New headcanon: The reason Shadow hacks computers by just hitting em real hard is because he remembers Gerald sometimes smacking machines on the ARK when they weren't working right and thought that's just how technology worked

That one Egg Memo complaining about Maria in a nutshell

Imagine Gerald coming back as a ghost just to slap his overgrown brat of a grandson after hearing him gripe about Maria. The Robotnik Bitch Slap is no joke, but the only ones who can withstand them are Robotniks, so lucky for Eggman, right?

#was originally going to make this a three-panel piece of stupid until I remembered the Batman slapping Robin meme XD #the way I drew Gerald is based on a comic I saw off Reddit that I really liked so I kinda imitated that here #It should be required by law to draw him with crow's feet #sonic the hedgehog #sonic #eggman #dr eggman #professor gerald robotnik #gerald robotnik #gerald #weirdofish

if it isnt too sensitive a topic, would you be willing to talk about your grandfather? were studdying his work in my collage course and id like to know more about what role he played in your life

Hrmm. Well... I suppose I can appreciate the interest and how you've come to me as the best source, instead of haughty old historians that have written some silly books you might've read, who may dare claim they know as much about my grandfather as I do or feel they have anything interesting or valuable to say!

Now that the thought of all of you on that course learning about him through such ridiculous means is getting me all riled up, I feel like I can't NOT say anything now.

I never met him, I was born a little too late for that. It wouldn't have been possible as he spent most of his final years stationed in a top secret research center in space and they weren't letting just anyone up there without a good reason. MY reason obviously should've been a good one and if they wouldn't have thought so, they'd be wrong!

If only I could've been the one on the ARK with the honor of learning directly from the man himself, instead of that other member of the family who took it for granted because as far as I know, she didn't even want to be a scientist, so she was around all that knowledge and opportunity and never even took advantage. Ugh.

Anyway. For as long as I can remember, he was a part of my life, through the words of others. Being the greatest scientist of his time and therefore the most important and notable member of the family at the time, naturally he was going to be the common subject!

Especially being that I was lucky enough to be born as the son of his son. That's something I was proud of from the moment I learned, as early as I became an actual sentient being with thought. Which was earlier than the development of your average child of inferior intelligence, by the way!

So of course, I was immediately fascinated. His long, impressive, successful career as a scientist, making many groundbreaking advancements in the world of science and always striving to accomplish more immediately became one of my greatest fixations.

My father's past and business was such a bore in comparison, even if it did end up becoming useful to me later as a source of income for me to get myself off the ground and pursue better, far more interesting and valuable things. Anyway, let's not get too off topic here.

Naturally, I wanted to learn more about my grandfather in any way I could, through reading about as many of his recorded ventures and accomplishments that were made available to the public and that I could access.

A lot of it was from the news and much older books than later published garbage out there today. I was very precise and careful with my sources, only getting them from those who got their information directly, observed his work themselves and the most important and valuable of all, the things that were published by himself!

This was only as much of what was revealed to the public about his work, mostly pre-the-ARK-type-stuff because they obviously weren't sharing any of the top secret operations going on up there to the outside world. I didn't get any more access to it than anyone else, though I certainly would've deserved it.

I also had a more personal look into him with a couple of photos, though not as many as I wish. Most were from being a parent to my father and uncle but the rare few outside those fascinated me most. He had also written letters to my father, though they were quite a bit older because contact was very rare.

They didn't tell me as much about what he was getting up to on the work side of things but I was interested in learning about the person he was too. I'd perk up whenever I did find him mentioning or at least alluding to things he was working on. Or the rarest but most valuable parts of him documenting a day or two of life!

It wasn't that long until I learned of his passing. I didn't know the details, nobody told me and now I understand that it's because they didn't really know themselves, obviously, but I just assumed it to be because of old age at the time. I was disappointed that it sealed the fact that it was absolutely impossible for me to ever meet him.

Anyway, then I got access to some of his lecture tapes! I'd try to put myself there and imagine that I was his student as I watched. It really did feel like learning directly from him, the closest I could get to the real thing. It was very informative in a few areas I was interested in and very inspiring. I still hold a lot of valuable knowledge from them today.

There was nobody else in this family I felt connected to the same way. He was my hero for being a man who was passionate and devoted to science and made a name for himself by leading an impressive successful life, making an impact and being praised for his brilliance worldwide. I wanted the same! To be recognized and hailed for my own intelligence and potential I already started to recognize in myself at a young age.

He helped me realize my passion and who I wanted to be, I knew I needed to be a brilliant scientist too! If he could do it and become so famous and renowned, so could I! Finally, people would focus on and talk about me in the way they really should, remember my name and hail me for my genius and skill as I deserve! He gave me the hope and the desire to work hard and achieve my goals.

And so I started setting my own goals and trying to create my own things. I wanted to be a great scientist just like him but of course I had to eventually stray from the trail of his footprints and take my own path, to prove my independent genius and potential. It allowed my intelligence, knowledge, and experience to continue to expand. And look where I am today, now I'm the greatest scientific genius of all time!

