Couldn’t help myself from coloring the sketch ^^ Also gave them a slightly different look, you know, because it’s me and I tend to do that xD BTW: Amy’s looks are based on her appearance in my AU. (Young Adults AU)
Idea based on this headcanon from @shadamyheadcanons. If you’re a Shadamy lover, go check them out! Their headcanons are awesome! (:
Happy new year!
Been inspired by the awesome story "Holding on to tomorrow" of
w0lp3rtinger. If you like Sonic related fanfiction with characters that have matured over time and is really well written: check it out
I'm really into Shadamy lately, more than Sonamy at the moment. I still ship both though. I feel like Shadow wants to protect Amy from herself sometimes- like when she's drunk.
Also tried a little something with the shading here.
Anyway; here's the story behind it:
“Hey there, sugar.” Amy was pulled out of her mind numbed state by Rouge’s voice, even though she had been sitting in a crowded, noisy Club Rouge for an hour or so. The voices had faded into a comforting cacophony in the background while she was wasting both her time and money on getting wasted. It was pathetic. She looked up to glance at Rouge with cheeks and eyes as red as her childhood dress once was, realizing the greeting wasn’t meant for her. And that made sense because… well.. it would be a little late. “How many drinks did you already pour her, Rouge?”
A gloved hand was put on the bar from behind her, accompanied by the familiar scent of a mixture of smoke, alcohol, a little sweat and a smell she couldn’t name- a pleasant, masculine one though. Shadow. His voice was firm and deep and… a little agitated. She was feeling a little agitated herself and wondered if things would get ugly tonight, sensing both their moods and well aware of their tempers.
“Just a few!”
Rouge smirked at her pal, trying to lighten the mood that had tensioned up with his entrance and lied about the number of drinks they’d already had.
“Care for a drink yourself?” She added and handed him a glass when he nodded once- scotch on the rocks.
“Hey! Hello to you too!”
Amy mingled in the conversation, somewhat on edge and sounding slightly more overconfident than she anticipated. She turned towards Shadow and eyed him while he audible took a sip of his drink. The tingling of the ice cubes in his fancy glass entering her hearing system louder than any other sound in the room. Her head ached a little from it. When he did not respond in any way she crossed her arms, turned her head away from him and held her half-empty glass out for a refill. “How rude,” she hissed at Shadow.
“Same?” Rouge asked Amy.
“Yes, please.”
“I think she’s had enough, Rouge.”
“Amy’s a big girl. She can handle herself, Shadow.” Rouge concentrated on the cocktail she was mixing and purposely didn’t make eye-contact with the dark hedgehog.
“Yes. Mind your own business. Especially when you’re not gonna talk to me.”
Amy aimed for the glass on the counter, missed and yelped after it shattered on the floor, leaving splashes of the berry-coloured drink on her dress. The Mobians partying behind them were silenced for a bit, but shouted aloud shortly after and continued their conversations. Rouge grunted a little, flying up from behind the counter to clean up the mess. “I’m sorry,” Amy softly mumbled in shame and rolled her eyes, annoyed by everything and everyone but mostly herself. She eyed Shadow who appeared somewhat smug about her blunder. He put down his drink with sudden determination and said:
“Fine. I’ll talk to you then: Hello Amy. I think you’ve had more than enough drinks and as a matter of fact; I’m going to take you home.”
“What?! Hey!”
Before she knew what was happening, she was lifted off her seat as Shadow nonchalantly pulled her over his shoulder and footed away.
“SHADOW! I DON’T WANNA LEAVE! PUT ME DOWN!”
“Not a chance, Rose.”
“Shadow! Get back here! Your shift isn’t over yet!”
“I’m sure you’ll handle things here, Rouge!”
Her protest screams gradually faded into softer resistance as she gave in and finally screamed: “Wait! My phone’s still here!”

Shadamy first kiss redo
Rewrite: Sonic YAAU - ch 3
I’m currently re-structuring my story about the Sonic gang in their young adulthood. When I came across this chapter, I HAD to rewrite it. I felt like in the original chapter, Shadow and Amy were out of character. I’d love to get some feedback.
