Community Carrots
Box of Memories
minecraft:carrot x128 / O!Technoblade / In his carrot bag 
Tumblr media
Residents of the Origins land tend to greet newcomers like a flock of sheep to a shepherd with hay. Overwhelming, scrutinizing, but overall a nice feeling of being acknowledged.
After all, in a world full of hybrids, a human isn’t exactly the sight everyone wants to see.
But here you are in your ragtag group you call a family, despite layers upon layers of complicated living conditions. If all of you were contained in a household, god knows how a single house would be sufficiently equipped to tend to everyone’s needs.
Maybe you were the only one thinking about this, honestly. Seeing as your tendencies ended up willing yourself to be that kind of guardian, you mused to yourself as you stood from your place and wiped off the dried mud caking your knees. Standing proud at the sight of your crops terraces harvested and replanted.
The large expanse of farmland stood around the abandoned village where everyone can see, especially for newcomers who visits the first time and had yet to properly provide for themselves. From wheat to pumpkins (something that the Enderman kid somehow keeps taking despite his phobia of it), most crops that everyone can digest is available for the taking.
“You know, everyone can provide for themselves,” you felt the dirt around your feet slightly dip before you even saw the hybrid imposing on your inner monologue. “They have their own farms, they can work for their own food.”
“Crime rates had soared lately, specifically theft,” you raised the basket in your arms but it got snatched away before you can even lift it an inch higher. “Mhm, most items stolen are food, have you heard?”
Looking up to see your daily visitor, you meet the towering stare (amused, at least) of the most recent newcomer of the Origins land, Technoblade. Despite his huge build and towering frame, you still can’t wrap it around your mind that this guy is a rabbit hybrid. He reminds you of a polar bear than anything, or maybe those hoglin creatures in the hell dimension that is the Nether - although now that you think about it, who would have the guts (and fucked up mind) to make a hoglin hybrid - 
“It’s probably that fox guy from the snowy mountain,” looking away to watch the flowing water hydrating your mountain farm, Techno casually bit into the freshly harvested carrot from your basket, not at all minding the bits of dirt still stuck to it. “He’s been more active out of his den lately, I’ve heard.”
“Wow, the stigma.”
“You know it’s true.” He wasn’t wrong, you’ve seen the fox steal your berries in the middle of the night. But you know that in the end of the day, it’s Techno’s carrot addiction that you’d have to look out for.
You still remember the day you first properly interacted with the intimidating bunny. It wasn’t in your first day, as he was overshadowed by the sea of hybrids circling you and asking questions, being pulled here and there to show you their powers. As a human audience, you were easily distracted until it was time for the night - and even then there was more things shown to you and night-dwelling hybrids to introduce yourself to properly.
The vertigo of such a world in a different plane of existence to you had you grinding hard to keep up more than ever. Because besides the advantages of the others that you have to adjust to, the hostile mobs of the world is still a huge threat to your person. Even if the others offered to help in protecting you, you know you can’t rely on them all the time.
It was on the third day, in the start of the construction of your massive farmland, that you were up and personal with Technoblade. With all the tilled farmland hydrated by your water system, you stood at the bottom of the terraces to start planting your crops, starting off with carrots you pulled out the extra ones you got from tending to a smaller farm to begin the process -
When suddenly the bright rays of the Origin sun was blocked by a massive shadow. An unfamiliar shadow, you squinted at the outline of the darkness on the ground in front of you to confirm that yes, you do not know anyone in this shape. “I don’t suppose you’re Sneeg, right?” You joked as you buried the first carrot top in the soil - only to stop as a pink paw reached ever so slowly over your shoulder to pluck the carrot top out and away. “What the hell -”
But your confrontational script died down the moment you turned towards the perpetrator. A pink man towering over your form, doubled by the red cape hanging on his person, you had to step back to fully view the sheer presence of this stranger - the distance finally letting you gaze upon the two floppy ears almost to his shoulders, golden crown just as distracting as his neutral stare.
Jumping back from the intensity of his eyes, your basket of sprouted carrot tops toppled over to the ground. “Oh shoot, excuse me.” You both kneeled down to pick up the nursed crop, this made you smile, “Ah thank you, you didn’t have to - wait where are you putting those?!” Which quickly turned to a scowl of disbelief as you watch the hybrid gather the carrots into his own bag filled with already grown carrots.
If you have known the rumors about Technoblade beforehand, you wouldn’t have smacked him with your empty basket. But it was a funny story worth sharing to your friends in the aftermath, when you ended up gaining the companion of a bunny hybrid following your shadow - or shadowing you, more like.
Your daydreaming was interrupted once again when your companion not-so-quietly dumped your fresh harvest into his rucksack for ready-to-munch carrots by his side, the cloth already looking like it’s going to burst on the seams from the weight of that many carrots. “We really have to work on an intervention for your addiction.”
“Can’t intervene when I’m not gonna listen in the first place.”
“It was worth a try.” At least you receive a nice stock of rabbit’s foot for your trading, despite being disturbed at the implication of the severed limb. “You need anything else, rabbit man?”
A deep hum and a shake of his head. “You?” Looking up towards the top of the mountain you see your cozy house waiting, lanterns illuminating it as the day leaves for the night to grace the world. “Retreating then. Here, let me help with that.”
Before you can even protest, a pair of fluffy arms hoists you up into Techno’s tight hold before lurching up into the sky. Your tied strawhat and his ears floating from the jump as if in slow motion, the view framed with the creeping dusk as a background made the three seconds of jumping so breathtaking that you’ve forgotten the need for him to land. “Oh, thank you, Techno.”
“Uhm welcome.” You inspected Techno’s clothes, and after finding out that no soil or dirt from your person stuck to him, you looked up to wait for him to finish his words. Or leave. He turns his head away. “You know, the - the moon is beautiful tonight, isn’t it?”
You smiled. “The sun is still setting.”
He fumbles with his words but you didn’t miss the way his ears seem to flatten and tense against the back of his head. “Oh yeah, right, sorry about that -”
“But you know,” you giggle as one of his ears perks up, head turning to watch you with obvious anticipation. Your smile softens with honesty in your eyes. “Hasn’t it always been beautiful?”
His ears finally relax as he returns your smile.
Tumblr media
It was supposed to go like - everytime you try and plant the carrot, he takes that carrot out and it's a whole cycle until you run out of carrots, but then I remembered that's not how you plant carrots

Hybrid!Reader Galore-SBI (and one Awesamdude)
So I am combining four different requests with this one post because I have recently discovered that I am allowed to do that hahaha. So instead of five separate posts, it’s one big post!! I hope you enjoy!!! (There is a bonus idea at the bottom, it is not SBI, rather a Sam idea and it is so amazing and is not mine, the idea comes from our very own Sunflower anon who has my whole heart.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Elytran 
Well first things first, you guessed it. You have wings. You have beautiful wings that allow you to fly for miles and miles without getting tired. They are big and cover most of your back. When they’re not in use, they’re tucked in tightly to your back for save keeping. 
You and Philza are obviously very close. You and he can relate on so many levels. You spend a lot of time bonding over your wings. You know you can always go to him when you have questions about your wings and he is always willing to give you his knowledge, tips, and tricks on how to properly take care of your wings and stuff like that. I like to imagine that the two of you definitely help each other preen your wings. He more so you though. Like if it has been too long in his opinion he will force you to sit down on a chair so that you’re straddling it and your stomach is pressed against the back of the chair and he very carefully pulls the loose feathers and gets all of the grass and leaves and stuff out of your wings. Every so often you will return the favor, but because he’s been around so long he is practically perfect at doing his own wings himself and so he usually just focuses on you because you’re his kid and he wants to make sure that you’re taken care of. He gets a lot of the preening done when you two are sitting on the couch together and you’re snuggled up to his chest and his hand is just softly trailing up and down your wings. Smoothing out your feathers and carefully pulling out the ones that need to come out. It feels very nice and is very comforting. 
I also feel though that your brothers would also do this to you sometimes. Just when you’re having a conversation with one of them they will grab your shoulders and turn you around and you would be forced to talk to them as they pick at your wings. Sometimes Tommy is too rough and so he can only do it when he’s absolutely calm. I 100% believe that before his death, Wilbur was the best brother to go to for help with your wings when Phil wasn’t around. He has the hands of musician, steady and gentle hands but still calloused and rough from years of plucking at a guitar. So he would be really good at being careful but also would be very good at picking out the things that needed to go while also being good at, i guess, petting your wings. I feel like Techno would be okay at it, not as good as Phil and Wilbur though. I feel like Tommy could be too rough sometimes. I feel like there are two different Techno’s you could get. A soft and gentle Techno who is very careful when messing with your wings or a rough and quick Techno that just really wants to be done with whatever you’ve asked him to do. So you would have to catch Techno on a good day in order for him to be able to properly help you. 
Like Philza and Techno do, You and Philza go on adventures together all the time, only there is a slight difference obviously. You two go on flights. You two fly for hours at a time sometimes, not always have a particular destination in mind. You two just like to fly together. It’s such a freeing feeling. You two just fly together, feel the wind in your hair and your wings. The time is usually spent just chatting about anything and everything. It’s nice. You just get to spend a lot of time with your dad and you get to feel free and get to get away from all of the drama of the smp. I like to imagine that sometimes you two fly for so long that you get too tired to keep flying, but you have to get home. So Phil will pick you up, you wrap your arms around his neck and your legs around his waist, and he will fly the two of you home. He’s been alive for hundred of years and has had years of flying practice and so he almost never gets tired from flying and so he has absolutely no problem carrying you home if you’re too tired. Once you get a bit older and stuff, I also like to think that you’re able to do the same for your brothers, obviously not as long as Philza can, but you can pick them up and take them on a little flight around the server. Tommy would love it the most. He would cling to you, terrified you would drop him, but he would love being so high up, seeing everything and feeling free. He would love that he actually got to feel like a kid again. Wilbur and Techno would like it a lot less than Tommy. They would take you up on the offer every once in a while, but I don’t think they would like it that much. Like Techno would like to feel the wind through his hair and to feel free and not have to worry about anything, but I feel like he would just be hella scared that you’re going to drop him. He’s a big man and he trusts you a lot, but that doesn’t mean you’re strong enough to hold him. Don’t tell anyone, but I kind of headcanon that Wilbur is scared of heights. I don’t know why, I just kind of get that vibe from him. So like on the very very very rare occasion where you take him for a fly, he spends the whole time clinging to you for dear life with his face buried in your neck and his eyes clenched tightly closed. You can’t help but laugh at him though. You asked him about it once, why he accepts your offer if he’s so terrified, his answer warmed your heart. “I just like spending time with you. Anyway that I can.” (Complete side note, Ghostbur on the other hand would love love love love to go on flights with you. Like would beg you almost every day to go on one.)
Ghast hybrid
Listen, I am not saying this to exclude anyone okay? Please don’t take it as that, but you would be pale. You would be so pale. It’s the ghast in you and so you would be so pale. Like I feel you would almost have to wear a hat or put on sunscreen every time you left the house in the overworld because you would so easily be burned. That being said, you definitely would thrive in the nether. Like the heat and the brightness of the lava wouldn’t bother you at all as you travel through your home biome. You would also be able to fly. You would move so smoothly through the sky. You wouldn’t have wings or anything like that, you would just be able to fly. But like it would be so funny to scare the hell out of Tommy. Like you two are arguing or something or he’s just being annoying and so you just start fucking levatating as you stare him down. He would 100% shriek and run away from you causing you to laugh. 
You always accompany any of the boys when they go into the nether for anything because no hostile mobs will attack if you’re nearby. Ghasts won’t shoot at you, hoglins won’t charge, blaze won’t fireball… you get it. Like the nether is your home and you are one of them, and they know that. You also are super good at navigating the nether. Think Human GPS but like half ghast GPS instead haha. You have absolutely saved the boys’ asses on more than one occasion. Like one time Techno wasn’t paying attention and he was just kind of walking around in the nether freely without thinking about it. He was going on and on about how it was nice to have you here but he probably could have handled it himself. He was right in the middle of telling you about how he probably could navigate the nether better than you when he literally walked straight off a cliff that hung right over a giant lava lake. You didn’t have time to laugh at his obliviousness. You knew that he couldn’t swim in lava, he may be a piglin hybrid that can survive the heat, but he absolutely could not swim in lava. So you very quickly ran right off of the edge of the cliff, flew down to him and just before he could sink into the lava, you grabbed him and flew him back up to the edge of the cliff. Once he was secure with solid ground under his feet, Techno would pull you into a giant hug. “Thank you,” he murmurs in your hair. You can’t help but giggle as you hug him back. “Of course. What was I going to do? Let you die? Besides, now we have prove of who’s the better nether navigator.” And Techno goes to argue but you just stare at him with a raised eyebrow and so his mouth snaps shut. You both knew you won that. 
So Ghast tears right? So when you get upset to the point of crying, you do your best to keep in the tears because when you cry, they literally leave tear stains. Like your cheeks are stained and scarred for the next few hours because of the tears. It burns and is a painful thing, so you try to avoid it as much as possible. Another thing that happens when you’re upset is you begin to breathe fire and shoot fireballs out of your mouth. You accidentally discovered this once when Techno wouldn’t give you back your axe and you accidentally fireballed him into a wall, exploding parts of the wall as well. So when you get angry/upset, you clamp your mouth closed and don’t speak. That is the telltale sign that you’re angry, when you go silent. Tommy loves to push you at this point. Saying anything he can to get you to… well explode. It’s only worked once. Let’s just say that Tommy’s clothes and hair got a bit singed and he didn’t mess with you while you were upset for a few months afterwards. 
Something useful about your tears is they can make regeneration potions. Obviously they aren’t full effect because you are only half ghast, but they still work. So even if you are crying and you are upset, you’re always sure to physically bottle up some of your tears when you do cry so that someone, mostly you or Techno, could make regeneration potions with them. 
Raccoon hybrid
TRASH PANDAS!!!! Okay, right, sorry. 
So we will begin with looks. You have little raccoons on top of your head, dark circles around your eyes, and a fuzzy black and white ringed tail. You have to take very good care of your ears and of your tail, making sure that it doesn’t get matted and stuff. I also feel you’re rather short. And sometimes you feel out of place among the absolute giants that are your brothers. 
I feel like you would get along the best with Tommy. THIS IS NOT AN INSULT AT ALL but like for some reason I get a raccoon type vibe from Tommy. So I feel like you two would just vibe very well together. You’re mostly nocturnal due to your raccoon hybrid and Tommy is a 16 year old hyper boy who doesn’t like authority that much. So like he very often can be found in your room late at night. The two of you laughing and just hanging out together. If you get him on a good night, he will carefully pet your tail or brush it while you talk. You two have bonded a lot and shared a lot of sweet moments through your nocturnal nights together. 
That being said, it does not stop Tommy from making fun of you. Raccoons are thought to be colorblind and Tommy knows this applies to you and does not stop making fun of you for it. “Hey Y/N! What color is this flower?” “Fuck off.” Because Tommy makes fun of you, you like to prank him a lot. Raccoons are actually very clever and this absolutely applies to you. You can move very quietly if you want so you manage to always prank Tommy really well…. That being said, you also find yourself very often ruining your own pranks because of how loud you can be. Have you ever heard a raccoon rummaging through your garbage at night? It feels like the loudest thing in the world lol. So sometimes you are accidentally careless and are very loud. 
Raccoons can fall from pretty high heights without getting hurt, so you would be able to do the same. It would have been a total accident of how you found out though. You would have been helping Tommy build a random cobblestone tower when he accidentally pushed you off the tower. You didn’t have a water bucket and there was no water below you, so you literally prepared yourself for the loss of your first canon life. Your body finally hit the ground and you were left a little breathless from the force of the hit, but nothing hurt. You checked your wrist and found you had only lost one heart. Even though you were completely fine, Philza still gave Tommy hell for pushing you off the tower and grounded him for a few weeks. Even though you know you’d be fine from a big fall, you are still very careful when you’re high up. Like I said, you know you’ll be fine, but you don’t want to push the boundaries. 
I feel like you have definitely been caught rummaging through the trash before. You were probably just bored and looking for something to do, or just something to play with and so on instinct, you reached into the trash and began searching through it. Philza would be the one to catch you. He wouldn’t even react too. He would simply let out a sigh, walk over to you, grab your arms and pull them out of the trash and walk you over to the sink before making you wash your hands. While you were doing that, he would take out the trash, making a mental note to get a more efficient/better way of getting rid of your trash. 
Cow Hybrid 
Yes yes yes yes. Okay okay. I love cows. Okay.
Starting out as always, appearance. So I think that you would have a few brown and white spots littering your skin. You’re entirely covered in them, but there are some on your arms, torso, and legs. You also have little horns that poke out of your hair. They’re a bit sensitive and your hair gets caught on them a lot, but they’re hella cute. You’re ears are where a human’s ears are, but they’re a bit bigger and a little more pink and flimsy than normal human ears. You also have a thin tail that pokes out behind you. You use it to swat things, mostly Tommy, away from you. When someone gets hit by your tail, it stings quite a bit. Your skin is rather tough, not like super tough, but like it has a rather leathery feel. So not only does it hurt when you hit people, but it can also be a bit harder for you to get hurt/cut and stuff. Which is rather nice. 
Something just random but hella cute that I like to think happens is that if you’re out walking, with or without your family, baby cows will begin to follow you. If they get far enough away from their parents and you happen to be nearby, they 100% will begin to follow you. It warms your heart a little bit, but it also worries you because you don’t want to upset their parents, but the adult cows just think it’s really funny. Like, it is so obvious that you’re not a full cow and that you’re barely an adult yourself, but the baby cows will still follow you and it is just so funny. 
I feel like when you get very frustrated, you begin to moo or let out huffs and puffs. The boys find it very funny, but also not to bring it up to you. One time Wilbur made the mistake of laughing out loud when you mooed…. You charged him and tackled him and broke the table. So now the boys have just learned to try and comfort you and then laugh in private. 
Listen I have seen many photos and videos of cows being petted and owners sitting in fields and the cow comes over and just lays on them and cuddles them and so like I feel that a lot of the times when you would find someone sitting on the couch or something, just chilling, you would try and cuddle up to them. Tommy and Techno wouldn’t like it as much, they would give you like a pat on the back before shoving you off. Philza would chuckle but allow you to rest there. Wilbur would absolutely let you cuddle up to him and oftentimes would wrap his arms around you and hold you to him. I also feel like he would be the only one to do it back to you. If you were just seated somewhere lounging around, Wilbur would absolutely flop down on top of you, crushing you a little bit, yes, but it is still nice… not having to be the one to initiate the contact. So you would just giggle and wrap your arms around him and nuzzle your face either in his curly hair or in his chest, it depends on how he flops down on top of you. Wilbur would also absolutely pet and stroke your horns and would just let you relax completely against him. 
A lot of the time you can be found with a piece of hay hanging out of your mouth. I feel like you would just enjoy the taste but also just the feel of the plant on your tongue as you chew would be so comforting. Philza at first would try to take the thin straw out of your mouth but after you almost cried about it, he decided to just left it alone and let you do whatever you want. Tommy still tries to steal it from your mouth, but you’ve gotten good at chomping down on it and not letting it go. Techno gives you a little bit of a weird look but goes on about it. (It’s because he absolutely has tried it without you knowing and he hated it so much and he has no idea how the hell you keep doing it.) Wilbur I feel would be the one to help you keep your supply of it and would always get you a new one if you needed it. I feel like you would offer him one and he will sometimes accept it, but he doesn’t like it but he doesn’t want you to feel that your habits are weird so he partakes to make you feel better. Also for eating, you would love everything wheat based and would have a field day with things like that. You absolutely cannot and will not eat beef and you will not be around if anyone around you is eating it. It makes you sick to your stomach. So you don’t eat a lot of meat and you’re mostly vegetarian. Philza is more than willing to adjust his recipes to accommodate you and make sure that you’re okay at meal times. 
Minecraft cows avoid going into water at about all costs, so I feel like you would do the same. You would avoid everything from stepping in puddles to swimming across the river to even having a beach day at the ocean. I think you would be fine, it’s just the floating in water and having your feet not be completely on solid ground that you hate. Your family sometimes makes fun of you for it because they have to build a bridge of some kind or craft a boat for the smallest thing of water, but in reality they want you to be comfortable and so they do everything to make it so you could have your way when it comes to the water like that. When Wilbur becomes Ghostbur, Ghostbur likes to hang out with you a lot because you’re good company but also because he knows you don’t go anywhere near water, and he’s allergic to water so it works out very well for you. 
