Summary
“Look, Wilbur," Technoblade started. "I don’t know what kind of situation you pulled Tommy out of and, frankly, it’s none of my business. But Tommy seems happy here. Don’t do yourself the disservice of thinking that has nothing to do with you.”
Wilbur didn’t say anything. He and Tommy were alike in that way: Doubt was built into their bones.
“I couldn’t do what you’re doing, Wilbur. Most people probably couldn’t.”
“They could.” Wilbur sounded so certain. “For Tommy, they could.”
“But have they?”
That question seemed to take Wilbur out at the knees. “They should have,” he said fiercely.
“They should have,” Technoblade agreed. “But a lot of people have let Tommy down.” He squeezed the nape of Wilbur’s neck and the kid leaned into it, his head falling towards Technoblade’s shoulder. “They’ve let you down too.”
Wilbur was quiet.
“Tommy didn’t deserve it. I think we can both agree on that." Technoblade’s voice was soft above Wilbur’s head. "Can we agree on something else too?”
Wilbur hummed unsteadily.
“You didn’t deserve it either.”
Or, Phil and Technoblade get new neighbors. No one's all right, but they're getting there.- Language:

Summary
“What does it say?” she asks. Techno is the exception in literacy rates. He blinks, letting the quote he’d been studying come into focus.
“Even the finest sword plunged into salt water will eventually rust,” Techno says hoarsely.
(or, the Dread Pirate Technoblade kidnaps a kid and then accidentally makes friends. He's not very good at this.)

Summary
“Empire,” the King’s Advisor repeats. His projected reflection shifts, and Wilbur rolls his eyes. “I stand before you today on the King’s behalf. I am to deliver a message.”
“Tell him to fuckin’ make it himself, then,” someone shouts, and the crowd murmurs. Wilbur hides his smile in the collar of his coat.
“I am to deliver a message,” the Advisor says again, looking down at the tablet in his hands. “’To the people of my land, I ask for your for help. Tomorrow afternoon, the Palace gates will open, and anyone with the capabilities I require for a quest of this magnitude will be invited in. I am calling upon all residents of the Empire, please – ‘“
Wilbur doesn’t even bother to hide his laugh. He shakes his head. I gave up an extra hour of sleep for this? he thinks, shouldering his way back through the crowd. Nobody gives him a second glance; half the people are already leaving. A mix of dejection and annoyance hangs in the air. Fucking tosspot. Piece of shit –
“ – citizens are chosen for the quest will be compensated heavily,’” the Advisor reads. Wilbur stops.
“You could do with the money,” Dream had said.
Chekhov, is all Wilbur thinks.

Summary
Wilbur is completely done with Phil. The man leaves him when he needs him the most, then shows up with some ancient prophecy like,
“Oh Wilbur. You’re a bad guy but you aren’t really and there’s still good inside you. I’m trapping you in this book until someone has the ability to tame you.”
Pfft. As if he can be tamed.
He honestly feels bad for the poor sap who got picked to be his tamer.
His eyes open to a clearing. A house in front of him and a forest behind.
He’s dealt with the whole chosen one thing. His father thinks he can change fate?
Fate decided to make him the villain. Fate decided he wins.
Now all he has to do is get rid of the supposed chosen one that’s supposed to tame his dark heart.
His eyes glance around. Spinning in a small circle.
His brows furrow.
Surely they must be right here right?
There’s a gasp from... below him?
His eyes slowly look down, and down, and down.
It’s a child.
Or, Wilbur is trapped in a book and Tommy frees him.
Or or, Wilbur says, “Ha. No one can tame me.”
And Tommy says, “It’s free brother.”If any CCs state they are uncomfortable with this kind of fic then I will take it down!

Summary
Wilbur hums, dazed eyes fluttering close, "The lab... it's spinning."
Fuck, that's not good. Normal, sure, but never good. Tommy rubs a thumb at his eye bags, soothing, gentle, the older leaning into the touch with a soft sigh. There's a shaky breath, a soft, trembling whistling that echoes the first few notes of the Walkürenritt. For not the first time, he thinks of when the apocalypse ends, of a time of peace. An epilogue with soft hands, an ending not with bloodshed. Him and his doctor, his doctor and him. Together, as it was intended.
"Ever think of retirement? Start up apiculture and all that, a tabula rasa." He questions, low and teasing, the wind whistling outside their tent. Somewhere in the distance, a coyote howls, a gunshot rings out, there is silence.
The older stifles a giggle, glove-clad hands grasping onto him tightly, "I'm not that old, you rascal. I think I'd rather kill you in your sleep than retire, bah."

