"I prefer the genre where you didn't exist" (chatfic)

Summary:

americangoat: oh you think you have it bad??

well i mean his presentations are phemonanal, but still
 

Bee: WE DIDNT HSVE THID IN THE 1600s DO YOU KNPW HOW HELPFUL THIS WOULDVE BDEN??

==OR==

An MCYT AU where the MCYT are main characters from different book genres (universes), and all live in one house. It goes as well as you think it does.

The obligatory chat fic I wrote. And plus you're not a fanfic writer if you haven't written at least one chatfic. But also the chatfic also has actual writing on the side since I love torturing myself.

Psycho Arsonist: define "busy"

The Blade: Busy, adjective, having a great deal to do. ex. "I'm busy hiding the bodies."

Father Detective: Mate, please just get back to the house fast

Or just take the damn car, I can't always pick you up 20 miles out in the middle of nowhere because you decided that burying the body in our backyard is too obvious

The Blade: I mean. I can move it all to the table.


Father Detective: And get our new table stained? I think not

 

Notes:

The first chapter was pretty good, so I just edited and added some new scenes and edited other things! But its heeerrrreeee!!

N e way, the original fic is copy and pasted on a new fic. you can find it in the series this fic is in once I post it.

But anyway, if you're new, welcome to the rewrite of this fic! (It's a bit tough writing about 22 characters but it's fine.) Anyway, if you didn't know, we have a thing where people can comment incorrect quotes in the comment section! These incorrect quotes will be featured right here, in the endnotes! There's also a chance of me being inspired by them and writing a chapter about it!

But anyway, hope you enjoy!
-Jam

Chapter 3: "you're not my dad"

Notes:

sorry if this all seems like a repeat. because most of it, is just a repeat, with me editing them, adding some other characters, and etc.

this will continue for the introduction a bit, but the rest will be brand new content (idk how well my humor has aged but we'll see how far we'll go!)

but tubbo being a menace to society scene? yeah, that's new.

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Mary Sue Teletubby Edition: yes dear? 


sleepingbeautyangst: don't fucking call me that. but where the hell are you?

Bee: you guys are about to fuck arent you?


sleepingbeautyangst: tubbo please, go back to sleep. i'll take you to the flower fields if you do.


Bee: you strike a hard bargain.

deal.


sleepingbeautyangst: back to what i was saying

Clay, I know your genre is "Action & Adventure" 

but can you PLEASE stop luring random-ass criminals into the living room to fight them?

my universe is a Dystopia, BUT DO YOU SEE ME TRYING TO SET UP OVERCONTROLLING GOVERNMENTS??


Mary Sue Teletubby Edition: but it makes the fight scenes way more interesting ):


sleepingbeautyangst: CLAY

PLEASE

I AM TIRED OF WAKING UP IN THE AFTERNOON TO FIND THE COFFEE TABLE BROKEN YET AGAIN

I'M NOT PLACING MY FUCKING COFFEE ON THE GROUND OR WORSE THE COUCH


Mary Sue Teletubby Edition: but


sleepingbeautyangst: you bring me no choice

if you keep up with this i'm going to put you on the chore duty of cleaning up the blood in the house for a week


Mary Sue Teletubby Edition: OKAY THAT'S A BIT UNFAIR

WE BOTH KNOW HOW MUCH BLOOD TECHNO, BOFFY, AND ALL THE OTHER FUCKS DRAG INTO THE HOUSE. TECHNO ESPECIALLY WITH HIS WEIRD-ASS HOBBY


sleepingbeautyangst: ok fair, but you should help out fundy on that chore. it's only been one week but I think he's going insane

anyway, fine

if you stop fucking bringing strangers into the house to fight them, I'll wear that damn hoodie you wanted me to wear

Mary Sue Teletubby Edition: SAY NO MORE SENORITA-


sleepingbeautyangst: call me that again and we'll have some problems

quack: ranboo


memory is false: hm?


quack: don't play dumb with ME


memory is false: but its the only way you can understand


americangoat: BURNNNN


Arson is Magic: ouch, i think i burned myself on that ROAST


quack: fuck off, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DID RANBOO


memory is false: idk man, i'm pretty forgetful


quack: YOU MOVED ALL MY THINGS A BIT TO THE LEFT SO I WOULD CRASH INTO EVERYTHING, WITH YOUR WEIRD ASS POWERS


Psycho Arsonist: LOL


Cow Hater: seems like your fault my dude


quack: don't make me get the water gun


memory is false: you wouldn't dare, bitch


Muffin: AHHH, LANGUAGE!!


quack: oh yes I would you damn lanky ass motherfucker


memory is false: fine, i'm calling techno then

@The Blade


quack: WAIT RANBOO PLEASE CAN WE TALK THIS OUT HAHAHA LOL??

