Earth Music on the Lost Light: Human Music That Cybertronians Like
Tumblr media
we know for a fact that the Lost Light has access to human media, primarily movies, TV shows, and music-- and we know they generally seem to fucking love most of it, or at least find it interesting
but what would everyone's tastes be, in regards to Earth music?
time to talk about music for a long time!!! strap in, enjoy some tunes
we already know Cyclonus has impeccable taste and enjoys some of the best jams the 80s had to offer.
I can't help but imagine Rodimus being given a media archive of Earth tunes to approve for the Earth Dance would only result in chaos
(it's not like he would say no to anything, he absolutely blanket signed it all, it's just an obligatory thing-- or Ultra Magnus tells him it is, solely to keep him away from Important Captain Things that he would rather handle himself or hand off to Megatron, lmao. the shit that really needs to get done)
and this is how Rodimus discovers the somewhat questionable yet amazing genre of "mid-90s underground techno rave mix tapes"
(somewhat related, I still think Testarossa might as well be Rodimus' theme song, although it's not a 90s track and has more of an 80s synth vibe)
Rodimus would love that "computers are the future, fuck yeah let's make Digital Cool Future Music" mid-90s shit, there is no way he would not. it has the exact energy level that appeals to him and is also cheesy and weird and chaotic. and has like 500 different sub-genres, so his selection is endless, lmao.
he would probably find it cute that this is what humans imagined to be the peak of "digital sound" at the time. like lmao this was the best humans could do when asked to create music that sounds like it was made by robots or other mechanical space future cyber lifeforms--high concept!!! he would probably find it interesting and endearing. this is what organics think non-organic music is like!!
anyone acting as DJ at Swerve's on any given night would be so, so mad that Rodimus keeps requesting shit like "DJ MASSIMO ITALO DISCO BEST RAVE TUNES LIVE FROM LONDON 1995" or "DJ ARMPIT SLUDGE FEST HOUSE-RAVE-DRUMS N BASS SET 1996" for them to play, lmao
not individual tracks. the whole album. entire mix tapes of random, somewhat questionable mid-90s techno house rave bullshit.
that having been said, that good ass early 90s trance techno might send him into a spiral depending on his mood at the time, lmao (it's been known to happen)
but at the same time I can imagine him sharing tracks like Solar Quest - Space Pirates with Drift and they'd both just sit there and jam out, but quietly, thinking about shit while sitting in a port window next to each other (this was peak sleepover party techno, Back in My Day-- many deep conversations were had while listening to stuff like this, lol)
Drift would probably find some of Rodmus' recommended stuff to be pretty good for meditation-- although once he finds out about the human drug culture involved and certain concepts of experimental consciousness etc. that surrounded techno/rave and other related genres, it might cause him to pull back a little bit
(until he finds out about kandi culture, in which case, Drift would love the idea of hand-made unique bracelets and sentimental trinkets being made and exchanged at warehouse shows purely out of Good Vibes and Love for Fellow Beings and it turns out actually he fucking loves this shit, a chill vibes based "expand your mind" kind of music subculture appeals to his Spectralist sensibilities and he likes sharing tunes with Rodimus in return)
Drift picking tracks on his own would likely lead him down more of a classic rock road, but more of the chill side of things, more of the folksy type of classic rock -- I can see Drift really enjoying Spirit in the Sky - Norman Greenbaum or California Dreamin' - The Mamas and the Papas. or like, Incense and Peppermints - Strawberry Alarm Clock.
I mean, Drift might even go Full Earth Hippie and end up liking Green Tambourine - Lemon Pipers, lmao. in fact I am fairly certain of this.
I can see Drift loving Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In - The 5th Dimension. the whole vibe would probably appeal to him.
he'd quite possibly also like I Need a Dollar - Aloe Blacc, but it hits him in a place that still hurts to think about. so it's in rare rotation.
meanwhile Ratchet would probably be fine with classic rock too, like the good Dad Rock shit, just a lot of tracks from the 70s/80s -- a couple tracks he and Drift could probably agree on would likely lean more into the experimental/psychedelic rock side of things, like White Room - Cream or something like Wheel in the Sky - Journey
Rodimus tries to troll Ratchet by recommending Old Time Rock n Roll - Bob Seger, but joke's on him because it turns out Ratchet loves it, lmao
Swerve would go all out on classic bar jams for the evening playlist. Chill, good shit like Do It Again - Steely Dan.
Megatron would love Sinnerman - Nina Simone; He'd send it to Drift in a command crew level secured data packet, and they would both feel the hell out of this song. They don't need to talk about why. They never mention it to each other.
Megs would also probably love These Old Bones by Dolly Parton (mostly due to the lyrics, rather than the upbeat tune, but he would find it relatively relaxing), as well as 9 to 5 (of course), and similar music. Country from back in the day when country music was more about the struggle of poverty and the working life of rural people. Country music from back when songs told all the untold stories. He can respect that.
He'd listen to You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive by Patty Loveless and it would get him right in the fucking spark. Megatron is the Cybertronian equivalent of an Appalachian miner, god dammit. He understands.
Megatron would also like Johnny Cash; He would overthink Ghost Riders in the Sky and it would depress him, partly because it reminds him of Seekers... sigh.
I think he'd also like Cold War - Janelle Monae. He'd be way into good lyrics; What's being said in a song matters most to him. "This is a cold war, you better know what you're fighting for..." Indeed.
anyway I like thinking about what jams Cybertronians might like from their available selection of Earth tunes

11 16 20 for misha!
11. What song is 100% garunteed to get your OC beyond turnt and will be sung loudly and emabarrasingly, either in public or the shower?
Starting off strong with the hard questions huh? Misha has missed so much iconic music due to being trapped underground for 55 and a bit years, and he isn’t in a hurry to catch up to be honest. He dislikes how fast society is going these days, so he doesn’t have a smartphone or even a TV. He does however own a beaten old radio and thoroughly enjoys listening to a small town German radio station that only plays German techno music, He’d probably vibe to Kraftwerk’s Autobahn, but if anything would expose him to Eurovision Go_A’s Shum is guaranteed to get him beyond turnt.
16. How strong or weak is your OC’s Impulse control? What’s the worst thing that happened because of their Impulsivity or inability to be so?
He’s got surprisingly decent impulse control to be honest. As the eldest brother he had to be the responsible one and look after his baby sister from a very young age, and though he’s not exactly the brightest (never has been), he is smart enough to realise something could go horribly wrong if he meddled. This doesn’t mean he’s not quick to act though; if someone he loves is in danger he will immediately try to shield them from it, regardless of if it’s a fight he cannot win. He stared down the barrel of a shotgun to protect a member of his coterie, and diablerized a frenzied Prince to keep him from killing another.
His beast is a different matter though. It acts on instinct and causes him to do terrible things; its impulses have caused him to attack his loved ones on multiple occasions already.
20. What’s your OC smell like?  no, not that “Vanilla and Anxiety” evocative stuff, realistically.  Body odor? what have they been touching all day? When was thier last shower? Did they put on any kind of artificial scent?
