Work Text:
A familiar figure can be seen, Philza runs up to Techno but stops as soon as he saw him, he asked what happened but received no answer, his throat and vocal cords were cut open
Philza took him in and tried all sorts of things to restore his voice, but nothing worked, not even potions. Techno just wrote that he was happy to see Phil again, not even aware that he himself is dead.
"Technoblade never dies" Which has been engraved into his own mindset, made him think he was still alive, just voiceless. Not even remembering who killed him or how he died.
Ranboo and Niki were visiting and saw TechnoGhost's state. Niki tried to comfort Techno which made Techno confused, why does he need comforting? Is something wrong? Ranboo on the other hand, tried to give him gifts (lots of dirt which Techno keeps safely, even with a full inventory and needing space, he'd throw something else) and taught him sign language.
I like to think Ranboo knows sign language because he doesn't really like eye contact and while speaking works, if a person can't be verbal, he wants to be able to still understand them :D
Whenever it rains or snows and Techno's outside, Phil would show up out of nowhere and shield him with his wing. Where does he keep popping out from???
Niki likes to teach TechnoGhost how to bake things, not exactly expecting him to actually participate but was happy when he agreed.
Ranboo, other than gifting him grass blocks and stuff, helps Techno move things around when needed.
Technoghost likes giving potatoes to all of them as gifts, and in return, they return their own gifts, whether it was another potato, grass block, or cake, he'd always keep it safe in a hidden chest or ender chest. He would never throw them away even if he needs to pick something up from his full inventory.
Ranboo gifted Techno boots because ya know, snow, and even though Techno had his own pair, he wears it every now and then, it doesn't wear down as easily since it's a pair of mending boots. He reluctantly accepted the gift but secretly cherished it inside.
Actually any gifts TechnoGhost gets he reluctantly accepts unless it's from Phil- "it's- it's not like I like it or anything, this is just for the baked potatoes I gave you before"
Technoghost likes to be around Steve and the foxes along with the other polar bears. They don't know why their owner looks different and didn't trust him at first, but eventually warmed up to him.
Tommy's reaction
At first, Tommy didn't believe it, 'Techno isn't a ghost. He can't BE a ghost. He's not supposed to die, he never dies. Right? Then.. Why is he a ghost now?' A lot of thoughts went through his mind, yet he's still a ghost. "Who are you. WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT DID YOU DO TO TECHNO?!?" TechnoGhost only looked, not being able to speak because of the whole vocal cord damaged thing. "Answer me you bastard. You weren't supposed to die. You- You can't be him-- You never die...right?" Techno... was confused. He wasn't dead, he's still there, alive. At least, he thinks so. How was he suppose to comfort the crying child?
Quackity figured out, Techno would just be useless, he doesn't have anything he needs, other than his life of course. That and he was getting quite annoying with his constant back talk. "Before I fucking kill you, let's shut you up. Permanently." Afterall, a life for a life right? Dream was helpless to say the least.
Ghostza remembers his regrets and only a few other memories. Parts where he was powerless? iunno I was just given this prompt X)
Ghostza wanders around Techno's house. Techno welcomes him but stops when he sees him. "Phil? Phil what happened?" He was concerned for his most trusted friend. Ghostza hugs him and quietly let's tears fall, burning his skin. Apologizing over and over again on not being able to help him during his execution. Techno only comforted him, telling him it wasn't his fault at all. He invites him in. And from then on, Phil would apologize every now and then out of nowhere. And Techno would respond back to him telling him that it's fine. Techno will revive him. Whether it takes all month or all his lives, for him, the world is much more empty without Phil.
Alternately, if both ghosts see each other:
Ghostza seeing Technoghost and thinking it was his fault that he died, not having any memory of the prison, bawls his eyes out and spent his days hanging around Techno, trying to help with whatever he can. And when both of them are out in the rain/snow with nothing in their inventory, Ghostza will use his wings to protect Techno even if it hurts/melts him.
Technoghost on the other hand, scolds himself for not protecting/being there for Phil when he died. Now, he sticks to Ghostza and refuses to leave his side, not wanting him to disappear forever. He gets restless whenever Ghostza leaves for more than a few minutes and gives him the biggest hugs when he comes back. If he doesn't, he'll assume the worse and go out to search for Ghostza. Even if it causes him pain.
Aaand both of them disliked leaving each others' sides. They'll stick together wherever they go.
Ghostza also gets protective of Ranboo and Niki whenever they face danger. Not wanting them to die either, but will go for Techno first since out of all of them, he had 0 canon lives left.
