— NOT MUCH LONGER
Tumblr media
summary : wilbur has always been dedicated to his viewers, sometimes too much. his fans are aware of this, you are aware of this, and he is aware of this. so when you go multiple days without seeing your boyfriend because of how hard he's working you take matters into your own hands, not realising that thousands of people are there watching you do it.
genre : fluff
warnings : mentions of eating/food, a few swearwords, wilbur not taking care of himself, very small panicky moment
pairing : cc!wilbur soot x fem!reader
pronouns : she/her, reader is called wilbur's girlfriend/wife
featuring : cc!wilbur soot
requested : Could you do a fic where the reader isn’t a very public person (in regards to the internet) and one day, wilbur’s streaming and she goes in and brings him some food and kisses him, not knowing he was live, and when she notices, she just gets all red and embarrassed and wilbur goes out of frame with her and its just all fluffy, and the chat goes craaazy
word count : 1.3K
note : hi lmao. i know, i know it's been nearly 2 months since i 've posted anything. school really caught p to me, i was so stressed out i was crying like multiple times a day for a few weeks. i wanna thank you guys for your patience, i have one more week of classes before spring break and then exams are right after that so i am really unsure of how much free time i'm gonna have until like mid-november.

There was a lot of things that you loved about Wilbur. Of course there was, the two of you had been together since university, nearing on 5 years. Knowing for someone that long, though, and there were obviously aspects of your boyfriend that you were less than fond of. There weren’t a lot, but the main one was the fact that he was a major workaholic. 
You were completely understanding of how important his job was to him. He had been doing it longer than you’d even known each other and you’d never want to do anything to make it seem like you were anything less than supportive. 
But the last couple of weeks had been driving you crazy. 
He’d be out all day filming for twenty different videos or in the studio - that was fine, you had your own work and hobbies to keep you occupied. But then he’d get home and it was straight to editing, or writing, or meetings for merch, album art, new videos. It had gotten to the point where you hadn’t even seen him in two days. You knew he’d been home, you vaguely heard the shower running while you were asleep, so tired you couldn’t bring yourself to lift your head. Clothes had been added to the laundry hamper, and water glasses had been added to the sink. He’d messaged you, of course. You were high on his list of priorities, it being a no-brainer that whenever he got a free minute he was texting you to let you know where he was going, promising that he’d be home soon.
When you got home from work, you were pleasantly surprised to find his docs at the front door, neatly kicked to the side so they were out of the way along with the rest of your collective pile. You put your stuff down and practically floated around the house, searching for your boyfriend. Not in the kitchen, though the dishes had been done for you, left to dry. Not in the living room, though there was a coat draped over the back of the couch that you picked up and deposited in the bedroom (also empty, but his side of the bed was rumpled like he’d fallen straight on top of the blankets). 
You were walking down the hallway when you finally heard him. He was talking softly, not outside of the norm for him. His office wasn’t soundproof, and you often heard him through the walls as you went about your day, whether that was laughing loudly as he streamed, or the muffled sound of him strumming his guitar, trying to write a new song. He was being quiet, probably editing a video. You knew he had his own room in the group office, just for him to edit, but he liked to bring them home sometimes. 
You went back into the kitchen to dry the dishes for Wilbur and you noted that there weren’t any new plates added to the pile. You knew that Wilbur had eaten while he was gone, he’d texted you every time they ordered food, but you also knew that it had been a couple of days since his last home cooked meal. You, admittedly didn’t have much in the pantry, but it was made with love, which was the thought that counts. 
That was the thought on the tip of your tongue as you knocked gently on the door, a plate of mac and cheese and a glass of water in hand, smile breaking out at the sight of your boyfriend at his desk. 
Wilbur’s viewers had always been aware that he had a girlfriend. He mentioned you for the first time after you guys had been together for a year, and since then you were a sporadic presence in his online life, maybe a mention every couple of weeks or months. They didn’t know anything else though, not even your name. His viewers, over the past couple of years had developed their own nicknames for you. It started from one of the first streams you were mentioned in, someone in chat asked if you were Wilbur’s wife. He’d laughed, said no, and then tried to say you were not his wife, and instead pronounced it “wiff.” It got slightly out of hand over the years, with most people lovingly referring to you online as wiffleball. Wilbur had apologised profusely for the slip up, but you found it too funny to actually care. It was definitely weird for you to see, though, the phrase ‘Wiffleball’ randomly trending every couple of months. 
