o3o May I request c!Tommy x protective!reader who uses she/they pronouns? (Platonic, please!)
Reader arrives at the same time as Eryn and finds out how badly Tommy has been treated for the past few years, decides that she's going to make sure he doesn't have to go through that again. - 🍜
My first C!Tommy writing! You'll have to tell me if it's horrible and if I should give up on writing C!Tommy :D I did some digging on the timeline and Eryn joined before Dream's escape, so keep that in mind.
Pairing: C!Tommy x She/They!Reader (platonic)
Just a Kid
Tumblr media
Most people told you to leave Tommy alone.
You had seen him around a few times, building random towers and collecting materials. He never seemed very happy about whatever he was doing though.
Before joining, you had only heard rumors about everyone. Technoblade, the ruthless warrior. Philza, the man who survived hardcore and earned wings. Tommyinnit, the kid who was so full of energy that it was infectious. If those rumors were true, then Tommy had changed. Gone was a kid full of energy, replaced by an empty shell of a person.
In a way, it was scarier than anything you've ever seen. What makes a person look like that? He would check over his shoulder, a white-knuckled grip on his sword. Always gripping a sword. His clothes were constantly dirty, and his eyes were practically gray. Under his eyes were eyebags that were miles deep, a dark purple against his pale skin tone.
"What happened to Tommy?" You decide to ask Ranboo. Although Ranboo didn't seem to remember much, he was always willing to help.
"Tommy? He's... he's changed. I think. There was this stuff with Dream? Sorry, I- you might want to ask someone else."
Dream. That was a name you knew hardly anything about. The very owner of the server, missing from it. Someone had told you that he was in prison, but that didn't make sense. How did the owner of the server end up in jail?
Eret was the next person you ask. He seemed pretty levelheaded, so he had to have some answers.
"What happened before I joined? With Tommy and Dream and all that?"
He pauses in his building to turn his head towards you. His glasses are too dark for you to see past, but you assume he's looking at you.
"It's a long story. Tommy and Wilbur tried to create a nation called L'manberg and Dream didn't like that. There was a war. Tommy ended up losing in a duel, losing the war. But Dream still gave L'manberg their freedom. There was an election, Wilbur and Tommy lost which turned L'manberg into Manberg. There was another war."
"A lot of war." You huff.
Eret smiles. "There is. Tommy lost a cow and started a war somewhere in there I think. But he didn't lose the war against Manberg. Instead, Tubbo became president. Tommy got exiled. Nobody really knows what happened to him, but he came back... different. Changed."
"Nobody?" You push. That didn't seem right.
"Nobody apart from Dream and Ghostbur. But Ghostbur is long dead, and Dream's in prison. Anyways, there was a war in which L'manberg was destroyed. Completely. They tried to rebuild it a little. Wilbur died and got revived, it's... it's a long story. Complicated. But Tommy died too and got revived after getting stuck in the prison."
"Holy shit." You wouldn't want to get stuck in that prison. Just looking at it was scary enough.
"Kid's been through a lot. Lost a lot. Seen a lot. We all have."
"Like him?"
Eret's look turns more thoughtful. "Not like him. Not as much as he has."
Right then. It was decided. Nobody was going to hurt Tommy ever again. Grief and loss were something you were familiar with, but he was just a kid. A kid with a haunted look in his eyes, an exile nobody knew anything about.
"Thank you."
"Of course. I'm making a history museum, after all." As you leave, you can hear him talking to himself. "She's digging up skeletons meant to be buried."
If skeletons were meant to be buried, then why were two revived people walking around on the server? You might not know much but messing with life and death sure couldn't be good. If you were here, you might as well try your best and bring some peace to the server.
So, you go against the advice given to you. You talk to Tommy.
“Hey! Tommy, right? What’re you doing?”
He doesn’t trust you, but he has no reason to. With a suspicious look he angles himself away from you but still responds. That’s something, right?
“Getting supplies.”
“I can help! What are we gathering?”
“I don’t need help.”
“I didn’t say you needed anyones help. I’m just offering.” Your grin never wavers. “Bored and willing to help out.”
“…wood.” He reluctantly answers. “To rebuild my house. Oak wood.”
“Great!” You grab out your netherite axe, only to spin it around and offer Tommy the handle. His axe was iron and you had a diamond one you could use. “Here, I’ll use my spare diamond one.”
His face twists, and you realize your mistake. The gift could be seen as pity. Sure, you might be becoming protective over Tommy but it wasn’t out of pity.
“It’ll be faster.” You add on.
He takes it slowly, but takes it nonetheless. Progress.
Your next move is to talk to Jack Manifold. The guy seemed a little odd but not too bad. No matter what your personal opinion of him was though, you had seen the billboard. The hotel. Big Manifold’s Hotel sign was very obviously painted over Big Innit’s Hotel.
“Speak of the devil! There they are!” Jack calls out to you, waving. He was talking with Niki, another member you need to talk to. Two bats with one arrow, right?
“Jack! Niki!” You exclaim. “Just the people I was looking for!”
“What can we help you with?” Jack asks, smiling. Unlike Eret his glasses were see-through.
“I was actually wondering about your hotel. It used to be Tommy’s, right?”
“Oh, yeah. But then he died so it went to me.” He shrugs, seeming unconcerned by it. There’s just one little flaw in his logic.
“But Tommy’s alive.”
“Listen, you joined at a really nice time. Tommy’s chilled out and it’s better this way. Just leave things be.” Niki suggests.
“He’s chilled out because he fucking died! He’s a kid!” You exclaim.
“You don’t get it, he terrorized the server! It’s better off this way. He deserved everything that happened to him.”
You stare at Niki, jaw dropped. She couldn’t be serious, could she?
“You’re- maybe I’m wrong here, but he’s been through multiple wars. He’s died. He’s seen his country blown apart. He was exiled. And he’s still a kid. You’re telling me he deserved all that?”
“He brought it upon himself.” Niki answers.
“Heh, maybe we should just calm down?” Jack suggests.
“I’m calm.” You break eye contact with Niki to look between the duo. “Honestly, the hotel is none of my business. I just wanted to warn you both to leave Tommy alone. You might be okay with what’s been going on, but I’m not. In my books you’re both just as bad as Dream.”
Rumors on the server often turned out to be correct, as you were quickly learning. But now they've been dealt with. You weren't going to let anything else happen to Tommy even if it took all three of your lives, you swear by it.
There was one last person you had to threaten, but he happened to be unreachable. The very man who perhaps hurt Tommy the most. Dream.
As it turns out, Pandora was pretty good at keeping people both in and out. No matter how many times you begged Sam, he never let you in. Always claiming it was a liability, especially after how Tommy got stuck in there, which led to a whole new conversation.
"How the fuck do you lock a child in with a monster? He died, didn't he?" You ask, already furious at Sam's constant denial of letting you visit Dream.
"It was an accident. He signed a waiver-" "HE DIED! Aren't you meant to protect people? Isn't that what being the Warden is all about?"
Sam's expression crumples, and you suddenly realize you might be yelling at the wrong person here. So far you seemed to be the only one actively helping Tommy, but that didn't mean he was alone. Maybe there were people still in his corner, people who just fucked up a little. (or, in this case, a lot)
"Threaten Dream for me, would you?" You ask, backing off. "I think we can both agree that we'd kill him if he ever hurt Tommy again."
"Yeah." Sam nods. "That I can do."
With a smile, you set off a friend richer.
Tommy did still have people out there who cared for him, he just didn't know it. Maybe one day he'd see that, but only after a shit ton of healing.
For now, all you could do was give him a safe place and get him in some goddamn therapy.

Hi! It's been a while since I've submitted anything but here I am, with a new idea.
A time loop AU.
The world of dsmp is a one giant loop tak "resets" every few thousands years, when new people finally forget about the past.
In this AU, three people from dsmp are immortal and become someone else.
Tommyinnit, after being revived, becomes immortal. He can't really die, and he sees as everything and everyone around him turn to dust so he takes adult Michael amd leaves to see the world. During their travel, they part ways and Tommy ends up in a hardcore world where he gets a pair of black wings. He also takes a new name, Philza Minecraft . His original name now awkward and unfamiliar. He falls in love and has a son, who he names Wilbur. Later Wilbur Soot.
Michael_Beloved lives with his dads until they die of old age and then leaves with Tommy. Before that he trained under Technoblade and gets his crown after Techno crumbles to dust. Michael becomes a well known pvper, winning more and more, looking for more ways to test himself. He starts hearing voices. Voices that feed of his bloody victories, always wanting more and more. He learns how to ignore them. People start whispering. The call him "The Blood God Technoblade" and he became too awkward to correct them. Techno forgets his name and who he was. He and Tommy, meet again and start an empire, then leave and live, knowing that time has no effect on them. Techno meets Philza's kid, Wilbur. Years later he would answer a latter, full of fear, anger and feeling of betrayal and do what he knows best, destroy a corrupted government.
Foolish Junior leaves last. He buries his father, grandfather, aunt and little sister and leaves. He learns about architecture, about beauty and destruction. He becomes a god, like his father once was. He meets a nice guy and they have fun. They part and when Foolish sees Eret again, they don't remember him, and her eyes are sad.
One way or another, all three of them see Dream SMP again. But they don't remember it.
Philza doesn't remember the way he gave up his lives and most treasured possessions for L'manberg's independence. Tubbo is a stranger, not his brother in everything but blood. He only sees a corrupted place that destroyed his son and hurt his best friend. He destroys it and doesn't care.
Technoblade sees a government that needs to be destroyed. He doesn't remember his father and takes his life, leaving him with horrible scars. He destroys a place that was his father and uncle's pride, feeling victorious, not guilty.
Foolish tries to live normally but can't. Every time he thinks things are good, someone comes and destroys it. It leaves him empty.
(This AU came out of nowhere but I've felt like I needed to share it!
This is a Incredible Concept!
Maybe we have a Loop where they Remember.
Imagine Phil!Tommy Just Hating What he Became.
And Techno!Micheal is Trying to Help his Parents and his Younger Self. He Need to Protect his Sonder.
Wait Didn't Boo Die? No that Won't Happen again
He Fails
Jr Has no True grievances. Well All but Eret and his Sacrifice for him. He will Never Regret that.
What should this Au be Called?

I'm sorry that this brings a lot of negativity, but I just want to discuss a bit.
Since you've been around since the early days, I just wanted to check if there was a cult of personality in the early L'Manburg days. Mainly because I came across this take while editing TV Tropes (the editor claimed to be “correcting” information and added it) and from what they have said, they sound like an apologist for the sad green man.
They also claimed that c!Dream only started cutting off his attachments AFTER the Spirit incident (before Exile).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I want to know your thoughts on this take, because I think I'm about to cry over how stupid this sounds.
Going to rip this apart one second.
This person says L'Manberg was formed on the basis of "making a drug empire" using "materials that Wilbur and Tommy stole or manipulated other SMP members into giving" and oh boy.
1. Wilbur and Tommy stole a few brewing stands and some potions from Tubbo's base, which wasn't Right, but it also.. wasnt as bad as it sounds? The only person they really tried taking blaze rods from was again, Tubbo - but Sapnap took the blaze rods before they could - and then later, Tubbo gave the whole stack of blaze rods willingly to help Wilbur and Tommy. No other SMP members were affected other than Tubbo who chose to join their side. The only people they tried "manipulating into giving items" were Sapnap and Tubbo. Tubbo who later decided to work with them, Sapnap who refused and didnt have any items taken from him. Fundy later joined because he literally said he wanted to brew drugs. Eret decided to help Wilbur and Tommy for fun.
