    Summary

    Ash sat alone in the factory, watching as the machines groaned to life, gears grinding and turning in a steady, mechanical rhythm. The sound filled the space, echoing off the brick walls, but it did little to quiet the noise in his own head.

    He was trying—failing—to come up with a plan. Something solid. Something that would make everything on the island make sense again. How would he take over everything, how the regime would work into everything, what he would do about The Federation.…and Ewroon.

     

    OR: Ash is grieving after the loss of his daughter and Ewroon finds him in his pondering palace.

    Summary

    Ash gives him a strange look. “You could take a break.”

    Tubbo blows him a raspberry in return, rolling his eyes. Like the second floor will build itself. “Nah, can’t do that.”

    “Well,” Ash starts, pensive. “I'm the leader here. And I say take a day off.”

    Summary

    “No, it’s ok. I don’t mean to run you ragged, it’s just that I need the quartz sooner rather than later.” Ash said with a half shrug.

    “Aw, you’re not running me ragged.” Tubbo laughed. “I like being busy. Besides, you’re nothing compared to-“

    Tubbo’s face shifts, his wrench clatters to the ground as his body stiffens. His brain skipped like a scratched CD or a computer processing too much too quickly. And just for a moment, he swears he could smell gunpowder and alcohol.

    (Tubbo remembers something from his past. He copes in the most ‘Tubbo’ way possible.)

    Summary

    Tubbo didn’t turn, though he can admit that his grin widened. “You look like a fucking burrito,” he said softly, his voice carrying just enough to be heard over both the machinery and the wind. “A really sad burrito. Like a reealllyyy soggy, moldy, sad burrito."

    Ash’s head snapped up, and for a moment, his eyes burned with the kind of indignation only a man buried in fleece could manage. “Why are you so mean, man?..." Ash's voice cracked slightly as he whined, his breath puffing out in a cloud that betrayed just how much the cold had gotten to him.

     

    In which it finally snows on Quesadilla Island! Hooray! In other news, this makes Ashswag think that he doesn't want to feel lonely anymore than he already has, so he stakes the cold-front out with Tubbo; he also gets to struggle with his feelings for the man in the meantime.

     

    OR

     

    I give ashswag a snow day but the drawback is i force him to think about Tubbo for more than necessary. oopsies.
