on ao3 here
chapters 1/?, 10k words, rated T, relationships: platonic SBI + tommy & tubbo, major tags: superhero AU, hero tommyinnit, villain SBI, child abuse, mind manipulation, family SBI, eventual fluff
summary:
Tommy's called Blindspot for a reason. He’s not invisible, as he’s reminded Dream time and time again - people can definitely see him. They just don’t notice. He blends into plain sight, totally diverting all attention like water off of a duck.
Usually, anyway. Orpheus, however, stiffens a little as Tommy draws nearer. He starts glancing around, as if struck by sudden paranoia. Tommy draws up in front of him, staff clenched in one hand, and Orpheus starts turning as if to check behind him.
“What’s that,” Orpheus mutters. “Who’s there-“
Tommy pulls his staff back and slams it into Orpheus’s stomach, hard.
Orpheus stumbles. He wheezes, choking, and then looks up at Tommy and fixes him with a burning glare.
“Who the fuck are you,” Orpheus says, eyes wild and oddly delighted. “Where were you hiding?”
__
Suspected of betraying the Hero Guild, Apprentice hero Tommy (A.K.A. Blindspot) is put under Security Protocol Catbag: a locked-on noise cancelling mask equipped with truth gas. His mentor, Dream, calls it a necessary teaching tool.
Meanwhile, SBI wants to know why their least favorite loudmouth little Hero has suddenly stopped talking.

Fic Recs: Dream SMP
this fandom with its long and convoluted storyline is so amazing to me. i’ve loved following its journey, so now have some of my favourite fics!
Like A More Competent Orpheus by dauthamalettys
"So," Niki begins, staring down as she fiddles with her mug, "I've been thinking about–" "It didn't work," Jack blurts out, startling her somewhat, "Sorry. But it didn't, did it?" "No," Niki says, the corners of her mouth pulling down, "It didn't. Not even a little bit," – Rocketduo’s plan to kill Tommy with the nuclear test actually works, and when it solves nothing whatsoever (and Tubbo goes feral without his best friend), Jack Manifold goes on an epic quest through the underworld to bring him back to life and stop the imminent nuclear catastrophe. (I promise you, this is more a comedy than anything, but also there’s a fair amount of suicide talk. It’s not super graphic, but it's definitely there. Fair warning.)
this fic has managed to keep its comedic lighthearted tone whilst dealing with some heavy topics, and it is honestly hilarious. i love the expansion on limbo, the rocket duo moments and also the interactions with c!tommy & c!jack. it proves that nothing stops the jack manifold grind
Revenant by Bee_4
Jack Manifold will keep the fire burning in his chest, or he will die. This proves to be a problem when Tommy has been the thing keeping him burning for so long, but there is a solution to that, isn't there? Why not just... go back to hell, and pull Tommy out himself? What, like it could be that hard? (And hell, as always, reaches terrible hands back out for Jack.)
this fic has a very similar plot line to the previous one, however it is less comedic and much more descriptive and serious. i love all the ideas about what c!jack and c!tommy are like after being revived, and the imagery is so cool!!
Thank you, I’ll say goodbye now. Though it’s the end of the world, don’t blame yourself. by nb_stories
“T-0, greet your new friend,” Wilbur ordered. Tubbo continued to watch as the robot’s eyes lit up, the blue illuminating, showing that he had received the order. He bowed his head down slightly, before lifting it back up and smiling softly. The actions, the smile. It was extremely realistic. He didn’t understand how Wilbur had managed to make something like this. Especially in such a short amount of time. “Hello,” the robot spoke, his voice lively. It was slightly rough, not at all artificial, “I’m T-0, it’s a pleasure.” -- Tubbo just had to keep reminding himself of the fact. This was a robot, robots can't feel emotions. Robots can’t feel emotions, right? Or, the Dream SMP but Tommy is a robot.
i love the progression of emotions in this fic, as they become steadily more apparent within c!tommy as time moves on. this fic is also has lots of c!wilbur bashing, if that’s your thing. regardless it is brilliant and also tubbo pov my beloved
as though he could harness the sun by ThatWeirdGuyInTheBushes
religious tommy my beloved (a bunch of connected stories about church prime and related religions of the dream smp)
church prime lore is so intriguing to me, and this series expands upon it perfectly. there are currently two works in this series and they are amazing. this might be unnecessary, but warning for lots of religious imagery and symbolism
taller by shrugofgod
“We were friends, right?” Tommy asks, and it’s casual. Probably deceptively so. Ranboo frowns. “I mean, we're still friends,” he points out. “But differently,” Tommy insists. “Yeah,” Ranboo says, because it’s not like it’s not true. “A little differently.” -- Or, Ranboo and Tommy talk.
c!allium duo lovers come get your bread. this is a short and sweet canon-compliant fic where c!ranboo & c!tommy just sit and talk about everything they have otherwise brushed over. it’s great!
This Makes Exile 1000% Funnier by Crazy4abby
"Today, my friends take my place in exile to drive my friend Dream crazy. This one was insane so if you did like this one, please like and subscribe. I know people find me annoying at first so if you did enjoy this, please consider subscribing."
the crack fic of all crack fics. loving all of the character appearances, and c!dream’s slow descent into insanity
but i’ll figure out a way to get us out of here by itssideria
“He’s out, Wil,” he whispers, voice cracking on the second word. “He escaped, he—oh my—I can’t—I can’t do this, Wil, I can’t do it again, I know he’s your hero and I know you don’t believe me but he’s fucking, he was there, he was after me, and he’s hiding now, he’s waiting for you to leave me again—” “Dream’s out of the prison?” Wilbur asks quietly. Tommy makes a desperate, terror-stricken noise. “Please don’t let him get to me.” - (based off of tommy's stream from when dream breaks out. an au where he runs into wilbur instead of phil.)
c!crimeboys the beloved. the characterisation is on point and all of the descriptions are fantastic. what should have been canon