2. "L'Manberg was founded on the basis of creating a drug empire" god is this a tiring take. Yes, there was a "drug van" that held.. normal Minecraft potions. The drugs were a bit. Nobody ever acted high off their ass on drugs. Also L'Manberg was Not the drug empire. The drug empire is the failed thing they attempted before this, and the.. violent reaction to the drug empire sparked the L'Manberg revolution. Sapnap had repeatedly been referred to as the "police" and Wilbur even had Fundy say "fuck 12" and he was called a "pig eating pig". Sapnap killed Tommy, and later Purpled went on a killing spree, killing Fundy, Eret, Wilbur, and tried to kill Tommy and Tubbo. Wilbur's idea of a Safe Independent Nation was a response to the violence, not because he wanted to make drugs. Literally after L'Manberg got its independence I vividly remember Wilbur telling Tommy to stop talking about drugs bc he just wants a Hamilton roleplay lmao. Wilbur and Tommy never tried the drug thing after this, L'Manberg's focus has never been selling or creating drugs.
3. Yes they banned Americans from joining L'Manberg. It was funny. But there's this weird idea that "oh nobody could enter-" they could! People entered L'Manberg all the time, nobody could enforce the whole "keep non-L'Manbergians out" thing. Quackity trespassed on his first day. One time Sapnap threw a tantrum bc Tommy wouldnt kick Fundy out and went into L'Manberg to shoot at the salmon in the river. There's a whole stream with Niki hanging out with Punz, Ponk, Eret and Karl.. on L'Manberg's grounds. L'Manberg had a "no armor, no weapons" rule, so if anyone were to enter L'Manberg they'd take their armor off and keep their weapons away. Surprisingly enough this one was followed.
4. The idea that Dream was "in the right" during the first L'Manberg war. Why does there have to be a "right"? I dont think L'Manberg side was morally great, but that doesnt make Dream the one in the right. Even if it was "his land", even if he had a right to be mad... he focused on Tommy over the person who actually made L'Manberg, he destroyed Tommy's base twice, he burnt down Tubbo's base, he destroyed Tommy's cuck shed, he and his friends stole 10 hours worth of grinded items from Tubbo ONE DAY before the war, and then again stole the items he'd prepared the MORNING of the war. He then appointed a spy and took 4 canon lives. May I bring to attention that he did all this to enemies to repeatedly said theyd fight with words, not weapons, who refused to grief back. Dream was "viewed as a bad guy" because he destroyed things and killed people. He KNEW L'Manberg was harmless, he literally called them "The Land of Pussies" half an hour before declaring war and then burying Tommy and Tubbo in a hole to steal their items for fun. He knew damn well there was no chance of L'Manberg ever winning and he refused to let them have a chance at getting good items. Even if he felt villainised by L'Manberg, the "propaganda" turned nobody against him that didnt already have a bad experience with him, and the rest of the server was FINE with him until he hurt them directly.
5. "He has been known to do good" where
6. Tommy threatening Dream with Spirit is a scene that makes me see Red when people talk about it. Tommy was being humiliated for what was essentially the crime of.. burning a roof and building a netherrack penis. Dream responded by building huge obsidian walls and threatening war, instantaneously taking it too far. Everything was being blamed on Tommy, you could clearly see him panicking, Dream was taunting him, sending him whispers of "enjoy your probation" and ":)", knowing damn well he'll make Tommy snap. Tommy threatened Dream with Spirit to try to get him to take the walls down, to try to get him to stop. He did what Dream had done to him multiple times, use an attachment against him. I hate the idea of "this is the moment Dream gave up his attachments" because it blames everything on Tommy once again. People frame this as a malicious act from Tommy against Dream but it was a scared kid doing a last desperate move to try to get the person who was threatening to build walls up to build height and slaughter anyone outside them who was also trying to exile him from his nation to stop and leave him alone. George's house was an excuse, there has been no rule against messing with the DSMP king, no rules were added or changed. Tommy is not to blame for Dream willingly giving up his attachments, and the Spirit thing was a dumb move at best but never a malicious one done intentionally to hurt Dream. I hate the idea that Tommy "deserved exile" for "not listening" and letting Dream walk all over him and punish him in a severe way for something literally nobody else has been punished for.

could you transcribe tommy's doomsday vod? sorry for asking and no pressure of course, but i saw you were open to requests
Hello! Thank you for the request, it is done!
Today is L'Manberg's birthday and its first anniversary. but it's also the day I finished transcribing tommy's doomsday vod - so let's all be sad today :)
Underneath the cut is the entirety of Tommy's Doomsday VOD "Tommy's Dream SMP is Obliterated by Technoblade" (1.14.25).
Conversations may have been cut in half if they make jokes, but I've included every single lore-related line that I could hear (there was a lot of TNT and shouting over each other sorry)
(If anyone has their own requests, feel free to send them in)
Without further ado and I hope it's useful to you:
Tommy's Dream SMP Is Obliterated by Technoblade
00:47
TOMMY: So, there’s things I need to do. How long do we have now? 40 minutes. Oh, there we go. I’ve got something I need to do. I’ve got a couple of solo things that we’d needed to do for a long time. And I want to- ehm, we’ve got to speak to Tubbo because if we’re gonna do this war, morally, we can’t do it alone.
TOMMY messages TUBBO
TOMMY, whispering: vc
TOMMY: I know, they’re coming at 8pm, alright?
TUBBO messages TOMMY
TUBBO, whispering: okay
TOMMY: So what we’ve gotta do- you know what, chat? I fucked up, I did, I did over these past few weeks. I’ve been in exile, it’s been the worst weeks of my entire life, but I don’t wanna think about anything other… we’ve gotta say sorry.
TOMMY messages TUBBO
TOMMY, whispering: meet at our spot
TOMMY: And I know that’s not the most TommyInnit-y thing to do off the bat, but I haven’t been doing the most TommyInnit-y things to do.
TUBBO: I see you.
TOMMY: But I will do now.
TUBBO: Hello?
TOMMY: Hey.
TUBBO: Hey.
TOMMY: Hey, ehm, you wanna sit down on the eh-
TUBBO: I would quite like to sit down on the bench.
TOMMY: It’s been- you’re well dressed.
TUBBO: Thank you, you’re looking good yourself.
TOMMY: Eh, it’s been eh- listen. Listen - oh you’ve taken it off - I know it’s been a, mhm, I know it’s been quite some time… I’m sorry. I know, I know the exile- I know you had to exile me, like I’m sorry-
TUBBO: I’m sorry also. We could have tried other routes, it was a bit of an extreme turn.
TOMMY: I just don’t want everything that happens now to be built on - stay here - to be built on the past. You know, I don’t…
TUBBO: Yeah
TOMMY: Tubbo, I- I fucked it. I did. And there’s no- we all make mistakes, but it was me. I-I was the one who chose to side with the violent anarchist who wanted to destroy the thing I would sacrifice my discs for, and I, you know, put our shit behind that.
TUBBO: It’s okay though.
TOMMY: And I’m sorry. But-
TUBBO: Aw.
TOMMY: I’m sorry. I haven’t been… I haven’t been myself, but, ehm, we will tonight, alright? ‘Cause we’ve got shit to do, my friend.
TUBBO: Ehm, well, I mean, we have to rally everyone, don’t we? We have to go to what- where did we decide to set everything up? Over at Eret’s place? Get supplies.
TUBBO: We do!
TOMMY: Get supplies.
TOMMY: Get supplies.
TUBBO: I have no idea when they’re gonna get here, but-
TOMMY: There’s something I gotta do first. I mean, people don’t- I gotta, I gotta do it.
TUBBO: Okay…
TOMMY: I-I… okay. You go to the people and start rallying, I’ll join you, I’ll, you know, take lead once I’m there.
TUBBO: Okay, I’ll gotta get everything sorted.
TOMMY: We’ve gotta be- it’s gotta be me and you, Tubbo, it’s gotta be me and you versus Dream.
TOMMY: We’ve gotta leave everything we’ve done over the past weeks to the past, alright?
TUBBO: Yeah, of course.
TOMMY: Just like it always has been. And we’ve gotta do that tonight, because if we don’t tonight… I mean, you’ve heard what they’re saying. We’ll lose everything.
TUBBO: Yeah…
TOMMY: We’ll lose everything.
TUBBO: I mean, I don’t even know what would happen if L’Manberg were to get destroyed.
TOMMY: Okay, here’s what you do: you go rally them. I have something I have to do-
TUBBO: Okay.
TOMMY: And no one really knows what I have to do, but you rally them.
TUBBO: I will rally, I will rally!
TOMMY: I’ll speak to you, eh-
TOMMY: You start a plan, and then I’ll come and help, alright?
TUBBO: Speak to you soon.
TOMMY: Speak to you soon.
5:30
TOMMY: Okay, everybody. That was the right thing to do.
TOMMY does a waterbucket MLG.
TOMMY: We’ve still got it.
TOMMY: There’s something I need to do, that I didn’t really speak to you all about. We’ve got quite a while now to go. Now, listen to me, chat- Quackity’s leaving, Fundy’s leaving, what are you on about? No, no, no! We focus now, alright? There’s too many words shouted at me, shit in my head, streaks that I’ve lost, but we’ve got to- there is not enough time to read everyone’s- Fundy’s, what, what? Alright, I’m not reading the chat now. Here’s what I’ve got to do. Okay, okay, you know, we’ll walk.
TOMMY: Does anyone remember, eh, last night? I know I messed up, but there was one thing that really stuck. ‘Cause you know Sssa- you know, Sapnap, ‘cause I was watching this old video in my recommended about how all of these wars started, alright? And all of it started with me and Sapnap. And you know, you know, yesterday I realised - we need him on our side, man. ‘Cause it started with him and me, me and him. And a while age, a few months ago now, pre-exile, we had a fight. And it ended with me- I don’t know if anyone remembers, but it ended with me letting go of his pet fish, Beckerson. But I’ve been thinking about it, we can’t afford- we can’t afford to not have Sapnap. ‘Cause it started with us, and you know what? It’s gonna end with us. So we’ve gotta- and it can’t end with him betraying me again, so we’ve got to get him on our side. And I let his fish loose a longass time ago.
TOMMY: I’m not sure if it’s- is that it? Do you think it’ll be here still? What type of fish was it? “Mars”, Mars, Beckerson, Mars- I don’t, it doesn’t mean anything to me.
8:32
TOMMY: Is it around here? Guys, what type of fish was it? Is it- I mean, it might just not be here.
9:09
TOMMY: If it is still here, that’d be a miracle, but… everyone, if we can do this now, then- tropical? That means nothing to me. Oh is that- what the fuck!
TOMMY finds MARS swimming by the shore.
Tumblr media
TOMMY: Oh, wow, wow, wow, holy shit, holy shit! Okay, go, go, go, go, go! Oh my- okay, wow, wow, wow, we found it, we found it- what the fuck! Did it not despawn? Okay, you know what, no, no, no. What the fuck? Okay, we can’t MLG with that waterbucket anymore. How?! Does it not despawn? Okay, where is Sapnap? What we’ve gotta do is we find Sapnap and get him on our side ‘cause it started with us; we’re ending with us!
TOMMY messages SAPNAP
TOMMY, whispering: Hey
TOMMY, whispering: vc?
TOMMY: Hey Sapnap
SAPNAP messages TOMMY
SAPNAP: Hey
TOMMY: No, wait, this is too serious of an occasion, I can’t play the Able Sisters. Where are you, Sapnap?
SAPNAP: Eh, at the community house you blew up.
TOMMY: Oh. Forgot about that
SAPNAP: Yeah
TOMMY: I’m-
TOMMY: Hey, hey, I’m really- I didn’t blow it up, sorry, people just- you know what, I’ll just be like a trooper. I won’t keep saying I didn’t blow it up, I’ll just- listen to me.
SAPNAP: Hello
TOMMY: I know, ehm, I know you said you didn’t wanna team with us last night, Sapnap.