Peppermint! No seriously! I’m not saying this to be cute, he genuinely smells like peppermint! He has a bag of peppermint on him at all times (sucking on them usually calms him down when he’s stressed), and sometimes he forgets to take them out of his pocket when doing laundry, so now he just always smells like peppermint and he’s accepted that. Helps mask the scent of blood you know?

pkmn scarlet/violet rant!
Now that i finished the main story, got almost all the pkmn (took me 60 hours, cause i just walk around to complete the dex ahsgfdasd) and i just have some postgame left. Here is my huge imhotake on it xD
7/10 Gameplay 4/10 Graphic/Performance 10/10 Pokemon 9/10 Music 11/10 Characters/story
41/50 Thats a pretty high score!
7/10 Gameplay Well its open world pokemon everyone wanted! You can go anywhere and do what you want. And now some ppl complain about not having directions haha When you literary can open the map and see exclamation marks on where to go so ??? Anyway, my problem was the repetitiveness off, everything? As much as liked just roaming and catching pkmn its still the same thing. To be fair most games are like that, based around 1-2 gameplay loops. I just wish these gameplay loops were a bit more interesting. But this is pkmn at its core. But my complaint is - why is the level no scaling? its not that hard to do gamefreak, I dont want to fight an early game trainer/gym i missed that still is lvl 10 after i beat 4 gyms. And some locations are pretty but too empty, just a lot of slapped on flat textures.
5/10 Graphic/Performance Everyone already saw the glitchs and some had multiple crashes. (i didnt experience any of that, just huge fps drops when it rained. Some ppl say the digital version is better and has less issues) Aside from that, you can finish and play the game from start to finish np! So i wont dwell on that any more. All in all, its the same situation as with Cyberpunk! Well almost cause CD Projektred over promised and under delivered massively at release date. Gamefreak pretty much did everything they promised! Just failed with the polish, bugs and graphics (when the grass is just a photoshop brush... its yeah, a bit very rushed (look at BOTW grass). The pkmn themself look great! Not like having some texture on pkmn is that important, but oh well. The character animations and animations OUTSIDE of battle or close to you are not bad. Inside of battle its the same as SWSH but you can rotate the camera, that sometimes cant even show stuff properly if you are on a hill or cave. Almost forgot! the huge down side of this game as well are the loading screens and the slowness of some things (that's especially noticeable in school).
10/10 Pokemon Like i always say - the one (well and music) things Gamefreak never fails is with designs and creating more pkmn! Of course there are mons i don't like (grasswaterstarterevos) but they are true to what they represent and i can respect that. Every pkmn is loved by someone and that's what makes the diversity of creatures so amazing.
9/10 Music Not much to say than that's its great! (Just a minus point from me personalty cause i don't like techno music and some tracks were like that >:C ) The transition between tracks is nice too.
11/10 Characters/Story I can say in general (NO spoilers)... this game has one of the best pkmn stories. Yes at the same level as gen 5 > 7 (which were the best imho so far.) It just like moulds together so well? Just the repetitiveness i talk about brings it down a bit. The characters have great designs and are (mostly, Nemonaplz) well written and its fun to learn about them! I'm glad GF took more time on story (wish they had even more time).
(mild spoilers) - Best character is the director hands down out of discussion. Not even joking xD. The school idea is very cute and i think its pretty good for newer players and kids who want to play and actually learn about pkmn! cause you do learn stuff in this school that is more then grass beats water, well its the first lesson so you do learn that too but after that i promise it gets better! History class is the coolest! (although i do wish we could learn about the region and cool stuff by y know talking to ppl a bit more...) As a person who was bullied in school, i like TEAM STAR’s story, but i wish they would tell the stories differently than the exact same 5 battles. Bonus! 6/10 locations. Decided to put locations here too cause why not. The main town is great! just some wonky spots that are empty, The other towns on the other hand, have a great look on the outside but when you go in, there's not much there. You can’t go inside of ANY buildings (just the sandwich +gyms). The "wilderness" is pretty much flat textures with pkmn randomly spawning on them. Just things GF needed to have more time to work on.
Conclusion-  Imma change the score too 39/50 cause the location bonus and that is a kinda important point too! SO If you can ignore some minor glitches and dont care about fps drops: Its a good game! Plus if you liked Arceus and just want to play a pkmn game its actually probably the best there is now on the switch! But the bad performance and now that even Nintendo is offering refunds, just shows that rushing unfinished games is not worth! and I hope they FINALLY gonna learn something from that.

Tumblr media
Art by @/hearts4r1na
Looks a little older than she is according to others due to her bust. Has been called a milf already at her old job and she felt so weird about it after but now took the Mom part as a positive as she does love children.
Is the same size as her brother due to eating his food often. She hides it via corseting and shapewear. All helpful tricks she learned from cosplaying.
Often used babysitting as a way to fund her hobbies as it got her stuff for cosplay and she got to play with cute babies. When she goes home for break often has a few mothers already wondering if for a few days can babysit.
She gets into character seriously if she got a cosplay costume on. Often not breaking character til she is taking a food break,talking to friends,or going home. Croissant actually cosplays too but only sibling characters with Matcha when she picks one otherwise he just lugs around the merch they buy at  a convention usually stuff of the character she dressed as and food anime related merch which is Croissant's favorite stuff.
Knowing she adores children and would like one in future she knows she has to start finding someone who may want the same but despite all her people skills she is terrible at flirting as she is self conscious. Nor can she deal with being directly flirted with as she gets flustered and just goes into idol mode on how to reject things as she taking it they only want her for looks not anything else even though she wants love. It's difficult for her. She'd like someone opposite of her for some reason for a lover.

Sorry for more questions I hope you don’t mind ^^” if you do lmk, I’m just interested in writing and you have such an amazing style <3
A) what character is the hardest to write? And which is the easiest?
B) what’s your writing process? Do you have a lot of drafts? Do you start over a lot? Do you play music or in complete silence?
C) similar to question A, which character is your favorite to write? And which is your least favorite?
D) does it ever hit you how many people have actually read your fics?
E) if you could write fanfiction for a career, would you?
Sorry again for all the questions!! No need to answer them all, I was just curious, but I don’t mean to be nosey /g
-🍄anon
I don't mind at all these are super fun questions!!!
