#but shadow does it to sonic once and everyone goes wild about how gay they are. whats going on here

[sonknuxadow]

im so sorry for having opinions on sonic shipping and im not trying to like. pit the two pairings against eachother or start a ship war or whatever but based on whats actually there in the source material it really feels like sonic and knuckles were destined to be the big popular "default" gay pairing for sonic (the character) but then the timeline somehow got messed up and sonic and shadow were placed in that role instead

#maybe im just biased because i like sonknux more (to be clear i do like both i just have a preference) but like #sonic and knuckles interact more often than sonic and shadow. they have way more undeniably gay moments than sonic and shadow #sonic and shadow have a couple moments like that too but #90 percent of the time when people talk about how in love they are in certain scenes #its not actually that gay theyre just standing next to eachother and people just cant turn their shipping brains off #but with sonic and knuckles its like . knuckles blushes over sonic touching his shoulder #knuckles spends several nights in a row staring at the moon thinking about sonic and waiting for him to come home #whatever they had going on in sonic frontiers. Etc #i think part of the reason a lot of people ship sonic and shadow is because of the rivalry. but knuckles was sonics rival first????? #and the way some people talk about so/nadow makes me go ''well thats not shadow thats just knuckles in a shadow costume'' #''its sonknux you want. what are you doing'' #and ive even seen a bunch of people make the i love captains thing in sonic prime about son.adow? #while completely ignoring that that scene has nothing to do with shadow and was literally about knuckles??? idk its just weird to me #sonic carries knuckles multiple times and no one bats an eye #but shadow does it to sonic once and everyone goes wild about how gay they are. whats going on here #i dont think i actually wanna live in the timeline where sonknux is the most popular though. i like that people arent as annoying about it.
