SBI Whumptober day 18!

thought i would drop this here too :)

tw: traumatic flashback, talk of past abuse

It had been a good day.

A good month, really.

Autumn had arrived and with it the crisp smell of leaves and lingering pumpkin spice. They’d celebrated six months of Tommy officially being adopted with pumpkin donuts and hot chocolate.

Wilbur couldn’t be happier.

Though Tommy still had to sleep in the same room as Wilbur, sometimes with the lights on. They still had to sit down every Sunday and plan out the week to avoid extra stress. And sometimes Tommy had bad days where his wings, that of a bat, were too heavy. That his ears picked up too many sounds and everything felt like he was once again trapped in that little closet with no way out.

Those days were hard.

But, so far, it hadn’t been one of those days.

They’d spent the day together tidying the house, folding blankets and sweeping floors. It had been pleasant, with fall candles and music filling the air. Wilbur had made one of Tommy’s favorite desserts, fruit cake, in honor of surviving another week.

Then, they’d watched a Halloween movie (kid appropriate, of course. Tommy may have been mature but he was still only 10). Tommy had curled up next to him on the couch, protesting lightheartedly when Wilbur flicked his bat ears to make them twitch. They were like cat ears in that way and it never failed to amuse Wilbur.

Tommy had fallen asleep next to Wilbur.

He took his little fuzzball of a kid back to his room and laid with him until he started to drift off, letting the long productive day wash over him with a smile.

Wilbur pulled a soft blanket over Tommy, draping it over him.

That was, objectively, a bad idea.

Tommy awoke with a jump when the fabric touched his wings. Wilbur titled his head to look at the boy, his mind fuzzy and half asleep.

“Are you alright, fuzzball?”

Tommy didn’t reply. Wilbur could feel his heart rate spike from where Tommy laid next to him. His rough breathing became audible as the boy spiraled into a panic and pushed away from Wilbur.

Wilbur let out a terrified exhale and began mentally going through his checklist for when this happened. When his son could remember nothing but the tears he’d spent in hell.

Wilbur unwrapped himself from Tommy, still remaining within arms distance as he gently talked the boy down.

“You’re having a flashback, Tommy,” he stated calmly. “You’re in your house with me, your dad. And you’re safe and loved.”

Tommy remained curled in on himself, wings wrapped tightly around his body as if shielding him from his memories.

Wilbur didn’t blame him. The world had been cruel to him. From birth, he’d been passed around to foster homes who still believed it was alright to keep bat hybrids crammed in small dark spaces. When that inhumane torture finally became illegal, he fell into Wilbur’s care. Together, they’d gone through dozens of therapy and psychologist appointments. They visited eye doctors to fix the eye strain that came with so many years in dark enclosed spaces.

And it began to work. Tommy would start sleeping without the lights on. He could have a blanket without feeling like he was too enclosed. He could learn to read without straining his eyes.

Nights like these still happened, though not nearly as often.

“Can I touch you, fuzzball? It’s me, Wilbur. Your dad,” he gently moved closer to the boy, making sure to not let his hand graze his son’s back despite how much he wanted to comfort the little one.

Tommy nodded, eyes fixed on the other side of the room as he hugged himself tighter.

Wilbur wrapped himself around his boy, pulling him close and whispering reassurances into his soft curls.

“You’re having a flashback. You’re here. You’re safe. You’re loved. I love you. I love you more than anything.”

Tommy remained pressed against him and cried into his shirt.

“It’s– not fair–” Tommy choked out, voice breaking.

“I know it’s not, fuzzball. I know it’s not,” Wilbur agreed, letting out a quiet sigh of relief that Tommy was pulling himself out of the flashback.

“Promise you’ll–” he sniffled “-stay here. Watch- watch over me?”

Wilbur’s heart melted. He kissed Tommy’s forehead, placing his head on top of his son’s as if shielding him. This time from the world instead of his own mind.

“Of course, Tommy.”

The boy in his arms– his son -sniffled and Wilbur felt something wrap around him. He looked up from resting his head on Tommy’s to see his son’s wings wrapped around him like a hug.

“Tommy-” he began, tearing up.

“Thank you… dad.”

Wilbur didn’t try to hide his tears after that. It didn’t matter that the ‘dad’ seemed like a nervous afterthought, it still meant the world to him. He readjusted Tommy to hold him closer, his wings wrapping further around Wilbur in the process.

“I love you, fuzzball.”

“I love you too, dad.”