A) Techno is the hardest to write by FAR. It's not that I don't watch his content or anything, I do! I really love him as a cc and think he's hilarious. I just struggle so much with how to characterize c!techno. Where to draw the line between humor and seriousness and how he talks about emotions—I overthink writing him so much lmao. Easiest character is definitely Tommy though, he's my boy
B) Aww that's cute that you guys think I write drafts /lh. I basically will have the plot for a chapter or fic outlined in loose bullet points, and then I just go through and write it from start to finish. Not all at once usually, but I go in chronological order and don't skip around. And I don't write multiple drafts or anything. While I might go back and add a few lines here and there or reword a sentence or two, nearly everything you see written is what I wrote down on my first run through. I don't have the patience to go back and heavily edit so I just write it as best I can the first time around and that's what we get. I almost never start over either. I think one of the only times I came close to starting something over was when I was writing vanderlyle, I ended up writing a huge chunk of the first bookstore scene with Wilbur and Tommy meeting and deleted nearly the entire thing because the tone wasn't right and it was messing me up trying to move forward. Also, sometimes I listen to music that's instrumental like movie soundtracks or lofi beats, on rare occasions I can listen to music with lyrics while i write but I have to be really focused, and sometimes I just write in total silence it really depends on my mood
C) Wilbur is my favorite to write hands down. I definitely think a bit more about characterizing him properly when I'm writing him vs Tommy, but I just love c!wilbur as a character so much. He's so complex and has so many facets to him, it's really fun to pick and choose which part of him I want to highlight in each of my works. And again I'd say Techno is my least favorite character to write mainly because of how difficult it is for me to write him
D) I definitely try to comprehend the numbers, but y'know how our cc's often say it's really hard to conceptualize the huge number of viewers they get? it's like that with my fics. It's so strange to sit there and try to comprehend that there have been over a million clicks on clinic. It's very strange to try and picture ~4500 people in a room and know that that many people get emails whenever I post literally anything, not just a specific fic. It's mind boggling to comprehend that at it's peak, over 10k people got an email every time I updated clinic. I struggle to even picture 1000 people in a room, let alone that many. so yeah, I don't really comprehend it most of the time, but I try my best to keep things in perspective because I'm so grateful to have the audience I have
E) hm, I don't know if I'd want to write mcyt fanfiction solely for a career for the rest of my life. my interests shift, and tbh mcyt is a fandom I've stuck around in for one of the longest periods of time, which is surprising since I've been fandom hopping since 2015. I would hate to get stuck creating fanfic solely for a singular fandom, and even if I had the opportunity to switch fandoms, I don't know if I'd want to be restricted creating fan content, y'know? My dream is to be a published author with original novels, so while I don't know if I'd wanna write fanfic for a living, I definitely know I want to write for a living :) It's been my dream since I was a little kid

hiiiii this is me talking about techno under the read more i just wanna talk about him cause ouchie
It's been pretty hard trying to wrap my head around the fact he's gone, most days whenever I think of him I wildly swing between denial and grief. I haven't really cried since the first initial day but it still really hurts and I miss him alot, I don't even know what I'd do in order to have him back, to hear his laughter and jokes again. I'm still not able to watch his videos and I skipped half of philzas last stream cause hearing about him and all his unfulfilled plans really hurt. I barely managed to catch the last half and it still hurt alot to see philza giving away so much stuff to the museum.
Most days I just miss him alot, I have no idea how to put it into prettier words, I just miss him like nothing else and I really wish this was just a very long and cruel dream. That I'll be waking up before I know it and I'll be shivering in bed of how vivid a dream that all was only to just put on a techno vid to feel better. In a way, deep down, I hope that's the case and I'm okay if the last year vanished before my eyes if it means that he's back and healthy. But that's not the case, this is our reality, my reality, and I miss him so much but at the same time I know I need to keep walking forward. Sometimes it makes it a bit easier to know that he loved and laughed so genuinely, that he loved the story that I loved, and he had so much to tell.
I'm not sure how long it'll take to make the sting go away and I'll be able to think or hear of him without feeling a bolt of denial and depression. But I know it'll get better, cause the knowledge that he loved and cherished him memory and all the time I had with him will always be worth it. I still don't regret clicking onto his channel in 2019, I still don't regret becoming curious seeing him kill tubbo, I don't regret listening to his skyblock videos while I played minecraft myself. I can't thank him for all the comfort he's brought me like I wish I could, one of my dreams was to eventually meet him once he beat cancer. Perhaps I would gotten him some piggy charms and a bracelet, that would've been cute, I would've spent alot of time making sure that he would've at least enjoyed it.
I can't do that now, but I have his plushies, his videos on my playlist, all the music and fic inspired by him, but god I miss him with a vicious longing. I have no idea what's on the other side or how death even works, not sure if I want to know tbh, but I really hope that I see him again one day if that's possible. I have no idea how or if it's even possible, but I would love for all of us to have a chance again of what we never got to see. I'm more than happy to relive this life beat by beat if it means I get to see him again and he survives, I'm okay with that.
I just miss him alot and Tommy's video and cyberknife just made today more hard than usual.
I don't know how to end this but, I loved him and I'm glad that he loved me in the only way he could.

girly rave in chengdu
went to a rave last weekend in chengdu.
it was fun!
i think it really hit home for me there how closed off from the outside (Western) world China has really become. in Taipei, techno events are usually at least half white Western expats (mostly European guys and rly young exchange students). this chengdu rave was like...almost all Chinese (mostly Szechuanese judging from dialect). except one German girl (why is there always a German?? any rave anywhere in the world???).
it was refreshing, actually, to be at a techno event where the vibe was not mid European guys holding drinks and their overdressed Taiwanese gfs vaping. it reminded me of my first rave, in nyc - a queer rave with a lot of open gay-ness, lesbians, trans people clearly there for the celebration of queerness as much as for the music. at this chengdu event there were a ton of lesbians. a lot of women in general actually -- more women than men, and both the DJs playing that night were women.
(reminded me of something my cousin said: apparently Szechuan is the province in China where women have the highest societal status and comparative equality to men, a factor that influenced Luis Vuitton's decision to open their China flagship in Chengdu??)
the vibe was very house party-esque -- felt like a close-knit community who knew each other well. a lot of ppl were there just to hang out rather than to dance/get wasted. little clusters of friend groups posted up outside the venue all night, gossiping n smoking n hugging n talking each other through gay heartbreak </3 .
i danced a lot and then wanted to chat w people but nobody really approached me :( i even did the thing where i bummed cigarettes as a way to enter a conversation but it did not work, people just gave me a cigarette silently lol. that's something i'm still not used to - the general standoffishness of Asian people at nightclubs. not that i find Americans at raves especially friendly, but i do think American raves (esp very gay ones) have more of a loose, chummy intimate feel -- you can randomly start dancing w strangers, vibing, hugging, whatever -- whereas Asians definitely respect each others' personal space on the dancefloor. it's something i miss a lot about nyc tbh.
the space was super small - two rooms, the smaller room was like the size of my living room in taipei. they had a brazilian DJ playing there and a cute cooler w juice boxes and chrysanthemum tea, etc. the bigger room had a local Chengdu DJ, an older lady, chainsmoking n getting rly drunk and the crowd was going HARD for her. like screaming for their favorite tracks and they were rly rly dancing. apparently they dance till sunrise at these things. there's no official end time it's just when ppl get too tired, usually 6 or 7am.
the one thing i disliked was how much ppl were smoking. they smoke A LOT here, like ppl were chainsmoking like crazy while dancing inside this tiny closed room, it was SOUPY w secondhand smoke. i was coughing the day after and i feel like it's still in my lungs now :'((( why do chinese ppl have to smoke so much???
i've been thinking about raving in general lately n my relationship to it -- there was a time like two years ago when i first started clubbing, when i really thought dancing n clubbing could be like...my meaning in life LOL. my salvation. i was inspired by david mancuso in the 70s, the infamous utopian loft parties, the subversive gay/black subculture that gave rise to techno, and i was hosting these cute!! DIY!! basement parties w my friends thinking that possibly RAVE COULD SAVE THE WORLD. or at least save...people like me? lesbian misfits seeking art n community??
these days i feel like so much older. like idk. maybe dancing n loud techno n drugs is just...dancing n techno n drugs?? you go out enough and everything starts to feel the same, the crowd around you gets younger and younger, you recognize the same characters on the dancefloor no matter where in the world it is.
i think i'm getting to a stage where i either need more out of clubbing (like, i'm craving a clubbing/dancing experience that's more overtly community-based and warm and intentionally uplifting) or maybe, clubbing is no longer satisfying my need for... whatever, a creative/energetic outlet, a sense of vibing and celebration with others.