YAAU: Young Adults AU
I hope you enjoy (:
____________________________________________
“Come on. I’ll take you home.” “Huh?” “You’re exhausted. You should get some rest.” Amy Rose nodded at him, agreeing. Even though she still was unable to reflect on the entire situation, let alone reflect on how she was feeling right now. Shadow knelt next to her on the grass and lifted her up in his arms. Her body felt a little heavy and numb and she only watched him to let this situation happen the way that it did. “Work with me, okay?” he said while he was trying to lift her. The muscles in his arms tightened. “What?” He sighed when he looked at her face and concluded she had no clue at all what he was talking about. His sense of responsibility came up when Amy subsided in the grass and it sharpened his senses. “Never mind. Pull your arms around me and hold on tight.” “Okaaay.” He dashed off into the distance with a high speed that she was used to because Sonic ran with her in his arms this fast many times before, but this… This was different. This time, there was no threat from an enemy to fight against like the many, many times in the past with Sonic. Shadow’s movement was fairly smooth as he dashed through the endlessly seeming dark night sky and the cold night breeze cooled her heated body. It was like she was dreaming. Everything felt so serene: the starry skies, the quiet calm of the night, the speed they were traveling at. She found herself oddly drawn to him. His smell, the lines that formed his silhouette and that attitude of him that made him so mysterious… Amy caught herself on the urge to break through the wall he built up and had felt like that for a long time. She just couldn’t stand it that anyone wouldn’t want to be friends with her, whoever it may be. She always tried to be friendly to others and not only sometimes Amy pushed too far in attempt to get close to them. Whilst pondering she played a little with his chest fur. I can feel his heartbeat.. Slowly she shifted her gaze to look at him. The warmth of his breath while exhaling created small damp clouds against the cold of the night that vanished as quickly as they had appeared. “Your heart rate is fast.” “Needless to say under the circumstances.” He calmly stated, eyes uninterruptedly focussed on the path before him. But while he seemed calm on the outside, his heartbeat sped up. “It’s increasing.” She whispered. He rolled his eyes at her. “Because you’re making me feeling highly uncomfortable.” He hissed and placed her back on her own two feet, having arrived at her house. “And why do you think that is?” … “Because you ran a couple of miles with me in your arms?” Amy guessed when she grew impatient. “But I’m not out of breath, now am I?” Amy thought about it: his condition was so good, he’d barely ever run out of breath. Suddenly it hit her. “Might it be… me?” She asked almost inaudible. He looked away from her and remained silent, cheeks reddening instantly and shoulders stiffening. “Shadow?” “You should get some rest, Amy.” Shadow let the chilly breeze cool down his flustered muzzle and scratched his squills in discomfort. Amy grasped his hands and thereby forced him to look at her. “I want you to stay.”
Suddenly they both felt stone cold sober again. “I can’t.” “Why?” “Just because.” “That’s not good enough, Shadow. Give me a proper reason.” “Amy, you’re drunk and I feel like I’ve drank too much as well. I can’t… you know? It’s not right.” “You’re the one who kissed me in the first place!” The agitation in her voice rose. “Yeah, I’m sorry about that.” “You’re sorry?!” – she questioned in dismay, volume of her voice running up. “Listen, Shadow, I don’t want to force you to come with me if that’s not what you want, but I don’t believe you don’t want to. We don’t have to… I mean… I’m not asking you to… sleep with me.” “Of course you’re not!” He blunted at her. Neither of them spoke. Time seemed frozen and her head spun a little. It was like she had a fever, flushing from hot to cold and back again. She then realized what it was and gagged. “Blast!” Amy rushed inside to make it in time for the bathroom and was followed by Shadows footsteps. How inconvenient to follow me at this time. But there wasn’t enough time for her to shout to leave her alone. The door stayed closed though until the sound the doorknob disturbed the one of the flushing toilet and running water she rinsed her face with. “You all right?” He put a hand on her back and softly rubbed it. Looking up to him, her face was dripping, her eyes prickly and red. He grabbed a towel for her, but found his attempts to dry her face for her were interrupted. “Give me that.” She took it from him, took a seat on the edge of the bathtub and sighed when she observed herself in the mirror. She felt horrible and now also looked it. “Sorry. That wasn’t necessary. I just wished that you didn’t have to see me like this.” “I don’t mind.”
