#sonadow is mostly only for the prime versions

[asksonicverse]

Welcome to the Sonic Verse!

Here, different versions of Sonic and Shadow are inexplicably trapped in this big white room with strange properties…

How did they get here? How will they get out? All to find out!

For now, questions and other items are occasionally dropped from the ceiling! Let’s meet everyone, shall we?

Meet our main cast of Sonic’s!

*Snap is from a little bit after the Sonic Adventure 2 games. A reference… to something?

*Ego comes from the Sonic X Anime. Named for the weird confident way he talks.

*King Arthur is a “fanon” take on what a real King Arthur Sonic could be like from Sonic and the Black Knight.

*Classic hails from the older Sonic games, named after his era. He cannot/does not talk.

*Prism comes from Sonic Prime. He’s got a bit of experience with this alternate universe stuff…

*Pipsqueak is from the Sonic & Friends shorts and merch line.

*Bandi comes from the Sonic Boom universe, named after his Bandanna and Bandages.

*Latch comes from the Sonic Live Action Movie verse, named after his connected eyes.

*Eight originates from the Sonic IDW comics, placed just after the eradication of the metal virus, he spends most of his time catching up on sleep.

And now onto our Shadows!

*OG comes from the Sonic Adventure 2 games, noticeably Low-Poly along with Snap…

*Mania, bastard, comes from the Sonic X Anime.

*Sir Lancelot is from Sonic and the Black Knight: a version of Shadow who’s always gone by Lancelot.

*Little guy is from the Sonic & Friends shorts and merch line.

*Paradox is from the Sonic Prime universe! Out of everyone, he and Prism are taking the lead on finding out what’s going on.

*Boost heeds from the Sonic Boom universe. He is the most aggressive and grumpy of all the Shadows.

*Reeves comes from the Sonic Live Action Movie verse. Latch give him the nickname based on a so called “national treasure” whatever that means.

*Shade is from the Sonic IDW Comics. Likely one of the weaker Shadows at the moment unfortunately.

Any fanfic recommendations where it's basically Sonic Prime but Sonic also has other versions of himself?

I only have one adjacent to that idea and it’s a Sonadow shipping fic, so it might not be what you’re looking for. But if you like Sonadow, I would give it a shot! I hope you find more of what you’re looking for either way!

It’s called Shattered Realities by GoldenAla22! As summarized by the creator: “Or basically Sonic and Shadow travel the shatterverse and end up in a reality where they're both dating.”

I don’t think I finished reading it but I really liked it in the beginning! On my rec page I wrote “If Sonic Prime was gayer. 20/10 GOD TIER PLOT AND WRITING.”

Sorry I couldn’t be of more help! I mostly read Sonadow fics in the general Sonic tag

(If you don't like mentions of a slash ship featuring certain anthro hedgehogs just scroll past!!!! Quickly!!!)

TL;DR (You can skip this blurb if you want the full story)

I went from being like neutrally aware of the Sonic franchise characters' existence to totally obsessed practically overnight with Shadow and Sonadow. Went full speed ahead brainrot on them because of a freaking dream where cartoon (unspecified) Sonic & co accidentally entered the dimension of live action Sonic. Shenanigans ensued, most notably a dreambrain-hatched live action Shadow fighting his cartoon version because of his attitude toward Sonic & co.

(End of TL;DR)

[Text wall below for details]

A few nights ago I had a random as hell dream about Sonic the hedgehog and I am now here I have watched freaking Sonic Prime on Netflix because the mental images wouldn't leave me alone so I treated it like a weird message from the universe e send Help

My only previous interactions with sonic stuff was some person I followed on twitter for something else posting art of it (mega long time ago), watching the sonic live action movies why I have no idea (super long time ago), and that joke game that went surprisingly hard The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog which I completed even though the minigames to progress got hard AF for me (pretty long time ago) and like even before all that I knew of Sonic from ads, memes, and various posts on social medias. But I didn't fully engage with it.

