i hate editing i hate proof reading so i DIDNT
3.5k words LMAO oops
here is something for the drdi hgau!! rescue mission <3
tws for injuries and mentions of needles and blood. nothing graphic
Going into the Capitol was probably a death trap, but Sneeg didn’t even entertain the idea of leaving Ranboo to be retrieved by strangers. The state they had been in during the last day of the 75th games had been bad enough, he could only imagine how much worse it had gotten in the weeks since they had been captured.
If he wasn’t there, he was afraid Ranboo would just think they were being kidnapped, which, well, they kind of were, but it was by the right people this time. Ranboo thinking they were being kidnapped would probably lead to a struggle, which wouldn’t be helpful for anyone.
Getting into the building had been nearly impossible without tripping any alarms, but they had made it to the floor that held the cells with Niki, Techno, and Ranboo. Now they would be on a strict time limit. They would cut the power to the floor, and have about two minutes before the emergency power kicked in. Any delays were likely a death sentence. It was a great way to get an adrenaline rush, really.
They had scoped out the cells earlier, knew where to find everyone, and now it was a matter of finally putting the plan into action. Luckily, 13 had plenty of night vision glasses, or this would be nearly impossible.
The power went out, and there was no more thinking about what to do, only doing it.
Sneeg stuck to the wall as he made his way down the hall to Ranboo’s cell, figuring it was better to pretend there were guards everywhere, just in case one did make an appearance. He was pretty sure there had been guards, but he hadn’t been part of the group dealing with all that.
He reached the door and forced it open with some specialized tool he’d been given. The engineers at 13 really had something for everything. Definitely not complaining about that.
Ranboo was curled up on a cot just inside. There wasn’t much room for it to be anywhere else. Sneeg ignored the rush of relief at just seeing them there, alive and… well, pretty much just alive. They were absolutely not okay, bruised and skinnier than before, though he didn’t know how they had anything left to lose. He knew he couldn’t even see the extent of it, even with the night vision glasses. They also seemed to be asleep, which meant he was about to give them an unfortunate wake-up scare.
He knelt beside their bed, trying to move quickly without being careless. Wincing slightly at how much he knew he was about to scare them, he pressed his hand over their mouth to keep them from making any noise. He didn’t even have to shake them awake, that was enough to startle them awake, eyes wide and searching the dark, trying to figure out what was happening.
They tried to shove his hand away but he caught their wrist, easily stopping them.
“It’s me,” he whispered. “It’s me, Ranboo, you’re okay. It’s Sneeg.”
They froze, confusion mixing with the fear in their expression.
“I need you to trust me right now.”
He could see them trying to make sense of what he was saying, of his presence there, of everything.
Then they nodded.
Thank god.
“I need you to stay quiet. I’m going to pick you up, and I’m going to run. You need to hold on. That’s all you need to do, hold on and stay quiet. Can you do that?”
They nodded again.
He took his hand from their mouth and didn’t hesitate to hoist them up into his arms. Ranboo did their part, wrapping their arms and legs around him and holding on as best they could. It was a little awkward, they were a tall kid, but it was easier with them holding on. They were light, too. Lighter than they should be. He ignored it. They would get help back at 13. His job was to get them there.
Exiting the cell, he nearly ran into Techno, who was being kept upright by another one of the guys who had come along, his name was… not coming to mind.
“Watch where you’re going,” Sneeg whispered, knowing his relief at seeing another one of their own alive and breathing was clear in his voice.
“What, didn’t expect me to be standing?” Techno asked, voice rough.
“Can you really call that standing?” Sneeg replied. “Come on.”
As much as he’d like to see where Niki was, they had been told to only worry about themselves and the person they were trying to get out, and trust that everyone knew what they were doing. Sneeg had been lucky to run into Techno, but now it was time to move.
They had barely made it into the stairwell when the generator kicked in, lights flooding the floor and a delayed alarm started to sound, only now registering the forced open doors. Ranboo flinched at the sound, clinging to Sneeg even tighter.