So, they didn’t know your name, and they definitely didn’t know your face. Wilbur was usually on high alert for even your footsteps outside the door, let alone you wanting to come inside. He’d yell that he was live, and you’d wait dutifully at the door for him to come outside. It was more for your sake than his, but he cared just as much about your right to privacy as you did. But today, he was so preoccupied with the fact that he hadn’t seen you in nearly three days that he completely forgot to. 
The monitor with his own face in it was tilted away from the door, and you were so entranced by the smile on his face that you didn’t notice until it was too late. He was standing to meet you, pressing a kiss to the corner of your mouth. “Hi, lovely, I’ve missed you.”
“Missed you too, Wil,” Your hands were on his arms the second you placed the food down, and you were right about to kiss him properly when you saw a fast movement out the corner of your eye. His chat was whizzing by so fast that you almost couldn’t read it. You backed out of frame immediately, almost out of instinct, wide eyes meeting Wilbur’s. “You’re streaming?”
“Fuck,” Wilbur made sure that you were definitely out of the frame before putting his stream back on the loading screen and going back to check on you.
Your breathing was much faster than usual and he could all but see your heart jumping out of your chest. “I am so sorry, darling, I was too busy being happy to see you that I completely forgot that I was even streaming. Are you okay?”
Your hands found Wilbur’s shirt, clenching it between your fists and burying your face in the fabric across his chest. His hands were securely on your back as he held you while you calmed your breathing. You weren’t crying no, he could tell you just needed to slow your breaths down and you’d be alright. He was whispering reassurances in your ear and within a few minutes your heart had calmed down. “I’m alright.”
“I’m so sorry,” Wilbur launched immediately into apologies again but your vice grip on his shirt stopped him.
“I’m alright, Wilbur.” You strangely were alright. What you could see on the chat were all nice things, they were all so excited to see you. “Never want to go back on your stream again, but I’m okay with them seeing me.”
“You don’t have to be okay, love, if you’re not. I’ll get the VOD taken down when I’m done and edit you out and say something about not circulating the video, I am so sorry-”
“I’m fine, Wilbur.” You pulled the fabric closer to your chest, the movement effectively silencing him. “Like I said. I am still good not showing up on your streams and stuff, but you can leave the video up. I’m alright with it, I promise.”
He softened at your determined face. “I love you,” he said in place of another apology. “I love you, and I am still sorry that I forgot to tell you. No more until you say so, I promise.”
“Thank you,” you said earnestly, loosening your grip on his shirt. “I’ll let you finish up now, do you think you’ll be a while?”
Wilbur kissed you softly before sitting back in his chair and looking up at you full of love. “Trust me, I definitely won’t be much longer.”

Currently in class but I just wanted to show this.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
How does Dream apologize better than Wilbur soot for something he hasn’t even done?
And he’s right.
Wilbur shouldn’t be afraid to say Shelby’s name, and he’s a fucking coward for that.
Again, if it hasn’t showed enough, this is NOT a safe space for Wilbur soot defenders. DNI if you are a defender. DNI if you want Philza and Tommyinnit to speak out immediately too.
Billzo has stated he’s watched his friends be manipulated by Wilbur, Tommy was most likely one of them considering how close they were.
Tumblr media
And let’s not forget, Wilbur PUSHED the family dynamic on the other sleepy bois. Tommy looked up to that man. He saw him as a brother. He was there for that GROWN ASS 27 YEAR OLD MAN when his lazy ass couldn’t get out of bed. Let’s all remember that Tommy is currently 19 as well, let that sink in, they met when Tommy was around 14-16?
That’s when you’re the most impressionable, especially since Tommy had looked up to him since before they met. He had to have been around like 16-18 when he was out here fucking taking care of this man in his mid (now late) twenties.
Whatever you may think about the creators that don’t speak out right now, I’d just like to say that the ones who were the closest to him are gonna have a hard time with this.
And stop spreading around proof of Wilbur’s red flags from Tommy’s videos. Knowing how these situations can be handled, he could be beating himself up over the fact that he didn’t see something sooner. Don’t even say “oH wElL hE sHoUlD’vE” he was a fucking kid, a kid brought up by the internet. Don’t go pressuring him either, he got surgery about a week ago.
With that in mind and finally out of my system, support Shelby Shubble, give her all the love and support that you can right now. She is brave for speaking out.
My blog is a safe space for victims, for people going through it right now. My heart goes out to the victims who have spoken out, and the ones who have lost their voice. You all deserve love, you deserve better than what the world has given you.
I wish you all a good morning, good afternoon, and a goodnight.