MY DUDDDE, MY BROOOSKI


The Blade: Who pinged me. I was doing this very important thing called sleeping.


memory is false: dad, alex threatened to use the water gun on me


The Blade: Don't call me "Dad" ever again. But where is Alex?


memory is false: ...father


The Blade: And don't play smart with me or I'll take the dishwasher away.


memory is false: NOOOOOOOOOO

bi king: we very much need the dishwasher


crumbtoast: yes yes!

please don't take it away

we won't have clean dishes D:


americangoat: @The Blade not to be a snitch, but the second hall, take a right. he should be in sapnap's room hiding in the closet.


Furry Tale: metaphorically or literally


Psycho Arsonist: tf?? how did you know

Arson is Magic: WAIT NOT MY TWELVE PAIRS OF HEADBANDS

americangoat: @Psycho Arsonist well 1 i'm sitting next to philza minecraft

and 2, we both know that in any mystery story, the main character detective has the ability to know a person's life story just by the color of their hair


The Blade: Why didn't my father say anything to me that mentioned the topic of Alex's location?


Father Detective: I don't like cleaning up blood that has stained the carpet


The Blade: And what makes you think I'd do anything that creates this liquid called blood?


Father Detective: MATE, YOU'RE THE LITERAL MAIN KILLER FROM A UNIVERSE THAT'S BASICALLY A HORROR GENRE


The Blade: I don't appreciate you calling my people a "Horror" genre. To them, this is a tradition to kill and sacrifice people to the Blood God. To them, you guys being peaceful is "violence" in our world. And violence is "peace" in our world.

But you do have a point.


quack: before i die

tell schlatt hANOD{UBHFNwtjl;ekyrihjndfu


americangoat: DAMN IT, NOW WE'LL NEVER KNOW WHAT HE SAID


Psycho Arsonist: OMFG, TO HELL WITH ALEX, NIKI IS VISITING FROM LAKE SAWTOOTH EVERGREEn-


bi king: upote upvote


Furry Tale: not be offensive, but isn't she half fish?? how is she going to visit us??


Psycho Arsonist: quiet furry, your mother is a fish as well and she still gave birth to you


Furry Tale: ITS A FUCKING FABLE FOR A REASON WILL


Psycho Arsonist: but anyway, i'll let niki do the talking

@Nihachu


Nihachu: will built me a canal from the lake to your guy's pools :D


Mary Sue Teletubby Edition: first, pog, second, WHY DID NOBODY TELL ME??? AREN'T I THE OWNER OF THIS HOUSE?? :headinhands:


Bee: you might be the owner but you sure will never be able to stop me from making our roof a garden


Mary Sue Teletubby Edition: tubbo, the sunshine yet menace of all our days, please get away from the fucking ladder.


Bee: you're not my dad

americangoat: CAUSE I AM

AND I APPROVE OF HIS ACTIONS

 


 

"Get off the fucking roof you little shit!"


"No, I have the higher ground...bitch!"


"If you don't get off the roof this instant I'm putting you in the time-out cabinet!"


Tubbo simply glanced away, not bothering to respond this time around as he gently kicked away the ladder from the edge of the roof, watching it wobble with a strange type of glee in his eyes. But fortunately, the ladder eventually fell back, hitting the roof edge with a muted thud. The brunet continued to tease the others down below this way, ignoring the dozens of curses thrown at him.


"If you push it off you won't be able to get down!!" Ranboo followed up, cupping his hands around his mouth to project his voice. But he seemed to be failing, the cause probably being his rather soft-spoken nature


Tubbo snorted, waving his hand dismissively. "Who needs a latter? I'll just jump off!"


"DO A BACKFLIP!"


Ah yes. Good ol' Tommy.


"YOU GOT IT CHIEF!" Tubbo yelled back, the brunet crouching down as he slowly shuffled away from the edge, his muscles tensing up as he readied to jump. Springing out into the open air, he was just about prepared to watch himself plummet to the ground before he suddenly paused in mid-air.


