Summary
“Just hang on, Theseus.” Tubbo’s hands shook as he hung from the window, slowly inching his way down. The bracelet jangled against his skin, catching on some of the ties. “I’m on my way!” Tubbo hit the grass, softly, with the tips of his feet.
Technoblade had showed him how to fall silently, the same blank expression as his hand had waved. It had trembled and Tubbo had pretended not to notice. If Tubbo had anything to say about it, Technoblade would never be sad about Theseus again.
Tubbo set off into the woods, backpack bobbing. He needed to get some serious ground in before the sun rose, or he’d get dragged right back.
He took a sharp, cold breath. For Theseus, Tubbo could do anything.
---
Theseus was the son of the god Phil and the youngest brother of godly twins Technoblade and Wilbur. Ten years ago, he vanished without a trace. Bonded from their friendship, Tubbo always insisted Theseus was alive, even with no other proof than his own surety.
One night, Tubbo escapes from his godly family. Without Theseus, he can't come into his godly powers. He wants his friend back, and sets off into the night, following the compass left in his chest.

Summary
"That was Floaty. Or at least, that's what I'm calling him. Fucking kid won't tell us his name," Dream carried on like nothing had happened, and from beside Techno, Wilbur started wheezing like he was dying. "I think he's twelve or thirteen. Wind magic, he's quick and real snarky, very malnourished, blind-"
"Wait, blind?" Techno peered harder at the communicator. Wilbur stopped laughing. "How the hell is he able to slip by you then?"
"Uses the air currents like feelers, I think," Dream's breath was coming heavier as he carried on running. "Gets an idea of where things are in relation to him. He doesn't always get it right, sometimes there are cracks in things big enough to feel like an escape route and he slams into a wall. Or he doesn't angle close enough to the ground and trips on things. He's uh-" Dream flipped the communicator around, and Techno blinked as Bad flew through the air, screeching the whole way. "He's slippery."
---
TLDR: Blindinnit has wind magic and gets himself adopted by the Antarctic Empire's royal family.

Summary
Tommy has always been the fighter.
He has never been the fought for, and he knows it, with every whisper Tubbo directs at Ranboo, with every glance thrown his way- Tommy knows, the way he wishes he didn't, that they think he's dead.
If they're so convinced he's still dead, maybe the one good thing left he can do for them is die.
---
Or, Tommy gets addicted to being dead and thinks that nobody cares about him. The people who very much do try to pull him back from the brink before Dream can't resurrect him anymore.

Summary
It's always been Tommy and Wilbur, even when every sentient magical creature - seemingly, each one in this entire country - was out for Tommy's head. Even when Wilbur was nearly killed by a rampaging chimera, injured enough that a passing Technoblade saved his life by turning him into a vampire, it was still just Wilbur and Tommy.
Until it isn't anymore.

Summary
Wilbur likes the place he's chosen to Turn his baby Changeling in. It's a shame that the rest of his coven had to find out about it before he could get in his Tommy Cuddle Quota, but the bed is big enough for four.

TLDR: it's just very soft.

Summary
Theseus gave a little… calling chirp noise and Techno responded with his own rumble, possessiveness having his glamour flicker wildly again.
"And-" Theseus' voice was rough, dry. Young. Techno ran a hand through his hair, electricity buzzing through his fingers as the simple spell fried the bugs caught in Theseus' curls. With a quick twist of Techno's fingers, the bugs died, and Techno busied himself with ruffling his hatchling's hair. "And you won't leave? You won't- you won't die?"
"I am a dragon, Theseus," Techno's hatchling ruffled his feathers happily at his name. "I would like to see them try."

Summary
A loud caw broke through the quiet hallways, the shuffling of students to their next class freezing entirely as heads snapped up. Wilbur turned and grinned, the two earrings along his left ear swinging wildly with the spin. No matter how many times he got to see this, he never quite got used to it.
Familiars were usually plain animals- not sentient, without human forms, and with no magical properties of their own. Unlike Phil, who was lucky on only the first two counts, Wilbur had been blessed by all three. And when Tommy fucked his landing, and in a panicked squack and a burst of fire that couldn’t burn Wilbur even if the little phoenix tried, Wilbur was there to catch him.