“It’s okay,” he said quietly, though he really didn’t know if it was.
He really hoped he wasn’t about to get both of them killed.
No time to think about that. He needed to focus on getting to the roof and getting out of there. He also needed to pretend that things were going to plan, because he could already feel Ranboo’s breathing and heart rate picking up. He couldn’t blame them. The whole thing was probably—no, definitely—terrifying.
Despite being used to physical exertion, running up several flights of stairs while carrying a teenager was exhausting. He just had to keep pushing forward, though. He would be out soon enough, and then he could get Ranboo home, and they would get the care they needed, and maybe it would feel like everything might eventually be okay.
The relief of getting to the roof and seeing their hovercraft waiting was cut short when the gunfire started. Shit. Luck had been on their side for too long, and it had run out. He only had to make it from the stairs to the hovercraft. That was it. He was so close, so close to getting them both out of there.
The gunfire was coming from behind them, which was good because Sneeg had a bulletproof vest, and all Ranboo had to shield them was him. If the bullets were coming from the other side, they would have nothing.
A bullet found its target in one of the guys who had been next to Sneeg, and Ranboo made a choked sound, probably having seen it happen far better than Sneeg was able to.
He was about to tell Ranboo to close their eyes and keep their head down when a bullet caught him in the leg, sending a wave of white-hot pain through him. He stumbled, losing his footing and his hold on Ranboo, and they both hit the ground hard.
Ranboo was at his side in a second, pulling on his arm frantically.
“Come on, Sneeg, please.” It was the first time they’d spoken, and their voice was raspy and weak. “Get up, please.”
“Can you run?” he asked hurriedly, trying to ignore the blood he could feel seeping out of the wound. The guards would be closing in.
Ranboo shook their head, and he wasn’t sure if it was an actual no, or if they just wouldn’t leave him.
“You need to go,” he stressed. “You need to leave.”
“Not without—”
Ranboo was cut off by the guy who had been helping Techno picking them up. They shrieked Sneeg’s name, trying to free themself from his hold, but they were too weak to put up any real fight.
At least he knew Ranboo was going to make it out. He was dead weight at this point, though. He’d known there was a chance he would die here. At least he was going to die knowing Ranboo would be okay.
“No being a martyr for you.” A familiar voice broke through his somewhat dramatic thoughts, and then Phil was pulling him to his feet.
Phil was meant to stay back in the hovercraft, he had been part of the group keeping an eye on what was happening, but he had apparently abandoned his post for Sneeg’s sake.
“You’ve run on worse than that,” he added, half-supporting, half-dragging Sneeg along with him.
He was right. Sneeg gritted his teeth, forcing himself to move through the pain, unable to come up with a witty retort with the pain clouding his mind.
It was a miracle that the two of them made it. They must have been the last ones, too, because the craft was moving nearly before they were on it.
The doors closed and Phil lowered Sneeg to the ground, back against the wall, both of them breathing heavily.
Before he could even start to ask about Ranboo, they were back at his side, arms thrown around him and face pressed into his shoulder. It couldn’t be very comfortable, what with the bulletproof vest, but he doubted they would be letting go any time soon. He put an arm around them, giving them a squeeze.
“I’m okay,” he said quietly. “We’re okay.”
“Well, unless they shoot us out of the sky,” Jack said, sounding all too happy for having said something so grim.
Of course, the reason he was happy was clear enough, seeing as Niki was laying with her head on his lap, looking much worse for wear, but awake and alive.
“Thanks, I needed to hear that,” Sneeg replied dryly.
“Let me look at that leg,” Phil interrupted, stopping Jack from coming up with a defense.
“But it’s gonna hurt,” Sneeg complained.
“It’ll hurt more if you bleed out.”
“Let him look at it,” Ranboo said, muffled by his shoulder and… oh. He hadn’t realized they were crying. “I don’t want you to die.”
Usually, he would point out that he had been joking, that obviously he wasn’t going to just sit there and bleed out. But he doubted Ranboo was in a good enough state to pick up on that, and it was better to just comfort them than backtrack and explain that he didn’t mean it in the first place.
