    Summary

    Helping a young, wild mer get free from a net was pretty standard work for marine biologists and mer experts Wilbur and Phil. But Wil couldn’t get it out of his head.
    Maybe it was the other mer’s worryingly bony frame. Or the fact that their distress call had summoned none of their podmates. (Wilbur always got attached too fast).

    Or: mer!Clingyduo aren’t bad at living alone, per se. It’s more like everything dangerous in this goddamned ocean is bad at leaving them alone. (Much like sbi, once they realize what’s going on).

    Summary

    Where were this kid’s parents? Who lets their kid sleep on the side of the road!?

    “Hey kid,” Techno said, nudging the kid.

    There was no response other than his eyes squeezing together.

    “Kid,” Techno tried again, firmer.

    Yet again there was no response from the kid.

    Techno sighed. He couldn’t have this kid sleeping on the side of the road.

    So, he had a bad idea.

    An absolutely terrible idea.

    Or, Techno accidentally adopts a strange kid.

    Summary

    Tensing his muscles, Tommy launched himself out of the water with his tail and maneuvered through the shining hoop, flipping once before diving back gracefully into the water.

    He could hear the crowd's screams even under the water, and he heard Dream’s excited yell as he threw the hoop aside. Letting the success wash through him, Tommy made his way back to the surface for photos and goodbyes, making sure to smile as he sought out different cameras in the crowd.

    He barely managed to hide his flinch when Dream pulled him to his side, grin sharp as the locals snapped their photos.

    Tommy is a mermaid, held captive at a theme park with Dream as his coach. SBI are mers as well, and break him out.

    Summary

    Tommy has never left his ocean, as much as he wanted to, and it looks like that fact will never change

    Wilbur is just a guy working at his fathers' rescue center, who is probably imagining the numbers that don't match up in the recent rescue mission.

    turns out, they were both wrong.

    Summary

    “My brother is not some trophy to be won! He’s not a toy or a prisoner, he’s not something you can have! He’s not a sparkly new car or limited-edition stamp, he’s a person!” 

    “How dare you do this? He’s just a kid, Dream!” Techno shouts and it reverberates through the glass. He feels it deep inside of himself, it’s gross and cheesy to say, but he feels it in his soul. Something about his words, about his anger, resonates with his heart, with him. “I don’t know what messed with you to make you think this is okay but it’s not! My family are not collections, they’re my family. What have you done?”

    OR

    Tommy, despite being a merfolk, has never seen or visited the sea. He's always been stuck in his tank where Dream shows him among his friends and coworkers. One day, he brings Technoblade over, who upon seeing him, immediately frees him and offers to show him the world he's been kept from.

    Summary

    It was against Techno’s nature, as a siamese fighting mer, to let others so close. Phil was the exception, as the mer who saved his life, but there wasn’t supposed to be anyone else.

    And then, one day, Phil came home with a tiny bundle of teeth and claws, and Techno's dormant soul-scales finally lit up. The intricate white all along his tale and going up his sides; swirls and dots all coming together in a delicately perfected pattern, glowed like the sea-lanterns that lit their cave. A rush of emotion rolled through him, and he couldn't help but tip closer, peeking at the little hurting mer in Phil's arms.

    "Techno," Phil said softly, and the mer shifted, blinking two huge bright blue eyes at him, "meet Tommy."

    or, Techno finds his soulmate. He immediately gets attached.

    Summary

    The world is ending.

    Ever since that boat came through, trailing the sickness behind it like an octopus releasing ink. The iridescent slime that looked so pretty when it first arrived. The three of them gazed at it in wonder on the water’s surface, hypnotized by the way its colors shifted faster than a cuttlefish and its silvery metallic appearance. Just like one of the human boats.

    Wil swam through it on a dare. They all laughed as he darted in headfirst.

    That was until he emerged on the other side, heaving and clawing at his gills in pain.

    And that was only the beginning.

    It spread its tendrils further into the water and their home turned into hell.

