    Summary

    Prince Theseus, a child of blonde and blue, a child of isolation and a crave for touch. He's the youngest in the Royal Family, and somehow the most forgotten. The most neglected. The most alone.

    Tucked away in his tower, the young prince watches the world move on without him, watches his family welcome two new princes into their arms, and yet reject him when he cries desperately from nightmares or shivers from a painful wound.

     

    "Wilby?" The child had murmured, all curious and hesitant at once. He was tucked in his older brother's lap, watching as his other sibling sparred with their father. "We'll always be together, right? Forever and ever?"

    Wilbur smiled. "Of course, Tommy. Forever and ever."

     

    The Hanahaki rising in young Theseus' throat says otherwise.

    Summary

    Spiders are both overlooked and feared. They spin their webs, catch their kills and move on. Some hunt, finding their prey and stalking until the kill.

    Tommy’s not a Huntsman Spider anymore, though. He made sure of that when the skies bled black with smoke and the horizon was stained with orange and red.

    From a class of twenty-eight to a class of one.

     

    Or, Tommy has escaped the Red Room, only to stumble into the lives of a family of Villains, who want him to join their ranks, a corrupt businessman and his makeshift family and a bunch of Heroes, who swear they want to help him.

     

    Now with a Sequel: Come in from the Cold, Huntsman.

    Summary

    Tommy Innit may not be the most well-behaved kid or even the best person at times, but he certainly deserves better than to be abducted by aliens.

    Now he just has to figure out where to go from here.

    __________

    Philza just wants to fly his cargo ship with his two sons, he's left behind all the excitement of his old life, so when he hears rumors of a human crash landing on the trading post where they are docked, he gathers up what he had managed to get and takes off again.

    Summary

    Tommy doesn’t understand why they haven’t killed him yet.

    He was given to them that night in a shady alley after spending the entire journey hearing about how they were going to torture him horribly and kill him without mercy. He knew the Watson family were notorious tortures and took great pleasure in doing it.

    He was sure that offering him his own fully decked out room was just one step into their torture plan.

    And he was positive that them giving him blankets and warm clothes was another part of it.

    He wasn’t sure what asking if he wanted syrup and butter on his pancakes was about but he’s sure it’s got to do with something nefarious.

    Or:

    In which Tommy is sold to a rival gang and doesn’t understand that they’ve adopted him.

    Summary

    Tommy knew that messing with the most important shipment of the quarter was a bad, awful idea.

    Now he was alone, at eleven pm, nothing to defend him against the cold as he pulled in shopping carts but a thin red hoodie.

    Luckily, he had a few people in his corner for him

    Summary

    His name was Tommy Innes, and he was born to touch the stars.

    Of course, touching the stars was going to have to wait, because he'd lost that dream the moment his parents had died when he was ten years old—the moment he had watched that starship explosion and felt a bit of his heart die with them. He'd lost that dream when he was transported to prison and then to a place called Pogtopia.

    He'd lost that dream when he watched hundreds of children starve on the streets of Pogtopia. When he and two friends become the lone survivors of the Red Planet's Genocide. When they were rescued, and he was captured again.

    But maybe—maybe one day, he would regain that dream. Maybe he would hunt down the mass murderer that had executed his friends and gain his revenge—but that day was not now, and now he sat in a prison and stared at the faraway stars.

    Perhaps there would be people that he could call family again. People he would see again—people whom he had lost years ago. One day.

    Because he was an Avian, born to be forever alone amongst broken stars.

    And Avians did not fall unless they wanted to.

    Summary

    ***

    "Techno?"

    "Yeah Tommy?"

    "What does the sky look like?"

    Techno paused, the question, like most of Tommy's questions made his heart ache for reasons he didn't understand.

    "I'll show it to you one day" he doesn't know why he says that, he knows by now not to make promises he doesn't know he can keep.

    "Really?"

    "I promise" and he swears to himself he'll find a way to keep it.

    ***

    Or Techno is a hero on a mission that quickly gets derailed when he meets Tommy, a boy who's spent his whole life locked in one room with only Dream, the biggest villain of the century, for company.

    Summary

    “Is this real?”

    He wanted some sign, some reassurance that this was some fucked up dream- that he would wake up back in L’Manburg. Where he would be able to see Tubbo- see the people who are suppose to be his friends-

    'It’s as real as you want it to be Tommy, I’m here because of you after all.'

    ----

    After finally reaching his breaking point with no one to turn to, Tommy looks to the new voice in his head for help.

    Summary

    Dream, Tommy decided, was a dickhead— and Tommy didn't listen to dickheads anymore. Not after Wilbur and his promises of grandeur, not after Schlatt and his stupid fucking decree, and especially not after Technoblade and his egotistical stories.

    So instead of jumping off his tower and watching his brains go splat on the ground by Logstedshire, Tommy let himself fall into the water.

    Or,
    Tommy runs away during exile and finds a place and people to help him heal. Set over a span of four years.

    Summary

    Tommy is an aspiring hero in a city full of the most powerful heroes. He's not well liked by the civilians and other heroes - more importantly, the police force, who is after him any chance they get. Despite the constant criticism, he tries his best to help.

    After a battle with the Pyromanic Sapnap went wrong, he met some of his favorite heroes - the Sleepy Bois Inc, the most powerful in the city - no, the world. He'd looked up to them since he was small (er, smaller).

    "What the fuck kind of name is Wife Haver, anyways?"

    Clearly, the adoration was not mutual.

    Summary

    "That was Floaty. Or at least, that's what I'm calling him. Fucking kid won't tell us his name," Dream carried on like nothing had happened, and from beside Techno, Wilbur started wheezing like he was dying. "I think he's twelve or thirteen. Wind magic, he's quick and real snarky, very malnourished, blind-"

    "Wait, blind?" Techno peered harder at the communicator. Wilbur stopped laughing. "How the hell is he able to slip by you then?"

    "Uses the air currents like feelers, I think," Dream's breath was coming heavier as he carried on running. "Gets an idea of where things are in relation to him. He doesn't always get it right, sometimes there are cracks in things big enough to feel like an escape route and he slams into a wall. Or he doesn't angle close enough to the ground and trips on things. He's uh-" Dream flipped the communicator around, and Techno blinked as Bad flew through the air, screeching the whole way. "He's slippery."

    ---

    TLDR: Blindinnit has wind magic and gets himself adopted by the Antarctic Empire's royal family.

    Summary

    Dream would kill him. Dream was going to kill him- he was going to- no, he wouldn’t. Dream was his friend- friends don’t hit each other- Dream was supposed to take care of him- Dream /was/ taking care of him.

    It hurt to breathe. It hurt to think. He couldn’t clear his thoughts as he stumbled to the family computer, pulling up a tab on google and frantically typing the name into the search bar.

    The words Technoblade Watson stared back at him, the little black bar at the end of the letters blinking slowly, mocking him.

    Why, of all people, did it have to be Technoblade?

    in short: the one where dream sucks as a parental figure, tommy runs away, and visits his least favorite family member technoblade