Cat hybrid w Creeper hybrid Sam
So 🌻 had this fucking amazing idea okay. Like all credit for this idea goes to her, I am but a simple writer that wrote it out a little bit more, but this was completely her idea and she has my whole heart because she has a big brain. It is praise 🌻 hours friends!
So you are the newest addition to the SMP, a cute little cat hybrid. You have cute, fluffy ears that sit on the top of your head and you have a matching fluffy tail that pokes out behind you. Everyone that has met you agrees that you’re very cute and very sweet to everyone. Everyone loves to be around you and loves to spend time with you….. Well almost everyone. 
As we have learned in previous hybrid headcanons, Sam is terrified of cats. It’s the creeper in him and he feels so bad that he avoids you so admently, but he cannot help the trepidation that swells in his veins when he’s near you. He has tried to approach you several times, tried to properly introduce himself, but he just couldn’t get close enough to you to do it. Sam had definitely asked others about you though and had fallen in love with you through the other’s descriptions and through watching you from afar, trying his best not to be seen. You weren’t dumb though, you knew he was there watching you. And when he took his eyes off of you, you let your stare turn to him as well. You let yourself stare at the man that refused to approach you. You, like him, asked around about him and you learned about him through others. You learned about how passionate he was about his work, how kind he was, how he had practically adopted a few of the minors on the server, how he was such a nice guy. It made your heart ache. If he was such a nice guy, why would he only watch you from a far then? Why wouldn’t he approach you? He must hate you… Yeah that had to be it, he heard about you, watched you for a bit, and decided that he didn’t like you… It made you hella sad, but it’s just something you would have to deal with and live with…. Oh well…. Better get building your house. 
Sam decided that he would try to make a move on you. He wanted to get to know you better through your own words and stuff, not just what others had to think about you. So he decided he would try to approach you while you were working on your house. Sam didn’t want to come empty handed, he figured he had already made a bad enough impression on you by not approaching you sooner, so he picks some flowers, roses and sunflowers because I’m a self indulgent bitch, and he took a few deep breaths before making his way to the plot of land that you have claimed as your own. He finds you working on the front wall of your house and he finds it very easy to approach you when you’re not paying attention to him. He is getting rather close to you, the closest he’s ever been to you and he’s really proud of himself. You must have sensed him, or heard his footsteps or something though, because your head snaps to look over your shoulder and your gaze locks with his and every single bit of confidence that Sam had worked up leaves his body. The fear of being around a cat fills him and he can’t help but let the flowers fall from his fingers and he sprints away. “Hey! Wait!” You call after him, rushing forward a bit, trying to stop him. But he’s gone so fast that you can only get to where he dropped the flowers before he’s out of sight. You can’t help but let out a sigh as you turn around. He must really hate you huh? Your eyes catch the flowers on the ground and you bend down to pick them up. Are these for you? They must be if he brought them here… Even if he did drop them on the ground to run away from you. Either way, you brought the pretty flowers to your nose and took a deep breath through your nose, inhaling the sweet scent. You can’t help the smile that curls on your face as you make your way “inside” of you under construction. You very quickly find a vase and get some water and set the flowers on a makeshift table in your house before going back to building the walls, every time your gaze catching the flowers, a grin growing on your face. 
Sam berates himself when he gets back home for how stupid it was for him to just leave like that. So he tells himself he is going to go back tomorrow and at least introduce himself to you. He will speak at least three words to you. The next day comes and he does as he’s promised. He gathers all of his confidence again before making his way back to your land. He freezes just outside the property line and sees that you have constructed your walls and you are now working on your roof. Your back is to him once again and so he lets out a deep breath before deciding to make the first move. “Hi there!” He shouts from his spot, about 25 blocks away from you. Your attention moves from what you were doing to the man that called out to you. You were very surprised to find Sam standing there. “Hi! Can I help you with something?” You call back. Sam takes a deep breath, happiness filling him at the fact you were actually having a conversation and he wasn’t running. “I uh, I just wanted to introduce myself to you. I’m Sam, it’s very nice to meet you.” You give the man a warm smile, “I’m Y/N. It’s very nice to finally meet you Sam… I must admit, I thought that maybe you hated me because you seemed to avoid me like the plague,” you tease, moving a few materials around before sitting down to face him. A blush that you can’t see spreads across his face as he scratches the back of his neck as he subconsciously takes a few steps forward. “Yeah, sorry about that. I don’t hate you… It’s just that you’re a cat hybrid and my creeper side doesn’t like that very much. I’m sorry I made it seem like I hated you.” It all made so much sense to you now and you couldn’t help but feel bad for feeling that he hated you. “Oh!” You let out, laughing at yourself causing Sam to smile, he liked your laugh. “That’s right… I forgot that. Well, I’m sorry I scare you” you claim with a giggle. Sam gives you a slight smile as he takes another few steps forward, “It’s alright, not your fault. Just both of our natures,” Sam claims eliciting a hum out of you as you nod your head. 
The two of you take the next few minutes to get to know each other just a bit better. Even though you scare him still a little bit, Sam can’t help but inch his way toward you. You notice this but don’t say anything about it, you only smile. 
Sam is telling you about his latest redstone project when it happens. You momentarily forget your on your roof and so you move to lean in closer to hear him better and it happens. You slip. You feel yourself falling from your roof. It’s pretty high up, easily at least 15 blocks high. You’re pretty relaxed about it, but Sam is panicking. He makes the split decision and he rushes forward and catches you in his arms. Half of his mind is screaming for him to run away from you by the other half is screaming for him to stay and make sure you're okay. You are very surprised to land in his arms but it is a very welcome surprise. You two lock eyes and you give him a big smile. “Hey” you greet casually. Sam gives a big gulp before giving you a nervous smile back, “Hey.” You have a very quick mental debate with yourself before saying screw it to yourself, “Guess you could say I fell for you huh?” The joke causes a bit of tension to leave Sam and he lets out a little giggle and shakes his head. “Guess you could say I caught feelings then huh?” he retorts with a cheesy grin. You blush a little bit before leaning up and kissing his cheek making him blush too. “Do you want to go on a date with me?” Sam blurts out. You’re a bit surprised at the question but you very quickly nod, “I would love to Sam. Are you sure you’ll be okay though?” You ask him. He gives you a reassuring smile and nod. “Yeah, I’ll be fine. Now that I know what it’s like to hold you I’m not sure I ever want to let you go.” The heat returns to your cheeks, but like a million times hotter now. You left speechless for a few moments causing Sam to chuckle and set you down, but his hands don’t leave your waist and yours don’t leave his shoulders. You two simply beam at each other for a while before Sam looks over to your house, “Do you want some help?” he offers. You give a series of quick nods, “Yeah that would be wonderful… Thank you.”
(So I was going to make it a little funny because cats don’t take fall damage and so like hybrid cat reader wouldn’t either but then I began writing the little scene at the end and I liked that a lot and I couldn’t find anywhere to squeeze it in without ruining the mood. So just please think about how Sam got over his fear of cats because he thought you were in danger of getting hurt, but you weren’t because fall damage doesn’t affect you, and so he caught you even though it terrified him… That’s all. Hope you enjoyed)

Familial Love - Dad!Badboyhalo and Reader Part 1
GN
Pairings: none
Characters included: Philza, Wilbur, Technoblade, Tommy, Badboyhalo
Warnings: n/a
Series: only a two parter
Summary: Having mischievious kids who were interested about the nether, Philza thought it would be the smartest thing to bring his whole family togther into the other world, so he could keep his eyes on them and satisfy their curiosity. Besides, they all could collect some resources while being there, though once in the nether they find more than they bargained for. Bringing in BadBoyHalo who might be able to help with this delicate matter.
Words count: 2684
Authors Note: It was a request ages ago but I sadly lost it, now I’m using it to slowly get back into writing and I know I’m horrible when it comes to multiple chapter fics but I am already almost done with the second part though I have to heavily edit it since I forgot something important. I can’t promise I’m turning back into an upload every week but I’m going to slowly inch my way back to it. I would appreciate some feedback on this one since it’s been a while :)
Philza was fanning some air towards his face using his hand. This wasn’t really helping, of course. The air in the Nether was way too hot for that but he had no better way to deal with the heat that he was currently experiencing. He used to be better at that but he has been spending way more time in the Overworld as of late due to personal projects and having to raise three kids, hence why it took him a bit by surprise with how much trouble he seemed to have to adapt to this environment.
This was also mirrored by his oldest kid Wilbur, which made sense seeing how he only spend minimal time in the Nether, meanwhile Technoblade did fine and interestingly enough, while Tommy was obviously also uncomfortable in this heat, he seemed to be doing better than Philza and Wilbur. Techno was born in the Nether so while it might take a moment he had no problem getting used to this, but Tommy? It was his first time in the Nether so it was a bit surprising. Philza just chalked it up to him being younger and able to adapt faster.
“You sure you guys want to help find the materials?” Philza was looking at both Wilbur and Tommy, though his attention was primarily on Wilbur who was once again wiping away the sweat on his brow.
Both nodded but only Wilbur spoke “Yeah! It’s usually just you and Techno, we want to help out for once as well.”
Philza squinted his eyes, staring his son down “This is bullshit but I’ll take the help nonetheless. I’m sure you will also find the things you both are looking for, would be easier if you would just tell me outright what though.”
“You knew?”
Wilbur clasped his hand around Tommy’s mouth and pulled him closer “It’s fine, dad! We’ll be fine! We’re gonna get that blackstone and the wood in no time!”
He then proceeded to drag Tommy off who begun to angrily yell at Wilbur.
“Remember to stay close!” Phil tried to throw after them but it seemed to go unnoticed, which meant he needed to stay close to them and not the other way around.
“They’ll be fine.” Techno suddenly appeared next to him. An iron axe in his hands.
Philza sighed “ I hope. It’s Tommy’s first time in the Nether and Wilbur doesn’t spend a lot of time here. We have to make sure to stay close.”
Techno nodded, he too was worried about his brothers as well after all “They have some Enderpearls should anything happen and Wilbur will make sure to look out for Tommy.”
He was correct. Philza went over this with all of his sons a ton of times. Teaching them how to enderpearl away while falling and training their aim. He also made sure to tell them all of all the dangers that would await them here. Giving them enchanted bows that could one hit a Ghast.
There was no sense in dwelling on that for now though, hence why Philza hesitantly approached a red tree. His diamond axe soon burrying itself deep into the surprisingly soft wood. Not only is this wood beautiful if used correctly but this wood was also fire resistant which could be helpful for some of his other builds.
Techno was also already on it. He was younger than Wilbur and yet he already showed greater strength than him. Though this wasn’t surprising seeing how Techno was a Piglin Hybrid. They usually grow up pretty fast and were known for their brute strength.
With one swing of his axe he was already pretty deep into the tree. He was just a kid and yet he could keep up with Philza’s rate of cutting down these trees pretty well.
All the while Philza would make sure to run after Wilbur and Tommy. Cutting down the trees close to them. Always making sure that all of his three kids were in his peripheral view. They were still clumsy young children and every time they would even just stumble for a small second his heart would drop.
At times Wilbur and Tommy would try to coax Techno over to show off a cool looking mushroom. At first he was unsure, just wanting to help gather the few recourses that Philza needed but the more his brothers asked the bigger his curiosity got. It didn’t take long for him to join his brothers to look at all the interesting plants and other things they found. Philza just gave him a nod as a sign he is allowed to go after them.
Of course, as a worried father, Philza would still keep his eyes on them.
Honestly this was probably a horrible idea to bring them all with him. The Nether is just too dangerous for kids but also they were so curious! And mischievous kids who are curious about something specific especially when their father doesn’t allow them to approach it? That seems to spell disaster, so, in his infinite wisdom Philza thought it would be a good idea to bring them in with him for a really small outing. Nothing special. He even made sure the portal was in a good place and made it as safe as possible before he took his whole family in.
So when he suddenly heard a scream his heart figuratively stopped. He was so preoccupied with his worry that he didn’t notice how the kids left his view. Without hesitating Philza dropped the heavy axe and instead opened up his wings. With just a few beats of his wings he flew up into the air. Frantically looking around for his sons, hoping they haven’t gone further underground. It calmed him down that there weren’t more screams which could mean one of them just got scared for a second, or they are all already dead not having a chance to yell out again.
Realizing that thinking about this would only make it worse he begun to fully concentrate on the environment, calling out to his sons in the progress. Sweat rolled down the side of his face, this time not only due to the heat but also due to the fear that seemed to fester deep down in his heart and bones with every second he couldn’t find his family.
Then suddenly he saw something blonde. Thank the End Tommy had such an easy to spot hair color. And next to him were Wilbur and Techno, all three of them seemed to look at something laying on the floor. Philza couldn’t make it out from up in the air since the kids put all of their heads together above the item of interest. Either way they seemed to be alright.
As Philza landed close to them he put his hand against his heart “By Ender you guys scared me. Are you alright? I heard one of you scream and I couldn’t see you. Didn’t I tell you guys to stay close to me for that exact reason?”
He kept on rambling along, more out of nervousness and guilt but was stopped as Wilbur looked up, turned around and just stared at his father with a confused expression. In this confusion was a worry there that made Philza almost cautious. Something was wrong after all.
Techno and Tommy followed suit, all of them finally forming an opening so he could see what they were staring at.
On the hot nether ground there was a bundle. A bundle that slowly moved around.
Philza slowly approached it, soon noticing two horns poking out of this bundle. Wrapped in this dirty brown cloth was a baby. A baby with two horns on their forehead and shimmering skin. It looked like there was shimmering ink buried beneath the skin that was now happily dancing across. There was no glow to it and yet he couldn’t describe it differently. There was a shimmer.
This was a demon baby.
His eyes widened as he realized this, fatherly instincts kicking in as he scrambled to get that child off the ground. It was most likely fine seeing how they are a demon but in his mind right now he needed to get the child off the hot netherrack.
“Dad, whose is it?” Tommy stepped closer, pulling on his fathers long sleeve. While young he seemed to understand the implications of a frail small baby just lying around on the ground, understanding that this isn’t how it’s supposed to be.
And he was correct. In Philza’s life he has met demons only a couple of times but has already read a lot of texts on them. While they can live in either the Overworld or the Nether most get born inside the Nether and just like humans, they usually grow up with parents at their side. Parents that taught them how the world works and showed them how to control their magical prowess.
They got the name demon by their unnatural ability and affinity for magic. Being able to control the magic of an enchanting table like no other, able to read the enchantments and crafting new ones. Some even showed outside of enchanting abilities like summoning forth fire for example.
This child was orphaned. Maybe the parents died? He has never heard stories of demons abandoning their own kin, though only because he hasn’t heard it, this doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. He just knew that they took their kin seriously and it was in their eyes one of the strongest bonds that you can have. If a demon called you their kin? That is something special and honoring.
Philza looked the child over one more time. No wounds, no jewelry not anything that could tell him what has happened here or whose baby it is.
As his hand came across the cloth, trying to see if there might be anything embroidered on there the baby instinctively grabbed for his hand. Holding on to his pinky for dear life. Accompanied by a few babbling baby noises. Melting his heart in the process but it also pulled him out of his frantic thoughts.
The next few minutes he ordered his boys to scour the place a bit. Trying to look for any hints of the baby’s parents but there was nothing.
“So, what do we do with them?” Wilbur asked, standing on the tips of his toes as he tried to get a good look at the baby again. The dark horns was what really piqued his interest. Realistically he knew things like this were possible, seeing how his father hand black wings, but it still seemed so magical and impossible.
“Do we have, uh, a new sibling?” Techno asked. His cheeks turning into a soft shade of red as he asked. His eyes darting to the ground. He still wasn’t used to this even though he was adopted and a Piglin Hybrid he was very much a part of the family.
With wide and hopeful eyes Tommy looked up at Philza “I can be a big brother?”
Oh.
Philza wanted to agree. Wanted to tell them, to greet the new member to their family but he couldn’t. Not in good consciousness when he knew there was a better option. An option that would teach the kid what they needed. He couldn’t teach them anything about magic beyond enchanting tools with an enchantment table.
Besides he did know a demon. He met him only a couple of time, so they weren’t particular close but he knew how to reach him and this seemed to be by far the best and most fair option for this baby.
So, he shook his head. All three kids almost seemed shocked at that.
“Why?” Wilbur asked, his hand now holding onto the cloth that the child was wrapped in.
“Because I couldn’t give the child what they needed but I know someone else who can give the child a proper chance at life. Listen, you don’t need to understand yet but trust me as a father. Besides I’m sure we can visit them!”
This wasn’t enough for the children obviously. Asking more questions, trying to get a specific answer. Just repeating the questions.
“That’s enough! This is my decision and as your father and as the resident adult who actually has to take care of all of you, this is my decision. You’ll understand when you get older, I promise.”
Of course there was still some groaning and mumbling but the kids noticed that this was not something they could change Philza’s mind on. Didn’t mean they have to like that though.
With that Philza guided his family back into the overworld as fast as possible. Once back out the nether he made sure to see if the baby was dealing well with the sudden environmental change but they just kept on smiling and babbling which he interpreted as a good sign.
With the help of a long range communicator Philza managed to send of a message to said demon who in return managed to visit Philza after a day using the nether as a hub to travel faster. Seeing how he needed a full day to travel using the nether roof just showcased how far he actually was.
It was Wilbur who opened up the door to him. A tall demon clad in black clothes that had grey and red accents. Two horns grew out of his forehead similar to that of the babies, his skin being a deep black vortex that seemed to swirl but whenever you tried to really concentrate on it , it seemed to disappear and move to the corner of your eye.
Wilbur rubbed his eyes “Um, hello?”
A bright and happy smile appeared on the demons face, a thin tail moving happily around in the back “Hello! Nice to meet you! I’m BadBoyHalo! Your father messaged me, can I talk to him? Is he here?”
“Dad! Someone is here at the door! Is it that guy that is gonna steal our sibling?”
It only took Philza a short moment until he arrived at the front door with the baby in his arms, washed and taken care of to the best of his abilities “Wilbur! We talked about it, he is not stealing them! I’m sorry, Bad but I appreciate you coming over.”
Both Techno and Tommy walked in behind him, obviously having caught on to what was happening. Their expressions sad and almost dark. Still thinking that this was unfair.
Bad curiously pointed at the child in Philza’s arms “That’s them? Can I take a closer look?”
He didn’t hesitate to give Bad the child. Bad might have only been an acquaintance but he knows for a fact that he is a peaceful person. Someone who only fights to protect but don’t let that fool you. He was still powerful and dangerous.
It didn’t surprise him at all when Bad poked lovingly one of the chubby cheeks of the baby and cooed “Aw, look at you! Aren’t you adorable!”
This seemed to confuse Wilbur though who saw Bad as a mighty demon, not as a demon that just melted at one look of a baby.
“What can you tell me about them?”
Bad’s happy, scrunched up face returned to normal, now looking with a serious expression towards Philza “They already have their horns which isn’t unusual but more rare. It’s close to how mine are formed so if we Demons weren’t spread thin all around the place I would say they would technically be in the same clan as me. It’s the typical form of pyromancers but that doesn’t have to be it. I can’t feel any spells on them not even any protective spells which is weird. Even if parents abandon their kids they still apply a few protective spells, hoping it will give them enough time for other Demons to find them.”
“So, you think their parents died?”
“I-“ Bad begun only to scrunch up his eyebrows, an air of sadness seemed to sweep through the room “We are so wide spread and don’t live only in the nether anymore, so, abandoning a baby hoping that another demon finds them is… rare at best. We stick together. Our kin is important to us. I don’t think this was planned. No, they would have given over their child to people they trusted. This feels wrong. Very wrong.”
His voice wavered a bit at the end. The sadness of the situation seemed to have hit him.
Philza crossed his arms as he listened, the kids now almost hiding behind him but still peeking at the strange man “That’s- I have hoped for something better somehow but I figured it would be something like this. Can you help? Will you think about my proposal?”
“I’m not sure-“ but he got interrupted by the cries of the baby but Bad reacted immediately. Slowly swaddling them and carefully wiping away their tears. Lulling them slowly to calm them down again.
“What was it you wanted to say?” Philza tried to get back on topic.
“I’m- I’m taking them home. I’ll be their father.”
A huge smile spread across Philza’s face “Well, congratulations and thank you. Do you already have a name for them in mind?”
It shocked him when Bad immediately answered “Y/N. Their name is Y/N.”

Wilbur stood up, his fists clenching. You noticed the odd behavior coming from the brunette, it was unusual for him to look so stressed, and on top of that bothered. "Wil, what's wrong? You can't just lie to me if something is happening" You caught the way his fists tightened. "Don't worry, it's nothing."
