    Summary

    “What is wrong with your dog?!” Lance shouts, his furious blue eyes narrowed as soapsuds slide down his face. Keith tries his hardest to keep his gaze stuck on Lance’s face, to prevent it from slipping down the glistening, bare skin of his chest that melts into his abs.

    “He’s a wolf, not a dog,” he replies. Beside him, Kosmo howls as though he’s agreeing with Keith. Lance shoots a glare at Kosmo and he shuts up promptly. Then his glare turns on Keith and he regrets ever opening his mouth.

    “Your cosmic pet drops you into the middle of my shower and that’s what you’re arguing about? The semantics of his species?” he snaps, throwing up an arm in frustration and sending suds flying. One lands on Keith’s hair. “Get out!”

    He shrugs, his gaze snagging on Lance’s broad shoulders. “It’s not anything I haven’t seen before.”

    “Keith, get out!” he shrieks, grabbing a bottle of shampoo and hurling it at him. Keith manages to duck in time before it slams against the wall where he was standing seconds before.

    Five times Kosmo spontaneously teleports Keith to Lance’s side, and the one time Lance returns the favor.

    Summary

    “The food on the ARK is okay, but I really miss the cooking on Earth. Before I got sick, I went with my family to Spagonia. The food there was amazing! Have you found a favourite food? All I’ve ever seen you have is coffee.”
    - Maria Robotnik to Shadow, Sonic X Shadow Generations

    During quieter times, Shadow makes plans to visit Spagonia, wishing to experience the cooking Maria swore by when he met her in White Space in an attempt to get to know her life on Earth better. (Un-)Fortunately, Sonic has the time show him around the place, which turns out to be a bigger help than Shadow would've ever thought. Now if only that didn't also make it harder for the hybrid to keep up his prickly walls that he's set up ever since that one fateful encounter with Sonic on the lily field...

    Perhaps Sonic has been right all along and he should be more honest with himself.

    As Shadow struggles, he quickly discovers that Sonic is hiding some secrets of his own.

    Summary

    Shadow the Hedgehog has decidedly left the past behind, but his guilt still haunts him and intrudes on his life. This is how he comes to realize that living in itself, is much more than just survival and following old promises.
    Life has much more to throw at him that weird monsters and life threatening scenarios- there's also a pesky blue annoyance.

    Summary

    There’s a hand on his shoulder, barely making contact. A red gauntlet glows around the wrist.

    Sonic blinks, the pain having evaporated so fast he feels almost weightless. “Shadow?”

    Shadow’s breathing heavily. “Problem.”

    The retrieval of the ancient tech Shadow (and Sonic, in tow) has been sent to uncover takes a turn for the worst. In this case, the “worst” means… becoming physically and inextricably linked to each other. For the foreseeable future.

    OR: Metaphysical handcuffs, and general gay buffoonery.

    Summary

    Sonic has been alone dealing with the aftermath of Starfall Islands for a few weeks. He isn’t doing too good, but he refuses to reach out to anyone about the problems he won’t even address himself.

    Sonic gets an opportunity to further distance himself from these problems when GUN requests his help with a mission. Although it takes some convincing from the commander himself, Sonic joins…

    … as the Phantom Rider. No one other than the commander knows who’s underneath the helmet. Not even Team Dark— who Sonic is assigned to work with on this case— knows.

    As they solve the mission together, can Team Dark figure out who they’re working with? Can Sonic keep his identity hidden?

    Can Sonic finally face his problems head on?

    Summary

    “Crystalline…” Sonic murmured, running a hand down the front of his torso without thinking. “Oh, uh… What was his name again? …Mephiles? He had creepy pink eyes. Like, a diseased kinda colour, right? And no mouth!”

    “…I was joking before, Sonic. How do you know who he was?” Shadow asked.

    “I mean, know is a strong word… I think I just met him a couple of times?”

    “How? From the way he talks, I’m quite certain that he does not even exist in our current time.”

    Or, Sonic remembers pieces of a timeline that never seems to have happened. It spooked Shadow, it spooks him, so they’re heading back to Soleanna, to the heart of it all.

    Summary

    “Well,” Sonic managed, between exhausted giggles. “That was fun.”

    “You astonish me,” Shadow breathed, and his ears were warm.

    “Nothing like a little race in a collapsing building to wake you up, eh?”

    Shadow sat up, glaring at him. Idiot, he thought, more fondly than it should have been. “And what would have happened if I wasn’t there, huh?”

    Sonic shrugged. “Doesn’t matter, does it?” His grin was toothy, and it was facing Shadow, and for a moment he felt a bit like he was drowning. “You were there.”

    Summary

    “Shadow, sweetheart, bring me the first-aid kit,” Rouge says, the underlying anger in her tone subsiding a little. “We've got a full-time moron to patch up.”

     

     

     

    This time Shadow doesn't stop himself from groaning and he does it particularly loudly, just so his disgruntlement reaches Sonic's ears. As if on cue, the hero limps into the living room and Shadow finally looks up from the yellowed pages. His eyes land on the bloodied mess of blue quills in front of him, who sheepishly smiles in his direction. It almost pulls at Shadow's heartstrings but then Sonic opens his mouth, making him snap out of inspecting his rival's wounds.

     

     

     

    “Hey, Shads,” he chirps, unphased by his injuries. “Missed me?”

    or: Shadow's distaste for the curse of immortal life isn't new, but the perspective Sonic presents him with is.

    Sonic’s never been one to dwell on past adventures, but he seems to take special precaution when skirting around what happened on the ARK. If it weren’t for his newfound friendship with Rouge that was built entirely on quips, Tails would think Sonic had pushed it entirely out of his mind.
    Then, Shadow comes back.

     

    Or- 5 times Sonic and Shadow's budding relationship went right over Tails' head, and once when he literally couldn't miss it.

    Everything was back to its rightful place.

    It had been a while since they spoke. Shadow was the one to break the silence about it first, not that Sonic minded the company.

    Contentment was the only thing their conversations could be called, if it were a feeling rather than a statement.