“I won’t die,” he told them, gentler than usual. “And of course I’ll let him look at it.”
They nodded but didn’t reply, apparently satisfied with his assurance. Or too tired to keep protesting.
He made a point not to look at what Phil was doing, because it would probably be a little nauseating if he did. Sneeg didn’t like watching himself lose blood. The pain was enough without the visual.
“You’re going to need stitches,” Phil informed him.
“Yeah, duh.” He’d thought that was a given. “Can it wait until I can get something for the pain?”
“You can get something for the pain right now,” Phil reminded him. “We’re fully stocked.”
They were, too. They had a medic and everything, prepared for the worst case scenario when it came to the conditions everyone would be in when they were rescued.
“I’ll get the medic,” Phil continued, standing. “Don’t die before I’m back.”
“I’d never.”
With Phil off to find someone to give Sneeg stitches, he turned his attention to Ranboo, who hadn’t moved since they first got to him.
“They’re gonna need to give me stitches, but I’m going to be okay,” he told them gently. “You’re probably going to have to let go for that, though.”
They held on tighter in response, which wasn’t exactly promising.
“It’ll be okay, you can—” Well… they probably shouldn’t be in the room. That didn’t seem like a good idea. “You’ll be with—”
He had been going to say Techno, because Ranboo and Techno were fairly close, but he suddenly realized that Techno wasn’t in the main holding area with them. He must be okay, seeing as Phil hadn’t been deeply distraught. Probably being treated for his own injuries.
“You can stay with Phil and Niki and Jack.”
“We can have a party,” Jack interjected, obviously trying to keep the mood light.
Ranboo shook their head, more frantic this time.
“It won’t take long, I promise. They’re not gonna waste drugs on knocking me out, just gonna numb my leg and do some stitches, then I’ll be back.”
He supposed he didn’t actually know that, but he was going to make some assumptions for the sake of getting Ranboo to calm down. Not that it was working. If anything, they were getting more agitated, their breath was starting to quicken again and they were trembling worse than before.
“I’ll ask someone to keep giving you updates, how about that?”
He was really lost on what would help at this point. Ranboo might be a little emotional, but they were usually logical enough. Even when they were terrified, most of the time they could force themself to do what needed to be done, but no amount of logic or convincing seemed to be helping now. Not that he blamed them. He didn’t know what they’d just gone through, but he was pretty sure that if he was in their shoes, he would also be clinging on to whatever comfort he could find.
“They’re ready for you,” Phil said, rejoining them.
“You a receptionist now?” Sneeg asked.
Phil rolled his eyes. “Do you want stitches or not?”
“No one really wants stitches, do they?” he replied, a little distracted trying to figure out how he was going to get Ranboo to let go. “Ran, you gotta let go.”
“No!” Ranboo cried, grabbing onto the fabric of his jacket like that might be enough to keep him there.
“I need to get my leg dealt with,” he said, a little firmer this time.
“I’ll stay with you.”
“You’ll stay out here,” he replied. “I’ll be back as fast as I can—”
“No, you won’t!” they cut him off, voice desperate. “You’ll die! You’ll die! They told me you died! They showed me you died, you’re going to die, I saw your body, I saw it—” their words dissolved into sobs, their whole body shaking.
He didn’t bother asking what they meant by that. It wouldn’t be hard for the Capitol to convince them that he was dead. They had plenty of ways to alter people’s perception of reality, and considering how sick and starving Ranboo must have been, it would be easy to play with their idea of what was real.
He’d like to just sit there and comfort them, try to convince them that it was all okay now, but he was starting to feel woozy from the blood he was losing and he didn’t think they would be feeling better any time soon.
“I won’t die,” he said softly, though it was useless and he knew it. “I’ll actually be less likely to die.”
It didn’t seem like they were hearing him anymore, too lost in whatever they were certain was going to happen.
Phil knelt beside Sneeg. “We really need to get you stitched up,” he said apologetically.
“Trust me, I know.”
