This kind of fanfiction is concerning. The Sonic character has been created to represent certain values like speed, heroism, and fun. Portraying him getting abused not only distorts the character but also might introduce inappropriate and disturbing content into the Sonic fan community. This could have a negative impact on younger fans who look up to Sonic as a positive role model.
It could make some fans uncomfortable. Since Sonic is a family - friendly character, this type of dark and negative fanfiction can create a negative atmosphere in the community.
No, it's not common. The Sonic franchise is generally associated with fun, action - packed stories. Fans usually like to write about Sonic saving the day or his interactions with his friends. But, there could be some outlier stories that deal with abuse, perhaps to show a different side of Sonic's character or to explore deeper emotional themes, but they are not the norm.
I'm not sure specifically as there could be various interpretations in such a fanfiction. Maybe Metal Sonic sets Sonic up in a way that makes Sonic look bad to the other characters, perhaps by faking some evidence or causing chaos and making it seem like Sonic's fault.
Positive Sonic fanfiction could be about Sonic mentoring the younger characters like Tails and teaching them important life lessons. Or it could be about Sonic and his friends having to solve a mystery in their world, like a strange disappearance of an important item or character. Fanfictions that show the characters growing and evolving in positive ways, such as Amy becoming more confident in her own abilities, are also excellent alternatives to inappropriate fanfiction themes.
Sonic would probably be very shocked at first. He trusts Amy, so her betrayal would be unexpected. He might initially try to talk to her to understand why she did it.
It could be Dr. Eggman. He's always been after Sonic and trying to defeat him. Experimenting on Sonic could be his new way to find Sonic's weaknesses or to gain his powers for himself.
I'm not entirely sure specifically as there could be many interpretations. It might be a fanfiction where Sonic, the character, experiences some sort of 'breaking' event. Maybe he gets injured, or his spirit is broken in some story - created - by fans.
Well, in this 'sonic gets roboticized fanfiction', it might explore the idea of Sonic's identity when he becomes robotic. It could show how his friends react to this new form. For example, Tails might be shocked at first but then try to find a way to reverse the roboticization. And Sonic himself could be struggling with feeling less 'alive' in his robotic state, all while facing new enemies or challenges that are related to his new robotic nature.
