Poolside Blues

Rating: T Warning tags: Mention of past torture, experiencing a panic attack and aquaphobia.

He didn’t know why he agreed to come along. It took nearly three days' worth of constant nagging and pestering from Amy for him to crack. She had insisted that he come along with all their friends to the small community pool for some ‘fun under the sun’ as she put it. Sonic gave her a condition: he would come as long as he didn’t have to step a foot into the water. As exasperating as she thought he was being, she agreed to his terms.

Sonic let out a long dramatic sigh as he shifted a small pool tote to his other arm. He walked alongside his partner, Shadow, who carried a separate tote bag with towels and small snacks for Sonic as well as some adventure books so he wouldn’t get bored at the pool. They walked down the dirt path, getting closer to the small community pool. Supposedly Amy had rented it out for the day for all of them.

“You didn’t have to come if you didn’t want to.” Shadow stated flatly, there was no malice in his tone, he simply was stating the obvious. Sonic trudged his feet beside him, he looked at Shadow. Long slender legs wore red swim trunks and his gaze went up to see a toned stomach, trailing over soft chest fur up to piercing ruby eyes. He smiled softly to himself.

“Yeah, I know but FOMO and all that, am I right?” He quipped playfully, arms resting behind his long cobalt quills.

“FO what?” Shadow looked quizzically, slightly miffed. Sonic chuckled lightly and grabbed Shadow’s free hand, lacing fingers together. He felt Shadow squeeze his hand lightly, a comforting gesture they shared often to convey that they were present and there for each other.

“Means fear of missing out, like you might miss out on something fun or awesome.” he said casually. His counterpart hummed in response, thinking it was a silly saying. They walked closer, arms brushing against one another, a playful nudge here and there.

When they arrived at the community pool they were greeted by friends. Tails whammed into his brother’s arm the second he had a chance, nearly knocking the hero down.

“Woah! Good to see ya too, lil bro.” Sonic laughed as he ruffled fluffy yellow bangs. Tails smiled a toothy grin as he playfully swatted the offending hands.

“Same goes for you! I can’t wait to show you what I’ve been working on next time you’re free.” He beamed.

“Ohhh, still modifying the Tornado or is it something different?” He inquired, his signature smirk written on his face. Tails flicked his namesake excitedly.

“Well both I guess, I’ll tell you later about it. I’m sure Amy and Knuckles wanna say hi too. Hi Shadow, how are you?” he waved and smiled warmly at him.

“Doing well, are the rest of my team here?” he asked calmly.

“I think only Rouge could make it, said something about Omega preferring to destroy practice dummies in the training grounds.” The fox stated. Shadow gave a curt nod and walked past the two to greet Rouge. Sonic watched him go, he couldn’t help but stare.

“I’m surprised you actually came to the pool, Sonic.” the little fox said with a hint of smugness his hands resting on his hips. The two walked over to the lawn chairs close to the fence a few feet from the pool and sat down.

“Yeah well, Amy asked and you know how she is.” He said as he leaned back in his lawn chair. He gazed at the pool and saw Cream and Cheese playing in the shallow end. He smiled and waved at the two who eagerly waved back and continued to play.

“Yeah, I get that.” Tails laughed softly. “So I know there’s no way in chaos that you’re gonna swim, so what are you doing?” He asked. Sonic shimmied in his tote for his book.

“Just gonna read for a bit before we all sit and have lunch, Shadow got me this new book about a wandering hero chao, talk about way past cool!” He proudly showed the cover to his little brother who awed at it. They chatted for a bit more until Tails decided to head to the pool. Sonic scanned the area and his gaze landed on Shadow who seemed to be very deep in discussion about something with Rouge and Knuckles. They stood in the shallow end of the pool. He wondered what they could be talking about, for all he knew it could have been about the chaos emeralds which wouldn’t be surprising. Rouge had quite an obsession with beautiful gems, Shadow was chaos-gifted and Knuckles was the guardian of the Master Emerald. He hummed to himself.