And the second time Tommy called Wilbur his dad, he sounded sure of it.

do you think deep inside Vidia is really sensitive? (even if she doesn’t always shows it)

it already started at the beginning of “The Great Fairy Rescue” when Tinkerbell sneaked off to find lost things and Vidia had to be the one to remind her about the humans before the other girls showed up to Tinkerbell

then the part she saw Tinkerbell actually REALLY going after the humans (rather more like after the car then the actual humans but you know Tinkerbell) Vidia didn’t followed Tinkerbell to make Tinkerbell feel miserable nor out of bully, instead as a fact she HAD to make sure Tinkerbell stayed out from troubles with her fear from the humans, even if she wasn’t too thrilled to do that job (and she stopped Tinkerbell from flying to the humans even if her wings WERE wet)

then the fairy house that is made by a little girl Lizzy she thought it was gonna be trapped and was obviously scared NOT by herself but for Tinkerbell, kind of the opposite way then she used to be in the 1st movie and when she DID trapped Tinkerbell, she TRIED to get Tinkerbell out once she heard Lizzy coming from far (i’m still surprised she stayed much longer to Tinkerbell then she did in the 1st Tinkerbell movie)

then the part she had regretted for her actions from slamming the door when in reality it wasn’t her intention to get Tinkerbell unlocked and trapped inside the house (just when Tink have probably thought she have ranaway or something, what she didn’t know is that Vidia was still nearby but she was hidding herself in the grass from the human girl and didn’t plan to abandone her, and she carefully followed the girl behind)

she got scared from all these butterflies she have saw thinking the same thing is gonna happen to Tinkerbell very soon also seeing 1 butterfly in the jar that is still alive (the younger me thought she was completely heartless but seeing the butterflies like that, even the 1 that is still alive and judging by her face when it involves Tinkerbell she got a lot more scared with the thought Tinkerbell is gonna be killed from the humans and might not live with herself if that happens)

she again got scared, this time by a cat it attacked Tinkerbell and actually hopes Tinkerbell can save herself out from the house since Vidia couldn’t do anything against it, but once Tink was put in a cage, she flew away to call the others for help to come up with a plan to save her (she probably thought the human girl was a monster or something when in reality she kept Tinkerbell safe from the cat)

judging by her face she feels guilty about the way she treated Tinkerbell from earlier and how it trapped Tinkerbell inside by accident and hopes she can save her from the humans before it’s too late

in further adventures Vidia was hurt feeling so offended and insulted the others maked fun of Tinkerbell and couldn’t keep her secret guilt for any longer and stood up for Tink by defending her (i mean think about it nobody expect Vidia herself knew the full story from what she have saw and teared up, feeling so upset this happened thinking she’s the reason Tinkerbell is in a real danger, she kind of was horrified in that scene instead of angry)

just like any other fairies, Vidia also showed her sensitive side and allthough she knew about a cat that is in a house that loves to eat fairies, even she didn’t knew what to do about a cat (and with the plates a cat walked in to attack them all, she was the safest out of the group from a cat to look for Tinkerbell on her own instead while the others distract the cat, i can tell whenever she got attacked by a cat or WATCH it happening, she was terrified and scared to even know what to do and had that “uh oh what do i do?” look)

she got scared and terrified in this scene she took a high risk from being seen by the humans, she obviously didn’t hesistated to come in action rather then runaway from it and instead of Tinkerbell, it was Vidia who took that place in the end and got captured inside by pushing Tink aside (something tells me she have already forgiven Tinkerbell before she did from the others otherwise she would’ve abandoned her a long time ago, Tinkerbell wouldn’t even be alive if Vidia didn’t showed up at all)

she didn’t wanted Tinkerbell to risk her own life for Vidia to save her before it’s too late because of the dad, she begged and pleaded her not to fly from under the car but Tinkerbell did it anyway

when i thought she didn’t showed up...SHE DID, if a few seconds later then the rest of the gangs, she catched up with them, she was shocked and concerned but not that bad

Vidia stayed calm when Periwinkle was in a kind of danger but i can tell she was scared but she probably hidded it for the sake of Tinkerbell and Periwinkle by saying they were gonna make it on time so Periwinkle’s wings are saved while she and Tinkerbell took a huge risk from their wings by doing so

she grabbed Tinkerbell so their wings are saved aswell knowing Tinkerbell that won’t think rationally about a situation, i feel like she actually feel her pain for once and actually stayed by her side (i just wished she did more then just standing there with the rest of the gangs since she’s still outspoken like she was at first but other then that, we DO have a few times where she shows she DOES care for others a lot especially Tink)

she and Fawn were the ones comforting her and try to take her home (Vidia act like a mom or big sister to me)

Vidia was one of the few that showed up to Tinkerbell and Queen Clarion to look where all the snow was coming from and at the end helped Tinkerbell and the 2 other Tinker fairies by destroying the snow making machine to the water but nope the freeze have started instead and were all scared with what to do to save the pixie dust tree (i can tell once they all found out where the snow was coming from, all of the girls that showed up wanted to help, including Vidia and once Tink called the girls for help, they all came in action without hesistate)

i can’t lie, this scene was the saddest, aside from Periwinkle, it was Vidia who reacted the worse, kind of feeling so extremely upset about Tink’s broken wing and teared up about it as she cares for Tinkerbell a LOT, she possibly don’t like when one of her friends are upset because she’d feel that sadness too (i’m sure it have something to do from the 3rd movie, the previous movie where Vidia had an important role by saving Tinkerbell but this time she couldn’t do something about it, judging by her face she have almost lost Tink and the thought of that happening again scared the crap out of her, she still feels so responsible when it involves Tink since it’s still often her that needs to watch out for her, i mean it’s kind of her duty to keep her safe since she knows Tinkerbell sometimes way TOO well)

