Summary
Sonic always enjoyed Lancelot's company. He'd turned out to be way different from what their first meeting would have him believe. Beneath the outward layers of a fierce loyal knight, there lay an extremely compassionate soul, and Sonic found himself frequently wanting to peel back every superficial act Lance put up and dig into what he kept hidden behind all his walls.
…Not unlike Shadow, Sonic figures. Of course, there were differences in how both acted, but the similarities were uncanny at times; besides their shared appearance, they both kept a lot close to their chest, and it took a deliberate and consistent effort to get the guy to trust you enough to see his unguarded self.
And if there's something Sonic likes, it's a challenge.
Or, five times Sonic thought Shadow and Lancelot were similar, and one time he was proven wrong.

Summary
It's true, Sonic never really liked the place.
And he has made his distaste well known to Amy in the past.
Which means, he has to come up with a good excuse if he wants to keep his surprise for her a secret.
"Well, yeah but, uh–" He surveys his surroundings, looking for anything that might give him an idea. "This is an exception!"
"Yeah? How so?" Amy sounds suspicious. If he doesn't find an excuse quick she'll surely–
His eyes land on Shadow sitting next to him, having returned to reading quietly.
Bingo.
Or, Sonic gets caught while buying Amy's birthday gift, and that somehow results in him getting into a relationship.

Summary
In only a day, everything that Metal had grown into over their shared time together would be gone, overridden and transformed into less of an, in retrospect failed, attempt at copying a living being, and more into simply another one of Eggamn’s mindless machines of destruction. Maybe he finally got tired of the doppelganger shtick after all these years.
And the next time they would see each other, their budding partnership would lie, crushed on the floor, along with Metal’s fragmented self; Sonic towering over him, shining golden over everything that they had once held close to their chests.
Or, the consequences of falling in love with your enemy.

Summary
He'd never told Langa about them.
It's not that Reki is ashamed of them, or even thinks Langa would be disgusted. Not really.

Reki honestly just wants to forget about them and move on.
Or, Langa discovers the aftermath of Reki's race with Adam.

Summary
That day, Akira lost everything: his friends, the boy he loved, his own life. But then, he wakes up in Ryuji’s arms, back to months before the end. At first, he believes he was sent back in time, but soon realizes things are even more complicated than they seem.
Little by little, Akira learns more about the “Akira” from that world—who was quite different from himself—while also trying to restore the bonds with his friends and find a way to prevent their deaths in the near future.

Who We Are Under These Stars by theluckygroundhog

Summary
Sonic is restless and Shadow has nightmares. Often, they find each other in the night and spar instead of sleeping. When not sparring in a way that looks similar to a murder attempt, they may be found being soft, opening up, and (literally) sleeping together.
Shadow is trying to learn how to heal. In attempt to give everyone a chance to be happy, he has to extend that to himself, and doing so means letting the people he cares about grow closer to him (even if it hurts).

Summary
Lancelot’s devotion to his king was undying and obvious in every kneeled greeting. Yet the affection hidden in every kiss to his king’s gauntlet was improper for a knight to feel towards his king.
Sonic did not want to be king. He has grown close to Lancelot, whose formality remains rigid while Sonic wishes they could simply disregard titles. Sonic will do what he must for Lancelot to see himself as Sonic’s equal, even if that means he must kneel for their eyes to meet.
OR Lancelot thinks his affection is improper. Sonic is just an enamored, but does not want to act on his feelings until Lancelot sees them as equals. It becomes a habit for Sonic to help remove Lancelot's armor at night

Summary
Sonic would probably be doing worse though, he rationalises. He’s still never been able to get over his fear of water, and would’ve just hurt himself in attempting to escape. Plus, with how tight a fit Tails is, Sonic would’ve found it near impossible to move around.
Really, he made the right choice, he decides as the water climbs to his shoulders.When Tails' decision to save Sonic from Eggman's latest trap ends with him in a race against time, help arrives in a form even Tails' genius couldn't have expected.

Summary
"Sonic doesn’t know why he did it…
It just sort of happened.
He couldn’t help it, the warm feeling in his chest and the fast beating of his heart was almost overwhelming, though a given at this point whenever he was around his rival. And he hadn’t truly noticed he was doing it until deep into the late afternoon.
It was only when Sonic’s feet stopped moving, that he finally realized he had been circling the other."
or basically: "Male hedgehogs circle other hedgehogs repeatedly as part of their courtship behavior." except Shadow is an alien and doesn't know any of this so he is as dense as a rock to it all.