He heard the sounds of feet shuffling as the perpetrator who stopped him tried to balance themselves. "Oh, nonononono-" 


Tubbo whined, nearly like a goat as he kicked his legs out, watching helplessly at the ground below. It seemed that he was being held by the armpits, similarly to a cat too much of the brunet's disgust.


"Let me go!"


"No!"


Oh. It was Ranboo. Taking a peek at the place the other male just was, Tubbo grimaced at the lingering purple particles in the air. Bitch must've teleported.


Pausing for a moment, the brunet shrugged before swaying his body back and forth slowly, kicking the taller's knees, as Tubbo was just that short. Listening to the sweet sound of his friend yelp out in pain, the mage slipped off the roof, causing the duo to fall.

 



Phil sneezed. The man looked like he was in a daze, glancing up at the person who sat across from him.


"Where do you think everyone went?" He pondered out loud.


Schlatt smiled, simply looking up from his deck of cards that was fanned out perfectly in his hand.


"Oh, I don't know."

sleepingbeautyangst: why are you doing a selfie with your kidnapper?


Psycho Arsonist: well, he cant really do anything to me since im like half ghost


sleepingbeautyangst: so then how did you get kidnapped in the first place???

Psycho Arsonist: HE WAS OFFERING FREE CANDY

crumbtoast: wait you fucked a fridge philza minecraft?

Father Detective: I did NOT fuck a fridge

But, dropping the subject, can you please just phase through the car and get out of there?


Psycho Arsonist: i can only do that on tuesdays.


sleepingbeautyangst: i...i'll never get your half-ghost powers

Psycho Arsonist: well people can't touch me. i'm ghosty visible, but i can't phase through walls (well i can but only tuesdays). 


sleepingbeautyangst: only walls?


Psycho Arsonist: well i cant phase through non-organic material. i can phase through living and organic material though


Father Detective: Look that's nice and all, BUT CAN WE FOCUS ON THE FACT THAT WILL IS CURRENTLY KIDNAPPED??


sleepingbeautyangst: idk man, i kinda wanna know more about his powers


Psycho Arsonist: wanna trade info?


sleepingbeautyangst: seems pog with me


Father Detective: ...

Forget this, I'm gonna go get ranboo to teleport Will out of there


Ranboo tried to stifle his yawn as best as he could, the boy's peculiar red and green eyes gazing at Phil with a slight annoyance dancing in the depths of them. The older glanced away every so often, afraid of triggering the teen's...'instincts', for lack of better words.

The mage looked like an owl in the darkness, nothing but a silhouette with intelligent eyes against the silver beams of light that managed to sneak in through the cracks of the blinds. Even if the detective couldn't see the boy's expression, just his eyes and tone of voice were enough for Phil to guess how annoyed the other was despite Ranboo's usual nervousness.

"Say what...?" Ranboo grunted drowsily, the older painting a picture in his head of the boy raising his eyebrow in the darkness.

Phil sighed, looking down at the floor tiredly. "I need you to teleport to Will because you're the only one available who can...fetch him."

"...and what do I get in return?" 

"How about if you don't," Phil countered, the older straightening his posture a bit more, giving him an imposing look. "...I'll put you on cleaning duty."

Ranboo instantly rolled over, slipping out of his blankets sluggishly yet at the same time hurriedly. "Fine! Fine."

"There we go. Be quick now," Phil huffed as he walked out of Ranboo's bedroom. The mage blinked at the receding figure of the older, pausing as he let out one more yawn before teleporting away with a flurry of purple particles.



Ranboo blinked sleepily as he took in his surroundings, jolting abruptly and nearly faceplanting into the back of the driver's seat from a road bump. The boy seemed to be in the backseat of a moving van, causing him to let out a small sigh. Shaking his head, he finally noticed the tied-up Wilbur who was texting on his phone casually.

"Oh! Ranboo, how are you doing?" the male said cheerfully. As if he wasn't tied up in a white van about to get—actually, correction, had already got kidnapped.

"Shitty," the mage grunted, grabbing the ropes that were tied around Will (since he couldn't really touch the male...). "Let's just get out of here, I need my beauty rest."

He froze.