Okay but Wilbur going back to utah, from the perspective of someone who knew him before, is fucking hilarious.
Like, imagine your coworker goes missing for about two years, and then he just suddenly wanders out of the desert one day, looking forty when you know he's only in his mid twenties. And then he tells you this batshit insane story about revolutionary wars and dying and a train station and being brought back to life by a false god, and then he just???? Decided to come back???
You'd probably think he was eating hallucinogenic plants for two years or some shit, and be thoroughly confused on how no wild animals ate him in that time.

I will always be a stanch supporter of tntduo being about a decade or two older then they are "canonically."
c!quackity Is a vertaren whore way past his young dumb full of cum era, and deep into "thirty still flirty." he has his divorce papers framed. he has anger issues, and is an unethical capitalist liberal who's contradictorily only nice to customer service workers, tubbo, and drunk girls in bars. hes been getting wrinkles in his brow bridge from dealing with wilburs bullshit. a momtrepenur. (tubbo, trust guys trust.)
c!wilbur is a ciggarete mom, absent father figure, and probably needs viagra and therapy. his back hurts when its going to rain, he has had several cavities filled and a few that hes been meaning to get fixed. his teeth are yellow and hes worn the same shitty coat that smells like his unwashed ass for twenty fucking years and he dives into bushes whenever he sees his son.
quackity is in his mid 30s and wilbur is in his 40s
Ok but I absolutely love that

tbh this is why i cant really ever see wilbur as in his late thirties/forties. like if i know ccwilbur himself said so, and that its a widely accepted thing in this fandom, and like i dont have a problem with it because i can definitely understand why people would interpret it that way but i just cannot make myself see him that old
like yeah he spent thirteen years in limbo but were those really years? did he actually Live thirteen years? it was just six months for everyone else and really all he did was just. exist. in a void. he doesn't have the maturity an actual middle aged adult would have, in lots of ways he still acts a lot like he's in his mid-late twenties.
everyone else changed and grew during the time he was gone and ironically, while he's the one who supposedly had over a decade to grow during that time while others had months, it feels like he's the one who's stuck the most at the age he was on november 16th
and i think it's especially evident in how he contrasts other characters, like when you see ctntduo do you think "oh yeah thats a 22 year old and a 40+ year old" ?? like obviously age isnt the only or most important determinator in a relationship, but it's clear when you see them interact that they're on a much more equal footing in terms of life experience than they would with that age gap.
but also i get the appeal of scruffy pathetic man in his forties. im not opposed to dilf cwilbur let that be said. in fact i am very for it