Summary
Tommy had lived and died as Theseus, Icarus, Orpheus and Sisyphus. But all he wanted to be was free.
In which Tommy Soot, originally born in 1509, is cursed to be reborn, to never reach adulthood unless he figured out the Greek myth of his lifetime. He had one rule of not allowing himself to get attached to people but he would have never guessed that a foster family of the creator of Minecraft, an anime stan and a Soundcloud musician would break that rule.
~ SBI Foster AU but with Greek mythology.

Dream puts too much faith in Tommy when trying to punish him and ends up causing Tommy to go through endless cycles of pain. Oops.
Atleast Tommy can see his Batshit brother again. Ofc he's has no memory of him but details

Summary
All the stories warn against going into the woods, warn about creatures hiding there. They say there are lilting voices singing from the shadows, promising glittering daydreams with sharp teeth. They say the creatures there will take you far away to never be seen again.
There was a boy, the village whisperers, safely in the circle of light, glancing over their shoulders at the trees beyond it. There was a boy who strayed too far.
They say you can still hear his laughter as it’s carried on a breeze, bright and wild, like youth frozen in amber, like ghosts falling delicate from the branches.
(Strange things happen to boys who linger too long beyond the veil. Magic infects like a disease, like rot, eating away everything human that lingers, until his eyes are an unbroken summer sky blue and there are flowers in his hair and he sings with a voice that haunts the shadows.)
(Here is our story: A boy goes home.)

Summary
The fae was tall. Much taller than Tommy, and probably anyone else in the village for that matter. Hair the color of dark oak spilled over his forehead in tumbling curls. Flecks of gold dotted his cheeks like freckles, sitting underneath a pair of knowing eyes that seemed to flash between shades of earth and honey. His tall frame was draped in the most expensive-looking clothes Tommy had ever seen—flowing fabric in shades of snow and sunlight billowed in the light breeze. And there was so much jewelry. Gold bands decorated his arms, dangling gems decorated his pointed ears, and a shimmering gold circlet rested on his forehead.
Past the beauty though, there was danger. His nails were pointed, his teeth too sharp. When Tommy tried to look him in the eyes, his head grew fuzzy, as if perceiving the fae directly wasn’t something he was supposed to attempt.
He was smiling as he looked over Tommy.
“Are you lost?” He asked in that same lyrical voice.
or, Tommy gets adopted by the fae

Summary
"Let's start making it happen." As soon as those words fell out of Schlatt's mouth, a bright light nearly blinded everyone as well as the sound of a portal's unnatural hum.
When the light died down and everyone got their vision back, a portal, structured like a Nether Portal but built out of metal and stone, glowing silver, stood right between and before the stage and the audience. They were stunned as a figure came out of said portal, tall, decked out in full enchanted netherite. A man with a familiar mask but unfamiliar clothes stood.
"Where's Dream?" The man with the red hood, wearing Dream's mask immediately asked.
Before anyone could even react or answer, the portal behind him flared brightly and the man jumped away with an annoyed grunt as another man decked in netherite tumbled out of the silver glowing portal. Wild dark hair, dark blue eyes, burnt scars underneath his chin-
"Tubbo?" Tommy muttered in surprise, somehow recognizing him as his best friend.
"Tommy!" The older Tubbo screamed, but not at Tommy who stood beside Wilbur. But at the masked man with the red hood.
Two broken men stay in the past in hopes of a better future.

Summary
“If you go far into the forest, so far that you can’t see sunlight, you will never be found. Everything that is lost under the sun can be found again and returned home. It is always dark in the woods, and Tommy strayed further than he likely should have.
Why, then, did it feel like every step took him closer to home? The crunching leaves underneath his threadbare shoes coaxed him with each step to take another.”
———
Tommy is six years old when he runs from the orphanage, deep into the Forest. It is there, where he finds that he was never really human to begin with.

“The Angel of Death, the ferryman of the Styx, the terror of the western seas. One of the most feared captains ever to sail, and yet, I have to wonder… how did a man like you end up all on his own? We searched the area where you were found—not another soul in sight. So,” He fixes him with a long look, allowing the silence to hover like a dark cloud, the words rolling off of his tongue with all the venom and smugness he can muster, “—tell me, Philza. Where is your crew?”

OR: Technoblade is a naval captain, and Phil his unwilling prisoner. Somehow, they manage to come out of it as friends in the end.

Summary
Prince Theseus, a child of blonde and blue, a child of isolation and a crave for touch. He's the youngest in the Royal Family, and somehow the most forgotten. The most neglected. The most alone.
Tucked away in his tower, the young prince watches the world move on without him, watches his family welcome two new princes into their arms, and yet reject him when he cries desperately from nightmares or shivers from a painful wound.
"Wilby?" The child had murmured, all curious and hesitant at once. He was tucked in his older brother's lap, watching as his other sibling sparred with their father. "We'll always be together, right? Forever and ever?"
Wilbur smiled. "Of course, Tommy. Forever and ever."
The Hanahaki rising in young Theseus' throat says otherwise.