Charting Neptune by the fire of the sun...
---
His core shudders again, harder; faster. He gets the impression she's smiling again, even if he's spinning and spiraling, getting dizzier with every second. The warmth that was present in this new body has increased into something burning, turned into painful heat.
"And you," his outer edges flash once; twice, lighting up her veil and sending the souls scattering across it into stillness with a breathless hush. "Born from the seventh star of Corona Borealis."
The pressure builds and builds and builds. He doesn't think he can take much more of it. His core will collapse.
"Go, Theseus," his vision whites out as his core shrinks under the pressure. "Find our family." It explodes outwards, into millions of tiny little pieces, and his vision goes white. Death closes her hands around him, gathering the stunned, fractured bits of him into one place, and he knows no more.

Summary
"He's created a time loop," Ranboo admits. Philza goes silent, goes still, and both their eyes are fixed on the figure on top of the stage, at the body cradled in his arms. There's magic swirling around him, the kind of desperation that comes from willing to do anything but failing anyway. "He's killed everyone in the surrounding area for at least 200 kilometres. They were a pack of two- and his two is gone. He's alone." Ranboo forces his way forward, but the clocks are ticking backwards, and every step feels harder. "He's trying to save his friend."
Tommy buries his head into Tubbo's jacket and screams. Tubbo's life runs out, again, because Tommy's power isn't enough to send them back for more than fifteen minutes. It isn't enough to undo the sickness, isn't enough time at all. Ranboo thinks he knows and just doesn't care.
The clocks tick backwards and Ranboo is blown backwards, away from the stage. Golden eyes open, threads attach, and the clocks spiral to fifteen minutes before this all happened.

SBI are cryptids and Ranboo's a Hunter sent to kill them. A baby one finally Awakens, and it sets in motion things that Ranboo couldn't have stopped even if he wanted to.

Summary
"How are you so dirty?" Tubbo groaned, checking his shirt. Wilbur would have winced at the state of it if he wasn't so damn amused.
"Well, I did get thrown onto the roof earlier. Rolled a bit," Tommy twisted around and Tubbo hissed at the rough scab on Tommy's elbow. "Is my elbow still bleeding? Also, hi Wilbur. I'm Tommy."
"Yes," Wilbur's cheeks hurt from how wide he was smiling. He should have never doubted Tubbo- Techno spoke to Dream a lot, even though they were rivals. This Tommy was everything he and Techno wanted. Wild, bright, a splotch of colour in the dreariness of their lives. Something they could protect. "You are."
---
Tommy's able to steal other people's powers. His parents don't want him, his school doesn't want him, even his best friend Tubbo has to sneak around just to see him. Nobody wants him, and that's fine- it's fine. He's fine.
And then he meets Wilbur.

Summary
but he is made of flesh. and he burns.
---“When was the last time your parents made you feel worthless?” his psychologist asks.
Tommy’s pulls out a record of every time it’s happened. Every time he got hit, every time they threatened him, every time he felt like jumping off his fifteen-story balcony remembering something they said. It’s been a long time since he’s started keeping track.
“You were building a case to take them to court.” she realises, eyebrows raised.
“They weren’t going to get to kill me,” he says. He looks up. He has his father’s temper. He always has. He’s always simmering under a poker face he learned at his mother’s feet. “I was ready to take them down first. No matter what it took.”

