Work Text:
He had just finished up stream. 5 hours was a long stream for the average streamer on SMP, but to Tubbo it was cake. It was still only about 7:30 PM and Tubbo was already out of stuff to do, he was a bit bored of gaming- wait he knew! He could regress with his caregiver Phil!
Age regression had spread around the SMP like wildfire, since the Dream SMP community is probably one of the largest hubs for it. Tubbo knew most of the members were somewhat involved in age regression, he even found out Schlatt had already been secretly regressing for years, which was a bit of shock.
They all decided on one big server where the only topic was age regression so nothing would leak. Tubbo turned back around to his PC and clicked on the server, it being called "Little SMP", which to be fair wasn't that creative of a name, but they all got a good laugh out of it.
Tubbo already felt his mind getting a little fuzzy reading the messages, awwing at a conversation that little Tommy and caregiver Wilbur had 2 days ago. He'd really wished the server was more active, but he knew most only regressed every few days or once a week, so there were bound to be dry days.
Sadly it didn't look like Phil was online, Wilbur was streaming, Dream and Sapnap were offline, pretty much any caregiver in the server was offline. This sucked, Tubbo really wanted to regress with a caregiver, anyone of them!
Back before Tubbo told anyone of his regression, he'd just regress alone in his bed, babbling at his stuffie from his childhood that was in bad condition, but he'd still love it the same. He really wouldn't do much, sometimes cry, it really wasn't much at all. He'd love to tell his parents, the way their personalities were he knew they would support him, he just didn't think this was a "parent" thing, this was a him thing.
Well now it was a friend thing, and the only others not busy were littles- wait Tubbo's had another great idea, he could ask if any was regressed and VC with them! He knew they would be safe, since they were watching out for each other.
He took his chances and began typing.
Tubbo: @littles anyone regressed?
Tubbo: Wanna do a VC!
Tommy: Baby Tubbo on the way huh
Tommy: I mean I'd love to VC I'm just not regressed, any @caregivers online?
Tubbo: already checked. no :(
Wilbur: I'll be off soon you two :) no frowny faces Tubs
Tubbo: I'm not regressed yet either
Tubbo: @Wilbur can we pleaseeeeeeeeee do a little VC, we'll be good I promise!
Tommy: hell yea
Wilbur: That's fine since I'll be there soon, if there's an emergency please let me know I'll be there right away.
George: baby
George: gon join!!
Tommy: well hell yea again
Tubbo: Ok 3 of us? We'll be ok
Tubbo clicked on the VC. No one had joined yet, then he heard the notable sound effect, Tommy had joined the call, followed almost immediately by George.
Tommy had his camera on and was chewing away at this thumbnail, this was usually a sign he was going to regress.
"So were having a littles only VC tonight huh? This is fu- frickin' awesome!" Tommy said.
"Alright, let's have an age check George. Tommy between us whoever hasn't slipped first ask the other for an age check." Tubbo said, pointing at Tommy.
"I'm on my way big man." Tommy joked as the two saw George hold up 2 fingers, humming behind his paci.
"Wha' shou' we do?" Tubbo asked the others.
"Wan' Dweamie or Sap." George lightly responded. While Tommy responded with "Watch shows."
"Dw- Dream 'n Sap are offline." Tubbo stumbled over his words, almost regressed but still a bit big.
"You can slip righ' now Tubbo. Can- can get age check?" Tommy asked, not realizing he'd slipped just as much as the other.
"I's about fouw!"
Tommy thought to himself, and realized he had slipped too. "Cool! I'm 'bout 6, still think I gonna slip younger."
"You can be big brother Tommy." Tubbo responded back, while George mumbled back "Big brover."
"Feewin' tiwed George? You can go ni ni if yous want."
"Don' wanna. Not tired!" George shot back an enthusiastic response.
"Ok den." Tubbo said, a bit flabbergasted.
Tommy and Tubbo both decided on getting changed into comfier clothes, Tommy picking a dinosaur onesie, and Tubbo going with a big hoodie and comfy shorts, which were enough for him when he was little. The two came back to find George asleep in the background sucking on his paci, phone just a black screen as George was so tired he'd probably dropped it.
Tommy was still big enough to remember how to kick people from call, so he kicked George and let him get a good nights rest.
"Wha' movie we's watchin?" Tubbo asked Tommy after he saw George get removed from the call, reaching over to grab his pacifier. Usually when he was 4 or older, he'd think he was too big for a pacifier, but seeing that comfy with his in made him want that same comfort.
Right at that moment, the two hear a notification from the server, the two peaking their interest as they thought Wilbur finally was joining.
*Ranboo has joined the server!*
Wait? Ranboo? Other than Connor, Foolish, and HBomb, Ranboo was the only other member not in the server.
"Tommy! Tommy! Wook who i' is! Boo!" Tubbo bounced in his chair, at this point he had definitely slipped younger, probably down to 2, but that wasn't an important matter right now. Ranboo was here!
Ranboo: Hi guys! I just got done telling Phil I'm also a regressor, I'm pretty excited to be here!
Ranboo: It was embarrassing but I'm gonna rip off the band-aid and tell everyone!
Phil: Yes he is!
Phil was online now too? This is great!
Tommy: we in da littl vc join!
Tommy: dada you too!
Ranboo: Feeling fuzzy so sounds good
Phil: sounds good you two!
Phil: well *three, i see Tubs too!
Tubbo: dadaaaaa
Tubbo: feeln smaller
Ranboo and Phil joined the VC at the same time. Ranboo was a bit taken aback at by hearing friends babbling just like him, but it only made him slip faster.
"Alright everyone, let's get an age check. Ranboo let me know when you slip-" Phil was cut off.
"I's 4!"
"You slipped already huh?" Phil chuckled at the fact, and couldn't bring the smile from his face after.
Tommy held up 6 fingers, while Tubbo alternated between 1 and 2 fingers.
"You're really tiny tonight huh Tubbo? That's perfectly fine."
"Shows." Tubbo sleepily demanded the others, seeing George on the VC earlier and then putting in his paci made him really tired.
"Feeling tired young one?"
No! How did he catch on?
"A lil dada. Wan' shows wif dada an' 'ommy an' Boo an' Wilby"
"Ok we can watch shows for awhile, but I want you to get into bed alright?"
"Too 'mall to do da phone. Gon' mess it up."
Phil had started SpongeBob for the others while speaking to Tubbo, it was Ranboo's favorite show to watch when regressed and he got special priority tonight since he was new. Phil knew he would have to do this in person when they meet up again and teach him, Tubbo was a smart little, but the technology was just hard!
"Alright then, you can stay in your chair, but when you're getting real tired, tell dada and you can go to bed and sleep, I'll do it for you."
"Wuv 'ou 'a'a!" Tubbo mumbled through his pacifier, giving Phil another laugh.
Tubbo loved this so much, and now Wilbur was joining them soon, Ranboo was a regressor just like him, he could do this in real life with the others at the next meetup. He really loved streaming, but this was a side of him only his friends had to know, and that was just fine.