“Sitting all by yourself huh?” a soft voice spoke beside him, he turned his gaze and saw his dear friend Amy. She beamed at him, wearing a white polka-dotted red one-piece with a small frilly skirt.

“It’s cool, I was just gonna read. Blaze couldn’t make it?” he asked as she sat in the chair next to him. 

“No, she had princess duties to attend to today, but that’s okay.” She sighed wistfully. They both watched their friends, Tails, and Cream were splashing around with Cheese. Meanwhile Shadow, Rouge, and Knuckles headed farther into the pool. Slowly wading in as Rouge continued to converse with the two. 

“Being a royal must be tough, huh?” He asked, making small talk. Amy nodded but wasn’t at all melancholy about it.

“Yeah, but I’m proud of her for it. I’m going to swim with the others, I hope you enjoy your book, we’ll get you when it’s time to eat.” She smiled and waved goodbye. He waved back and settled himself on the lawn chair, resting against it as he opened to a quarterway through the book to read. The sun shone brightly and the cool July breeze swept through. He inhaled and exhaled deeply, completely relaxing in his seat.

The sun beamed high above, splashes and laughter could be heard. At some point Shadow let himself drift to the side of the pool, floating freely but his arms crossed and resting on the concrete. His eyes closed as he just soaked the warmth in from his dark fur. Rouge had left the pool some time ago but wandered towards Shadow, two drinks in hand. She sat at the edge of the pool, dipping her feet in and then her calves, next to Shadow’s head. Feeling the water ripple around him and the shifting of the bat as she sat down, he raised his head from his arms and glanced at her. She handed him a drink.

“What’s this?” he inquired, taking it from her, it had a purple mini umbrella above a colorful pink smoothie.

“Strawberry and banana smoothie, thought you might like to give it a try.” Rouge stated as she sat down with her own drink. Shadow nodded thanks and took a sip, he hummed his approval, he rested his back against the wall of the pool beside Rouge.

“So how have things been with you and Blue?” she asked casually, sipping her drink. Shadow gave off a very small smile. 

“Pretty well, actually.” he states contently.

“You’re not gonna go into detail?” She croons, he shakes his head, a notable smug smirk.

“That’s so like you to not go into specifics, well as long as you two are happy.” she chortles. 

She’s quick to cover her face with her outstretched wing from a small splash led by small giggles from the younger members of the group. 

Shadow however wasn’t as fortunate and his quills and fur became soaked, even his beautiful fluffy chest fur was flattened down by water. He whipped his head around quickly to find Tails and Cream roaring with laughter a few feet away. He even noticed that Sonic was lightly chuckling before going back to his book. Shadow huffed playfully and he splashed back, not as forceful. Cream squealed with delight as Cheese soared above her mischievously.

Tails and Cream put their arm lower in the water to create a bigger wave as they whisked their arms forward. Shadow shielded his face instinctively and splashed back in playful retaliation. This went on for a few minutes until Shadow thought of an idea. Using his chaos energy, he aimed his chaos blast at the water in front of him and it made a fifteen-foot-tall wave, Cream and Tails squealed in delight but as the wave came crashing down outside of the pool, Shadow felt a pit of dread in his stomach as he watched it crash in the direction of the beach chairs. Where Sonic sat peacefully. 

It happened so quickly, the poor cobalt hedgehog felt a harsh cold smack over his entire body. His quills puffed and sharpened and he flattened himself rigidly against the chair, eyes wide in terror as he inhaled sharply. He coughed and hacked a few times, eyes glazed over in fear.

Shadow quickly waded over to the other side of the pool, fumbling out apologies, trying to defuse the situation but Sonic couldn’t hear anything, he was shaking so violently that he scrambled to get up, dropping his soaked book in the process with a harsh splat. The blue blur sped out of the gated pool area so fast that Shadow had barely made it out of the pool. Everyone began to voice out their concerns and worry but Shadow didn’t listen, he was too focused on the speedster that left, He haphazardly put his skates on and yanked a towel off of one of the chairs that managed to avoid the wave.