Side note: the twitter posting was mostly sonadow and I would look it over like uh-huh ok the vibes check out and just keep scrolling like lsdfkjdskl but that is pretty much the main reason I knew Sonic/Shadow existed but at the time I didn't actively seek it out or try to learn more.

Onward...

My brain is so so so weird and the dream was somewhat vivid like watching a movie omg where the live action sonic and pals met the cartoon versions of the characters?? even though I never watched any of the cartoons before??? as such it wasn't a specific series, I just knew it in the dream they were from a generalized cartoon universe

Specifically it was Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles in the movie group, while the cartoon group had Amy and Rouge instead of the other two alongside Sonic, who I only even really knew about because of the April Fool's game. And Shadow was also there in both groups because why not I guess and they (the Shadows) fought each other because the movie one thought the cartoon one was a jerk lmao idk? Yeah my subconscious decided it couldn't wait for Sonic 3 and made up its own version of movie Shadow.

Early in the dream there was also a little kid clone of Sonic who belonged with the cartoon group. There were some cute interactions but in nonsensical dream fashion that character just disappeared later like he was never there lol

…There was some plot about the cartoon group needing to get back to their dimension because Sonic accidentally got them blasted into the movie one somehow... after watching Sonic Prime I'm like my dream was so FREAKISHLY similar to that show's plot, but I SWEAR I knew nothing about the premise of SP before the dream. Although, in the dream they were like... multidimensional travellers doing hero stuff and had met other variants before, just this time it wasn't intentional and it messed something up.

Uh getting off track... (which the dream itself did a lot tbf)

Anyway, what I remember is the movie dimension made the cartoon group look in the more realistic style so at first Shadow thought the actual movie group were the ones from his dimension (Shadow & Amy got separated from Sonic & Rouge) and was rude to them because he was so ticked off blaming Sonic for being a dumbass and yelling at Tails for not preventing whatever happened or something, so actual movie Shadow appeared like. don't talk to my friends that way asshole and beat the absolute shit out of him. There was an explanation Tails gave that the movie Shadow was more powerful for some reason I don't remember and Amy told cartoon Shadow to stop trying to beat him. But yeah bro was so pissed movie Sonic had to step in and physically stop him because he wouldn't listen to and/or overpowered anyone else. He reminded Shadow that the other Shadow was still him, in a sense.

Cartoon Sonic and Rouge appeared and Sonic started bickering with cartoon Shadow. but the movie versions were best friends so they were watching them like wtf is wrong with y'all. Movie Shadow got fed up quickly and punched cartoon Shadow again and stood protectively in front of both Sonic versions bristling and wouldn't take his eyes off his counterpart. Cartoon Shadow was so goddamn confused by Shadow's protectiveness and asked how Sonic had made movie Shadow his loyal bodyguard (derogatory) Amy and Rouge like explained the backstory to the movie crew, which is fuzzy to me but it was something along the lines of, Shadow had been brainwashed to rival Sonic, tricked to think that Sonic was evil (unbeknownst to that Sonic who in his pov had this random edgy hedgehog start attacking him out of nowhere during a mission) and they had a lot of intense fighting before Shadow found out the truth. But the two of them never quite got over the misunderstanding. Listen I didn't know Shadow's backstory, literally none of it, but I have read the wiki since ok

Meanwhile movie Shadow, in the dream, was made and raised in a lab and similarly believed he was made as Sonic's rival/equal. Behind the scenes some government thing or whatever were afraid of Sonic's power and wanted a backup plan. But some evil guy stole and unleashed Shadow. At first it was basically just a duel, Shadow admired Sonic, but the evil guy had put a chip in his head that when activated made him try to kill Sonic. Eventually he was subdued and the chip deactivated- and despite everything Sonic insisted Shadow come with him to his home and the rest was history. This unfolded in like flashback style.