DSMP Fic Rec #4?
chills running down your spine by AnguishedPlanet [T, 377, One Shot]
Tommy-centric but also includes a little Tubbo analysis. As a treat
given by soul_speed [G, 2734, One Shot]
Hotelduo, nice. Just protective Sam and Tommy :’)
The Warden Watches by JumpingInMuddyPuddles [T, 5179, One Shot]
Another Hotelduo fic. Basically a study on Sam’s and Tommy’s relationship and how it developed throughout the history of the server.
Wake Up  by penink [M, 37522, WIP]
An alt ending of The Dead Don’t Dream. Definitely recommend it if you like horror and are more interested in the dark aspects of TDDD
Vampire TommyInnit by Impala_Cherry_Trickster [Series]
Read this back in March. Super cool fic where Tommy basically gets adopted by sbi. I think this one has cool bedrock bros interactions
planetarium stickers by Zannolin [T, 7842, One Shot]
Crimeboys angst with a happy ending. “Tubbo leaves, Wilbur comes back. Lose one friend, regain another.”
Butterfly Reign by SilentTeyz [124204, Work in Progress]
Despite being so popular I just recently discovered this fic and it’s so interesting. The world-building? Character development? Just everything about this fic? Obsessed

This post has three updates!!
I was gone for awhile due to no internet at my new house and then also no high-speed data for tumblr to load. So, I am just now able to get these out here.
This will be a loong post about three different works I have written and published while I have been absent!
Chapter 8 of "Bonds Thicker Than Blood" (BTTB),
coming out at 3.9k words for this chapter.
The following picture has all of the content warnings and potential triggers that the chapter might have.
Please make me aware of any that I might've missed!
Tumblr media
For my second update, I bring the Halloween BTTB fic I wrote on Halloween. I almost finished it but time caught me and I had to sleep.
"This Is Halloween" with a word count of 3.5k words.
There are no tags or content warnings and if there need to be, let me know!
At last, I have another BTTB fic. This time, one out of the two planned prequels.
"Flower Fields and Golden Rays", A beeduo/Tubbo centric fic coming to 2.1k words for the first chapter.
Following triggers and warnings are as follows.

If y’all like superhero aus, please feel free to feed my ego by checking out this fic!
Summary: It’s been about two months since Tommy’s world collapsed around him, and now he’s dragging The Angel of Death up the stairs of his apartment building, because the idiot got stabbed and then passed out in the alleyway next to his house. And he would rather not have to walk by a rotting corpse every time he has to take out the trash. So he attempts first aid, has an odd, brief conversation, stumbles through an awful day at work, and then attempts to continue living his “normal” “civilian life” without anymore unwelcome interruptions.
This unwelcome interruption calls himself Wilbur, and Wilbur has a very punchable face. Tommy tells him this, very helpfully, the first time they meet. Then semi-regularly after that.

