squaring Dark Beginnings with the Shadow Generations intro cutscene

Shadow, having a breakdown over Maria while in space: Stop it. I need to focus on my mission.

Shadow: My mission ... ugh, the entire reason I'm doing this was because of a nightmare I had. It felt "real" at the time, but ... how do I know there's really something waiting for me on the ARK? Let alone ... him ...

Commander Tower, over the radio: Excuse me, Shadow ...

Shadow, trying to sound gruff: What do you want.

Tower, back on earth, glaring at a nervously-grinning Rouge: So we've detected an unusual bio-signature on the ARK which might be the Black Arms, but might not be. Just to confirm, that's the reason Rouge had you, uh, steal that space shuttle and destroy millions in GUN assets, right?

Shadow:

Shadow: Yes, exactly.

Rouge, in the background: I really did think you meant Sonic was the one who could talk Shadow down, Abe!

Black Doom: No! You can't do this to us! We made you better! Don't you see? No one can equal you! My genes built you—created you! You cannot kill... your father!

*Beat*

Shadow: *CHAOS PUNCH*

I had a packaging redesign project in my advanced illustration class, and was told I could do video game covers. I felt like Shadow needed his own cover with out the blue duo at his sides. … honestly I just wanted an excuse to use Shadow for an assignment -w-

So what did Shadow Generations look like from Metal Overlord's perspective?

I'm pretty sure the only time this could have reasonably happened was immediately after Metal Madness was defeated, but before Team Sonic went super. So it was just like ... Metal Madness gets KO'd, Metal transforms again, and then all of a sudden Shadow is coming out of nowhere riding a manta-ray made out of eldritch alien goop. And Metal Overlord just decided to be normal about that and just went after him.

... hang on, I've gotten distracted wondering when this happened from Mephiles's perspective. Like at what point was it possible for Mephiles to have been 1. in the Dusty Desert temple, 2. inside the Scepter of Darkness? Was this in the Iblis timeline or something!?

Trying to write some ironic gag shit for once and putting on the Shadow Playlist as a background noise then I'm hit with the song of doom and sorrow.

I'm sorry everyone. What was meant to be a joke fic WILL now be angstier than intended. I can't listen to this without crying and if I suffer those fuckass furries will as well

Damn, this part of the game, I mean, this animation, is great. You can see he is really smiling because they made the muscles under his eyes move!

Just compare with the litte smile he gave when Big appeared. Like he is saying: Oh, Big, he cute. Look at the diference on the eyes and muzzle's form.