“I’ll handle it, stay here.” he stated sternly and skated off. He wasn’t sure which way he took off but he wouldn’t stop until he found him. He zig-zagged through the woods, peering through the brush and foliage, it wasn’t long until he found blue at the base of a big tree.

Sonic sat down, back quills scraped against the tree as he quietly hyperventilated into his knees.

Shadow felt dreadful, he should have thought his actions through, he shouldn’t have let himself get carried away like that and now his lover was suffering the consequences of his actions. He needed to approach this carefully, Sonic wasn’t always rational when panicked. He knew of his fear of water but had never really known the extent of it, he wished that he didn’t have to see it firsthand, it was such a heart-wrenching thing to witness. 

Shadow appeared in front of him, purposefully rustling the bushes to announce his presence.

“Sonic? Can you hear me?” Shadow carefully crouched in front of the frightened hog, who still was clutching his legs tightly, breathing heavily into his knees, eyes squeezed shut tight. His ears were pinned against his head and his body was wracked with shivers. No doubt from fear and the damp quills and fur of his body chilling him to the bone in the shade of the trees. Hesitant hands reached but stalled, uncertain of how to proceed, how to comfort. 

Sonic’s breathing became more erratic, choking back, he threw his head back slightly, his own hands reaching for his throat. He was struggling to regulate his breathing and Shadow took action. With cautious handling, Shadow gently grasped Sonic’s wrists and pulled them to his chest. He smoothed his lover’s palm flat against his heart and drew him close to his body, shushing him soothingly, pulling Sonic against his chest. A blue ear flicked against a soft fluffy chest, searching for a beat he didn’t know he wanted. Shadow shuffled close to the tree, leaning his side against the bark, as Sonic curled instinctively closer to him, seeking his warmth and gentle touches. He gently stroked through cobalt quills that grew lax with each touch. His breathing began evening out slowly over time as Shadow whispered simple soothing phrases, softly peppering kisses against his forehead.

Sonic practically melted, deflating against a strong cobalt body, nuzzling his nose into downy soft chest fur. 

Shadow internally breathes a sigh of relief, glad that his instincts led him correctly. They sat like that for quite some time. Minutes had passed, maybe even half an hour.

Sonic scooched closer and began to fiddle with Shadow’s inhibitor rings, feeling rather awkward. The weight of what just transpired finally settled in. Sure they had been dating for a while but he never thought he’d embarrass himself like that in front of Shadow of all people, he felt his cheeks grow rosy.

“I-I’m sorry you had to see that…” Sonic mumbled bashfully, averting his gaze as best as he could. Shadow couldn’t help but chuff playfully.

“There is nothing to be sorry about, I’m the one who's sorry, I- I should have been more careful. I had no idea your fear of water was this bad, you shouldn’t need to feel as if you have to hide this side of you. We’re partners.” He spoke softly, leaving a small peck at the base of his ear, it twitched from the ticklish display. Sonic hummed and pressed a chaste kiss against the nape of his neck.

“Although… the reaction I saw today, there was more to it, wasn’t there?” Sonic froze, his eyes blanked and Shadow realized his misstep.

“Forgive me, you don’t need to answer that if you’re not comfortable.” He backtracked. Sonic sat up a bit and huffed softly.

“No no, it’s- it’s fine. It’s just not something I’ve ever really told anyone… but I don’t mind telling you… if that’s okay?” He couldn’t help but hesitate, unsure. Shadow gave him a nod of reassurance and Sonic exhaled shakily.

“W-well I’ve never been a fan of water, I can’t swim. Obviously.” He chuckled awkwardly as he rested his head against his white chest fur again.

“But- my time on the… Death Egg wasn’t very helpful either.” He began to fidget with the soft fluffy chest fur, anxious. Shadow furrowed his eyebrows, feeling a pit in his stomach with where this was going.

