Dave the Intern

"They'll pay for this... they're all gonna pay! Wuhahahahaha! Do you want fries with that?"

- Dave the Intern, "Double Doomsday"

Dave the Intern is a character that appears in the Sonic Boom television series. He is an anthropomorphic teenage rodent who works as a cashier at Meh Burgers. A fan of Dr. Eggman, he managed to become his intern, but was fired soon-after for being too ambitious.

Appearance
Dave is a teenage rodent who is rather tall and skinny compared to other anthropomorphic animals, though he is still only a little more that half the height of Dr. Eggman. He possesses aqua fur with bangs mimicking a hairline and cowlicks on the top of his head and neck, green eyes, and an almost complete white muzzle. He also has a wide black nose, three freckles/zits on each cheek, and two overly large buck teeth. For attire, he wears a lavender shirt depicting yellow leaves and a tag, white gloves, and a pair of red and cyan sneakers. He also has two visible braces on his buck teeth.

History
At some point, Dave gained an interest in Dr. Eggman and aspired to be a villain like him. After a year and a half in the fast food industry, Dave met Eggman at his work on Meh Burger where he approached the doctor with his admiration, which impressed Eggman enough to make him his intern. Dave began working on the menial tasks at Dr. Eggman's lair, where he after hearing Cubot's dislike of him, dismantled the robot in secret. Eventually, Dave was promoted to Eggman's protégée and he wished to get more evil experiences, but when the doctor told him to wait a few weeks, Dave snapped. He locked himself in Eggman's lab where he activated the countdown on Eggman's doomsday device to prove himself the better evil genius, which made them compete for who could build the better doomsday device. Dave soon met Tails whom he accepted to help improve his doomsday device. However, it turned out to be an trap set by Tails and Sonic which stopped his plan. Dave was then fired by Eggman for his insubordination and he returned to his old job, swearing revenge.

Personality
Outward, Dave is a nerdy teenager who is apparently unhappy with his job. He is a devout fan-boy and suck-up to Eggman, being overly enthusiastic about any menial task he might give from him. Beneath this exterior however, he is an angry, terrible and mentally unstable young man who is overly ambitious of become an evil genius; when he heard of Cubot's dislike of him, he ruthlessly dismantled him and when Eggman told him to wait to make bigger plans, Dave snapped and would go as far as to destroy the world just to prove himself a villain. He is also shown to be vengeful, promising retribution after Eggman fired him.

Powers and Abilities
Dave is remarkably intelligent in the field of technology, seemingly on pair with Dr. Eggman. He was able to finish and activate Dr. Eggman's incomplete doomsday device on his own and could as well improve upon it to same level as Eggman's own upgrades using ridiculous materials, like a rubber crocodile.

Dr. Eggman
Dave is admittedly a big fan of Dr. Eggman, knowing all his moves. He did not mind working for Eggman as an unpaid intern when the doctor offered the position; in fact, he was more than happy to do it, and was enthusiastic about doing all his menial tasks. However, when Eggman told him to wait a few weeks before he could work on the more prominent subjects, Dave's admiration of Eggman turned into hatred and they ended up competing for who could build the better doomsday device to prove themselves the better evil genius. After Eggman fired him, Dave swore revenge against the doctor.
