    Summary

    Now, Techno had two options. He could roll down the window and see what the kid wanted, or he could unpark the car and drive home where he didn’t have to deal with anybody. The latter was favorable, but the former was probably the option he should go with. He was not at all in the mood to talk to people, his head was pounding and the world was shaking beneath his feet. Talking to some random kid he didn’t know was the very last on his to-do list at the moment. With a sigh, Techno rolled his window down and sent the kid the most annoyed glare that he could muster.

    “Do you need something?” Techno asked. He was so tired, sick of the suit he was wearing, and he wanted to go home.

    “Hi, uh, sorry for, like, chasing you down, but I noticed you were leaving before I got a chance to speak to you.” The boy spoke quickly, only pausing to take a shaky breath in. “You knew Wil, right?”

    No. He was just at Wilbur Soot’s funeral but he had never met the guy. It was a pastime of his, to crash funerals.

    Summary

    "What's his name?" Wilbur asked because of course he asked, because he was himself, absolutely unable to sense that very serious negotiations were taking place right next to him. Techno was eager to kick him for it.

    Phil, on the other hand, smiled broadly.

    "Tommy," he said, and oh, Techno didn't like that tone a lot, that note of affection, as if by some miracle he had already attached himself to the baby before he saw it in front of his eyes. It couldn't be worse. "He's six."

    Ah. So it was worse.

     

    Or;

    Techno never wanted another brother.
    And he's about to make it everyone's problem.

    Summary

    Once the villain has finished with his wounds and has bandaged them, they both sit in a silence not awkward, but not a normal one either.

    "Why did you-" Tommy gulps, nervous he's overstepping some line. "Why did you save me? Because, don't take this personally but- you're a villain, you know? And, uh, you really didn't need to, like, at all, so I just- I don't know."

    Tommy expects (well, he expects him to be mad, to shout at him and he wouldn't even be surprised if he decided to hurt him) something, the other just stares at him, his mask makes him even more nervous because it hides whatever the villain could be feeling right in that moment.

    "You needed to be saved." It feels like a confession of sorts, for who? Tommy doesn't know. "And don't take this personally," he parrots, tilting his head with an air of gentility, "but you're just a kid."

    -

    Or; the one about learning how to be loved, and healing.

    (Or, or, Tommy is saved by one of the most feared villains in town, after that, it's like every goddamn villain, hero and vigilante in existence won't leave him alone.)

    Summary

    Philza struggled to keep standing straight, dizzy from blood loss, a white-knuckle grip on his sword.

    “I have heard much of you, emperor Philza, and I have respect for you. Therefore, I’ll offer you a deal. You will surrender. You will kneel before me, right here, right now, and beg for mercy. Then I’ll take you to the Nether with me, and you’ll become my prisoner, slave, and personal servant. Or-

    The Blood God raised his netherite blade, pointing the tip straight at Philza’s heart.

    “-I will allow you to die with a sword in your hand, and once you’re dead, I will slaughter your children.”

    Philza fell to his knees without hesitation.

    ~~~

    Philza had been prepared for a lot of things when he was taken as a war prize: the loss of his basic freedom, the heartbreak of being separated from his sons, the indignity of being reduced into the piglin king’s “pet”.

    What he hadn’t been expecting was for the man behind the blood-stained mask to be soft-spoken, or good-natured, or tired from the weight of his crown.

    Or lonely.

    Summary

    Tommy dies, and then he wakes up staring at a young piglin hybrid who looks uncomfortably familiar. And he's in the Nether. Wait, what did the kid say his name was? Okay, so he's in the past. That explains it.

    Like hell it does! What is he supposed to do now?!

    OR

    Tommy is The Adult and Techno is Very Curious about this random werido. Shenanigans and fluff ensue.
