Summary
"I haven't manifested yet," Tommy says, shrugging. "So I can't."
"You haven't? Really?"
Tommy nods. Doesn't look at her.
He's lying, and it's hard because he's never been the best at it, but he doesn't have much of a choice here. He's- Tommy, and Niki is Niki. Her shifted form is a fucking dove for prime's sake. She's the symbol of love and peace, universally liked. She's written into the bible by Jesus H. Christ, that's how loved she is.
Tommy isn't written into anything, isn't anywhere. He couldn't possibly compare.
or, In a world where everyone shifts, Tommy lies to his family about his form. What happens when the truth comes out?

Summary
“Tommy?” The man says, his hand still wrapped around Tommy’s wrist, and Tommy falters, whipping his head around. “Are you- Is it really-?”
Tommy blinks. Stares. Squints a little.
At the back of his mind, it sinks in that this is a familiar face, a friend.
Who Tommy met two hundred years ago.
(Or, SBI are immortals just having a life, and Tommy is a time traveler who’s been wandering for quite a while.)

Summary
“Be my apprentice,” Icarus blurted.
Tommy blinked. Gradually, the corners of his mouth dropped into the deepest frown he’d ever made. “What the fuck? Why?”
“Why?” Icarus froze and Tommy raised a judgemental eyebrow. “It’s because of your powers.”
“My powers,” he echoed. “I never told you whether or not I had powers.”
“I can… sense them,” Icarus bullshitted. Tommy pinched the bridge of his nose.
“Right. What are they, then,” he retorted.
“Uh… super… powers,” the villain answered, sounding more unsure of himself by the second.
Tommy wanted to bash his head against a wall. “Really? That’s the best you could do?”
------
Tommy isn’t sure why handing someone their keys is such a big deal, but now he’s left with a huge problem: Every supervillain in the city wants him to be their apprentice!

Tommy’s lame superpower turns out to be a game-changer.

Summary
"Let's start making it happen." As soon as those words fell out of Schlatt's mouth, a bright light nearly blinded everyone as well as the sound of a portal's unnatural hum.
When the light died down and everyone got their vision back, a portal, structured like a Nether Portal but built out of metal and stone, glowing silver, stood right between and before the stage and the audience. They were stunned as a figure came out of said portal, tall, decked out in full enchanted netherite. A man with a familiar mask but unfamiliar clothes stood.
"Where's Dream?" The man with the red hood, wearing Dream's mask immediately asked.
Before anyone could even react or answer, the portal behind him flared brightly and the man jumped away with an annoyed grunt as another man decked in netherite tumbled out of the silver glowing portal. Wild dark hair, dark blue eyes, burnt scars underneath his chin-
"Tubbo?" Tommy muttered in surprise, somehow recognizing him as his best friend.
"Tommy!" The older Tubbo screamed, but not at Tommy who stood beside Wilbur. But at the masked man with the red hood.
Two broken men stay in the past in hopes of a better future.

Summary
The royal family of Antarctic empire isn’t exactly close.
Emperor Philza is always occupied; Tommy hasn’t seen Techno in months, and even if Wilbur is here, their relationship can be described to be strained at best.
The royal family doesn’t need to be close, however, it only needs to be balanced, like the pillars holding the country above their heads – as long as they are strong and steady, the Empire will be too. It’s the principle that held Tommy’s back straight and his shoulders broad through the years of hardships and trials of errors; through yet another formal meeting where his father’s gaze would look past him and where his brother’s words would be filled with poison that makes the deepest parts of his soul ache.
At that time, Tommy couldn't know that his family would find a replacement for him in the face of a commoner boy named Ranboo.
~🦋~
Tommy's family has replaced him. It's only fair that he gets to do the same.