He gave you a reassuring smile, turning to the door and leaving you behind with a questionable expression on his face. Wilbur looked pissed, but what could it possibly be that made him this distressed.
° ° °
"M-Mm.." You whimpered, eyes closed as the being kept exploring your mouth with its tongue. His eyes narrowed, enjoying the way your body reacted so naturally to his. "So obedient even in your slumber." The blonde complimented but stopped in his tracks when he sees a man in the corner of his eye.
XD quickly became defensive, hiding your unconscious body under his cloak. "What the.." Wilbur's eyes widened, teeth pulled back into a snarl. "LET HER GO-" The God chuckled, softly patting your head from above his cloak. "A mere human, ordering me to submit what is mine? How ridiculous." He said as he looked down, admiring your kissable lips.
"I'll fucking kill you if you don't let her go."
° ° °
Even thinking back to what he saw gave him the shivers. A God, specifically DreamXD being infatuated with a human? And not just any human, but it just had to be you, someone who he sees as more than just a friend. "Fuck." He cursed under his breath as soon as he exited your room. Once he was far away he punched the nearest wall. "DAMNIT."
"Wilbur..-?" Tommy's voice softened, he was about to call out to him but decided that maybe it wasn't a good idea. "What do you want Tommy?!" Wilbur screamed, stepping back once he realized that he had raised his voice. "Sorry, I'm just.. Stressed from all of this" He chuckled, stroking his bangs back with a sigh.
"That's.. fine? But enough from that man, what are we gonna do about the problem? We can't fucking contact Techno or Phil without actually going to where they are"
"Tommy, I'm well aware that it'll take days for us to get there but it's alright. As long as we resolve this problem we shouldn't complain about it."
"What about [Name]? Will we bring her along?" The kid asked, a hopeful look in his eyes. Soot knew how much Tommy wanted you to experience the world, more than anybody else. "We aren't bringing her, neither are we bringing anybody else. It'll just be us two."
"WHAT? Bro, I'm gonna fucking starve out there. Not to mention it's gonna be cold as fuck in that damn tundra." He complained, childishly stomping his feet on the ground. "Tommy, it's for the sake of everyone, for us. Now, will you join me or not?"
Tommy pondered but eventually gave in with a grumble. "Fine, we better stop by at Tubbo's place when we're heading out"
"Deal."
° ° °
"If you need anything just let me know," Niki said in a soft voice, pressing her hand against your neck, checking if you have a fever. "Niki- I'm not sick so it's okay!" Despite your words, she still looked somewhat puzzled. As if she couldn't connect something but was restricted to tell you. "Well, alright! I'll be at my cottage so just ping me whenever"
"Alright" You responded. "I'll make sure to keep that in mind" She smiled, turning to exit your room. "Is she doing okay?" Tubbo asked in a worried tone, earning a nod from the passing female. "Thank god.." Sighing, he walked in once Niki left the room. The goat hybrid came closer to where you sat on your bed, his hands behind his back.
"Tubbo?"
"Yeahhhhhh?" He dragged his words along, smiling happily as if he's waiting for you to ask what he was hiding, it made you laugh. "Haha, what's in your hand?"
"Oh, this?!" Tubbo happily revealed the flower crown, one that he crafted himself. It took a few hours, but he was able to pick out your favorite flowers on his way back during their exposition. "Wait... Is that for me-" He nodded, gently placing the flower crown on your head. "It suits you! I hope you like it"
"Like it? I LOVE IT TUBBO! Thank you! When did you even have time to make this?" You asked, earning a confident 'hah' from the boy. "I was able to pick out a few of your favorite flowers on our way back. I saw them so I asked Wilbur if I was allowed to bring them home"
Too sweet, you thought. Tubbo was a child who always looked at you with stars in his eyes. It was as if you were one of the many thousands of pulsars that adorned the limitless sky, something that he always admired. "Look I even made one for me, so now we match," He said as he showed his own, one that was decorated in yellow, black, and white flowers.
"How does it look?" Tubbo asked with a sheepish smile. "It looks amazing" You returned the same expression, causing the boy to laugh in satisfaction. "Fuck yeah!"
"Tubboooooooo" Fundy said as he peeked from the door, waving at both you and the male. "We gotta go out now, didn't you say you wanted bees for your bee farm?"
"OH YEAH!"
"Bee farm-" You stared at the brunette with a baffled look on your face. "Oh sorry I didn't tell you, but I'm planning to make a bee farm! I love bees"
Smiling, you waved both of them off. It was always nice to hear Tubbo express his liking for bees. You couldn't blame him for liking them, after all, they were cute when they didn't viciously attack you. "Man now I feel fucking old" You muttered, falling back onto your pillows. "Not to mention, everyone has something to do apart from me"
'Damn that just makes me seem like a freeloader' You thought in your head, smirking at how stupid it was. "Wait I could help farm the Nether Warts-" With that, you quickly changed your clothes and head towards the Nether Portal room. 'I could at least do this. And if I get caught I could just say that I'm preparing ingredients for future potions that I'll be brewing.'
You praised yourself, patting your hand against your right shoulder with a smug smile. 'I'm so smart'
Minutes passed, and you've been working away with growing the Nether Wart farm that's been installed beside the Portal. You managed to harvest at least a stack or two before you became tired. It was more tiring than you expected, but you didn't care. Being able to move around was better than sitting in a singular spot.
"Farming Nether Wart sure is tiring huh?" A male voice asked. "It sure is, takes a lot more strength to pull them out compared to normal crops." You replied, groaning. "That may be true but did you know you could easily harvest them if you heated the roots with lava?"
"Oh, rea- WHAT THE FUCK" You realized how familiar the voice was once your brain started to regain energy after all the moving. "You scared the shit out of me Clay-"
"My bad~" He smirked, pushing himself off of the Nether Portal that was.. lit again..? But how, how did the portal appear again? "Since when did that portal reopen?" You questioned, walking past the male who was outstretching his arms, expecting a hug. "How the hell is this..-"
"Rude, I didn't even get a hello how are you hug?" You glared back at him, nodding to the portal that you were curious about, silently telling him to explain himself. "I wanted to see you again, so I thought I should light it."
"Light it? Are you saying you were the one to destroy that portal in the first pla-"
[SLAM]
You stiffened in your spot, back pressing against the wall as you feel Clay's staggered breaths fan over your face. "You know... You should be grateful I came all the way here just to see you, on top of that with an.." He stumbled forward, body leaning over yours as he continued to breathe heavily.
"Hey, are you oka- CLAY YOU'RE BLEEDING-"
"It's fine." The man breathed out, lips dangerously close to your neck. "What do you mean it's fine?! Let me heal you with potions are you insane?!"
"Just.." His voice softened, body slowly getting smaller and smaller. "Let me rest.."
[POOF]
'Huh' You stood there confused, a gust of wind blowing in your direction. He was gone, and what was left was a white blob that happily pressed its cheeks against your neck. "What the- FU-"

More Crime Accesory. Let's see what sort of exaggerated miscommunication we can get into this time.
...
Popular Demand
Tw for caps, dehuminization,
...
Techno kind of just thought the necklace was cute on him, but magic? And a... little dude? Truly a bargain. The voices seemed to like him too.
RANBOOOOO
POP
YOOOOOOO
PROTECT
PROTECT
PROTECT
Unusual... the voices hate everything.
But this magic item must be REALLY good if even the voices want him to be gentle with it. Wearing his new necklace, new small person on his belt, Techno rides away from the town hopefully before anyone notices the lack of wanted posters.
But eventually, Techno got back to his cabin, buried in trees and snow. By far his favorite thing about the house was that Phil also lived in it.
"Hey, mate," Phil opened the door. His welding googles gleamed on top of his striped hat. He must have been making something. "Back so soon?"
"The town sheriff was looking at me funny," Techno brushed off, going inside. As a nether beast himself, he didn't prefer the cold. Which was strange to most people, as he chose to live in a year round winter. "I got the copper, the basil, lilies, and a cool necklace."
"Ooh! Let me see!"
Techno put Ranboo's bottle on the table and pulled out the necklace to show off from under his shirt. While the blue was more greenish normally, it gleamed more purple in the light.
Phil raised his eyebrows and pointed at Ranboo. "I hate to break it to you, Techno, but that is not a necklace."
"No, but this is!" Techno pulled thr necklace out a bit more so Phil could see.
"What is that?" Phil tapped on the glass. Ranboo was remarkably still.
"Yeah, got a magic item for twenty gold," Techno bragged. "There was just a dude inside of it, and he can make people invisible and make them tell the truth."
Phil blinked, leaning in closer. His wings twitched in excitement, even his torn one fluttered a bit. "He looks... almost human. I don't know how someone could accomplish that on pure magic."
"But he came out of the necklace too," Techno pointed out. As an artificer Phil knew more about the magic item crap, but he wanted to help too. "Does that mean anything?"
"I bet if I put him under my microscope I could decipher-"
Techno clutched his head, doubling over. The voices did NOT like that one.
NOOOOOOOO
PROTECT
RANBOOO
NOT THE BOI!
NOT RANBOOOO
For the first time Ranboo moved, scattering as far as he could from the writhing Techno as he could in the potion bottle. Oh yeah.
"I don't think that's a good idea..." Techno groaned, feeling light headed as he straightened himself. "Let's keep him in one piece for the time being. We got a jar or something?"
"I might have an old candle lantern..." Phil kept talking from the other room. "DO you know how to take care of... small magic humans?"
"Not in the slightest." Techno shook his head.
Phil came back in the room with an empty metal lantern. It was ornate, and it looked like Phil put a bit of cotton inside.
"We've got to get another hand for this..." Phil dumped Ranboo out on his hand, unlocking the door in tossing him into the lantern. "I'll send a letter to Wil to see if he knows anything... I'm DYING to know what it is!"
Phil went into the other room, Techno hearing puffs of whatever contraption or potion he was making next. Techno took the lantern and put it on his window sill.
"You need anything?" Techno asked. Magic beings should know what magic beings need, right?
Having a magic item was exhausting, like having a new pet you knew nothing about.
Ranboo opened his mouth before shutting it and quietly shaking his head. Techno shrugged and went to his room.
He took the necklace off, putting it on his night stand.
GO BAAACK
GIVE IT BACK TO THE BOI
POP
LITERALLY SO SAD RN
Techno grunted, turning in his bed. "Be specific or I'm ignoring you."
The voices continued their clamor, but were only ever vague in what they wanted. "Okay, I'm ignoring you now."
Techno pressed his pillow to his ears, wishing that it would quiet the voices down. This would be a long night.

c!Dream n c!Wilbur fighting over who's c!Tommy's brother? Brothers (affectionate) vs brothers (derogatory) >:) aka for the prompts -Inniter
[Give me Primeboys Prompts]
Inniter my beloved /p
I love that prompt!
Okay, this got seriously long, wow. I put everything under the cut:
Tommy had been running. Dream was out of prison. He was out of prison and he was behind him, but Tommy couldn't think about that, he just had to run.
Suddenly, a beacon of hope appeared. Just a few meters away stood Techno's cabin and there, just outside, was Wilbur.
Tommy pulled together the last remanents of energy he had after running the whole night and sprinted over to his brother, yelling out his name. "Wilbur, Wilbur, Wilbur! Help!". His throat was sore from all the begging he did, pleading for mercy with a monster who didn't even know what that was, but he didn't care. He needed Wilbur to see him and save him and tuck him behind his back protectively like he did when they were kids.
Wilbur startled, but when he saw the battered and bruised figure of his brother coming out from the forest yelling for him, he pulled out his bow and quiver from his inventory and immediately aimed an arrow behind Tommy, at whatever was chasing him.
There was a beat of silence where nothing happened. Tommy was shaking, standing slightly behind Wilbur as he hugged himself.
"What? Tommy, what was chasing you?" Wilbur asked as nothing seemed to happen. Tommy made a frustrated sound. "Dream! He was there! He's- he's trying to make me look crazy, but I'm not. I'm fucking not. Please Wilbur, please, you have to believe me! You have to-" "I believe you" Wilbur said instantly. There was a glint in Tommy's eyes that Wilbur hoped to never see there, a desperation to be heard, to not be dismissed as insane. Recognition of the self in the other as a pompous asshole would say.
Turning again toward the forest Wilbur yelled "Dream! I know you're there! Come out already you coward".
A sinister chuckle filled the air as Dream stepped out of the shadow. "Come now Wilbur, is that really any way to greet your savior?".
Wilbur glanced behind him. There was a deep gash on Tommy's arms, multiple little cuts from running through the foliage, and a bruise around his neck. Wilbur gritted his teeth "You're no savior, you're just a bastard". Dream chuckled again and waved him off "Same difference".
"Just leave me alone" Tommy begged. Wilbur had never heard him so close to tears. He didn't know if it was the exhaustion or the desperation that got to him, but that was a tone he never wanted to hear again from his little brother.
"What, with that pathetic excuse of a human being you insist on calling your brother?" Dream sneered. He took a threatening step forward, and Wilbur immediately shot. It was just an arrow to the shoulder, just a warning, but Dream raised his hands and stepped back regardless.
"I may be pathetic, but at least I'm not a child abuser" Wilbur retorted. Tommy took in a sharp breath at that that Wilbur refused to interpret in any way.
"Oh come on! I never abused Tommy. I was just teaching him to behave since you never did. And it was fun! Wasn't it Tommy? We had fun together!" Dream insisted. His tone had taken a weird inflection as he addressed Tommy, one that Wilbur had never heard before. It was soft and fond, but somehow wrong at the same time. It was finding the scent of flowers in the Nether.
"Fuck off! You weren't teaching me shit, you were just hurting me!" Tommy protested indignantly. Dream's head cocked to the side "And he didn't?" he asked pointing at Wilbur. Tommy stayed silent. It hurt like an arrow to the back, but it wasn't a lie. "That's what I thought. At least with me you know you'll always be my first choice, with him though you'll always be the last priority. After L'Manburg, after his own self-destructive plans, after Ranboo, after his petty rivalries" Dream continued, counting out each one of Wilbur's failures on his fingers.
"Oh please! I'm not perfect, but I'm not the one who killed Tommy three times. With you, he always comes after your own ambitions". He saw Tommy flinch at the reminder of his deaths and he mentally noted that he'd need to apologize later. For the time being though, what was important was to keep Dream from spouting his rhetoric unchallenged.
"He wouldn't have lost his first two lives if you hadn't made him into a child soldier, Wilbur". "I'm not the one who decided to declare war on a pacifist nation just because I couldn't give up even one sliver of control!" they kept going like that back and forth for a while. It was strongly reminiscent of just a few months prior when he was shouting at Quackity from the middle of a lake, thinking about nothing but himself.
That wasn't the case this time though. Wilbur was aware that he wouldn't be able to take Dream on in a fight. He had a chance if he managed to keep the man at a distance, but, even then, Dream was also a good shot, and he could have aimed at Tommy. And it was just a matter of time before the man realized it. Which meant that there was only one other option: stalling. And it worked.
Awoken by the noise, Phil and Techno both emerged from the cabin fully decked out in netherite armor. Dream stepped back on instinct. Dream took one last glance at the situation before the black dots of his mask fixed on Tommy "See you later⁓" he singsonged, then he threw an ender pearl and he was out of there.
For once words truly did prevail over violence. Wilbur was immensely glad for it, he was certain that Tommy has had enough of violence for the day already. "Come on Toms, let's go patch you up"

Finding Family
Probably the one and only SMP Minecraft fic I'll make.... probably. Join us with Tommy and Tubbo, two borrowers living out in the wilds. Borrowers, Fae etc. Creatures are rare and sought after by wealthy people. Giants (Humans and some Hybrids) are considered monsters to borrowers, and often feared. Comms are a thing for everyone. @baka-monarch you wanted to be tagged.
Warning: Abandonment, blood, implied burning, growth in small areas, near death experience, near crushed experience, Technoblade.
Tommy and Tubbo weren't bad kids, they were young with no parents. They were taught the rules by strangers who abandoned them the moment they could borrow.
They were born in captivity and sold to a rich child with a fascination with hurting things, if by Tommy's missing wings and Tubbo's scared face had anything to do with it.
People didn't stay with them for long.
Tommy was always too loud and Tubbo too easy, and they only stuck together.
They were a bit upset at being alone but both deemed to not need anyone else.
The two decided to leave and find another place to live, somewhere not many monsters dare to go. The Artic.
Tubbo built their first house, near a tree close but not part of the forest. Tommy began the underground gardening system which Tubbo ended up making it automatic, but continued to make touches and railroad tracks into caves and mines.
They hunted rabbits in the area for meat, and often take from the near by village.
One day though, Tubbo noticed an abandoned cottage near the village and quickly messaged Tommy about it, who immediately agreed to scoping it out for a hideout.
After gathering their supplies for the day, they went to explore the cottage.
There was a small enough crack in the door frame the the two borrowers to slip into. They froze at the large still warm room.
It wasn't dusty, so it couldn't be more than a few days that someone had been there. Tommy was a bit confused about it seeing as he would have noticed someone pass through here.
Tubbo pointed out that they lived near a forest and most people avoid them, but froze at the sound of a clatter.
Tubbo, with the better ears could hear aggressive whispering, "Someone is in my house Phil, the door didn't open, where are they?"
Tubbo nodded to his friend and pulled him closer to the counter and skimmed closer to the wall, taking out his hook, he and Tommy climbed up the counter at his urging.
Tommy made it first seeing three of their kind, "Sup Bitches!"
Tubbo made it up in time to see three grown men jump in fear, examining each one as Tommy talked.
The tallest looked to be a piglin Hybrid, the smaller usually stay in the Nether where their known about and treated equally. He wore a surprisingly nice long sleeve blue shirt and cloak.
The next looked human but his features suggest he's a piglin as well...just more human looking. He wore a similar cloak and shirt and the tall one.
The final man was shorter than Tommy, he had wings which was surprising in itself. That he still kept them after all, he wore a similar shirt but instead of a cloak he was a ponch and a bucket hat. What startled Tubbo, was that he seemed to be studying them like he was them.
There eyes met briefly as Tommy waved his arm in front of him sounding heated, causing him to tone in.
"I'm calling as I see it! The old man's gonna get it if he doesn't stop staring at my friend!"
"For someone so small, why are you so loud? Don't call us pets!" The middle one growled out.
"Where's the monster of this place anyway, we've never noticed anyone coming to and from here." Tubbo interrupted.
He watched the tallest flinch as the shortest puffed up angrily ready to defend their owner when Tommy interrupted, "Tubs, they could be one of those people."
Tubbo flinched, and looked at the older men, "Surely Not, Big Man, something is off about them but we can leave if you want."
"What! After you insult us! What kinds of people!?"
"Monster apologists, their pets who do anything for their Master. Even capture more of our kind, we've been here to long, let's go." Tommy led the way, leaving the shocked men on their counter top.
Tubbo stares at them, "Do you not have a rope to climb down? I didn't see and ledges and stuff to move around on."
The shortest still glared but it soften a bit, "I can get us down, where do you live? Can we visit?"
Tubbo looked down at Tommy as his friend shook his head no, "We'll visit you."
The kid jumped, catching the rope instead of plummeting to his doom. The three men looked over the ledge with eyes in shock as Tubbo pulled his hook down.
Tommy grinned up, "Have fun with your Monster folks!"
His friend yanked him along as the middle one made offended noises, something not sitting right as they squeezed through the door and made their way home.
"Tommy, I think they were in captivity. They didn't know how to react to us and two of them were piglin Hybrids, they probably got sold."
"Poor blokes, we'll visit them tomorrow, I'll apologize to them too." He didn't want to, but even he was a victim of only knowing monsters.
Tubbo began to start dinner, it becoming darker and darker outside.
========
The snow beginning to pick up, Tommy was working on his stone sword when someone knocked on the door.
Tubbo had a hunch on who it was.
He was correct when three familiar faces were shown shocked at the sight of them, "If you're coming in, please hurry."
Tommy shut the door with a knowing look as the grown men inspected their home, "So you two live alone? How old are you seven?"
Tubbo could hear the concern but Tommy huffed, "We are fifteen thank you very much! What about you old people? Huh? Ancient?"
"Well let's introduce ourselves huh? I'm Wilbur, I'm the very charismatic of the bunch. My brother here is Technoblade, he's the fighter. Here's the old man, Philza or Phil."
