Summary

An AU I've been making, this is some information for it regarding the characters.
This idea was in the works BEFORE Unreal, and both that and this came from two other ideas before this, both pertaining to the FD, and one pertaining to the dragon aspect. They were both LU fanfic ideas, but I haven't really done much with either of them.
Disclaimer; This is NOT Linked Universe, so if you're expecting things to be like that, you'll be disappointed. I hope you enjoy my little random AU.
Note: I'll add tags and shit when I can figure out how to make new ones. Things will probably added, removed, or switched up as I get it down properly. It's gonna be a big ol' work in progress.

Hoglet-Sitting by Miguels_Simp

Summary

Eggman huffs and moves closer, opening his hands to show a small black and red ball covered in quills. "I don't know what exactly happened, but my idiot robots were showing him around when an old prototype went off."
"He?" Sonic frowns again, taking a closer look at the ball. Only when he recognizes the pattern of red streaks in the quills does he look up at the man in horror. "Is that Shadow?!"

aka, Eggman accidentally turns Shadow into a hoglet who is rather attached to Sonic

How To Purr 101 by chaselovesshadow

Fandoms: Sonic the Hedgehog - All Media Types, Sonic Boom (Cartoon)
28 May 2025
Tags
Summary

Hedgehogs don't usually purr. It wasn't a frequent ritual for them to rumble deeply from their chest — only when they were extremely content, in love, or when a specific blue hedgehog forced it out of you.

In which Shadow finds out a strange trait about himself, and Sonic is being a little shit about it.

Summary

"Okay, if I were Shadow— who I apparently am— where would I put my gloves?" he muttered to himself as he pushed himself to his feet, swaying as his arms flung around stupidly. The room he was in was bare enough as it was, only furnished with a double bed, a tiny closet that sat in the corner, and a single nightstand with a lamp. Gee, Shadow, get a personality, he thought to himself.
"Shadow?" Rouge's voice came through, slightly muffled. "You okay, babe? Having another tantrum again?"
Sonic panicked. Quick, say something like Shadow! "Who is Shadow?"
...shit.
Or
Sonic and Shadow switch bodies, opening up a whole new perspective for them both. How will they resolve the issue?