SAPNAP: Well, I’m just- I don’t know, I just don’t know who to help or if I should help anyone.
TOMMY: Listen, I know, I know, but I- what I want you to know, Sapnap, is that I know we’ve had quarrels. But there was this video in my recommended the other day, and it was detailing the entirety of the very first war on this server. And I realised all of it, all of it, started with me and you. And I know you killed Henry, and I know we had wars, and you fucked up so many times - but so did I. And here’s the thing, man, it doesn’t matter about the past, and it doesn’t matter about the future; it matters about right now. And right now, there is a plethora of supervillains literally going to destroy everything we’ve worked for. And I know, I know you have no reason to come back, but I know it started with us. And it started with us because I helped you, Sapnap. And I don’t stop, because I know I’ve fucked up, but I won’t stop, alright? And you don’t have to side with us, but, Sapnap, do you remember a while ago we had a little war, a little fight?
SAPNAP: I do remember.
TOMMY: Sapnap.
TOMMY: And it ended with you throwing away- what was it?
SAPNAP: Yeah?
TOMMY: I’m so sorry that you did that, and that I made you do that because it wasn’t right of me. And I shouldn’t- I shouldn’t take out any of the fucked up shit that’s happened to me out on other people, and I’m sorry.
SAPNAP: Alright.
TOMMY: But Sapnap- I got Mars back. And yeah, it’s the same Mars from where I- turns out they don’t despawn if they have a nametag on them!
SAPNAP: It’s Mars!
TOMMY: Turns out they don’t despawn if they have a nametag on them! I didn’t know that! But, but, Sapnap, please help us, please. Because it started with me and you, and it doesn’t have to end with me and you. And if we don’t do anything right now; tonight will be the end of L’Manberg. So, please, help us. We need you.
SAPNAP: Alright, Tommy, let’s do this.
TOMMY: Really?
SAPNAP: Yeah, let’s eh- let’s just kill them all! What, it’s just two people, right?
TOMMY: It’s just two people, right!
SAPNAP: It’s just two people, we can kill them!
TOMMY: They’ll be here in 30 minutes. Okay.
SAPNAP: We can kill them.
TOMMY: Okay, let’s go get basic stuff. Let’s- let me get on my armour now, it’s war time. Let’s get in a call.
SAPNAP: I’m putting Mars somewhere safe, I’m putting Mars somewhere safe.
13:45
TOMMY: Hello?
JACK MANIFOLD: Hello
PONK: Hello
TOMMY: Hello, where’s Tubbo?
JACK MANIFOLD: He went to speak to-to-to Big Q.
TOMMY: Okay, I’ll go speak to him. Hey everyone, hope you’re all well-
JACK MANIFOLD: Actually, I’m-
TECHNOBLADE: Hey idiots! Where you at? I’m in your house, stealing your stuff!
TOMMY: I know where his house is.
TOMMY: What?
TECHNOBLADE: I’m outside L’Manberg, boys, where you at!
TOMMY: There’s 25 more minutes, no you’re not!
TECHNOBLADE: Bro, you think I’m going to wait? You think I’m going to sit- you know what, Tommy? You know what, there is 24 minutes, I’m not there right now, I’m not - there’s no need to check. There’s no need to go to your base.
TOMMY: What the fuck-?
TECHNOBLADE: There’s 24 minutes left.
TOMMY: That’s a very strange and ominous thing to say.
TECHNOBLADE: You know what, you guys take your time, take your time.
TOMMY: What the fuck is this obsidian grid?
TECHNOBLADE: Take your time
TOMMY: Technoblade, wait, no, stop it now. Where are you?
TECHNOBLADE: I’m in L’Manberg.
PHILZA: Where do you think?
TOMMY: Philza Minecraft. You’re not-
TECHNOBLADE: That was also his laugh right there, isn’t it great?
TECHNOBLADE: Uh, that was my Philza Minecraft impression, isn’t it great?
TOMMY shoots a spectral arrow at an invisible person wearing netherite armour.
TOMMY: Is that you?
PHILZA: That’s me, that’s me.
TECHNOBLADE: Phil! You are the least stealthy person on this planet!
TOMMY: What the fuck? Wow, wow, wow, wow, wait, wait, wait, wait, no, no, no, no! Time out! We have 30 more minutes, we have 30 more minutes until you got here!
TECHNOBLADE: You got nothing, Tommy!
TOMMY: What do you mean we’ve got- wait, where’s Tubbo?
TECHNOBLADE: You have nothing! Where is your army?
TOMMY: Where is my- you- what the fuck!
TECHNOBLADE: My army is right here!
TOMMY: You said 30 minutes, you said you’d be here in 30 minutes!
TECHNOBLADE: Oh no! Did we lie? Oh no!
TOMMY: What the fuck?
PHILZA: You think we’re gonna be fair? You think we’re gonna be fair? This is war, Tommy.
TECHNOBLADE: Oh no, I wasn’t honourable about the 1v30 that’s gonna happen, I’m sorry.
TOMMY: Where’s Tubbo?
TOMMY: Eret, Eret, do you have a waterbucket? Can I borrow that, please? Why is it just me and you-?
TOMMY messages TUBBO
TOMMY, messaging: TUBBO
Tommy, messaging: GET FUCKING HERE
TECHNOBLADE: There’s two guys here.
TECHNOBLADE: Is this your army? Man, I overprepared for this.
ERET: Where is everyone else?
TUBBO: Tommy, what’s wrong?
TOMMY: Tubbo, you stupid son of a bitch, get to L’Manberg!
TUBBO: The prepares are all like gone, they were sabotaged.
TUBBO: What, what, what, what?
TOMMY: What do you mean ‘sabotaged’? What does that mean?
TUBBO: There was literally nothing there, Tommy! There was just a crater.
TOMMY: Oh. Dream?
TUBBO: Tommy, what are you doing?
TOMMY falls to his death to escape possibly DREAM’s TNT.
JACK MANIFOLD: That was a really uneventful war
TOMMY: Don’t worry, I’m running back, I’m running back.
ERET: There’s so many dogs!
TECHNOBLADE: Oh, I’m stupid, I have a flint and steel.
ERET: Tommy, I got some of your stuff.
TOMMY: Eret, can you just take all my stuff?
TOMMY: Yeah, just keep it there.
TECHNOBLADE: I can’t see anything, there’s too many dogs!
PHILZA: Get out of the way!
TECHNOBLADE: I can’t burn any of the stuff. This sucks!
ERET: Why is there so many dogs?
TECHNOBLADE: Why do you think?
QUACKITY: What the hell is going on? What is this?
TOMMY: Guys, I took a tumble.
QUACKITY: What are you doing? This isn’t a goddamn zoo, Technoblade!
TECHNOBLADE: Oh, you messed up, you messed up!
QUACKITY: Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ.
ERET: Tommy, where are you?
TOMMY: I’m just running, I gotta set my spawn.
TECHNOBLADE: You messed up!
TUBBO: Oh my god, oh my god, what the hell
TOMMY: Tubbo?
TECHNOBLADE: You messed up, Tubbo! Let loose the dogs of war!
TOMMY: What does that mean?!
ERET: There’s too many dogs!
TOMMY: Tubbo, fight him!
TUBBO: I am!
QUACKITY: Oh Jesus, fuck, why?
QUACKITY: What the hell! What are you doing?
TECHNOBLADE: Get out of here! Get out of here, Ponk!
TOMMY: Tubbo, stay alive!
TUBBO: I’m doing fine!
TOMMY: Eret, Eret, meet me on the bridge there. Meet me on the way.
TECHNOBLADE: You idiot!
QUACKITY: What the hell are you doing?
TECHNOBLADE: Sapnap really thought he was slick. He was like ‘Oh I’m about to jump Technoblade and nothing bad is going to happen’.
QUACKITY: You realise we’re gonna kill all these dogs as soon as you go, right, Techno?
TOMMY: Eret, Eret, I’m on the path there.
TECHNOBLADE: I’ve already killed three of you guys!
ERET: I’m in the tunnel
TECHNOBLADE: Oh yeah, hit me with that axe, Punz! Hit me with that axe!
TOMMY messages Eret
TOMMY, whispering: IM HERE
PUNZ: I’m running, I’m running. I don’t wanna die!
TECHNOBLADE: Wait, did I actually get back my trident?
TOMMY messages Eret
TOMMY, whispering: AT CHESS
QUACKITY: What are you doing?
PUFFY: Why are there so many?
SAPNAP: Why is there so many dogs?
TOMMY messages Eret
TOMMY, whispering: STUFF PLS
TOMMY, whispering: STUFF PLS
TOMMY, whispering: STUFF PLS
TECHNOBLADE: Dogs!
QUACKITY: This has gotta be illegal in some countries!
TECHNOBLADE: I just killed like 50 of my dogs by accident!
PUFFY: That is definitely illegal
TECHNOBLADE: Not the sweeping edge!
QUACKITY: There’s no way this is all legal
TECHNOBLADE: Get ‘em dogs! Get ‘em!
ERET is giving TOMMY his stuff back.
SAPNAP: Holy crap!
TOMMY: Oh no.
JACK MANIFOLD: Technoblade, people won’t be happy about this.
TECHNOBLADE: You guys aren’t allowed to kill these dogs, no killing pets! No killing pets in L’Manberg!
TOMMY: You got any blocks, any blocks?
ERET: Yeah, there you go.
TOMMY: You got a shield and water bucket, please?
SAPNAP: Punz, Punz, Punz, focus on the dogs.
PUNZ: No, kill Techno, kill Techno.
ERET: Eh, no, I don’t have a spare bucket. That’s all I have
TOMMY: Okay.
TECHNOBLADE: Oh, welcome back!
PONK: No!
TECHNOBLADE: This is actually not great.
SAPNAP: Alright.
PHILZA: *Laughing*
TOMMY: Alright, regroup, regroup. Where is everyone? Where is everyone?
PUFFY: In L’Manberg!
JACK MANIFOLD: Yeah, we’re all- we’re all in L’Manberg.
TOMMY: Holy- okay, okay! On the top of here, on the top of here-
TECHNOBLADE: Whatever you’re doing!
TOMMY:- Do you have a shield, goddamnit? Oh my god!
TECHNOBLADE: Oh yeah, a shield is gonna protect you from the wolves!
TOMMY: Do you have a shield?! Ranboo! Why are you standing still?
JACK MANIFOLD: Stop killing those animals, Sapnap.
RANBOO: What’s going on?
TOMMY: Can I have a shield, please?!
TECHNOBLADE: Oh god, I didn’t think about Sapnap!
RANBOO: What’s going on?
TECHNOBLADE: No one kills animals like Sapnap!
TOMMY: Tubbo, where are you?
TECHNOBLADE: That’s his whole thing!
QUACKITY: That’s true!
TECHNOBLADE: Get out of here, Jack Manifold! Dogs, attack!
SAPNAP: I’m killing so many dogs!
JACK MANIFOLD: Oh!
SAPNAP: Jack!
RANBOO: It wasn’t supposed to start yet.
TECHNOBLADE: Dogs, attack! Everyone’s just cutting down my dogs! What is this?
ERET: Oh my god!
TOMMY: Everyone, focus! Where’s Tubbo?
TUBBO: I’m here!
TOMMY: Why are you so quiet? There’s a traitor in our goddamn midst!
TUBBO: What do you mean?
TOMMY: What do you mean? There’s Technoblade!
QUACKITY: There’s a shitton of dogs in fucking L’Manberg!
TUBBO: Yeah, there’s-
QUACKITY: Oh! What the hell?!
PHILZA: Yeah, don’t worry about it.
TECHNOBLADE: Hbomb! Hbomb get over here! Eret!
ERET: Huh?
20:22
TOMMY: Techno. Techno, stop! Where are you?