But decades later we would cross paths again when I recovered his diary. I was thrilled to get my hands on something so precious and valuable and finally learn from him on truly the deepest most personal level, where I'd learn about the research facility and a top secret project he was working on and decided to get some use out of it!

That didn't quite go as planned in the end and I ended up finding out things I wish I hadn't as he'd planned to destroy the world, including his own grandson... To find out after all those years that the very person you held such deep admiration and idolization for was almost the one who caused your destruction... I don't want to talk about this any more.

Well, there you go. Some information from someone much more knowledgeable and actually equipped to speak on the matter.

Been on a Shadow and Maria kick lately

Wrote a fanfic of Maria and Shadow living on the ARK, so most of these are inspired by that. For a good chunk of it, Shadow doesn’t have his inhibitor rings or air shoes, so he just has standard gloves and socks. Shadow learns to skate by sliding down the hall in his socks.

Maria has a radio that can pick up radio stations on Earth, cause Gerald is smart enough to build such a thing. Because something I don’t see people embrace enough is the 1950’s aesthetic. If the ARK incident took place 50 years ago from the early 2000s, it would put it in the 1950s. I was listening to 50s doo-wop and rock n roll while doodling. Plus, can you imagine Maria listening to “Earth Angel” while she’s daydreaming about life on Earth?

This is when Shadow is going to test his inhibitor rings, and Maria is asking the real questions. Saw a lot of drawings of Shadow wearing a hospital gown, and while I think it’s adorable…why would he need one when he doesn’t wear clothes to begin with?

Sonic Headcanons 9

Professor Gerald and Black Doom never gave Shadow "the talk", so Shadow doesn't know how babies are made. They likely both thought that he would never have a romantic relationship and he is most likely sterile.

Knuckles also doesn't know how babies are made, but at some point, when Rouge was on Angel Island on somewhat peaceful terms, he asked her out of curiosity. His muzzle went the same colour as his red fur from blushing when she answered his question, quite bluntly and in detail actually. Rouge found Knuckles’ reaction hilarious and adorable.

Because Shadow grew up alongside Maria, she used to invite him to sleep in her bed. When Shadow came to live on Earth and regained a few of his memories (he might not even have his memories when this occurred. Possibly an instinctual habit), he didn't realise that people don't just get into bed with each other, as that's what he did with Maria. It made sleepovers with friends very confusing for Shadow and awkward for everyone else.

(Spoilers for the murder of sonic the hedgehog) After the events of Amy's birthday on the Mirage Express, Amy and Shadow went to the Hot Honey concert together and Shadow actually kinda enjoyed it. Amy began introducing him to different bands and artists she likes and they both bond over them.

While most Mobian species are diurnal (Meaning they are awake during the day), all Mobians have Tapetum Lucidum in their eyes, which means they have reflective eyes that makes it easier for them to see in the dark. It’s probably not as noticeable as regular animals’ reflective eyes.

Shadow is probably a clean freak due to growing up around Maria and everything needing to be sanitary because of her disease and how weakened her immune system was. His home is stocked with multiple cleaning chemicals, detergents and equipment. It’s all lavender scented.

Both Knuckles and Shadow are touch starved. Surprisingly, Knuckles is a little more repressed than Shadow when it comes to hugs. This might be due to Knuckles growing up in isolation and Shadow having a close affectionate sibling bond with Maria. Shadow isn’t as uptight about hugs as you would necessarily think.

That’s the reason why Shadow is so relaxed about Amy hugging him in Sonic Adventure 2. It likely reminded him of Maria.

Amy is a practicing witch, specifically a kitchen witch. She uses Tarot cards, which is a type of Divination and can sense Sonic without actually seeing him with some kind of ESP. She loves baking (Which is why I thought a kitchen witch, made most sense) and probably makes delicious edible potions and spells, especially love potions.

(Adopted headcanon from BRaN, @be_random_now Hands & Feel comic on Twitter) Gloves are like underwear in most Mobian cultures worldwide and not wearing gloves in public is similar to the human is equivalent of being naked in public, though not quite the same. Showing your bare hands is a special and intimate privilege only for close friends, family and significant other halves.

(Sonic Adventure 2 spoilers) The reason Shadow fell to his 'death' in Sonic Adventure 2 is partly due to his inexperience using the Chaos Emeralds to go super, as well as running out of energy without his inhibitor rings to moderate how much energy he outputs.

(Sonic Adventure 2 spoilers) Sonic and Shadow fixed the moon in Sonic Adventure 2 when they chaos controlled the Ark back. It reset the moon back to before it was half destroyed by the Eclipse cannon. Basically, it's as if it was never destroyed in the first place.

Sonic has stacks and stacks of photo albums piled up at Tails' house. They document most of his adventures and time he spent hanging out with his friends. Sonic puts a little description and the date he took the photo next to the images, so he can reminisce when he visits Tails' home. Tails regularly prints out photos that Sonic took on his phone camera.

