    Summary

    In Manburg there's no mercy for criminals. Getting caught by the guards is an immediate death sentence.

    Tommy has managed to avoid them for 9 years now--by day, as an arrogant pickpocket with a mouth almost as fast as his hands, and by night as the renowned Underground thief known only as Theseus.

    Things are going well, all things considered.

    And then he gets a message from the infamous Antarctic gang and everything goes to shit.

    Now Tommy has to handle pulling off the heist of his life, all while hiding his true identity from both the tyrannical government and his new associates in the most feared gang in the city.

    Summary

    Tommy was handed a small flyer in printed in black and white, with the words “POETRY NIGHT - OPEN MIC” splayed across the front in bubbled font. He fumbled with his binder as he took it, eyes wide as he said, “are you sure? I mean, I love poetry and all, but I don’t think-I’m not sure—what if I can’t write poetry?”

    Mr. Sam’s dark eyes softened, and he reached out to place a hand on Tommy’s shoulder, squeezing it gently. “Everyone has to start somewhere; every poet, from me to Rudy Francisco, started off without knowing a clue about what we were doing. Tommy, it’s not about if you can or cannot write poetry, it’s about if you want to.”

    or:
    The performance poetry AU in which Tommy joins a slam team and finds a home in the arts.

    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 takes his last trembling breath.

    Tommy pulls away from Wilbur's side, bile rising in his throat. He stands on shaking legs, finds his stray knife on the ground and picks it up with blood-coated hands.

    He impales himself with the knife in one quick, practiced stab.

    His last thought is this: he is not losing his best friend like this- he is not losing his best friend at all.

    or, Wilbur dies on a Tuesday afternoon. Tommy wakes up on a Tuesday morning. So it goes.

    This is the Worst Possible Outcome by

    Summary

    Aliens.

    Aliens!

    The adrenaline was slowly seeping away at this point, ragged breaths escaping him as he stared down at the defeated alien.

    This was literally the worst possible outcome that could’ve come from his and his foster mothers’ argument. Like, he expected maybe a scolding when he got back, or at worst the police called on him for running away, but no. Honest to god aliens.

     

    Or,


    Humans are a young race, and Tommy, a particularly volatile human, is plucked from his home and forced to survive in a foreign land. It certainly doesn't help with the fact that the whole of galactic society is under the impression humans lack the ability for complex thought.

    OR, OR, tommy is a sewer rat and the rest of space is new york city and everyone is irrationally terrified of the rat.