(also: see this masterpiece of music journalism that describes the clubbing scene in chengdu)

Headcanons for SBI Sibling!Parrot Hybrid!Reader
(A/N): ope, went a little overboard with this one (also it’s not proofread, so sorry about any mistakes)
You have wings on your back (the feather pattern depends on what parrot floats your boat)
If you’re a Scarlet Macaw, Blue-and-Yellow Macaw, or Chestnut-Fronted Macaw, then you have black lines on your cheeks and heavy black lines around your eyes (think Hawks from bnha but less pointy)
If you are a Hyacinth Macaw, you have yellow markings around your eyes and mouth
If you’re a cockatiel, you have a killer mohawk/hair that is always very pointy and orange circles on your cheeks (how cute!)
I have a feeling that your hair is incredibly soft
Very sensitive wings
I feel like your teeth would be sharp and your nails would normally be fast-growing, long, and sharp
You tilt your head like impossibly far when you’re confused or trying to hear something better
Like your ear would almost be touching your shoulder
The head movements are very jerky and kinda just happen on their own when you hear something so you would have a lot of neck pain : (
You’re allergic to chocolate : (
I feel like people would underestimate you greatly and think you’re nothing except the ditzy comedic relief
Parrots are actually very intelligent
It bums you out to hear people say things like that behind your back when they think you can’t hear, but you try to not let them get to you
You give the best cuddles and are very affectionate with the people you’re close to (you’re also very cautious of strangers)
You’re also very in tune with the emotions of the people around you
You see someone sad? Head nuzzles and wing hugs
You see someone angry? You deescalate the situation the best you can and make sure they’re ok afterwards
You can dilate and contract your pupils rapidly at will
You may or may not stare at people doing it until they notice you staring or until they get creeped out
You fuck hard with any type of seed, nut, or fruit
When you get excited, it’s literally so cute??
Like you do everything parrots do
Little happy pitter patters with your feet, flutter your wings, your pupils contract and dilate rapidly, you make a ton of mob sounds
You’re easily excitable, hyper, and happy most of the time
It makes everyone happy to see you so excited so they would often go out of their way to get you things that make you happy
“Hey (y/n) I have some extra melon seeds if you want em!”
*Pupils contract and dilate rapidly*
You are loud
Like very loud
And very talkative
Like everyone knows where you are at all times
If you’re quiet and they know you’re around, either something is very wrong or they’re about to get pranked
God forbid you start to scream, your scream is loud enough to deafen someone for a brief amount of time and would leave everyone’s ears ringing for days on end
The mere mention of yours and Tommy's names together in one sentence is enough to give Philza a headache (someone give this poor man a couple of advils and a long vacation)
You two are literal demons when you’re together
Very chaotic relationship
You both like to fuck with people by sneaking up behind them
You would make mob sounds and Tommy would jump them before you two made a break for it
You and Tommy almost got killed by Techno a few times, but in your opinion the look on his face was 100% worth it every time
I feel like you would cart him up and down from the towers he builds
He could relate to being stereotyped as the stupid loud one, so he recognizes right away when you’re sad about it and will try to cheer you up
His main go to is the jukebox
Oh my god if he plays his jukebox around you, you go full send with your dancing
*AGGRESSIVE HEADBANGING*
He would laugh at your awful dancing, but he would join you eventually
Cat and Mellohi go hard
Speaking of music, Wilbur uses you as a walking soundboard
He needs a sound sample? You better prepare for spending most of your day recreating the sound
He needs back up vocals? You spend most of your day listening to his voice and other singers so you could replicate it
You don’t want to disappoint him so you try extra hard to appease his picky music composition
You kinda stress yourself out over it sometimes
When he notices (which he will, he’s very perceptive), he immediately calls it a day and has some sibling bonding time
You both bond over liking to eat strange things
Amazon macaws like to lick clay deposits on riverbanks so you like to have some on you at all times to lick when you get stressed
Wilbur carries some in a bag in his pocket and you carry a bag of sand 
Whenever one of you notices the other has a rough day, you give each other your respective stuff
You have to be sneaky with it though, Philza always takes away nonedible stuff from his children if he sees them trying to eat it (he has good intentions tho)
It always looks like a drug deal 
With Techno, I feel like he would find you incredibly annoying at first with how loud you are
He would actually start to hate you when you started to sneak up behind him 
It got to the point to whenever he would hear your voice he would get irrationally mad and have to leave the house for a few hours
He, like everyone outside your family, would think you were useless and incredibly stupid
That was until he passed Tommy’s room one day and overheard you crying and telling Tommy about your insecurities
He would spend the next few days ignoring you bc he felt bad
He would spend those days contemplating on why he treated you like he did
Coming to the realization that you were likely trying to get closer to him and you were just being yourself, making him feel like the biggest piece of shit
He totally had no idea how to confront you about this, so naturally he went to Philza (that man was literally so happy that his children were gonna start to get along)
He would spend the day gathering golden melons because he found out that you’d never tried golden melons before from Philza
When he approached you one day with an apology and some golden melons, you were suspicious at first
He hated you, so why would he get you these things if he didn’t need anything from you?