Tubbo can just feel Tommy roll his eyes, "I'm Tommy the handsomest in the whole land and the biggest man, and over there is Tubbo, he is my best friend and brother. Wilbur, your names shit, I hope you know that."
Tubbo continued to say nothing as he finished making dinner and Tommy continued, "So, how did you end up in a mon-"
"Before you finish that sentence, Mate? What monster and why do you call him that?" The newly dubbed Phil asked.
Tubbo answered as he approached, "That's what our kind call big folk, you know, giants? Human and Hybrids? They're monsters, all of them."
Wilbur narrowed his eyes, "How about size shifters? Reckoned they're good."
Tommy tilted his head, "Haven't met one that wanted to shrink to our size, seen a few go Titanic but they tried to kill everyone."
Tubbo might have been the only one to see the oldest man frown a bit before smiling, "How about you two show us how to survive, like without the big folk."
Tommy caught on to the fact he didn't say Monster but said nothing, "Don't know, you three are pets-"
"We are not pets!" Technoblade finally spoke, his eyes peering down at Tommy and him being unfazed.
Tubbo sighed, he honestly didn't know what to think about the implications he was getting but no harm in being prepared, to bad this was the last time he'd think on it.
For a moment, the other teen seem to contemplate it.
Tommy's face finally grew Stony, "Nope, you're better off as pets or being self taught. You can spend the night but leave after."
Unfortunately, years of being abandoned is still a fresh wound.
Wilbur tried reasoning, "You're the only ones we've met like us! We've no idea how to do things on our own! Also if we run away-"
"You'll lead your monster straight to us and get us all caught, I'm not risking our lives like that." It was rare that Tommy put his foot down, but even rarer for Tubbo to object.
"If we don't, they could still tell their Monster where we are." Tommy looked shocked but resigned.
Technoblade looking a bit uncomfortable before speaking again, "He wouldn't bother you even if he did know."
"Whatever helps you sleep at night."
"Riiiight."
====An image of drawn on wings appears on Tommy's back and tears on Tubbo's face.====
It started off slow, teaching basics of climbing and mending clothes first. Technoblade was great at mending, nearly on par with Tubbo. And he and Wilbur both Excell at climbing. Philza was actually on par with Tubbo for mending and pretty decent at climbing without rope, though he had wings he referred to it as handicapping himself.
They were decent in keeping up with Tommy and Tubbo themselves, but the two found that they were better fighters.
Now the teens needed fighting lessons, though the sneaking and stealing was the difficult part.
It's kinda insulting for these grown men to ask for help and not need it, and Tommy let them know.
They were sheepish as Tubbo led Techno to the farm, they bonded over the automatic farm he and Tommy created. Technoblade suggested and easier way to do it but Tubbo shook his head sadly.
"Mobs love going after our kind, not Endermen, even when we look them in the eye. But other mobs will Hunt us down. We try not to dig that deep, and avoid getting Iron ores...not that we can use them." Understanding reached the older Hybrid's eyes as Tubbo led him away.
It had been two weeks after that conversation that Tubbo finally let them see his horns, rubbing at them as they matured and needed a day.
Philza remain with him as Tommy took Techno and Wilbur hunting with him.
The elder man asking the hard questions as he made the child some tea, "Tell me, how did you get your...wounds."
Tubbo flinched and backed away from Phil before taking a deep breath, "Tommy and I...we were born and raised in captivity, we got sold to be a child's pets. They hurt Tommy so bad, then they tried to set me on fire with a torch...their mother stopped them before they touched me. But they believed me and Tommy were too...broken. so we were thrown out.
"More of our kind found us, but after teaching us what we know they left us. It's why we live outside instead of in the walls of a Monster's house...Tommy was too loud and I was too dumb to leave him."
Phil looked on the verge of tears, "You're not dumb, you're pretty wise for your age."
Before dozing off Tubbo managed to speak again, "No choice when you and yer friend are alone."
In the month, Tommy managed to let slip that he used to have wings and broke down in Tubbo's arms as the adults looked on in horror.
A child, ripping off his wings just because he asked them for an hour of rest. Then proceeded to play with said wings, nobody said anything as Phil flutted his own wings and occasionally covered the two children like a shield.
====The Next Month====
Tubbo laughed as Wilbur and Tommy shouted at each other about the best way to hunt. Phil would disappear once a week before returning with soft material for clothes, but Technoblade.
Technoblade was acting peculiar and even Tommy noticed, the two would ask if he were okay but he would nod and shoo them off.
The piglin Hybrid had been looking uncomfortable for the past few days, Phil and Wilbur seem to be waiting for something while Tubbo tried everything in his power to make him comfortable.
Tommy was concerned, not that he would show but got the material for Tubbo's gift to the older men.
For Philza, Tubbo made another ornament for his hat, a bee and raccoon.
For Wilbur, Tommy and Tubbo managed to have enough redstone for a music room. Tommy himself listen to Will play the most.
Tubbo was nervous about his gift to Techno, as Tommy gifted him a stone axe with self made design.
Tubbo, still focused on the Hybrid's discomfort, made his a pillow that looked like a ravanger. He gave a toothy grin and hugged the kid, keeping it close as he dozed off.
Tubbo will deny his tail ever wagging.
It wasn't until the next morning things made sense and seemed...bad.
Tubbo's horns hurt as Techno himself grunted in his discomfort, so they couldn't get things done.
Wilbur and Tommy got into another argument but this time about borrowing iron from the village which Phil helped Wilbur understand why not.
They were due for another hunting trip but with Technoblade and Tubbo out of commission, Phil had to go with them despite not wanting to leave the two.
Technoblade decided to stay on the couch instead of his newly added room and Tubbo remained near in case neither could handle the stairs.
When Tubbo blinked awake, it was to the noise of rushing wind and screams.
The ground shook under him as the house quaked, Pillagers
Tubbo quickly crawled over to Techno, too dizzy to stand and a shock went through his body.
The piglin Hybrid was much larger than their little couch that he slept on, Tubbo could place two hands on the older Hybrid's face and attempted to awake him.
"T..ech..no, we need to move, please wake up." Just as Tubbo stuttered that out, a booted foot came through the borrower's home, a pained and fearful cry escaped him as he missed a single red eye open.
Something wrapped around his waist, startling him as he looked up fearful at Techno.
The Hybrid looked pained as he began to expand higher through the ceiling, Tubbo watched in horrified fascination as the hand he was in curled closer to an eye.
"Tubbo, you know me, you know I'd never hurt you. Please hold on to me, I don't want you getting hurt." Tubbo's body went on autopilot as the hand was brought closer to the mon- the neck of Technoblade.
Tubbo held on as the body finally broke through the house, shielding him from danger.
A gleam brought Tubbo to attention, a light blue axe appeared in the giant's hand shimmering with unspoken enchantments. Tubbo had only heard of diamonds before, he was not disappointed.
Technoblade slashed through all his enemies, all the while keeping an eye and ear on Tubbo.
The beat of large wings alerted Tubbo to another person, Philza. The oldest coming from the air like an Angel of Death.
Tubbo could make out two people against his own throat, Tommy and Wilbur.
Unfortunately Phil didn't catch sight of him and the borrower was being grabbed in a tight fist, "Come on Mate! You're not prepared enough for this."
Technoblade's ear twitched and the scared pain Yelp, "Philza! Let go! You have Tubbo!"
The crushing weight was immediately gone as the kid took deep breaths barely hearing Techno's instructions, "Tubbo, I'm going to have to fight my way through. Hold on the best you can."
As that was said, the older hybrid began to lurch forward. Tubbo caught glimpses of Phil fighting alongside, but his focus was on not falling.
Not being ripped away wasn't part of this, a small glowing Fae creature tackled Tubbo and flew him away.
========
Tommy watched as his best friend got carried away by a Vex, "TUBBO!"
Wilbur flinched at the volume and Phil slightly stiffen but didn't falter in his fighting, Technoblade visibly looked around when it happened.
The small army was thinning down as the two watched out for the vex with the ram Hybrid, carefully taking out other vexes that went for Tommy or Wilbur.
Techno knew there was one left as bodies turned to emeralds, but the snow began to become blinding and Tubbo's scent getting fainter.
Phil had to physically drag him to the cabin, Wilbur had grew to his full size and started a fire and proceeded to hold Tommy.
Who was using all his energy in fighting Wilbur's hand, "I have to find Tubbo! Wilbur let go!"
The small being froze as Techno and Phil entered the space, "Don't worry Tommy, we'll find him. But we'll be useless in this weather."
Phil attempted to comfort, suddenly feeling too large compared to the child. The man can barely see his facial features, but even he could tell that he was terrified.
The silence was thick and tension high and the broken voice to an all too small child spoke up, "So... this is it? You...you really got us to trust you-"
Wilbur knew where this was going, "Tommy, Tommy no-*
"You shithead's are really fucked up! What next? Am I a pet? Did you honestly sell Tubbo!?" Tommy continued, the only one about to tell he's crying was Wilbur.
Techno didn't say anything as Tommy yelled, guilt too strong in his gut. He slowly turned to the window, the snow falling harshly as Tubbo got farther and farther.
They were getting Tubbo back.
========
Tubbo wasn't feeling well, his head throbbed because of his horns and he was cold. His cagemate wasn't much better so he can't complain.
Enderfae were quite rare on the market, Tubbo had only met one that he called The Captain. Well sorta, he was of Dragon variety.
Tubbo doesn't like to think what happened to him.
The Enderfae was crying, as the Pillager added their cage to his wall. A pillager outpost.
"HHey, it'll be okay, I'll find a way out of this. My... family will come for us." Tubbo tried to soothe knowing that he was making empty promises.
"Its okay, I've come to terms with this the moment I got captured. I hope my friends are okay. My name's Ranboo."
"I'm Tubbo."
========
The cabin was dark, Wilbur slept curled around a pillow which held a borrower.
A borrower who's trust they destroyed...one of two.
Upon closer inspection, you could see the tear stains down his face. Filling the larger three with guilt, sympathy, and rage.
Technoblade added more Regen and Health Potions to his pack, his old red cloak was taken from the closet and put on. A large netherite axe lay strapped to his back along with his trusty trident.
His bright golden crown lay on his head once again as he readjusted his armor.
He stood in full netherite armor, his hair lay hazardous around his head. Stiffening as hands began to braid it into a ponytail.
"Be careful Technoblade, Tubbo is fragile compared to me and Wil. He might be afraid, try not to hurt him and try not to get hurt." Philza warned.
Techno responded in a snort, He was the Blood God, of course he'll be careful
========
Technoblade isn't always the lovable dope he shows his family, he was ruthless, dangerous, and incredibly protective.
Everyone knew of him, but very few knew him.
When something happens to his family, he hunts down the threat and if it's killable...need he continue?
A pillager kidnapped his little brother, his pack, and expects not to be hunted down like prey? Pillagers are not known for brilliance.
"Technoblade?!" A familiar voice rang out behind him, a feral growl escaped him.
Dream, Sapnap and George ran up to him. All equipped in their own armour, oddly enough Dream was without his mask and tear stains on his face.
They hesitated, they each had seen Technoblade in his most feral and bloodthirsty before, so they new to be cautious.
Sapnap spoke in Piglin, "Techno? Did something happen to Wilbur and Phil?"
"New Pack, Pillagers took him!" It was no secret that Feral Technoblade couldn't speak common, but it was still a surprise each time someone heard it.
Sapnap nodded, "We'll help, Pillagers stole my Inferno. Work together?"
The trio watched as the Piglin Hybrid nodded in agreement, it had been a while since they teamed up. What better way than to save family.
~~~~~~~~
Tubbo and Ranboo talked quietly, trying to brighten their seemingly dark future.
Ranboo talked about what he remembered before being bought by his Haunting, then finally trusting them and calling them his.
Tubbo spoke of his Herd, how he met the older three and how he knew one was just giant. How he observed them long enough to trust them, and their names.
Both promising the other that if they live or die that the other tell their family.
Not that it was necessary, about three minutes later an alarm went off, alerting the occupant of intruders.
Hope filled the two as yells of fear and agony echoed through the building, scaring the Evoker that captured them.
The pillager didn't have time to cast a spell when a familiar face burst through the doorway.
Tubbo could see the rage in his red eyes, but his happiness clouded judgement.
"Techno!"
For a moment, his rage cleared only for it to return full force at the Evoker.
Not long after that, he was struck down and Technoblade gently took the cage off the wall. He noticed the Enderfae and looked around for others.
His clawed hand wrapped around the small cage at the sight of small bones and jarred tiny insides, the only other living thing in the room was a small zombie Piglin hybrid in a jar next to the taxidermy book.
He took the jar and opened it, grabbed the child and opened Tubbo's cage and passed them to him.
As the building began to burn, Technoblade left just as fast as he arrived.
Tubbo watched as Ranboo called out to three individuals, he recognized one being a Mushroom hybrid but not the other two.
The baby zombie Piglin Hybrid curled next to him, both shivered just realizing the cold.
The bandana wearing man looked to Technoblade, "I can carry them if you want, keep them warm. You did agree to let us spend the night at your place."
He didn't understand the snorts and grunts but it seemed like the baby did because he copied.
That brought a soft smile to the bandana boy and Technoblade, the later grinned at Tubbo.
Soon they were on the move again. Tubbo and Ranboo huddled the baby Piglin, more relieved than before that they were saved.
========
Tommy hadn't eaten anything since Tubbo was taken, he hadn't interacted nor did he call Wilbur name and claim he was bald.
The two sizeshifter knew deep down that he wouldn't get better unless Tubbo was with them again.
The front door swung open revealing a steaming Sapnap holding something against his chest with the protective determination that was only in reserve for his friends and family.
Soon the rest of Dream Team and Technoblade entered the cabin, they were covered in soot smudges and looked exhausted.
Phil could see Tommy stiffen and move further from the door but settled on Technoblade, "Tubbo?"
Sapnap moved his arms to reveal a small cage with three small beings inside, one Phil recognized immediately.
"Tubbo!" Philza approached the younger man, who backed away at the same time as Ranboo flinched.
But the old man was patient, and the cage was released again, this time Tubbo was halfway through the door and jumping into Phil's hands.
"Hi Phil! Where's Tommy!?" Tubbo looked exhausted as well.
As gently as well as fast as he could, Phil brought his hands on the table so Tubbo could run to Tommy.
"Tubbo!"
"Tommy!"
The duo hugged until Tubbo passed out and caused a mass panic from everyone but Ranboo.
It wasn't ideal, but it was a new beginning for the clingyduo.

The scene with Wilbur in Quackity’s latest lore stream made me Think some Thoughts, and I wanted to get all of my SBI family headcanons together in one place, so here’s this post
First thing, this is their age order:
Philza -> Techno/Wilbur -> Tubbo -> Ranboo -> Tommy
- Techno and Wilbur were born on the same day, so most of the family refers to them as “the twins” but they are not blood related
- Philza did not know how old Techno was when they were ruling the Antarctic Empire, he thought that Techno was around 21 when he was actually around 14-16
- this is a fact that haunts Phil to this day, because he committed a massive amount of war crimes with an actual child, and also for reasons that will soon become very clear
Philza and Techno
- they’re married
- they got married with them each thinking that the other was close to their own age (Phil thought Techno was in his early 20’s, Techno thought Phil was in his late teens)
- for more on their marriage, check out this post
- despite Techno and Wilbur being the same age, Techno is mentally much older due to his past and his general status as the Blood God
- Phil did most of the work raising the older kids, but Techno did his fair share, and you can definitely see his influence when you look at the kid’s behaviors
- both of them are immortal
- Techno is a new immortal, the Blood God has only just come into existence, but he isn't leaving anytime soon
- Philza is an old immortal, he was there when the world was born, and he'll be there when it dies
Wilbur
- Wilbur and Philza are the only blood relatives in the whole family
- as much as he loves him, Wilbur has always been a bit bitter towards Techno, because when they were teenagers, Techno was off ruling and adventuring and having fun with Phil during the AE, and Wil was left home with a young Tommy to look after
- Wilbur’s hair is naturally blond, just like Phil and Tommy’s
- no one knows who Wilbur’s mom is (unfortunately mpreg is the norm on this server, so Phil carried him, and he’s got some ideas on who Wil’s mom is, but he honestly doesn’t care enough to look into it)
- Wilbur has wings
- they’re much smaller than Phil’s, he can barely fly with them, but they’re the same color and shape as Phil’s
- because of how fragile his wings are, Wilbur should not technically be able to fly, but he literally sheer force of will-ed it and threw himself off the roof of their house so many times that he can glide when he jumps from high places, and if it’s a really high place, he can get in a few good flaps of his wings to get him some extra distance
- Phil doesn’t learn that Wilbur can semi-fly/glide until one day they’re off adventuring together and Wil is being dramatic and theatrical and walking backwards while he talks, and he falls off a cliff
Tommy
- Tommy has been with them since he was a few days old
- because of his light features, most people assume that he is Phil’s son by blood, and he just didn’t inherit the wings
- (at ages 10 and 16, Tommy and Wilbur did the blood-brothers handshake where they cut their palms and then shook hands, so if you ask them, they’re blood brothers through and through)
- Techno taught Tommy how to sew
- Tommy is a young god, but he hasn’t grown into most of his powers yet
- Tommy is a god of death, the future Death himself, Kristen is his mother
- (this is how Phil comes into possession of him. Phil, being the Angel of Death, was really the only reasonable choice when it came to Death herself finding someone to raise her son)
- Tommy has light features, even though Mumza has dark features, because she purposefully made him out of the light, she wanted him to be good and kind, so she created him from the literal light that you see when you're dying
- because he was born from the actual moment of death, despite Tommy's eyes being blue, they hold the void itself in them
- if you look too closely into Tommy's eyes, it can be easy to lose yourself and fall right in
- sometimes Mumza comes to visit, these are very bittersweet moments for Tommy
- he loves his mom, and he loves seeing her and seeing Phil happy to see her, and she usually takes him along on her next trip, ever so slowly teaching him how to be Death, but he also hates that that is his future
- he doesn't want to be the next Death, he doesn't want to outlive all of his friends and his brother, he just wants to be normal
- because of this, Tommy represses pretty much all of his godly powers, trying to seem as normal as possible, the one he represses the most is his automatic healing, when he gets hurt, he wants to stay hurt
- he represses everything so well that its years before Tubbo finds out that his best friend is a god
Ranboo
- Techno raised Ranboo more than Phil did
- (because of this, he’s the only kid who actually views Techno as his father. Despite him literally being their stepdad, the others see Techno as more of a brother or an uncle)
- Techno found Ranboo when he was around 12 years old on the edge of a warped forest in the nether (if you want some more nether-boys hc’s, check out this post)
- at that age, Ranboo hadn’t hit his growth spurt yet due to malnutrition, so he was much smaller than the average human 12 year old, and everyone thought he was around 8-10 (because of his memory issues, Ranboo thought the same thing until Tommy kept pestering him about when his birthday was and he remembered the year)
- Ranboo is brought into the family when he’s 12, Tommy is 11, and Wilbur and Techno are 17
- as I said before, Techno may have been 17 when he took in Ranboo, but he was definitely a father to this anxious amnesiac preteen
- because of his height, Ranboo is constantly slouching to fit through doorways, inside houses, and to make himself appear smaller, so he grows to need a cane
Tubbo (and Dream)
- street cat
- they fed him once and he just kept coming back
- sometimes he’ll disappear for a few weeks, but he always turns up eventually
- boy’s got some family issues, some real bad family issues
- his dad is Schlatt, who left him and big brother Dream to fend for themselves when he and Dream were 6 and 11
- luckily Dream has an excellent sense of direction and memory, and got them to Aunt Puffy’s current port before she pushed off on her next adventure (but not before getting briefly separated and making some friends)
- (the few weeks they spend separated are when Tubbo first gets found by Wilbur and Tommy and forcibly adopted by Phil, and Bad lures Dream home with food and he meets Sapnap)
- both boys have ram features - floppy ears, horns, etc., Dream also inherited their Aunt Puffy's rainbow hair (he dyes it blonde semi-regularly. It's dyed when he meets sbi, and Wilbur and Techno have the exact same reaction to it when they finally see his natural hair: relentless teasing. Like father like son amiright?)