Fan Fiction Rec / Tracking
Chance Encounters (are what keep us going) by Viokaea
Dream SMP - Technoblade-Centric - Space Fic
Summary:
Techno slammed his fists against the transparent wall of his prison, trying his best to break it down. His captors backed up, whistling anxiously to each other. He gave the barrier another loud crack, delightedly watching as they scrambled away in abject terror. Nodding in satisfaction, he turned around to meet the eyes of two other prisoners that had been thrown into his cell. He froze. Right. There were now aliens in his cell. And he probably just scared the hell out of them.   Or: Humans are a dangerous race feared by all on an intergalactic scale. Techno, a human ex-soldier that was abducted by aliens 18 months ago, is biding his time in captivity. This changes when two young aliens are sent into his cell to die.
Published: 2023-06-01 Completed:2023-08-01 Words: 70,785 Chapters: 13/13

Hermitcraft Fic Rec!
HELLO. i have hundreds, HUNDREDS of hermitcraft fanfiction bookmarked and living in my brain without rent. Breaking this up into categories for some of my PERSONAL favorite fics in the fandom- including categories for shipping, crossover, and worldbuilding.
Some of these fics are from 2019 but generally speaking you don't need knowledge of past seasons you should be able to pick up on just about all of them. a lot of these are mostly included BECAUSE they're older and therefore, harder to accidentally stumble upon. put in no particular order.
If your fic is on here and you'd like it removed, send an Ask with the fic, a dm, etc
World Building
The Parting Glass / To Pass The Jungle You Have To Go All The Way Around - Sekrap.
Doc has been trying to forget. He has done everything everyone told him he should do to make the memories go away. And still the jungle calls for him. / He was a monster. Then, a man. Now, a machine. Doc, once a normal Creeper, was not meant to live. Let alone become a Player. He learned to speak, he learned to fight, he learned to build. Some things stayed the same. aka- the Domestic Creeper au.
____
Carpet Trick - CrazyCatMeow
You all know the double carpet trick right? What happens when that joint with a tired mad scientist meet.
Mob hybrids can't see carpets <3 extra silly and very lighthearted
____
Window Pane - blueticked
Tango and Impulse discuss the brand new presence of Helsknight.
It's not a coincidence that all the evil personas have red eyes.
Tango is a Hels, struggling with self-acceptance and his place in Hermitcraft, which was never meant to be for him. in my head ALL THE TIME
____
"I know" - KindaJustHere
Bdubs was used to death. He was used to being killed by his fellow hermits. He was very used to being killed by Grian. Maybe a little too much.
(This is based off Grian’s episode 61 of hermitcraft season 7 where Bdubs says “I know” and shoots himself) BDUBS SELF ESTEEM ANGST!! Griangst !!!! Emotionally fucked up Grian from YHS !!
____
Hiss and Scratch - TheNerdyTurtle96
Doc is a mad scientist who isn't afraid of anything. Actually, that's not true. His only weakness is cats.
exactly like it said it is . SO GOOD AND CUTE
____
For the Record - Anonymous
Tango shrugged. “Yeah, I guess I did. Xisuma’s teaching Impulse some Galactic Standard so he can cheat at enchanting or something. Apparently Xelqua’s, like, some sort of god in Xisuma’s culture? It was kind of unclear, I wasn’t paying attention when Impulse told me.”
“Huh,” Grian said vacantly. “How about that.”
oops! Grian is Xisuma's god. amazing
____ GrianMC - SixteenthDays
“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” Techno says frankly.
“You know,” Grian says again. “Your- Watchers.”
Techno squints for a moment before understanding visibly dawns behind his eyes. “Ohhh, you mean Chat?”
(On watchers, and Watchers.)
This IS technically a crossover but its more worldbuilding than anything else. its literally so funny. i love it
Crossover
These Days I Don't Feel Like Myself At All / Mercury (No One Can Unring This Bell) (Series Ongoing) - RoguishOne (DarkWolfMoon)
TommyInnit had died. Again. To Dream. Again. And it sucked exactly as much as he thought it would because he'd wanted to move on and have a chance to actually live this time. Seems he won't be getting that.
Then he gets pulled out of Limbo, but he doesn't wake up back in the cell with Dream or next to his bed on the server. He doesn't wake up on the Dream SMP at all.
Little does he know that this is the least of his worries.
i want to scream and cry and hypervenilate thinking about this fic series. literally cannot recommend it enough. your life will be ROCKED. THE WRITING IS SOOOOO OGOOOD . i just want to shake. i cannot put into words what this fic makes me feel.
____
Shells in the Foam (a Hermit!Tommy fanfic) - Cedarwhisp21
When Dream attacks Tommy in Logestshire, Tommy runs. Badly injured, he somehow manages to slip between worlds and wakes up in a badlands biome, on a server far from home, with no other players in sight.
The Hermits are surprised when a new player logs in, and confused when no-one's at spawn. Five days later, after waiting for the new player to introduce themselves, Xisuma uses his admin abilities to access their coordinates. He takes Impulse with him to welcome the new player to Hermitcraft, but instead of the beginnings of a base, they find something a lot more concerning.
NEEDS NO INTRODUCTION. the NUMBER ONE kudo-ed hermit fic . by my beloved. and using the one of the beloved au by pertrichormeraki . its so good and im sooo glad i was here for the ride of seeing it unfold <3
____
let me give you a piece of my mind - Interjection
Dream and Grian practice building for MCC, and hold a conversation in the process.
Or,
Grian gives an outside perspective on Dream’s actions. Dream is having none of it.
Grian is a fucked up lil guy <3 Dream is a piece of shit
____
He would not die - Nicoforlife
If phil could save only one person from this place, that would be enough.
Tldr I made phil a watcher :)
Watcher Phil and Grian !! ! !!
____
Scared as hell - Nhi_theuserof_this
Grian was one of the closest people to Fundy at this point. He wants to be honest, really, but with the rest of his family history being a total train wreck, he spends an awkwardly long time dancing around what he wants to say.
Tldr; Grian is Fundy’s uncle, Fundy comes out to him
OK SO THIS ONE. WAS BASED OFF ONE OF MY AUS but i had to include it. ok .short and sweet
It was just a game - QuasarsFaults (UNFINISHED)
Taurtis Has been on the server awhile now, he's made new friends, a really tasty toritos shop, a new job working with Concorp, and he's even made this really cool pirate rollercoaster. So why did his and Scar's idea go so wrong?
OK. so i honest to god cannot remember if this is my au or if i just partook in it. i think its my au. who knows. either way seeing this again makes me want to work on my own Taurtis-Became-a-Hermit-Instead-of-Grian fic
Shipping
heartfelt confession - mysteryguest
it shouldn't come as a surprise to iskall, he thinks, when he finally settles on a term that feels just right. and yet, it is. and it's dreadful, feeling that urge, that need to tell someone, without knowing if they would accept you or not.
at least he knows the person he can trust the most with this info is his boyfriend, mumbo.
non-binary and bigender Mumskull !!! coming out. finding identity. finding pronouns.
____
I Hate You (I Promise I Don't) - BewitchingNotes
If someone asked Grian why he was relentlessly pranking Etho now that he was finally back in Hermitland, he'd say it was just for pure fun.
To Etho, it meant Grian was mad at him.
To everyone else, Grian had a huge crush on the redstone user and obviously didn't know how to communicate it.
OR: Grian just wants Etho's attention, Etho misreads this as Grian being mad at him, Grian thinks Etho hates him because of his pranks and everyone else just wants these boys to communicate properly already. Grian's love language is pranks...i love it
____ A Study Of Love in the Universe Itself - 2point5
Love had a strange meaning on Hermitcraft, where everyone loved each other. 
OR
Joe looks into the different ways he loves some of his fellow members, and what that means for him as a human.
ITS A SERIES TOO AND ITS SOOOO GOOD i love it . Joe x Cleo x Bdubs x Etho . what more could you want. and their sexualities and how they perceive love is . OAUGHHGHGGHHGHGHBHGHFHHVIJXFSHDF IUSDHIUSAHDUIA

