    Summary

    One could even say that if Tom had a nickel for every time he’s shot a tranquilizer dart at a space hedgehog that snuck into his garage, Tom would have two nickels, which isn't a lot! But it's weird that it happened twice.

    Shadow might have survived being atomized by the Eclipse Cannon's explosion, but that doesn't mean he got off scot-free.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    [Tom grimaces in a way he can’t quite interpret, “And do you know where... babies come from?”

    “Obviously they come from eggs.” 
    Maddie and Tom share a look that he can’t interpret either, but if he had to attach a name to it, it would be terror.
    “Knuckles? Do you know where babies come from?” Maddie asks in a low, wavering voice as if afraid to learn the echidna’s answer. Knuckles hums, massaging his chin as he considers.
    “Puggles were a blessing and a reward from the goddess of war after a battle was won,” Knuckles explains very seriously,

    “I have no idea!” Tails announces cheerfully.
    “I don’t know what a baby is.” Shadow chimes in. ]

    Summary

    Tom picked up his plate and made his way to the living room, the sandwich in his mouth just long enough to take a bite before he let it drop back onto the plate.
    “Hey, Ozzy, you ready for some Holiday Wars?” he grinned, rounding the corner and…
    And Ozzy was sitting on the floor, nosing a limp, dark lump on the couch. A dark lump lying on his stomach with black quills, red highlights, and charred metal shoes. Shadow shifted, turning his head just enough to stare Tom in the face with a piercingly red eye.
    Tom was frozen. He couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t move. Couldn’t look away.
    Then Shadow shifted again, tucking his face down into the couch cushion.

    ----
    Or, Shadow shows up unannounced, and everybody has to deal with it. Heaven knows they can’t turn him over to GUN. So they’ll just have to make do.

    Summary

    Heart in his throat, Sonic stepped into the room and called tentatively, “Shadow? It’s me.”

    Shadow didn’t respond. He was moving slightly in his huddle and a small pool of green blood was forming around him. All that remained of the lights was shattered glass littering the floor, so Sonic couldn’t see how bad he was injured.

    He took a step forward. Shadow flinched. “Please don’t touch me. I have to get it off first.”

    or

    Shadow gets a check-up. It goes poorly.

    Summary

    In Sonic's little world of Green Hills, Montana he’d come to understand humans as basically good. Some of them were Eggman, but most of them were Toms and Maddies and Crazy Carls.

    And now there was GUN. Who’d committed an atrocity against Shadow beyond what Sonic thought possible. Instead of making amends for their past, they wanted its sole witness silenced.

    “The doctors let me sleep in a real bed, eat real food instead of getting nutrient injections, watch movies and go outside to look at the stars. Because Maria fought for me to have good things.”

    or

    Sonic finds Shadow in the ruined lab before Gerald does.