TECHNOBLADE: You know what? I’m feeling merciful. If you guys all back off and let me blow up this country, you can live!
QUACKITY: You’re gonna rig these dogs with bombs, how exactly are you gonna do that with dogs?
TOMMY: Holy shit, how are there so many?! Oh my god!
TECHNOBLADE: So many of my dogs have died.
SAPNAP: Alright, they’re almost all dead!
QUACKITY: You literally just said you killed like 50 of your dogs!
TOMMY: Techno.
QUACKITY: What are you doing?
TECHNOBLADE: It was like 20 of my dogs, to be fair.
TOMMY: How many dogs do you have?
QUACKITY: How many did you bring?
PUFFY: Too many!
ERET: Not enough.
SAPNAP: Oh he’s eating a Notch apple, he’s eating a Notch apple!
TOMMY: Techno.
TECHNOBLADE: Oh, I’ve got a few of those!
TECHNOBLADE: Oh, 17 minutes. Take your time, Ranboo! No need to rush.
TOMMY: Okay, okay. Tubbo, where are you?
21:09
NIKI: Will?
TUBBO: I’m literally right next to you!
TOMMY: Tubbo, Tubbo, I see you! I see you, I see you!
TECHNOBLADE: The signal!
TOMMY: What’s the signal?
SAPNAP: Guys, Technoblade is right here!
JACK MANIFOLD: The signal?
TOMMY: Where?
A wither spawns.
TOMMY: Eret, Eret- holy shit! Okay! Get down, get down!
TECHNOBLADE: Why did I pearl into it?
QUACKITY: Okay, okay- oh no, no, no.
RANBOO: Not again, not again.
QUACKITY: This is not good.
TUBBO: Not the bees!
TOMMY: Holy shit, holy shit!
QUACKITY: Okay, okay, I don’t even have shit.
TUBBO: Not the bees!
QUACKITY: Okay, alright.
FUNDY: Why did you spawn one on the bees?
SAPNAP: Why did you spawn on the bees?
TOMMY: Not there.
EVERYONE: The bees!
22:02
There’s three withers now.
TOMMY: Holy shit!
JACK MANIFOLD: No!
TOMMY: Okay, Ranboo, Ranboo, stick with me.
RANBOO: Yeah, yeah.
TOMMY: Okay, we’re gonna fight as a group; everyone round up! At the bee house! At the bee house! Tubbo, take charge! There’s one at the bee house; get it! Get the one at the bee house!
PUFFY: It’s got me!
TOMMY: There’s four of them! Ah! Five!
ERET: There’s so many withers.
TECHNOBLADE: Why are they shooting me?
TOMMY: Everyone! Eret. Everyone - kill them! Please.
TECHNOBLADE: What are you doing here?
QUACKITY: I’m feeling from the country!
TOMMY: Oh my god. Technoblade! L’Manberg!
QUACKITY: Oh no, oh no, no, no.
TOMMY crawls atop of the camarvan, looking around at the destruction the withers are bringing to the country.
TOMMY: L’Manberg!
TECHNOBLADE: I should’ve kept more invis potions. That would’ve been a good idea. Mind your business, mind your business.
PONK: My cat died!
TOMMY: L’Manberg!
RANBOO: Jack, run.
JACK MANIFOLD: I’m trying, I’m really trying!
TOMMY: Punz!
TECHNOBLADE: Oh TommyInnit!
TOMMY: I’m running!
SAPNAP: NO!
TOMMY: Holy shit.
TECHNOBLADE: Okay, what wither is attacking me?
TOMMY: Gotta get iron.
TECHNOBLADE: What is this? What is this? This not the plan.
23:16
TOMMY: Chat, we gotta get iron! We gotta get a bucket, then we can go up, then we can go up.
TOMMY: Okay, Technoblade, listen.
RANBOO: Oh, Jack’s got two on him, that’s not good.
PONK: Bro, I found a wither rose.
TECHNOBLADE: I need to get my stuff back.
TOMMY: Oh, okay.
TECHNOBLADE: I need invis potions.
JACK MANIFOLD: Oh, there’s one here!
HBOMB: Niki, I gave you some stuff.
NIKI: Aha
RANBOO: Oh my god, there’s an entire army down there.
QUACKITY: Niki, can I speak to you, can I speak to you?
RANBOO: There’s an entire army around
NIKI: Sure.
TECHNOBLADE: Looking for invis potions!
RANBOO: I gotta get out of here.
TOMMY: You know what? We’ll speak to Techno. Tubbo, Tubbo, everyone - please! L’Manberg! Just group up, we can’t fight this solo.
TUBBO: I’m already grouped up.
TOMMY: Alright, I’m coming, I’m coming.
TECHNOBLADE: There’s nothing in here, I should have gotten more invis.
TOMMY: Okay, get in the- Tubbo! Get in the caravan! Get in the caravan!
TOMMY: Alright, listen to me- oh hello. Tubbo, where are you?
TUBBO: Getting in the caravan!
TOMMY: Get in the caravan now!
TECHNOBLADE: Oh yeah, the caravan. That’ll save you.
TUBBO: Okay!
TOMMY: Okay, listen to me, listen to me- arh! Okay, listen to me, listen to me- oh no. I know this looks bad.
TECHNOBLADE: Oh there’s one after me! Oh, the cruel irony!
TOMMY: Here’s what we do! We go for the withers alright, we fight one wither at a time, we fight them as a group. Please! We don’t have enough time! Get out, go, go! Holy shit!
RANBOO: There’s nine! There’s nine withers!
SAPNAP: Oh my god!
TECHNOBLADE: I need more invis! This was not according to the plan!
TOMMY: L’Manberg!
TOMMY: We’ve gotta get out.
TECHNOBLADE: Do you have invis potions?
RANBOO: There’s one, there’s one.
TOMMY: L’Manberg.
TUBBO: This is…
TOMMY: He’s minding you.
TECHNOBLADE: Don’t mind me! Don’t mind me!
TECHNOBLADE: Don’t mind me! The particles!
TUBBO: Oh my god.
TECHNOBLADE: Smokescreen technique! Smokescreen technique!
TOMMY: Holy shit! Jack Manifold, get in the tunnel! Okay, okay, speak to me - speak to me! Oh my god!
TECHNOBLADE: Phil! Phil, meet me in your house!
SAPNAP: Kill the withers! Kill the withers!
TECHNOBLADE: Meet me in your house, Phil!
RANBOO: This is not good.
TOMMY: I can’t- okay, we gotta kill them one at a time, one at a time, Jack. Wait for it to come down, one at a time.
25:49
TECHNOBLADE: What the heck is “Do Not Read”?
TOMMY: L’Manberg!
JACK MANIFOLD: Oh shit, oh shit!
TOMMY: Oh if only I had “How to Sex 2” on me right now. Keep him there, Jack! Take ‘em down one at a time!
RANBOO: You guys-
TOMMY: Jack, please.
SAPNAP: Eret, Eret, can I borrow- Eret-
TOMMY: Have we got any of them?
TUBBO: This is…
TECHNOBLADE: Ranboo, you’re alright, I’ll give you time to get away. Ranboo, get out of here, Ranboo! I don’t have anything against you. You can get out of here, just flee the battle, no one will know!
PHILZA: No one will know.
TECHNOBLADE: Except that wither, except that wither!
TOMMY: Holy shit!
TECHNOBLADE: It’s okay, you just gotta get away from that wither, it’s fine!
TECHNOBLADE: What am I doing here?
TOMMY: Oh! Everything is going!
TOMMY: Tubbo, please. Tubbo, stick with me!
TUBBO: I am still here with you.
TOMMY: Okay, let’s- everyone, listen to me if you can hear me! Take them down one at a time! Look how low they’re getting! Use the Axe of Peace unironically!
TECHNOBLADE: Let’s go!
TOMMY: Come on, one at a time, one at a time! Please!
TECHNOBLADE: Ten more minutes, Phil! Ten more minutes!
ERET: Big Q!
QUACKITY: What do you want from me? I don’t even have anything!
PONK: Take this!
TECHNOBLADE: Check this out.
PONK: Fuck you!
QUACKITY: Yes, let’s go, Ponk!
PONK: Oh, he dropped it! No!
TOMMY pearls a bit higher up in silence, trying to get some kind of high ground.
QUACKITY: I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I dropped it. I don’t even have a sword, Ponk!
PUFFY: No!
PONK: Take this!
QUACKITY: Do you have my bow?
PONK: I don’t know!
RANBOO: Where are they?
QUACKITY: Do you have my bow? Ponk, you picked up my things!
PONK: I don’t have your bow, no.
TOMMY: Alright, where are you- Sapnap! Sapnap, listen to me! This isn’t the end.
QUACKITY: Jesus Christ!
TOMMY: Sapnap!
PHILZA: Have fun with that!
RANBOO: Where are they?
QUACKITY: Fuck, it looks ugly!
RANBOO: There is an entire wither on me!
ERET: Kill the withers!
QUACKITY: Oh no.
TECHNOBLADE: He might have seen through my disguise.
TOMMY: Technoblade, where are you? Ranboo, kill it!
RANBOO: I’m trying, I’m trying!
TECHNOBLADE: I’m actually back at my base. I spawned the withers and dipped.
ERET: No! Get them away from here
TECHNOBLADE: The invis is working!
TOMMY: Okay, go down- everyone, everyone!
RANBOO: No, no, no.
QUACKITY: Get him, so I can take his things.
TOMMY: Who is this? Who is that?
TUBBO: Oh, it’s Puffy.
TOMMY: Why would you take invis?
PUFFY: I didn’t take anything!
TOMMY: Okay, everyone; focus. Okay, here’s what we do! Listen to me if you can hear me! I repeat: focus the withers first, then fight Techno!
RANBOO: Come on. Come on!
TECHNOBLADE: Splash them with invis! They won’t know who’s who!
TUBBO: He’s come from the tunnel where I died! He’s not on our side, he’s gappling!
TECHNOBLADE: Tubbo has a totem of undying, guys!
QUACKITY: I have no clothes, but I-
TUBBO: No! Ranboo kill that!
QUACKITY: Who is that?
TOMMY: L’Manberg!
QUACKITY: I need you to hold me, Sapnap!
TOMMY: L’Manberg, Big Q!
TECHNOBLADE: Yeah, yeah, he’s got a shield.
TOMMY: L’Manberg, holy shit!
TECHNOBLADE: Oh, wait.
TOMMY: Big Q! Oh, he’s pissed now!
TECHNOBLADE: Oh, here it is.
QUACKITY: Let’s go, Tommy! Now we can get these withers! Let’s fucking go!
TECHNOBLADE: TNT! YEAH!
TOMMY: Can we?
TOMMY: What?
SAPNAP: TNT’s raining from the sky!
TOMMY: L’Manberg!
TOMMY: What the fuck?
TECHNOBLADE: YES!
TOMMY: Where? Holy shit! Holy shit!
SAPNAP: Quackity!
QUACKITY: Sapnap, am I gonna die? Am I gonna die? What the fuck?
SAPNAP: You’re not gonna die, you’re not gonna die.
QUACKITY: What the fuck is going on, what the fuck is going on?
RANBOO: Oh god, oh god. Just run!
TUBBO: What is-
HBOMB: How much TNT is that?
RANBOO: Tubbo.
TECHNOBLADE: Tubbo is gone! Minecraft rage!
TOMMY: Tubbo? Tubbo!
QUACKITY: What is going on?
TUBBO: What?
TOMMY: Tubbo, turn around.
QUACKITY: What is going on?
TECHNOBLADE: Yes!
RANBOO: It’s all gone.
QUACKITY: What is going- what-
TOMMY: How did we not-
SAPNAP: Who is this?
PONK: Stay back! No, no, no, don’t come over here!
QUACKITY: What is going on? Holy shit.
TOMMY: Philza Minecraft?