c!beeduo fic recs!
It’s time y’all :) c!beeduo fic recs for the soul
This will consist of platonic, ambiguous, romantic, and au fic recs, so read at your own discretion. Obviously, all sfw, and NO CC’S!
————————————————————————
☆ Wedding Bells by Doodlebloo
“Hey, Ranboo?" Tubbo asks, breaking him from his thoughts. "Hm?" "What kind of cake do you think we'll want?" "I- Sorry, what?" "What kind of cake are you thinking? I like ice cream cake quite a lot, but I don't know if that's-" "Cake... For what?" Tubbo's expression softens, and he pulls his legs up onto the counter to sit criss cross, still not quite eye level with Ranboo. "For our wedding, big man."
Or: After several months of relative peace on the Dream SMP, Tubbo and Ranboo finally feel secure enough to plan a real, proper wedding. It turns out that wedding planning may be a bit harder than they thought.
*A cute slice of life fic where c!Beeduo plans their wedding and everyone tags along! One of my favorite c!Beeduo fics EVER, I love this story so much and re-read it constantly. Doodlebloo is a c!Beeduo writer I love so she’ll be on here a lot lol
(Incomplete, ambiguous, fanon storyline)
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/29919273/chapters/73639017
────────────
☆ Ad Astra by Hellenite
Tubbo’s a smuggler who really only cares about having fuel in his tanks and making it to the next sol cycle, likes to think he’s pretty level headed, but this spoiled Ender prince is really testing his resolve not to shoot him out of the airlock.
*I love this story so much! An incredible space-alien-fighters-I-don’t-even-know AU that’s so well written. Will get you HOOKED and screaming in your pillow bc AGH, and one of my favorite Beeduo reads of all time ofc LOL. There’s a second part of the story in Ranboo’s POV linked here!
(Complete, ambiguous, AU)
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/34950871/chapters/87039697
────────────
☆ Bishop’s Knife Trick by bovinedaemon
Ran is an assassin from another dimension assigned to take out the city Subbin’s new general. But once he gets tangled up in solving a kidnapping plot, misgivings towards an impossible target, a drill sergeant job, and a slowly unfolding mystery, he realizes it’s going to be a lot harder than he thought…
*The author has stated that the Ran and Jackie in this are their original characters, but that’s bc all the c!Beeduo /p truthers were harassing them. Ran and Jackie are from Tales of the SMP and are based on c!Beeduo, so I think of it as a c!Beeduo AU bc I don’t see anything wrong with the story. But I’m not gonna insist it’s c!Beeduo if the author isn’t comfortable with that! I definitely think it’s an INCREDIBLE read and can be viewed aside from this list. Anyways. SUPER INTERESTING MYSTERY AND ROMANCE STORY! I WAS LITERALLY HOOKED ON UPDATES FOR THIS ONE.