Quickly finding that his apology is genuine and he felt incredibly bad for treating you like that over the years
You picked up on his guilt pretty quickly and made quick work to reassure him
He would take you on short trips and would soon find that you’re very useful in detecting mobs and deterring creepers with cat noises
He would never admit it, but he loves it when you would scare Tommy or Wilbur, thinking it’s hilarious 
You also found out that carrying a seven and a half foot tall piglin hybrid was incredibly difficult to do, especially when flying
You two managed to get only about ten feet above the ground before your wings gave out under the strain and you fell on him
“(Y/n) has earned the achievement ‘When Pigs Fly’” flashed on everyone’s comm tablets that day
That wasn’t fun trying to explain to Philza
Philza would be ecstatic to have someone to fly with that he didn’t have to carry
He would take you on flights when you had too much energy 
Sometimes racing each other and competing to do tricks midair (which sometimes you both rope your brothers into judging)
Late night flights when you need to get your mind off from something
Watching the sunrise together in silence for once
Bonding over being able to see ultraviolet light when everyone else couldn’t
You always give him the shiny things you come across and he gives you your favorite snacks
He always fusses over your wings, sometimes preening them for you
Helping each other through molts
Matches your excitement sometimes when you’re really happy
You feel bad whenever you hear stories of how difficult you were as a baby
He’s quick to reassure you that raising you was worth it and you turned out to be a great person
But he wouldn’t be lying when he said you were a difficult infant
Your terrible twos stage? His literal hell
Philza swears he can still hear ringing from whenever you would throw tantrums as a toddler, even years after you left your toddler age
He also still has some scars from when you went through your biting phase (teething was awful for you, his poor baby)
But he’s happy he was the one that raised you, he genuinely enjoys your presence
If you’re in a really affectionate mood he is more than willing to let you cuddle up to him while he reads a book or something
WING HUGS WING HUGS WING HUGS WIN-
When he’s had a long day and is stressed out, you immediately pick up on that and do everything in your power to make sure your brothers are quiet and behaved, try to find out what made him so stressed, and sometimes go out of your way to take care of it for him
You try to be the one taking care of him for once as much because he’s taken care of you so well throughout the years
He can tell if you’re overwhelmed or upset just with one glance at your ruffled feathers and your rapidly dilating and contracting pupils
Immediately pulling you out of the situation and letting you talk it out
Whenever he finds you sad about your insecurities, he points out every part of your personality that he loves
That’s before he hunts down the person that made you feel like this (he really lives up to his title of ‘The Angel of Death’)
Overall, you wouldn’t trade your family for the world

I watched this really cute anime movie about a deaf girl recently, and it gave me an idea I thought you might like!!
What if Tommy had a kid (how he came upon the child is irrelevant) who was deaf? Music, especially the discs are a big thing for Tommy, so it’d be a big adjustment for him to realize “Oh yeah, they can’t hear this”. He learns sign language with a LOT of help from others cause he wants to be able to communicate with his kid, and he and his kid sometimes gossip and tease people using sign language cause aside from a few basic signs, no one really knows what those two are talking about; well..maybe Tubbo knows, only cause he was the one Tommy spent the most time learning sign with.
Bonus, what if when his kid’s a little older they decide they wanna hear the discs their dad talks about, so they ask Uncle Techno to help them craft something akin to hearing aids; but y’know with magic and stuff. And when they hear their dad’s discs for the first time they cry cause it’s even better than they ever could have imagined??
I just, I like the fluffy stuff!!
- from, an Anon Who Probably Has Cavities From All This Sweetness🍬🍭🍫
To Hear
Summary: Tommy cares for a deaf, child (Y/N).
Pairings:  Parental! Platonic! Tommy x Deaf! Child! Reader
Warnings: Swearing
A/N: Bruh, I was so excited to make this I did in a few hours. I have been thinking about this since you sent it in. I use some elements from Lost Ones but it’s soo not canon to my story.
*Any full sentences in Italics means they’re talking in Sign Language.*
 I hope you enjoy it ♥
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        Tommy didn’t know.
        How was he supposed to?
        He’d never met anyone that was deaf and didn’t know the signs. (Y/N) was also a baby when he first got her, not exactly like she could go, hey, I can’t hear.
        So, he didn’t know for ages. He really didn’t know what he was doing raising a baby, so when she wasn’t talking by the age of one, he thought it could be a normal thing. He was worried but it could be normal! Babies weren’t super smart after all.
        It was Wilbur that figured it out.
        When he had come to visit his brother and found out he had a baby, of course, they sat down and had a serious talk about it, said baby still happily playing with her toys despite the yelling earlier. After Wilbur realized his brother wasn’t going to simply give up this child, especially after a year of work, he decided he might as well accept it. So, he went over to the child and sat next to her.
        “Hi (Y/N).” Wilbur smiled lightly.
        The child didn’t react though, having not noticed someone was next to her. Wilbur frowned slightly at this and put a hand on her arm, making her look at him now.
        “Hi, little lady.” He greeted her again.
        She made little babbles to him as she turned back to her toys.
        “What words does she know?” Wilbur asked curiously, a small smile on his face again as he remembered when Fundy was a child.
        “Uh, none yet. I can’t get her to say any. She likes making sounds but not much else.” Tommy admitted.
        Wilbur looked at him surprised and Tommy knew now that this wasn’t normal if Wilbur had that face.
        “You said she’s one, right?”
        “Y-Yeah.” He nodded nervously.
        His little girl wasn’t saying words and Wilbur looked concerned. Had he screwed up with his little one?
        Wilbur looked back at (Y/N) though, his mind at work.
        “(Y/N).” He said, but she once more didn’t look at him. “Tommy, does she ever respond to her name?”
        “I mean, sometimes. Not all the time.”
        “When she does respond, are you right in front of her?” Wilbur looked up at him.
        Tommy thought about it before nodding slowly. “Yeah.”
        “Does she ever get scared by your yelling? Or anyone’s yelling for that matter. Loud noises?”
        “Not really, w-what has this got to do with anything?” Tommy questioned.
        “…Tommy, I think (Y/N)’s deaf.”
        Tommy stood there for a moment before shaking his head. “No, no, you’re wrong. She makes noises and things like that. She wouldn’t make them if she couldn’t hear them. And-And we relax to my discs all the time, they calm her down.”
        Wilbur stood up, putting a hand gently on his brother’s shoulder. “She’ll still make sounds, but she won’t be able to form words, Tommy. She would have said any sort of word before now. She can also feel vibrations, they probably feel nice but she can’t hear any of it.”
        At the moment, Tommy couldn’t form words as he stared at his brother trying to deny what he said, but…it made sense. Tommy could never get her to respond to her name. She never really seemed to care when he’d try and teach her how to speak. When he and Tubbo were being loud, she never even flinched. Even a small moment when he had been shouting and swearing profanities when she was napping came to mind as he remembered she never even woke up to that.
        “My baby’s deaf.” He whispered. “What…I…God, how didn’t I notice?!”
        “Calm down Tommy.” Wilbur took both of Tommy’s shoulders. “You’re a smart kid and you’ve been doing this for a year. You can figure it out and I’ll help you with it. I’m sure Tubbo will too.”
        From there, it was a lot for Tommy to process. He had just gotten used to the fact he was taking care of a child; now he had to think several steps ahead and make sure he was ready when she got older. It was a shock to his best friend as well, that felt stupid too for not realizing it sooner, and they both took steps to figure it out.
        There were countless days where instead of going out and adventuring, Tubbo and Tommy practiced having sign language conversations with each other. Other days, Tommy would try and teach (Y/N) simple sign words so she could now start to ask for what she wanted. The relief he felt when she actually started to pick up was immeasurable. He nearly cried when she signed dad to him for the first time without him teaching her.
        When L’Manberg was starting to be formed, he made sure everyone within their walls knew how to talk basics with his child in case she needed anything from them. Tommy never liked leaving (Y/N) with anyone but himself and Tubbo and Wilbur, but when war came, things changed and he had to make sure his baby was being taken care of properly.
        Somethings that Tommy did became said with the new thought.
        Tommy still did his daily ritual with (Y/N), sitting with her and listening to a music disc. His heart broke a little each time now though as when they listened together, he realized every time before he was the only one listening to them. She couldn’t hear a single note. That frustrated him to no end some days as he wished his baby could hear such beautiful sounds but there was nothing, he could do to change it.
