new look. In this pic, Sally is playing with his ferocious clawed hands and telling him that he's not a monster, no matter how he looks.

Sally isn't feeling well, either. Finish the fic already, OC! *waves fist*