Heyy, can you do c!SBI being Reader’s new neighbors in a modern AU? Platonic please :] (and more specifically, if you want: Techno, Wil, and Reader are in their early twenties, Tommy is around 15-17, and Phil is… old LMAO, prolly late 30s or 40s)
If you don’t want to do it is fine btw !!!
★C!sbi being readers new neighbour★
a/n: hi anon! This took me some time, but i was able to get it done, i did headcanons and small drabbles of all 4 and this is entirely platonic! And sorry wilburs drabble is a bit shorter than he rest, i don't watch him much
pronouns: you/yours
requested: yes/no
TW: Cussing and swords?
.
.
C!Philza:
•He first first met you when you were struggling to bring in a fair amount of groceries
•He was the one who introduced himself and his sons to you
•He invited you over once he realised that they're your new neighbour
•He also told Tommy to not be rude
•He also accidentally knocks things over with his wings
•His wings seemed a bit..weird at first not to mention how huge they were
•But you eventually got use to them once you went over to they're house constantly
•However your clothes may have a few small feathers in them, which are a dark grey considering his age
•He also lectures Tommy for cussing a lot, which you can hear all the time
•And you also hear a bunch of random noises from him at random times
•Usually his random bird noises
•But you may also need to help the old man finding his stuff since he's kinda blind
•Also helping him find his bucket hat finds someone (Tommy) likes to hide it. A lot
You stared at the amount of groceries you had, maybe you shouldn't have bought so many but you got distracted while shopping. But what caught your attention was the moving truck that was outside the house next door to you. The house has been vacant for a while since the old owners found a better place, but the house was fairly nice. You started grabbing your groceries to bring them inside when a man approached you, he looked a to be in late thirties to mid forties. "Hey uh do you need help bring your groceries inside? I don't mind help" He said as he stood beside you. "Uh yes please, also are you moving in to that house?" You replied as you put down the groceries and pointed to the house next to yours. "Yes i am actually, with my three sons, also my names Philza" He replied as he brought the remaining groceries near your front door. "Well nice to meet you Philza, I'm [name], and thanks for helping me!" You stated
.
.
.
C!Wilbur:
•He was the one who told phil you were struggling with groceries in the first place
•The most odd thing was that he collected guitars. A lot of them
•Like, guitars from the early 1920's type of guitars from different places around the world
•He accompanied Tommy when Phil told him to go just incase Tommy chocked out
•He showed you his guitar collection when you came over
•He kept asking you where things were in the city since his family didn't know anyone else
•Since the first night, you can hear him and Tommy fighting about the most random stuff
•He'll introduce you to his 'twin', techno
•Since he's only been in the neighbourhood for a week when he introduces you to techno, he may ask you to come with him when he's going somewhere so he doesn't get lost
•He will also scold Tommy for being rude to you at first
•"Oi Tommy knock it off you gremlin" is what you probably hear when you go over there for the first time
•He's probably the most polite excluding Phil when you first meet
•However when you come over (since Phil insisted first up), he'll be the one to strike up conversation with you until the awkwardness is gone
"Hey [name] before you go do you wanna check out my guitar collection before you go? A fair amount of it is vintage" He said as he cut Infront of Tommy who was talking to you a second ago. "Uh yeah sure but what about Tommy?" You replied confusingly. "Hey Tommy i think phil was asking you to tidy up your room, so why don't you listen to him and do it?" Wilbur said as he faced Tommy. "Fine." Tommy replied in spite and not long after Tommy left, Wilbur took you to his room where his guitar showcase was, everything was sorted into decades, from the early twenties to the current time.
.
.
.
C!Technoblade:
•He didn't speak to you first up until Wilbur introduced you to him
•He has this..interesting vibrant pink coloured hair which was slightly faded at the roots
•He appeared to have these pointy tusks that came from his bottom jaw
•He collects a bunch of old blades of all sorts
•He's the most chill out of all 4 of them, once he trusts you enough he'll show all of them to you and when you first come over he may or may not show you a few swords that are more modern
•While the rest of the sbi sleeps downstairs, to sleeps upstairs because it's less noisy, so expect to see him from your windows just reading a book
•When you first come over, he'll start talking about mythology from all around the world and ask if you know anything about mythology
•If you do, he'll strike up conversation about that certain mythology you know about
•He'll feel more comfortable around you since your around his age, so expect a lot of "It's stuff only adults understand, into it [name?]" When Tommy tries to ask about something
•If you don't know about mythology he'll teach you about the basics of it
•He won't scold Tommy but he'll tell him to stop being rude since they're new to the neighbourhood and you've been her longer than they have been
.
•And he's also a bit awkward at first until he's use to you
Technoblade recently invited you to his room so he could show his blades to you, although he got a bit carried away when talking about the origins of a certain blade that came from a famous Greek soldier. "Books say the sword he owned was connected to the Greek god, Ares-" He rambled before the got distracted by another sword "Oh and this one has originally came from a Romen empire while they were at war, The sword was owned by they're ruler" He continued. Eventually you asked how he knew so much about these swords "Well, Phil had them before he gave them to me, and also, Tommy wasn't rude to you when he first invited you over was he?" He spoke up. "Well he was a bit rude but he wasn't too bad" You replied as you recall the interaction you had with the youngest a bit over a week ago.
.
.
C!tommyinnit:
•He first caught your attention when he was yelling at Wilbur about how he should get the biggest room since he's the better sibling out of the 3
•He then later was forced- or in his words at least, to invite you over
•Which he avoided until Wilbur went with him
•He was a bit blunt, snarky and slightly rude which got him a slap on the head from Wilbur
•And later got him a lecture from Philza which you could hear most the night
•But once you came over and he got comfortable with you, he was a lot more polite and vocal
•Even if he did comment on how 'old' you were
•But over all he was a polite kid (which he hated being called since he was a man according to himself)
You heard a knock on your front door, and as you opened it, you saw 2 people, someone around your age and someone younger who looked to be around 16. "Uh yeah hi, We wanted to know if you wanted to come over one night" The younger one said, Who you were assuming is Tommy, the youngest one Philza told you about. "And who may you two be?" You asked curiously just incase you got them confused for someone else. "Tom. And this bitch is Wilbur" He said quite bluntly as he received a side eye from Wilbur then a slap on the head from him. "Tommy don't be so rude." Wilbur replied as he smacked his younger brother on the head. "Well uh- sure i love to!" You chirped, ignoring Tommy who was cussing at Wilbur.

