Summary
Tommy was handed a small flyer in printed in black and white, with the words “POETRY NIGHT - OPEN MIC” splayed across the front in bubbled font. He fumbled with his binder as he took it, eyes wide as he said, “are you sure? I mean, I love poetry and all, but I don’t think-I’m not sure—what if I can’t write poetry?”
Mr. Sam’s dark eyes softened, and he reached out to place a hand on Tommy’s shoulder, squeezing it gently. “Everyone has to start somewhere; every poet, from me to Rudy Francisco, started off without knowing a clue about what we were doing. Tommy, it’s not about if you can or cannot write poetry, it’s about if you want to.”

"It's getting there," Tommy continues, sob caught in his throat.
"Getting where, Toms?" Wilbur asks. He feels like he’s missed the middle part- he missed the journey between point A and point B. How did they get here?
There's a beat.
"Getting to be too much."

Summary
“You know we love you, Tommy?”
Tommy tensed and his eyes cautiously flickered up to meet Wilbur’s warm gaze. His first instinct was to nod and reciprocate the verbal affection, though something inside him —something insecure that had been broken far too many times over— seized up in his gut and made his lungs contract unnaturally. He stared up at Wil and the acknowledgement died on his tongue.
It caught Tommy off guard when something he couldn’t quite place faltered in Wilbur’s expression. His smile looked misplaced beneath the shock that flashed in his eyes and the blonde wondered how on earth this man could look at Tommy and still have something to smile about.
Wilbur studied his little brother for a moment before he hummed softly and leaned down to press a lingering kiss to the crown of Tommy’s head. “We love you.”

OR, Wilbur takes Tommy back to his place after a concerning phone call, and though the bruises littering his skin speak for themselves, there's something Tommy isn't telling Wilbur; something he would rather die than tell anyone.

Summary
Tommy lays in bed, his chest and core sore as he rests his hands over his heart and stomach as he runs over his deep breathing exercises for what seems like the one millionth time that week.
In for four, hold, out for four, hold, repeat.
In for four, hold for seven, out for eight, repeat.
But even with the tens of different breathing patterns, dozens of calming guided-breathing gifs, cute animal pictures, and cozy games he has, the weight on his chest won’t leave. It’s a dark thing, twisting over his form and gripping tight. It’s not always suffocating, sometimes it is, but throughout the day it’s just constant pressure. A dark cloud weighing him down, a little worm churning up all of his darkest worries.
...
Tommy knows he has people in his corner, and he wants, he so desperately wants them to help, he just can’t find it in himself to reach out.or
Tommy struggles with severe anxiety and suddenly spirals. Thankfully Wilbur is here to help.

Summary
While he tried to do the mental math, he was distracted enough to not pay attention to where he was going. Tommy tripped, falling over another pallet truck and into the pallets stacked on top of it. He blinked himself back into focus, barely noticing the way his knee and elbow ached. He… was stuck. He’d gotten entangled with the mass of empty pallets and metal parts and quickly found out he was unable to move. His ankle was caught under the truck he was pulling and his body was weighed down by the pallets that had tumbled off of it and onto him. His vision was still swimming, and he felt a familiar sense of panic set in. He knew someone heard that. Now they were going to come over here and see him like this and then they would know something was wrong-
“Tommy? You alright?” Wilbur’s voice called.

Summary
But Wilbur is a ball and chain in the middle of the sea, slowly but steadily dragging himself down to the ocean floor with Tommy unknowingly trapped inside his cuff. It’s unfair that Tommy has had to drown with Wilbur for so many years, desperately trying to swim both of them back to the surface. It’s fruitless, and Tommy wonders sometimes if it would be better to just cut the chain that binds them together. To let Wilbur sink on his own, while Tommy heads for air.
He could never do that though; as much as he wants to. He’ll let Wilbur sink them both, and Tommy will swim and thrash as the surface grows more and more distant. Hoping and wishing for a lifeboat. For someone to help them to shore, and to pull Tommy’s freezing body into their warm, loving arms and drape a towel over his wet shoulders.
He thinks Phil might be that person, Techno too. Tommy wants to let them be and he wishes for Wilbur to want that too.
OR: Wilbur and Tommy are brothers in the foster system. Wilbur is struggling with addiction, Tommy is always left to pick up the pieces. But now with Techno and Phil here, hopefully they’ll be able to help. (Only Wilbur does not want help.)