        Years went on. L’Manberg was independent from the Dream SMP, Wilbur and Tommy were in power, Tommy had one of his discs back from Dream from a little scam, and (Y/N) was eleven years old.
        “Can we go see Uncle Tubbo?” (Y/N) asked Tommy.
        “Yeah, in a bit. Got to finish writing this for Wilbur. Bitch is so lazy.” Tommy smirked before going back to writing.
        Wilbur looked over at the sounds of (Y/N)’s giggles.
        “What are you doing Tommy?” He asked his brother.
        “Nothing Wilbur,” Tommy called to him.
        “He’s president, tell him to get off his lazy arse.”
        Tommy had to put a hand over his mouth as Wilbur raised an eyebrow.
        “What did she just say? She was going too fast for me.”
        “Just a stupid joke Wilbur.” Tommy grinned as he gave (Y/N) a subtle thumbs up.
        The older man shook his head as he went back to his potions as Tommy finished writing. Putting the book away, Tommy nodded his head for the door of the van and both he and (Y/N) left. She wore her own L’Manberg uniform as they walked down the path towards Tubbo’s home.
        “It still sucks his old house is gone. I liked it.”
        “Yeah, but what are you going to do when you have a power-hungry green bitch?”
        (Y/N) giggled again as they got to Tubbo’s house, Tommy barging in.
        “Tubbo!” He called.
        Tubbo poked his head out from where he was gathering up a few things and smiled.
        “Hey, Tommy! Hey (Y/N).” Tubbo greeted them.
        “Hi, Uncle Tubbo. Did you get any new bees?”
        “I did, they’re with the rest of the hive. You can go see them, just don’t scare them.”
        “I know. I’ll be back dad!”
        Tommy gave her a salute and she was gone.
        “She been doing ok?” Tubbo asked.
        “Yeah, she’s been pretty good.” Tommy grinned. “She talked shit about Wilbur in front of him and it was pretty funny.”
        “I still can’t believe you taught her to swear.” Tubbo shook his head as he went back to his chests.
        “It’s hilarious! No one else knows what we’re saying but you!”
        “That’s because I learned with you. If I hadn’t, I wouldn’t know either.” Tubbo reminded him. “Jack figure it out yet?”
        “No.” Tommy rolled his eyes.
        A few of the new members of L’Manberg and the Dream SMP struggled to remember (Y/N) was deaf and often startled her or would simply walk up to her and try and just simply talk. The little girl struggled with her deafness sometimes as she was different from everyone else. Tommy was always there to assure her though that she was fine the way she was.
        “But hey, I was thinking about how to get my disc back from Skeppy,” Tommy mentioned.
        “Oh yeah, what this time?” Tubbo asked.
        (Y/N) came back in smiling as Tommy and Tubbo were talking animatedly about their plan. She gave a simple clap to let them know she was there as she often did when she’d enter a room and no one noticed. They both looked over and motioned her over, talking about their plan instead in sign so she’d know what they were talking about.
        They were talking about the discs again and she frowned slightly. Her father loved playing discs when they were home and she liked feeling the music but she couldn’t help but always wonder what it was like to listen to what her father could hear. To know why he liked them so much that Dream would take them from him.
        A few months past and (Y/N) got herself a new uncle when he settled down close by to their homeland. Technoblade had come to see what his brothers were up to and decided to stick around for a while to see if their government got out of hand. (Y/N) wasn’t sure what that meant but she thought he was pretty cool.
        One of the coolest things was that he already knew rough sign language, having needed it for one of his travels. She thrilled for her father not have to teach someone once more the basics, instead Techno taught himself how to sign better and more advanced words so he could talk to her when she was around.
        She was around a decent bit of time.
        As Techno was now around, Tommy liked to spar with him and (Y/N) liked to watch her father’s skills at work. Alongside that, Techno told her a few stories about his travels or just stories with the sign he taught himself. He often also lent her books for her to read in her spare time.
        Tommy had never felt more grateful for his oldest brother.
        Sure, he couldn’t talk shit around Techno because he’d know what he was saying, but seeing (Y/N) smile to be able to talk to someone else made up for it.
        Today though, (Y/N) had to ask Techno for a favor. All of the boys and her were at Wilbur’s to just have some family time, so now was the perfect time.
        “Hey Techno.” (Y/N) stood nervously in front of him as Tommy was arguing with Wilbur in the kitchen.
        “Yeah?” He raised an eyebrow as he watched her.
        “You know how to do enchantments and stuff right?”
        “Yeah, I do quite a bit of it.”
        “Are you really good at it?”
        “I’d say so, why?”
        “I want to hear.”
        Techno leaned back in his seat watching her. She looked rather passionate about hearing.
        “Why?”
        She hesitated to move her hands. “Dad really likes his discs and I just.” She paused. “I want to hear what they’re like, even for a few moments to have something more with him.”
        Techno gave a small smile as he nodded. “Yeah, alright. I’ll work on something when I get home. You got to go into the kitchen right now though and curse Wilbur out.”
        “Easy! Deal!”
        A few moments later, Tommy was dying of laughter as Techno smirked in his seat as Wilbur demanded to know what (Y/N) was saying. Wilbur knew he should have been getting more lessons from Techno.
        It took Techno a few days but he managed to get small devices enchanted to hear for a few hours.
        “It’d take me a lot more work to get permanent hearing. That’s a long project and I’d need some help. But these will work for a few hours before they bug out.” Techno told her as she held them in her hands, having taken her to “watch her”.
        “Thank you so much Techno.”
        “It’s what I do. And I guess you can start calling me Uncle.”
        She grinned before putting the devices in her ears. For a moment, there was nothing, but that was because Techno made sure they were in a quiet place so she wasn’t overwhelmed. He waited before speaking.
        “So?”
        She jumped at the sound before smiling widely.
        “I can hear!”
        “Great, let’s go see Tommy.” He said as he signed along with his words.
        She wouldn’t know what each word would sound like, that would take more than a few hours, so she’d still have to see sign but that wasn’t the purpose of Techno’s work. They walked back to Tommy’s base and Techno knocked on the door as (Y/N) was looking around in amazement. Tommy flung the door open, grinning to see (Y/N) was already back.
        “You bored her already?” Tommy laughed, (Y/N) looking over as she smiled at the sound of her father’s voice.
        “No, I only needed her to see if what I made actually worked,” Techno told him as they went into the house.
        “And what the hell is that?” Tommy asked as he looked at (Y/N) as Techno’s back was turned. “How stupid was it?”
        (Y/N) giggled. “You sound pretty cool dad.”
        Tommy frowned, confused, as Techno leaned on a wall. “What does that mean?”
        “Uncle Techno helped enchant devices that let me hear for a few hours.”
        Tommy stood frozen for a moment before he snapped his head to Techno.
        “Is she serious?” He asked.
        “Dead serious.” Techno nodded.
        Tommy looked at (Y/N) and grinned, hugging her tightly.
        “You can hear!” He laughed, making (Y/N) cringe. “Oops, right. You’re not used to that.”
        “I’m ok.” She told him figuring he was feeling guilty.
