Please, Leave Me Be (Just Not With My Thoughts) by onglizzybro

Summary
When Sonic awoke, he could already tell that he won't get out of bed willingly. The fog that clouded over his mind, the phantom pain of cyber corruption, the constant pressure behind his eyes; it was too much.
Too much.
Or: Post sonic frontiers: Sonic experiences the consequences of his actions, and his family helps.

Summary
This is a story which is supposed to integrate with the rest of the IDW comic's Metal-Virus story arc, but instead focuses on what could have happened if Sonic didn't regain his memories immediately. (It's mostly Tails saving the day whilst also reconnecting with his brother 🧡)

Summary
Sometimes, Shadow hates the fact that he exists. This is one of those times. All he wants to do is lie face-down in the sand and either cry or sleep. Probably, sleep is better to do, especially with the boys in his presence. They’re counting on him; he knows it, so he can’t be weak. He has to watch out for them both. The only issue is that both are clearly not nocturnal, and neither of them has successfully rewired their circadian rhythms to justify this existence. Which is bad if they’re going to remain undetected by humans.

Well, you read the title

Summary
Dark Sonic is tired. He makes a decision. Hyper Shadow must reconcile with that, but the only way is to let himself feel everything he’s let the chaos emeralds take from him.

Summary
Sonic fought to bring Shadow back from the flawless, distant being he had become. But the harder he tried, the more Sonic lost himself to cruelty and bitterness. In the end, they found peace—not by returning to who they once were, but by accepting their imperfect, broken pieces as something perfect in their own way.

Summary
There are times when Sonic feels empty. There are times when he cannot speak. There are times when everything feels as if it takes too much energy, and when he doubts what the point of doing it. Even more than running, he finds himself napping a lot to escape 'now' and get closer to a 'better tomorrow.'
He's handling it. He's not doing much else.

Summary
Gerald shows Maria and Shadow what it looks like when Sonic is deactivated in order to teach them what to do in this situation. This encounter plants the seed in their heads about Sonic not being 'alive,' and this point comes up again when Shadow confronts Sonic about letting himself get fatally hurt merely because Sonic doesn't consider himself to be alive, either.
It is only years later when Sonic believes he's alive, but then again, it isn't like he knows the truth about what happened in the ARK.

Summary
Shadow produces an excess amount of chaos energy. Sonic absorbs that energy. This keeps them both stable. They fit together like that.

Summary
“There is an odd synchronicity in the way parallel lives veer to touch one another, change direction, and then come close again and again until they connect and hold for whatever it was that fate intended to happen.”
― Ann RuleShadow wakes up in an unfamiliar place with only his name and a few vague impressions of his past. His only clue toward discovering his past is a figure that constantly appears in his dreams, drawing him ever closer.
Elsewhere, Sonic is dealing with the aftermath of losing Shadow and almost losing Tom. Tired of Shadow haunting his dreams, Sonic endeavors to become stronger.
What neither of them know is that their transformation in the depths of space connected their souls through chaos energy. This connection will change both of their lives, and inevitably, they will be drawn back together.
But a connection can only bring them so far. They'll need to figure out their feelings and memories on their own... or with each other.

Summary

Sonic vows to force his reluctant friend into doing things for his own enjoyment, starting with an introduction to the finest foods Green Hills has to offer. He has the best intentions, but doesn't quite know when to slow down and stop.
It's implied that these two are starting to develop feelings for each other, but they're a long way off realising it ;p

Post-Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (pre-Sonic the Hedgehog 4)
Trigger Warnings: Violence, child soldiers, unethical experimentation on children/aliens, hallucinationsThis version of Sonic has a past similar to the gameverse's Shadow. If you want more about this past, you can read Liberation, but I'm going to try writing this to make sense even if you've never read Liberation before. Also, Shadow takes Sonic's place and Maria takes Tails' place
Also, full disclosure, I might end up writing Sonadow. I tend to accidentally write it if the story goes on for long enough lmaoSeries

Summary
Sonic has been the face of the rebellion he's been fighting in since he was a child. This has a rather negative impact on his mental state, but no one seems to understand. At least, not until Sonic finds a chance to be something more than the smiling face leading children to their deaths in a war prisoner taken from the empire, Tails.

i ripped the flowers from my lungs and the love from my heart by EmmaSmoke

Summary
Sonic awakens after undergoing surgery for Hanahaki. This removal included the plant itself, but also the memories and emotions involved with all the unrequited love (both romantic and platonic) that fed it. This means that Sonic leaves the hospital without knowing who the person he loved or some of his closest friends are.
Without the emotional investment, he doesn't really care. Everyone else in his life, however, are very worried.

Summary
How did we get to this point!?
Here Barry was, on a date, with SONIC THE HEDGEHOG!?
How did this even happen!?
What has their life come too!?
Bonking their head on the table, they could feel their anxiety picking up.
"Heh, you alright?"
Jerking in surprise, they lifted their head up to see their date in all his glory. His quills groomed to perfection, and sparking in the light. His eyes were a beautiful emerald that didn't seem to have an end and held so many secrets.
And his body, it may not look like it, but there was muscle. A Lot of it. He had a sleeper build, and Barry was lucky enough to feel it.
And his voice? A deep, rich voice that can soothe away all of your worries.
Barry's brain hitched to a stop, once he realized he was staring and his date was smirking with that stupid glint in his eyes again.
Gaia above, I'm so screwed…