“They um… tortured me a lot and well waterboarding was…the most common.” He felt his voice begin to fizzle out, waver and his lip quivering back a small sob. He clung to Shadow, he didn’t really understand it but he felt shameful about it, afraid to look into his lover’s eyes. Afraid that he’d think less of him or that he was weak, he knew deep down he wouldn’t but the what-ifs always nagged at the back of his mind.

Shadow felt his blood turn cold. He knew that Sonic had endured a lot during those six months but seeing Sonic after those events, with his signature smirk and goofy behavior, he had just assumed he would be fine, had he been hiding all this the whole time? Would he need to suggest counseling? He wasn’t against the idea, he himself did it but would only offer if Sonic was interested. His mind swirled with worry for his boyfriend and rage towards Eggman and Infinite, all the ways he could make them pay for everything.

“Hey, I can hear you thinking from here, I’m okay now, that’s what matters.” Sonic smiled solemnly and sat up. He cupped Shadow’s face and kissed him deeply. Shadow held his hands and looked into his emerald eyes

“You know if you ever need to talk, I know that’s not something we’re very skilled at, but I’m here… if you need me. There are professionals to that I-” Shadow cleared his throat, a little embarrassed to admit he had a therapist.

“I attend therapy every now and then, if you’re interested I can help you with that.” Shadow shied a bit, holding hands as he lowered them down to their laps. Sonic squeezed them in return and smiled softly.

“We can talk more about that later, we should get back, I feel bad that the others are probably really worried, ugh I’m embarrassed.” Sonic cringed a bit, ears downcast a bit as scrunched his nose and gave an awkward smile.

“It’s alright, I’m notifying Rouge, we’re going home. She’ll swing by with the remainder of our belongings-” Shadow paused in the middle of his message. And looked up with a grimace. 

“I- apologize. I ruined your book, I promise I’ll replace it tomorrow.” 

Sonic beamed at him with a dopey grin.

“Have I told you how much I love you?” He wrapped his peach arms around broad ebony shoulders and peppered silly kisses to a tan check. Shadow’s heart fluttered giddily.

“Practically every morning and- I love you as well.” They shared a very slow and very tender kiss, Shadow leaning more into Sonic’s space. Sonic lost his balance and flopped on his back, quills splayed in the pale brown dirt. He giggled infectiously.

“When we get home, can we do snacks and a movie date?” He asked excitedly, Shadow hovered over him, striped arms boxing him in. He smiled and shook his head playfully. He sat back up, pulling Sonic along with him.

“Of course, let me finish the message.” They stood up and brushed the dirt off themselves and Shadow sent his message. 

They linked hands and began heading home. Walking through patches of shade and sunlight that beamed through the leaves. Sonic hummed a playful tune and swayed their joined hands back and forth along to the beat.

“So what are we watching?” Shadow inquires.

“Oh, obviously The Barbie movie.” He teased. Shadow looked begrudgingly at him with a scowl.

“Fine, if that’s what you want, love.” Sonic knew he was feigning disinterest. His black tail was a dead giveaway that he was excited to watch it.

“Oh definitely.” Sonic bumped his hip against Shadow’s, egging him on as he giggled.

“Come on! Race ya, slowpoke!” He sped off before Shadow could say anything. The ebony hedgehog exhaled softly through his nose, smiling warmly, and raced after the blue blur.

I am so late...

But uh enjoy the angst guys, there's a war happening between me and @catiecat1320

Sonadowtober will continue, I will get back on schedule I promise

[pajulammas]

12 and sonadow!!!!! :> for the fic prompt meme

(This accidentally became longer than I intended-)

12. ‘you could say I’m fond of you.’

Sonic and Shadow crossed the finish line at the exact same time. They kept pushing and tackling each other even after that, eventually both collapsing on the grass. Sonic couldn’t suppress a laugh as he spread his arms wide and gazed at the sky. He could swear he heard a quiet chuckle escape from Shadow’s lips in turn.

“I won, you know,” Sonic chuckled as he tried to catch his breath.

“It was merely a tie, you just managed to catch up to me at the last second by some miracle,” Shadow huffed as he sat up, dusting dirt off his shoulders.

