This is a 10-pages pilot of a comic which I worked on with Lummh, called Sonic & The Olympus Heroes! It's inspired by Storybook series. Hope you enjoy it! Currently, Lummh is raising funds on his Patreon, so that we could continue working on it in quick pace - the ideal would be getting 2 or more pages done per month, and for that we need to raise 600 EUR by April. If you wish to support this project, here's a link to his Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Lummh If this target wouldn't be hit by a deadline, he’ll refund everyone who subscribed during this time. You can find more info about it on his twitter(Lumic_4) or deviantart(Lummh)

Since the Robornik family now lives in my head rent-free, here’s my another take on possible events.

Gerald doesn’t have the heart to say "no" to his beloved granddaughter. It’s thanks to Maria that he starts to see Shadow as a person, not just an experiment.

Would Sonny be rather tomboyish if she retains Sonic's personality. Would she be the type who decides she wants to wear a suit to get married rather than a dress.

You are correct that Sony would not wear a dress, but not exactly for the reasons you may be thinking.

Sony hates clothes. Period. lol

She finds clothes restricting and smothering; she only wears them because for whatever reason it's socially acceptable for males to run around without clothes but females can't. So because she has to wear clothes, she only wears things that are easy for her to run in. A dress is not aerodynamic at all, so that's the main reason she wouldn't wear one.

For her and Amias’ wedding, I can see Sony wearing some combination of slim linen trousers and a linen blouse or blazer (not both! That's too many layers for her!), or even a slimfit jumpsuit. Here are some ideas I quickly whipped up:

Blast to the past--

Someone else who can match his speed? AND he's got stripes?! You better believe he's following that guy around.

Drawing maria like Sailor Moon, the most girl that ever was. She would def say stuff like "major bumsville!!" in my HC

Keep scrolling for the AU story...

AU story:

In this AU it kinda takes some ideas from the Archie comics. The Robotnik family worked with the Acorn kingdom, but upon discovering a hidden echidna temple under the castle, Eggman becomes obsessed with it, enraged that the kingdom has hidden what could be, ultimate power. Against his grandfather's wishes, he and maria run experiments, only for them to fail, leading to Maria and Eggman's parents vanishing, along with several mobians. Eggman escapes, but Maria is struck with a strange chaos ilness that seems to be nullified through contact with Chaos energy... but the Chaos emeralds are off limits. Eggman is exiled, but he vows to return for the emeralds and take the castle with his genious creations. Despite Gerald and Maria being under strickt watch, Gerald Robotnik tries to create a living emerald in secret, underground, drawing up the god of chaos and creating Shadow... But he's found out as Eggman attacks for the first time. He escapes with Shadow and Maria in the chaos, passing off Shadow as an orphan from the city. Suspicions arise as Shadow begins showing strange powers... it isn't long before the war catches up to them, and Sonic meets the mysterious hedgehog again, years later.

partly to make up for that extremely sad post ahhahahahaha

Some Shadow and Jolt sketches I've been sitting on for the better part of two years now. Nothing spoiler-y as they were mostly drawn for my own amusement. A couple are for eventual story points but it's better than not posting anything for another long stretch of time and I figure you kind dedicated readers deserve something after so long.

This hiatus i tell ya * 。°_(:Ⅰ」∠)_

It was a nice break after a long sem. I highly encourage you to check out the other artist involved for this fic: @momotarotea (their twitter handle uses the same name) and read @n-odditty 's story if you wanna find out what happens next! (linked down below) Both have worked super hard during the duration of the project and deserve a lot of love <3 And of course check out all the other artists and writers involved too since everyone else also worked hard :)

dream

[creechurrblogs]

An Amy, by any other name, would have to be called, 'Rose.'

Okay. 

A while ago, I got this ask: 

And you know, that’s an interesting question…When did we all decide that Shadow would call Amy, ‘Rose’? Shadow most certainly has never done it in any canon before. Still, we, as a fandom, latched onto the idea and have made it a keystone in just about every shadamy concept we have. Even non-shadamy shippers occasionally have Shadow call Amy, ‘Rose.’

Why? 

Well, I replied to the question basically going, ‘No idea, but it’s a fun concept, right?’ and left it at that. 

@sweetlittlebrie however, took it to the next level. 

They ended up doing some digging on their own, and what they found was excellent! I then reached out, and we kept picking away at this together. It’s been a joy and a delight working on this with them. So, without further ado, here’s what Brie and I were able to find out about Shadow calling Amy ‘Rose,’ and the history of her being referred to as ‘Rose.’ 

2005: Crafted Chaos published ‘Red Roses are the Sweetist.’ This fic, published in August of ‘05, is the oldest fic we came across where ‘Rose’ is used. I specify the month because it came out almost 4 months before ShTH05. Out of all 5 chapters, Shadow only calls Amy ‘Rose,’ once. However, it’s right before he admits to her (and himself) that he loves her. It got pretty decent traction, but this is not, we believe, where the concept really took off. 

I must take a pause here. Despite what anyone’s personal preferences may be, we, as a society, owe porn a great deal. It presents freedom of expression and thought and living in a way that many other works won’t. It goes where others fear to tread. And so, I’d like to take this moment to thank porn and it’s many artists, writers, and cinematographers. 

We’re also pretty sure porn was the venue through which the concept of Shadow calling Amy, ‘Rose’ started to really enter the zeitgeist. 

