Is That Blood Or Pizza Sauce?

Honestly, I'm in love with this idea/drabble. I guess I'll add to the hc train.

One of my hc is that he either gets attached to someone very easily or can't at all/struggles to get attached because of his fear of hive finding out.

I also feel like he tried to have a relationship in the past but idk just a drabble hc thingy

we should do a change.org vote to make friendly shadow gay

"Dear citizens of Autodale, we hear your concerns about the sudden disappearances of relatives or close friends. If you have any information about this matter then please contact to authorities immediately. This matter will be resolved in a quick and timely manner, we are truly sorry citizens of Autodale and we will find the lost citizens at once. This concludes our PSA."

A lone figure walks the sidewalks of the seemingly empty neighborhood. His path was illuminated by the tall and slender street lamps that were bent over depressingly, leaving a curved shadow that lay flat on the ground.

The figure himself wore a black fedora that hid all of his hair and a mask that covered his whole face which had a smile carved onto it. He wore a suit with a black tie and was holding plastic bags that were full of food.

His footsteps were then followed by a metallic clamping noise that got louder by the second. "Ugh...not now." He mumbles under his breath. The man then came to a halt and so did the noise behind him.

"Greetings, citizen." A formal and robotic voice said behind the man. He turns around to see a tall robot with a boxy structure and long legs and round beady eyes. The man clears his voice and stands up straight "Ah. Er- hello sir." He stuttered. The robot cocked his head to the side, "so uh, what's a dandy handyman like you doing here?" The man made a stupid remark and regretted what he said.

The handyman grew suspicious of the man and bent down to his level. "Hm. I see it's a late-night run to the store citizen." It said while turning its head to the bags the man was holding. "Oh, uh. Yes haha, my wife sent me to go and get food..." The man kept fumbling on his words making the handyman more and more suspicious of him.

"I'm so sorry sir, I'm in a rush to get home. I hope to see you around again" The man said while turning around. He then was abruptly stopped though by the handyman swiftly grabbing his shoulder and squeezing it, the man's anxiety was rising by the second and his anger was following too. "Wait...citizen." The handyman said, the man gulped in his anxiety and anger "...yes?" His voice cracked. "Have you noticed anything strange?" The handymans tone changed into a more serious fashion. The man turned his head to the side, "no sir...no." he stuttered again.

"Please, just leave me be you wreched thing." The man thought to himself. The handyman slowly was cocking his head to the side, the silence between them was deafening and awkward. "Citizen..." the handyman broke the deafening silence and its voice was noticably deeper. The man's heartbeat accelerated and he was breathing faster. "Not now not now not now not now no-"

"Be safe citizen." The handyman said in a chipper tone breaking the man's train of thought. Without a thought the man speed walked away from the handymans grasp and disappeared into autodales foggy night. The handyman jerked back and stood straight up.

Then another pair of metal clamping came behind the handyman. "Anything strange? An identical voice said from behind the handyman. "I would keep an eye on that citizen, something isn't right about him. The handyman said to the other as they both watched the man scurry off into the distance.

The man arrived to his one story home, there wasn't anything special on the exterior. What truly mattered was the interior of his home.

He unlocked the door to be invited by the smell of fresh watermelons that were freshly cut on the dinner table. A woman then walked out of a room, she was wearing a grey robe. Her eyes were a soft green and her hair was long and brown. The man sets the plastic bags down and closes the door behind him. When he turns back around the woman jumps and hugs the man "Oh!" He was surprised by her.

The man hugs her back and they both chuckle "I missed you~" she mumbled, she had a soft and sweet voice. "Oh please I was only gone for 30 minutes." The man responds sarcastically.

The woman then removes the man's mask to reveal his face, he had a pair of blue eyes and a round face. His cheeks were a flush of red due to his speed walking. "Is Erica in bed?" He asked her and she nodded yes. "How are the others?" He asked another question. The woman chuckles "Oh, they're alright. Sage and Charles changed the color of the lights down in the sewer by the way, Sage said it's more inviting."

She then lets go of the man and grabs one of the plastic bags "this one's for us right?" She asks the man, "yeah and the other is too, these three are for them." He responded while picking up the three plastic bags. "Thank you love" She smiled to him and he smiled back.