- Tubbo and Dream are half brothers (same dad, different moms), Tubbo is 1/2 ram and 1/2 human, Dream is 1/2 human, 1/4 ram, and 1/4 what he and Sapnap think is demon (basically Dream had a human-ram hybrid dad, and a human-demon(?) hybrid mom)
- when Tubbo introduces Dream to his new brother-in-law, Dream feels a bit of a kindred spirit, but he quickly brushes it off
- Dream spends most of his time either with Bad, Skeppy, and Sapnap, or on the sea with Puffy, so Tubbo mostly fends for himself
- Tubbo is more than happy to fend for himself, he actually prefers it most of the time. He doesn't like people fussing over him and sheltering him, so whenever his mood switches and he decides that he does, actually, want some family time, he just appears on sbi’s front porch
- Tubbo first meets Ranboo when he comes to visit after a few months away. No one told him that Tommy was with Mumza for the weekend, so when he arrived at 3am, 2 days before he told Phil he’d be there, he just let himself in and threw himself on top of the sleeping figure in Tommy’s bed, only to be met with a startled enderman screech that woke the whole house
- (Ranboo was in Tommy’s bed because he might not be a part of the official Clingy Duo, but the boy is as clingy as they come. He regularly sleeps in his family’s beds, both when they’re home and when they’re away, because his sense of smell is heightened as an enderman and he needs to be surrounded in their scent when he misses them or when he’s feeling sad (especially because these are the only scents he knows, he doesn’t remember any of the scents from before Techno found him))
Big brothers being friends
- one day, after Tubbo’s near-constant raving about how great the Minecraft family is, Dream agrees to visit with him
- this visit happens to fall during the AE, so the only ones home are Wilbur and Tommy
- Dream and Wilbur take one look at each other and their similar situations in raising their chaotic, problem-child little brothers, and never let go
- the four of them live together for a good 5-6 months before Dream gets a letter and he and Tubbo need to leave
- after this visit, Dream and Wilbur stay in contact, and they visit each other even without their brothers around to drag them along
- I know I said that Wilbur makes fun of Dream for dying his hair, but that’s only in public
- in private, Wilbur confesses to Dream that he also dyes his hair, that his hair is naturally blond and he dyes it darker. After this, Dream and Wilbur start dying their hair together, it becomes something scheduled that they both look forward to immensely each month
- the next time Dream and Tubbo visit together, Wilbur is off with a water spirit who stole his heart (I refuse to write about fish Sally, fight me), and Phil is showing Ranboo some cool builds in his current hardcore world, so it's Techno and Tommy who welcome them in
- Techno starts out pretty hesitant of Dream, but Dream almost instantly is like
- "I'm gonna annoy the blood god into being my best friend"
- and whatever Dream sets his mind to, he achieves
- so the visit sort of ends with Dream and Techno making Tommy and Tubbo promise not to burn the house down, and leaving them home alone to go off to cause some chaos together
Father/son relationships
- As I said earlier, Phil primarily raised Wilbur and Tommy, and Techno primarily raised Ranboo, with Tubbo coming in and out like a feral cat
- to Wilbur and Tommy, Techno is more of a cool uncle who brings them valuable trinkets from his adventures, and they want to be like him one day
- Ranboo and Phil’s relationship is almost exactly the same as Wilbur and Tommy’s relationship with Techno
- when Techno brought Ranboo home, Phil pretty much decided that he had his hands full enough with raising his two chaotic boys, and he declared that it was finders-keepers, Techno found Ranboo, so he gets to raise him
- after L’Manburg, Ghostbur and Phil learn sign language, because the explosion blew out Phil’s hearing in his left ear, and Ghostbur’s so soft-spoken that it’s sometimes really difficult for him to hear his son speaking
For more random hc’s I have about these characters and the characters of the smp in general, check out this post

i can’t draw but i can write, so here is what i have for the mcyt/dream smp fandom. (inspired by a lot of fanart i have seen) 
3k words baby. i was going to do a second half but i’m tired so i’ll write it tomorrow
anyway here is dadza collecting his boys
--
Philza had always known he wanted to be a dad, but with adventures and quests, he hardly had the time. So he made the difficult decision to wait until one day he had the time to properly care for and raise a child (or children) of his own. But circumstances and his own paternal instinct seemed to decide for him when was the perfect time for him to finally become a father. 
The day he found his eldest, he was passing through an abandoned village. They were common in the parts of the world where Philza was known for exploring, which created a sad but beautiful landscape. Philza had always had an appreciation for the forgotten towns, so he made sure if and when he saw them, he travelled through. While he felt a touch of guilt when rummaging through items that were forgotten in a haste and deemed disposable, that never stopped him from opening every house and chest to find goods. There were occasions where he forgot a small home, or didn’t see a chest or two, but that day was not one. Philza was being careful and made sure to open every door. 
A quiet shuffle and the tiniest whimper caught his attention, and he poked his head around the corner. Curled up, as small as he could, was a boy. Dressed in a dirtied, no-longer-yellow sweater, with a holey maroon beanie over long curls. He tried squeezing behind a chest next to him, and Philza could feel his heart break as the small boy started to cry.
“P-please, don’t h-hurt me.” His voice was tiny, broken, and one again Philza felt his chest tighten. This tiny thing couldn’t have been more than 4 or 5, and already looked terrified of the world. Philza quickly hid his sword in his pack, taking off his helmet to reveal his own hat and hair in need of cutting.
“It’s okay, little man. I promise I won’t. My name’s Philza.” He squatted down, and reached a hand out slowly. He quickly retracted it though when he remembered he had an apple in his bag. He swung his pack to be in front of him, unzipping it. “You hungry?” The small boy slowly looked up, wide and teary brown eyes watching as Philza moved to pull a bright red apple out. He nodded rapidly, curls falling out of the front of his beanie into his eyes. The boy crawled over to Philza, then sat cross-legged in front of him, patiently waiting for the apple. Philza let out a soft laugh, before handing him the apple. 
“Thank you, Philza.” The words were muffled by the apple already in his mouth. Philza laughed again before dropping his own butt onto the ground, to mirror the boy.
“What’s your name, little man?” Philza had his own apple in hand, moving to bite into it.
“Wilbur.” The young boy looked proud as he said his name, promptly taking another bite of the apple. 
“Well then, Wilbur,” the decision was made almost immediately, as soon as he saw the young boy really, “would you like to come adventure with me?” Wilbur visibly sat up straighter, excitement in his eyes. 
“Hell yeah!” Apple was spat out as Wilbur scrambled to his feet in excitement.
It only took three months for Wilbur to start calling Phil “dad”.
---
His second child was under far more surprising and saddening circumstances.
An seven-year-old Wilbur bounced along in front of Philza, swinging his iron sword pretending to be defeating zombies. As he swung his sword, he once again recounted how he battled three zombies in the cave earlier that day.
“I know, Will. They were no match for you!” Philza laughed as he spoke, watching with unmatched joy and pride for his son. 
“I’m the best monster fighter, dad!” Sword held above his hair, Wilbur spun to look at Philza. “I can even help you fight some zombie pig guys in the nether next time!”
“Pigmen, Will.” Wilbur rolled his eyes at the correction. “And we’ll see.” Punching their air and continuing to bounce forward, Wilbur didn’t notice the ruined step and tripped over it. Immediately, Philza rushed forward to catch his son. 
A quiet pig-like snort caught their attention, and Philza, hand still holding Wilbur’s arm where he caught him, whipped his head around, other hand reaching for his sword. He had expected to see a pigman - maybe even a zombie one - to have somehow made it into the overworld and gotten lost, but instead saw a cardboard box. Scrawled across the front of the box in a dying sharpie was the word “FREAK!”. He pushed Wilbur, who was gripping his sword tightly in both hands, behind him as he took a careful step forward. 
A tiny face popping up, giving both Philza and Wilbur a fright.
“Dad?” Wilbur’s voice was small, giving away his fear despite the confident aura he tried to portray. 
“Stay here, okay?” Philza didn’t give Wilbur a change to reply before he continued to move closer to the box. The small child within the box stood up slowly, his features becoming more clear. The snout and ears were piglin in nature, but other than those and the pink complexion, it was clear to Philza that this was simply a scared child. Much like when he approached Wilbur those years ago, Philza moved slowly, crouching in front of the box and child contained within, peeking inside to see if there was anything else within it.
In the box, being stood on by the child, was a manilla folder. It looked as though at one point it had been official, but had been muddied and chewed on periodically. The small child looked up at Philza with tears in his eyes and hands gripping the side of the cardboard box with white knuckles. Philza noticed that one of his ears was stood up, the other - a yellow cattle-tag with the letters “TB” in faded black written on it was pierced through it - was hanging, exaggerated by the fact that the small boy had his head tilted to that side. 
“Can you pass me that folder, bud?” The boy in the box blinked once before looking down at the folder. He squatted down and his stubby fingers picked up the dirtied paperwork. He stood slowly, then held it out proudly. “Thank you.” Philza smiled softly as he accepted the folder from the tiny boy. He sat in front of the box and carefully read over the words written on the cover. As he sat, Wilbur moved forward and sat next to him, watching the child carefully as he placed his sword next to him. 
The top of the folder read “Experiment #14 [unreadable] -lin and human genetic cross- [unreadable]”, with a large red “failed” stamped across the middle of the entire cover. Philza glanced at the boy sadly. An experiment, a discarded experiment, that was all he was deemed to be. He shook his head in disapproval as he opened the folder. He didn’t want to read the majority of the papers within the folder, but he wanted to at least know how old this boy was and what name he had been given.
Technoblade. It was an odd name, undoubtedly, but if that was the name he was given, who was Philza to argue. He looked at the apparent birthdate, and quickly counted back in his head to calculate his age. 
“Four?” The word was barely a breath, but Philza just could not believe that this tiny boy stranded in a box was only four years old. He had been experimented on, tested, and disposed, marked as a freak and a failure. He slammed the folder closed, turning to Wilbur. “What do you think?” Wilbur blinked, tilting his head. 
“What?” He hadn’t looked away from Technoblade since the boy had poked his head out of the box, but he finally turned to look up at his dad. 
“Think he could be your new brother? Come on adventures with us?” Just like when Philza had asked Wilbur if he himself wanted to travel with him, his whole body lit up with excitement. 
“Really? That would be awesome.” He was bouncing again. Philza breathed a laugh at Wilbur, before turning back to look at Technoblade.
“What do you think, Technoblade?” He tilted his head the other way, glancing between Wilbur and Philza. “Want to come with us?” The tiny boy thought for a second before nodding, holding his hands up to Philza, indicating he wanted to be picked up. Philza happily obliged, moving to his feet and reaching down to the excited boy, who now had a huge smile that showed off tiny tusks growing from his bottom row of teeth. He placed Techno on his hip, offered a hand to Wilbur to help him stand, and the now-trio walked away from the broken cobble stairs. 
As they walked away, Wilbur began to ramble about all the adventures he would have with his new brother, and telling him about all of the adventures past. 
It took Technoblade a month to finally start talking to Philza and Wilbur, and only four more for him to start calling him ‘dad’.
---
Dealing with two teenagers was not something that Philza had ever prepared for. Granted he had not even planned for children, but instead found the two boys that now called him dad. This meant that, of course, he never had to mentally fortify himself for any of what he was dealing with. 
Wilbur and Technoblade were constantly trying to fight mobs, and when there were no mobs, each other. Twelve and fifteen, and so much energy. Although Wilbur was slowly starting to lose that youthful energy that Techno still gripped on to. However, the day they found the third of Philza’s boys, he began to learn that some people are always fueled by a youthful energy.
Just as Philza always passed through villages old and new when he travelled alone, Techno and Wilbur had been taught to develop that same habit. Philza had sent them down the centre of the ruined village, going around the outskirts himself. He figured that while they had been travelling with him for a while, fighting mobs in the overworld and nether alike, it was better to be safe than sorry, and so decided on sending them off alone for the first time through an empty village would be best. 
Philza skirted the village, picking up crops that had grown on their own and checking small buildings the excited boys would have no doubt skipped over. He knew that the two of them together would be looking for a fight, but would also keep each other safe. They had grown very attached to each other in the eight years they had been with Philza, referring to each other as brothers. It always warmed Philza’s heart when they called him ‘dad’ or each other as brother - they had bumped into a young man with a creeper mask on his own adventure a couple of years prior and Wilbur had introduced Techno as his little brother, a memory which still makes Philza smile. 
He had made it to the centre of the village, trailing behind the boys, when he heard a scream. Less of a scream but more a shout of surprise, but Wilbur had an unfortunate voice crack in the middle of the cry and it sounded as if he had let out a short scream. Immediately, Philza sprinted towards the sound of his son’s voice, hoping that both were still together and alive. He skidded around a corner and paused.
The sight in front of him was rather amusing. A small boy with matted blonde hair and a formerly white and red shirt was blindly swinging a stone sword while shouting and swearing, while Techno had his iron sword held in front of him in both hands, and Wilbur had his by his own hanging limply by his side. Both of Philza’s sons were wearing very confused expressions. 
“You aren’t stealing my shit!! Go away!” The small boy pushed the oversized helmet resting on his head back as it had slipped in front of his eyes. “This is my house!” 
“Dude!” Technoblade attempted to calm the shouting child, but the boy was having none of it.
“Don’t ‘dude’ me. Go away!” Though amused, Philza decided it was probably time to step in between the children before someone actually started swinging a sword with the intent to seriously injure the other party. As he walked forward, Techno kept his eyes locked on the blond boy, but Wilbur turned to look at him.
“We didn’t do anything, dad. He just… jumped out at us screaming.” The boy on the steps finally turned to Philza, who was nodding in understanding at what Wilbur said. 
“I know.” He stepped in front of Techno, after pushing his hands down, forcing him to lower the sword. “Hey bud. What’s your name?” The stone sword had finally stopped being wildly swung, but was still pointed (though it was clear that the boy was struggling with the weight of it).
“My name’s Tommy.” He finally gave up on holding up the sword. “What’s it to you old man?” Philza scoffed. This kid was ballsy and loud and needed somewhere to channel his energy. He took another step forward and slowly reached forward. Tommy’s grip on his sword tightened again, but even though he wouldn’t show it, his arms were clearly sore and exhausted from the wild swinging, so the sword remained with it’s tip pressed into the step. Hand on either side of the large helmet engulfing Tommy’s head, Philza lifted it up and tucked it under one arm, ruffling the blond locks with the other hand.
“Well, Tommy, my name is Philza and do you want to fight mobs with us and go adventuring?” Philza didn’t know for sure if this young boy was alone or not, but he was hanging out alone in a village ruin defending a tiny shack, so it was a safe assumption. 
“Dad.” The ���a’ sound was dragged out in an exaggerated groan from Techno. “Does he have t-” He was cut off but a ‘thwap’ sound that resulted from Wilbur smacking him upside the head. 
“Shut up.” Wilbur hissed, hoping that for once Techno would listen.
“What? The kid tried to slice me!” Philza whipped his head around and glared at the boys, and they both quickly straightened, pretending to do nothing wrong. He turned back to look at the boy who was sticking his tongue out at Techno.
“Tommy?” Just like with Techno and Wilbur, Tommy straightened his posture and pretended to look at his feet. “Are you coming?” The boy held out his sword for Philza to take, which he did, before turning and racing inside. Sounds of rummaging came from behind the door, before Tommy reammerged, a much-too-large backpack strapped on. 
“Let’s do this!” 
In a matter of days, Tommy was calling out ‘dad’ to get Philza’s attention. 
--- (original post that inspired this part) --- 
Campsites had gotten harder to find with three boys. Each had developed their own ideas of “safe”, and none of them wanted to listen to Philza. The only solution was to allow them to take turns. Tommy had decided that forests were best, while Techno and Wilbur at least agreed that underground was safest. Unfortunately for the eldest pair, it was Tommy’s night to decide. So the four of them had to march through a thickly wooded area in search of a clearing for the night. 
“Here!” It was barely a clearing, but it was enough space to pitch tents for the night. Tommy spun in a circle with his arms out wide after dropping his backpack, while Wilbur and Technoblade looked at each other. 
“Alright, you three set up camp, I’ll check the area.” Philza dropped his bag beside Tommy’s and retrieved his sword, bow and quiver already over his shoulder. He knew that the boys would be safe, and trusted them to keep each other safe, so he had already turned his back and was already on the move.
“Don’t forget to call out if you find anything!” Techno’s voice echoed slightly in the empty area, and Philza waved his empty hand above his head, indicating that he heard and would do so. 
Checking every possible hiding spot was important to do during the day, to make sure that there were no mobs during the day when they would burn that would later add to the number of mobs that night. Places like the hollowed out trunks of trees. 
Philza had ducked into each as he moved and only saw the occasional spider, with one exception.
He had reached what he had decided was the last tree he would check, and bent down to duck his head inside, only to be met with a curled up figure with a faded yellow and grey striped sweatshirt. They had their arms wrapped around their knees and there was what looked like dried blood in their matted hair.
“Hey buddy.” The figure looked up, and Philza saw more dried blood on his face and sweatshirt. “Are you okay?” The boy shook his head.
“My dad…” His voice broke at the end, and his eyes began to water.
“It’s okay, you don’t need to tell me.” Philza held out his hand, which the boy cautiously took. “What’s your name?” The young boy wiped his eyes with the end of his oversized sleeve.
“Tubbo.” He snuggled slightly and looked up at Philza with wide eyes. 
“Well, Tubbo,” Philza still hadn’t let go of Tubbo’s hand, noticing that Tubbo simply adjusted his hand in Philza’s to hold it better, “do you want to come eat with my and my sons? I think my youngest is the same age as you.” The small boy wiped his nose on his sleeve and nodded. “I’m Philza, by the way.”

Honeyed Blood Over Fresh Snow
(btw this takes place back when Tommy moved out of Logstedshire and in with Techno)
(TRIGGER WARNINGS: DEATH, KILLING, MENTION OF SUICIDE)
____________________________________________
"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Came Fundy's voice from behind the tiny hovering president.
"It should be fine, it's just Tommy" Tubbo had been sneaking off to Logstedshire for a while now, and had been planning this visit for weeks. The small bee hybrid had regretted exiling Tommy for a while, and during his few small hidden visits his guilt had grown even more. He couldn't bear to see his best friend- no- his brother suffering like he was. Tubbo didn't know why he had even listened to Dream in the first place, Tommy had a plan, one that Fundy and Quackity had even agreed with, to take down the smiling man- and now because of Tubbo, Tommy was suffering. "I have to talk to him. Alone."
"Yeah, but what if Thomas is mad at you- Tubbo you're not exactly- well your-" Quackity was quickly shut up as Tubbo cut him off with a glare.
"I'm tiny. I know." Tubbo shrugged. "But don't worry, I'm going in bee form and I can just fly away if it seems like he… like he…" Tubbo didn't want to think about what would happen if Tommy was mad at him. Flashbacks of the festival and the sounds of fireworks overtook his mind for a moment before he shook those memories away. "I'll be fine." At Tubbo's words he received worried looks from both Quackity and Fundy. "And if I somehow don't come back…" he looked to Quackity specifically, "Go through with it without me."
Quackity gave a curt nod, and before either of them could do or say anything, Tubbo was transforming into his bee form and buzzing away. The only thoughts running through Tubbo's mind as he flew above the water was his worry for Tommy. His friend had been forced to be alone with only Dream for weeks now, and Tubbo hadn't even properly visited them- who knew what all happened in that small camp Tommy had built. The bee boy felt guilty for what he did, he wanted to make it up to Tommy by finally talking to them after all this time. Who knows, maybe Tommy would forgive him for practically betraying their friendship at the hands of the green man they've always been against. Ever since Wilbur, through the wars, the disks, everything- they had always been together against Dream and now Tubbo had joined their enemy's side and exiled his best friend. He had to fix this.
As Tubbo flew closer to Logstedshire an uneasy feeling began to creep it's way up his fuzzy back. Something was… off. He couldn't hear Tommy- yes his friend had been getting more quieter based off the few times Tubbo had spied on them, but Tommy was never the type of person to let a silence hang, always preferring to fill it with some sort of noise, whether it was their own voice or the sound of music. Then there was what Tubbo was beginning to see- on the shore was a small table, chairs, and other things as if someone had been preparing for a party… and the closer Tubbo flew the more his eyes teared up. He began to see a small crater and a decimated house, the one he thought Tommy had been living in. Why was it blown up? Why would Tommy… why would anyone…
Then he saw it. How could Tubbo miss it? The tall structure making the bee freeze at the sight as he looked up and up and up and up-
Tubbo's breathing sped up. "No…" he buzzed to himself, too overwhelmed to turn back into his more human-esc form. "No no no no no…. Please NO!!!" He flew over to the bottom and began searching. "Surely not- he didn't- he couldn't have- he he he…." There was a compass on the ground. "No…." Tubbo landed on it, and sure enough engraved to the side was 'Your Tubbo'.