For a minute she wanted to protest, insulted by the insinuation that he didn’t mind her feeling sick, but then swallowed it. Knowing him, this was probably a poor choice of words and maybe it meant that he wasn’t disturbed by this side of her. It didn’t drive him away. Amy freshened herself up a little and flushed her mouth with eucalyptus-flavoured mouthwash to rid herself of the bad taste of vomit. Shadow leaned against the tiled wall of her bathroom in silence, eyeing her in discretion.
“Shadow, why did you kiss me tonight?”
“We hit the glass too hard.” He raised one eyebrow and smirked at her.
“You’re avoiding my question. Try again, hedgehog.”
“I gues… You’re pleasant to be around. I seem to enjoy your company lately. I didn’t mean for it to happen.” “Honestly? I didn’t notice until tonight.” “I knew you didn’t. I’m sorry for kissing you out of the blue… but when you returned my gestures…” “It’s okay. I like spending time with you as well.”
“Okay you say.” He sounded somewhat disappointed. “Until tonight, I never really thought about you like this, but suddenly there was this tension…” “I already told you: we both drank too much.” “Not that!” In a gust she closed in on him. Chaos, she smelled great! “Let me try something here.” She then slowly closed in on his face, her hot breath provoking just enough sensation to call it ticklish on his lips. She softly kissed them, pressing her body against him smoothly. He spontaneously forgot how to breathe for a second and let an ‘wow’ escape his lips, followed by a chuckle. “What?!”
“Nothing.” Shadow whispered in between a breath to place his hands behind her back to kiss her again- with more confidence this time. He now eagerly kissed her lips, leaving her longing for more of him. Playing with his chestfur again, Amy worked her lips down to his jawline and neck, her fingertips firmly alongside the quills on his back. She noticed his breathing became irregular and could feel his heartrate increase again. Just when she wondered if the tension would push them to take a next step, he opened his mouth: “Amy…” “Huh?” “Let’s go sleeping for now.” An almost inaudible ‘oh’ escaped her lips. “Let’s take things slow. I want to treat you with the respect you deserve. And that means that we have to stop right here, not in the last place because you look exhausted and I have to admit: even I’m beat.” “Even you?” “Even me.” She smiled at him. Feeling playful, she couldn’t stop herself from kissing him again, but he was quick to break away from it. “Stop that.” His smile vanished, expression replaced with the blank she was used to, even though on the inside he was smug that she couldn’t stop herself from kissing him. “You’re so disciplined!” “Stop teasing me. We need to get some rest.” “You’re secretly such a gentleman.” “Don’t tell anyone, though.” She giggled. “I’ll carry you upstairs.” He put her in bed, pulled the blankets over her to pet her forehead and turned around to leave the bedroom. He kept amazing her with the uncommon way he acted sometimes. It intrigued her. “I’ll sleep on the couch.” “Bu-“ “Amy, I’m in the military. I sleep in odd places all the time. I think I can handle your couch.” “At least know where the blankets are, you stubborn hedgehog.” She said while handing one to him. “Thanks. Sweet dreams.” “You too.”
I got married! Due to the corona virus it was totally different from what we had planned, but it was still a great day!
Anyway: Sonamy rocks!
Despite what a lot of people think, I don't see Shadow as an Edgelord or grumpy character. He might have been that once, but has been put out of character a lot of times after that. He's deep, a little mysterious, powerful, strong-willed, introvert, loyal and tough. When Sonic ultimately will die someday, Shadow will protect his planet, Maria's planet and those around him for as long as he can go on. And he enjoys that role because it was what he was created for. BTW: I wish you all a very healthy, free and happy 2021. I'm looking forward to Sonic's birthday! Thanks for your support, comments, watches and favs! It makes me so, so happy!