He then walks outside to the backyard. There wasn't anything there except for a broken-down shed that was backed up against a wall. He opens the shed doors to be welcomed by the smell of cut grass and oil. There wasn't much in the shed, just a lawn mower and gardening tools, and a large sheet of fabric that covered a circular lump.

The man walks in and closes the shed doors behind him. He then kicks off the sheet to reveal a rusted manhole. He then slides the cover off and squats down to look down at the dark abyss. The smell that was emitted was horrid and disgusting making the man audibly gag. "Out of all places, why the sewers..." He grumbled while standing straight up. The man sighed and jumped down the hole into the dark abyss.

The man absorbed the impact of his landing. He stared in the darkness before reaching for a light switch that was on the side. He felt a swich and flipped it up to reveal lights that emitted a rainbow glow. "Yep... definitely inviting alright." He chuckled while walking down the sewers tunnel guided by the welcoming rainbow lights.

As he walked there was an end to the tunnel, at the end was a door with the words "DO NOT ENTER" scribbled all over it. The man then knocked in a rhythmical pattern. The doorknob then rustled slowly, squeaking ever turn. Suddenly the door creaked open and a hand creped across the door. A head then poked out of the crack.

"Hm? Oh hi, Mr felicity!" The mysterious voice said while revealing itself. It was a tall man who answered the door, he wore a fedora that curved to the side and revealed parts of his hair. His face resembled a oval and his eyes were a soft brown. His voice was dapper and he wore a knitted vest over a collared long-sleeved shirt. "Hi, Charles!" Mr. Felicity greeted Charles. "Oh, here by the way." Mr. Felicity continued and handed him the three bags full of food. Charles was shocked by Mr felicities kindness.

"Oh? Are you sure sir? This is a lot of supplies! Charles hesitated to accept this offer. Mr felicity then smiled "Charles, this is the bare minimum I can do for you and the group. What your doing is a wonderful thing for future generations. I could never step up to do this. So believe me when I say this is the least that me and my wife can do."

There then was silence between Mr felicities smile and Charles's confusion and gratefulness. "Oh... I'm... I'm speechless sir." Charles's voice cracked while taking the bags from Mr felicities hands. "Thank you Mr felicity!" He cheered and hugged him. Mr felicity hugs Charles back.

"It's late, hurry and go back up Mr felicity before the smell of the sewers rubs onto you," Charles says while letting go of Mr.Felicity. Charles sends Mr felicity on his way back and closes the door. He rests his back on the door and looks down at the groceries he then looks back up to the back wall which has a flag pinned up on it, the flag was colored red with a white stripe that ran across the middle. In the very center of the flag was an emblem that was an autodale mask split in half.

"For future generations" He mumbles to himself. "I like the ring of that." He continues smiling at this remark. In this seemingly black-and-white world there seemed to be a glimmer of hope. Hope to break free from autodales perfect cycle.

More SW art!

The day has finally come for me to post a Cad Bane doodle! ...well, two.

I didn't finish these all in one go and actually took a few days to finish both (Because I can only focus on something for so long and keep getting sidetracked until like 1 am) but I'm happy enough with them now so I thought I'd share them!

I used references since I'm trying to get better at drawing Bane and improve my art in general but they were more like a guide than anything since I don't like having to rely on refs entirely. I usually try to go without using refs but they were kinda necessary for this 🥲 (Not that using refs is bad, they're life savers! I just prefer trying to learn on my own)

Anyways I think it might be obvious TBB Bane is my favorite Bane... I hope y'all enjoy the doodles :)))

Just some random au idea: I thought about a rebellion AU for Autodale. So, not everyone would rebel from the town because most still would want to stay safe in the walls. But there's a small and secret group in Autodale who has this whole operative to break free from the town because they knew the atrocities that would happen to them if Autodale found out that they knew the truth. Shadow did have a part in this operation too but he couldn't leave the town because he needed to stay to protect the other citizens in Autodale. He helped the small group escape and got severely punished by hive. The group finds out that the outside is habitable and debate whether they should go back to save everyone. Uhh that's all I got so far for this au, ik david said there wouldn't be a mass rebellion but thought of it is fun. Would the group become as corrupt as autodale is or would they strive to be a better town? Idk I'm just thought dumping rn.

A lasting friendship

-just a short little drabble about autodale. I just need fluff about Shadow :D

-Platonic shipping Y/n x The Friendly shadow. (You can think of it as romantic shipping too, only if you want though.)