The small bee felt his entire world crashing down around him. He couldn't do this- he couldn't- couldn't be here. With all those thoughts and images of Tommy falling plaguing his mind Tubbo began to fly- to fly as fast as he possibly fucking could away from that cursed place. He had to get away from there. He didn't care where he flew, he didn't even pay attention to his surroundings as he flew and flew as fast as his tiny wings could buzz forth. Screaming out a buzz of agony that only he could hear.
Tubbo could painfully remember thousands of times he'd land on Tommy's nose and be teased about being clingy, only for Tommy to then rest a hand over him to keep him there. Memories of getting tangled in Tommy's never ending curling hair, and laughing as his human friend complained. All the times Tubbo would forget about flying and would be caught in the warm familiar hands of his brother. Hundreds of times Tubbo would bury his way into Tommy's pocket and take a nap. Their time in POGtopia whenever Tubbo wasn't with Schlatt and got to stay in the ravine, there wasn't enough supplies and they had to share a bed, and Tubbo would always wake up being gently cuddled…. And Tommy's laughter, it filled his head and-
Tubbo paused his fruitless flying and realized he was now in the tundra, near a small house he didn't recognize. He looked up hearing a far too familiar sound that shattered his heart.
Tommy's laughter… It filled the frozen air and warmed it too much for the small bee, and as he looked over he was overwhelmed with emotions as he saw Tommy- standing there, smiling, ALIVE. Tubbo didn't even hesitate to fly over to Tommy, not caring that Technoblade was there too, not caring that his emotions were too overwhelming to not turn back into his human form, and not caring if Tommy was mad at him. Tommy was alive and that's all that mattered- all Tubbo wanted to do was to never leave Tommy's side, fuck the excile, fuck Dream, all be dammed he was going to stay with his friend and make sure nothing like what he thought happened at that tower would happen again.
"Fucking annoying bees…" Tommy absantmindedly swatted at what must've been an escaped bee as it annoyingly buzzed around his head. Tubbo didn't care as he dodged the hand, he'd just stay flying around Tommy until his emotions were in control, he could turn back, and explain. The bee continued to fly around Tommy's head, and Tommy continued to swat at Tubbo, not realizing it was his friend yet.
"Tommy, stop messing with the bees!" Came Techno's voice, and it distracted Tubbo. In that millisecond of hesitation Tubbo didn't see the hand coming, and suddenly he was smacked out of the air and fell down into the snow.
The next few moments almost seemed to happen in slow motion. Tubbo didn't even have any time to scream as he looked up to see Tommy barely even noticing him, just having this annoyed look on their face. The bee boy looked up more, and paled in horror as he saw the Sketcher tennis shoe raise up. Tubbo opened his mouth to scream, he turned back instantaneously, but it didn't matter as the shoe slammed down onto him. Tubbo felt his bones crush and crack, blood bursting out of him in some places, and he couldn't even scream as he was choking on that blood with a lung being either torn or popped…He couldn't tell. It didn't matter as the shoe pressed into the ground, as if trying to smear him down, and Tommy… Tommy turned away, not even looking down or noticing what they'd done. As if he'd squished just another random bug.
"Alright alright, they're annoying anyways-" Was the last thing Tubbo heard Tommy say as the human walked away…
•••
"WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM!?!" Quackity screamed at Tommy as soon as he saw them, they're invisibility potion having worn off along with Techno's pot.
"What are you talking about!?" Tommy yelled back, he quickly scrambled behind The Blade. They'd just come sneaking into L'manburg for some supplies, he didn't think this whole Butcher Army thing would come out of nowhere and yell at them.
"Tubbo!! Where the fuck is he Tommy!?" Quackity continued to yell.
"I don't know what you're talking about, I haven't seen him since I was exiled!!" Tommy yelled back. Quackity just gave Tommy a confused look.
"Tommy… Tubbo went to visit you a week ago and didn't come back…" Fundy spoke up sadly. Tommy paused at that.
"What do you mean? I- I didn't see him..?" Tommy looked up at Techno.
"Don't look at me kid, I didn't do anything to yer little tyrant" Techno shrugged, but he could already see the panic starting to form on Tommy's face.
"You really don't know what happened?" Quackity dropped his weapon to his side. As much as he wanted to finish off Techno right now, Tommy was starting to worry him. "He went in bee form, so no weird bees either?"
"No, no I didn't…." Suddenly, Tommy froze, parking as he remembered something he did a week ago. "No… no no no, fuck NO!!" It was then that Tommy turned and ran back to the nether portal, ignoring the shouting from Techno and The Butcher Army as they ran after him. The teen's mind was a swirl of fear, he couldn't have not to Tubbo- never to Tubbo. There's no way that he…That he…
No, no. Tommy would never have hurt Tubbo, not even unintentionally. He'd even promised back during POGtopia that no matter what happens, he would never hurt Tubbo, not even by accident. Never would he ever… never, just- he could never…
As soon as Tommy saw Techno's house he ran straight to the bee farm and fell to the ground in front of it. The place where he'd done it now stuck in his mind. He began to dig into the snow, only speeding up more as his fingers got covered in red blood that was in the snow until- Tommy let out a sob.
They didn't even look dirty, the snow seemed to have melted a bit around where their body was and had washed off any blood or mud that could have been on them. Tommy gingerly scooped Tubbo's body up into his hands. They were cold… too cold. Their body was so limp that Tommy felt like he was holding more of a rag doll then… then his best friend…
Tommy screamed.
He sobbed.
He hugged Tubbo's body to his chest.
But Tubbo was dead.

[YourName] was born within the nether and never planned to leave. They were in charge of the fortress that they did rounds on, protecting the baby wither skeletons and teaching them how to use their sword. Some days they lost comrades and parents, sometimes they didn’t, it was the cycle of life, but [YourName] strongly respected them for risking their life for the fortress. [YourName] may only be half wither skeleton, and half-human, but they were respected because they were raised as a wither skeleton and continued to act like one. [YourName] had ashy black fingertips and gripped a sword like a wither skeleton, they also managed to gain the tall height of one too. [YourName] wore an ash grey cape that had white fluff that caught the falling ash in some rooms of the fortress, it showed their rank within the area.
Technoblade had no idea such a person existed until he had gone in weeks before the attack on Manberg for some wither skulls. He was going ham on some wither skeletons, doing perfectly fine until he was tripped and pinned to the ground by an iron sword tip. “What do you need from here, peasant?” [YourName] asked squinting their eyes toward the intruder. Techno flustered out of being caught and choked on his words, “Well, I need wither skulls.” he said bluntly. [YourName] stared at the piglin hybrid and pressed their lips together before letting the man go, “Next time. Ask.” [YourName] said leaning in with distaste on their face. Technoblade looked at them weirdly, “I’ve never seen you around, how the hell am I supposed to know you exist?” Techno asked with the same tone [YourName] had used on him. [YourName] scoffed, “As a nether hybrid yourself, I would’ve thought you would’ve been more... Nicer to me.” [YourName] confessed. Techno laughed out, it echoing against the empty hallways of her nether fortress, “No.” he simply said deadpanning toward the hybrid. “Have some humanity.” [YourName] joked leaning against the hot brick, Techno let out a slight breathy laugh from his nose. [YourName] knew the history between the wither skeletons and the piglins, they just didn’t know if Techno had known about it. “Do you know about the war against the Wither Skeletons and the Piglins?” [YourName] asked curiously, Techno laid down again while [YourName] squatted in their spot and used the wall to balance. He nodded though, “It was-” “The most bloodiest war the Nether saw.” [YourName] spoke with Techno cutting him off slightly. “Yeah, my grandfather fought in it, I just didn’t know if you knew about it. I don’t think you coming in and killing my men and women are helping at all.” [YourName] explains giving him a sort of a parental look. Techno shrugged “I know, but I need them. There’s a war in the overworld that’s going to happen and I know I will probably need help from Withers.” he explained, sounding unusually desperate. [YourName] sighed, “Fine, get as many as you need.” they said giving in to the desperate tone Techno had given them. They felt bad and had a feeling Techno was being vulnerable. [YourName] stood up with Techno and would separate, never to bump into each other again for the rest of the afternoon.

Okay I admit it I'm obsessed, just more Winged!Fundy AU stuffs
-Most of canon is side-stepped, using rough elements as a guideline (L'Manburg was a thing, it had its revolution, the 16th and doomsday, Wilbur died, Fundy and Phil are estranged/disowned, Fundy has his prophetic dreams which jumpstart his godly magic, etc) but Fundy is around the same age as Tommy, Tubbo and Ranboo are physically (the former of the two being immortals and the latter having a naturally long lifespan), and it takes place in a world where the nuke wasn't stolen and Quackity gets to be happy okay. Fundy is still being haunted by his dreams and begins to suffer from derealization, though I have no intention of going into details about it.
-Dream himself is mortal and isn't the big bad, but DreamXD, his twin/doppelganger is a god of chaos and is the main antagonist, and Dream is working for DreamXD. DreamXD has noticed Fundy's powers awakening.
-Phil is one of a handful of Angels of Death, having been created by Death through magic. He is technically Death's son, and if Death ever falls is the next choice to become the god of Death. He is technically a god, but as the son of a god and having wings he is referred to more often as an angel. Wilbur and Tommy are his biological sons, though they have different mothers (who are mortal and lived roughly 100 years apart). So technically all three of them are Angels of Death, and all their wings are made of magic.
-Wilbur manifested his godly magic when he was 3, and had Phil there to guide him through it so that growing his wings wouldn't hurt. His wings were pepper gray and white, but when he was still a small child he had a traumatic accident that irreversibly damaged his wings, and his wings were magically removed since leaving them be would have caused more problems.
-Tommy was barely 6 months old when he manifested his godly magic and grew his wings, taking both Phil and Wil by surprise. His wings are pure gold, a stark contrast to his father and brother. He still has them, but he started hiding them when he got involved in wars since they would become a target for the enemy.
-Angels have a special magic called an Angel's Bond, where they can, only once in their lives, share a bond with a mortal and extend their immortal life to them. There's different kinds of bonds this can fall under, though the most common are familial bonds, often between a mortal who was taken in by gods or angels. It ties that mortal's life to the angel's, and until the angel dies the mortal cannot die and will only age at the same rate as the angel.
-Techno and Tubbo are Phil's adopted children. Techno was found as a young Piglin in the nether, and he was roughly the same age as Wilbur. Phil ended up using his Angel's Bond with Techno. Tommy brought Tubbo home one day, Tubbo an orphan trying to get by in the forest, and Phil welcomed Tubbo into their home. Tommy ended up using his Angel's Bond with Tubbo after finding out that Tubbo's going to grow old and die before Tommy ever even reached adulthood. Phil has concerns about Tommy using his One and Only bond so young, but it can't be reversed so...
-Sally is the daughter of a god, and was created through magic. She has many sisters. Their mother calls themself Mother Nature, even though they are more accurately Life (versus Phil's father being Death) and Fundy is the actual embodiment of Nature, being the one and only descendant of Life and Death.
-Wilbur and Sally knew each other were angels/spirits/the children of gods, and they knew they were the children of opposite gods, meaning that their love was technically a forbidden love as life and death magic was never meant to mix. They fell in love anyways, and though the god of Life disapproved, they just sat back and watched. Sally actually couldn't have kids, being a product of pure magic, and ended up asking Life for help, and in the process made a deal; she and Wilbur got to have a kid and in exchange, they could never awaken the kid's magic (thus, these two immortals' son would be doomed to mortality) and Sally had to return to the sea after the kid turned 5. Oh, and Sally had to take a different form after being pregnant because Life did not want their grandchild to appear human. Yea Life's a sick fuck. Wilbur actually wanted to disagree but Sally wanted to have a kid biologically (they did raise several adopted kids which was very fulfilling but Sally just... wanted to have a baby, idk why, couldn't be me) so she agreed. Wilbur cried the day he came in for breakfast to find his wife had transformed into a fox woman cause he knew the timer had begun.
-They didn't tell anyone, not even Fundy, who they intended to raise as a mortal. They took away all magic from their house and told Fundy that Wil was a musician and Sally was an accountant. It was after Sally disappeared that Wilbur built L'Manburg's walls.
-Wilbur managed to keep Fundy from manifesting his magic all throughout his childhood and teenagehood, and he never found out that Fundy figured out astral projection and shapeshifting. After Wilbur died, however, Fundy began exploring a little more and ended up discovering some of his other powers (prophetic dreams/dreamwalking, being able to mold the world around him to a degree, things like that) and Ghostbur didn't remember enough to keep an eye on him. Phil had no idea, since Wilbur never told him, he never met Sally and Fundy hadn't manifested his magic when Phil was around. This time, where Fundy is completely alone and has all the time to himself, is when he begins manifesting the magic his parents had tried so hard to keep him from manifesting, and it's when the phantom pains from wings that hadn't grown yet began. It is a PAINFUL process to grow wings, even magically, because it comes from under the skin/attaches to muscle and bone, and since he has no older or more experienced Angel with him he has no one to help him or guide him...
-Ranboo is there when Fundy's wings grow, a very traumatizing moment for both of them (blood and Fundy definitely passes out and all that fun stuff), and manages to convince Fundy to not immediately try to chop them off with an axe (Fundy was panicking) but Fundy refused to go to Phil or Tommy because he has Issues(TM). Namely, he didn't want his family to decide he's suddenly worth loving because it turns out he's just like them after all. In fact, he's terrified that if they find out, he can never have a relationship with them because he'll never be sure if they love him or just love that he's like them. He wants to be loved for who he is, not what he is...
-On the other hand, Phil and Techno threaten to kill Dream when Dream shows interest (/p) in Fundy, and Phil tells him to "stay the hell away from my grandson" because even if he's angry about the whole Butcher Army thing, still, he is NOT about to let some cretin near his grandson. They do love him. They're just mad and waiting for a proper apology. (Phil, of course, does not know Fundy is more god than mortal so the idea of him manifesting death magic and growing wings doesn't even cross his mind, and doesn't know he let Fundy go through the wing growing process all by himself.)
-Funboo (/p) shenanigans as they try to hide the existence of Fundy's wings from literally everyone else. Tommy and Tubbo finding out in possibly the worst way possible. Tommy freaking out because Fundy A) went through that painful and traumatic process without another angel there to help, B) is trying to teach himself how to fly and use magic, and C) didn't feel like he could go to his own family about this thing that everyone in their family has gone through.
-Emotional family shit as Tommy realizes just how alone and isolated Fundy felt, not even willing to go to his own family to learn more about his magic? Learn how to fly?
-Enter Tommy&Tubbo&Fundy&Ranboo (/p ofc) shenanigans as they, very specifically, try to hide this from Phil, Techno, Ghostbur and anyone else they think might even possibly let it spill to them. Also Tommy taking over teaching Fundy about his magic and flying, because "no offence Ranboo but this is very different from enderman stuff"
-Fundy trying to come to terms with the fact that his family's perception of him won't change just because it turns out he's not mortal
-Fundy figuring out how to astral project right out of the mortal plane and talk to his father in the afterlife. It's tense ofc their last meeting was not a good one but Fundy needs answers because nothing's adding up....

the full bdam!schlatt design page!
hi friends :) got something really cool to show you today!!! gonna put it under the cut as there is quite a lot to go through here haha...
but! essentially what you’ll find here is design pages for bdam!schlatt i’ve been working on for about a week now! there are a total of 21 designs for various stages of the story, which I explained in detail. feel free to just skim through and look at the drawings, haha. and enjoy!
(all of the designs are put in chronological order of the story, rather than the order of which they are in the actual story. they are also ONLY designs for bdam, and don’t include anything related to bhav)
Tumblr media
first what i drew up here are designs for schlatt in the first stages of the smplive chapters! on the left is his very first appearance, and on the right is how i imagine him to look around his teen years.
in the first design is how i imagine schlatt looking when he first meets wilbur. at this stage of the story he was of course living in the inner districts of the city with not a lot to his name, so you can see ragged and dirty clothes there. he would usually carry his four discs around in his backpack since he didn’t think it’d be smart to leave them unattended in his parents’ apartment.
after getting taken in by phil, there was an immidiate change in how he dressed and acted - mostly getting more clean and fitting clothes, as well as trusting his surroundings enough to leave the discs in the room he shared with wilbur, never really feeling they were in danger. you can see the design on the right is a lot neater, AND he’s got the blue sweater! 
Tumblr media
the second set of designs is mostly right before and right after phil’s banishment - more simply right before and right after schlatt was kicked out of the house the family stayed in and was forced to go work at the live daily
the design on the left is what schlatt looked like when he tried to make money for the family right before the banishment - he was described to have been wearing an old shirt of techno’s, a tie made up of a cut piece of techno’s old cloak and black jeans. it wasn’t a suit, but it was made to look close enough to one to help him sell things in a more convincing manner. up close, however, the outfit looked very clearly cheap.
on the right is schlatt’s design for the live daily! together with the aparment he got and everything else techno managed to put together through his connections with pete, he also got some actual suit shirts and pants he could wear, together with a tie. he would often carry around pens and pencils as well as a notepad (at least before he was barred from writing stories for the paper following the ted nivison piece), and was granted a press pass as any other worker at the paper, but he would hardly use it as it was near useless with his low position and permissions anyway.
Tumblr media
in the third set of designs we have both of his schlatt & co designs, from before and after the fire that lead him to finding out about the nether intolerance and everything else surrounding it.
at this point in the story, the company was set up and schlatt, connor and wilbur all had enough money left to get themselves nice suits they could use for work. not only that, they made business cards! they’d give them out to clients and new people alike to try and get exposure. you can also see a clear change in how he styled his hair - going from overly neat for his more stable job to more messy for a job he had more control over.
on the right is schlatt’s look after the fire - when the captain concluded what he had he started offering to test schlatt more to try and find some sort of work around for the intolerance, or at least to try and figure out how it worked. he would often be seen with bandages or small bandaids from skin samples being taken, injections, blood being drawn, etc. he wouldn’t wear his jacket a lot around this time since it would be uncomofrtable anyway, and he rarely did business up close around this time considering how he looked.
Tumblr media
in this fourth set of designs, we have a design for schlatt during his time in the lunch club, and a design for schlatt during the floods. they are two widely different designs - but i decided to put them side by side for contrast.
in the lunch club design, you can see some minor changes. he’s back to having a full, clean suit, and clearly started presenting himself A LOT more professionally. and as every other member of the lunch club, his badge could always be visible - and hey, i finally designed the badge! it’s a sort of more serious spin of the normal lunch club logo. the other six members had badges from the previous six - but schlatt’s was newly made, so it lacked the wear and tear of the others. another thing about this stage of his life was that he would often be seen around the city on various posters - as all other lunch club members. this was a sort of pseudo-propaganda method to keep the city loyal to the seven leaders and to raise kids admiring them.
on the flood design you can see everything we learn from the narration - schlatt used the jacket of his suit for the most part to bandage up wilbur’s leg, and used whatever was left to make a make-shift sling for his broken arm. there’s not much to say about this other than it being a drawing of what i saw mentally as i wrote those sections!
Tumblr media
in the fifth set of designs we have one minor design and one far more major one - between schlatt after smplive’s recovery from the flood, and schlatt after he was left behind by everyone.
on the left, after everything returned to normal, schlatt got back to work at his, wilbur’s and connor’s company. he got a proper cast and sling for his broken arm, and he once more went back to a cheaper, but more comfortable suit. there’s really not much to say about this design, i just wanted to draw the cast-suit combo since i haven't done that before lol
the design on the right is a very important one! this is a design for how i imagine schlatt to look during his time alone in smplive. he would probably hang onto a sense of normalcy with the suit and everything - but would also try to get more functional with what he wore. he would carry a backpack with supplies he would need at any time and that he would fill with things he found around the city while looking for supplies, and he’d have a lot of straps to hang weapons, potions, etc... for the most part, he just tried to get an outfit that could keep things normal and familiar for him but also keep him alive. he always carried the picture of him and wilbur, stal, and a bag of schlattcoins. and of course, the voice recording device. that’s the only thing of those four he left behind when he left the city for good.
Tumblr media
finally, some horn designs! these are really fun! on the left we have schlatt right after his first journey through the nether, and on the right we have him after he was nursed back to health by niki! 
when walking through the nether, even despite minx’s magic, schlatt’s condition still left him hurt severely. he also, of course, got hurt quite a lot walking through a place that dangerous. through his walk he grew very small horns - but they were not as big as they would be later. his eyes also begun to shift colour from brown into yellow, but the colour did not show very clearly at first. a small split also showed in the pupil of the eye, but once more, it was barely visible at this time.
after recovering, there isn’t really much to point out. schlatt got fresh clothes, most of the wounds were cleaned and fixed up, and apart from the horns, it was quite hard to tell the difference between how he looked in the dsmp and right before the left smplive.
