Trust me, I'm not Mettaton

Mike’s mystery rodeo– (part 2 out of 2) Part 1 > [ HERE ] And it's finished! part 2 is quite shorter than part 1 but I still hope it was fun! thanks for reading!

wanted to do something fun inspired on the friend inside me meme but with a Shadowguy and also like I tried to put there the shadow mantle sneaking into TV world, so this would kinda fit between chapter 1's ending and/or during chapter 2 when Tenna is plugged in again 😆

Mike's mystery rodeo-- (part 1 out of 2)

DELTARUNE TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(enable sound for this to make sense lol)

Soo... I started this just after i watched uty for the first time, and finnished it now..

its SUPER sketchy but i probably wouldn't be able to complete it if i wanted to make it look cleaner, at least its a cute lil thing that someone might still enjoy~ and good practise

I AM ACTUALLY GOING FERAL

FOREHEAD TOUCHES IN ANY WAY KILL ME

THIS WAS THE MOST TENDER THING NSMDNFNSMWFNZNAKDNXMCNSKFNSMDN

MARIA IS SO AT PEACE AND SHADOW IS JUST IN SHOCK AND IS MISERABLE AND DESPERATE TO SAVE THEM AND HAVE THEM IN HIS LIFE AGAIN UGHHHHH

MARIA'S GENTLE WHISPERING

AND THE WAY SHADOW JUST SHUT HIS EYES AND WAS TREMBLING

HE HAD TO LOSE THEM AGAIN

HE COULDN'T BEAR TO FACE THEM AND WATCH THEM FADE AGAIN HE JUST HAD TO LEAVE (if he'd hugged them that would've been the most painful cherry on top that I would've eagerly devoured)

AND HE. FREAKING. CRIED.

They pulled a thing kinda like in Sonic X where it showed clearly he was crying but it wouldn't show his face as he did, just a passing, silent reveal... 😭😭 And the way Rouge's expression softened into a somber realization as she registered what was going on... AUAUSUGDBFFMKSMDNFMDSMSN

I feel like he needed to hear these words so much, he needed to hear that he’s not a beacon of darkness and destruction, that he can find the light, he can spread light and he absolutely needed to hear Maria tell him she wants him to be happy. He needed to hear that without it being a trick of the mind, or a dream for once, he needed it to feel real and it did.

And those words from Gerald, I think he needed to hear that too, that someone who took part in carving his dark path, was sorry for it, that even though it was his fault, regardless of intentions, he was sorry that , this, was the path he put him on, I feel like shadow needed to hear that, that he was sorry for his fate, but proud of him for how he walked it, and proud of him for how he fights. Saying he believes in him ( calling him son , he and Maria are such cannon siblings it’s crazy), I feel like he needed to hear these things, and remember every word.

And in return he made a new promise to her, he’s gonna fight, as a shadow with light in his heart, with her wish, being his light.