I'm planning on making a much more in depth post about Eggman and Gerald in the future because I have WAY more to say but I just wanna compile the instances of this certain funny fact about it that I absolutely love.

Even though Gerald was Eggman's idol and he was inspired by him and he had all these great things to say about him, he can't ever mention/praise him without praising himself/flexing that he's related to him in at least some way.

He calls Gerald the greatest scientific genius in the HISTORY of the world, and adds "that's my grandpa" like "not everyone gets to say that, how cool am I for that haha." Love how you can hear the pride in the tone of his voice too.

youtube

But he also calls himself the greatest scientific genius of the world as the opening for every journal entry and says he'll mark his own place in history as the ULTIMATE genius.

Because Gerald had his time with the title and status when he was alive but it's his time now.

He also literally says this word for word on the subject of Gerald again in Shadow 2005 btw, as a way to say he had his turn and now it's time for him to do whatever he wants with what he left behind as he pleases. Another selfish move.

Pointing at himself with the Egg Dealer's limb for emphasis lol

He also refers to Gerald as "one of the greatest scientific minds", the specification makes me think it's in a like “but don’t forget about meee, I am too~” kind of way lol

And with the proud "and my grandfather" again added on right after the fact, it's like he's like "AND he’s also the grandfather of the best person and greatest scientific genius in the fucking universe and that’s even cooler baby!!!" ahfjhkafhsfgh he’s so funny 🥰

And then in TailsTube, he couldn't mention Shadow being created by Gerald without bragging about being related to him again, as a way to praise himself for his genius by being related to him so it's like it runs in the family. Anything to give himself some of that praise.

youtube

(Also damn, the way he scoffs and says his grandfather's creation is the "SO CALLED ultimate life form" like that. 💀 Mans still thinks he can do better!)

It's literally just like Eggman with Sage. LITERALLY just like it. It's super funny how the way he talks about both further proves that he can't value/respect/praise anyone without making it about himself as the massive fucking egotist he is, it's 100% never genuine and selfless and I believe he's incapable of that.

That's why I headcanon that another part of why Eggman was inspired so much by Gerald is that being related to him also helped with his hope to accomplish his own dreams and always fed his ego to take pride in even back as a child. Because judging by the jealousy and selfish egotistical entitlement he says he's always had in the Egg Memos, nothing has changed.

Along with how it seems he only praises him from an academic perspective in genius and science instead, as his good deeds never factored in the reasons. I think a huge part of his admiration for Gerald was always about seeing himself in him for his genius and science and the pride he felt and it's why he felt so entitled to attention and power.

Eggman's narcissism, egotism, selfishness, and pride always factors into literally everything he does. He is the epitome of self-centered. I love how it shows in everything he does. Even with the closest he gets to admiring and valuing anyone like Sage or even Gerald in any way, it's for the pride he can have in being related to them in any way and the ways he can benefit.

This also goes back to how I said it's different when it comes to Maria because not only did he not create her like Sage, he also can't relate to her like he could with Gerald to any degree, so he couldn't take pride in her for the same way. And that's why he hates the attention she got- because he can't have a piece of that pie.

Also speaking of Eggman feeling entitled to attention, power, and anything else he wants, he uses his relation to Gerald to say that he's entitled to doing whatever he pleases with any of Gerald's creations as his grandson, including Shadow himself, which he uses as a way to demand him to obey him. This level of entitlement and selfishness isn't very respecting of his idol's memory, huh?

I bring this up in this post because along with the entitlement and selfishness, there's actually also some pride in there with the "it was MY grandfather who created you"

I'm gonna get into this part and more about how Eggman talks about Gerald much deeper in a bigger analysis post in the future though because I have WAY more to say.

But yeah god I just want you to know how much I love this asset of it for now, how he can't genuinely praise anyone selflessly and always has to use it to praise himself, even when it comes to Gerald and Sage.

But in Generations even when he has the power to travel through time and fuck with the past it's just like "fuck Gerald the only person as smart as me is myself" jhsdjkdjkghfdbskfj

Nobody will ever be as great as he is or matter as much to him as he does to himself! XD 💜💕

I'm going to need the Sonic 3 movie to start off with Professor Gerald either conversing with the voice of Black Doom or studying ruins and finds the inspiration for making Shadow.

Reasons why the Rouge Conspiracy is great:

Boring answer:

Because it adds an element of tragedy to Shadow's character, who would had been created with Sonic's twisted up memories with the sole purpose of revenge, ultimately erasing "all the evil that the professor had created" by saving the earth with Sonic and then sacrificing himself blah blah blah.

GOOD answer:

Because it would mean Gerald's definition of "the Ultimate Life Form" is "annoying neurodivergent little guy with bright colors", and he managed to get away with it TWICE.

Do you think that Gerald could have uploaded Maria’s consciousness into Shadow?

No. Since he only knew of her death after he was imprisoned and so didn't have access to her body. Battle does state that he gave Shadow a soul similar to Maria's in that he could refuse to fight. But that's not the same as uploading her actual consciousness into him.
