Summary
"Why's a kid all the way out here by himself?" he asks, slinging his rifle back over his shoulder. The boy bristles as he looks back, his shoulder hiking up. "What kind of a question is that. I'm not asking you why you're here, am I? Why are you so fucking nosy? Also, it's none of your business." the boy responds.
Technoblade holds his hands up placatingly. "I'm just bein' polite, which is actually really nice of me, considerin' you're the one who just attempted to rob me." he says. "You've got way too much shit for just one guy. Really, I'm doing you a service taking some of it off your hands. Very heavy, carrying all that stuff. Can't be good for your back. I was just trying to be helpful." the boy replies.
___Or, in which Technoblade meets Tommy, and decides, against his better judgement, to help this weird kid out.

Summary
Someone is knocking on Technoblade's door. Well, it's more of an erratic thumping with no clear rhythm to it than knocking, if anything. Technoblade doesn't even have to call out to ask who's at the door. Nobody else would knock like that.
___Or, HIASBSP bedrock bros reunion :)

Summary
“Hi Tommy.” a voice croons just behind him, violently snapping Tommy out of his thoughts. Tommy's still groggy mind wakes up instantly, and his blood goes cold. He freezes up, body going rigid. He can do nothing but sit still, rooted to his spot by pure terror and fear. He doesn't even dare turn around, too afraid to face the man he knows that voice belongs to. Maybe he hopes that it's a hallucination from his lack of sleep, or he's finally collapsed and this is a nightmare. Deep down though, he knows this is real, and that makes it all so much worse.
___Or, Dream kidnaps Tommy and makes true on his promise.

Summary
After Technoblade finds Tommy sitting on the edge of a cliff in L'Manberg's crater, a lot of things ensue, which eventually results in Technoblade taking a vulnerable Tommy back home to a cabin in the cold tundra.
While they're there, the two of them reluctantly work together to set out onto the road of recovery and reconciliation. The road is not without its bumps, but they'll traverse the harsh terrain and distance together, hand in hand.
___Continuation of Atlas, not Theseus! You should definitely read that one first before getting started on this, otherwise it won't make any sense.

Summary
Before him stands Wilbur Soot, a man, his father, that he hasn't seen in what is probably months but feels like years. He looks nothing like he remembers him. Nothing like the perfect image of him that has always stayed in his mind, but nothing like the broken image of a man he couldn't recognize when he first saw him in Pogtopia either. Somehow, he looks even worse, even more wrong, and Fundy's scared that if this keeps up that one day he won't even recognize him.
___Or, Fundy and Wilbur reunite and talk for the first time since the Manberg vs Pogtopia war.

Summary
"... He did what?" Wilbur vacillates, his face paling and his brows creasing in confusion and concern. Tommy blinks at him while trying to even his breathing again, and then he narrows his eyes. "…What do you mean?" he asks, his gaze confused and suspicious. When Wilbur opens his mouth again but nothing comes out, Tommy resorts to guessing. "Do you... do you not know what he did to me?" he puzzles, his own brows creasing much like Wilbur’s.
___Or, Tommy and Wilbur have a little chat that ends with a decision neither of them thought they'd ever make.

Summary
Tommy had begged Dream not to bring back Wilbur. He had even offered up his friendship on a silver platter in exchange for a promise. It was almost admirable, but at the same time it was so pathetic. No, Dream would bring back Wilbur, and together they'd get revenge on all of those who wronged them.
___Or, Dream brings back Wilbur, but it goes a bit differently than he expects.

Summary
Tommy tenses immediately. He doesn’t want to think about exile, especially not when having been confined and locked in close quarters with the man in question had already helped to resurface all of the memories he’d buried. “Do we have to talk about it?” Tommy asks, his anxiety spiking. Tubbo looks at him regretfully and conflicted. “Yes. Yes we do.” He sounds small saying it, desperation bleeding through the surface-level worry. “I can’t- I-“ Tommy stammers, already unable to voice his thoughts. “We’ll take it slow.” Tubbo says, grabbing his hand and giving it a squeeze.
___Or, Tommy and Tubbo have a talk that has been long overdue.

Summary
It’s days later when it finally hits him. It’s when he’s staring at the flowers planted around his home. It’s when he looks at the tributes built around it, littering the sides of the path. It’s when there’s no certain blonde haired boy, sitting on a nearby bench playing a disc in a jukebox and humming along. It’s when it’s quiet, now that there’s no one around to whoop excitedly and playfully shout profanities.
___Or, Tubbo can no longer deny the truth.

Summary
After walking for a bit, he’s stopped in his tracks by the sight in front of him. Tommy is stood there, staring at the statues littering the lawns around his home.
“…Tommy?” he asks, disbelievingly, slowly inching closer. That can’t be him, right? Because Tommy died. Brutally beaten to death by none other than the man who he had been fighting against from the beginning.
___Or, Jack Manifold spots a familiar figure admiring the statues that have been built in Tommy's memory.

Summary
A rough gasp resounds through a dark and empty place devoid of much of anything. The owner of the gasp coughs violently. His head is throbbing and every inch of his body feels like it's on fire.
Eyes shooting open, he surveys the environment he's in. It's not much. A void would be the best way to describe it. There's no source of light yet he can see just fine. Looking down at himself, he spots steadily blossoming bruises, accompanied with a fair amount of blood he assumes to be his own. That would certainly explain why everything hurts so much.
___Or, a boy too young to have to face the horrors of the world meets a familiar face in an unfamiliar place.

___Or, Tommy is trapped in Pandora's vault with the last person he wanted to get stuck with.