bones bonesandthebees. please. I need to know more about stars!quackity, he is so very much my beloved guy. I know he's only in the story for a short while but he takes up so much space in my brain. he is so cool To Me. (also this is /not forced and very light hearted u of course do not Need to do anything <<333 I just wanted to lay on ur doorstep for a minute and wail about stars!q)
hmm what can I tell you about stars!quackity
well remember how in the epilogue wilbur notices quackity and schlatt are sitting next to each other at the coronation? they're not old friends if that's what you thought. they're bitter (kind of) exes but also quackity wanted to go to the coronation so he called schlatt up and was like "you're invited to this you fucking owe me so get me in the door." also he definitely once hired a hitman to try and kill schlatt after they first split but then schlatt went and got elected as president of an entire planet so quackity knew that was never gonna work out. they're also still kind of friends in a very weird "well we still have fun shit talking people together" kind of way
although quackity has his fingers in a few different types of business, for some of his smuggling he has a crew and a ship he runs to transport, uh, special deliveries between planets. his crew includes charlie, purpled, and fundy (las nevadas boys). in that chapter where quackity punched wilbur, before their confrontation quackity was on the phone with someone. I never got to mention who, but in my mind I always knew he'd been talking to charlie about something related to their smuggling business stuff lol
I don't think I ever specified how old stars!quackity was in the main story, but he's roughly around the same age as wilbur. the tattoos and the scar makes him look older than he is though, so most people think he's somewhere in his mid twenties (including phil and techno). he started working in the smuggling business when he was 13 and had his own ship and crew by the time he was 16. then he started working with phil when he was somewhere between 17-18ish, but phil had zero clue quackity was as young as he was. I don't think he finds out how old quackity is until both he and wilbur are somewhere in their early to mid twenties, and then phil has a slight crisis realizing his main black market informant was still a kid when he started working for phil
I hope that satisfied your curiosity! I love stars!quackity he was so much fun to write

