Headcanon qTubbo as profoundly deaf with cochlear implants. Whenever the sounds truly get too much, he just. Turns it off (like he does with the voice-proximity mod irl). Oh you're talking? Well good fucking luck he physically can't hear you !!^^
This is literally one of my favorite place on the dream smp. It has such a calming, conforming vibe.
I have been technically working on this for a year, I was working on it on Niki’s art stream for those who remember. It took me a while, but now more than ever I thought this deserved to be finished. And I absolutely love the result.
Here have some close-ups
It’s not a lot, but this does make me feel a bit better, and I hope everyone can find a bit of home within this ♥︎
Witch AU where village kid catshifter!Tommy starts developing magic.
It’s terrifying, sure. But he’s friends with the SBI coven, and they’ll surely take him in — though they don’t know he’s a shifter, they’re still kind.
So Tommy’s stunned when Phil flat-out rejects him.
“They’ll notice if a kid goes missing.”
*Not me,* Tommy almost says. That’s part of the problem. He’s barely able to stay in the village now — let alone if they discover he’s a witch.
But he still can’t bear to tell Phil, with his new magic so weak it’s only a liability.
“Phil, I can’t— I need a place to stay,” Tommy says, bordering on fearful frustration. “I wouldn’t ask if we weren’t— friends.”
*I thought we were,* he thinks. After all the times he’d played with the twins as a kid, Phil smiling & watching over them.
He must've been wrong.
“No, Tommy.” Phil’s voice is soaked with frustration, too. “I can’t take care of you. Not if—”
He cuts off. Tommy still hears it.
*Not if it endangers my real sons.”
And, filled with a broken rage, Tommy snaps.
“If you send me back, I’ll tell them where you live.”
It’s an empty threat.
That must be clear, with how Tommy’s shaking, on the verge of tears. But he must’ve underestimated how much Phil loves his sons.
And how much he *doesn’t* love Tommy.
Because, voice humming with magic, Phil utters, “You won’t say *anything.*”
Tommy opens his mouth.
To apologize, to beg, to tell Phil the truth. *I love you. You make me feel safe.*
But of course, nothing comes out.
Just like Phil wanted.
The worst part is, there’s only relief in Phil’s expression. No regret.
Not until Tommy stumbles back, shaking as he tries to form apology after apology, clutching uselessly at his throat.
And even then, there’s only regret in Phil’s expression when Tommy turns and bolts.
(“He’ll be safe.”
That’s how Phil consoles his sons, comforting them with the idea of Tommy back at the village, warm, fed, and protected.
They don’t notice the cat huddled beside their house, pressed desperately against the wall.
Not until it sits silently on their doorstep.
And Tommy… Tommy’s okay with this.
At least he’s with them. Even if he can’t speak, can’t risk shifting back, can’t even purr when they hold him close — closer than they ever did when he was a filthy, skinny kid. Even if he’s still terrified of Phil.
Think of it this way Scar, Grian keeps the mark between you and him, meaning its some special you two share
What was Grian's reaction to being bitten/finding out why Scar did it?
Scar’s brain works in mysterious ways…
Kisses are special.
Kisses mean love.
Scar is loved so he gets kisses. Grian’s kisses.
Grian only loves Scar cause he doesn’t give Mumbo kisses.
