Thinking it's odd that the SCU never specified the cousin connection like they did in Gerald's journal-

Except they didn't, looking back at Gerald's journal from Sonic X Shadow Generations and seeing that Gerald has two human sons that he became distant from but aside from Maria being his first grandchild it never specified who has which kids and Ivo is never mentioned by name-

Realizing this was never really explained in SA2 or any following media (Including the Shadow 2005 manual, I looked)-

Realizing the journal says Maria has a younger sister on Earth who was born several years after her and has none of the same genetic markers as her chronic illness-

Eggman trans canon(?)

So wait if Maria is Gerald's granddaughter in the SCU and so is Ivo, then Maria and Eggman are brother and sister. And if Shadow is brother to Maria through unofficial adoption or just a strong bond then Shadow and Dr Eggman are brothers. Then if Sonic is Shadow's boyfriend, if that ever gets a ring put on it then Sonic is officially brothers in law with Dr Eggman.

#sonic 3 spoilers #sonic x shadow generations spoilers #gerald's journal #'Maria is gerald's granddaughter... and so is Ivo' sorry I had to lol #Since Gerald didnt create Shadow in the SCU it makes him more of a grandkid than a Third Son #But Gerald still comes to treat Shadow as less than a person after Maria's loss #Gerald still has the same fall from grace and sanity even if the movie downplayed it to allow for laughs #certain pieces of Concept Art describe Eggman as 60 years old in the games which would have made him 10 during the Ark Incident #Gerald in the journals considers Maria a 'young woman' by the time the younger sister is born #but Maria says in SxSG that she 'misses' her sister implying they've interacted either on Earth or phone call/video call #And Ivo doesn't recognize Maria's name in SA2 at any point- even using it as a password the name seems foreign to him #Seems strange that he would forget her after looking up to Gerald since he was a kid-#Probably why we all assumed 'cousin'- the dad brothers split up and Ivo was raised on stories of Gerald and inherited the journal #without ever having met or heard of Maria #lore dump
