MEGA SPOILERS FOR @magicstormfrostfire‘s FIC “Rose Drops” under the cut!!!!! The wonderful cover art I added is screenshotted from the fic, I did not draw it and all credits go to the original artist.

Ok. So. I just finished Rose Drops. And. Wow. Ok. How dare you make me feel emotions. I get TWO CHAPTERS IN and I’m already sobbing because AMY ROSE IS DEAD?? And she left Sonic and Shadow a secret roadtrip plan to make them closer???? And Vanilla is now having to be taken care of by Cream because she’s so depressed about Amy, who was like a second daughter to her?????? SOBBING. SCREAMING. BOUNCING OFF THE WALLS. THROWING UP A LITTLE BIT.

AND THEN!!! Sonic and Shadow decide to go on the roadtrip to honor Amy’s memory. And they’re going to places of sentimental value. And then Knuckles uses the Master Emerald to connect Sonic and Shadow’s Chaos energies. So now they can feel what the other’s feeling. Whatever. If you care.

And now I dislike Jet the Hawk even more than I used to (he’s a mega douche in this fic. Seriously, fuck that guy. Never have I wanted so badly to commit war crimes against a bird).

And Sonic and Shadow start getting closer (I knew this would happen, I read the tags but MY HEART). And they start to flirt a lil’ bit (mostly Sonic but still). And at this point I’m so invested in this fic that I put it down for OVER A MONTH because if I look at it for too long I get so violently silly that the capillaries in my forehead start exploding. And when I finally pick it back up at 4 in the morning I’m crying all over again because I forgot that in this fic I’m watching Sonic and his friends (but mostly Sonic) go through all the stages of grief. And then Sonic and Shadow have intense say gex (nice).

And. Just. This fic. This is one of those fics that changes you as a human being, that make you see the whole world in a different light. Your entire worldview tilts on its axis and you emerge exactly the same as you were before and yet unfathomably different from who you’ve ever been.

And then you realize at 8:35 in the morning that one of the best pieces of literature you’ve even read is an angst-riddled hurt/comfort gay smut fic about two cartoon hedgehogs who probably have ADHD and autism. 69/10 I absolutely recommend (Rose Drops on Ao3 by Magicstorm101).