Feeling a bit lost, he suddenly had the urge to turn to the driver's seat of the van, feeling a pair of eyes bore into his head. Will looked at the boy curiously, watching the younger slowly look up and—

...Lock eyes with the man who was driving the said van.

Five.

Ranboo was unable to move, confusion wrapping around his every thought as he simply stared at the other.

Four. 

The driver couldn't peel his eyes away, gawking as he stared at the intruder who had, literally, magically appeared.

Three. 

Staring back with just as much intensity, a strange, feeling, of sorts, slowly crept up the mage's spine.

Two.

The man opened his mouth to say something.

On—

【 'D on't.  Clo se  yo u r  ey e s .' 】

Ranboo's eyes dilated like a cat's, a sudden hiss rising up in his


【 'No . ' 】


...


As a sense of deja vu blanketed every being of him, the boy quickly snapped his eyes shut, willing himself to teleport away as he heard Will suddenly bark out in surprise.

"I SAID TURN RIGHT!" Wilbur suddenly yelled, his voice somehow projecting over everyone else's screaming. Schlatt only gave a halfhearted shrug before spinning the steering wheel abruptly, causing the vehicle to give a violent swerve off the highway.


Sapnap, who was currently peering out of the car window to flip off the police car that was, well, quite persistently trailing the group, nearly was flung out from the sudden action as he was rubber banded back into his seat.


The male cursed before he kicked open the car door as he grabbed the nearest person and threw them out as a....sacrifice.


Such a shame that person might've been Quackity.


Slamming the car door behind the other, Sapnap shrugged as the rest of the group that was crammed into the van fell back into another torrent of screaming.

"WE LOST QUACKITY-"


"You mean the only one who didn't matter."


"NO MAN LEFT BEHIND!!!"


"I DON'T WANT TO GO TO JAIL, I'M TOO YOUNG AND PRETTYYYY"


The truck suddenly gave another jolt, Sapnap nearly being thrust into someone else as he let out a few strongly worded cries. But other than that, he could suddenly hear the muffled sobbing of the unfortunate person who was left to be stuffed in the trunk of the car.


Whoops.

that moment when you get lost in a forest and elope with smokey the bear

anyway, announcement.

chapters that are more angsty or have more serious stuff will be separated from the story, and will be marked in the chapter title with: ✿. these chapters are free to skip, and if you do skip them it won't hinder anything you know about the fic or your reading experience. think of them like really bittersweet bonus chapters. these chapters will have warnings, and generally, be darker.

i have fun writing more angsty things, but don't want to taint this comedy fic, so now we have a compromise!

Chapter 7: Partially (✿)

Notes:

//TW Derealization (kinda?)

once again, the ✿ symbols are moments that are kind of a side, more angstier plotline of this story for those who want to read it. for those who don't want to read this and only want to read the comedy bits of this fic, please feel free to skip these moments. it won't hinder your experience at all, i promise. you can read simply the regular bits witch are signals by their usual line!

Chapter Text

(✿)

Ranboo couldn't help but fret over something that was so...minuscule as he stared at the mess of papers and writing, scattered around him like snow. His lanky frame was currently pushed between the wall and the couch, his height causing him to pull his knees to his chest as his heterochromia eyes glanced between notebook entrees. The teen looked nearly desperate as he silently whispered to himself, trying to bring about a calm that currently wasn't available to him.


He should be happy that he and Wil got out of the car alive— ecstatic, even. But he knew this wasn't right.


The mage might've been forgetful, but he sure as hell knew that something was off. That this...situation had happened before. This whole thing was just a repeat, set as a broken record to continue on and on. And Ranboo was just another one of the faceless characters that would be swept up with each repeat, fixed to be a pawn to advance this, story, of some sort.


But there was a part of his existence that told him that he and Wilbur should've gotten into more trouble than they intended to. Ranboo wasn't supposed to be okay, instead, he should've been standing here anxious about another thing. Anxious that he killed someone instead.

The mage's fingers flexed experimentally, Ranboo trying to imagine how they would look with crimson blood spread about them. Red tucked under his fingernails.


It was strange to think about. Even though he knew that there was, of course, different universes (if there wasn't, then how would he even be here at all?), it never occurred to him that even the original universe he was in now—the one where he was just a regular person who didn't even know magic—could be under the effect of a higher being. Contorted and manipulated to fit some person's twisted needs.


