    Summary

    The first time it happens, Tommy is sure it’s a mistake.

    It has to be. His coach is... strict, but he is the only constant Tommy really has nowadays. He wouldn’t just leave him.

    Tommy ignores the choke of doubt that floods up his throat, the one that says, He would.

    The minute Tommy stops being good, he would.

    ~ or, ice skater!tommy and his bad tendency of being left behind.

    (aka three times tommy was left behind by his coach plus one time he thought his team left him behind. spoiler: they'd never.)

    Summary

    “Tom, wait,” Phil says, fingers curling around Tommy’s arm. Tommy barely catches himself from ripping away. Phil frowns. “Kiddo. What’s going on?”

    Tommy feels Techno and Wilbur staring at him. He burns.

    “Nothing you’d care about.”

    Phil flinches.

    ~
    or, after Phil takes in Wilbur and Techno, Tommy feels unloved. He spirals.

    Summary

    “My gold.” Techno spoke, thousands of voices echoing in his words. Whispering and chattering. His calloused hand reaching up, dragging along the blood that was dripping from Tommy’s neck. Dripping down and burning away in the flames consuming the roots that held him.

    The same hand that had fed him and given him shelter, as involuntary as it had been, was gently placed at the back of his skull. Techno’s thumb pulling across the golden earring that now felt like an anchor dragging him below the surface of a pool of magma.

    Wearing Techno’s face, the Blood God grinned at him.

    Tommy did not regret punching him.

    ***

    Td;lr: Tommy unwillingly takes refuge into the hold of a banished god.

    Summary

    It was all a fucking lie. All of it!

    Tommy couldn’t stop his trembling and he desperately tried to get a hold of himself.

    He needed to get Wilbur out of here. He needed to call the fucking police.

    But he couldn’t do that with his stalker in the goddamn café. It wasn’t safe. And surely Wilbur would hear him if he tried to unlock the storage room again.

    What would he do if he found out that Tommy knew?

    Summary

    Tommy blinked. “Uh- no, I-”

    “Okay, so what? Ghost whisperer? Ghostbusters? You don’t have any type of beeping lights. How would people know you’ve ‘gotten the ghost’?”

    “Why are you using quotation marks?” Tommy had asked. “I- I really do see ghosts. For real. None of that fake TV shit.”

    ...

    Oh. His hands are on Tommy’s arms. His hands are on Tommy’s bare arms.

    Tommy stiffens and Wilbur pulls away sharply, his eyes widening further in the same realization.

    “Shit,” Wilbur goes, “fuck, sorry, sorry. You don’t like to be touched- my bad, I’m-”

    or, Tommy, Tubbo and Ranboo are the new mystic shop in town, and SBI seems to have a ghost problem on their hands. Luckily, Tommy is an expert on ghosts- not so much family dynamics though. Maybe he'll learn as he goes. Maybe- if his empathic and telepathic magic doesn't get in the way of it.
