SHADAMY ASK

While walking through the park, you noticed two figures in the distance that seemed terribly familiar to you. Squinting, you realized that it was Amy Rose and Shadow the Hedgehog. A rare pair, to put it mildly. You hesitated. Should you approach them? They probably wanted to be in peace and quiet. But they're still heroes. You may never have that opportunity again. You took a deep breath and walked towards them, feeling a mixture of excitement and trepidation. —Uh, excuse me?" You mumbled when you got close enough. "Amy?" Shadow? I don't want to bother you, but I'm a big fan of your work. Could you answer a few questions? Only if you have the time, of course.

“Aw, that’s really kind of you to say. We just did what anyone would do. But sure, we have a few minutes. Ask away! As long as it’s not about… y’know…” (She’d glance nervously in Shadow’s direction, hoping the questions aren’t too serious or revealing about past events or their relationship, if any.)

I have! Thanks for the recommendation though!

                           "Heh,... is not beauty... within all things?"

The shadow leans in.

 send 📺 + a question, and my muse’s shadow will answer it!

Yellow-hued eyes narrowed at the intruder.

'...really? Came out all of this way to ask me that? Like I'm some kind of eight ball? Here to divine what one teenager thinks about another teenager?'

Hardly seem worth the effort to talk to this one.

'Why care what I think about you? You'll get what you want out of me in due time, a greased palm, a kind word and you'll have a boyfriend. Con-grat-ulations. Someone to stay for a little bit. Help ya fit in. Make you feel normal, huh? Both of you are perfectly useless, pathetic and the sooner you two get together, the sooner both of you are going to be ditched. Out of my hair...'

Oh dear. I have sat and read this many times but couldn't quite come up with a proper reply, I still don't think I have one tbh.

Thank you so much, for thinking my fics are some of the best, I've read some masterpieces on here that I often think I'm not quite as good as I sometimes think I am, hehehe. I'm so happy that you like Shadow, you have no idea. Shadow is my favorite, only a couple of people in this world know how much Shadow means to me, so thank you.

Underappreciation is something we all deal with on here, but it's okay (at least for me, now) I'd have been a crying mess before tbh. I'm at a better place in life right now, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to post that one, it's such a raw story that will always resonate with a time in my life that I wouldn't want to forget.
