Just finished that scene I was talking about. Those 14 frames were, in fact, expressive, and it was, in fact, fun to draw.
SOME FOOD FOR THOUGHT: In Team Sonic Racing, one of Tails's lines are "Who's your daddy, Shadow?" If Team Sonic Racing is canon, Tails actually asked an emo hedgehog who his father was. Keep in mind that Shadow's fathers, Black Doom and Eggman's grandpa are both deceased.