He felt a headache come on as he bit his inner lip, trying to recite from his memory what would happen next in the weird script of his. 


I—Techno would come downstairs for towels, but then he would hear my muttering. And then...he would comfort me. It would be a bonding moment, kinda, meant to establish me and his relationship early in the story.


Shaking his head clear, the teen slowly stood up. His green and red eyes glinted with a new emotion; determination, as he heard the crinkle of paper from him stepping on one of his notebook entries.


He didn't know what was happening here, but the mage would get down to the bottom of this, no matter what. He needed to know why he had all these memories—experiences, even, of him doing all of this before. Playing the script of a nervous wreck of a character.

Arson is Magic: theres no smoke detectors in this house lmao


Father Detective: THERE'S NO WHAT?????


alien-and-a-half: ah

alien-and-a-half: that's why it feels warmer in here

 



Ranboo stuck to the shadows as he watched the intimidating figure of Techno walk past him, the teen barely sparing a glance as he quickly made his way up the stairs, his footsteps left up to the silence to imagine a sound. The mage wore a slight frown as he ignored the yells of 'FIRE' and 'you BITCH' screamed out into the hallways, Ranboo using the chaos to his advantage as he silently entered Techno's room. A giant 'keep out' sign written in blood on the door.


The mage felt himself wondering why he had chosen the murderer's room to look for answers, only for his mind to go back to the simple thought of...well, Techno always seemed to know things.


Despite the room housing a murderer, it was actually pretty normal. The only thing remotely dirty about it, surprisingly, was the many books scattered across the floor. Some stacked up in large piles and tucked into corners, while others lay open with random notes and annotations marking the open pages. But, without the books, it would've looked like a regular room that nobody lived in. As the only thing decorating the place was a picture frame hanging on the wall with a group photo of all the housemates. With also a tinge of suspiciousness to go along with it, as the windows of the room were bordered up completely, not letting one single ray of sunshine in.


Must be a habit of Techno's.


The teen shook his head, reminding himself what his goal was as he immediately went to the first thing that caught his attention; the desk propped up next to the wall. By far, it was the messiest, with papers and books splayed across the surface carelessly. But, what caught Ranboo's eyes the most had to be the journal that sat on the messy pile. It was purple, pages a slight tinge of tan to signify its increasing age. It seemed to be the only thing that was taken care of at all.


Raising an eyebrow, the mage quickly glanced over his shoulder to confirm no one was looking before he cracked open the book.


A simple line of text suddenly appeared in black ink, as if an invisible pen was slowly writing on the page Ranboo had opened to. Suddenly, more lines of text started to be scribbled across the page, some in the margins, others simply carelessly written and clashing with other lines. But they all had different handwriting, the mage able to tell that each one of them was not written by the same person.


[IT'S BACK IT'S BACK HOLY SHIT THE GENRE CHATFIC IS BACK!!!]


[THE CHATFIC IS COMING BACK, THE THING THAT STARTED IT ALL!]


He stumbled back. Startled and confused.

Notes:

green bastard: what? no

giant sleepover/cuddle pile in the living room obviously

 



Ranboo felt a sliver of amusement as he watched the sleeping forms of his friends, the teen gentle tapping his pen against the open page of the purple journal. He watched from the kitchen counter with drowsy eyes.


The group of guys had all piled into the living room, blankets and pillows strewn about to make the ground comfier to sleep on. Shaking snores emitted from a few of them, but for the most part, the scene was pretty tranquil and silent. The mage had known that none of them would keep up their end of the deal, and so he had decided to be the one to watch over the group and the stranger for the night.


Besides, he needed an excuse to stay awake. He had to figure out this damn journal, even if it was the end of him. Turning his attention back to the empty pages of the journal, he glared at the book.


Ever since he had first opened the journal, no lines of text had appeared, and it was aggravating.


He muttered something under his breath. But, the teen perked up as words slowly started to appear on the empty page of the book. Ranboo almost knocking over the chair he sat in as he stared at the line of text with wide eyes.


[Eyyyy! Memory boi returns! Hey, Ranboo, do you want to hear about Pandora's Box? The prison, not the myth]


Well. That sure wasn't expected, but at least it was...something.


The mage paused, reading over the line a few times before raising an eyebrow in confusion. He didn't want to think too long about how the journal knew his name, and how, well...nonchalant most of the text seemed to come off as. But the teen sighed.


