    Summary

    “Toms,” Wilbur turns his attention to him for the first time since being home. They’ve been here for hours. “How’s school? You still struggling with maths?” An innocent question, a stupidly innocent question that Wilbur asks to be nice, to be pleasant, to catch up with his baby brother.

    “I haven’t had any calls from his teachers recently, so he must be.” A joke, he knows Phil is joking but it twists his heart in the wrong direction and shatters any shards of hope Tommy had left for his family.

    “I’m in college, for video editing.” He says, because he is, and they don’t seem to know that. “I passed maths with an A.” He frowns, picking up his fork and using it to grab a piece of the garlic bread and dropping it on his plate. “Like two years ago.” He adds.

    The silence is unpleasantly loud, it’s far more familiar than the laughing. He almost feels bad.

    Almost.

    -

    OR Tommy's relationship with his family told through the dinning room and the family dinner they have after his brothers finally come home after eight years.

    “I am a fully grown ass man.” Tommy retorted.

    “You’re a minor??”
    “A fully grown ass man.” He insisted.

    Summary

    Tommy needed to get the fuck out of here yesterday.

    He slammed his foot down on the brake of his stolen car and shifted into drive, ignoring the chaos of the superpowered fight going on less than a block away. He was about to pull out of the alley he was hidden in when the passenger door was abruptly yanked open. Tommy jumped, head snapping towards the door.

    He came face to face with a man wearing an opaque black veil.

     

    Shit.

     

    Or: Tommy is a teenager on the run from the number one superhero in the city, Dream. In his most humble opinion, he's doing great at staying under the radar while making his escape attempt.

    That is until three of the most feared villains in the city decide he's now their getaway driver. Fuck his life

    Summary

    "Don't do anything to him," Tommy manages, heartbeat throbbing and throbbing. "Please."

    Wilbur frowns, but it's Techno who steps forward. "Tommy, he's not going to do anything," Techno tells him cautiously. "You don't need to worry, alright?"

    To you, Tommy would say, if he was stronger. He's not going to do anything to you.

    But he doesn't. Tommy keeps his mouth shut—whatever it takes to stay.

     

    When Techno and Wilbur Soot-Watson anger a bully, it shouldn't be an issue. They are as untouchable as they can get, for students anyway.

    It's unfortunate that Tommy, their foster brother, isn't. Being their soft spot, it only makes sense that he becomes the next target.

    Summary

    “Hey kid, sorry I didn't see you there. How can I help you?”

    The kid shoots up and he looks scared out of his mind for a second before scowling. “I’m not a fuckin’ kid,” he snaps. Wilbur laughs softly, the kids eyes are blue, they remind him of Phil.

    “Right, how can I help you?”

    The kids’ bristling demeanor dies down instantly and he looks suddenly much more nervous. The kids posture is shit, Wilbur notices, his shoulders are up and slouched over his chest almost protectively. He starts fidgeting with sleeves of his shirt and he quickly but quietly pulls out a five dollar bill, he slides it across the bar to Wilbur.

    “Could I have a- could I get a-“ He pauses, shakes his head and looks up.
    “Hamburger and sweet potato fries,” He says it with a confident voice but scared eyes and body language.

    Summary

    When Harry can't deal with the overbearing press and public expectations after the end of the war anymore, he escapes to the quaint little town of Forks, Washington, where he intends to do... well, anything, really. He expects to run into trouble. What Harry doesn't expect is a vampire coven, their pet human, and everything that follows.

    Summary

    Tommy uncrosses his legs. “You were ignoring me- I felt justified.”

    “I was ignoring your character,” Wilbur corrects. “I was being a good fake brother. I was being a good actor.”

    Tommy falters a little. Fake. Fake brother. Good actor. He swallows. “Uh- yeah. Yeah.”

    or, SBI are actors on a sitcom, and of course, they play a happy family- unfortunately for Tommy, the lines between fact and fiction are easily blurred and hard to define.

    Summary

    “Philza Minecraft," Dream says, slowly. There's a hard edge to his voice. "What's a man like you doing in a place like this?”

    Dream is still there, still a threat, still banishing his sword, but the threat of swords crumble in the threat of obsidian wings. And the threat of obsidian wings crumbles in the threat of another sword being unsheathed and a gait too heavy to be any of the people from L’Manburg that come from behind Tubbo.

    “He is not the only one,” a voice rumbles from behind—deep, echoing, and terrifying. “He’s just the flashiest.”

    Tubbo looks up and wishes he’s surprised to meet the eyes of the Blood God.

    Or: The SMP has no idea exactly who Tommy and Wilbur’s family is.

    So imagine their surprise when—after Wilbur enlists his family to come help finish the war between L’Manburg and the Greater Dream SMP—it’s not another scrappy nobody with a too loud mouth and too many dreams that shows up in the midst of war. No, instead, Wilbur and Tommy’s family happen to be Technoblade, the Blood God, and Philza fucking Minecraft.

    Summary

    Tommy Danger Kraken Innit, his full legal name by the way, was set to die on September 8th when he was 16. It was a simple fact, normal as everything else in Tommy’s life. The sky was blue, the ocean was fucking weird and he was going to die before he ever saw 18. He wasn’t going to go to college, he wasn’t going to get a job and he wasn’t going to live a long and happy life like most people got to.

    Why bother with life when you were going to die before you could live it?

    Enter the Za family.

    Summary

    Wilbur starts mumbling under his breath. “No. No, it can’t be. No way. This is a child. This is an actual child. No way.”

    “Hey!” Tommy calls, beaming. “It’s child prodigy to you, Soot. Watch yourself, I probably have double your IQ.”

