    Summary

    “Something has been stolen from us,” Thanatos said, his wings puffing up as he spoke. “Something that is very important to us. And we are fairly certain that the person who stole this thing of ours is in this very crowd.”

    Dream tensed beside Tommy as the crowd broke out into murmurs. Eyes were darting towards the different heroes in the crowd, the benefactors no doubt assuming that the culprit had to be a hero.

    “Like we said, we haven’t crashed your party to cause trouble. But we want this thing returned to us, and we won’t hesitate to take extreme measures to get what we want.”

    or, Tommy was a lot of things: a newly debuted hero sidekick, an amnesiac, and a former kidnapping victim of the Syndicate.

    Tommy didn't actually remember that last one though. That was just what Dream told him.

    Only weeks after his hero debut, the Syndicate announces they are searching for something, and Tommy knows it has to be him. The scariest part? If they find him, Tommy will have no clue what to expect, because the Syndicate might know him, but he has no memories of them.

    So he can't let them find him. No matter what.

    Of course they end up finding him anyway.

    Summary

    “W-What do you- I mean can I- are you here to rob us?” The person managed to stammer out.

    Siren snorted. “No. I’m just here to order some food.”

    “Wh-What about him?” The cashier asked, glancing at Tommy. “Did you- did you kidnap him?”

    “I mean… yeah, let’s go with that in case this ends up on the news,” Siren shrugged, looking back at Tommy. “I kidnapped you, right?”

    “Yeah, sure,” Tommy agreed, knowing that if they said he was kidnapped, it would keep people from getting suspicious of why he was seen in public with Siren. “Anyway, can I get the chicken nuggets happy meal, with a coke?”

    or, how Tommy—who is not a hero, or a villain, or even a vigilante—saves the life of one of L'Manberg's most feared supervillains, and accidentally ends up becoming the resident doctor for every supervillain in town (and maybe gets a family along the way too).

    Summary

    In a world of soulmates, Bruce Wayne is born without any marks on his body. He gets used to the idea of being alone.

    Until his soul marks start showing up.

    How the hell does he have so many kids?!

    ---

    Bruce curses, running a hand back through his hair. This isn’t… No. He isn’t supposed to have a soulmate. He is the Dark Knight, for crying out loud.

    “Don’t tell him,” Bruce orders.

    Alfred blinks. “Why not? You’ve found one of your soulmates. This is cause for celebration-”

    “The Wayne family is a family of choice. He shouldn’t feel like he has to stay just because we’re…" Bruce stumbles. "And besides. He’s going to expect me to be some…some overly-doting-parent type and I can’t do that. There’s so much…so much about being someone’s soulmate. You’re supposed to be this…this…perfect person. You’re supposed to complete someone else. How the hell am I supposed to do that?”

    Summary

    The last thing Peter sees is Tony's horrified, heartbroken expression leaning over him. The guilt in his eyes is almost worse than the burning pain that's taking Peter apart piece by piece. The world starts to go dark.

    There's a flash of gold and green. For one moment, he finds himself standing amongst the Guardians and others. And then darkness again. It feels like blinking; an extended period of nothingness that ends as abruptly as it begins. One moment there’s nothing, the next there’s light.

    “Easy,” a woman says. Her words are gentle, and carry a slight accent that he can’t place. "I'm called Wonder Woman. What's your name?"

    Summary

    All the stories warn against going into the woods, warn about creatures hiding there. They say there are lilting voices singing from the shadows, promising glittering daydreams with sharp teeth. They say the creatures there will take you far away to never be seen again.

    There was a boy, the village whisperers, safely in the circle of light, glancing over their shoulders at the trees beyond it. There was a boy who strayed too far.

    They say you can still hear his laughter as it’s carried on a breeze, bright and wild, like youth frozen in amber, like ghosts falling delicate from the branches.

    (Strange things happen to boys who linger too long beyond the veil. Magic infects like a disease, like rot, eating away everything human that lingers, until his eyes are an unbroken summer sky blue and there are flowers in his hair and he sings with a voice that haunts the shadows.)

    (Here is our story: A boy goes home.)

    Summary

    “Alright, fine.” Technoblade shoved his hands into his suit pockets. “They don’t care. Now, here’s what can happen next. I do believe you are Theseus. So you can come with me, and we can actually put your theory to the test.”

    “It’s not a theory. It’s just the truth, okay?” Tommy was horrified to feel tears burn up in his eyes. “I know I’m right about this.”

    “Why do you even want to go back, then?” Technoblade asked, “I’m sure Sam won’t mind letting you stay here until for whatever reason the royal family comes over.”

    The lump in Tommy’s throat was expanding, and he forcefully swallowed it down.

    “I… I want to see them,” he admitted.

    “There are photos, newsfeeds—”

    “It’s not the same!” Tommy stared at his nicely polished shoes, shame burning at his cheeks for his outburst. “It’s not the same,” he said again, more quietly.

     

    Prince Theseus was kidnapped from his home at age nine. Now, at fourteen years old, he reunites with his family, even though he believes they hate him.

    Summary

    Techno was adopted by Phil when he was 12 years old.

    He'd been enjoying his morning before Phil came to him asking if he would mind them taking in another kid. Against his better judgement, Techno agrees and ends up with two new foster brothers who he was determined to not get attached to, no matter what.