okay everyone, please hear me out: dreambur age swap sugar daddy au.
dream as this really talented coder in his mid to late twenties, ceo of his own it company that he founded only a few years ago but is already allowing him to earn millions.
and wilbur, a bit younger and just out of university with a degree in music and no prospects for a job that gives him the chance to do anything with it. to afford rent for the apartment he shares with his friends tommy and niki, he works as a barista during the day and performs at little cafés and pubs at night.
during one of these nights, dream is out with his co-workers and friends, karl and sapnap, and notices the guy with the amazing voice and the pretty face playing on the little makeshift stage. he's instantly interested, and when wilbur's done and sits down at the bar for a moment, dream strikes up a conversation.
they're both a bit shocked by how well they get on; dream surprised that someone like wilbur would talk to a suit-wearing, stuck-up looking guy like him while wilbur struggles with the idea that such an attractive older man is showing an interest in what he has to say.
he feels so comfortable that he eventually tells dream about his financial struggles and how he wishes he could focus more on his music. and dream doesn't even think twice before offering to help him.
of course, wilbur is skeptical at first, knowing that something like that could come with conditions he's not alright with. but dream genuinely just wants to support this talented musician he just met, and in the end, wilbur says yes. they exchange numbers and promise to meet up soon to work out an agreement.
what they settle on is easy: they meet two or three times a week, wilbur showing dream new songs and things he's been working on, and in return, dream pays his rent, food, and necessities, allowing wilbur to shorten his work hours (he insisted on keeping his job to not be completely dependent on dream).
their meetings start out like planned; strictly music related and in public places. but slowly, they grow closer and closer, moving from coffee shops to dream's penthouse and allowing their conversations to shift from songwriting to more personal stuff, dream telling wilbur about how he grew up in poverty and how one of the main reasons for why he built his company was to give his family a better life. and in turn, wilbur opens up about his fear of never reaching his goals and how scared he is of his music not being good enough.
over hours spent laughing and crying together, they fall in love with each other.
and neither tells the other.
because dream is worried that wilbur is only going to pretend to reciprocate his feelings so he doesn't lose dream's money. because wilbur doesn't want to pressure dream into giving him more than he already does.
and the thing that brought them together in the beginning might be what tears them apart now.

Hold up. We were all too distracted by Utah and c!crimeboys to notice that c!Wilbur said that he worked at a gas station for sixteen years. In Utah, you have to be at least 14 years old to start working. This means one of two things:
c!Wilbur is older than we originally thought and joined the dsmp when he was in his thirties
c!Wilbur was in his mid-twenties when he joined the dsmp and ignored child labor laws to start illegally working at a gas station when he was about 8 years old
So he's either every business' dream (a 25 year old with 16 years of experience), or he's the second oldest person on the server (after c!Phil, of course)

SBI Ghost Hotel AU
(This is slightly inspired from my vague memories of the song 'Hotel California')
So, we start of with bedrock bros trying to escape from their past. I’m not sure what their past was, but it involved the death of their brother, which was why they ran away. I’d say that Tommy would be mid-teens and Technoblade early-mid twenties.
Eventually they come across a hotel, which is where the story actually gets going. They decide to enter this hotel because the sign outside says the rooms are inexpensive, and both of them really want a proper night’s rest. 
The hotel is run by a man that doesn’t seem to have a specific age, looking anywhere from mid twenties to early fifties. The man introduces himself as Philza, and allows them a discount for staying the week, which they gladly take.
However, as the week goes on, things start becoming stranger. There are footsteps down the hallway in the night, the mirrors reflect wrong, music echoes through the hotel. Eventually Techno and Tommy start seeing Wilbur (Tommy seeing him first). This obviously shocks them, as he was supposed to be dead.
Eventually, at the end of the week they are conflicted. They really should get going, but they don’t want to leave Wilbur, who can’t actually leave the hotel at all. Philza, then, gives Tommy and Technoblade the choice. Leave the hotel and go back to their brother being dead, or stay at the hotel with their brother.
(This is definitely a dark SBI au, except only Philza is evil, and Wilbur is unknowingly working with him. He had been following his brothers for the whole trip, but only when they got to the hotel he could actually make his presence known, only later realizing that it trapped him there.)