Tumblr media
in the seventh design we have some more severe hybrid features! these got really fun to draw from this point on! on the left we have how schlatt looked during his ban, and on the right is how he looked after, once more, being nursed back to health by niki after coming back. 
on the left design, you can see the hybrid features have gotten more severe. the horns grew out and curled, more resembling that of a ram, and his eyes fully shifted colour to yellow as well as their pupils splitting completely and turning a more rectangular shape. you can see his clothes being a lot more torn and dirty, as well as his jacket being ripped up and used as bandages for most of his body. at this point, schlatt had left his bag in the dsmp and had practically nothing to work with in the nether, especially in the early days when minx was still angry with him and very unwilling to help out in any way. 
on the right we have his design after recovery. he has some bandages, some clean clothes, and once more, there isn’t a lot to say. you can still see some bruises around his face, as well. ah, and of course, at this point he has the chops(tm).
Tumblr media
in the eighth design i put together 3 suit designs, since i didn’t need to get too detailed with these ones. let me quickly run through these!
in the first design here, we have schlatt during the election! he got a cheap suit from wilbur that he wore when he expected him to do a speech in support of pog2020, which we of course know didn’t actually happen. at this point he still had most of the damage the ban in the nether did to him underneath, whether it be bandages or bruises.
in the second design we have schlatt during his presidency! this was definitely at his peak, with a nice, custom suit (you can see the manberg flag sewn into it around the chest), which shows how in control of everything he was at the time. 
for the festival, schlatt chose a more extravagant outfit, as did everyone who showed up. you can see a more casual, “human” suit to try and fit in with his people and try and paint himself as a fair ruler. he also put rings and other decorations on his horns for this event!
Tumblr media
in the ninth design we have schlatt after the festival and during his further presidency. these were fun to do - let me walk you through them!
as shown in the design on the left, following the festival, schlatt lost an eye, burned most of the right side of his body, and lost a part of his horn. no one really know where it went. it’s believed it was lost in all the panic, eventually, and probably perished in the explosion. his right eye turned completely grey and faded, and he couldn’t see with it. following everything, he had bandages on most of his body for quite some time.
as shown in the right design, schlatt’s further presidency was a facade. he still has his clean, custom suit, but it doesn’t seem to fit the same. you can also see his hair got far messier and he never seemed to bother to actually clean it up. 
Tumblr media
and so we reach the final, tenth page of designs! we have schlatt during the dsmp finale, and then we have him during the bdam finale!
in the left design you can see i got HEAVILY inspired by sad-ist’s dawn of the 16th animatic! at this point, schlatt lost his eyepatch but didn’t care enough to replace it or fix it up, and you can see his dishevelled state with how he’s dressed and how his clothes look overall. you can clearly see the burns on the right side of his face, and how little he does to conceal them.
and finally, the finale design! schlatt and wilbur, when they were between life and death, sort of became a mix of their spirits and minds - on one hand was their normal selves, but on the other, was that more innocent side left long behind, symbolised by the blue sweater he USED to wear when he lived with phil, mixed with a nice shirt he’d wear normally. in this void, his state is also more clean and orderly, which is why his horn is back in place and there’s a lack of burns. it’s essentially the most stable representation of him that can manifest - without changing him completely.
and that’s that! hope you guys like these <3 i worked really hard on them, and i’m planing to do more in the future for different characters! i have a lot of time to work on these now that i’m taking a break, so i hope to get more done soon. for now, that’s all! thanks for taking a look at these! <3

Rapid
Summary: This was a vent fic so the beginning is just me putting my issues into DSMP character Wilbur. Ended up being a cool fic in the end though so pog
Cross posted on AO3 @ paperrcliip and Wattpad @ paperrcliip
TW: swearing, small mentions of blood/injury, panic attacks, slight paranoia, character death
Word count: 7507
Wilbur had always hated noise.
The squeaks in doors were too loud and the crumpling of a chip bag made in uneasy and panicked. All the sound was unnecessary. It could be panic enduring for some as well.
It's okay, stay calm, Wilbur thought to himself. He had asked Phil if he could have a snack , he was allowed to. Nothing he was doing was bad or deceitful. No one will get mad.
What if they do though, the little nagging voice in the back of Wilburs head thought. The fox hybrid didn't want to think of that though. It would be easier to ignore the voice. The little constant negativity and anxiety in the back of his head. If he ignored it it would leave him alone, even if just for a little while.
Techno once said that trying to ignore or forget about something made it more constant to think about. It pops up in your head more because you're actively trying not to think about it. Distractions worked best. Food was a good distraction it's why he had asked Philza if he could grab a snack (he never knew if they were going to have dinner soon and he didn't want to make anyone mad by eating and then not being hungry for dinner). That reminded him, Phil told him that humans are relaxed after eating. Being full makes your body sleepy.
Wilbur memorized a short list of foods that calm anxiety. There was salmon but Wilbur hated the texture of it. There was also chamomile because it was a relaxing herb, green tea, yogurt and dark chocolate. Wilbur liked chocolate, it had a bit of caffeine as well which would keep him awake. The chocolate was in the pantry and Wilbur knew since he didn't eat the rest of the dark chocolate it was still there. No one else liked it enough to eat it.
He just needed to stay calm. Everything he was doing was allowed, people had allowed him to do this. He had no need to be quiet he could be as loud as he wanted if he so dearly wished. Tommy could come in and ask him what he was doing and Wilbur would be 100% honest. Techno could come in and question him and Wilbur wouldn't care. Phil could ask what all the noise was about, and Wilbur wouldn't care. Well maybe he would just a little bit. He didn't care that he was allowed too, he hated making too much noise.
It was still noisy though. Too noisy for Wilbur. Silence was sensitive, one wrong move and it shatters like glass. Wilbur loved and hated the silence. It was deafening ironically. It left him alone to his thoughts. Yet he loved the peace it brought. It could be calming or overwhelming, two opposite sides of a spectrum which was simply amazing. Silence could be two things at once. Breaking the silence when it naturally formed seemed like a crime. It could shatter peace with a simple creak or a whisper. Silence was scary like that.
The cupboard squeaked when the brunet opened it and he looked around to check if anyone was disturbed by the noise. It was only open a tad bit, just enough to see to contents inside of it but not enough to grab anything. He cursed internally at that and slowly closed it making sure it did not make another sound. A mental sig of relief, no one had heard or no one had cared. Wilbur walked over to the fridge avoiding the floor boards that creaked.
The fox hybrid memorized which ones creamed so he could easily avoid them. When he had to take walks at 4am because his head hurt and he needed to clear his head he needed a safe path to the door. He always oiled the hinges of the door when they were starting to get squeaky. The possibility of a robber breaking in and Wilbur and his family trying to get out but alerting the robber they were at the door because of a squeak was terrifying. Of corse the downside was if someone broke in through the door they wouldn't know because it was silent.
He opened the silver handle of the door slowly as the fridge illuminated itself. Nothing in it seemed appealing but he didn't want the trip to be for nothing. Banana's where on the counter, he remembered. Slowly closing the fridge door he went to step away, wincing when the floorboard under him creaked with the slight loss of weight. Panic set it. The brunet awkwardly kept his weight on the foot not on the squeaky floor board. He had to do this quietly or it would shatter the calmness of the house.
He stayed still. Not moving a muscle as he tried to figure out what to do. Wilbur was blanking, his brain was numb with panic and his logic wasn't working. Ideas came in sparse and quickly, only grazing his brain and giving him a mere moment to consider it before it floated away and Wilbur had no memory of it.
What should he do? step back on it? Maybe take the foot off quickly. Which option would minimize the amount of noise? Wilbur didn't know what to do, he knew his thought were spiralling and his breathing was speeding up. Hyperventilating would add to the sound, it would make everything worse.
Hold your breath, an idea came to mind. So he did. He slowly peeled his socked foot from the floorboard and trying not to panic more when it made a slight noise. His foot was off, the noise was gone he could breath again. Something wet fell down his cheek and he brought his hand up to while it away. When had he started crying? why was he even crying. This was a pathetic reason, he could never cry over serious things yet causing noise has this effect on him.
Emotions were fucked that way. Whenever things got so bad he couldn't be bothered to feel anything about the situation until months later. Then minor things occur and it ruins his day and mental health for the next week.
Wilbur wasn't hungry anymore. His shaking hands started to calm down as the brunet took a few deep breaths. He needed to calm down, he was getting worked up over nothing again. How he wishes he could say it's the first time this has happened, yet he couldn't. The panic over making noise happened too often yet no one had noticed, he made sure no one noticed. People would call him stupid for having an anxiety attack over something as little as this. Something so small shouldn't have this much of an effect on people, yet it did.
Wilbur guessed it would affect people differently by how they were raised. Before he had been adopted by Phil, the fox hybrid had stumbled through a nether portal and gotten lost. Noise was bad in the nether, if you made noise and got spotted you were basically dead meat. Piglins and hoglins as well as ghasts came for you, and if you were unlucky enough a wither skeleton may be near by as well. In the nether everything was against you and when you heard noises near you you should be scared. You always needed to be quiet and sneaky and have an escape plan on a moments notice.
The brunet was lucky, his ears picked up on noise very well. That also meant constant anxiety. He had no idea how far he could hear, he couldn't tell if the piglin was far away or just around the corner. Eventually Wilbur had found a hybrid. His name was Technoblade and they protected each other. Then soon after Phil had found them and took them home. Soon after Tommy was added to the family as well. Silence was a good thing, it meant no danger.
He was spiralling again. What helps reduce anxiety? Wilbur vaguely remembered people telling others to drink water. His throat was parched. Maybe water could help. It would perhaps steady his shaking hands and calm his mind. Even if it just slowed the thought down a bit Wilbur would be grateful. He could focus on one thing at a time instead of fleeting thoughts that left to make room for the new. He could take a breath and just think about one thing instead of trying to remember and focus on ten.
Wilbur opened the drawer for the cups slowly and sighed in relief when no noise was made. This drawer was safe. Things were looking up already, it had been a good idea to get water. The glass cup shook in his hand but the brunet tried not to focus on that, water was all he needed. Brain's and body's needed hydration to function properly, Wilbur remembered that from a health guide Phil got him a couple years ago.
At the time Wilbur didn't think it to be useful but Phil seemed happy to have found it for Wilbur so he read it. He read and memorized it to make Phil happy even though it was oh so boring.
Wilbur brought the cup to the tap and turned it on so water was almost barely coming out. It would be too loud otherwise and Wilbur didn't want to freak himself out more than he already had. The glass took a while for it to be half way full but that was all Wilbur needed, just a bit of water to get him back on track. He turned off the tap and brought the cup to his lips. The water was refreshing. It was cold and took his mind off of everything else even if just for a moment. That moment of peace was short lived however.
A crash came from upstairs and normally Wilbur would jump and check it out and everything would be sunshine and rainbows. This was different, he was already anxious and in a bad state of mind. The cup fell and shattered causing Wilbur to jump back in shock. He heard talking from where the crash was. Everything was too loud, he had made too much noise. Noise was danger. Noise was bad.
He had disturbed the silence and now he has to pay the price. Something bad was gonna happen, danger was going to come into the kitchen and kill him. he could imagine the footsteps of a wither skeleton walking towards him, the bones clanking together and the holes were the eyes should have been staring at him as the sword would be plunged though his body. The wither effect would take place and it would be a slow and painful death.
Wilbur had only been withered once and for a very short period of time. The skeleton had barely grazed him and his arm slowly turned pitch black for a couple minutes before returning to normal. It left him sick for the rest of the day but he was fine. He wouldn't be fine if the entire sword was through him.
Or maybe Phil, Techno or Tommy would come and scream at him. First for making too much noise then for freaking out over something so small. Perhaps he would be disowned and have to live outside. He should start packing bags now. Get ready for the rejection, get ready for being kicked out.
Why did it feel so warm in here? Why was his vision blurry, he couldn't focus on anything. It was like he was zoned out, trapped inside his own mind. His lungs felt like there were boulders on them. He couldn't get enough air in. Air was good, air was everywhere so why couldn't his lungs find it. They had one job and they couldn't do it properly. His wrist felt itchy. Make it stop. The itch wouldn't go away, why wouldn't it go away. Maybe he just needed to sit down for a minute. Wilbur sat on the ground, broken glass in front of him yet he hadn't noticed. Glass wasn't his concern. The stupid ice was, it wouldn't stop. The brunet just had to scratch it a little more, a little harder. the was something red in his finger nails. Or was there? His blurry vision, panicked brain and shaking hands didn't make it easy to tell.
Was it blood on his wrist? What caused that? Was it him- not it couldn't be him. Maybe it was the glass or what if there was an intruder. Did the intruder hurt him? The logical part of his brain said no, that there was no intruder but how could he be sure. With how much noise he made he wouldn't be able to tell anyways. It was all his fault. Everything was his fault because he couldn't deal with a little noise.
Someone was talking to him. He should focus on that but the brunet couldn't. It was too much, everything was too much. Everything was moving too fast. It was too rapid. Something was holding his arms. Was this the end? Was this the scene at the beginning of a horror movie where a character dies before they time skip to where the main character lives? How ironic, Wilbur had always though horror movies were stupid.
The characters never knew what to do and always went towards the scary noises. Or they panicked and made too much noise and got caught by whatever was trying to kill them. How foolish, Wilbur had always thought he would survive in a horror movie. Maybe this situation was trying to prove him wrong.
He needed to stop getting side tracked. Someone was talking to him he wasn't imagining it. It was the person holding his wrists. Maybe he should listen, if Wilburs going to be killed he at least wants to know why. He just had to focus. His thought were just so loud. So demanding of attention it was hard to pull himself away from that. Wilbur wanted to so desperately but his thoughts had started overflowing and there was no stopping them anymore.
Wilbur wanted air. He wanted air so badly. Not wanted that was wrong. He needed air. The brunet felt like he could die right now. His body and brain needed the oxygen so why did his lungs refuse it. Fuck the itch was back. Whoever was holding his wrists wouldn't let him scratch it. Honestly the young adult couldn't even if he wanted too his hands were shaking so badly.
The voice was a little clearer now. He tried to focus on that and nothing else, Wilbur tried to drown out the thought. The persons voice sounded as if they were underwater. Or maybe Wilbur was underwater and the other was trying to save him from drowning. His ears were plugged with imaginary water and his eyes were blurred from actual water probably. Or maybe his vision was just going like Techno's. He should consider glasses other than reading glasses. No he needed to stop getting lost in his thoughts. The fox hybrid needed to find this persons voice, maybe they can help pull him out from under the water.
It felt like he was closer to the surface. The persons voice was more distinguishing and he could tell it was someoke he knew. Wilbur recognized it but he couldn't put a name to it yet. It was right on the top of his tongue. Like a scratch that was just barely out of reach.
"Deep breaths Wil. In and out." It was Phil. That made Wilbur was to sink to the bottom of the ocean. Phil is probably mad, he's probably ready to yell at him once Wilbur can comprehend what he's saying. Someone's probably packing his bags right now. No he can't think like that or he'll start drowning again. Wilbur forced myself not too, to avoid the thoughts and force himself towards the surface. Finally after ages, he broke through the surface. His lungs heaved and burned with the lack of oxygen they had been getting but finally some entered. Not at a steady pace, it wasn't graceful like a Disney Princess. It was ugly and awful but he forced the air into his lungs.
"That's it Wil that's it." Phil was here. He wasn't alone, Wilbur wasn't alone. Someone was with him and even if this person kicked him out later at the moment it didn't matter. He wasn't alone and in this exact moment he was temporarily safe. He just needed to stay above the surface and he could breath. Wilbur wouldn't let himself be pushed under again.
His heart pounded, why was it beating so hard? This was worse than when they did the fitness gram pacer test that one time if that was even what it was called. Wilbur didn't care enough to remember. The beating was so loud it rang though Wilbur's ears like bells. He wouldn't be able to distinguish the pounding of his heart and the footsteps of a predator. Was this even his heart, or maybe this was someone waking towards him. Did death's footsteps sound like pounding? No death wouldn't have footsteps it had to have been his heart.
"Phil," Wilbur started slowly, "it's so loud. It's too loud I can't I can't Phil please." His lungs were on fire, he shouldn't have spoken. There wasn't enough oxygen yet. He had already messed something up again. He was going to drown again.
Phil cursed, what could he do to help Wilbur? He was still holding onto the brunets shaking hands making sure he didn't scratch his wrist again. He had started breaking skin by the time Phil had gotten there. He had to get Will out of the kitchen and his panicked state soon. Glass was everywhere and if Wilbur passed out it could be bad.
"Will you're okay. You're okay it's quiet now. Shhh I need you to breath with me." Phil said slowly. He made sure his tone was soft and quiet. The brunet started breathing again. His chest heaved with every exhale and the inhale was short and rigid but he was getting air back in again. Phil wanted to hug Wilbur and shield him from the world but he knew it would make it worse. The taller had just barely recognized him.
Phil wouldn't be helping Wilbur if he just planned to kick him out right? If he was going to send Wilbur off then he would do it now, the logical part of the fox hybrid's brain told him. The panicked part though was saying otherwise. It was a battle of which could be louder, to which neither was winning.
"Phil somethings on my arms. I can't move them." Wilburs voice sounded far away to the both of them. Phil frowned, Wilbur didn't recognize it was just Phil holding them. It was then Phil knew it was good not to hug the other. The brunet wouldn't be able to tell it was Phil.
"It's just me Wil. You were scratching yourself." Phil explained quickly. He needed to answer Wilbur and provide clarity for the situation. He also couldn't go into detail either. There was the perfect in-between to not cause thee other more panic or distress. Wilbur nodded faintly letting Phil know he had heard him. That was good, his voice was getting though to him. Wilbur was hanging on and he was pulling himself out of the panic.
Keep speaking, Wilbur wanted to scream. His vocal cords couldn't though, they had given up on him when he really needed them. Phil's voice was real. Something he could focus on other than the tornado of thought spinning and screaming for attention in his head. The thought reminded him of a toddler, or a Tommy. They didn't like to be silenced and they didn't like to listen.
Phil's voice kept him grounded and above the imaginary water threatening to drown him. He needed it right now more than ever. It was the one thing constant in his life right now, it was safe and was keeping him afloat. Wilbur needed to stop comparing this situation to water but he couldn't. It made sense to him. Water was logical emotions were not. Emotions came out of nowhere and fucked you over. Water gives life or takes it, emotions were strange and didn't work like that. They came out of nowhere or decided "hey I'm going to be a bitch today!" And all you had to do was accept it and try to get on with you're day.
"Keep," Wilbur finally chocked out, "speaking. Please." His head was too loud but Phil's voice was comforting and silenced his head. So Phil kept speaking, Wilbur couldn't make the words out but he heard it. The words didn't matter, what did matter was the noise. The comforting voice of Phil that could calm all your worries. It could drown out all of the thoughts that constantly demanded Wilbur's immediate attention. Slowly they got quieter, still there still screaming but quiet enough Wilbur could start making out words. He hear mf Techno, closely followed by farm and a word that started with P. Then he heard Tommy followed by beach and picnic.
Were these memories Phil was recounting to Wilbur? The one and only time they had brought Tommy on a picnic was too the beach. It ended up with a hat lost in the ocean, Techno swearing to never wear a sun hat again, and Tommy trying to take a 'pet' seagull into the car before they left. The memory almost brought a smile to Wilburs face. The thoughts fell into a mere whisper in the back of his head. The fox hybrid could deal with that, they were easy to ignore when they weren't screaming at him from all directions.
Soon after Wilbur looked up and could see Phil's face. It was real and Phil was really there it wasn't a trick of his imagination. His vision was slightly blurry but already mostly better and he could recognize his father figure.
"I'm tired. I'm so so tired." Wilbur mumbled. Mentally physically or emotionally no one knew. All three would be the best guess and the brunet knew he meant all three. Phil cut his story short at that and looked at him. To put it nicely, Wilbur looked like a mess. His eyes were tired and droopy yet still held so much anxiety in them as if he was ready for something to round the corner and kill him and Phil. His wrists shook and were splattered in blood and his normally fluffy meat hair was scattered and droopy.
"I know. You gotta stay awake for me Wil." Phil smiled sadly. How he wished he could just let Wilbur sleep his troubles away. But first came fixing his wounds then hydration and maybe nutrition if Phil was lucky. He could live without that though and let Wilbur sleep then eat when he woke up.