He gently tried to loosen Ranboo’s hold on him, knowing he could easily shove them off but not wanting to be too forceful.
“No!” they shrieked. “No! I’m not going!”
“Ranboo—”
“No!”
He should really be relieved they had enough energy in them to be doing this, but he doubted that they actually did. They were probably running on adrenaline and nothing else.
“You’re going to hurt yourself if—”
“You’re gonna die!”
The guy who had helped Techno, and then carried Ranboo to the hovercraft, joined the three of them, giving Sneeg a nod before helping pull Ranboo off of him.
As was expected, they didn’t react well, crying out at the sudden presence of another person. They fought against him, unsuccessfully, trying to grab onto Sneeg again before they were too far.
“It’s okay, bud,” Sneeg tried to reassure, but he doubted Ranboo could hear him very well over their own sobbing. “I’ll be back soon, okay?”
He hated this. Hated seeing them like this. Hated that they were so scared and there was nothing he could do. Usually, he had at least some ability to make them feel better, but now he was useless. He couldn’t help but feel like it was his own fault for not making sure 13 got them out of the Arena with everyone else. None of this would be happening if he’d just done right by them the first time around.
Ranboo responded by biting the arm of the guy who was holding them. He swore loudly, and Sneeg really didn’t blame him, it looked painful, but it clearly scared Ranboo, who started struggling even more, yanking and scratching at the guy’s arms. To his credit, he didn’t let go. Sneeg wasn’t entirely sure what Ranboo would do if they weren’t being restrained at this point, but he was pretty sure it wouldn’t be good.
One of the medical staff emerged from the other part of the hovercraft, a syringe in hand. It was pretty easy to guess what was in it, especially when she made a beeline for Ranboo. They were aware enough to see her, and they made one last attempt to escape, managing to kick Sneeg in the side as they did. It wasn’t particularly painful, especially compared to his leg, but it was enough to make him look down, and by the time he looked up again, whatever was in the syringe had been administered.
The sedative acted quickly, thank god, because Sneeg didn’t think he could sit and watch Ranboo struggle any longer, but he also couldn’t just leave them there. He just wished they hadn’t looked so scared as they lost consciousness.
Phil wordlessly helped Sneeg up, the medic joining them to support him on the other side, and they brought him over to the other half of the craft, which was set up like a makeshift hospital.
Sneeg shoved aside the guilt that built with the distance between him and Ranboo. There was no other choice, no other outcome that would have worked, but he still felt awful about it. For now, he needed to just focus on getting stitches, though. He could be there for Ranboo again when he wasn’t in danger of slowly and painfully bleeding out.
***
The full day passed before Ranboo woke up again, and at a certain point the sedative had definitely worn off, meaning most of this was just what their body needed. It was good, Sneeg knew it was good, but he also wanted to see them awake again. He supposed he hoped it would be a little better this time.
They had been back in 13 for a good part of the day, now. His leg was stitched up, there were no expected complications, he just had to not exert himself too much for a bit and then he would be good as new. It had only been within the hour, though, that he was allowed to join Ranboo.
He was lucky. Tommy and Tubbo had argued, then begged to be let in to stay the night, but had ultimately been sent to their bunks for the night and told they could visit in the morning. It probably wouldn’t go well if Ranboo woke up alone, though, so it was a relief to all of them that someone could be there.
They looked a little better. Cleaner, at least, which meant someone must have washed them up. They were in 13’s hospital wear, too, and hooked up to an IV, probably for nutrition and dehydration. He hadn’t gotten much of an update on their health in general yet, and probably wouldn’t until the next morning, but comforted himself with the fact that he probably would’ve been told if something was horribly wrong.
Ranboo shifted slightly and he sat up, watching for other signs that they were waking up. It seemed that they might be, their breathing was slightly faster, too.
“Hey,” he said, voice quiet. If they weren’t waking up, he didn’t want to be the one to wake them, but if they were, he wanted them to know they were safe before they could freak out. “You’re not in the Capitol anymore. You’re safe, now.”
