Why do people complain so much that Knuckles x Tikal is "basically incest" when they are ok with Knuckles marrying Julie Su who'd his literal distant cousin in the Archie?? (As shown in Knuckles' family tree).

Oh, and before you say that the ship with Tikal "doesn't make sense" because she's "dead", just know that Tikal goes to the "afterlife" at the end of SA1 along with Chaos, but Chaos does make a return in various Sonic games, which means Tikal can return to the overworld too. Not only that but the master emerald itself can bring her back. I can guarantee you a hundred percent that Knuckles would love someone who is an echidna just like him and could relate to him the most. If Sonic and Tails can have lovers of the same species as him, why shouldn't Knuckles??