    Summary

    “You’re going to answer me, pup, or you’re not going to like the consequences.” Techno warns him, and Tommy nods his head slightly, trying his best not to get on Techno’s bad side.

    “Good,” Techno practically purrs, before he tilts his head every which way, as if he was looking for something. His chest rumbles deeply in a reassuring manner, as he tries to get Tommy to calm down like he was some small little pup. It works, no matter how much Tommy hates that it does but the noise has his muscles relaxing, the tension draining from his limbs.

    Techno gives him a pleased look, rubbing his massive thumb along his cheek, tracing one of the scars there. Tommy tries his best not to wither under his intense gaze.

    Or Tommy gets himself into trouble with the Syndicate, a dangerous trio of mer, and ends up becoming part of their pod.

    Summary

    While he was Dream’s- while he was with Dream, he didn’t question how he felt. Things were as they had always been. He couldn’t deny or disagree with anything. He had to be perfect. But thinking back, every moment is tinged with stress and the feeling of holding his breath, like one wrong noise would bring him harm.

    Now, though? Everything is so much lighter. He can finally breathe. He takes in a large gasp of air, and he sings as loud as he wants. And he sings off-key with a crackly voice, but he sings all the same.

    //

    or, Tommy's adventures in healing and moving on after leaving Dream

    Summary

    Tommy had just finished descaling his fish and was just starting to bite into it when a sudden shiver went down his spine. The water hadn’t changed in temperature from what he could tell, so the chill felt purely subconscious and instinctual. After a moment's pause, Tommy was alerted to what exactly had triggered his likely fear response when he heard a bone-chilling call ring out through the water, almost beckoning him to follow it.

    Oh no.

    A siren.

    The storm had landed Tommy in siren territory.

    He was more than just screwed, he was absolutely fucked.

    OR, mer!Tommy is dragged into unfamiliar territory by a storm, he's found by siren!sbi in the aftermath, and adoption ensues.

    Summary

    Growing up on the streets, Tommy was quick to find that taking on the guise of a monster was about the best way he could go around and get what he needed for way less than it should have been. It wasn’t exactly hard, as his forked tongue usually got people to move out of his way pretty quickly. With the added bonus of horns and a pointed tail, he didn’t look very kind, so he didn’t have to act it either.
    He was not a normal hybrid, as you could imagine. He was obviously not a human either, who looked normal until you found out that they had managed to bind their soul with the creatures that stalked in the shadows. You tended not to mess with those people.
    No, he was neither. Or, rather, both.
    It’s complicated, ok? Tommy had the traits of a hybrid, with a tail and horns, but he had the powers of a human that had bonded their soul. It really meant that he had the power scale of a high-level threat, without the added bonus of surprise.
    And he did not like what was his to be taken.

    Tommy's a demon hybrid and demon Technoblade and his host Wilbur are both very confused by this

    Summary

    Phil had fostered plenty of children. Older, younger, of every gender, of every background. He’d been at this for a while and he’d seen some serious shit.
    This… this was a new one.
    “It’s not me,” Tommy stressed, laying his palms flat like he was offering everything he had. “It’s the house. There’s something in the house.”
    Phil could handle doctor appointments. He could handle therapy, psychologists, and strange medical diagnoses. He could handle teenage stress and angst, he knew a thing or two.
    But… ghosts?
    That was not one of his lists of expertise.

    or

    Phil has to decide between his denial of the paranormal and his frightened foster child.