TECHNOBLADE: How much longer do we need to stall, Phil?
PHILZA: I think we’ve done enough damage, for the stall.
TOMMY: Oh no. Tubbo, they’re gonna land on us next! Tubbo! Tubbo! Tubbo, look at me! Look at me, Tubbo!
TECHNOBLADE: Look at what you’re president of, Tubbo!
30:31
TOMMY: Techno. Technoblade, look at me! Do not shoot. Do not shoot.
TECHNOBLADE: Tommy. You had your chance, Tommy!
TOMMY: Technoblade, listen to me! For once in your life! You didn’t have to- you didn’t have to do this. You could have compromised! The thing about the the discs, Technoblade, is that they were for me! We could have had a government, you could have let us live with this!
TECHNOBLADE: I don’t care about the discs, Tommy! I was upfront with you from the start! The government has to go!
TOMMY: You didn’t compromise! Technoblade, you are selfish!
TECHNOBLADE: Selfish? You used me from the start, Tommy! You’re wearing my helmet!
TOMMY: Technoblade, you said we betrayed you! You said we betrayed you! You said that we were the ones who betrayed you!
TECHNOBLADE: You betrayed me like 12 times!
TOMMY: Technoblade, look at me. Look at me right now. You said you hated governments, you said that we were the ones that betrayed you; but you’re the one who killed Tubbo when JSchlatt told you to! You’re the one who betrayed us! Out of all of this, Technoblade,
TECHNOBLADE: I was peer pressured! You betrayed me!
TOMMY: Listen to me!
TECHNOBLADE: You used me! You’ve never thought of me as a friend, Tommy, you’ve just used me from the start.
TOMMY: I have, Techno.
TECHNOBLADE: You just saw me as The Blade, that’s all I was to you. The Blade! A weapon! Well, guess what… I’m choosing what I’m fighting for now.
TECHNOBLADE fires rockets at TOMMY. Just before the second rocket hits, TUBBO jumps in front of him to protect him.
TECHNOBLADE: And I’m going to destroy the government, Tommy! You’ll all die! It’s gone! We’re chunk erroring this!
TOMMY: Techno. Techno. Techno. Look at me, look at me. Please. Don’t fight, Tubbo.
TECHNOBLADE: Is that really the fight- who keeps shooting me?
TOMMY: Techno, look at me! You’re the one who did this! The people- you were my friend, you were my friend! You were The Blade, you were our-
TECHNOBLADE: Tommy.
TECHNOBLADE: Who’s over there? Sapnap, we’re having a moment! Get out of here!
TOMMY: Listen to me! I thought friendship- Techno, for once in your life, listen to me! You were my friend!
TECHNOBLADE: I listened to you for weeks!
TOMMY: Just listen to me!
TECHNOBLADE: I helped you! And you went back to Tubbo, the guy that exiled you! He chose his country over you.
TOMMY: Techno, people are above the government! We- it doesn’t matter if we want a government-
32:57
TECHNOBLADE: I am a person!
TOMMY: You are, Technoblade! And so are we! You- the reason the discs were important is because they were stolen from me. Nothing was taken from you!
TECHNOBLADE: The discs aren’t people!
TOMMY: Nothing was taken from you here! You’re selfish! You destroy what people love for your own self gain. You’re selfish!
TECHNOBLADE: All of these problems are because of your government. Your government has caused all these issues! I believe in freedom, Tommy!
TOMMY: You don’t believe in- when you were peer pressured, that’s not freedom! That was you following what the government- that was the president telling you to-
TECHNOBLADE: Tommy, that was like four months ago!
TOMMY: It was, and you killed Tubbo! Don’t forget about the past right now! Tubbo, back up for me here! He killed you!
TUBBO: Yeah...
TECHNOBLADE: He’s president, he’s president! Get him out of here! He’s wearing your helmet!
TOMMY: And you killed him.
TECHNOBLADE: Yeah, ‘cause he’s the president!
TOMMY: But even when he wasn’t the president, you killed him as well.
TECHNOBLADE: Yeah, that’s true.
TOMMY: You’re as bad as the government, Technoblade. In fact, you know what, you’re worse.
TECHNOBLADE: I was stood there alone against a whole government, and you and Wilbur just sat there on the sidelines and watched. Did you step in? Did you step in? Were you guys the ones who stepped and said “Don’t worry, Technoblade, we know you’re in a high pressure situation, but we’ll fight the world for you, Technoblade!” No, you guys watched! You know what I did? Yesterday? When you were surrounded by like 30 people and the whole world was against you? I walked in, I was willing to fight all of them for you, Tommy. I would have been there.
TOMMY: Techno-
TECHNOBLADE: That is the difference between us.
TOMMY: We spent hours together, man.
TECHNOBLADE: Don’t speak to me of loyalty!
TOMMY: No, you were my friend, and you betrayed us!
TECHNOBLADE: You never thought of me as a friend!
TOMMY: And the thing about this government is that- it didn’t interfere with you!
TECHNOBLADE: Yes, it did!
TOMMY: You have your own freedom, just let people love what they love, man! You’re selfish, Techno.
TOMMY: The discs interfered with us, they were stolen by Dream! Why would you side with the maniac-?
TECHNOBLADE: They hunted me down! The whole butcher army! And they executed me! I tried being peaceful, Tommy, but the government made it clear-
TECHNOBLADE: I used to think like that, Tommy. You know what they did to me?
TOMMY: You didn’t have to do this.
TECHNOBLADE: I did! The government-
TOMMY: They executed you because you blew up the entire- you spawned withers just like you’ve done again! All you did is repeat history, but worse. You’re selfish.
TECHNOBLADE: You guys brought this upon yourselves. I was prepared to live peacefully in my cottage and be chill, and just farm-
TOMMY: Techno, you can’t live in a cottage after you blow up the government. That’s not how it works. Actions have consequences.
TECHNOBLADE: Actions do have consequences, Tommy. And these are the consequences! It’s over! I’m killing Quackity! He’s got actual armor.
QUACKITY: No, no, no. Why?
TECHNOBLADE: Get back here! Get back here!
35:34
TOMMY: Tubbo
TECHNOBLADE: Get back here! He’s got my armor
QUACKITY: No, I stole this, this is mine!
TECHNOBLADE: Get back here!
QUACKITY: Technoblade, Technoblade, we attacked you- goddamnit! We attacked you at your cottage because you did exactly this! You did this, you exploded L’Manberg!
TECHNOBLADE: I was willing to be peaceful!
TECHNOBLADE: I changed!
QUACKITY: It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter, you were part of the hitlist. Technoblade, you were meant to suffer the consequences for what you did. That’s what happened.
TOMMY: Everything.
TECHNOBLADE: This is the consequences for hunting me down!
TECHNOBLADE: Taken my punishment and left? You would have literally killed me! What do you mean left?
QUACKITY: That’s true, that’s very true!
TOMMY: Technoblade!
QUACKITY: Technoblade, listen, you had to. You had to. And it was for L’Manberg, and it was for the country.
TECHNOBLADE: Oh, I hate this, what is this-
TOMMY: You’ve become the tyrant.
TECHNOBLADE: The tyrant? Bruh, bruh.
TOMMY: You’ve become the tyrant.
TECHNOBLADE: I am one man, the world will be better. The world will be better without the government! Airstrike!
ERET: Oh my god.
TECHNOBLADE: Airstrike! It wouldn’t be a final boss if I didn’t have stages”
ERET: Woah!
PHILZA: Yeah! Yeah! Go!
TUBBO: I don’t…
TOMMY: Tubbo?
TECHNOBLADE: Why is the wither following me in the sky? It’s ruining my moment.
TUBBO: Yeah.
TOMMY: Tubbo?
TECHNOBLADE: Oh my god.
37:24
TOMMY: Tubbo! It’s gone!
TUBBO: Seems like history really is doomed to repeat itself.
TOMMY: The caravan… the caravan! The camarvan!
TUBBO: Oh man.
QUACKITY: Fellas, there’s still L’Mantree.
TOMMY: There’s still, there’s still the tree.
QUACKITY: The L’Mantree’s still alive.
TUBBO: The L’Mantree.
QUACKITY: Come on. Just-
TOMMY: As long as the tree’s alive. Yeah, yeah, get to the tree.
TUBBO: I’m going to the tree.
QUACKITY: Head to the tree. Where’s-
TOMMY: Wilbur! That was my last memory of Wilbur! Of the real Wilbur.
QUACKITY: Where’s the fucking tree?
TOMMY: The tree’s in the box.
QUACKITY: Where’s the goddamn-
TUBBO: The tree-yeah.
QUACKITY: Okay, where is it, where is it?
TOMMY: The tree-
TUBBO: Eh the tree is supposed to be here. Right here.
QUACKITY: Tommy. Tubbo.
TUBBO: The tree is meant to be here where I’m standing.
QUACKITY: It’s gone.
TUBBO: The tree is gone.
TOMMY: No. No, it’s not. No, it’s not!
QUACKITY: The tree is gone!
TOMMY: Wait-
TUBBO: It’s gone.
TOMMY rejoins the other VC.
PHIL: Where do you think-?
TOMMY: Where’s the tree?
PONK: No, please!
TOMMY: Where’s the tree?
PONK: Please!
TECHNOBLADE: Every time I see you, you have less armor.
PONK: No!
TECHNOBLADE: Guess who’s gently gliding towards you, Ponk!
TOMMY: Tubbo.
TOMMY: Technoblade, where’s- where’s the L’Mantree?
TECHNOBLADE: Bro, I don’t know what- I’m gonna be real with you, I don’t know what the L’Mantree is. No one ever told me about it.
TOMMY: Does any-
TECHNOBLADE: Dream said something about blowing up the L’Mantree, so - mhm.
FUNDY: It’s gone! It’s gone!
QUACKITY: It’s fucking gone!
TECHNOBLADE: I hate trees!
QUACKITY: It’s out, that’s it.
FUNDY: It’s all gone! Everything! Everything is gone!
ERET: The downfall.
TECHNOBLADE: This wither is so annoying- wait, I can just kill this wither. This wither sucks. Yeah! I have dogs! My dogs!
39:21
TOMMY: VC 2, Tubbo and Big Q.
TUBBO: Mhm.
QUACKITY: It’s gone.
TOMMY: Is it- Tubbo, Tubbo, take half of these. Is it really all-?
QUACKITY: Tommy. There’s no use, it’s gone. It’s gone.
TOMMY: No, it’s not- no, no, no, no.
TOMMY: This is the way I travelled with Wilbur. Walk from here on out, Tubbo. This is… it can’t be. It can’t be.
QUACKITY: L’Manberg no longer exists.
TOMMY: Tubbo. L’Manberg… it’s gone.
TUBBO: Yeah, this is definitely beyond the point of repair.
TOMMY: L’Manberg is...Tubbo….Tubbo.
TUBBO: Mhm… I am speechless.
TOMMY: Let’s just make a new bed out of this, just in case.
TUBBO: Good idea. Wait, actually, Tommy, there’s a bed just over here. I made a bed.
TOMMY: Oh, okay.
TUBBO: - before. I think, anyway.
TOMMY: I got three wool.
TUBBO: Yeah, that bed is almost definitely gone.
TOMMY: Let’s just grab some…
TUBBO: Yeah, it’s definitely…
TOMMY: Why did Wilbur… Tubbo, Tubbo, set your spawn.
TUBBO: I can’t actually run anymore. That’s fine.
TOMMY: Hey.
TUBBO: Hey.
TUBBO: Yeah, this is… this was planned.
TOMMY: It’s for real.

TOMMY: You bastard.
DREAM: Tommy. Look, in all destruction there’s a new beginning.
TOMMY: You did this! To all of us, not just to me, but to everyone here.
DREAM: Beautiful. You know, the unfinished symphony, right?
