    Summary

    Alex Quackity: Look, Thomas Innit, or Tommy as he prefers to be called, killed Dream. This is not the question we are dealing with in this trial. We know where it happened, we know when it happened, we know he was the one who shot Dream point blank in the head. Those are all facts of this case. The question we are raising here is why it happened. The prosecution has suggested to you that it was done out of anger and hatred for the man who had been taking care of Tommy since he was 16. What we will prove to you however, is that it was done out of fear. You will hear evidence that when Tommy began living with Dream when he was 16, his life turned into a living hell. You will hear witness testimony to the cruelty Dream enacted on his charge. You will hear what kind of man Dream was behind closed doors. You will learn that not only was he capable of threatening to end Tommy’s life, you will be surprised it didn’t happen sooner. You will come to understand that what Tommy did was not an act of hatred or malice, but one of fear and desperation to survive.

    or, the trial of Thomas Innit as told through news clips, transcripts, and court documents.

    Summary

    Dream has successfully revived Tommy after beating him to death in Pandora’s Vault.

    Whatever comes back isn’t quite Tommy.

    (Or a Pet Sematary inspired fic which is just basically my want for Tommy to get revenge combined with my love of BAMF! and Dark!TommyInnit)

    Summary

    “Insanity,” he says, eyes flitting across the milky-white pages. “Nothing but insanity.” Mirage smiles and flips a page. The book opens to a charcoal drawing– a faceless void with a sharp grin, and streaks of black across the page in distressed lines without rhyme or reason. Inside the creature’s hands

    death blooms.

    “I think it’s beautiful,” Mirage lets out a breathy voice, studying the art and running his gloved hands over the marks. “There’s always insanity somewhere inside the tortured artist.” He looks at Tommy with a soft honeyed gaze. “At the intersection of art and humanity, there is madness.”

    or;

    Your average vigilante!Tommy fic, but the villains are actually villains.

    Summary

    Tommy was many things: feared, free, powerful… but he wasn’t proud.

    He wasn’t proud of the title he had or the name they’d called him, honestly he didn’t think he deserved it. Tommy never had an evil plan, or a secret lair, or any of the cool things villains had. All he had was a shitty apartment and the clothes on his back, and a desire for more.

    He couldn’t be a civilian, and he certainly wouldn’t be a hero, so he did what he had to do.

    At fifteen years old, Red Death killed the top heroes in L’Manburg, and Tommy became a villain.

    Or: Two years ago, the top heroes of L'Manberg were killed by Red Death. Now, ex-villain Tommy tries to juggle the fallout while also forging new relationships, some of which may be more complicated than they seem.