“Nah, my nose was the first thing to pass the finish line,” Sonic said.

“Tch. Of course it was, when you have such a big one. And noses don’t count. The winner is whose chest first passes the line,” Shadow pointed out as he tried to catch his breath.

Sonic sat up and raised a brow as he eyed Shadow’s chest. “Then you’re cheating, since you’ve clearly backcombed your chest fluff to make it stick out more!”

Shadow hummed in amusement as he fixed his quills carefully, soon doing the same to his chest fluff.

Sonic couldn’t take his eyes off of Shadow – he was completely fascinated by him. Usually when they raced, his mysterious rival would leave as soon as they had finished. But lately, it had become more common for him to stay for a little longer. They never really did anything specific, usually they just stayed in each other’s presence. There were no words, just the two of them in complete and comfortable silence.

He had to admit that he really appreciated the company. Despite them being opposites in many ways, it often felt like Shadow just understood him. He didn’t question or criticize him and let Sonic do his own thing. Sure, sometimes he wanted to do things his way, and he rarely explained his vision. But there still was a certain unspoken respect between the two. And he never ceased to give him a good challenge; he always offered him a chance to better himself.

“Punch me if this gets too sappy or anything,” Sonic said with a grin, “But I gotta say I like being around you.”

Shadow glanced towards Sonic, his ears twitching, eager to listen.

“I’ve just noticed that you’ve started to hang out with me more,” Sonic continued casually as he rubbed his nose. “Heck, you’ve even agreed to race more often! Not to mention you’re not as angry as you used to be whenever you lose to me. Which is almost always, by the way.”

Shadow scrunched his nose and huffed. Originally, he wanted to race Sonic to prove himself, to show that the Ultimate Lifeform could easily beat the Fastest Thing Alive. The only thing that mattered was winning. The only thing he wanted was to beat Sonic. But the more they competed, the more he realized that the races could also be… Fun. 

Winning didn’t matter as much to him, although he did have several victories. The competitions themselves and – to his horror – getting to be with Sonic were what he was looking forward to the most. They were rivals and equals. Maybe it was okay to want to spend time with him. No one else could challenge them as well as they could challenge each other. And when they would team up against a common enemy, they were practically unstoppable.

“Hmh, well,” Shadow hummed, lifting his gaze towards the clouds in the sky, “You could say I’m fond of you.”

Sonic’s ears perked, unsure if he heard correctly. He looked away and smiled to himself, feeling his cheeks heat up. He hadn’t dared to dream that his rival could regard him in such a sentimental way. But at the same time, it simply felt natural – he was quite fond of Shadow, too.

Shadow got up.

“But I will beat you next time, hedgehog,” he added and walked away.

[purplegays]

Which sonic characters do u think would go to the barbie movie?

Nice to talk to ya again buddy, it’s been too long 🥹

(Before I start, they’re all adults here… I rarely ever use their canonical ages because… idk, their personalities just don’t seem to match their ages to me. And eight-year-old flying planes and killing people just feels weird. So yeah, aged up.)

Ok so this is how I think it would go. Amy would see a trailer for the Barbie movie on TV or smth and she begs Sonic to go with her because she wants to see it but she doesn’t want to go alone. But Sonic doesn’t want to go alone with Amy, so he asks Knuckles to go with him. But Knuckles is busy because he’s doing another MLP marathon, so Sonic has no choice but to ask Shadow.

Well Shadow was going to go by himself anyway, but now this gives him an excuse to go without having to admit that he actually wants to go. So to Sonic’s surprise, Shadow agrees to go.

They arrive at the movie theater, and they get popcorn, but they just get two big ones to share because they’re pretty big and three would be too much. Sonic resigns himself to sharing a popcorn bowl with Amy.

Just as the movie starts, Amy complains that she wants more butter on the popcorn, so she takes the tub she and Sonic were using and leaves the theater. But then she just… doesn’t come back. Sonic starts to get a bit worried about her, but Amy disappears like this all the time. Maybe she got her period or something.

