Op you’re feeding me with these thank you sm.

And yes you’re right.

I always thought if modern!shadow was there at the time and saw how boom!sonic was being treated he’d be mad. And i feel like he’d be more disappointed to hear Boom!Amy say what she said to Boom!sonic because not only is she the most empathetic and responsible person between them all (and the village) she’s supposed to be mature and knows better than them.

It’d probably change the course(?) of the plot because someone like Modern!shadow is there.

@zumbieve I’ve got an idea for you!

So there was this episode in the Sonic Boom series where someone wanted to join Team Sonic, but he doesn’t have any skills important to fighting Eggman or his robots. To put it simply, he’d hurt himself and potentially others. Sonic ends up calling him “just a guy” when trying to explain that he might not be cut out for it just yet, and the entire village basically gets all worked up in an uproar over his choice of words and tone.

True, he could’ve worded it better, but the amount of anger displayed by both the villagers and Sonic’s friends drove him to retiring, both as a hero and as a friend (even though it only lasted like 30 minutes). It’s worth pointing out that Sonic made a good point when he did so.

“You know what I think is compassionate? Saving the village from Eggman! Like every week! But do I get any props for that? No! People just go around gasping at me when I call a guy “a guy” or people “people”!”

I know other people have made similar posts, but I wonder how Modern!Shadow would’ve reacted to the whole situation. I think he would’ve backed him up and try to knock some sense into the others for the way they acted. I can totally see him scolding them and the villagers.

And maybe in an attempt to help Boom!Sonic feel better, Modern!Shadow would let him know that he understands how he feels. Not in the “I can see you’re hurting and why is a valid reason” way, but in the “I’ve been there, I know what you’re going through” kind of way, because G.U.N.’s hunted Modern!Shadow in a few games despite him helping them, and he’s still helping them even though they pretty much ruined his life.

You can’t tell me Modern!Shadow can’t relate to what Boom!Sonic was going through in that episode. I don’t even think he got an actual apology!
