Summary
This was… confusing.
Okay. Think, what was the last thing I could remember?
My thoughts shifted, they plied through my own consciousness in search of any thread that might be useful. There were vague sounds, blurred images and muted emotions. These have to be my memories, right? Then why did they all feel so distant? My own mind felt like a tar pit. Wait, there’s something there. It took all of my concentration to slip into the memory, colors bloomed in front of me in fuzzy watercolor. A name, my name, popped into my mind and I grasped onto it for dear life.
Silver. My name is Silver the Hedgehog.
-

Summary
I nestled closer to the walls of Sonic’s mind. In this area they bobbed softly to the rhythm of his voice, it was quite soothing. So soothing in fact I hadn’t noticed the weird sphere had drifted closer to me, so close in fact that it was looming over my form and I was essentially trapped between it and the crater wall.
Uh… that probably wasn’t good.

Flower Journaling With Your Brain Buddy by CatDragron

Summary
Sonic gradually slowed to a walk. His hand trailed across the rough tree bark and he let the foliage brush against his legs. He had noticed himself paying attention to the physicality of his environment more and hadn’t really felt a need to stop. He always hoped Silver was enjoying it. Then he spotted what he had been looking for, a delicate flower growing in a patch of sunlight and moss, its thin vines twisting up the irregular surface of the tree. He approached it and crouched so he was sitting on his heels.
After a moment just examining the flower, he said, “You should come smell this for a moment.” He knew Silver didn’t often plug into that sense but this was going to be good and he knew his brain buddy would want in on this particular sensation. He got a tap of acknowledgement on his shoulder. “Ok, ok. What’s your thoughts on this one?”
-
A multi-chapter fic from Sonic's POV with smaller stories of Sonic and Silver describing various plants in an effort to try and help Silver remember his lost memories. Will update when new chapters are written, chapter amount is how many stories I currently have plans for.

Summary
Space rippled around me in languid bursts like gentle waves lapping at a beach. Sonic was still sleeping, something else must have caused the movement. Curiosity led me further into the dark where it was hard to even see distant memories. But I wasn’t focused on them anymore. Ahead of me, colors unfurled across space, an aurora of pale blues and greens. They solidified into a wispy field where wind blew white petals through the air.
My form stuttered as something at the center started to take shape. Bright blue lifted out of the wispy grass with eyes just as green. The person stood and looked up towards the pale sky, a smile on their face. Despite their ghostly appearance, there was something familiar to them.

Summary
Sonic stopped his stroll, brows twitching into a frown. "What's wrong Silver?"
His mind pressed around me and I tried to squish myself further into his sensory nodes. It was a stupid thought, nothing to worry about.
A low, disbelieving hum reverberated through Sonic's chest. I had to redirect the conversation I had just started. (Why had I even started it in the first place? Was it even a question I wanted answers to?)
I like the sound of the creek, can we… get closer?

Summary
Hey Silver, I'm up.
Your thoughts beam out into the space that is your brain with practiced ease. Instead of getting an answer, you instead feel your headache worsening, the dull throb now a piercing pain encircling to the front of your skull.
And that's when you remember, belatedly, why having a headache struck you as odd in the first place.
You haven't had a headache since Silver started calling your mind his home.