Fifteen minutes, pass, and by now they’re really starting to wonder where Amy is, but truth be told they’re so engrossed in the movie that they’ve kind of forgotten how much time has passed. Not really thinking, Sonic reached into Shadow’s popcorn bowl. Then he does it again.

“What are you doing?” Shadow says, his deadpan obvious even with just a whisper.

Sonic jolts back to reality, looking at his hand in Shadow’s popcorn bowl. But he doesn’t take it out. “Uh… can we share? Amy kinda stole all my popcorn.”

“No. This is mine.”

Sonic gives him the biggest puppy-dog eyes ever and asks, “Pleeeeeease, Shadow? I need popcorn for the movie!”

Shadow hates how that makes him blush. “Fine. Take it.” And he shoves the bowl toward Sonic.

Sonic shoves it back. “No, I don’t want it all! I want to share.”

On the screen, Barbie tells one of her friends that sharing is caring.

“See?” Sonic adds.

“Shut up.” Shadow stuffs his mouth full with a handful of popcorn.

Over the course of the movie, Sonic leans closer and closer to the popcorn bowl—and to Shadow. Shadow wants to snap at Sonic to back off, but he’s too embarrassed that it’s affecting him in the first place.

Amy returns to them passionately making out, the end.

[carrionmeat]

I think I would've liked to stay dead.

A three-part story of Shadow's life after death, and the consequences of falling for someone who doesn't feel the same.

New Sonadow one-shot is up! ^^

Chapter Summary: This takes place later in the future. I think they're somewhere in their early 30s in this one. This one's a little angsty but I don't think it's suuuper angsty if that makes sense.

More or less, Sonic's leg gets crushed and Shadow goes on a rampage.

garlic blues-(sonic accdently got himself sick by drinking the blood of someone who had a garlicy snack/don't ask how that works idk/ so now hes stuck at team darks place till hes better, luckily shadows here to reluctently help-sonadow)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

shadow had just got home and expected the usual sight of sonic sleeping on his floor since the window was open, but what he saw was actually sonic on his floor, awake and looking slightly in pain? "you ok down there?" shadow asked as he approached the blue vampire, "well, no not really" sonic replied in a strained voice "drank the blood of a guy who ate a whole chunk of garlic". shadow looked confused he then asked, "so are you dying?", "no I'm not dying" sonic replied "I'm just sick"." like regular sick or SICK sick?" sonic sighed at shadows question then said, "like I'm in pain and I feel like I might throw up sick".

"well if you do throw up, it better not be on my carpet," he says while poking his foot on sonic foot, sonic chuckled and said "alright. alright" he then wobbly gets up and slowly attempts to go to the guest room. shadow sighed then gently picked sonic up "I can tell you can't walk or fly in your condition blue star, so drastic times call for drastic measures". sonic was surprised at first then chuckled and said "Okie Dokie shadow box".

shadow takes sonic to the guest room, gently places him on the bed, and covers him up."do regular painkillers work on you?" shadow asked as he was prepping a heated blanket, "well yes" sonic replied "but it doesn't fully kill the pain". shadow nodded "that's what I thought, here take these," he says as he hands sonic two painkiller pills, and sonic takes them. shadow then hands sonic a fully warmed heated blanket, "what's this?" sonic asked. shadow sighed and answered "it's a heated blanket it'll help soothe the pain, take it." he shoves the blanket into sonics hands "heh ok ok, sheesh" he puts the heated blanket around his stomach and lays down.

