Running out of time before the timeline is fixed
Shadow must be very conflicted about his feelings for Gerald Robotnik.
On the one hand, Shadow Gens made it abundantly clear that Shadow cares for him deeply. I feel like a lot of iterations of this story focus on Shadow’s love for Maria, but this time we get to see that for Gerald as well, which is nice. Gerald gave Shadow life and compassion. Shadow also evidently respects his knowledge, intellect, and authority.
On the other hand, Gerald (in a grief-induced rage) manipulated Shadow’s mind to carry out his revenge plan, corrupting his autonomy and (technically unknowingly) denying Maria her wish. Gerald also created the Biolizard, a being Shadow regards the existence of as very, very cruel, and kept it around long enough to use it for his final plan as a last resort failsafe. Not to mention the Black Arms, as a concept.
I think this is part of why Shadow was so attached to them in Shadow Gens. It wasn’t just Gerald, the man the world came to know as a monster. It was Gerald, the keen and benevolent, if somewhat misguided, scientist. It was a chance for Shadow to relive and reassess Gerald in a light untainted by his future mistakes.
And that was probably very therapeutic for him.

bonus that makes me hurt. The last thing we see of gerald's diary is a picture of Shadow, Maria and Him together right next to his last entry before he died as a reminder of what he has lost. Maria is dead, and now he is using Shadow as what he didn't wanted him to be, he turned Shadow into a weapon and became just another person to stripe away his agency and value as a living being. They are nothing but a walking tragedy, and all that is left are faint remmants of what used to be Shadow's entire world.