Villan by the devil's law is genuinly making me ask myself a lot about the lore, and the stories that surround the main storyline
Like:
Is mumza a fae?
I bet the grandmother of the protagonist is a fae HAHAHA (or grandad, i dont want to think about the implications of mpreg in this universe)
Is fundy a fox spirit in the woods?
What does the family of Eileen think happened in the woods?
How did Garth and Eileen meet?
Is honey blessed by the woods?
Are other creatures besides the faes amd whatever there is in the dwell?
How do faes age?
How did philza craft ended up learning magic?
Are faes social creatures like us? Do they have traditions? Songs? What do they eat?
I want to study your word so hard, its trully wonderfull and it has been a delight to be able to read what you write
I LOVE ANSWERING QUESTIONS (- but no spoilers >:3 unfortunately, as best i can) gonna put my answers under the cut though, hope that's okay <33
Mumza's character is being thought about as we speak, but you know phil, he's in love with her no matter what she is
haha so the thing about the grandmother is very interesting but because i like surprises, i'm not saying hehe
Fundy's placement in this story will surprise you, I think, but not a fox spirit, could be blessed by one but not one himself
Eileen's mother had been told by Gramps that the kids were playing by the river, and they were. Eileen was forbidden by her mother to go back to the forest, and because she was injured badly, she couldn't go around to the cabin immediately. Eileen's father was not happy but he's not around anymore so its not like his opinion matters :) (now regarding the family like cousins or brothers or aunts/uncles, they were told it'd been a freak accident in the forest.)
There is more than the fae in the forest (and in the town)
Faes age weird, time is weird, they can definitely live a long time and stuff, but because wilbur's situation left him waiting for someone special, he was on the edge of his realm and it left him to age closer to reader's age. BUT time is weird so i'm probably, hm, wrong.
Philza, our favorite character, started learning about a decade ago, around his early-to-mid-twenties!
Hehe, not only are they social but they do have a rich culture, so yes, songs, traditions, all of that. Food, though, is special. If you ever get a taste of it, it will be the best thing you ever eat. It will also be the only thing you eat from now on :) if you're human that is
There's so much to know and I'm learning too as we go along in the fic! But I loved your questions and loved answering them,, thank you so much <3333

Exactly how old is Techno in this? I've been wondering for a while.
*Gestures vaguely* idk man, adult? Young-ish? Old enough to have achieved great things and have mostly figured himself out but young enough to not be calloused by time and to still have youthful insecurities?
First, on a meta level, I have a strong dislike in putting numbers on character ages since it feels limiting to how the characters can act. The only reason Philza's kids have precise ages is because him describing them as "young children" and "older teen" would sound super awkward.
Second, neither Techno or Philza are humans, they don't necessarily age at human pace, which is my in-universe explanation why Philza looks, acts and thinks like a young dad even though he must have been born like, 50 years ago since 1. he needs to be an adult emperor 2. he needs time to become tired enough of his lousy love-life to enter an arranged marriage in hopes that they'll learn to love each other 3. Wilbur needs time to be born and age into a teen.
So, how old was Techno when he became a gladiator? How long did it take him to get really good? How long did it take until he challenged the previous king? How long must he have ruled to have his power as consolidated as it's presented, and for his advisors to get where they are?
Locking down numbers means locking down temporal relations, and that means losing a large amount of flexibility.
Though to actually answer your question, Techno is at the human mental and physical equivalent of mid-twenties, Philza his early to mid thirties. How long has either of them existed? As long as they need to have for it to make sense in the story.