"ya know you can be sweet when ya wanna be." sonic cheekily says "ok, now shut it and sleep" shadow replies, sonic chuckles and says "ok my shadow box, goodnight". shadow softly smiles "goodnight my blue star" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- vampire night terrors-(sonics staying the night at shadows place, alls calm and quiet until night terrors horrorfiy out vampire friend sonic, wonder how shadows gonna deal with this-sonadow-TW:major character "death") ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- sonic opens his eyes to see a dark blues void, he looks around confused. he then spots a scene of shadow fighting off a bunch of G.U.N soldiers, he walks up to the scene but can't enter it. it's like a force field is stopping him, so he sticks to cheering from the sidelines. all is fine and dandy and shadow beats up the soldiers with ease, but then he doesn't watch his back. sonic yelled for shadow to look out but shadow didn't hear. it happened in a flash, shadow had been stabbed, intensely stabbed. shadow fell to his knees and sonic could only watch in horror, as shadow finally saw him and gave him a weak smile, and fell to the ground. then suddenly sonic woke up in a jolt.

shadow feels the blankets move and is awoken by sonics gasp of air, he groggily. he asked while rubbing his eye "blue star, why on earth are you up" but before shadow could get another word in sonic hugged him. shadow thinking sonic just wants a midnight snack says "you could have just asked if you wanted-"but was interrupted mid-sentence by the sound of crying, he holds sonic close and lets him cry into his shoulder. "hey, hey it's ok" shadow said in a comforting tone "I'm right here" -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

fun times-(team sonic+shadow have a game day at amys house, wonder what fun chaos insues-no ship) -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

it's a nice day at amys house, amys making some cookies for a nice little get-together she's having with her friends. a fun sleepover with team sonic. oh and shadow will be there too since sonic invited him personally. tails flys in with some bags of chips "are the cookies ready yet?" he asks as he places the bags of chips on the counter behind amy. "almost tails" amy replied, "just gotta get them on a baking sheet and place em in the oven.". tails lands on a stool next to her and asks "can I help?". amy smiled in reply the says "well sure thing, you can put the chocolate chips on the top". "yay" exclaimed tails in excitement.

once the cookies were done it was now time to wait for the others to get here. tails sits on the couch while amy sits on the swinging chair outside, she suddenly spots knuckles and shadow and waves them over. "why hello boys its so great to see you could make it" amy says with glee, "couldn't miss it for the world" knuckles replies. shadow nods in agreement to knuckle's statement, "well what are you waiting for?" amy asked, "come on in sonic should be back any minute". "well that's just like sonic" shadow chuckles "always late", "oh give him a break"amy replied in a huff "he's the hero of mobius he had a right to be a bit late". shadow sighs then says "whatever let's head inside".

once sonic got there the group had a great time, playing video games, eating some good snacks, and just hanging out. it's now late at night and everyone's asleep, all of a sudden a thump in the night woke knuckles and amy."what was that?" nervously whispers amy to knuckles, "uhh i-i don't know, should we go check it out?" replied knuckles. amy nervously nods and they both get up and look around. after a bit of looking they bump into sonic and shadow which almost gives them a heart attack since they didn't know they were up.

"why are you up? did you guys hear the noise too?" amy asks the boys, and they both nod. after a bit of searching they find that it was just a raccoon from the human world, they chased it through half of mobius but got it back through the portal it snuck through. at that point, the sun was rising. so once everyone got home, they all went to bed -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

19 with sonadow for the fic prompt meme? You write them so well I couldn't not ask for them too :3

(YIPPEE Sonadow my beloved!! I love how these are like. Soft prompts. And I still don't make these scenes very romantic KFHSKLFHLKS)

19. ‘it made me think of you.’

“Hedgehog,” a deep, monotone voice called Sonic.

It was early autumn, and Sonic was relaxing in the shade of a tree, his back against its trunk. He opened one eye and glanced towards Shadow standing right in front of him. His hands were behind his back, which was unusual for him – Usually he kept his palms visible, either on top of his chest with his arms crossed or clenched tightly against his sides. This unusual pose made him look almost shy or nervous, if it wasn’t for the intense stare and serious face. Regardless, Sonic found it a little adorable.

“What’s up, Shadow?” he asked.

“I found this,” Shadow replied and moved his arms, showing off a knitted scarf.

It was a long scarf with white fringes, consisting of white, light blue and pink stripes. It was clearly meant for humans considering how long and wide it was – but for a tiny hedgehog it would be just as cozy.

“Found it? Like a lost item on the ground, or bought from a store?” Sonic chuckled with a shrug.