TOMMY: Yeah… why?
DREAM: The server will be at peace now.
TOMMY: Why, Dream? Couldn’t you just, couldn’t you just have burned the discs? Couldn’t you just have done it… to me? Why did you have to…
DREAM: This is much more fun.
TOMMY: You’re a monster.
DREAM: Okay. Well, I think I’m gonna go far from here. For a little while, just to avoid the wave of frustration that I’m sure you’ll have.
TOMMY: This is too far, you’ve crossed- you know you’re a monster. You’ve crossed the line. This is everyone-
DREAM: Tommy, I’m not done with you, okay? Yeah, our story’s not over, L’Manberg’s story is over, but, you know, our story’s not over. I have your discs, I’m sure I’ll see you soon, but-
TOMMY: You’re right. Listen to me, our story’s not over-
DREAM: You’re right.
TOMMY: -but it will be. You know what, Dream? It will be soon.
DREAM: I don’t think our story will ever be over, Tommy.
TOMMY: Oh, I think it will be.
DREAM: I think that you’re just too fun. I don’t think it’ll be over. But I’ll see you soon. This was a good time.
46:26
TOMMY: Where’s Ghostbur?
GHOSTBUR: Hi guys! Ehm, I- what’s going on around here?
TOMMY: Turn these off, Big Q, turn these off.
QUACKITY: Jesus Christ, you scared me.
GHOSTBUR: I just- I came to see my sewer. I was having a little walk, and I came to my sewer, and it’s just a big hole. What’s happened- is- we- hey, you guys are all walking along the big obsidian thing!
QUACKITY: We’re… oh my god.
TOMMY: Ghostbur… it’s over.
GHOSTBUR: What’s over? I just started my stream.
QUACKITY: He keeps going- break em, break em, break em, he keeps going- oh my god.
TOMMY: Ghostbur, it’s over.
GHOSTBUR: No, don’t talk like that-
GHOSTBUR: You mean L’Manberg?
TOMMY: Tubbo!
GHOSTBUR: It’s been like this before! This is-
TUBBO: It has not been like this before.
GHOSTBUR: It has!
TOMMY: Wilbur, Wilbur. We lost.
GHOSTBUR: I didn’t even know we were fighting.
TUBBO: Mhm.
QUACKITY: We were. Your L’Manberg is gone.
TOMMY: Our L’Manberg.
QUACKITY: Yeah, our L’Manberg.
TOMMY: Just turn these off.
QUACKITY: Yeah.
GHOSTBUR: Wait, this was Philza? Phil was looking after friend. Wait…
TUBBO: No, there’s no way that friend survived.
TOMMY: Tubbo, where are you?
TUBBO: Over here.
TOMMY: Listen to me. L’Manberg… we lost, Tubbo. But-
QUACKITY: Oh fuck.
TOMMY: But this is- but remember this. Please, Tubbo.
TUBBO: Mhm.
TOMMY: Do you wanna know why all of- we’ve gotta end it, Tubbo.
GHOSTBUR: End?
TUBBO: How do you suggest we do that?
GHOSTBUR: Friend…
TOMMY: We’re gonna do the last thing there is to do. We have to, now. Before we lose everything.
TOMMY hits his desk hard twice.
GHOSTBUR: Where’s friend?
TOMMY: We’ve got to.
GHOSTBUR: Phil?
TUBBO: What are you hitting?
TOMMY: Phil.
TUBBO: Yeah, Phil.
GHOSTBUR: I gave friend to Phil to look after, and Dream, Dream found me friend. And Technoblade, he was- we were- he said we were friends.
TOMMY: Technoblade… here’s the thing, Wilbur.
GHOSTBUR: See, people wouldn’t lie about that, would they?
TOMMY: Wilbur, the problem with Technoblade-
GHOSTBUR: Why is it- why is still-? That was my blue, that was my blue!
TOMMY: The problem with Technoblade, Wilbur, is that he was our friend all along. And here’s the thing that you gotta understand; we were never his friend. And so to him, this was all just an act of politics, it was all just an act of clout and a social ladder. But to us, and I think this has always been - and you won’t remember, Tubbo you will, Big Q, this has just been a friendship. But to Technoblade, this was a ladder, and Technoblade’s climbed to the tippity top. Do you wanna know the only way you can go? On a ladder?
GHOSTBUR: I didn’t think you were gonna say that one.
GHOSTBUR: Side to side?
TOMMY, laughing: I’m so sorry, Ghostbur.
TUBBO: You can go up.
TOMMY: No, no, once you reach the top of the ladder, Tubbo, you can only go down.
GHOSTBUR: Side to side.
TOMMY: You could go side to side, but really there would be no point.
TUBBO: The top of the ladder-
TOMMY: The ladder’s incredibly thin, social ladders are actually very thin. It’s quite renown. I’ve read books.
GHOSTBUR: You could go side to side, but then you would also fall off the ladder.
TOMMY: You would fall off the ladder, and then you’d split your neck.
GHOSTBUR: Maybe you split your neck, and you might bleed and die.
QUACKITY: That’s true. That’s what ladders do.
GHOSTBUR: It’s Fundy, and Technoblade.
TOMMY: Fundy, don’t- listen, you know what? We’re not L’Manberg anymore, but we’re still together, and I need you to listen… although-
QUACKITY: Fellas.
GHOSTBUR: Where’s friend?
TUBBO: I suppose.
GHOSTBUR: Where’s friend?
QUACKITY: Just to pay our vice.
TOMMY: One last time.
QUACKITY: Alright.
GHOSTBUR: It’s like Hamilton.
TOMMY: Just like Hamilton.
TUBBO: Just like Hamilton.
QUACKITY: I don’t know what Hamilton is, but yeah, just like Hamilton. Alright, fellas.
TOMMY: Ghostbur?
GHOSTBUR: Yeah?
QUACKITY: Sing with me.
TOMMY: You know the anthem better than anyone else.
L’Manberg Anthem
I heard there was a special place
Where men could go and emancipate
The brutality
And tyranny
Of their rulers
Well, this place is real
You needn’t fret
With Wilbur, Tommy, Tubbo, Fuck Eret
A very big and not blown up L’Manburg
My L’Manburg
My L’Manburg
My L’Manburg
My L’Manburg
For freedom and for liberty
Our nation sought to build on these
A victory for all under our freedom
Well the darkness came and then it went
We built a home and watched it sink
And from the rubble
Emerged my great
L’Manburg
My L’manburg
My L’manburg
My L’manburg
My L’manburg
With bloodied hands
And weakened knees
Our peoplе rose like
The phoеnix
Our empty fields and canals ‘round
L’Mantree
With sweat and tears we armed our ranks
We laid foundations in our land
And from every lips for
Here up to forever
We sing L’Manburg
We sing L’Manburg
We sing L’Manburg
We sing L’Manburg
54:44
GHOSTBUR: The L’Mantree’s gone.
TOMMY: It’s all gone.
TUBBO: Yes, it is.
QUACKITY: Yes, it is. My L’Manberg-
TOMMY: Our L’Manberg.
QUACKITY: Our L’Manberg, that’s right.
GHOSTBUR: I’ve been reading- I was reading the history books, Quackity.
QUACKITY: Yeah.
GHOSTBUR: And do you think if Alivebur and you hadn’t gone head to head, this wouldn’t have happened?
QUACKITY: It would have happened, Wilbur. It would have happened, one way or another; this result was inevitable. You see, when I ran for president I saw a one-party system that wasn’t democratic at all, and one way or another; all of this would have happened. What’s important to keep in mind is that all of that is behind us, and all we need to look forward to is the future. If you think about it, Tommy, now all you have in your sights is Dream
TOMMY: You’re right, Big Q, you’re right, but I think-
QUACKITY: He cannot threaten our country anymore because he’s destroyed it. Very unfortunately, but it’s gone.
TOMMY: The thing that upsets me the most is that all this time, Technoblade told me I was betraying him, and you know what; I did. But he was our friend, we spent hours with him, building, taking people hostage, and just-
GHOSTBUR: Every book is gone.
TOMMY: He betrayed us, and he-
GHOSTBUR: I need to go and talk to Phil.
TOMMY: Okay. We were never really his friend, were we?
TECHNOBLADE shoots TUBBO and kills him using [Rocket Launcher].
TOMMY: He’s a monster.
QUACKITY: Yeah.
TOMMY: And he- but he-
QUACKITY: Tommy. Trust nobody. Trust nobody, Tommy, okay?
TOMMY: The thing is-
QUACKITY: Except for Tubbo. Trust nobody.
TOMMY: Yeah.
QUACKITY: Okay.
TOMMY: You’re right. He- people- the discs aren’t people. The discs were stolen from me, Big Q. They were mine, and they were stolen.
JACK MANIFOLD messages TECHNOBLADE
JACK MANIFOLD, messaging: you’ve made an enemy of me technoblade
JACK MANIFOLD, messaging: live in fear
TECHNOBLADE, messaging: i still have tnt
TECHNOBLADE, messaging: your house is right there
TOMMY: L’Manberg isn’t anyone’s, L’Manberg was its own; and me chasing the discs for which I put so much- I fucked up so bad, but they were mine. L’Manberg was ours, L’Manberg was people’s. It was ours. The problem with Techno is that he will never compromise. He will never ever let anyone else have what they want because unless it aligns with exactly what he wants; then we’ve betrayed him. It’s all gone, it’s all gone.
QUACKITY: Let this be a lesson, Tommy. Let it be a lesson, and just finish it off. Finish it off, Tommy.
TOMMY: We can’t let him win.
TOMMY: What do you mean?
QUACKITY: Yeah, let him win, Tommy. And we’re not gonna let him win. No matter how much it takes, how much fighting, guess what?
TOMMY: What I feared losing the most, I can still get back. You’re right.
TOMMY: What?
QUACKITY: Maybe use your discs as leverage, Tommy, but remember; you’re going after a man for what he’s done. Okay? You’re not going after a man for what he took from you, but for what he’s done. You said it yourself; it’s our L’Manberg. Use the discs as an excuse, Tommy, but-
TOMMY: He can’t pay for this.
QUACKITY: But go after Dream for means of justice, not the discs, okay?
TOMMY: You’re right. It’s just- he’s selfish, Big Q! Technoblade, he didn’t- he could have just, he didn’t have- my shit was stolen from me! He could have just let us do our government and let him not have government, he could have just- it’s just, he’s a selfish, selfish bastard.
QUACKITY: That’s true.
TOMMY: But… that’s behind us now. And, although Technoblade… might have been terrible-
GHOSTBUR: I take it back, Tommy. Tommy, I take it back.
TOMMY: Dream was the worst. What do you take back, Wilbur?
GHOSTBUR: I’m feeling- I’m burning in the rain right now, and I just… Tommy, I want you to bring me back to life.
TOMMY: What?
TOMMY is struck by lightning.
1:01:00
GHOSTBUR: Tommy
GHOSTBUR: Okay, I need to come see you.
TOMMY: Yeah?
TOMMY: I don’t know what Fundy’s deal was tonight. You know what, you’re right, Big Q. From now on, trust no one.
GHOSTBUR: I’m here. Have some blue, calm yourself, calm yourself.
TOMMY: Oh I need calm.
GHOSTBUR: Please, calm yourselves, calm yourselves.
TUBBO: Thank god Jack Manifold’s here, Jesus, what would we do without him?
JACK MANIFOLD: I just want to help out, guys.
TOMMY: What will we do without him and his silence?
QUACKITY: Does anyone have food?
GHOSTBUR: Tommy, I know- I know, I know how I said that I didn’t wanna be brought back to life because that would mean me, as Ghostbur, would stop existing. But I want you to bring me back to life.
TOMMY: Hey Wilbur
TOMMY: Really?
GHOSTBUR: And I know who can do it.
