@syntaxeme ;-; that's the sad thing - no, not really
Basically it was sort of survival mode since he was a baby. The only potential source of joy in his life was probably his smol chronically ill brother Atomu (who, i think in the modern AU, does not survive to adulthood).
His life is kind of coloured only red. Hatred, anger, jealousy, bitterness.
I was reading up on essentially how he was raised in the more modern AU and it's even sadder cuz this is in the same AU where Atumu ends up adopted into a loving foster family (even though Atumu suffers his own fair share of unthinkably traumatic events) and Atamu is just sort of tortured and trained into an assassin and he hates everything about his life.
Like imagine 20-25 years of being physically tortured into compliance and not being broken. He NEVER had a break-in period. And for like 20+ years, he literally never stopped trying to escape from that life.

I'm so sad that the 2014 adaptation fumbled because there actually was so much good content that could've gone down in history :((( like the episode where we get BOTH erzav100 and cana fairy glitter gives me chills to this day but I can't recall ever getting that feeling in tartaros arc which SHOULD'VE BEEN THE MOST HYPE... the fights just devolved into still shots and aftermaths with no continuous choreography... Wendy dragon force... Lucy soloing the whole guild (summoning three spirits at once, her sacrifice, summoning the fucking celestial spirit king, unlocking her star dress, urano metria)...... the dragons coming back... But the animation was just not good (except for in gray vs silver? and maybe the later part of Lucy's fight...) and ughhhh i just :(

once again thinking about how shadow hates humans and thinks the world is a cruel and selfish place yet when if it comes to it he would sacrifice himself for the planet without a second thought and even though he feels very distant from everyone and everything and the world taught him to be so cold and uninterested in things that make someone a person he has these cute little details about him that you'll only notice if you're sharp-eyed.
like shadow is so easily amazed by nature and how beautiful it can be. even though he's artificial / a freak of nature he loves spending time away from busy cities and in nature instead. he cannot forgive people who manipulate and control others and would go in great lengths to make sure their victims get their freedom. he has trouble trying to be gentle even towards his friends because he doesn't understand feelings and has low empathy but he's so incredibly loyal and protective and it hurts him that he's awful at expressing his gratitude. he has a very pure heart and it's the reason villains like mephiles or black doom failed turning him into someone selfish. because you can't destroy the part of him that wants to do what's right ( and his determination to keep maria's wish alive. )
