    Summary

    Shadow's life has been full of mistakes, some worse than others, but admitting his unrequited feelings to Sonic tops the list. He's spent the better part of a decade ruminating on his regret and hiding from feelings he couldn't bear to face. He never thought he'd see Sonic again, and he told himself that was for the best.

    Until now.

    At the bequest of his former rival, and in an attempt to finally get closure, Shadow has returned to Central City. The reason?

    Sonic the Hedgehog is marrying Amy Rose.

    And Shadow is invited.

    Summary

    Working with each other in Operation Cleanup, a plan to rebuild the city after a particularly gruesome Eggman attack, Sonic and Shadow grow closer. Feelings come to a head during a hangout at Shadow’s apartment.

    When Shadow gets called away for an inter-dimensional mission and Sonic has to care for his houseplants as well as communicate with him through Morse code, he realizes just how deep his feelings run. Who else would he go through all this trouble for?

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I cant express my delight with this work enough, but instead I will say I actually keep returning here every once in a while. The characterisation of both: Sonic AND Shadow is simply flawless. I could easily picture their interactions in my mind, the perfect choice of words made the story become vivid in front of my eyes. I like how Shadow was presented as softer in moments like those, when he wasn't on a mission or world-saving duty. Absolutely recommend!

    Summary

    Sonic has a plan: ask Amy to prom, nail their first kiss, live the dream. Easy. He just needs a little help with the whole kissing thing. Shadow agrees to ”practice”, and it’s just that—practice. It’s just a warm-up. No big deal. No stakes. Until there is.

    writing of this absolute masterpiece is very inspiring for me, I LOVED how the tension there was built up in the perfect pace and the writing style itself made me feel a lot of intense emotions. I will definitely visit this fic again, more than once

    Summary

    Two nights in 1993. Louis watches a documentary on the AIDS crisis. Lestat reflects upon his life with Nicolas in Paris, and the blight of damnation.


    “My point is...” he swallowed, and he got a strange, faraway look in his eyes. He took one of my hands and held it, brushing his thumb over the blue veins on the back of my hand. He sighed. “I understand. To some degree, though perhaps not perfectly, what it had been like for you as a mortal man. When you were living in Paris.

    “And I understand,” he whispered, looking pointedly into my eyes. “…some measure of what you lost.”

    The Ninth Hunter by

    Summary

    Sonic dreams of becoming the greatest hero Mobius has ever known. When a series of violent and confusing vampire attacks strike the land, he sees his chance to prove himself. Partnered with the enigmatic vampire hunter known as Nine, Sonic sets out to track the threat.

    But when his brother proposes an unexpected alliance- with Shadow, a vampire lord awakened from a fifty-year slumber- Sonic's views are suddenly challenged.
    ...Basically a very slow-burn vampire romance and also a story about Nine being a vampire hunter since I feel like he fits the role so well.
