    Summary

    "Eyes that last I saw in tears
    Through division
    Here in death's dream kingdom
    The golden vision reappears
    I see the eyes but not the tears
    This is my affliction.
    ...
    Where, as in this
    The eyes outlast a little while
    A little while outlast the tears
    And hold us in derision."
    -T.S. Eliot, "Eyes That Last I Saw In Tears"

    ----------------------------------

    It starts with the ruining of Tommy. (Coincidentally, this is also the death of Dream.)

    Somehow, it ends with the healing.

    Summary

    His last life.

    Dream would take his last life if he tried to go home.

    No.

    Not home.

    Back.

    Would it be so bad though? If he died to see Tubbos L’manburg one more time? To see Tubbo one more time?

    --------

    Focus.

    “Shut up! I am focusing!” The tears fell. They fell hard. They burned his face and made remembering even harder. A sob escaped his lips as he put his head between his knees. He couldn’t remember. No matter how hard he tried he just couldn’t. It was the most difficult thing in the world to remember.

    Ranboo, I know it’s difficult, but you have to-

    The voice stopped mid sentence.

    Ranboo?

    “What? I have to what?”

    Ranboo are you okay?

    “Huh?” This was odd. Why did the voice care?

    “Ranboo? Ranboo whats going on?”

    Tommy.

    --------

    AKA Tommy attempts suicide and Ranboo stops him.
    Years later Tommy helps Ranboo out of a breakdown.

    Summary

    wouldn't you think you were the villain if you kept being told that you were one by a voice in your head? wouldn't you think that your actions are hard to explain if there wasn't something bad happening behind the scenes?

    but what do you do? who do you go to?

    ----
    this fic isn't about techno, but it features techno a lot and with recent news, i am not currently in a state to finish this (even with the files on my computer and thousands of words written in the last month on this fic).

    i will come back to this fic as it was a great comfort to me last year and i only took a break because of personal real life issues that made creative work harder. but i need some time so that i miss him a little less.

    Summary

    PERMANENT HIATUS

    A broken obsidian portal. The smoking remains of a beachside hideout. An angry masked man with a lot of explosives.

    Those were the last things Tommy ever saw before he was left blind and running for his life.

    Inspired by comics by @impcraig on Twitter. Go check them out! They have some epic stuff!
    If any of the Dream SMP say they are uncomfortable with these kinds of fanfiction I will take this down.

    Summary

    Tommy could feel Tubbo growing nauseous from the amount of blood flooding the bathroom’s white tile floor.

    “Just don’t fucking look then!” He snarled in a harsh whisper, no louder than his pained grimaces when he stuck the blade into his arm again. He held his own dull eyes in a deadlock in the mirror.

    Look, I really think we should go get Phil...’ Ranboo said gently, trying to be subtle while he guided the hand holding the knife away from his skin. When Tommy noticed he slammed back into control, plunging the knife so deep into his forearm that the red tip poked through the opposite side. It hurt like bitch but Tommy stayed quiet like he’s supposed to.

    Tommy grinned madly at the fresh river of crimson making its way past his pale skin, collecting around his legs. “Blood for the blood god,” he whispered.

    Blood for the blood god,’ they chanted back.

    ~~~

    Or, classic found family AU but Tommy was rescued from a cult and Phil may be adopting more children than he expected...

    Summary

    People leave. 

    They change their allegiance. They go insane. They betray you. 
    Sometimes they have to leave by force. Sometimes they weren’t on your side to begin with.
    Sometimes they are more than willing to leave you behind. Sometimes you are more than happy to let them, even if you say you forgive them.
    People leave. That is a lesson he has had to learn time and time again.

    But then he thinks about how Ranboo leaves a pink tulip for him every time they visit Michael and Tubbo isn’t there. They think about how Ranboo always calls them when they go mining. Not Phil. Not Techno. Tubbo. They think about how they laugh at his jokes. About how they don’t demand answers from him. How they just get each other.

    He has always been good at ignoring red flags.

     

    the beeduo proposal, except make it tubbo-centric and a bit angsty

    Summary

    Tubbo had been hoping that he'd finally have a moment to breathe, now that he had left Manburg.

    Fate must have different plans, because he didn't think having an agonising crisis in the middle of Techno's potato farm counted as any form of relaxation, actually.

    Summary

    It didn’t quite click into him, not until he registered the pain in Tubbo’s eyes, the way Ranboo set one foot in front of the other and hunched over his friend protectively. Then he saw the blood, matting a head of golden hair, clumping the strands together, and he knew, he knew, he knew and he hurt and he-

    Wilbur broke, he sobbed, he screamed, “Tommy,” and there was blood on his hands, “wake up, wake up-!“

    Tubbo hugged the body ever tighter.

    -

    Or: Tommy was dead, but Wilbur was alive, and living didn’t seem to be all that worth it at all when his little brother was gone.

    Loss brings people together, however — Tubbo and Ranboo were adamant that they needed to keep him alive, if only for a chance at healing and redemption. So Wilbur tried his best; he learnt to live, for Tommy, and one day maybe he’d even learn to live for himself.

    Meanwhile, he might or might not be haunted by Tommy’s ghost.

    Summary

    tubbo was afraid of many things. he was afraid of the tremor of fireworks, the sound of thunder, resounding voices, broken beer bottles, one block wide towers, wasted time, night terrors.

    but at this very moment, where the moon shone over him and his husband, who so carefully cradled him when he knew they were tired of waking up to an empty bed, tubbo realized he was afraid of being loved.

    and with that realization, he let his tears free fall, dripping down his face and he tried (and failed) to keep his hiccuping down.

    of course, ranboo noticed.

     

    (tubbo is awake, and it’s a spring super moon. his husband loves him, and he doesn’t know how to cope with that knowledge.)

    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