The second installment of four poster bed.
--
Tommy thrust his arms out, grinning. "Sunscreen me up, big man!" he shrieked. Ohhhh he liked this room, it smelled like Wilbur and Phil and Techno and it was safe and fuzzy, but man. Tommy wanted out. At least for a little bit.
Techno took his time, wrapping Tommy up in this sunscreen that smelled a lot like Techno's weirdass body soap. Through the whole process, the older vampire was purring, his chest rumbling softly as he got sunscreen on Tommy's ears, his cheeks, his nose. The hat was a giant sunhat with a dark wrap-around veil, and Techno brushed the veil aside to put the sunglasses over Tommy’s eyes.
“This is a…” well, Tommy was about to say a bit much, but Techno fixed him with a glare so withering that Tommy immediately shut his mouth. “...fun hat. Super pog. So great. This hat gets all the bitc-”
“That’s enough of that,” Techno sighed, a fond grin pulling at his lips.

Summary
Fire spells were simple, labels and methodology for putting out fires, for dispersing the energy, for summoning enough light to see. He held a lick of flame just above his palm and stared into the molten gold surface, watching it dance over his fingers. It was beautiful-- casting pretty shadows over his curtains. The air rippled at his flame and Tommy poured more into it, watching it grow until the light reflected in his eyes. There was energy in it, in this, and the flame spluttered out another spark.
It landed on his skin and Tommy watched it turn from fire, to lava, to molten rock when it dropped on the floor.
He extinguished the flames, his eyesight adjusting to the grey-black hues of darkness once again. Maybe.

Fire magic is uncontrolled, dangerous, unpredictable. Tommy finds a way past it, and finds a family among the Academy's walls.

Summary
“What happened yesterday wasn’t an accident, Techno,” Phil snarled through the phone. He jolted away from the speaker. The man had always seemed so… calm. “There are things that haunt this mortuary you don’t understand, and right now, they’re coming for you.”
“...right.” Wilbur waved from the door and Techno pushed his glasses up with his middle finger. “As nice as it’s been working for you, Mr. Craft, I uhh- I quit. I’ll leave my badge on the desk and you can tell Wilbur to-”
“No! You can’t leave! I can’t let that happen, Techno, you don’t understand.” Phil sounded stressed. Footsteps started coming out from the speakers. “Yesterday, didn’t you see something? Something you didn’t understand?”
“...I was tired.”
“You’re being possessed,” Phil’s voice was breathy, hoarse. “It happened to me, and-- and I can’t let it happen to anyone else. Please, Techno. If you leave now, you’ll die.”

Summary
The prince is looking right at him.
“Please, Techno.” he says. There are tears dropping down his face, getting blown off his cheeks by the force of the wind. “Don’t keep me waiting too long, alright?”
The prince glows, brighter than any star Techno’s ever seen. It’s the same glow from earlier- the one that blinded him. The one that caged the darkness. Techno knows it won’t last forever.
His vision goes white as the kid erupts like a supernova, trapping a beast that he had no business fighting in the first place.
He’s too young.
He’s-
“-stop being a bitch and just WAKE UP!”

Techno opens his eyes and immediately chokes on water.

Techno wakes up in a ruined world, 100 years in the future and with no memory of his past. He's been resurrected by an ancient shrine, tasked with saving the kid who haunts his nightmares, the one who everyone said was a brother to him. He doesn't have much time-- Tommy gets weaker with every day and XD's rot only grows.
He really thinks he should be paid more for this. He's just saying-- he deserves a raise.

--
Tommy explained his plan in a hushed voice and Tubbo had giggled before grabbing all his friends. Ranboo and the other servants wouldn't be able to watch Tommy if they were all distracted by the chandelier falling or plates flying or explosions in the oven, so Tommy would be in the clear. At least for a bit.
Tubbo flew out of his room. There were a few pauses before a pop went off and one of the cooks started screaming. The servants standing guard at the nest door went down towards the kitchen, until Tommy heard Ranboo’s distinct screech from the library. As soon as the shattering glass noises started, Tommy stripped off all his jewelry, donning a commoner's cloak and tunic he'd made Tubbo bring him. His pants were still silky and too colourful to really blend in as a peasant, but he should be fine, right? Yeah. He’d be fine.