"Sure. As long as it's important," he said softly, trying to be wary of waking the others up.


But, before he had a chance to feel disappointed, a new line of text slowly etched itself into the notebook page, the color of ink a deep cyan color.


[Do you even remember what you were before coming here, ⍀⏃⋏⏚⍜⍜?]


He bit his inner cheek as he frowned, a bit unsure. "I mean, if you're asking about the original world that's currently being repeated right now...no, I don't. It's...pretty fuzzy. Did something happen or go wrong? I..." The teen trailed off for a moment, a weird look in his eyes as he shook his head. "But if you're asking about my homeworld, or the 'fantasy genre,' as everyone calls it, I know before I came to this...weird universe, I was a mage. And I..."


...


Fuck.


Ranboo couldn't remember.


But he was immediately yanked from his thoughts as the sound of the stairs creaking alerted the mage of a person coming downstairs. Quickly, he closed the journal before darting behind the kitchen counter so no one could see him. Ranboo's heart hammered against his chest as he squeezed his eyes shut, trying to find comfort from the feeling of the leather spine of the book.


Please don't be Techno, anyone but Techno.

Chapter Text

The journal seemed to have a will of its own as it kept shivering, only aiding Ranboo's growing confusion as he clamped a hand over his mouth to muffle any noises that might come out. It didn't take long for the journal to suddenly spring open despite his best efforts to keep it shut, the teen letting out a muffled curse. 


Ranboo's dwindling hope had reached rock-bottom about now, the noise of the pages flipping to where he had left off rather loud in the silence. Murmuring silent prayers under his breath, he tried to force the journal shut again—albeit, failing miserably. As the journal finally reached the page where he had left off, multiple new lines started appearing on the white pages. Each had its own color and handwriting style, of course.


[I HOPE IT’S TECHNO] 


[HEY MEMORY BOY! JUST WANNA LET YOU KNOW YOUR COUNTERPART FROM A DIFFERENT TIMELINE IS DEAD RN SOOOOOOOOOO RIP IG? THATS ALL I WANTED TO SAY CYA]


[NUKES, ARSON, MURDER!]


The new lines didn't help his growing confusion at all as he finally managed to close the unwilling journal by hugging it to his chest forcefully. Ranboo only left with the sound of his slightly heavy breathing and a still trembling journal.


"What are you doing?"


He froze.


Before Ranboo was a lean male, the other crouched down in front of him with his usual listless gaze. Crimson eyes were as sharp as ever—if it was because that was just how they were or for another reason, Ranboo didn't know. From the messiness of Techno's long pink hair, he could easily conclude that the other had just woken up, or something along the line of that.


"Uh...uh, what?" Ranboo managed to stammer out as he pressed himself closer to the side of the counter, afraid of Techno striking out at him.


Fortunately, the other didn't, and instead simply pointed an index figure at him. "What are you doing here—ya'know, sitting on the floor with my journal? Is...something wrong?"


"No! Um...no, not at all. I just..."


"Relax, Rainbow," Techno sighed. He reached out and grabbed the journal, Ranboo flinching as he loosed his grip on it and let it slip out of his arms. "I already know you took it from my room."


Ranboo stared with wide eyes, mostly from this new piece of information. But also from how the journal stilled in Techno's hands.


"How did you know I..."


Techno raised an eyebrow. "I mean, I watched you do it?"


The younger didn't question the other any further. He really did not want to know any more than that.


"So you're not...angry at me?"


"No, I guess," Techno said, opening the journal as he slowly flipped to a certain page in the book. Slowly, he turned the book to show the page to Ranboo. "I found this thing in my home universe. It came with me here. But, it's pretty worthless anyway, cuz," he huffed, "you can't really write in it. And all it does is keep showing this to me."


Ranboo's mouth opened to say something before he closed it, staring at the book with growing confusion and fear as the same phrase kept appearing over the pages. Written hastily in big letters, the handwriting was in all capitals and had a scratchy look to it, the color varying from shades of red and black. Repeated over and over, all that seemed to be written was 'KILL' and 'BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD'.

"You can keep it, It's not like I have any use for it." Techno closed the journal before placing it back on Ranboo's lap. The younger stayed silent as the other gently reached out before gently patting him on the head awkwardly. "I was just looking for the TV remote so I could watch my rom coms, anyway."


