    Summary

    Despite it all, Wil believes himself to be the problem. Wilbur blames himself for the bad, and thinks Techno to be a liar. 

    It’s almost insulting. Technoblade wants to hold him by the face and force him to look into his eyes, to see that he is telling the truth. He wants to repeat reassurance into their heads until it’s all they can think. He wants to, somehow, take the part of Wilbur that betrays himself, and tear it out from his mind, root and stem, so his brother may finally breathe easy. 

    He does none of this. He stays comforting Wilbur with gentle words pushed through his skull, and he waits here on the stone floor, listening out for any more company. 

    (Or, the aftermath of Wilbur's attempt at setting off the tnt. Techno is much more unsteady than he realizes.)

    Summary

    When he was little, he’d dreamed of being an astronaut, of going to space, like every kid did.

    Space was fun, exploratory.

    Or it was supposed to be.

    Summary

    The story does not truly start here.

    No fairytales ever do– no, stories like these often begin in simpler places. Simpler stories, ones that belong to the people and not the kings. Stories that are told around campfires, told around the butter churn and whispered around hearths. Stories told to children as they’re tucked into bed, gentle warm hands soothing their brows and speaking with low tones as they relay the stories of grandeur and magic. Fairytales are often piled upon– one magic spell becomes two. A mother changes the prince’s name to her own dear son. Tommy was once told stories like these.

    (or, the high-fantasy royalty AU starring Tommyinnit as one child king, the Empire as his opponent, and so many politics.)

    Summary

    “What does it say?” she asks. Techno is the exception in literacy rates. He blinks, letting the quote he’d been studying come into focus.

    “Even the finest sword plunged into salt water will eventually rust,” Techno says hoarsely.

    (or, the Dread Pirate Technoblade kidnaps a kid and then accidentally makes friends. He's not very good at this.)

    Summary

    “Don’t leave,” he chokes out. “Don’t leave me, please…”

    “Humans need rest,” Phil repeats. Then, glancing helplessly to Techno and Wilbur, stood next to him, “Right?”

    Tommy’s chest crumples in, eyes stinging.

    Both of them nod, like they know more about him than he does.

    Tommy finds, in this moment, that he loves them so much he can only hate them for it.

     

    ~ or, five times Tommy couldn't ask for a hug and the one time he could (ft. alien!SBI who don't know that humans need attention.)