There was a funny part where Shadow questioned Sonic's home like "What kind of base of operations is this?" In a very unimpressed tone. Sonic said sarcastically "Oh, sorry if you were expecting my own Fortress of Solitude." And I guess Shadow was allowed to watch tv because he got the reference and shot back "Does that make me Lois Lane?" Didn't make a whole lot of sense sdlfkjds but movie Shadow delivered this line very confidently and flirtatious and just walked away leaving Sonic shocked LOL

And then later Shadow complained that the government people would always rewind and loop the villainy parts and he never got to see if Lois and Clark kissed (It's been too long since I watched any Superman movies so I couldn't tell you if this makes sense) and Knuckles teased him for being a romantic, and then the whole team binge watched every Superman movie.

In the "present" at some point movie Sonic and Shadow pulled their alternate versions aside and like told them off for being mean to each other lmao cartoon Sonic was kinda like uwu I didn't know Shadow had feelings he's like a lone wolf and like was surprised by his counterpart's vehemence. Movie Sonic told cartoon Sonic that Shadow can be a great friend if you give him a chance. I don't remember the Shadowses convo much but it was a lot more chill despite the fighting before (though still prickly) because Shadow's reasons were more valid and it was more of a pep talk from movie Shadow that if he opened up more it might give the others around him more opportunity to know and accept him.

I remember there was this one specific heavy emotional line in the dream that stuck with me when I woke up said by cartoon Shadow about Sonic, "He's my best friend but I'm obviously not his" DFKLJDSKJ

Additional small detail that movie Sonic and Shadow had known each other for over 2 years during dream events. And they were quite close and in sync. But still bantery

My brain basically conjured a LITERAL FANFICTION in my sleep and I have been thinking about it a lot What's hilarious is I knew next to fuck all about these characters my brain pulled the plot points of this dream out of its ass

Typed out, this dream probably sounds a lot longer than it was... the "scenes" just felt oddly detailed for how mashed together and quick passing they were.

But yeah I kept thinking about the dream and like daydreaming more scenes and it somehow turned even more into Sonadow (like, I imagined Cartoon Sonic & Shadow finding out in a very abrupt way that the movie versions were an item. <- to my delight I did find a fic with a premise very similar to this just not movie universe related. Also played with the idea of Sonic and/or Shadow accidentally kissing the wrong counterpart in their excitement at being reunited which Awakened Some Things for the receiver of the unexpected passion😂 )

The dream kinda acted as a base that inspired daydreams to spiral out from my brain without permission but I just... mentally jumped into it because ships sometimes grab you like that.

And Sonic Prime made my sprouting interest worse, basically fuel to the fire, so now I am obsessed with them... like what a fucking way to get into a ship

(I think you know what I mean by "disturbing")

Hi everyone, I'm Cress Lee | 18 | she/her.

I love Greek Mythology, working with acrylic, reading, writing, organizing my bookshelves, cryptology, story telling, baking, Taylor Swift's music, Katty Perry's music, etc.

I enjoy the shows: STH, TOH, GF, The Big Bang Theory (it's a treasure, I love it), The Ghost & Molly Mcgee, etc.

My top favorite movies; " Cruella ", " Spirited ", " The Nutcracker & The Four Realms ", " The Greatest Showman ", and literally any Spiderman movie ever (except for " Venom ", the poster was scary enough, I didn’t need *cough*want*cough* to watch it *acts tough, but can't handle horror movies*).

I do not like: The Knuckles Series (It's... distasteful, to say the least), Radiosilence (It's the worst, I hate it with all my heart and soul. Nobody deserves radiosilence, it's torture), fanfictions that include incest (like people shipping Shadow with Maria and/or Sonic with Tails), little kids (I hate little kids, as well as kids who aren't little, they're just so annoying, I can’t stand it. I am so not parent material), the taste of caramel, lip-sticks (how do you people eat and drink with it on???), sunlight (and no, I'm not a vampire, I just don't like it, vitamin D is literally the only thing keeping me from an A+ blood test), and tumblr bots (they're the embodiment of evil) etc.