☆ standing at a lightswitch by DeadPatrol
“I would nuke someone for you,” Tubbo says plainly with all the confidence in the world. Because he has. He’s done it before and he would do it again in an instant — a thousand times over. It strikes him with a sudden gripping fury. He needs Ranboo to know. He needs Ranboo to know it like Tubbo knows it, deep and intrinsic. Utter truth. “That’s… nice?” Ranboo says, hesitant, cautious, nervous. “Your face is nice,” Tubbo spits, because that’s also the truth. “Thank you?” Ranboo’s voice pitches up into incredulity. Ranboo doesn’t get it. And Tubbo desperately tries to convince himself that that’s alright. He will soon. It’s a work in progress.
Modern Setting Reincarnation AU: With the server reset impending, Tubbo made a Deal With The Drista. Now, Tubbo is the only one in the new world who remembers their past life and the events of the Dream SMP, and he's on a mission to reunite with all the people who don't remember him. This time, he will protect them.
*Basically what the description says. A canon-storyline reincarnation AU that’s c!Tubbo centric and isn’t entirely based on c!Beeduo but is still an amazing read!

☆ And Then You Fell in Love? by Doodlebloo
Ranboo brushes a thumb over his memory book, the knowledge of Tubbo's entry still fresh in his mind from his quick recap on the way over. Tubbo: Ex-president. Tommy's friend. Lives in Snowchester. Friend?  "You don't have to, I guess," Tubbo shrugs, rubbing his hands together for warmth. "Just a suggestion." "You're sure you want me to live here?"  Tubbo frowns. "Why wouldn't I?" "Well, I mean, we're... We're not exactly friends." Tubbo's hand - the bad one, the one that's mostly scar tissue - twitches, and Ranboo can sense that he's said something wrong. "Are we not?"
Ranboo and Tubbo go from barely friends to doting husbands in a matter of weeks, adopting a child and building a mansion somewhere along the way. Here are some of the moments in between.
*Another banger Doodlebloo fic! A canon based c!Beeduo fic on how they realistically went from being tentative friends to loving husbands. Down-to-Earth and really puts them as a pair into perspective

like orange juice in a mug by poettree
Tubbo loved love. He did. He truly did. But love didn’t love him back. And it was so much harder this year than the last one, to act as if he was fine this week… because, unlike last year, this year he was in love. And unlike last year, this year Tubbo had to deal with the heartache that rejection left behind.
—or, when Tubbo is an oblivious fool in love, Ranboo is a cowardly fool in love, and Tommy tries to play cupid and fucks up instead. Also, add into the mix a shitty handmade mug, some orange juice, and an unethically placed love potion.
*I loved this one so much! A harry potter AU of c!Beeduo. Such a feel good and a lovely read, I smiled so much while reading this

Disney fixes everything, including memory problems by GeekyGlasses
[The arguing starts up again, this time with both Techno and Kristin joining in (although much calmer), and Phil once again sighs. The camera quickly shifts to Ranboo and Tubbo's car, the energy the complete opposite. Michael is still asleep, and it's quiet except for some soft music playing in the background. Tubbo looks over at Ranboo and smiles. Ranboo turns and returns the smile before they both turn back to look at the road. The POV switches back to the screaming van, Phil rubbing his head as his family continues to argue. He shifts in his seat again as if repreparing himself for the drive.]
"10 hours, let's hope I can make it."
*A modern AU of c!Beeduo and c!SBI (with Kristin!). I read this one A WHILE ago so I honestly don’t remember it that much, but I remember I loved it. A good luck charlie type blog for Ranboo, and it was cute seeing all of them together like a big family

I Love You (That’s Not Possible) by ToriBlueBird
Tubbo wasn't lovable. Tubbo was hard edges and barriers and locked away secrets. Tubbo was hands tightened around a sword and refusing to let go. Tubbo was dusty records and tall walls and joking at the wrong time. Tubbo saw the way people danced around him. How they treated him like glass or treated him like dirt. How they smiled tightly at him or balked at his apathy. Tubbo wasn't lovable.
Or, Ranboo brings up that he loves Tubbo, and Tubbo doesn't understand how anyone could possibly love him.
*ToriBlueBird, a c!Tubbo and c!Beeduo writer I ADORE! This one was so cute, I love how sweetly they were written in this. THEY LOVE EACH OTHER SM!!!