    Summary

    There was always an explanation to everything in this world and it was usually the most boring one; those Sailing Stones of Death Valley turned out to literally be ice. The Bermuda Triangle was simply miscounts and human error and the Nazca Lines were just some stakes and rope. And yet, Penny Parker had been alive for fifteen years and she still hadn’t figured out what the hell was wrong with her. The working theories were:
    1) Dropped as a baby

    2) God just really hates her

    Summary

    Death has followed Tommy ever since he was a child.

    After spending years being trained to be a ruthless killer, Tommy works as an assassin, killing targets without mercy or hesitance. After all, death is a much kinder fate then struggling to survive in l'Manberg's failing economy.

    Most of the time, they deserve it. Tommy kills those who hurt others, those who swindle and cheat and kill. He ignores the irony in this.

    Tommy has performed exactly 352 jobs, all of which successful. No matter who the target is, no matter the morality of it, he kills quickly, calculated, like he was trained to do.

    This all changes when he accepts a job with Prince Technoblade as his target.

    Summary

    A phrase the Blaze Empress had told him weeks ago lingers in his head as he walks – ‘You will not fight our battles, Philza’.

    “Fine,” he mutters to himself, pulling back, “If I can’t fight your battles for you, I’ll make it my battle too.”

    Summary

    Technoblade told Phil once that he likened him to an angel, and Phil had laughed in his face, the sound of it ringing like church bells.

    “Techno, mate,” he’d giggled, “I get I have the wings ‘nd all – “and what a sight they were, brilliant crows wings as black as the void, iridescent against moonlight “- but I’m not an angel, I’m just some guy.”

    Technoblade had decided then that he’d work to prove Phil wrong, would work to make him angelic, even if it meant pulling down a halo from the heavens and placing it upon Phil’s head himself.
    -
    Technoblade does not believe he is worthy of being treated like a human, and Philza does not believe he is the angel that Techno claims he is. They both work to prove each other wrong.

    Summary

    This can’t be happening.

    The ring didn’t fit him less than a minute ago, and now it’s stuck. It’s stuck and Tommy’s wearing a big ‘I stole something and I'm a fucking idiot’ sign on his hand. Forget the guards, it’s expensive enough that if someone sees him wearing it he’s dead. He doubts many people would stop at just trying to pull it off of him.

    He pinches himself. It hurts. This is not a nightmare. Not in the literal sense at least- it’s definitely a metaphorical nightmare. Tommy’s worst nightmare, specifically.

    This is the worst day.

    In which Tommy is a street kid, SBI are the royal family. And there's magic.

    Summary

    “Kid! You better getcha ass over here!” The bear hybrid shouts, arms pumping and feet thundering down the street.
    Tommy turns down the street into a mostly empty lane, lined with less popular shops and restaurants that weren’t open yet. He huffs and puffs as the man gains on him, tail whipping around, trying to keep his balance.
    “Yknow, this isn’t very poggers.” He mumbles to himself. His ears twitch as the sound of door hinges sounds from in front of him. His eyes snap forward.
    A man wearing a striped green sweater vest walks out of a shop, black wings extended wide. Right into Tommy’s way.
    “FUCK!” Tommy shouts out loud. To be fair, he meant to say move, but his brain had been scrambled just a bit. The bird hybrid looks up in alarm, hands that were wrapped around small paper bags suddenly reaching out, as if to catch Tommy. The boy screeches to stop, inches away from the bird hybrid’s chest.
    --------
    in which Tommy passes out in front of Philza, who decides it's time to adopt a new son. Wilbur and Techno agree wholeheartedly. Tommy, however, is a stubborn and chaotic asshole.

    Summary

    Tommy was one of the few kids in the system who didn’t seem to want help, angry at the world and at almost everyone in it. He was also Sam’s favourite, although the creeper hybrid would never admit that – it happened when you worked with a kid for nine years consistently. It could cost him his job if he were known to show favouritism, and Tommy’s ego was inflated enough as it was anyway.

    Summary

    The Multiplayers are a faceless band that the internet has gone wild about. They started by playing covers and posting them on YouTube but now they’ve got a slew of original songs and one hell of a fanbase.

    Tubbo, Ranboo, and Tommy started the band as a joke after a stream one day because “oh, haha, we all play instruments!” but now people actually like their songs… not that anybody actually knows the songs are theirs.

    Summary

    "That was Floaty. Or at least, that's what I'm calling him. Fucking kid won't tell us his name," Dream carried on like nothing had happened, and from beside Techno, Wilbur started wheezing like he was dying. "I think he's twelve or thirteen. Wind magic, he's quick and real snarky, very malnourished, blind-"

    "Wait, blind?" Techno peered harder at the communicator. Wilbur stopped laughing. "How the hell is he able to slip by you then?"

    "Uses the air currents like feelers, I think," Dream's breath was coming heavier as he carried on running. "Gets an idea of where things are in relation to him. He doesn't always get it right, sometimes there are cracks in things big enough to feel like an escape route and he slams into a wall. Or he doesn't angle close enough to the ground and trips on things. He's uh-" Dream flipped the communicator around, and Techno blinked as Bad flew through the air, screeching the whole way. "He's slippery."

    ---

    TLDR: Blindinnit has wind magic and gets himself adopted by the Antarctic Empire's royal family.
