More AU info under cut!

Sonic and Shadow both struggle with feeling like there is something so wrong with them that they are unloveable.

Even before the chaos emeralds turned him into a sea monster, Shadow felt like a dangerous freak and that he has always been a monster. He shouldn't deserve love or for anyone to care about him. Maria helped him with these feelings and showed him that he could be loved and accepted but after her death, he blamed himself and began to think the was wrong. All he will ever be is a destructive repulsive monster.

Sonic’s decade long isolation made him stop feeling like he was a real person. He was all alone on an alien planet where the closest thing to his species was an animal that is kept as a pet. He stayed hidden from people and lived in a cave in the woods like a feral animal. At times he felt like he was a wild feral thing and wasn’t actually a person who deserved to have connections with others. He even if he could talk and run and was just as smart as any human, maybe he wasn’t really a person. Maybe, after so many years of watching them, he was just really good at pretending to be like them. And too stupid to know he was pretending.

Even after meeting others from their home planet, they both still struggle with these feelings. Both of them grew up on Earth surrounded by humans and in extremely stressful environments. Feelings like that aren’t going to immediately go away.

The two of them begin to realize their feelings towards each other not long after Shadow arrives in Green Hills. When they turn into monsters and Sonic realizes that it’s going to be a long time before things go back to normal and they’re really stuck like this for god knows how long, he decides to take a chance. He confesses his feelings while they’re having a movie night together. Shadow is thrilled.

They help prove to each other that they are capable of being loved and being a person worthy of that love no matter what shape they’re in.

Stone, Tom, and Maddie are all just happy that Sonic and Shadow make each other happy.

Would be super funny if Shadow started living with Stone but both think that they adopted the other.

Shadow: this human is soft and weak, as most humans are. He put up with God only knows what from the Robotnik, he has no backbone. He still draws the younger one in his drinks in the morning. He has made enemies of the other Mobians on this planet. I must protect him, he'll die without me.

And Stone is like: this asocial dude hasn't interacted with humans for 50 years and the humans he interacted with before were not always great role models. He freaked out about a digital billboard the other day. I told him about the internet and he blue screened. He has no social skills and no life skills. If I don't take care of him, he's going to end up in some creeps basement.

Meanwhile, to the rest of Greenhills, these two socially awkward menaces found each other and at least they kind of keep each other in check. Stone is getting Shadow up to date on the world and Shadow is forcing Stone to be his own man. At least The Mean Bean makes good coffee.

One thing I haven’t really talked about with the SCU monsters AU is that the characters go to school! Because the chaos emeralds don’t want to be found (and want the characters to actually work on themselves) it takes a long long time to find them. And in the meantime, the characters have to keep trying to live their lives and navigating their new ones. The fact that they’re aliens isn’t really a problem at school since everyone knows about them, but turning into monsters causes all kinds of new problems.

Tails craves blood and being surrounded by people makes it hard to deal with. He is also nocturnal and hates bright lights, which the school is full of. He struggles with lunch most days. For a long time he refused to drink any blood and began having awful side effects from not having it. One side effect was hallucinations during cravings. During lunch period he began to see a lunch tray full of blood rather than the pizza that was actually on it

Knuckles quite literally is trying his best to keep himself together. His limbs fall off or are knocked off somewhat frequently despite Maddie’s best efforts to keep him in one piece. He can move his arms, legs, and tail when they fall off. He has even forgotten limbs at home and gone to school without them. He will accidentally move that limb throughout the day which leads to Tom or Maddie finding it and having to bring it to him at school

Shadow needs water. Even on days where he has no problem keeping his legs instead of his tail, he still has to drink water constantly. One day while walking down the hall, his tail decides to make an appearance. He ends up sprawled out on the ground and the inhibitor rings that were on his ankles go rolling down the hall. Without them teleporting hurts and has destructive effects on the area around him so he can’t just jump and go get them. He has to ask for help while he’s just stuck and completely humiliated.

Amy is terrified of messing up in both her classes and in her interactions with classmates. She doesn’t want them to think she’s annoying or too much. This is problem if you have vines growing out of you that want to latch on to every surface they can reach. The more she stresses about it and thinks about what they’re doing the more they grow and climb.

Silver fades in and out of existence in the middle of class. He will sometimes go invisible without realizing it which has led to him being marked absent multiple times while he was sitting right in front of the teacher. He sometimes has trouble staying solid/corporeal and has days where he can’t even pick up a pencil and he just phases through objects around him.

Sonic has been going to school since he moved in with Tom and Maddie and has friends there that he’s know for a while now. After turning into a werewolf, he is pretty nervous to go back to school and for everyone see him. He’s already been the odd one out since he started there and really is just hoping that adding “werewolf” to the list of things that make him different isn’t enough to make everyone hate him. Thankfully, as soon as he shows up for his first period math class, one of his friends excitedly greets him and thinks it’s the coolest thing he’s ever seen.

Even if his human friends are still his friends, Sonic still struggles with some parts of school. Having an enhanced sense of smell and hearing is not ideal in a high school.

Breaking news: local fish gay for spiky wolf with yapping addiction I am back with more AU sonadow

(Like this AU? Vote here for it in the @sonic-au-collision-zone!)

AU yapping under cut:

Shadow thinks Sonic is the most beautiful thing he’s ever seen even when he’s half wolf and a shaggy fluffy mess. He loves Sonic and cares for him so much. Sonic is one of the only people he lets himself be vulnerable and soft around.

Sonic loved his boyfriend. He thinks he’s the coolest most badass hedgehog he has ever met. As much as he loves racing and sparring with him, some of Sonic’s favorite moments with Shadow are when the two of them just hang out and cuddle together.

Because they got together after they were turned into monsters, they had to sort out the ins and outs of a new relationship while also being stuck in bodies that didn’t exactly feel like them. Shadow in particular thought he should avoid physical contact with Sonic because he thought he would be repulsed. Shadow is half fish and Sonic is scared of the water so in why on Earth would he want to be anywhere close to him. Sonic on the other hand was very forward with what he was thinking and displayed his affection.

Can he communicate his feelings towards himself or anything about how he feels after turning into a werewolf? Nope! But he has zero problems telling his boyfriend how much he likes him or physically showing it through hugs, handholding, cuddling, or just leaning against him whenever he least expects it

Agent Stone would 300% be one of those parents that tries to be super pretentious about food/childcare. Homeboy was making lattes for his former boss with specifically Austrian goat milk and was taking the time to draw super specific art on lattes when running The Mean Bean. Meanwhile, Tom and Maddie have three kids and zero fucks to give at this point.

Stone: My alien kid only eats organic food, wears name brand shoes, and sleeps on a pillow stuffed with swan feathers.

Tom and Maddie: that's cool. Our kids eat candy off the floor, wear whatever fits them, and sleep in beds that look like vehicles.