Ranboo opened their eyes, glancing around the room without a hint of recognition.
“You’re with me,” he added, patting their arm, then leaving his hand to rest there.
“Sneeg?” they asked, voice quiet.
“Yeah, it’s me.” He smiled reassuringly. “We’re in District 13. There’s… there’s a lot to explain. All you need to know right now is you’re safe, got it? You’re safe, I’m alive, and we’re gonna be okay.”
Ranboo put their hand over his, holding it weakly. “Got it,” they mumbled, closing their eyes again.
“Get some more rest,” he said, like they could do anything else.
“You’ll stay?” Ranboo asked, voice almost too quiet to hear.
“Always,” he promised. “Now sleep.”
“Rule one,” they started, and he really wasn’t sure how they hadn’t passed out again yet. “Always listen to Sneeg.
“And when do you ever follow that rule?”
Ranboo didn’t reply, having lost the battle against sleep.
“Never,” Sneeg replied for them. “You never do.”
And yet he still put up with them, for some reason.
He sighed and leaned forward, resting his head on his arm on the edge of the bed. If he was going to keep his promise to Ranboo, he had to get comfortable somehow.

Hii! Hunger Games Anon here. After the double bombs that Ranboo got caught up in- I think you said he got another brain injury during it? What injuries/effects from the second brain injury did they have?
hi again!!
yes, so the first head injury (from the warehouse collapse) isnt as severe as the TBI they got from the car accident in drdi. they still have quite a few ongoing symptoms and of course post traumatic epilepsy, but they dont have to relearn speech, nor is that when they get their partial facial paralysis. those are both things they do experience after the bombs, though, as well as balance and coordination struggles, muscle weakness, and some nasty brain fog for the weeks following the injury.
they are able to recover from some of the effects of course, but there are other things that are lifelong. like theoretically im sure the capitol doctors are advanced enough to fix the facial paralysis but A. ranboo has so much trauma that i doubt they would consent to a surgery, and B. things are such a mess it would probably be hard to arrange. as for things like relearning to talk, its a lot slower going because a lot of it happens after leaving everything behind, and tommy, tubbo, sneeg, and their other friends are certainly not trained speech therapists or anything, but they get by. they do communicate largely with sign language just in general, though. its more comfortable in a lot of way.

bro poor tommy tubbo and sneeg basically only just getting ranboo back from the capitol only to have to assume for DAYS they’re dead. like holy shit the relief they would’ve felt when they find out that yet again against odds he’s alive . they’re all going through it huh
they sure fucking are anon! they sure are. they have all unlocked the achievement "will be codependent forever now"
havent talked about it much, but sneeg didnt have any reason to care about tommy and tubbo besides the fact that ranboo loves them. so it was ranboo who brought them together and they bonded when the three had the common goal of getting ranboo back from the capitol. thats not the kinda friendship that fades easily, so they end up relatively close too. though sneeg pretends to be annoyed with them a lot lol.
but anyway. yeah. seeing ranboo alive. injured and in the hospital and all, but alive... to call it a relief is too weak a word. its genuinely like ranboo came back from the dead. and ranboo has been so alone in the hospital (not sure what else to call it... idk if it qualifies. medical treatment place idk) and so scared and now they have people who they Know have their best interest at heart.... they can finally relax a little. they can finally trust that someone will actually be there to take care of them. bc god knows they dont trust random medical people. not after everything the capitol has done.
but yeah. yeah lots of trauma.... takes a long time to start healing, and things are never fully Fine, but they find a life and a community and all... and it works out

Hi here for another HG AU ask- when ranboo had their seizure before the 75th Games. Was it at a point they were by themself/not with anyone he was close to. Or did he have the “luck” to be with friends/family at the time
THANK you for the hgau ask anon i always love talking about the au :]
they were with sneeg! pretty much from the moment they were reaped they do not leave each other's sides. (though they were pretty much always together before that too). it was right after the opening ceremony with the chariots and all, right after getting up to their floor. if having a seizure wasnt bad enough, it simply has to be when theyre all dressed up, which adds to how disoriented and uncomfortable they are when its over.