Kiss, Kiss, Kiss by orphan_account
There was something quite liberating, he found, in being able to show how much he loved his husband. Some things were awkward to confess to while they were both awake. Sometimes, there weren’t the right words to admit it. But, as one hand curled itself in Ranboo’s hair and the other rested on the Enderman’s chest, Tubbo felt himself smile between the pecking.  Beeduo fluff where they kiss

“Before he realizes it Tubbo is reaching out, and suddenly their fingers are brushing against eachother and— oh god. 
There it is. The vibrations that emit from his chest, sent through his gangly limbs like a shock through his veins. It's inevitable and annoying and Ranboo knows it's because he's so horribly comfortable around Tubbo and it's just so.. embarrassing. Weird. Strange. 
He thinks maybe he would die if Tubbo found out about it.” 
Or, 3 times Ranboo hides his affection for Tubbo, + the 1 time he doesn’t. 
(*clears throat* Badically Ranboo purrs when he’s comfortable/calm as a way to show affection and being relaxed. Having being made fun of for it in the past, he forces himself to hide it from Tubbo in fear and utter anxiety of it happening again. Ranboo makes a mistake, and accidentally upsets Tubbo.)

Human Resources by Doodlebloo
"Ranboo, are we getting a divorce?" Ranboo immediately stiffens, freezing in place, breathing stuttered. "...Do you want to get a divorce?" Ranboo tries to keep his tone even, and it's a valiant effort, but Tubbo can hear the tears he's barely holding back.
Ranboo and Tubbo have an argument over two burger restaurants. In a shocking turn of events, this does not lead to a divorce.
*LMAO this was from back in the day when the DSMP was still going on. I tend to wipe the divorce arc from my brain, but when I do think abt it this fic is a good consolation to me. What I think SHOULD’VE happened between c!Beeduo… but ofc 🙄. UGH don’t get me started

"Twenty wives," Tubbo says, staring at Ranboo with something unreadable in his eyes.
"He's gonna make fun of me, y'know," Tubbo continues, leaning forward enough that Ranboo can smell the alcohol on his breath. "I don't even have one wife."
"Yeah?" they whisper back, forcing their voice to maintain its lighthearted tone. "Not sure that's much of a secret."
"Maybe not." Tubbo narrows his eyes, reaching out and placing a hand on Ranboo's chest. "Maybe I don't want a wife."

"What are you supposed to be?" Asks Ranboo, and Wilbur pushes his glasses up the bridge of his nose with a chuckle.
"I thought the scariest costume of all would be to just go as myself. You know, Ranboo, often times people are the real monsters. Sometimes looking in the mirror is just as horrific as any-"
"Boo!" Michael squeals from right behind Wilbur, who must jump at least a foot into the air.
"Jesus fucking christ!" Wilbur shrieks, and the group bursts into laughter around him.

Ranboo and Tubbo take Michael to a Halloween party. Michael is surprisingly good at scaring people.

Michael stares outside with bouncing excitement, all previous remains of exhaustion wiped clean from his face. He looks back at Ranboo, tugging on his pants. Ranboo chuckles, ruffling his son's tufts of course hair. "We'll play outside when you eat breakfast, bud."

It’s All Sacrifice and Violence (The History of Love) by Viola_riviniana
“Are you going to leave?” Tubbo glares, raises an expectant eyebrow. Ghostboo, still peering in through the doorway, lingers for a moment, before turning to him, “Uh, no I think I’m gonna stay.” Tubbo scowls, sighs, shoves the chest into the ghost’s lanky arms, “Well if you're staying then you can make yourself useful.” “Sure!” Ghostboo adjusts his grip on the box, “Doing what?” Tubbo heads back inside, heaves another (mercifully lighter) chest up, “We’re bringing these to the mansion,” he says, begins the familiar trek only for Ghostboo to easily outpace him, returns on second thought and locks the cabin door. Ghostboo slides his way over icy paths, spindly legs shaking on the stairs up the cliffside, “Careful,” Tubbo ascends behind him, passes the struggling ghost and is followed the rest of the way back. The mansion looms in the afternoon light, shadow stretching out long and dark as they enter, and Tubbo watches Ghostboo twirl in a wide circle, face tilted toward the ceiling. “It’s pretty in here,” he says. Tubbo sets his chest down, “Yeah,” takes in the curved staircase, chandelier, the high ceilings, and nods, “It was.”

