The other 'dimensions' didn't exist until Sonic shattered the prism and refracted "light" to create the illusion of other dimensions. The alternate versions of his friends were more like concepts than static, everpresent beings with a past of their own.
You can think of them as though they're the light refracted off of and distorted from the images of his friends.
Sonic, being the one to break the prism, was not exposed to this refraction in the same way as he was at the epicenter and therefor no light made any illusions based off of him. He did however become a paradoxical fallacy and existed in a sort of… Schrödinger's Box state?
Shadow, doing a no-clip chaos control at the very moment the prism broke, avoided this event all together.
At least, that's how I understand it? I feel like the other dimensions went away once the prism was put back together. There was a lot of imagery of refraction/prisms (layers of colour) spreading out upon shattering, so I'd imagine if each layer of colour represents a paradox dimension/alter, then putting it back together would squish everything down again.
That might also be why Green Hill Zone broke since its components were spread out rather than layered all at once like they're supposed to be?
Btw I was thinking about Sonic Prime
Does Sonic have alternate versions of himself like his friends do? If so where the hell was he? Did he get like replaced by original Sonic? What about Shadow? (he's always a no-show so this isn't too important)
Maybe i'm just stupid or I zoned out I have no clue. Don't tell me it's just some meta projection of his mind that's so lame and lazy
thinking about how identity is explored within blue eye samurai more as an affliction rather than something that is assigned by the self...
how mizu never once called herself a samurai (referring to herself as a 'swordsman') but others will assign virtues to her as though she is - only to get upset at her when she does not fight with honor
how mizu must perform masculinity, but how this is inauthentic to herself. as is every other performance of gender for her.
this also extends to characters like akemi who also have their identities 'inflicted' upon them from all directions...
Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.
old comic about shadow finding comfort in his blue husband's sweetness...

I've been headed to the top Just to look back down And over my shoulder Every smile comes unwound again I'm a little bit of a monster.

Those new wings forced me to hop on the bandwagon. I drew this with the song 'bit of a monster' by vylet pony in mind. sure, the wings are cool, but i can't help but to wonder how shadow feels about them?
one of my favourite routes in shth (2005) is "the tragedy's conclusion" (154) where shadow realizes that she's kind of a monster that never should have been created in the first place. after all, it was shadow's very creation that lead to so much destruction and despair in the first place.
traced some of the dreamcast renders and applied my headcannons to em for funsies one night :]