but yeah they werent alone. sneeg was there before, during, and after it. they woke up with him at their side... then passed out with him at their side.... and woke up AGAIN with him at their side. its an awful situation but... he's always gonna be there for them, as long as they'll have him
#btw to the person who asked me about what they did in the 75th evals... i see you and im trying to come up with a good answer lol#not ignoring you just wanna make that clear as i answer other hgau asks#drdi hgau#anon#cabbage answers

In the 75th Hunger Games , before the whole breaking out of it. Was there any pretty bad or near death moments or injuries that happened to any of the DRDI lot?
oh yeah for sure. might put dream in there to die since so many of you wish violence up drdi!dream but i also might ignore his existence LMAO
anyway that aside. the like... crew that was sticking together at the start was techno, sneeg, tommy, tubbo, and ranboo. later on they were able to meet up with niki and jack. so the original 5 went through the part of the arena with the poison fog, and sneeg and ranboo got the worst of that bc sneeg had to carry ranboo through part of it. ranboo feels awful about that for a very long time. they feel like all the did during the 75th is hold people back and put them in danger, but no one will listen when ranboo says to leave them behind, and they cant quite bring themself to just leave the group... even if it feels like it would be better for everyone.
the bloodbath was obviously some life-or-death moments. tubbo saved tommys life, then tommy saved his right back from other tributes. niki speared a guy for ranboo before they got separated.
obviously the existence of the outer shield thing has to be established, and i clearly hate ranboo so they get shocked <3 which is part of why theyre fucked up enough to need sneeg to carry them in the fog area.
though on the other hand, i think sneeg nearly gets killed by one of those evil monkeys (hate htose things) and ranboo kills it and saves his life
there is definitely more but i need to come up with more of a plot for those games... i mean its not like theyre in the arena for long at the end of the day... theoretically maybe i should kill more people but i love our main little group smh

Hello! I don’t use tumblr often so sorry if this is a dumb question. 😭. I’ve seen your drdi Hunger Games au a bit and I wanted to ask if that’s a fic you’ve written before or just au ideas? Either way it’s cool as heck I just wanted see if I was missing something or not
hiya! its not a dumb question at all!! the drdi hunger games au is mostly comprised of just AU ideas, though i do have a few little bits of writing posted on tumblr (not AO3). its kind of a tumblr exclusive lol. i happen to have always really loved the hunger games and got really into it back when i was first writing drdi, so of course my natural next step was to squash 'em together and make an au of my own au. its something i am always happy to talk about and will likely write more pieces for when inspiration hits, but i dont think itll ever have a full fic written for it :]
here's a post with some of the key stuff from when i first started talking about it
and the tag that should have most of the hgau posts in it
and my two pieces of writing for it!
thank you for the ask anon!!! i hope youre doing well :]

still thinking about the au…. what was the 74th games victory tour like for the trio? was the joy of being able to see each other finally enough, or was it A Lot to go to each district especially for ones they had a hand in killing the tributes from
OH i talked about this a little in my last answer but i can certainly say more!
so their reuniting is DEFINITELY an Event. cameras in their faces, broadcasted everywhere, everyone scrutinizing their reactions... luckily their joy upon seeing each other and their love for each other is very real, but its still not fun to not get to reunite privately.
ranboo does less talking than the other two during the tour, though they aren't entirely silent. they have their parts to say, but they have a hard time memorizing things and dont want to just read off of cards. the capitol really pushed an image of them being "helpless" and needing tommy and tubbo to save them though, so their struggles due to trauma/their TBI play right into that narrative (which. to be clear. is not a good thing. it just means that ranboo struggling doesnt like... mess up the act they're all having to do).
when they get to the district of the boy ranboo killed though... i dont think ranboo can handle it. they start crying and they cant stop and have to be taken off the stage and leave tommy and tubbo to give the speech. it creates a bit of a stir, ill say that.
