After my 10th rewatch of Prime S2 EP1, I noticed some more details, which also led me to some theories. I have no idea if people have already caught these but they just seemed very interesting to me. I’m happy to hear what you guys think of them and if you want, reblog with your own little details and theories you’ve found!
1. Shadow’s Shatterspace
Since we’ve already seen the main Shatterspaces fit for Sonic’s friends (except Rouge, if she even gets one), Ghost Green Hill might correlate to Shadow. It’s prism and portal gate is yellow, matching Shadow’s trail color. He even describes the world as “not fully formed” and “decaying.” But what stood out to me the most was, “not whole” and “like a ghost.” We all know Shadow hasn’t had a clear origin story. Not even a coherent character arc, fitting the “not whole” type. As for “ghost,” Shadow has “died” twice but still continues to live. In Sonic Heroes, Knuckles calls Shadow a ghost, who is mistaken for a Shadow Android. Shadow in Prime is still technically a ghost since he wasn’t supposed to be there in the first place. He didn’t shatter the Paradox Prism and create the Shatterverse like Sonic, he wasn’t touched by the Prism’s shattering and split into multiple variants like Sonic’s friends, he can’t enter portals, but only the one to Ghost Green Hill. He has no purpose. However, that changed when Sonic “saw” him. The real him.
“If you’ll stop staring straight through me…” - Mother Mother, “Ghosting”
2. Sonic’s kicks and punching sticks
Sonic’s gloves and shoes in Ghost Green Hill are his original ones, however they are embedded with a grid-like pattern, like an un-textured 3D model.
3. “Real”
Sonic defends Nine and his Shatterverse friends as real, but compares them to his original friends. Shadow says otherwise, calling the variants not real, or in other words, fake (hey look reference). Sonic contradicts what he has said about the “fakes” when he calls Shadow, “the real you.”
This can also be compared to the real and fake chaos emeralds. The real ones emitting pure, genuine chaos power. While the fakes sometimes provide positive energy, things can go south pretty easily.
4. Slick Sonic
Some of you were probably wondering how Sonic got his tech back from Shadow after he saved him. Well after Sonic hit his head on a floating crystal, we see his hands closed before he asks Shadow to give them back. So he probably took them off of Shadow when he fell out of his arms.
5. Shred of Sympathy?
When Shadow sees Sonic at his lowest, he sighs, stares, and then asks him to follow him. Resulting them to walk and talk and for Sonic to not give in to his negative thoughts.
6. Portal Hopping
Shadow states that he can’t portal hop like Sonic and other variants, but Ghost Green Hill is an exception. He was able to create a portal out of GGH using his speed, just like Sonic. But what about the tech? Yes, they were attached to him when he left GGH after the big fight, but that wasn’t his first time being there. After Sonic’s shockwave, Shadow was lead to its portal. We can tell he entered it due to him saying, “this Gateway let me in.” This (maybe) concludes that Shadow shares some similar prism powers like Sonic. Yes, other variants can portal hop, but they can’t CREATE portals on their own.
7. Shadow’s jingle
When Shadow first chases Sonic in the beginning of the episode, he gets surprised with a huge Tails crystal hologram. When he flips over, a faint little jingle plays. This also happens when Shadow is pushed by Sonic’s shockwave at the timestamp 6:20. I thought it was very cute.
8. I’ll Follow You
When crystal hologram Amy says “but there’s only one hedgehog they’ll follow into battle,” Shadow is seen following Sonic from gateway to gateway, trying to communicate with him in every Shatterspace.

hi! someone considering starting their own clangen blog— how do you draw the same character over and over without the design changing drastically with every drawing?
hello!! honestly what helps me is having a reference of your characters!
every time i draw a new panel with my uglies, i just pull up the reference and go from there!
it also helps to have simple designs haha. unless you genuinely want complex designs, then I say go for it! but it is tedious to draw it over and over again

what's barry about/what's the premise? everyone says it's really good and i believe it but i know pretty much nothing about what it is
on the surface, barry is a dark (and i mean dark) comedy about a disillusioned hitman who travels to los angeles for a job and finds himself drawn into the community theater scene. the potential to leave his violent past behind is appealing, but doing so is easier said than done. the show’s got it all—comedy, tragedy, absurdism… astounding action set pieces, to ill-fated romances, to simply stunning cinematography. it’s like if david lynch and the coen brothers came together to examine humanity’s capacity for change.
but it’s also a show about:
• living with the consequences of your actions.
• the effects of trauma.
• self-delusion and what it means to live a lie.
• abuse and abusive cycles.
• grief’s capacity to hollow out and compress.
• toxic codependency.
• our desensitization to violence.
• the sensationalization of tragedy.
• and perhaps most importantly,
how violence inevitably corrupts everything that it touches. even the innocents. even children.
it’s wonderfully executed and a rare example of auteurist television—this is bill hader’s vision and oh, what a vision it is. i absolutely recommend it, feel free to drop back in with your thoughts if you do decide to give it a go!

i love you
i know we’ve been saying it a lot
but i never mean it any less.
our relationship is hard to explain and i know we both feel more comfortable with labels on things, but whatever we are right now is enough for us currently and i don’t think there’s a better way we could be handling each other than everything we’ve been doing.
time stopped when you left. when we stopped fighting. when we met eye contact for the last time.
but hearing your voice has made my world spin again.
the universe paused so we could catch up, and i’m forever grateful.
i can breathe now that we’re talking.
i love you, my sweets.
thank you for meeting me halfway <3