2008: Shade by the Raven published ‘A Flower Wrapped in Darkness’. This is the first example we were able to find where Shadow calls Amy ‘Rose’ through the entire piece, and it was exceptionally popular! A lot of people tuned in to read and engage with this work, and from here, we do see a bloom (pun intended) of instances in which Shadow calls Amy ‘Rose’ or refers to her in a similar manner. (Heads up, if you want to read it, Amy tries to kill herself in the first chapter.) 

2012: xShadowxRocksx published ‘Without the Mask.’ This is the second most reviewed story for ShadAmy on Fanfic, and, crucially for our purposes, the most popular fic in which Shadow calls Amy ‘Rose’ throughout the work. It’s absolutely a term of endearment, as well as characteristically establishing the difference between the characters. Shadow calling Amy ‘Rose’ is nothing like Sonic calling her ‘Ames.’ They represent two different types of people and two different types of relationships. 

Aaaand here we also have porn. 

2012: Lolly Shane published ‘My Pink Roommate.’ This is a very highly reviewed and well-received fic. Once more, Shadow calls Amy ‘Rose’ through the entire piece. Crucially, it starts as a way to maintain distance, a formality, and then ultimately becomes a name of endearment. This will eventually become a linchpin in many fics where Shadow calls Amy ‘Rose!’ 

I’d like to take this minute to point out an interesting thing I noticed. ‘Without the Mask’ was published May 12th. ‘My Pink Roommate’ was published May 29th. These were literally being written at the same time. They also both were last updated in 2014. It is not out of the realm of possibility that these two writers were aware of each other's work, if not actively participating in the same circle of artists and collaborators. This is probably one of the clearest examples we have of the ripple effect creative ideas can produce when put out into the world for others to enjoy and share with each other. 

And that seems to be where it really took off! From there, the concept of Shadow calling Amy, ‘Rose,’ only grew in popularity. Now, it’s so engrained within the fabric of the shadamy shipping zeitgeist, it’s nigh impossible to imagine it ever having been absent. It is as ubiquitous to the ShadowxAmy ship as ‘Ames’ is to the SonicxAmy ship! 

That’s not all! There are also variations that have spun up across time that lean on the concept of Amy being referred to as, ‘Rose!’ 

Rose used to DESCRIBE Amy, rose girl/rose female/rose hedgehog Rose used as a METAPHORICAL DESCRIPTOR, ‘Amy, like a rose’ / ‘rose of a girl’ / ‘rose petal’ Rose used as JOKE, ‘ladies and roses first’ ‘a rose for a rose’  Rose used in OWNERSHIP, ‘My rose,’ or even ‘My Rose’  Rose used as a LAST NAME, ‘Miss. Rose’ / ‘Dr. Rose’  Rose used BY THE VILLIAN to be threatening, including in ShadAmy enemies-to-lovers fics.  Rose being the name decided by THE WRITER OR AMY (Amy changes her name to Rose for Reasons and anyone then will call Amy ‘Rose’ in this.) 

So this is a summary of everything we found! Hours spent chatting and combing through old works on A03 and FanFic.net have brought us, at last, to here. 

I want to take this moment to point out something else that is amazing. 

The two oldest fics for the ShadAmy ship that we were able to find are as follows:  

2001: Angelwind publishes ‘Shadow of a New Dawn.’ Here, Amy is home, alone, trying to process the events of SA2. She is haunted by the memory of Shadow. Then, out of the dark, he appears. Shadow has come to tell her thank you… and goodbye. Amy convinces him to live, talking him through the night until dawn. In the end, Amy, trying to get Shadow out of his dark thoughts and also get him used to the idea of living, offers to take him on her shopping errands. As they run towards the market, Shadow decides that, now that the Earth is safe, his next mission is to keep Amy Rose safe, and in his own way, he’s happy that he has a choice in making that decision. 

2003: Nara- Mia published ‘Cry.’ Amy finds a Shadow who has survived their fall and finds themselves adrift. They should be dead by now, and they aren’t. Where could they possibly go from here? Amy has no answers, but, as always, she has an immense amount of kindness and hope to share. The piece ends with her offering Shadow a place to stay, and the two setting off together. 

There’s… a lot that goes on when it comes to the representation of these two characters, both on the official side and the fandom side. Even now, as I write this, people are arguing over the characterization of both these beloved hedgehogs. I find though, in reading both of these, a certain delight. Many of the traits ShadAmy fans give to both Amy and Shadow are found here, in these two works. It’s been over a decade since their publications, but frankly, I cannot tell the difference between these and some of the current works being published on A03. 

Funny how some things just keep coming back around. 

As a departing thought, please note- this is just off of what we were able to find. Many people, for many different reasons, delete or have had their work expunged from databases. It is entirely possible there were other examples, maybe even older examples than 2005, where we would have found Shadow using ‘Rose,’ or even Amy just choosing to go by the name, ‘Rose.’ If there were, they are lost to time, and now, it is a truth held only between the writer and the quiet hum of the universe. 

To you out there who make art- you who write and draw and dance and sing and film and edit and make music with your heart on your sleeve- please know your work has value. It makes an impact, it matters, even if you never see how <3

He's baby

I refuse to accept he was fully formed. In the lore, Biolizard would have grown too fast and too powerful, thus failing, but Gerald used Doom's blood as a stabilizer for Shadow.

In my HC he grew to near adulthood rabidly, gradually slowing down after each stage. Still trying to figure out how I wanna draw maria... this was a while ago, though, so I will try again soon.

Kids do grow up fast though, I once saw a boy grow a foot in like 3 days. Wild stuff, tbh.