So…. Quackity is going through a midlife crisis while in his late twenties. Good for him. Get it homeslice. Living his best (worst) life.
Shit has hit the fan, flung out and covered the walls, but that’s okay bc it’s stopped right? We can safely wipe the shit off the walls. NO ACTUALLY. NO WE FUCKING CANT. If any of you fruits believe it’s only gonna get better oh you are so wrong.
There is a pattern going on here. The pattern of when Quackity is going through it, he doesn’t talk about it so instead he copes by cutting ties with the people who want to be there for him. Quackity feels like the type of guy to ghost his therapist instead of slowly spacing out appointments excluding the fact you’d have to tie that fucker up to get him to go in the first place. When Quackity first left Wilbur it was bc he was going through a crisis. And in his opinion it was worse for Wilbur bc Wilbur had barely been getting by and relying so heavily on Q for any form of worth or motivation. So if Quackity couldn’t even give that full on love back he felt like the only option left was to leave bc Wil would get over it eventually, right?
Now it’s the same shit with Karl and Sap. He feels like he can’t handle that marriage anymore. He can’t help them bc he can’t even help himself and he isn’t sure of his feelings. Quackity’s runs on impulsivity and wanting the immediate result and the only way to get an immediate result in this situation is to go full on 100% marriage ending.
Whenever I’ve been stuck in the gray space of romance, I instantly go to I must leave this bc it can’t work if I’m questioning it and I feel like Quackity thinks that too. If he can’t give them his all then they can’t have any.
So what happens when mid divorce, Quackity feels like he’s dragging Wilbur down and he decides maybe this isn’t good for Wilbur anymore? Is he just gonna suppress it for a month or two before dumping it at the wrong time? Is he gonna find an old connection and accidentally get too invested? Is he gonna throw himself into his work until he is back to living in hotels and his boyfriend becomes a weekend long panic attack that’s dreaded?
The difference now is that Wilbur is willing to do whatever it takes. 19 year old Wilbur didn’t have the financial means or emotional instability to go to hell and back to salvage a tattered and torn relationship. This Wilbur does. This Wilbur has the money to decide to travel with Quackity and surprise him with little gifts when he’s down and take him out to a nice meal. This Wilbur has been through so many break ups that he knows how to beg and pull the strings so that his partner won’t leave bc Wilbur can’t handle it if someone else, Q of all people, leave again.
I think the line “some of the best liars only want the truth” goes along with things like manipulation. Wilbur was manipulated so much that he manipulates the others around him in self defense. He doesn’t want to, he in fact feels very bad about it. But he is a very co dependant person.
I also feel like they are going to fight. A lot. There going to be a lot of nights where Wilbur is crying tears while throwing the closest object as close to Q’s head as he can because he’s been staying out awfully late. There’s going to be a lot of Quackity packing a bag to stay at a friends house bc Wilbur kept pushing his limits on helping Quackity with feelings. There’s going to be a lot of “maybe we shouldn’t have”s thrown at each other after a stupid disagreement.
Especially in a relationship built of adultery.
They both actively have cheated on people and they themselves cheated on Quackity’s exes together. For all Wilbur knows, Quackity got tired of his nagging and is fucking his ex husbands while staying late at work. For all Quackity knows, Wilbur could upset and trying to have sex with another one of his coworkers.
They won’t break up tho. Bc they had to sacrifice so much to get there. They are both codependent. They are like those teenagers who FaceTime their partners all day even if they aren’t talking. They have been through so much in this process that it doesn’t even matter anymore.
Anyways. I’m very sleepy now so goodnight. This is definitely unorganized as shit bc I haven’t analyzed anything since Ch 20 I think.
-the bitch that never shuts up. (The Quackity analysis anon. YOOOO IM BACK)
so basically you're saying they've set themselves up for pain here no matter what with this relationship
interesting...

Brothers by blood, brothers by choice

Wilbur is in his mid twenties when he finds out he has a half brother. Tom Gold is an obnoxious, loud mouthed teenager. He's quite the opposite of his half brother Wilbur and there should be no reason why they would get along.

fostering au. when tommy starts to hit his mid-late twenties he has a bit of a quarter life crisis.
he’s never lived alone (he tried for college and lasted three months) hes always been either with his brother or his two best friends (he owns a house with beeduo & michael but he still has his room in wilburs house and hes over there like at least twice a week) and since he stopped going to college and switched to online classes, hes never like. had a Big Thing for himself. his friends are all either pursuing a career or dating or getting married or having kids but hes aroace and fluctuating minimum wage jobs (he doesnt Actually need to work, ranboo’s rich as fuck which is the only reason they can afford a house, but he still does to “contribute”) .
so he decides he needs a Project . like his own thing that he builds towards. which is how he gets the idea to open his own shop!!
its officially a record shop, and theres for sure lots of those because he collects them (cat and mellohi….), but its also one of those tiny stores with shelves up to the ceiling that just sells a bunch of Things. trinkets. records and books and funny gadgets and guitars and collectibles and little potted plants.
he also makes a deal with niki (who opened her own bakery down the street!!) to buy a handful of pastries from her every day to sell to his clients as long as he puts a sign over it to advertise her . well she didn’t actually ask that she was totally fine as is but he insisted. he takes it to heart and makes the most eyesore colourful big poster threatening guiding all customers to “go find more of these delicious pastries where they came from”.
he loves his shop its such a nice place, very cozy and homey, where they all hang out regularly . its called Tom’s Records and fun fact i built it in the sims😁 maybe house tour one day