Tw: none, just pure fluff, usage of y/n, and Shadow pushing you away at first :(

Context- you meet someone who may change everything for you here in Autodale.

Despite being a model citizen and having the world in your hands, you still felt empty. It felt like your life wasn't going forward. You needed something, something fun, like an adventure of some sort. You just didn't know where to start. That is until you met him, the friendly shadow.

Your first encounter with the old man was awkward. You met him in an alleyway on a dark and quiet night.

You don't remember what you doing outside this late, but you ran into him abruptly when you went in the alleyway. His tall and dark frame scared you at first. He didn't have his coat on but he had his hat on. You didn't scream but you were frightened.

On the other hand, you scared shadow too because you popped up out of nowhere and ran into him. He fell back and onto the wet concrete, making the puddle splash everywhere. His hat fell off and landed on your feet.

You could've ran, you could've just forgotten about the situation and went on with your life. But you couldn't, you were too damn kind for this grey world.

Instead, you picked up his hat and reached out your hand to the fallen old robot. "Are, are you okay?" You gulped, even though you were scared of him you still tried to help.

You remember how bright the eyes of the old robot got. You remember how he looked like he just experienced something new. But he was hesitant to take your hand, his eyes were racing with confusion and shock.

"Uhm." He then slowly reached out for your hand. "Yes uhm, I'm alright." His voice was deep and shaky. You pulled him up while holding onto his wide hat, he was heavier than you thought despite his arms being relatively skinny.

You remembered how tall he was and how pale his face was, it was almost as white as the mask you wore. His face was also wrinkled and he had dark eyebags that contrasted with his bright eyes.

You both stared at each other awkwardly, both of you not knowing what else to say or do. This was so new to both of you.

After a hot second, you cleared your throat and reached out to him with his hat. "I believe this is yours." You blurted out embarrassingly.

"Thank you, citizen." He muttered and took his hat from your hand swiftly, it almost seemed rude by how aggressively he took it. He then quickly turned around and walked quickly down the alley. Disappearing from the light and fading into the darkness of the alleyway.

That small gesture that you did, meant everything to him. Even though he left off in a hurry.

After your encounter, you and Shadow would run into each other more often at the most random places. It would start as you simply just waving to him and maybe even saying hi to him. But he never truly acknowledged you, he would just glance over at you with his bright eyes and scurry off somewhere else. Sure seeing his face in public was a little frightening (because he would walk between alleyways and or somewhere dark where other citizens couldn't see him) but you wanted to talk to him. He was like an alleyway cat that would come and go.

One night, you saw him again and you couldn't take it anymore. Your curiosity got the best of you.

"Wait a second!" You exclaimed before he disappeared. You spotted him in the same alleyway as always and stopped him before he walked away.

This caught his attention quickly, he flinched at you exclaiming at him. He stopped in his tracks and turned to face you. His eyes were pacing anxiously as his stance narrowed.

You ran to him across the empty street, adrenaline pulsing through your veins with every step towards him. This was your chance, ever since that day your curiosity about the old robot only grew more. You finally reached him and low and behold, you didn't know what to say.

You both just stood there awkwardly again. Shadows face painted with question and yours with shyness.

"Can I help you?" His voice cracked and he started to fidget with his hands. He wore his coat this time but with the middle unbuttoned, leaving his suit underneath exposed.

You inhaled the cold and dry air and tried to think of something to say. You've been wanting to approach him again ever since you met him and you don't have anything to say!?

"Ehm..." you croaked out a hesitant sound. You then took a hesitant step forward and he stepped backward in return.

You then exhaled and thought of something quick to say. "I don't believe we met properly." You said and held out your hand for a handshake. "My name is Y/N"

Shadow glanced at your hand hesitantly, his eyes beamed like the first time you had done this, only this time he wasn't on the floor making a fool of himself.

He retaliated back slightly, unsure of what to do. He stood so still, that it seemed as if he was paralyzed in place. His mouth opened slightly, preparing to say something.

"Okay." He muttered and attempted to turn around and walk away.

You weren't going to let him disappear into the darkness, not again. You then reached for his hand that swayed against his side and gripped it softly. "Wait." You softly exclaimed.

"I want to be friends!" You blurted out, tugging softly on his robotic arm.