Phil didn't know what to do. The couch he could let Wilbur rest on was downstairs luckily. Though the med kit was in the bathroom upstairs and the older didn't want to move the brunet around that much. He also didn't want to leave him alone (the chances of him passing out were high or the possibility he could be triggered into another attack were too great for Phil to consider leaving him alone). Phil grabbed his phone out and quickly texted Techno to bring him a wet clothes and the med kit to the kitchen. He sighed in relief when he was left on read. Soon enough he heard light footsteps and turned around to see the pinkette walking his way.
"Phil someone's coming"
"It's just Techno. You're safe it's okay." Phil quickly assured Wilbur. The piglin hybrid passed Phil the items and walked away quickly and quietly. The blonde mouthed a thank you before he left and Techno just nodded. The last thing the pinkette knew he should do was make too much noise. So he went upstairs to his room, not before telling Tommy about the situation beforehand though.
Phil grabbed the clothe and gently whipped the blood off of the brunets wrists. He looked to see if there was any reaction from the latter but nothing, he just stared blankly but Phil knew a lot was going on inside the young adults head. The bleeding had almost completely stopped which was good. Phil set the clothe aside and grabbed the med kit now. Inside there was antibiotics to put on the wounds before he wrapped them in bandages. He put the med kit to the side and looked back at Wilbur. The boy looked so very tired.
"Wil I'm gonna help you stand okay?" He gave the other a warning and once he got a nod in return, he helped him stand up. Almost all of Wilbur weight was on Phil but he didn't mind. He brought him over to the couch and let him sit down before going back to the kitchen and grabbing a plastic cup of water. The winged man made sure to avoid the glass and made a mental note to sweep it up once Wilbur was asleep.
"Drink this then you can sleep." He gave the cup to Wilbur keeping his hand on it should the brunet drop it. Once it was empty Phil placed it on the coffee table beside the couch and turned back around. Wilbur laid with tired eyes but made no move to go to sleep. He was very tired but sleep could be bad. All the possibilities of the voices coming back or having a nightmare were too large. It seemed childish but it was true.
"Wil go to sleep it's okay. I'm right here." The older assured. He received a nod in response and it only took a few moments before the brunet was asleep. Phil wondered if he had fallen asleep quickly because of mental exhaustion or because of how much sleep he had been getting in the last few weeks. He couldn't worry about that right now though, it wasn't important at the moment. It was all okay, Wilbur was going to be okay. Once he woke up, ate and felt better Phil could ask what had happened. Of Wilbur didn't want to tell him he would respect that but he hoped he would do he could help the young adult.
The brunets dreams were strange. At first it was nothing, just pure blissful rest. Nothing but darkness as his mind rested itself to recover from the particularly eventful day. Then his brain decided to go back into a memory, one Wilbur would rather not relive. It was strange how people could remember things in their dreams with such vivid detail. It was ethereal if it was a good memory. Terrifying if it was not. It was like you were back in that memory except you knew what was going to happen next and you could do nothing to stop it, and somehow that made everything worse.
The memory started off with younger Wilbur in the nether. there was a crimson forest surrounding him yet the nether was strangely peaceful that day. He couldn't hear any hoglins or Piglins so Wilbur knew this wasn't when he met Technoblade. What memory could it be though? Or perhaps he was wrong and this was a random dream he would forget as soon as he woke up. His dream self walked around the forest until he found netherack. The fox hybrid knew exactly what memory this was now.
A fortress was near by and fortresses had food. He had to go in. Villagers in the overworked spoke of how they were dangerous but Wilbur was tough, he could handle it. The chests sometimes had bread or other foods and Wilbur didn't think he could find anymore pork chop from previously dead hoglins. The chances were too low but the fortress now gave him another option. The young boy went in though an open window on the ground floor and looked for any mobs before continuing down the long dark hallways. The nether was eerily peaceful today and the brunet didn't like it.
He didn't dwell on it as the lower his hunger got the less energy he would have. Right as he made another left turn a chest stared right back at him. Not trying to be sneaky or quiet he ran towards the chest and swung it open. Today was his lucky day, there was 10 pieces of bread which is so much more than he could have hoped for. There was also a gold nugget which he stored in his pocket. It could distract piglins for a while if he was in trouble. He smiled and grinned for the first time since he had been lost in this hell of a place. Everything was looking up and this was only one chest out of who knows how many.
Wilbur closed the chest gently and continued farther into the fortress. Normally he wouldn't push his luck but he had a feeling today would be good. When there was no more loot on the ground floor (besides disgusting nether wart) he walked up the stairs. Only a few meters down the hallway he would find another chest with nothing but a golden hoe (to which a few months later he would give as a present to Techno). The brunet sighed and closed the chest.
Footsteps right behind him. Wilbur swung the golden hoe behind him to block an oncoming attack from a skeleton. Not a normal skeleton, this one was black as night, tall as a giant and held a sword instead of a bow. The sword grazed his arms bur Wilbur wasn't worried about that. There was enough adrenaline for him to push the mob away with the hoe and jump out of a nearby window onto the top of a tree. The skeleton stared at him for a moment before walking away. It was horrifying, there was no soul it was just the undead. There was something different about wither skeletons though, there was something ill to them that made them stand out from other mobs.
Why was his arms turning black? Wilbur felt dizzy, at first he thought it was just an adrenalin crash but no. The spot the skeleton cut was turning black and he felt sick. He was going to die wasn't he? It was so painful. He wanted to cut off his arm if it made the feeling stop. It was the longest 2 minutes of Wilburs life. The black soot faded only leaving a dark scar that would have permanent withered skin over it. The brunet laid in the leaves of the red tree for the rest of what he thought was a day. Nether time was strange because it didn't have night or day. In the end it was worth it. The bread and nugget was worth the trauma. It didn't matter for the next few years every time he closed his eyes he could see the holes of a wither skeleton staring at him. How it lost interest once he was away. I one strike it could have killed him or left him to suffer the effects of the withering.
Wilbur opened is eyes. That memory hadn't been seen in Wilbur's dreams in a long time. He wasn't in the nether anymore. It didn't smell like ash and smoke. Wherever he was smelt like cinnamon and was cooler than the nether. It was okay he wasn't in danger. That changed though as he heard the fire place crackled as a small piece of wood broke off and fell to the bottom. The brunet sat up looking around for anything hostile and when nothing was found he relaxed only slightly.
The young adult stood up going to the kitchen. The floor was no longer covered in glass from the cup earlier. Was it early or was it yesterday now, Wilbur didn't know how long he had slept. Why had he come here again? Water perhaps but he didn't know where the plastic cups were and a repeat of last time would be horrendous.
"You good there Wilbur?" He jumped and turned around to look at the speaker. Both of his brothers were in the entrance. Tommy had spoken quietly which was out of character for the young boy so Wilbur assumed they at least vaguely knew what had happened.
"Mhm." Techno didn't look convinced.
"You're hands are shaking. Tommy go get Phil. Wilbur we're going back to the couch." The pinkette spoke up. Tommy nodded before running up the stairs. Wilbur wondered how he could do that so effortlessly, maybe he was just getting older though. Tommy still had very young knees after all. The piglin hybrid tapped him on the shoulder once the brunet started zoning out. The younger (by two minutes mind you) rolled his eyes before following Techno to the couch.
Maybe sitting down is a good idea after all Wilbur thought. The walk to the couch seemed long yet so painfully fast he had a headache by the time him and Techno sat down. Wilbur put his head in his hands and closed is eyes. That seemed to help when he got headaches. Techno, the ever observant person in the family quickly filled up the plastic cup that was on the coffee table and handed it to the fox hybrid. Wilbur nodded in thanks and downed the entire cup in a matter of seconds. His present headache started fading into a dull ache in the back of his head.
Wilbur's ears perked up as he heard footsteps on the stairs. One appeared to be running and skipping steps while the other was slower and took them one at a time. Tommy appeared in the living room first out of breath as he collapsed in the middle of the carpeted floor. The blonde child loved to be dramatic. Next came Phil as he strolled in calmly. The older stared at Wilbur and he didn't need to say anything for the brunet to know what he was going to say. He nodded and at Phil and his father figure nodded back sitting down in the chair near the couch.
"I never liked noise much," Wilbur started off, "Unnecessary not like speaking you know? Anxiety decided to be a mother fucker which didn't help. I just got worked up kinda and then something fell I don't know it just set me off I couldn't focus." The rest of his family listened and stayed patient when Wilbur paused. Explaining what you had been feeling was peculiar. It was trying to find the right words to match how you felt in a single moment that had passed already.
Finicky. Wilbur thought that word best described it. Like pulling out Jenga blocks from a tower, trying to find which one to pull out or speak about first. If you pulled the wrong one everything collapsed.
"And then that little voice of negativity that's always there. Like what's it fucking called, intrusive thoughts! They got so loud I couldn't hear anything else and I'm shit at exposing emotions I know." Wilbur rushed to finished off awkwardly. Everyone around him stayed silent. That was the scariest part, their reactions. They could call him stupid and the chances of being kicked out were low but not zero.
Were they low? Fuck that voice of negativity. That small thought made his anxiety sky rocket. The brunet shifted uncomfortably on the couch looking anywhere but anyone's eyes. Eyes were windows to the soul. That quote was so common yet Wilbur had no idea who had originally said it or where it had come from. It was true though, you could see emotion just through someone's eyes and Wilbur didn't like that. Soneone could see how uncertain he was or he could see what they were thinking which he didn't want either. Wether they were disappointed, angry or another emotion he couldn't place he didn't want to know until it happened.
"I'm sorry." Wilbur looked up at the gremlin child. He had no idea who was going to speak first or what they were going to say but if Wilbur had any guess it wouldn't have been that. Tommy saw the questioning look Wilbur shot him and elaborated quickly.
"I knocked something over. It's what made the noise and made everything bad." Tommy sounded so sincere and small which was out of character for him. Wilbur didn't want to make Tommy feel guilty, everyone knocked things over. Simple mistake. It had just been unfortunate timing. Like a chain reaction, it starts small and gets bigger.
"No no no Tommy no it wasn't your fault," Wilbur was quick to assure, "Everyone makes mistakes you didn't know anything would come of it. If it's anyone's fault it's mine." The rest were fast to deny all of this.
"LISTEN!' Phil yelled, "It's no ones fault. We can't control how we feel and there's no one to blame." Everyone agreed while Wilbur stayed silent. It was still his stupid emotions. He had wrecked the entire day for everyone. He wanted so badly to believe Phil but it was so difficult. If he could listen to Phil for once in his life then maybe he wouldn't feel the awful guilt that it was his fault.
"Wilbur." The male in question looked up at Phil finally.
"It is not your fault." The brunet nodded but everyone could see he didn't believe it. Wilbur felt arms wrapped around him and he turned his head to see his little brother. He wrapped his arms back around Tommy and melted into the hug. It was so comforting and loving Wilbur wanted to cry of joy. Hugs were under appreciated.
"Wil tell me it's not your fault." Damn you Technoblade, Wilbur thought. So now he should lie out loud. To his family non the less, could he really do it? The brunet didn't want to lie to their faces. They helped him and didn't throw him to the streets, they gave him all the bare necessities to live as well as care and love. This family didn't deserve to be lied too.
"It's not my fault." He may have been lying to himself but the proud looks on his families faces was worth it. The small voice in the back of his head may have disagreed though Wilbur didn't care. His family knew he thought he was lying but they didn't care. It was enough he had said it. This single moment would be on Wilbur treasured for infinity.
(I could have ended it there but wheres the fun in that)
It is your fault, the little voice was still here all these years later. Louder than ever and fully taking control. They were the new Wilbur that everyone hated and that everyone feared. No matter what Wilbur did they were always there in the back of his head.
For once if was right though. The voice wasn't lying and Wilbur didn't care. It was all his fault! He was proud of it being his fault. A little part of him hated himself for that. The voice of reason, Wilbur assumed. Reason was beyond his comprehension now. In war reason was futile and only ended up hurting everyone more. The fox hybrid learned that the hard way.
Someone had to make the tough call, someone had to take all the blame and Wilbur chose himself for that. He couldn't bestow the fate of self hatred with everyone else hating you as well onto anyone else. His son, his little brother, his friend, no one else deserved to bear that pain besides him.
Sometimes he wished it was all in the good of his own heart. He knew that wasn't the case though. It was mostly his own mind thinking this was right and had to be done no matter how many people it hurt. No matter how much it hurt him. Once his long coat trailed across the uneven rocky flooring for what would be over the 20th time he knew for sure this wasn't just to help others. He needed to be free of this burden that he had created and put on everyone's shoulders. All of the conflict was Wilbur's fault he knew that, this next bit would be his fault. It would be his last fault though, never again would he make a mistake after today. Never again would be bear the guilt of his mistakes or the worry of making another. Because he could be free after this.
He hadn't expected Phil to find him but that was only slightly inconveniencing. It didn't matter. Even when the man who had raided him tried to reason with him nothing mattered anymore. Couldn't Phil see he was beyond reason? Why couldn't he just give up on Wilbur like he had on himself so long ago. Like many others have already. Why did Phil have so much hope he could come back to the good person he used to be, if he was ever a good person.
Hope was a mistake. Look where it had gotten everyone. People were happy before Wilbur decided to fuck things up and give false hope. Hope only let everyone down and the brunet needed everyone on the dream smp to understand that, no matter how much it took. It didn't matter how many people hated him after this took place. So many hated and even feared him as soon as he got exiled to that ravine. This was just solidifying that they should hav feared him long before.
Fear was useful. It got people to stay away and take a step back. Wilbur liked using fear because it pushed people away so when he ultimately disappointed or hurt them, it didn't hurt as much. He still cared, he just chose not to show it.
The button called to him and he was stuck in a trance every time he entered that room. This time though, was the time it was pressed. The wood felt cold and damp beneath his hand. It was humid in this room though Wilbur didn't acknowledge it, or maybe he did but his brain refused to recognize and care.
It was never meant to be, were the words Eret used when they betrayed him. She had been cruel with that but Wilbur decided to mutter his words back as he pressed down on the button. It made a satisfying click and he turned to look at Phil. The face of horror was painted on. Hope diminished in a second from the mans face. The stone behind him blew up and L'Manberg was no more.
It was all Wilbur fault and he was proud. His unfinished symphony was forever unfinished and he loved that. A small part of the old Wilbur stuck with him and felt saddened by the loss of his greatest creation. His ill brain though was satisfied with his work.
And so he begged his father figure to kill him. To end his suffering. Wilbur didn't know who was talking. The old one or the slightly psychotic one. He assumed it was a mixture of both. One wanting to die because his business with the dream smp was done. The other because he couldn't live with what he had done. All the wrong outweighed the right in Wilbur's opinion. How did the music lover turn into this was a question everyone would ask for years. Wilbur didn't quite know himself either.
Philza finally did it though. He plunged the sword through his sons stomach and held him as he died. The outside was so loud, people screaming and shouting it was too much for Wilbur.
"Keep," Wilbur finally chocked out, "speaking. Please." His fathers voice could drown out everything else just like it had years ago. Phil kept speaking, he spoke to his son about happy memories until he took his final breath and was at peace.
Death was merciful for Wilbur. It was better than war after war. Betrayals and nothing but hurt had come from this country. But it was gone now so Wilbur could rest. The crushing weight of the world was lifted off his shoulders for once in his life. He could finally sleep good, so he did. He closed his eyes and listened to Phil's comforting voice for the last time until he could no longer hear it.
Maybe if Phil helped Wilbur before, years ago from when we had first gotten adopted then maybe all of this could have been prevented. He would have been able to deal with noise better, L'Manberg wouldn't exist and no one would be dead. Phil wouldn't have had to kill his son.
Wilbur always hated noise.

so since ive been wanting to post about my dsmp au i thought i should make a post summarizing what you need to know to understand. my posts about it will be under: dream smp gods au. (its not actually them as gods i just add gods to the story.)
the rest will be under the cut.
 the concept and base idea of the au
this au was started out when clara as a concept was getting really popular and i ended up being really invested in the concept of her being the embodiment of the universe and tommy's mom and i thought of adding other gods and stuff like that and that's mostly it. after this i'll be talking about the characters i made and things i've changed about others.
clara (she/her)
-the embodiment of the universe and tommy's mom.
-due to her being unable to stay in a physical form for long enough to raise tommy she gave tommy to philza.
-chirp was the only thing she left tommy with, philza told tommy it was from a woman in space named clara and he assumed she was an astronaut. he lost it eventually and clara guided bad to it so he could return it to tommy.
-while without a form she can only communicate with certain people. (those being, green, blue and crimson whom are the only gods i've come up with so far but i'll make more later.)
-cares deeply for tommy and tries to look out for him in all the ways she can without a form.
-does not have much direct influence.
-only place known to mankind that isn't part of her domain is the nether.
green (they/them)
-one of the first humans to exist, upon their death they were granted godhood and the title 'guardian of the end.'
-one of dream and drista's parents.
-a messenger of sorts for the gods.
-powers are mostly nature themed, they can bring dead plants back to life, grow plants out of nowhere, control vines and other plants, ect.
-but they also have end powers, like teleporting, manipulating the void, enderdragon wings, etc.
-wears a smiley mask like dream's at all times to not disturb endermen. also to avoid eye contact.
-one of the less morally gray gods, tending to believe in good instead of looking for chaos.
blue (they/them)
-the other first human, upon dying they were also granted the title 'guardian of the end.'
-dream and drista's other parent.
-tends to be assigned to control mortals whom have gotten out of control and may threaten even the gods' safety if they get out of hand.
-has water themed powers, causing rainstorms, just plain controlling water, draining the water from living things, freezing things in ice.
-has end themed powers like green.
-wears a frowny face mask to avoid eye contact with endermen.
-interested in sally's potential as she seems incredibly capable and thinks she probably deserves to become a god.
-only looks out for the people they care about. (those being green, dream, drista and sally and clara to an extent.)
-heavily dislikes crimson.
crimson (she/they, also known as the blood god.)
-god of the nether, brought it to life with their own powers.
-originally a mortal whom through something gained the powers of a god, enough to rival blue and green who are arguably the most powerful of the gods.
-dreamons are those who died in the nether and ended up impressing them before that. she summons their souls and offers the deal if they accept it they become a dreamon. dreamons purpose is to take over their host to cause blood.
-dream's dreamon is a very ancient one, probably one of the first to exist and saw the power they would have if they could successfully possess him, ESPECIALLY if they could pretend to be him but due to dream's powers they couldn't fully. them and dream are forced to swap every two hours and have decided to ally, using their combined power to reach a single goal.
-crimson despite being a bloodthirsty god has a code they won't break under ANY circumstances.
-a mentor to techno, she saw great potential in him and offered, he accepted since he wanted to be the best fighter he could. when he told tommy to die they immediately stopped training him because they wouldn't help someone who thought that was fine to say. after techno started housing tommy they came back.
-as an add on during tommy's exile they took an interest and talked to him while he was the nether becoming a sort of parental figure to him.
 sally the salmon (she's not a god to be clear)
-a shapeshifter between a salmon and human.
-queen of an underwater kingdom, which has VERY similar ideals to l'manburg in its beginning.
-she originally met wilbur when she sneaked out of the kingdom when she was a princess as a salmon to see the outside world. she was drawn towards wilbur's music and ended up transforming into a full human to talk to him.
-the reason she had to leave wilbur and fundy is because the previous ruler of her kingdom had died and others who could've inherited the kingdom were somehow unable to run the kingdom so she had to, of course she and wilbur mostly lost feelings from their separation.
tommy (things that are relevant to him in the au)
-due to being the universe's son he has some powers mostly unconscious though, those being, his anger or sadness sucking the life out of things, the weather changing to suit his emotions, and the ability to make starlike fires in his hands.
-he almost always wins in a way and even if he loses there's something that makes it better.
-unaware of clara being his mother.
extra that i couldn't put anywhere else.
-sbi family dynamic is canon in this.
-wilbur and techno are twins who can shapeshift between piglin and human. wilbur prefers his human form and techno prefers his piglin one.
-if it isn't clear fundy shapeshifts between fox and human. and since foxes age faster than humans he does to an extent. this is my attempt at fixing the timeline.
-sally and blue have talked a few times.
-techno and wilbur tried to guess where tommy came from and the ideas because increasingly ridiculous, wilbur eventually made a joke about tommy coming from the fridge and the joked about the fridge being his as well. he also made a joke about his girlfriend being a fish which came full circle when he started dating sally the shapeshifter.
