@4themerald requested a starter for the displaced future.

He still didn't sleep in the spare bedroom. It didn't feel right, like Sonic didn't belong. ( Did he really belong? ) He could be found on the couch again, all curled up into a ball. Not at all laid out carefree like he used to be. Even if it's been a month, Sonic was still going through the motions. He's experienced loss before with his adoptive parents, but this? This was too extreme.

He heard footsteps, and Sonic uncurled, revealing his new short-quills and a smile that didn't quite reach the eyes. “ No beauty sleep for the Ultimate Lifeform? ” Sonic says, stretching his legs a little.

@4themerald [has some bad news for miles.]

"what do you mean G.U.N wants me to start regulating my inventions." something about the danger that his creations might pose. miles always built tech that he thought could defeat robotnik, that he and sonic could use. it bothered him to feel like shackles might be put on that, felt too restricting.

*offers shadow for shipping candidacy*

He's totally thinking about something else when that comes up. Trust. Something that has him relatively more calm than usual and playing with the rings threaded throughout his quills. Oh...you said something? He blinks. Then squints. Then snarls.

"...stop."

@4themerald asked:

Overlooking the arrangement of gadets the fox had made Shadow picked up one in particular. The fox exclaimed and telling him it was his boomerang he had created as ruby eyes overlook it. "It looks like a croissant." He remembered what those were. "I wonder if placing this on a plate the cop with the odd helemt light would try and eat it ."

he really should think about redesigning the boomerang, shadow wasn't the first one to think of it as a croissant and he was sure he wouldn't be the last.

"yeah, people keep telling me that," he voiced as he looked up to see that mischievous look on shadow's face. "you're talking about wade, right? i'm not entirely sure he's that dumb to fall for that." but he did once call sonic's owl guardian his father, or at least asked if he was his dad--that was weird. "but hey, you can surely try it."

why the red highlights? are they natural or were they dyed? does shadow even like guac? would shadow ever see him as a father figure? DOES HE LIKE LATTES???

@4themerald asked:

He hands Tails his gun. "Go. Commit a crime. Steal candy from a baby. Or a small business." He didn't care. He wanted to see the chaos unleash itself.

looking at the gun that shadow had given him, his mind was already whirling on how to magnify it's damage.

"you know, i have a much smaller gun that can do more damage than this thing." he was starting to take his backpack off before opening it up to show the other his most prized weapon. "it might not look like much to you, but this baby packs a punch." and the fact that it was lightweight? it was a win win in tails' eyes.

He was concentrated as Stone sat before him. The mans eyes were closed as he kept his hand steady doing his eyeliner. He had expressed a desire to match. So he was more than happy to comply as he placed down the red eyeliner. "There. It is done." (shads gotta do papa stone's makeup)

UNPROMPTED CUTENESS

"You sure I look alright?" Shadow wanted to match-- even offered to do his makeup. Stone couldn't resist. The former GUN agent had done his share of disguise work and knew the make up brush all too well-- but this was what his parenting guides had described as an opportune bonding moment. So-- he sat there, eyes closed as his surrogate son put the make up on.

He picked up the nearby hand mirror, taking a look at himself.

"Wow. You did amazing, Shadow." He found himself saying. Praise came so easily, just for him, though.

This was what being a family was all about. Little moments of kindness.