His back was to you as he turned his head over his shoulder, his side profile was well-sculpted and he had the most defined cheekbones you've ever seen.

"With me?" He whispered and began to turn around. You let go of his hand and nodded your head awkwardly. "Me?" He repeated to himself as he stared at the concrete.

"I don't think" He hesitated with his fragmented sentence. His gaze softened for a slim moment before hardening again. "I don't think you should be my friend." He added as he attempted to sound stoic when in reality his voice was underlined with guilt.

He then turned around abruptly and attempted to walk away again. But my God, you were just too stubborn for rejection and you jumped in front of him.

"Wait wait wait wait, I know, I know that was very abrupt! But please! You seem very interesting and well I ju-"

"What do you want from me? No one wants a friendship unless they want something, what is it that you want?" He interrupted you very suddenly. He didn't sound annoyed, he sounded scared.

You flinched at his outburst and stepped back a little.

He then realized what he said and his wrinkled face was painted with guilt. His stance then became even more reserved and he started to fidget with his hands again.

"Oh geez, I'm so sorry I didn't mean to- I mean- I didn't-!"

"It's okay."

Your voice was calm and inviting. You interrupted shadows drabbles and you reached for him slowly. He watched your hand reach for him. Instead of moving backward, he moved toward your hand. You placed it softly on his upper arm.

"I'm sorry." He softly muttered and avoided eye contact with you. He was almost like a child who got in trouble and was apologizing.

"It's just, well, no one has ever asked me to be their friend. Let alone come up to me so comfortably. I- well, I'm just so sorry about how I reacted."

He then pauses and looks at you, his gaze is soft and his face is relaxing slowly. The glow of his eyes softly peaked through the brim of his hat.

"It isn't safe being my friend. Let alone you talking to me." He continued in his calm and deep voice.

"Why is that?"

"I..." He then looks away from you and looks at your hand that caresses his upper arm. He admires your hands for a second and continues his sentence.

"It... it just isn't okay? I care about your safety and everyone else's here in this town. My job isn't to make friends, it's to protect." He sounded so disappointed when he said that. He frowns and holds the hand that you're using to caress his arm.

You weren't going to accept that answer, you wanted to be his friend at this moment. Nothing would stop you. Even if you were labeled as ugly early, or anything else that wasn't pretty, it wouldn't stop you.

"That doesn't mean that you shouldn't have friends, it doesn't mean you should isolate yourself. Whatever it is that may be holding you back, just know that it isn't worth being in isolation."

His eyes beamed and he tilted his head to the side. "I..." He muttered hesitantly.

You then took off your mask, revealing your face to him. He didn't react to how your face looked, but he reacted on how you trusted him enough to show your face (especially since you two were outside/the public.)

You then sighed and slouched slightly. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have pushed you for something so selfish. I shouldn't have pushed so hard for something you're hesitant about. I'll le-"

"Wait." He blurted out and held your other hand that was idly on your side. You drop your mask on the concrete as he holds your hand.

His eyes paced rapidly tracing side to side. Before he finally closed them. He then exhaled softly and opened his eyes.

"I'll be your friend." He said like he had just gotten over a fear. He then interlocked your fingers with yours. You then let go of his arm and he held your other hand interlocking those fingers on his other hand with yours.

"Really?!" You blurted a little too loud as you grinned widely. You squeezed both of his hands but it hurt slightly since his hands were made of metal.

Your response shocked him but he seemed more happy. He grins slightly and stutters. "Oh uh, yes?" He softly chuckles at your response.

You both then calm down and you let go of his hands, it took him a second to let go of yours. "So uh, yeah!" You blurted out to fill the silence. Shadow chuckles and smiles to himself, it's odd seeing him smile but you don't care.

He then jerks up and he looks away from you. A few seconds later he places a finger on the temple of his forehead and says something. "Right, on my way." He mutters to himself. He then removes his finger from his forehead and looks back at you. You asked what happened and he said that it was just something he had to tend to urgently.

"I hope I can see you again." You say to him and put your mask back on. "I hope so too...y/n is it?" He asks hesitantly. "Yep!" You respond and reach your hand out for a handshake. He looks at your hand and reaches out to shake it.

He then turns around and walks into the darkness of the alleyway, but this time with a warm smile painted on his face. You wave to him as you walk out of the alleyway.

This certainly won't be the last time you'll see him.
