Note: a fairly large portion of this story takes place in the bathroom. While I'm not overtly explicit about anything, if you have a strong imagination, you have been warned.

There is also some swearing, GAME ENDING spoilers for Shadow the Hedgehog, and implied nudity.

This is about 15 hours early, but I can't be sure I'll wake up in time to post it, so I'm just gonna put it up early. Happy birfday!

A little something I wrote for *iammemyself. Comparing my life to the plight of the roboticist who never wins anything, thinking about her current project, The Right Reasons, thinking about the ending of Shadow the Hedgehog while I work on my big project based on it... this kinda came together. I got so emotional about it I showed her in advance, even though it was supposed to be a surprise, and she's ok with it, so that's all good by me.

Buutttt there's more...

Sonic, Eggman, Shadow, Gerald, Black Doom, and everyone else belong to Sega, and so does Eggman's constant failure. The words are mine, though.

Edit February 23rd: Holy crap. A daily deviation. I did not expect that at all! (Indiana, you are dead! :P) I am very flattered, and I want to thank everyone: Indiana for recommending this piece for a DD, JZLobo for selecting it, and each and every last one of you for reading. :)

:iconcongratsddplz: I really like the dreary, introspective mood of the piece. It's quite divorced from the typical bright colors and fast-paced action of Sonic, but in a compelling way. And I think those of us who developed other abilities in place of social skills can relate strongly to the line, "My wit, charm, intelligence, and creative skill, while superior in most ways to Shadow’s, cannot compete with the social value of having a heart. I wonder what denied me that. Was it my grandfather, my father? Or was it me?"
