Summary
L’Manberg was gone. Tommy had nothing left. He lost his relationship with Technoblade. Wilbur was dead, Phil viewed him as a traitor. Tubbo and him were strained, to say the least.
And he’s tired. God, he’s so tired, and all he wants to do is rest, finally be free of all the burdens he carried constantly.
The weight of the world is a lot to put on a 16-year-olds shoulders.

Or : Technoblade stumbles upon Tommy in the Nether, ready to take his last life within the lava. He manages to save him, and swears to make things right with his family. He would protect his baby brother - he was going to fix this. -

Summary
When Wilbur disappears from the darkened streets of their sleepy seaside college town, Tommy makes it his mission to find his best friend. There's just one problem—it looks like Wilbur's been Taken by the fey, and neither the town nor the Fair Folk take kindly to any kind of searching.
Things start to go wrong very quickly, starting, among other things, with a body beneath the belltower.
(or, faeries have rules, but tommy's never been one to follow them, is the thing.)

Summary
“I should go,” Tommy murmurs. He’s fidgeting with something on his wrist that Wilbur can’t see. “I should go.”
It sounds less like he wants to, and more like he’s trying to convince himself that he has to.
“You could,” Wilbur says. He tries to sound indifferent. “But it’s not like I’m gonna kick you out or anything if you want to stay.”
Tommy looks at him. His eyes are blue, bright blue, a blue brighter than the sky when the sun beams down at noon. “I can stay?” He’s quiet, and hesitant, and that hurts more than the words themselves.
Or: A kid keeps showing up at Wilbur's cafe. Against his better judgement, Wilbur gets attached.

Summary
Tommy turns back to face Wilbur, and as he stands in the shadow cast by an impossibly tall tower, painted in hues of the day’s last dying light, Wilbur feels the pieces begin to fall into place.
“Tommy,” he says, despairing and desperate, “what was this tower for, Tommy?”
(or, a kinder universe where crimeboys stay and talk and breathe.)

Summary
Things are almost good for a little while. There is something like safety, like healing settling over the little cabin in the snow.
It feels a little bit like coming home, Tommy thinks, but he doesn’t say it out loud. It scares him sometimes, this vulnerability, this stability that could be torn out from under his feet at any moment. Trust is something he has felt like a knife in his back over and over. Trust is falling again and again even though there’s never anyone there to catch him before he hits the ground. Trust is broken bones and split lips, trust is spitting out blood and using his tongue to check for loose teeth.
And yet, and yet, when the same hands that curled into fists once before extend as open palmed offerings, he still takes them. Dream called him stupid, helpless, naive. Dream was right, Tommy knows, but Dream smelled like gunpowder and a bitter kind of smoke.
The smoke here is sweet and Tommy has never been one to learn from his mistakes.
Tommy had been Theseus for a little while. Tommy had been Icarus, Atlas, Prometheus.
But before all of that, he had been Tommy. Maybe there was a place for him to be again, now, in the after.