A (not so normal) Night In The _Beloved Household by compoundeyed
He walked across the hall and peeked into the living room. The lights were off and it was dark outside, but against the white snow outside the window Tubbo could make out a silhouette. Ranboo sat perched in the couch's armrest like some sort of creature, tail swishing back and forth.
"There you are! I'm done with the dishes, Boo." Tubbo walked towards them. Then they turned around and he froze in his tracks.
Their eyes were glowing purple.

domestic bliss by thanotaphobia (blue000jay)
They bring Michael back to Snowchester on Valentine’s Day, a few days before they impulsively get married. It’s a joke at first-- a cute little mob that had gotten attached to Ranboo, who had toddled on baby legs, following them to the portal and clutching to a chicken’s feathery down the whole way. They’d lured him gently, promises of gold and meat, and he’d followed right into the overworld and through the snow and chill to Snowchester. By then, they’d gained his trust enough for the kid to let them pick him up, a tiny little thing that was mostly bone and leathery, half-zombified skin.
Or: Tubbo and Ranboo adopt a kid, get married, get divorced, and have a time of it. Not necessarily in that order.

My all-time favourite DNF fanfiction
Over the last year and a half, I have read almost every single DNF fic that has been posted to AO3, yet ended up with a rec list with just over 10 fics. These are my favourite favourite DNF fics. If you think I’ve missed something - let me know!! I always need new fanfic to read :)
This list will be updated when I find something that I think deserves a top spot. Please make sure you read tags before reading, because a lot of these will have adult content and other possibly triggering subjects. I hope you enjoy!
Heat Waves by tbhyourelame
Word count :  51,840
Dream has always held a gentle admiration for George, but when their nuanced friendship trickles into his sleeping mind, he awakens to a new world of conflicting emotions and longing. Lost in the midst of a heat wave, he continuously listens to a song that works itself in to the very core of his heartache. Floridian nights, unsent messages, spiraling infatuation, and terrible, terrible weather.
This is an obvious recommendation but how could I actually make a fic rec list without putting heatwaves on it. It has great characterisation, a lot of the plot is true to real life or close to real life, and it has a painfully accurate amount of overthinking and pining. Heatwaves itself is finished, however the sequel Helium is a WIP, which the author has said they currently have no plans of finishing. Either way, it’s well worth reading, and a must-read to anyone new to the fandom or new to reading fics. 
When by hayloftown
Word count :  163,493
Trust doesn't come easily, but fear does. Dream was dealt a bad hand, who can blame him for his hostility? Or, in which Dream comes from a bad background and finds safety in a new home. Whether that "home" be the place or the people, he is unsure.
God, hayloftown’s fics are incredible. I am not joking when I tell you I have never cried more at a book or fanfic EVER. It was devastating. That being said I literally had to read it in one sitting. This fic describes complex emotions, feelings and especially bonds between people incredibly, and it is so enjoyable to watch dream’s character develop throughout. I actually felt hollow after reading this, because by the end I loved all the characters so much I never wanted it to end. This fic has some pretty heavy themes, so please read tags before reading this one. 
Stars, Stripes and Aristocratic Snobs by hayloftown
Word count :  122,536
Even hundreds of years since their historical wars over independence, American politics and British royalty still struggle to get along, as seen in the rivalry between first son Clay “Dream” Chapman and Prince George of Wales. After a week long trip to the UK after the "tragic" passing of Prince Charles, the successor to the throne and Prince George's father, the two are forced to get along and put forth a better front for the ever-present media.
It’s only fair to have two works by hayloftown on this list, because they are both favourites of mine. I am such a sucker for royalty au’s (prepare to lots more on this list) so this was perfect to me. The summary says everything you need to know about this fic, so I won’t say too much, but I really enjoyed George and Dream’s dynamic in this fic, and I’m a slut for george in a position of power (sorry not sorry). 
I’ve Never Fallen From Quite This High by Scoops (consciousness_streaming)
Word count :  92,419
A phone call out of the blue after two months in Florida turns George's life up side down. As one relationship falls apart, another falls together.
This fic is soooo good. Without spoiling too much, George deals with his parents’ relationship problems whilst developing a relationship with dream (I’m telling you this because I had this in my marked for later for ages and I didn’t read it because I was scared the aforementioned relationship that was falling apart was karlnap lol). If you love family dynamics and domestic fluff this is a must read. George’s mum is the main character in this honestly she’s such an icon, but I just love the dynamic between all the characters in this. 10/10 would recommend. 
The mon cœur s'ouvre à ta voix series by saintaches