TOMMY: Well, you know what, Wilbur? Here’s what we do. Here’s what we do now, because there is- there are some last things, there is something we can do. ‘Cause we lost today. We lost L’Manberg, but we did not lose what we stand for. And although you won’t remember this-
TOMMY: Who?
GHOSTBUR: I lost friend.
TOMMY: Tubbo. I don’t know when, but soon - Dream said he’s gonna far away, away. This is what we do; the next few nights or however long we can over the next week or two, we prepare everything. Everything we’ve got because, Tubbo, this war - L’Manberg was forged - every war on this server, the conflicts that Dream started, was started with me and you. And you know what, Tubbo? It’s gonna end with me and you.
TUBBO: Okay.
TOMMY: And it has been for a long time,
GHOSTBUR: Can I have some blue?
TOMMY: I’ve only got six left.
GHOSTBUR: Just one, I just need one. Thank you.
TOMMY: But we’re gonna take him out. You hear me? Come with me, everyone.
1:04:46
TOMMY: Oh my god, shut up. Look.
GHOSTBUR: Goodbye friend.
GHOSTBUR: What?
TOMMY: Be careful, guys, there’s holes in the bridge.
GHOSTBUR: Together we as friends can take on any foe on the bridge.
QUACKITY: Yeah, I guess.
GHOSTBUR falls.
QUACKITY: Oh well, he’s-
1:05:29
TOMMY: Tubbo, this is the disc I listened to in exile. Where are you, Wilbur?
GHOSTBUR: I’m coming
TOMMY: Ah. Sorry.
TOMMY: Why are you coming?
GHOSTBUR: Here I come. Are you at your jukebox spot?
TOMMY: Yeah, I am.
GHOSTBUR: Okay. Hi!
TOMMY: Hi. Sit down.
GHOSTBUR: My skin is really hurting in this rain- oh! It’s not raining here
TOMMY: That is so weird- oh, when did that- I haven’t been here for so long.
1:06:39
TOMMY: Guys, is George asleep right now?
TUBBO: Yeah, yeah
QUACKITY: He fucking is! Argh! - Sorry. It brought me flashbacks, I’m sorry.
TOMMY: It doesn’t end here.
TOMMY plays the disc “chirp”.
GHOSTBUR: Chirp.
TUBBO: I like this version.
JACK MANIFOLD: I like this one.
TOMMY: Wow.
1:08:28
TOMMY: Everyone. Take your blue, Wilbur. I’ll ehm-
GHOSTBUR: I’ll leave.
TOMMY: I’ll see you ehm- we gotta fucking prepare.
TOMMY: I’ll see you all soon, okay? Tubbo?
TUBBO: Okay.
QUACKITY: Tommy.
TOMMY: Big Q. Yeah?
GHOSTBUR: Hello!
QUACKITY: Remember just one thing.
GHOSTBUR: Tommy! Do you remember the first time- oh, sorry, Quackity.
QUACKITY: Yeah. Tommy, you’re going after Dream and Dream has a lot of people on his side, so trust nobody, okay? That’s all I’m gonna tell you.
TOMMY: Yeah. What was that, Wilbur?
GHOSTBUR: Do you remember the first thing that I ever said to you, Tommy?
TOMMY: What?
GHOSTBUR: I came up to you, you were right here, and I came up to you and went “Hello, I’m Ghostbur!”.
TOMMY: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
GHOSTBUR: Hey! Goodbye, I’m Ghostbur!
TOMMY: Goodbye, Ghostbur.
GHOSTBUR: Bye, bye!
TOMMY: Goodbye everyone.
1:10:26
TOMMY: But listen to me, we’re going to get back the discs. And then I’m gonna fucking kill Dream.

Okay back to analysis. I want to talk about c!Tubbo not living in the mansion!
Like other than ooc reasons he didnt finish the mansion, character wise it always sort of made sense to me this never happened. Like The mansion represents settling. the mansion represents putting all your hopes in one basket. It represents a home, permanence. c!Tubbo has lived a life with nothing but impermanence. He's defined by losing, by being taken from, from having control over something but chastised for being weak or being a tyrant.
Building the mansion was after the Operation Dream Catcher began (which I believe was pre-mansion but post final disc confrontation? please correct me if wrong) and this prior era was representative that c!Tubbo did not think having a home or a family or independence were possible. He wrote the independence to the SMP to an empty audience, when c!Dream was imprisoned, even though c!Eret did not mind his independence. He wrote this and started a nuclear arsenal because he believed c!Dream would come back and would destroy the place even though it only be a couple buildings at the time. This era for c!Tubbo was marked by paranoia, fear, and confronting his fears with logic and reasoning instead of processing the fact that he just nearly died twice (via Doomsday and by c!Dream). And after all one of the nukes was largely implied to be a suicide bomb, also heavily implied to be for c!Tubbo to use against c!Dream/anyone that threatened him and the safety he tries to create for himself and others.
The mansion was healing though, especially after he invited those lost after the L'Manberg dissolution. The mansion was moving forward, settling, having roots again. And though the nukes and stuff were there, c!Tubbo also began to feel comfortable living again. He felt safe. But I always sort of interpreted why he never finished moving in is there was always something that reinforced that fear that in living, a home was something he was allowed to have without reservation.
There was the Egg, creeping through the server and at one point at Snowchester, there was the Syndicate making sure this was not a place to dismantle, there were people threatening his child, his friend died in the prison with a private memorial made in silence and denial, you name it.
And then, just one things are calmed down, the Egg is gone, c!Tommy is alive, things are quiet, his son is taken and his husband dies. I can't remember the exact quote, but in his one stream he says something about how he just can't live here anymore (pre-Michael being taken), implied to be because the mansion/home reminds him of c!Ranboo. And he goes into the new world portal, I believe and starts digging/building. He never finishes this build, ultimately winding back up in Snowchester. And he never once goes near the mansion. You notice he at this point barely mentions it. He lives in his old house, far and facing the opposite side to it. Because the mansion was what c!Ranboo bought for them, and their family, it is a place they forged together to live life in safety and in peace, especially because Snowchester was created so far from the mainlands for that very reason.
But the reminders hurt, of course. And even though he never built it with his own hands, his work is in the planks they helped c!Foolish get, it's in the care they had for each other to make a place that could be in danger, it's in the invite to c!Tommy several times to make sure he wasn't alone when they had all the space necessary for him, and it's in the first few rooms being theirs and Michael's representing a family that almost was before everything that went on leading up to c!Ranboo's death.

As Our World Caves In
==============================
Pairing: Wilbur Soot x GN!Reader
Warnings: deep angst, death, blood, stabbing, explosions
==============================
Part 2 here!
==============================
Tumblr media
==============================
Another scream left your lips as you were flown back by the impact of the wither hitting you, sending you down into a crater losing a lot of your health. You quickly drunk a health potion and started to climb out of the hole, trying to avoid the wither heads being shot at you. The screams of people you had once called your friends, some your enemies, rang in your ears.
How could Techno have betrayed you like this? He was almost like a brother to you, you two had bonded so well preparing for this war just for him to turn a blind eye at your pleads for him to help. Tommy had ran off after Techno, you losing sight of the two when one of the withers started to target you, Dream attacking you in the process.
A part of you wished Dream hadn’t just left you for dead, a part of you wished he had actually killed you. Not that you had much to live for anymore. The place you had once called home, fallen in love in, and built was destroyed. Your friends had betrayed you. All you had now was Wilbur...
Wilbur...
Where is Wilbur?
You looked around the chaos of L’Manberg, the town being torn apart by the withers that raged chaos on everyone and everything in its wake. You scrambled to what safe land you could find, eventually the land being blown up under your feet.
Calling for Wilbur, you cursed to yourself not finding him anywhere. Where had he gone off to, you were worried. You looked down at the netherstar hanging around your neck, the same netherstar that Wilbur had giving you the day he had beaten Dream and became president of L’Manberg.
Why couldn’t the days just stay that way? No wars, no withers, no chaos, just you and Wilbur running a beautiful nation. The days you and Wilbur would sit at the top of the towers, watch the sunset in each other’s arms while he would mutter words of admiration.
“Y/N?!” you slid down the hill quickly hearing your name, finding Phil standing at the top of a hill staring down at you. You picked yourself up quickly running over to the blonde man, hugging him tightly and looking him over for any wounds from the wither attack, “where is Wilbur?”
“I don’t know,” your breath was ragged, your hands shaking as you held onto Philza, “I’m scared he’s dead, he’s on his last life Phil! I can’t lose him!” You buried your face into Phil’s shoulder, tears running down your face while Phil tried to calm you the best he could and also find out where his middle son had disappeared to. Wherever Wilbur had gone however, Phil knew it wasn’t for good intentions.
You and Phil had exchanged letters for weeks leading up today, you rambling off in your letters how you were scared for Wilbur, he seemed to have been turning more insane day after day, disappearing for days at a time to somewhere. Phil was trying his best in the letters to give you comfort and to calm your mind but at the same time, he knew what his son could be capable with if he got pushed too far for too long.
==============================
There he sat, singing to himself quietly to the words on the wall. He sat in a small wooden chair, it creaking quietly at the slightest movement and a single lantern hanging on the ceiling above him. A small but powerful button in front of him as he stared at it, going to press it but something continuing to pull him away from the button.
Well, I've heard there was a special place, Where men could go and emancipate, The brutality and the tyranny of their rulers.
“There was a special place, where men could go and emancipate,” he rambled to himself, pulling at the sleeves of his brown trenchcoat, “and there definitely was that special place that once existed, it did.” 
Well, this place is real, we needn't fret, With Wilbur, Y/N, Tommy, Tubbo, fuck Eret It's a very big and not blown-up L'Manberg
His face fell into his hands, “even with Tubbo being in charge I don’t think it can exist again, it just can’t.” He sighed loudly to himself, his hand hovering above the button that would end everything, all of his work would be over, “it’s right there, if I’m ever gonna press it then I’m pressing it now. And...” His brows furrowed for a second, slamming his hand against the wall, “the thing that I built this nation for doesn’t exist anymore! The thing I worked towards! Our dream! It doesn’t exist anymore! It doesn’t exist-”
A voice cut him off, just down the long hallway that lead to the room hidden in a small mountain stood Phil, Y/N behind him covered in bruises and burns from the wither attack. Phil was the one to speak, Y/N being too weak in that moment to even look at Wilbur, the man they had once loved, “what are you doing?”
Silence, until Wilbur spoke up quietly, not bothering to turn around to face his father, “Phil?” Phil repeated his question, “we made Tubbo president, Schlatt is gone, we won Phil.”
Phil nodded, pulling Y/N to his side not wanting them to completely break down watching the man they loved go insane, “so... You are? In L’Manberg?”
Wilbur finally turned around to face his father, noticing Y/N by his side. Wilbur looked over them, taking a second to look at just the bruises that littered Y/N’s arms and the burns on their hands.
You choked back a sob staring at Wilbur, “Wil, please just stop. Come home, come to-”
“This is home, Y/N. What are you talking about?” Wilbur asked, his head turning to the side, unable to understand why Y/N was in such a state after they had just won. He thought this was what they wanted, that they wanted L’Manberg back.
Y/N’s eyes narrowed, “this?! A nation that is corrupted, people living in fear, how can you even see a future here?!” You broke free from Phil’s grasp, going over to Wilbur and grabbing him by his jacket, pulling him closely and showing him the wounds that littered your arms, legs, hands, and face, “Wilbur can’t you see that I’m in pain? The Wilbur I knew wouldn’t even allowed me to go into the battlefield!”
“Y/N...” Wilbur’s expression seemed to soften, his eyes seeming calmer and almost like he was about to break down into your arms at the slightest touch. Wilbur looked away from your pleading eyes, dodging your hand that tried to go to his face so you could make him look at you again, “alright, I will admit. Do you know what that button is?”