        “She won’t understand words, remember.” Techno reminded his brother.
        “Right.” Tommy nodded. “There’s so many sounds you should hear. I don’t know where to start!”
        “Well, I asked Uncle Techno so I could hear your discs.”
        Tommy’s eyes went wide before he grinned taking (Y/N)’s hand and pulling her to the jukebox outside.
        “Wait right here.” He instructed her as he rushed back inside, Techno coming out lazily with a smile.
        Tommy ran back with a familiar purple and white-colored disc. He rested it on the jukebox before speaking to (Y/N).
        “This is Mellohi. It’s the disc I gave to Dream before I got it back. One of the discs I played for you all the time when you were a baby before I knew and even after. This is one of our discs.”
        Tommy picked up the disc again, taking a deep breath before putting it on. He sat next to (Y/N) on the bench as the song started to play. (Y/N) sat in amazement as she felt the familiar vibrations but also heard the sound it made. Tommy had such a wide smile as he wiped the corner of his eyes of tears as he watched (Y/N)’s reaction to one of their discs.
        She begged him to put on another and Tommy gladly brought out the rest of his collection, Techno having long ago left to see his mission accomplished. They spent those hours they had listening to their discs, Tommy telling Tubbo at one point and the other boy joining the two of them. The trio sat there until the enchantment ran out, but Tommy couldn’t be happier.
        His baby had heard their discs and he swore to himself that he’d help Techno with whatever he needed to make it permanent.

Mermaid Prince Wilbur with a siren!reader, aka Wilbur telling his family he now has a s/o(or wife)(could I also be ✨ Anon?)
Welcome, ✨ anon! hope you like this! One of my friends now treasures you. IM SO SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG I STARTED WORKING ON BOOKS IN OTHER SITES AND HAD TO MOVE AND A LOT HAS HAPPENED SINCE THEN.
⚠️CUSSING⚠️
pronouns: she/her or they/them [referred to as wife a few times]
Wilbur nervously played with the webbing between his fingers as he approached the large castle that belonged to his father, Philza Minecraft. It was odd, being so nervous. He wasn’t one to get anxious much, but this was about his significant other! If his family didn’t like his wife, then what was he to do? He valued them, but he also valued his brothers and father, too!
“Calm down, Bur,” you smiled, voice coming out rather chipper, similar to a bird tweeting. ““I trust you judgement, and if you speak so highly of your family, then I trust that they’re great people.”
“I’m not worried about that, I’m more worried about what they’ll think about our relationship-”
“Bur, don’t worry about it. We haven’t even walked through the gate!” You brought a webbed hand up to his face and gently caressed his cheek, your grin never leaving, ““I just want to let you know that if they don’t like me, I’m not gonna change for them. Got it?” The brown haired mer-prince slumped forward into your hand, the gills at the side of his neck fluttering and a lovesick smile washing over his face.
“This is why I love you.”
““I love you, too, but the guards need you to identify yourself.” The fish man straightened up, face a bit warmer than before, and he clarified his name to the guards, who hummed and opened the gate just enough for you and your lover to swim in.
“I always forget how beautiful this place is. Everytime I come back, this place keeps looking more and more like something from those human . . . films?” You hummed in agreement, grabbing his hand and swimming forward.
“I just wanna meet your family!” Wilbur rolled his eyes, waving to the guards who seemed familiar with him, and pulled you inside.
“Dadza! Mumza! Tommy! Techno!” He called, and, like a school of fish, a young boy appeared, screeching.
“Wil! You’re back!” He tackled your boyfriend, causing him to let out a yell with the same energy.
“Tommy!” You ‘stood’ to the side, watching with a smile as the two interacted. 
“Techno! Phil! Come in here, Wil’s back!”
“Wilbur’s back?” A voice with an American accent asked, and the sound of jewelry clinking together came from one of the halls. “Ayyy! Wilbur, nice to see you again- is that the siren you’ve been talking about for the past few months?” You turned to Wilbur with a sly expression, watching as he slowly flushed.
“You’ve been talking about me to your family for months?” You teased, noticing how he shot Techno a glare. ““Bur, that’s so cute!”
“Love? Ew.” Tommy grimaced, slowly moving himself away from the two of you, ““The only love I wish to see is the Queen’s love toward me.”
““We really have to ban him from any form of the human world. I’m sorry if he says anything, I will hit him as a form of punishment.” The pink haired mer- was he some sort of pig too? That’s fucking sick!
“Bur, I like that guy.”
//
A few moments passed and you had begun to converse with Techno. He had begun to tell stories of him and Philza, who had once been a regular mer-folk before becoming who he was now.
“-speakin’ of accidental run-ins, we met his wife when he was searchin’ for treasure all the way back near the shore of L’Manburg. He was a mess.” 
“Aww! That reminds me of when me and Bur met. I was looking around for little human trinkets and he happened to be singing this tune I had never heard any of my people sing. It was confusing, but I didn’t want to interrupt and ended up watching him do a one man musical for almost two hours.”
“That makes a lot more sense than him stumbling upon you singing above water for some reason.” Techno hummed, bringing a hand up on his chin.
“What did he say about our meeting?”
“He just said he found you singing on a beach and was so enchanted that he just decided to ask you out on the spot.” You laughed loudly, shaking your head.
“Oh, not at all. It took him weeks to do that. Poor guy was always stumbling over his words and kept quoting ‘Hamilton’.”
Safe to say you and Techno got along.
//
Next thing you knew, the blond boy known as Tommy had gotten in your face, asking you if you were a real siren. You laughed at his feverish questions, though you nodded. He gasped and grabbed your shoulders, looking like a child who finally got a toy car for his birthday.
“That’s so fucking cool! Do you sing? Can you sound like a bird? Is it true that-”
“Calm down. Let’s start with introductions. I’m [Y/N], a siren who’s also your brother’s significant other. You are?”
“Tommy Innit, mer-man, prince, and wife haver.” You smiled, holding your hand out for a hand shake. He gaped at the gesture before slowly grabbing your hand and shaking it. ““I have just touched someone who is not a man but a siren. PHIL! I JUST TOUCHED A SIREN.”
He was very lively, huh?
““Tommy! Keep it down, I just got up from a nap and Kristin’s still- when did we get a guest?”
IT’S YOUR BOY, PHILZA MINECRAFT.
//
“It’s nice to meet you, [Y/N]. I sincerely apologize for any inappropriate behavior caused by any of my sons.” A tall mermaid with a motherly nature smiled down at you, “I’m so glad you and Wilbur decided to join us for dinner.”
“It’s a pleasure to meet you, as well, Kristin. I don’t mind any behaviors of your sons, I put up with one of them on the daily.” You joked, causing the woman to tilt her head back a chortle.
“I hope you enjoy your stay here,” Phil stood up, tilting his body around his tall wife to smile at you, “If any of them have made any offensive comments-”
“I JUST WANTED TO KNOW IF THEY COULD SING THE WORSHIP AND PRAYER SONG.” Tommy screeched, face going red. 