Vidia is literally the only one who flew to Tinkerbell to remind her to take a break for once before Tinkerbell pass out infront of everyone from all the working, she shows it in the most funny way but deep down she was worried for her (it was kind of her ways by saying Tink should take a break from all that Tinkering and kind of helped her with the box)

all of the girls were having a shocked and a worried look from the puffies Rosetta had noticed

Vidia is definitely having that worried and a concerned look just like everyone else when they all watched everyone sleeping

Vidia was the only one who didn’t had nature skills so yeah it is expected Vidia had to take a look to others who couldn’t control their temporary talent, i mean she WALKED to iridessa when the plant grew and she along with Fawn had to be the one who had to help Rosetta to get rid from the bugs, even Vidia was wondering what was going on with everything and everyone

this scene is funny to be honest, some responded the best but Vidia responded the worse of them all and kind of got angry when Fawn maked fun of her (at the end it was her of all fairies who remained calm even when stuff DOES get out of hand)

Vidia was worried about Silvermist and was extremely concerned for her when Silvermist was sea-sick, Vidia act like a big sister to Silvermist and actually took it easy on her, i mean this was very serious and maybe was a little patient with Silvermist too (fun fact Vidia ACTS like Silvermist to me she was the calmest from the group in the pirate fairy movie)

and woah Vidia took a closer look and was in shock about Rosetta’s hair, i guess she also cares for others, NOT just Tinkerbell, she had a concerned look here

Vidia and Tinkerbell had to be the one who calmly had to tell iridessa to be quiet and NOT touch the trees at all

Vidia kind of had to be the one trying to calm Tinkerbell when she was frustrated (kind of having the “Tink i know this is frustrating but it’s no use trying to open it up, we need a better plan so calm down” look)

Vidia was frustrated just like the others when they couldn’t make a plan to get rid from the cage with also the time that was running out (iridessa and Rosetta got into a fight and instead of Tinkerbell or Silvermist, from all people it was Vidia herself who did the peacemaker before it escalated and was a mom out of the group)

Tinkerbell and Vidia sees Rosetta getting hit and both grew to be worried about Rosetta and were in shocked

she warned the others to not like get hit her head or to get captured from the pirates or something but she definitely alarmed everyone like this

yep everyone had concerned looks in hope they won’t regret this decisions (even for Tinkerbell)

the gangs gave Zarina a concerned and at the same time a confussing look when they find out what the crew is doing with the blue dust (at the end instead of Tinkerbell, it was Vidia this time who knew how to solve it, she probably said it as a payback since she and the others have forgave her)

all of the gangs had a caring look wondering why Zarina was just about to go in seperate ways again like she used to including Vidia

everyone got SO scared from the baby hawk especially Vidia

Vidia was one of the first with concern who asked Fawn what had happened to the Queen from doing the right thing (she did apologized if she had corrupted Fawn from hugging Gruff before she spoke any further)

all girls showed up to see the doctor or should i say healing talent fairy? to see if Tinkerbell was doing alright, seeing their unconsciouss friend

everyone were extremely worried for Fawn, even Vidia had her sensitive sides, seeing Fawn not taking cover

both Tinkerbell and Vidia catched Fawn to make sure she wasn’t hurt but all of them were kind of cautious about Gruff

all girls had their concerned looks, it looked like they all didn’t wanted Fawn to go through with the plan to save pixie hollow since it could risk her own life (ironic from Tinkerbell she often CAUSE troubles but now is the opposite of it though)

all of Fawn’s friends were worried sick about her, especially Tinkerbell and Vidia as they find it dangerous for Fawn with the Plan B she made to save pixie hollow, it includes Vidia with her worried look for Fawn

Vidia comforted Silvermist when Gruff almost reached the sky and remained calm compared to the rest of the group

once Silvermist spotted Fawn and Gruff trying to reach out for both Gruff AND Fawn, they flew to her when they all SEES her fell from a high sky (Silvermist and iridessa ended up holding Fawn instead of Tinkerbell and Vidia though)

all girls teared up about Fawn’s death or atleast when they all thought she was death from doing the right thing for pixie hollow

all girls including Vidia gave each other sad looks with the thought they all won’t see Gruff ever again once he wakes up

Vidia was one of the girls that teared up about Gruff going to sleep

you see what i mean now? she DOES have sensitive sides even though she tries to hide it but when one of her friends get hurt or even worse, she feels that too