But as the other stood up and started to make a move to walk away, he paused.


Techno looedk back as he said, "oh, and Ranboo?"


"Y-yeah?"


"J ust  rem ember  to  no t  me ss  with  stuf f  that  i sn't  you rs  n extim e. Peo ple  som eti mes  are n't  a s  forg iv ing." 


Ranboo could only stare at the other, Techno's crimson eyes now instead a bright green that transitioned into a golden color when it neared the pupil. There was a strange distortion to his voice as if another person was speaking over him—yet saying the same thing. 


Techno suddenly blinked, his eyes changing back to their normal crimson red. He paused, not moving for a moment as he looked a bit confused. 


"Well, good night, kid."

Ranboo didn't say anything as the other walked away, the teen still not moving as the journal once again trembled before snapping back open. Barely, he glanced down, blinking hard as he saw a new line written on the pages.

[Fuck a tree.]


He immediately closed the journal.

"...I think that's enough for tonight."



9:12 AM

Father Detective: WHO GAVE WILBUR KNIFE PRIVLEGES??

Father Detective: oh great

I can already tell we're going to get another roommate in this already crowded house

a sentient blob of GOO at that


The Blade: You sound excited, Father.

But also didn't we just have a character introduction? Like that one person that's still unconscious somehow.


Arson is Magic: this is a filler episode obviously


Muffin: AAAAAA

THE GOO JUST ATE FUNDY


The Blade: But it's not really filler since it's canon to the story, right? Character introductions aren't really filler, to be frank...yet then again why would we have two character introductions back to back?

It must mean something.


Muffin: ohmygodohmygod


diamond man: its thr beauty og life bvad. jist sit bac and relax


Arson is Magic: technically it wasn't back to back though since the introduction of ████ was at chapter eight

Muffin: DON'T YOU HAVE A LASSO SKEPPY? WHY AREN'T YOU USING IT

green bastard: wait what the hell did you just say sapnap???


The Blade: He said "technically it wasn't back to back though since the introduction of ████ was at chapter eight".

Oh, hm. Strange. Our script must be stopping us from saying the name.


Funsized Fundy: CAN YOU GUYS JUST SHUT UP AND HELLEPFKDVBHORIGWPFOED


bi king: rest in peace furry. you might be missed


Bee: yah! we'll creamate u and put ur ashes in yor animal skin!!


quack: wait his what now


Bee: animal skin


bi king: you mean his fur suit??


Bee: same thing



"SACRIFICE, SACRIFICE, SACRIFICE!"


"How the hell are we going to get him out of there?"


"Everyone in favor of leaving him there say I!"

"I."


It was not that improbable to call the situation a flaming dumpster fire, with maybe about 10+ people standing around what looked to be a pile, or well—blob of green slime. Amidst the jello-like consistency of goo, a certain person (cough Fundy cough) seemed to be floating and or stuck in said slime. Each of the so-called "main character from their universe" people seemingly confused about what to do.


Bad, for one, counting himself definitely as one of those people. A permanent worry etched into his face as he fidgeted, glancing back and forth in hopes that someone would help the poor furr—Fundy. That someone would help Fundy.


"I'm not touching that shit," Wilbur said. Glaring down at the slime as he took a step back when it started to seep towards him.


Schlatt nodded off at the side. "Neither am I."


"Well I will!" 


Everyone simultaneously turned to the person who said that, most if not everyone surprised to find it was indeed Tubbo. The young boy rolling up his sleeves as he smiled, kneeling down. "It shouldn't be that bad," he said. Ignoring the protests and warnings that were echoed from the people around him. "After all, It can't be worse than that time ma' caught the bubonic pla—"


And just as Tubbo stuck his hands into the slime, it seemed to suck him in with a sickening squelch. Several or more people responding by recoiling in disgust or surprise. Bad doing the ladder as he watched yet another person be added to the goo's collection.


"NOOOO, HE WAS TOO YOUNG!"


"Isn't he several hundred years older us?"


"Another one bites the dust—"


"My god I'm surrounded by idiots."


The retorts and reactions were suddenly silenced, though, as a part of the slime seemed to twitch strangely. The section of the goo swirling abnormally before abruptly...a face appeared.


"Hi guys!"


The happy greeting was responded with the whole group screaming in horror.