    Wilbur comes to attention, eyes narrowing at him. “How… how? How are you in college? You’re a child.”

    “Graduated early,” Tommy boasts. “Valedictorian, top of my class. Don’t be too impressed.” He pauses. “Your mouth’s open. You might wanna close it, mate. Your throat will dry up and you’ll die.”

    Wilbur closes his mouth slowly. He continues watching Tommy’s expression, as if waiting for this to be a joke. “I have to room with a fourteen-year-old?” He thinks out-loud, horrified.

    “Oi. Fourteen and three-quarters! ” Tommy reminds him.

    ---

    Or, tired-out barely-adult Wilbur and child prodigy Tommy are college roommates. This arrangement leads to a lot of shenanigans.

    Summary

    Soulmates share scars. If one soulmate receives an injury that is damaging enough to leave a scar, then their soulmate will bleed and scar with them. Bruises, papercuts and small little knicks won’t travel across the bond, but life-threatening wounds, injuries that define a person’s life? They travel over. Your body a canvas of the journey you and your soulmate have gone through in life to reach each other.

    It's meant to be heart-warming and special to meet your soulmate. It's only been hell for Tommy...

    Summary

    There was a fleeting moment where Tommy doubted.

    Was this really worth it?

    Yes, absolutely. Techno was being a massive bitch boy. He deserved it.

    So Tommy crouched down so his eyes were level with the opening of the shampoo bottle, and slowly but surely poured in the bright pink powder.

    OR

    a royalty au in which tommy and technoblade get into an argument around the holidays, which leads to disastrous consequences (and a little bit of flower symbolism.)

    Summary

    After an article goes around claiming Techno, an internationally renowned chef and the host of Hell's Kitchen, is actually "soft" for his younger brother, Tommy. With the eleventh season on a rise, the question remains: Is Techno, one of the most intimidating and terrifying chefs on television, really a big softie for his sibling?

    OR

    Times Technoblade was soft for Tommy on live air and one time Dream understood why.

    Summary

    Tommy seems pale and drawn, like a person stepping up to the gallows, as he enters the booth to sing. His hands don’t shake, but it feels disingenuous of Wilbur to look at that as a ray of light in everything. The group of them watch from behind the one way glass as Tommy steps up to the microphone. His eyes fall closed and they don’t open back up.

    When he sings, it’s such a wail of pain that Wilbur’s sure by the end that Tommy will drop to his knees and heave.

    He doesn’t. Almost by miracle, Tommy’s standing when he's finished, and with a creased, ruined expression and a torn heart, he steps back from the mic and walks out like it was nothing.

    There’s silence, then –

    “Holy shit,” Schlatt says, and yeah. That just about sums it all up.

    Or, Tommy is a young pop artist going on tour - he holds auditions for his touring band and ends up getting not just a band, but a family. It's just -- he doesn't seem to know that. (based around Olivia Rodrigo's album Sour)

    Summary

    “Wilbur, don’t you dare start-”
    “You can either sign over the custody on your own will, or I’ll call CPS for child neglect. It’s up to you.”
    “You’re threatening me.” It wasn’t a question but a statement.
    “I… Yeah. Yeah, dad, I am.”
    Phil stared at him for a moment, before taking a deep, shuddering breath. “I’ll do it, then.”

    The first ten years of Tommy's life were the last ten years of Wilbur's.

    Or, SBI is a family. The job of raising Tommy is thrust onto Wilbur's shoulders. This is the story of how he deals with that.

    Summary

    “Listen to me, LISTEN.” Techno grabs the front of Dream’s shirt, yanking, and when Dream tries to kick away, grabbing a handful of snow in his hand, Techno swings, punching Dream hard across the face. He can feel the mask crack under his fist, and he does not care, even as it crumbles off Dream’s face, falling to the ground. “Get this through your head-”

    Dream coughs, gasping for air, trying to back away, hitting his hands against Techno’s arms. “Wait, wait, Techno, think about this-” Techno slams a fist across his face again. Blood hits the snow.

    ---

    In which Techno has slowly but surely been developing a grudge against Dream, with Wilbur getting pushed to insanity and death (Dream had only pushed him farther), with Phil’s wings getting clipped to comply with his rules (Those were his wings, Dream had no Right-), with the way he’s always after power, always after control (Always meddling, always switching where it’ll benefit the most).

    It boils over when he finds Tommy hiding away under his house, dirty, cold, and broken.

    At that point, Dream is just fucked.

    Summary

    Tommy does not live in a fairytale. He ran away from his parents in an act of survival, not rebellion. He gets a sketchy janitor job that’s in the middle of nowhere to have a place to sleep, not rest.

    Yet when he meets the creatures- the merfolk- he believes he’s in a fairytale. He cleans their tank and observes them from their iron bars, trying but failing to ignore the bruises on them.

    As time progresses, Tommy decides that the creatures deserve their happily ever after. No more Dream or experiments, and no more Tommy once they escape.

    No happy ending for Tommy. That is if the creatures didn’t have their own script they were following.

    Summary

    Prince Theseus, a child of blonde and blue, a child of isolation and a crave for touch. He's the youngest in the Royal Family, and somehow the most forgotten. The most neglected. The most alone.

    Tucked away in his tower, the young prince watches the world move on without him, watches his family welcome two new princes into their arms, and yet reject him when he cries desperately from nightmares or shivers from a painful wound.

     

    "Wilby?" The child had murmured, all curious and hesitant at once. He was tucked in his older brother's lap, watching as his other sibling sparred with their father. "We'll always be together, right? Forever and ever?"

    Wilbur smiled. "Of course, Tommy. Forever and ever."

     

    The Hanahaki rising in young Theseus' throat says otherwise.
