Drama; For a BumbleKast co-hosted by head writer Ian Flynn on June 30, 2023, the episode celebrated Pride Month by focusing on Sonadow.[2]
The first question was, "How would you execute the character growth for Shadow and Sonic that would most help enable Sonadow?" The following is Ian's response:
“There would have to be an understood vulnerability to Shadow; He would have to open up to a degree that makes him more accessible at a personal level. And it doesn't take much; We've seen hints of it throughout his appearances, it would just need to become established. And from that I think is all you really need to build that bridge because Sonic is casual and accepting enough as he is, and he's going to allow Shadow to be who he is, which is kind of prickly and standoffish as you would have the occasional moment where Shadow lets his guard down and is more empathetic or emotionally available. But otherwise they would both play it fairly cool and aloof, I think.”; Air; Me being a bitch, frost being a hoe, dawn being dawn, and Braxton being a weird sonic fan in one night? Shit CANNOT get weirder