I'm not exactly new in tumblr but this account is about two years old.

I love STH in any and every way but my favorite is, and will always be, Sonadow.

Which is what this tumblr blog's mostly about.

I also have an Ao3 account with the same name.

Most of my works are about " Sonic the Hedgehog All Media Types ".

Short, but as frequent as possible chapters are my motto.

Seriously, I'm terrible at writing long chapters.

Anyway, here's a complete list of my works on Ao3;

✅: Complete,

☑️: Almost complete (less than 3 chapters left),

▶️:On going,

⏯️:On going with extremely slow updates,

⏸️:On hiatus,

❌:Extremely rare updates

🟧: Mature, 🟨:Teen, 🟩:General Audiences

My very first series called: " What It Means To Be A Family "

It had two complete parts so far, but then I decided to re-write the series, all over again, FOR THE THIRD TIME!!!

So here we are;

Part 1:(✅🟨) Becoming A Family Isn't Easy - Act 1 (Original Version) (Word count: Between 15K-20K)

Part 2:(✅🟨) Becoming A Family Isn't Easy - Act 2 (Original Version) (Word count: Between 15K-20K)

And also " Calming Down A Hurt Soul " (✅🟧) too. (Video Games & IDW Comics) It's basicly a Sonadow Hurt/Comfort fic that has recently taken a dark turn. (Word count: Above 20K)

And an even tinier vent fic called, "On The Verge" (✅🟨). (Word count: Between 2K-5K)

And, "Dark & Alone (but not for long)" (▶️🟧), a fic on Sonic Forces. My take on what happened during those six months.

And my latest vent fic, "The Emotional Beast" (✅🟨) on Sonic as a werehog. (Word count: Less than 2K)

And, "(Not)Unexpected of You" (⏯️🟨), It's gonna be a wild ride, so take cover guys!

I'd be delighted if you took a peek.

Well, that's all for now.

Thanks.

alright lets address the elephant in the room… what do you remember last before being teleported into the white void and establish each of your relationship statuses (single, searching, it’s complicated, dating, married, divorced, etc.)

Well! Here’s your answer! When things are addressed to “all” I’m mostly just going to have my faves answer ;D

Now that it’s late at night… time for me to sleep!

Previous | Names/Start | Next

[asksonicverse]

[ ASKS OPEN! ]

Prism (Prime!Sonic) is way too used to this alternate universe stuff. He’s getting them organized fast!

And don’t forget Paradox (Prime!Shadow), never says he’s willing to help but does so anyways. Will be getting to asks soon after introductions are over ;D

Part 1 | Start | Part 3

[asksonicverse]

Hi Sonics and Shadows! Other than King Arthur and Lancelot, what should we call each of you guys to make things easier?

[ ASKS ALWAYS OPEN! ]

Some others may join the party later on! Time to get into the actual asks and finding out just what’s going on here?!

I wonder how all these Sonics and Shadows came together… hmmm!

Thanks for all the support so far!!

Part 2 | Start | Part 4

[asksonicverse]

[ ASKS NOW OPEN! ]

Stay tuned to see how all of them interact! Also, most versions of the different Sonic’s and Shadows are all there! I just couldn’t fit them all into one frame…

Characters with mostly unique stories are likely different versions/timelines. So while some Sonic’s/Shadows may have experienced each others events, they still can be different.

This is the start! | names | next part

[asksonicverse]

How do prism and paradox our dear primes each feel about seeing so many alternates of the other?

[ Asks are open sesame! ]

Out of all of the different Shadows, it’s more likely you’ll get a response out of Paradox than the others.

Well, Mania probably would too but only if you insult him enough.

One way you can tell Paradox and Prism from everyone else? Their ears and quills emote much more than everyone else!