Sonamy (YAAU) - coming to terms [Chapter 15-A]
“You don’t have to let this get the best of you, you know?” The words cut the silence like a knife, breaking the vacuum of his daydreams, breaking in abruptly in the tormenting whirlwinds that were his mind lately.
“What are you talking about?” Sonic asked in an emotionless way. “Come on, hedgehog. You’re a mess ever since-“ “Don’t! Don’t say it,” Sonic snarled at the scientist. “So you do acknowledge it?” “I just have to forget about it.” Sonic turned his head around, just to shift his gaze to another point. He was sitting on a grassy slope, resting on his hands. The wide view over the green hills was amazing and the breeze that brought a gentle chill softly stroked the grasslands like a carpet. It was the most peaceful place Sonic knew and the most rest he could give his mind was here. Eggman kept standing behind him, staring into the open himself now too. It was one of the few times that the hedgehog and the scientist could share a serious moment without any rivalry. Even while he had not verbalized his thoughts, Sonic could feel he was denying himself and kind of hated that it took someone else to make him realize that. “Can you do that, though?” “I don’t know”
It had been six weeks and three, no- four, days ago when the team had split up in duo’s to investigate the widely stretched cave tunnels to learn more about their enemy in order to come up with a detailed battle plan against the A.R. Sonic remembered very well how many weeks and days had passed since then because it had awakened something in him that had taken him by surprise. During that particular investigation Shadow had teamed up with Espio, who had enjoyed each other’s quiet working style. Tails and Eggman teamed up, Knuckles with Rouge and Sonic with Amy. The blue and pink duo had been sneaking around in the tunnels, following some A.R. members but stumbled upon a dead end in one of the tunnels. Similar to the dead end in the Cabbureine warehouse, the A.R.-members disappeared, appearing to use Chaos energy to teleport somewhere. The difference here was that this teleportation act seemed to be working for them only and so Sonic and Amy were stuck in the tunnel when all of the sudden tens of armed A.R.-members showed up in front of them, blocking their way out. They engaged in battle with Sonic and Amy, trying to seize Sonic and teleport him with them, but Amy merged into battle and knocked some of them down. Sonic had known Amy’s strength for so long that there wasn’t a doubt in his mind that she would be able to handle it. That was, before he was introduced to the dark side of the A.R. in person. Sure, he’d seen the destruction they’d created in the cities and all, but their vicious ways of relentlessly hurting the ones in front of them like this… It was new to him and it shocked him to his very core. Amy was brutally shot in her leg and chained to a rock while being held at gunpoint. With her out of the way, they turned to Sonic, aiming a high-energy gun at him, pressuring him to leave her and surrender to them. If he’d resist, they’d finish her off – slowly. Whatever business they had with him, he still didn’t know.
They promised him they would torture her before his very eyes until death would befall her if he was playing games with them. And so, astonished by the sight of his crippled dear friend, screaming, bleeding heavily and crying until she passed out, he gave in. They handcuffed him with special equipment that was supposed to block any Chaos energy in his body, but when he was given a preview of their sickening promise, he snapped. Even without any Chaos emeralds near and the energy is his body being blocked, in a split-second the spines on his head and back curled up and darkened while sharp fingernails and teeth clasped into his enemy. With an uncontrolled, raging roar he smashed big rocks onto the heads of the A.R.-members, scratching their limbs until the blood was seeping out of it, colouring the place violently red. The screams were blocked from his ears while he was raging and attacking everyone one who was trying to destroy the one he loved. After killing all but one, he cornered the remaining enemy and ordered them to report this to their chef, as an example of what would happen if they pulled something like this again in the future. The remaining soldier was in awe of what he had witnessed, but smiled confidently at Sonic. Unnerving and uneasy it had made him feel, doubting whether this had been a set-up all along.