Word count : 108,775 across three works
Dream and George attend the same prestigious conservatoire, and they fucking hate each other.
I will admit that I originally clicked on this fic for the porn. However, after reading the plot that came with the porn, it turned into one of my favourite fics ever. It’s so beautifully written, a bit purple prosey at times, and is honestly art in writing form. Honestly parts of these works are a little devastating, but its worth it for the development of both dream and George individually and their relationship. 
Metanoia by 24notfound
Word count :  246,211
Following the death of Queen of Salacia, George is thrown into kingship. And in reluctantly preparing for an indefinite war on the account of avenging his mother, George's vision seems to get blurred by the unlikely and unexpected bond he forms with the Prince of Vulcan: Dream.
Honestly this is just the perfect fantasy dnf fic, combining royalty and war with elemental powers. Aside from all the family dynamics and dnf’s actual relationship, the two things that I loved the most in this fic were the relationship between George, Karl and Quackity and their wonderful outfit’s and parties. Another perfect work. 
as for praise and worship by squigly
Word count :  121,006
George is a detective working for Scotland Yard investigating a string of art thefts linked to grisly murders. Dream is a gambler who knows more than he lets on. They can't stay away from each other, even when they should.
This is such a wonderful plot heavy story, and the way squigly created this world and developed the story around Dream and George’s characters will have you gripped from the first chapter. Honestly, this story deserves to be published as a novel, it just has such an immersive and exciting storyline that I have no doubt you will read this in one setting (just like I did).
for you, the stars by andthentheybow
Word count :  115,149
There is exactly one person in the entire universe that knows Doctor George Davidson is alive, and that’s George himself. Even with everything against him- starvation, damaged machinery, the environment, and human error- he’s determined to not become the first person to die on Mars. And once they find out he’s alive, his crew resolves to do everything they can to bring him home.
When I first read the description for this fic I was not expecting to love it as much as I do simply because the situation is so far removed from both cc!dnf and c!dnf that it didn’t feel like it would work. However, their characters in this are so true to real life, and the astronauts have to face publicity and pressure from the public. I love this because I feel like georges intelligence gets lost all the time in fanfiction, but hes appreciated in all his genius glory here, pure bamf George through and through. Good bit of angst and pining, a side of karlnap, and really funny roles for a lot of the other smp members, this is just a really enjoyable read.
Reflections by darlingsdream
Word count :  128,341
In which Dream is assigned as Prince George's new personal guard and finds that it is surprisingly easy to fall for the royal with the spunky attitude but incredibly hard to keep his secrets from him.
This is a perfect Prince!George / Knight!Dream story. It has lots of plot twists and angst but its worth it for such a good story. If you love fantasy or the dynamic between princes and their guard, you will love this. I need to reread this asap tbh.
cinnamon and swirl by offday
Word count :  83,327
Sapnap stays quiet a moment, and while Dream sniffles, the little girl in his lap turns, taps against his face like the tears are common. Dream kisses at her hand, promises her he is okay. He acts like nothing is wrong. Like Sapnap isn’t crying in front of him too, when he should be scolding Dream.
“Why didn’t you?” Sapnap asks as he swipes the back of his hand over his nose. “I mean, not even George?”
Dream decides to tell his friends about his daughter right before they move in.
This is hands down the best DNF kid fic ever!! For some reason, I much prefer kid fics where one person is a single parent and the other person joins them later on. This fic is just perfect. I love that it’s not an AU (other than the fact dream is a dad), I live for uncle Sapnap and dreamnap’s friendship and I would die for protective dad!dream like that’s so attractive are you kidding me. I don’t care if you don’t normally like kid fics, read this now!!
Protected by Anonymous 
Word Count :  102,200
Dream is the Crown Prince and the future king. His sworn duty is to protect his kingdom from outside threats, especially from the scourge of magic.
George is his best friend and, technically, his servant. And he has a secret.
I wish the author of this fic would reveal themselves because I would die to read more of their work. Anyway. I love this so so much. It’s a merlin AU fic where George has magic in a kingdom where magic is banned. Another great one for anyone that likes royalty au’s and once again it has a healthy amount of pining and angst all mixed in with fluff and fantasy and ugh I love it. A lot of fantasy fics are heavy on dream protecting George but I love the dynamic in this where magic George is secretly protecting dream and saving his life. To be honest this fic lives in my head rent-free sometimes. Even if you think this won’t be your cup of tea please just give it a try because it’s so good!