““AND YOU THOUGHT THAT WAS APPROPRIATE?? JUST BECAUSE THEYRE A SIREN, THAT DOESN’T GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO ASK THEM TO DO THAT.” 
““BOTH OF YOU BE QUIET!” Kristin boomed, glaring down at the two bickering blonds. ““I’m so sorry, would you like some dessert before you leave?”
“Yes please! That would be lovely!” You turned to your curly headed bitch boy, ““I just wanna say that if I end up having your last name, I think they’ll be absolutely ecstatic.”
They’d be screaming in joy in a few moments then, hm?

AE Ficlet
Techno was clearly not looking forward to tonight. One might think he was preparing for some great battle with how sour his expression was and, in a way, he was.
Yes, the great battle of dressing in fine clothes, drinking fine wine, and talking to other finely clothed officials drinking fine wine.
Truly a battle for the ages.
Though Emperor Technoblade was comfortable in a battle of sword and bloodshed, he was not sure of his place amongst the people who were likely stepping into the ballroom at that exact moment.
He was a warrior, a general, the leader of armies whose soldiers spanned miles when standing shoulder to shoulder.
He didn’t know what he was doing.
“You’re gonna be fine, mate”, Philza said as he pulled his fellow emperor’s hair into a series of braids, “You don’t even have to mingle that much!”
“Phil”, Techno hissed as Phil pulled a bit too sharply on his hair, “I don’t know how many times I have to tell you this, but I don’t know how to ‘mingle’.”
“I know how to mingle”, Wilbur shouted from his, rather obvious, hiding spot beneath Philza’s bed.
Techno stifled a laugh and caught Phil’s gaze through the mirror, “Ah yes, the great Prince Wilbur. Perhaps you, in your infinite wisdom, could impart upon I, a lowly emperor, your divine knowledge of how to talk to stuffy officials.”
Wilbur crawled from beneath the bed and skittered towards his father and uncle, nearly crashing into the vanity had it not been for one of Phil’s wings slowing him.
“All you gotta do”, Wilbur began.
“Have to do”, Philza gently corrected.
“Shush dad I’m teaching”, the boy continued, “Is talk about trades and tell them you like their weird pets.”
“Very insightful, Wilbur”, Phil said as he finished Techno’s hair.
“Yes, thank you Wil”, Techno murmured as he grabbed his and the boy’s crowns from the vanity, putting on his own before placing Wilbur’s silver circlet delicately in brunet curls.
Phil moved to the door and motioned for the others to pass through, “Come on mates, time to suffer by way of stuffy assholes.”
“I won’t suffer”, Wilbur said to Techno in a conspiratorial whisper, “But they will.”
A smirk rose to the elders face and he shook his head before ushering the prince and his fellow emperor down the hall towards the ballroom. At the very least, either Philza or Wilbur would make tonight interesting.
Hopefully it wouldn’t be too bad.
~~~~~~
It was just as bad as Techno expected it to be. In fact, it was worse.
Not only had he gotten many bribe offers to join the war efforts of places he had no care for, but people seemed to have forgotten his aversion to anything that even remotely involved excessive interaction.
Essentially, people were asking him to dance.
At every turn, someone would approach with an outstretched hand and a small grin, “Care to dance, Emperor Technoblade?”, “Have a few moments for a dance, your Majesty?”, “Emperor, could you spare a few minutes to dance with me?”
After the twentieth offer, Techno had fled to take refuge on his throne. Thankfully the guards were well versed in his moods and kept the visiting courts away from him.
Every once in awhile a member of his own court or a servant would approach with a message or snack but, for the most part, he was left to people watch.
After an hour or two of peace, Philza seemed to take it upon himself to pull Techno from his comfortable seat that conveniently kept him away from others .
The other Emperor approached their thrones casually but, instead of sitting, he offered his hand to Techno, “Come on Tech, you haven’t danced with me yet.”
Techno tried to look for some kind of escape. He began glancing around in hopes of seeing Wilbur getting into some kind of trouble. Sadly it seemed that one of his generals, Pete, had a part to play in this whole ploy and Wilbur was being distracted.
Normally, the Emperor would simply decline the offer as he’d done to many others that night.
But, it was Philza. So Technoblade rose from his simple throne on the dais and took the offered hand.
He noticed small grins grow on the faces of his servants and court, they always thought it was hilarious when Phil forced him to join in on festivities.
“Don’t worry”, Phil whispered, “No one is gonna care that you’re dancing. They’re just gonna be a bit surprised or happy if they notice at all.”
Techno huffed, pulling away before he turned to face his friend, holding out his hand for the man to take again.
The choreography was drilled into his mind from years of practice, this was an old formal elytrian dance that Phil had taught him maybe a hundred years prior. It was on of the few waltzes that they were both good at.
Techno pulled Phil in a spin towards him before letting him move away again, another twirl and the two were facing each other with the back one of Techno’s forearms pressed to one of Philza’s.
A small bow from both men and they began walking around one another. Moving towards each other and away again every eighth step or so with a twirl being thrown in occasionally.
Philza had told him, once and long ago, that the dance was called “The Orbital Waltz”. Typically it had been used at ceremonies and festivals that were dedicated to life and relationships.
Done between partners or close friends as a visual representation of their bond. The dancers would move around one another, pulling away and then returning to their previous closeness. The dance signified that, no matter the trials they went through, the pair would return to be together again. Two halves of a whole, two beings revolving around one another for eternity.
The song began to slow, signaling the end was nearing and Techno pulled Philza in one last time before resting his chin on the elytrian’s head.
“Can I go sit down now”, he muttered, not nearly as bitter sounding as he wished he could pretend to be.
“Not quite, Wil wanted a dance too”, Phil said, pulling away as Pete approached with the child.
“Phil, he’s literally half asleep”, Techno whispered as he lifted a clearly exhausted Wilbur from Pete’s arms.
“Just hold him and sway mate”, Phil replied before turning away towards a call of his name, “Damn, I’m being summoned. I think they found the frog I hid.”
The elytrian took off, moving quickly away from the shouts for him and Techno rolled his eyes at the man’s antics. The amount of trouble Phil could get into always amazed him.
A sleepy murmur pulled his attention down to the small boy in his arms, “You okay there Wilbur?”
The boy grumbled before straightening up a bit, “Dad put a frog in Lady Kain’s coat but I told him he shoulda saved it for Lord Deez.”
Techno chucked before pulling Wilbur further up into his arms, swaying with the music as he tried to lure the boy to rest, “I still don’t understand why you dislike Lord Deez so much, he’s never been anything other than polite to you.”
“That’s why”, Wilbur said before burrowing his face into Techno’s shoulder and causing the rest of his words fall unheard.
The Emperor laughed and continued to sway the young boy in his arms, occasionally catching the eye of one of the members of his court. As Philza said, there was only surprise and quiet happiness to be found on their faces.
Maybe tonight hadn’t been as horrible as it could’ve been.
If he ignored the sound of Philza’s frantic laughter as the Emperor dropped all pretense of maturity and grace to run away from a soaked and sputtering Lord Deez, then it could almost be perfect.

Nachos: I LOVE THIS THANK UUUU SO MUCH ITS SO CUTE🥺