Sonic rushed over to break Amy’s chains, ripped a piece of her clothes to stop her leg from bleeding and let out a powerless whimper. The now unconscious woman in his arms was weak from the harm they had intentionally caused her and he was overcome by so much fear at once that it just hurt. His chest cramped and he started to feel this tingling sensation in his fingers. He was going to lose her because he wasn’t strong enough, hadn’t been fast enough. Before realizing it, he was crying like a baby, uncontrollably and loud. He clamped his body against hers roughly, burying her face in his chest, wetting everything with his sobbing. When the sparkly vision between his lashes focussed on the device on his wrist, he pulled back, wiped his tears away and closed his eyes. Tails’ device was able to transfer Chaos energy to heal her, something he’d never done before. Sonic held Amy’s hand, inhaled deeply and concentrated. A strong power and comforting warmth rushed through him. His surrounding slowly faded as he let the light of the Chaos take him wherever was needed, lifting them off the ground into and endless ocean of lights. The lights drew closer to them one by one, each and every one carrying a memory of him and Amy. Some of which he had forgotten they took place. Overtaken by this transcendent experience, his mind became peaceful again and his body relaxed. His heart overflowed with warmth and a confidence so strong: he loved her deeply. And with that confession the peace was gone again, and replaced by a fear that she had been able to feel what he felt, but she wasn’t awake yet. After that, Shadow had stormed in, alarmed by the many unknown markers that had showed up in the map where Sonic and Amy were. He had had taken her from him and took her home in his arms while Amy looked back at Sonic over her shoulder and he stared into the blooded cave, zoned out about all of it.
And now everything had changed. Ever since this whole fiasco he had felt it so strong and now it was undeniable: he had romantic feelings for someone! And not just someone, Amy for Chaos’ sake! Amy, who had been crazy about him for years when they were teens. Amy who has been dating Shadow for almost a year now. Amy, his friend. He never pictured his life without Amy, but it now dawned to him that there was this urge to have her with him in a whole other way and he did not know how to act around anyone at the moment. He had just forgotten how he would normally act and therefore avoided most of his friends. Shame fell on him that he was in love with his friend, the girlfriend of his other friend and he was ashamed of the massacre he made in the cave. It left him running in circles through the Green Hills in attempt to clear his mind, but his mind didn’t clear. The fog didn’t lift and so he stared into the wind on this cliff, talking to Eggman. “It might go away over time.” Sonic sighed. “Can you wait that long?” “What’s the alternative?” “I happened to find this document while we were exploring. I didn’t show it to Tails.” If he didn’t show it to Tails it was sure to be something suspicious. He handed Sonic an old, brown piece of paper that was folded twice and smelled like the dirt of the cave. Sonic unfolded and read it, slowly raising one of his brows in disbelief. “Do you really believe this crap? That the red emerald can take away my feelings for her? Why would it work like that?” “Not just take away, it would store them inside the gem, forever. You of all people shouldn’t be the one to whom I’d have to explain this to.” He already knew that the emerald did not only transfer energy, but also could connect with one’s feelings. He’d seen it happen, like when Eggman used the hatred of the Echidna tribe to destroy Station Square with Chaos. In fact, he had experienced it many times himself when he was transformed into his super- or dark form, but this was different and sounded like an old urban legend. A fairy tale. Or maybe, part of him didn’t want to say goodbye to these feelings. Maybe part of him was curious what would happen if Amy knew about his feelings. If it would change anything. If she still loved him. If she would choose him over Shadow. His cheeks and ears coloured slightly pink when picturing him holding her in his arms again, stroking her rosy quills and even kissing her. The second his hopes were rising, the guilt flushed it away like a stormy wave. He shook the thoughts off and rose up to face Eggman, who was holding out the emerald for him. Sonic gave him an annoyed look. “Don’t you want to get rid of these feelings? She is with Shadow now and hasn’t been in love with you for years. You’ve had your chance, hedgehog.” The words were harsh and stung a little, but they were true and he knew it. She would never be his. “And besides that: you’re a complete mess. We’re at war and you’re useless like this.” “Fine, but you can’t tell anyone about this!” Sonic hissed at Eggman and grabbed the emerald.