ranboo is generally liked by a lot of the districts, especially those that are more mistreated/more rebellious. ive said it before, but they were as kind as they could be throughout the games. they had several run ins with other tributes before finally ending up with tommy and tubbo, and obviously none of those tributes ended up dead. they helped where they could, which made the capitol see them as stupid, and the outer districts see them as kind. so that to say, they certainly dont get a Bad reception in those districts.
by the end of it, they're all exhausted. none of them feel good about any of it. they're happy to be together, even for a short while, but its all too much. most of their time is spent dealing with guilt or tears or nightmares and wishing they could be together somewhere else
and of course, tubbo is also sitting there hoping the three of them perform well enough that they wont get killed by snow, and... well that doesnt end well, either.

hunger games au tommy and tubbo continuously having to assume ranboo is dead or they’ll never get him back over and over again in SO MANY situations is breaking my heart oh my god
YEAH ITS SURE A THEME IN THEIR LIVES!! no but for real like... they have a hard time being apart once theyre reunited. like i think ranboo ends up with the two going to the capitol like in mockingjay (yknow, behind the front lines where its supposed to be less dangerous) because if they werent there none of them would be able to function. like should that be the situation?? no. would it be safer if ranboo stayed back? probably. but nowhere feels safe. literally the safest it feels like any of them can be is if theyre together. but then of course that all ends with the boys thinking ranboo's been killed in the final bombing at the capitol gates so... just some more trauma added to the pot. truly the best thing for them all is to move far away from everything with their little found family and be somewhere that they dont have to be too far from each other ever again.

can i offer a particularly fucked up thought about the au i just had
one of the hourly ‘horrors’ of the arena was blood rain right. and after gutting that tribute in the 74th games and being coated in their blood, ranboo is pretty fucked up by the whole “being covered in blood” …..
would be a shame if he happened to be in the section where the blood rain hit right?
DAMN YOU GUYS ARE WRITING THIS FOR ME WHADDAHELL (/pos)
but YES I LOVE THAT!! he would have a total breakdown too, oh man that would be HORRIBLE!! hmm maybe he does leave the rest of the group for a while... thinks they'll be better off without him... gets to experience the horrors of the blood rain... maybe runs into niki and jack there and brings them back to the main group... hmmmmmmm nothing like a repeat of ranboo disappearing and returning covered in blood after being presumed dead... maybe thats too evil....

Ohhhh God Sneeg promising Ranboo it’d all be okay and then them being taken by the capitol is devastating. How long was it before they managed to get them (and Niki and Techno) back? And what kinda state were they all in by then?
YEAHHHHHHH hehe im Evil.
the three are there for about three weeks... shorter than peeta is in the books because tommy, tubbo, and sneeg are all like. not fully functional without knowing that ranboo is okay. and wilbur is causing a Lot of problems over techno being gone, and jack refuses to help with anything until niki is back so... like five of the rebellions fairly important people are NOT useful, and on top of that even like... phil is distracted and concerned so. there are a lot of accusations of selfishness and stuff but like... the boys and sneeg sure dont fuckin care.
techno and niki definitely manage better than ranboo does. not to say they dont end up traumatized and shit, but both of them are more... stubborn. i suppose. and they knew more of what was going on than ranboo. ranboo was tortured a good bit for information that they didnt have. i mean, they didnt even really know about the rebellion. niki and techno were both already involved. they knew the risk going into the arena.
when they come back, ranboo isnt like... violent toward tommy and tubbo, but they are like... really lost about what is and isnt real. their physical state is Not good and they're just... scared. of pretty much everything. they trust sneeg more than anyone else because they've already spent months of their life relying on him, and the capitol cant take that away in three weeks. it hurts the boys to have ranboo so on edge and uncertain around them at first, but theyre relieved that ranboo can trust Someone.
sneeg was also part of the group that went in and rescued niki, techno, and ranboo. it was more dangerous because it was earlier on, but it was successful. its a good thing sneeg was there, because it would have been a TASK getting ranboo to cooperate otherwise.
