    Summary

    Tommy had lived and died as Theseus, Icarus, Orpheus and Sisyphus. But all he wanted to be was free.

    In which Tommy Soot, originally born in 1509, is cursed to be reborn, to never reach adulthood unless he figured out the Greek myth of his lifetime. He had one rule of not allowing himself to get attached to people but he would have never guessed that a foster family of the creator of Minecraft, an anime stan and a Soundcloud musician would break that rule.

     

    ~ SBI Foster AU but with Greek mythology.

    Summary

    The Crafts seem to be a perfect family, idyllic and peaceful.

    They aren’t really, but every member is perceived to be the epitome of skill and the very models of the ideal citizen...

    And there's Tommy, the youngest. 

    He's...well, not special, not exceptional, not magical. He cannot make people feel relaxed from a small conversation, can't move figurative mountains with natural strength, can't create music that entrances those who dare to hear. He's the dirty boy who ate mud when he was a kid, makes friends with the bugs that everybody retches at, loves the unlovable things like ants parading down the sidewalk or little spiders that make intricate webs in the corners of his windows.

    He's himself.

    And perhaps that's the worst thing he could ever be.

    Or, I took Knee Deep at ATP and turned it into SBI angst.

    Summary

    “You do understand that you’re caring for the thing meant to bring destruction and chaos to our world, right?” The woman asks, Phil looking behind him fondly as Techno grabs at the ends of his wings.

    “He’s just a child.” Phil answers distractedly, humming as his wings get gently yanked at.

    “He’s the first of three to destroy life as we know it! Shouldn’t we, well, get rid of him?!”

    “Oh, no.” Phil raises his eyes with a sharp glare. “Believe me, I have my own way of preventing the apocalypse.”

    ---

    Or, Techno, Wilbur, and Tommy are basically chaotic forces of nature, destined from birth to end the world and bring destruction. Most who hear of the tale of them are trying their best to track them down, and to end the monsters while they’re still young, still just children.

    Phil has a different plan.

    (In which Phil raises the minecraft equivalents of the anti-christ with love and support, so much so to the point where the world ending is really just a funny thought, and Phil has three kids who casually have powers that are bit more extreme than anything else in the world)

    Summary

    “W-What do you- I mean can I- are you here to rob us?” The person managed to stammer out.

    Siren snorted. “No. I’m just here to order some food.”

    “Wh-What about him?” The cashier asked, glancing at Tommy. “Did you- did you kidnap him?”

    “I mean… yeah, let’s go with that in case this ends up on the news,” Siren shrugged, looking back at Tommy. “I kidnapped you, right?”

    “Yeah, sure,” Tommy agreed, knowing that if they said he was kidnapped, it would keep people from getting suspicious of why he was seen in public with Siren. “Anyway, can I get the chicken nuggets happy meal, with a coke?”

    or, how Tommy—who is not a hero, or a villain, or even a vigilante—saves the life of one of L'Manberg's most feared supervillains, and accidentally ends up becoming the resident doctor for every supervillain in town (and maybe gets a family along the way too).

    Summary

    This kid was so small.
    That was Phil’s first thought upon opening his front door—that the kid on his front porch was so small. Too small for the warnings heaped upon Phil by the state, warnings of wild magic and dangerous words, of the treachery and trickery that came hand in hand with the legends of the fae. Phil had known many fae over the course of his lifetime, both kind and cruel. The kid on the front porch just looked like a kid.
    He just looked scared.

     

    Or: Phil signs up to be a foster parent and ends up just stacking traumatized kids in his house.