The scarf looked brand new, but he still found it hard to believe that Shadow would buy such a scarf. The colors didn’t look like something he would wear, although they would look nice against his dark fur. Maybe it was for Rouge? She was known to wear pink and white, after all.

“The latter,” Shadow said and placed the scarf into Sonic’s hand, “It made me think of you.”

Sonic looked at the scarf for a moment, then glanced at Shadow with a raised brow. Shadow’s face didn’t change, so Sonic wrapped the scarf around his neck once around, letting it hang loosely. It was a nice scarf; it was warm, and the wool didn’t feel too itchy. But he was still a little confused why Shadow would get him one.

Sonic grinned and gave Shadow a thumbs up, “Thanks! Why so, though?”

“It has similar colored stripes as that button on your hoodie,” Shadow said and pointed at said button.

It was a round pin button consisting of five stripes: the top and bottom stripes light blue, the middle one white, and the two in the middle of them pink. While Sonic didn’t wear clothes that often, his trusty red and white hoodie came in handy whenever the weather got cooler. And since it was his favorite hoodie, he displayed his pin button on its chest proudly.

“I’ve seen those colors in that order in many places. Is it a symbol of sorts?” Shadow asked.

Sonic nodded: “Oh yeah, it’s a flag.”

“Which country?” Shadow asked.

“No no, it’s a pride flag. The transgender one to be exact,” Sonic explained, trying to hold back his laughter.

Shadow tilted his head – that was a new term for him. “Transgender?”

“It basically means that your gender differs from the one you were assigned at birth,” Sonic explained with a smile.

He didn’t talk about his past often, but Shadow was someone he could trust. His brooding rival had shown his vulnerable side to him many times, demanding that Sonic should never let anyone know about it. So, he could trust Shadow to do the same with his personal life. Even though him being trans wasn’t really a secret, per se.

“For example, I am a guy, but I wasn’t always one. Or, technically I was, like deep down. I kinda knew it from a young age, but it took me a while to realize it,” Sonic added, lifting his gaze towards the sky. He gazed at the horizon with a contented smile. “And I couldn’t be happier with who I am today.”

“I see. So, you don’t let the circumstances of your birth determine who you are, but forge your own identity instead?” Shadow asked.

Sonic let out a lighthearted snort. Shadow was so dramatic, but in a very endearing way – it was clear his words were genuine.

“Yeah, you could put it that way,” Sonic grinned.

“I can respect that,” Shadow nodded and crossed his arms, “But it won’t stop me from beating you in the battlefield.”

“Sure thing, buddy. But come sit with me for a moment,” Sonic said and patted the empty spot right next to him. “Five minutes of rest, and then we can fight.”

Shadow huffed and sat down, closing his eyes and leaning his shoulder against Sonic’s. Sonic turned his face towards him, giving him a fond look. He really liked being around his rival during gentle moments like these. Even when he came to him looking for a battle, he was still thoughtful – Sonic would have lots of use for that scarf now that the weather was getting colder every day.

“Tch. You need five minutes to prepare for your loss?” Shadow mumbled.

“Hah, I’m so gonna kick your ass in a moment, Shadster.”

Chapter 3 of my Sonadow fic is done! How I am managing to write one a day while at work I do not know lol. I thought it’d take a couple weeks to write all this but here we are. Anyways here’s the chapter summary below!

Chapter Summary:

Whoever wins in spars gets to ask the other anything they want. Shadow takes advantage of this to ask Sonic about something he’s been curious about.

This fic focuses on Sonic being trans! It’s also implied that Shadow is agender, he just doesn’t label it. Similar to the last one, it’s not something that will be mentioned much, but I thought the idea of Sonic coming out to Shadow was cute :)

To infiltrate a GUN base wasn't on Sonic's agenda for today, but after a rather heavy fight with Eggman, Tails had accidentally found several... Interesting files in his supercomputer which read about a Top Secret experiment, The name? Project: Shadow.

Or

What if Sonic had found Shadow instead of Eggman. A reimagine of SA2