    Summary

    “I need advice,” Tommy blurted out. It couldn’t wait. “Either that or I need a doctor. Maybe an exorcist.”
    Quackity laughed. “I can’t say I’m in either of those fields or in any place to give advice. I run a casino.”
    Tommy sighed. “Yeah, but you’re the only one that's been part of…” Tommy took in a breath. “That side of things.” Q hummed on the other end, the creak of his chair audible through the speakers. “Listen, I blacked out in an alley about a week ago in costume, but I somehow got home without any memory of it. And now all of my grocery lists keep disappearing but everything I wrote down on them keeps just appearing out of thin air. I’ve gotten care packages that seem like they’re at the wrong address about three times now.” This was so fucking strange. “And last night! I told myself I would get up early to do laundry but I missed my alarm— but it had already been done! I don’t— I don’t know what to do, big Q.” His breath was shaky. “I don’t know what this is.”

    or

    Tommy doesn't know if he's being given gifts or if he's being stalked, but he figures it has something to do with his nightlife as a vigilante.

    Summary

    The goddess brought her hand over to rest on the boy’s forehead, her eyes slipping closed. “I name you Theseus, first of your blood, ruler of the Antarctic Empire and all its lands. Forever may he reign.”
    “Forever may he reign,” Phil echoed in just a whisper.
    Phil didn’t register the rest of the goddess’s stay. He did not remember walking back to the palace or how the doors opened for him when he stepped through. He only came back to himself as his sons looked at him patiently, ready to be told about their brand new charge, the new ruler of the empire.
    “Boys,” he whispered, no longer being able to hold back his tears. “Meet Theseus. Your brother.”
    They had seen kings rise and fall for as long as they had lived. They would forever serve their land and never had they failed, but this… having the very king they were meant to serve be their brother in blood would pose the biggest challenge to their loyalty yet.

    or

    Wilbur met Tommy before Tommy met him.
    “He needs a permanent caretaker,” the doctor told him when Wilbur was called to the room. “He is a transfer patient, but he’s been placed here permanently now.” Wilbur took the folder as he was told to, skimming through lines and lines of medical history and diagnosis after diagnosis. “Just… Wilbur, do your best to keep him company in his final days, alright?”

    or

    Wilbur grows a fond spot for his patient, a kid named Tommy, and fights to find out how to help him in more ways than one.

    Summary

    Technoblade knew taking a nap in an alley wasn't the greatest idea, but never would he have expected to be claimed by a dragon hatchling. This turns out to be a problem, as this human town isn't exactly fond of dragons like them, and neither of them has any family in sight.

    It's up to Techno to keep Tommy safe.

    Summary

    “Kid—” the piglin sighed, but Tommy walked past him with his eyes on the sidewalk. “Wait a minute, kid—”
    “I’m not a fucking kid,” Tommy picked up his pace, “What the fuck do you want?” Tommy didn’t leave any room for error, bluntly demanding the use of any pleasantries that had no use for someone like him.
    “Let me buy you a meal, Tommy.” Tommy’s heart skipped for a moment, almost sure it was a trap. The second part of his head was convinced that even the chance at a meal was enough to follow.
    “What’s the catch?” He jogged forward, still cautious.
    “You let me help you find an alternative to the ring.”
    Tommy rolled his eyes. “Good luck, you’re starting from scratch.”
    Techno smiled. “I can work with that.”

    or

    Tommy and Techno bond over the one thing they have in common: the streets they live on and the hunger for a better life. It didn't go exactly as planned.

    Summary

    “Oh fuck off, they did not.” Tommy craned his neck to see to either side of him, where both of the princes were chained shoulder to shoulder with him. Trying to move his hands ended up with resistance from chains and the pull of two others.
    “I was expecting that gala to be hell, but definitely wasn’t expecting to get fucking kidnapped.” Wilbur tilted his head back so it was resting on the support of both Techno’s and Tommy’s, and they moved away at the same moment so Wilbur just fell backward and hurt his neck trying to catch his own head.
    “Your security is awful,” Techno pointed out with a gesture to Tommy, not that they could really see each other, being chained to each other’s backs.
    “Thank you, Mr. Helpful,” Tommy spat. “I’m fucking here too. It’s not like I staged your kidnapping. Had I known we were going to be kidnapped-”

    or

    The three rival princes of neighboring kingdoms, Tommy, Techno, and Wilbur, get kidnapped at a royal gala. Now they have to work together (god forbid) to get back home.