Y/N stayed silent, Phil nodding to Wilbur’s question, “I read your notes, I know you son. I know what that button will do.”
“Have you heard the of the song, the song on the wall.”
“My L’Manberg,” Y/N said quietly, your voice breaking as you held onto Wilbur.
“There was a special place,” Wilbur’s hands grabbed your own, prying them off of him, making you sit down in the chair in which Wilbur had once sat. Wilbur looked around the room, reading each word on the wall, “I was just saying that there was a special place that men could go but it’s not there anymore.”
“But it is there Wilbur,” you said, looking up at him from the chair in which you were now sat at, “we won it back, Tubbo is now the president, we can be happy.”
“I am so close to pressing that button!” Wilbur yelled, catching you off guard as he slammed his hands down on the wall again, staring at the button intently, “I have been here on days where I wasn’t even planning! I’ve been here like seven or eight times just wanting to press it.” Suddenly everything was making sense to Y/N, this is where Wilbur was sneaking off to at night, this is what Wilbur was marking down in his notebook that he wouldn’t allow you to read, “I’ve been here so many times-”
“And you just want to blow it all up, throw away everything you’ve worked so hard for,” Phil responded, Wilbur giving a small nod as he rested his forehead against the wall, “what you and everyone that has loved and cared about you have fought for.”
“I don’t even know if it works Phil, I tried once and someone had destroyed the redstone so who’s to say they haven’t destroyed it again,” Wilbur sighed, “I could press it and have it not work.”
“Wilbur please, just try to reconsider. We can make a new nation, with everything you stand for, it will be us in rule, no Schlatt, no Dream, just you, me, Tommy, Tubbo, and whoever else you want,” you reached for Wilbur’s hand, him pulling away from the action, “please Wil, I love you.”
Wilbur bit his lip, staring at the button, “you know Y/N, there was a saying, by a traitor.” Your heart sank to your stomach, you knew what was coming, “It was never meant to be.”
Just the small click made you go numb, he had done it, he had pressed the button.
And there it was, the giant hole in the wall showing all the work was destroyed, everything was gone. Everything, every memory, every laugh, it was all destroyed. Wilbur just smiled to himself, staring at the destruction of his nation. 
“My L’Manberg Phil,” Wilbur sighed staring at the destruction, the nation torn to pieces, “my unfinished symphony that will forever be unfinished! If I couldn’t have it than no one could!”
“Wilbur! You’re insane!” Y/N cried, staring at the destruction of their once beautiful home. 
Suddenly Wilbur grabbed Y/N by the arm, pulling something out of his pocket and giving it to Y/N, “kill me.”
Your breath hitched in your throat at Wilbur’s request, you couldn’t murder Wilbur, you loved him. Wilbur kept going on, begging you to stab him as you held the blade in your trembling fingers, tears streaming down your face.
“But-”
“Kill me Y/N!” Wilbur had yelled, grabbing your harsher and almost shaking you as you stared at him, tears blurring your vision, “everyone wants you to do it! Look at them, the traitors Y/N, they never cared about us. I want to die, please just do it!”
“I love you!” You yelled, the diamond enchanted blade trembling in your hands, Wilbur’s hands landing on top of your own and aiming the tip of the blade towards his heart.
“You just need to push,” Wilbur said, his voice calm for someone that was about to be murdered. Yet you couldn’t do it, you just couldn’t kill him after everything he has done for you. You loved Wilbur more than anyone, he was your entire world, now he wanted you to destroy your world like he just destroyed his home, “Y/N, look at me.”
You looked up at him, your vision blurred by the tears that streamed down your face. Wilbur grabbing your face in his hands, tilting your head slightly to the side and smashing his lips on your own in a passionate kiss. You clung to him, the sword dropping between you two as you held onto him, as if the entire world and chaos around both of you had paused and you two were the only ones around.
But suddenly Wilbur stopped, his hands dropping from behind your head, sinking to the floor. You tried to cling to his body the best you could but he still fell to the ground, you catching his head before it could hit the ground. You looked behind Wilbur to see Phil, tears in his eyes and a blood stained sword in his hands.
You held his head between your hands, watching the blood pour from his lips as he gave you a weak smile, “Y/N, love, you know how Dream said earlier that there was no traitor?” You nodded, holding onto Wilbur through his final moments, “he fucking lied.”
You held him tightly, watching his breathing stop and his heart that had once put you to sleep just by it’s beating had now froze. You clung to his body tightly, burying your face in his chest not bothering with the blood that would stain you. What point was there to care? The man you loved more than anything was dead, the man you had trusted had murdered him right in front of you.
“Get out,” you whispered quietly, but Phil still hearing you.
“Y/N I’m so sorry,” Phil sighed, taking his hat off to help pay his respects, “but he was dangerous, I had to put an end to him. He was suffering Y/N, he was a danger to you, to everyone here, and most importantly himself. I did want I believe is best.”
“You fucking murdered him!” You yelled, holding Wilbur’s lifeless face to your chest as you cried into his brown curls, “just get out.”
“Y/N...”
“Get the fuck out!”
Phil nodded sadly, dropping the blade from his hands that was stained in Wilbur’s blood and left the room through the hole left by the explosion, leaving you to cry.

my unpopular dsmp opinions, some of which genuinely should be popular
c!dream has crossed the moral event horizon and is irredeemable. once you cross that threshold, you're no longer a 'morally grey' character.
pre-recorded, heavily produced lore killed the lore. it was cool, sure, but you completely misunderstand the magic that the smp had when people watched it initially. the story is improv and that's how we like it. we can tell the cc's have lost interest in it, you can admit that to us, we'll understand, just stop lying to me.
c!dream's pov isn't necessary to understand his character or his motivations. if you've watched literally any c!primeboys stream he's basically spelled it out for you.
i don't understand how fans can dislike l'manberg or have claimed to be against it since the beginning. i honestly don't get it. what's so bad about wanting your own spot where you make your own rules and skirt accountability that has been used to technically oppress you before - and, before someone who never saw the earlier streams tries to disagree with this, the og l'manberg crew were imprisoned for shit that everyone else on the server was practically encouraged to do. also, what do you have against fun and happiness?
i think some of you forget that 'hybrids' aren't a thing, discounting c!ranboo. there's no piglin hybrids, c!techno is just a pig. there's no avian hybrids, c!phil is just a man with wings. there's no creeper hybrids, c!sam is just a creeper who's indecently exposed from the hips down. canonically there's no hybrids, and therefore no hybrid discrimination. people ran with that concept too much.
the loss and the fanon rewriting of the early lore up until pogtopia has ruined fandom perception of c!dream and the og l'manberg boys. c!tommy is more morally white than you think he is, and c!dream has always been a villain - he massacres and he kills and he destroys and he schemes and he always has broken his own rules. no wonder the boys wanted their own space after how they were treated.
i think ranboo oftentimes forgets his own lore. he brings stuff up that c!ranboo may have done, such as exploding the community house to frame c!tommy, holding onto Cat, and it goes absolutely nowhere. we've gotten all of these developments in his story but they have never been expanded on, and we're nowhere closer to figuring out his relationship to c!dream and what his other side is and honestly i see no hope that we'll be any closer to knowing even by the end of the year.
your characters don't all have to be morally grey for the story itself to be morally grey. this is fiction - some people can be nothing but evil and others can be nothing but good. being purely good or evil doesn't mean that you're one dimensional, either.
c!dream apologists have ruined c!dream for me. he's not a good person. how about you let me enjoy a villain for who he actually is, rather for than your percieved woobified ragdoll you pass off as c!dream.
the story was better when there was a central writer. it was brilliant back when wilbur wrote it to be that the environment drives the characters and the story, and it was really good in early s2 up until techno's execution day when it was more character driven. since then, the amount of autonomy people have over their characters without any central 'director', as it were, has been a detriment to the story overall. there needs to still be one overarching figure or director or writer.
not everyone is a main character. just because they have a pov, doesn't mean they're a main character. some characters have such little impact on the overall plot and describing everyone as a main character oversaturates the story and makes some characters seem more important than they are.
the egg lore had so much potential up until it didn't. all that built up threat that we were expecting and we still don't even know what the egg wants really other than just controlling people. does it hatch?
genuinely, if there's no major plot developments by the end of the year (and let's be honest, it's a very big possibility at this point), a few of the more prominent members of the server should do a podcast style stream talking about where the story would have gone, because at least then we would have gotten somewhat closer to a conclusion.
c!techno is a villain and an asshole and a bad person. he stops caring for people once their interests don't align with his or if they look at him funny. he makes meta-jokes about his own tyrannical and oppressive nature. stop taking that away from him. he's a bad person. cc!techno does a fabulous job portraying that in a comedic manner and the balancing of him being a deeply flawed person with deeply flawed morals and ideas with his comedically-portrayed stubbornness and lack of willingness to hear out opposing viewpoints is incredible. i want to like characters who are arseholes for the sake of being arseholes, and who refuse to take into account the hurt they've caused either out of self-righteousness or because they don't care, so let me. he's the anti-peacemaker, LET ME HIM ENJOY HIM FOR THAT!!!!
i think tommy and wilbur's way of doing lore is my favourite. relies heavily on improv, voice acting, sprite acting and facial expressions. really shows off the acting props and they pull off the emotional moments well for the insanity of the creative medium.
i'm not a fan of fan-music. i find songs about media i'm into difficult to listen to. coincidentally i'm also not a fan of shit like slam poetry or live music/musicals/pantomimes.
the death of l'manberg killed people's motivation to go on the server casually. i've talked about it more in depth before, but destroying what was a central, driving environment for the story killed momentum and motivation. imagine in an episode of she-ra, the princess alliance just nuke the freight zone and all of the members of the horde just have to deal with it. that would be shit.
until season 3 has some momentum, i'm counting the end of the smp as january 20th. that had a conclusion. season 3 has... whores, technoblade and tommyinnit. that's about it.
i wasn't a fan of the development of c!tubbo joining las nevadas. i preferred snowchester and the walled city conflict. give c!tubbo some backbone and some badassery. also tubbo where's the fucking nuke bro if you're shelving that plotline just tell us on like an alt stream what the plan was i beg
add like 2 or 3 new people to the server so that michael mcchill has someone to talk to and so that there's something always happening on the server. it gives the og's more motivation to return if things are happening in and out of canon and it'll help with momentum, and who knows? maybe they can write their own story/stories.
i really think that c!sam is an underrated character. he's multilayered, extremely interesting, and the dichotomy of his loyalty to his job and how far down the rabbithole that's taken him versus the genuine love he has for his friends that drives him to do what he does out of wanting to do right by them is brilliant. i don't talk about c!sam enough.
STOP HAVING FUCKING VILLAIN ARCS!!! I'M FUCKIN SICK OF IT!!!! i want to see more characters who see everyone else being absolute selfish, abhorrent cunts and go 'if nobody else is going to be a good person, i fucking will'. GIVE ME SOME MORAL WHITENESS!!! IT'S INTERESTING AND MORALLY GOOD CHARACTERS ARE FUN!!!
let tommyinnit build cobblestone towers. everyone bullied him too much for how ugly they were and the one he built outside of the prison looked genuinely really nice. it gives the boy something to do.
i'm a fan of the revive book and the canon lives system. don't ask me why, but i think it might just be the morbidity of it. it adds to c!dream's god complex persona, and i think the fragility of death itself is a really fun concept. not enough fan cc's have made connections with that and c!mumza, and it could make for cool fanfic.
ranboo your house is fucking ugly. it's an eyesore
c!niki, and to some extent now c!jack and c!fundy, are boring me and ruining my mood. i think c!jack is the closest to being an actually interesting sympathetic villain, mainly because nobody else seems to realise that c!niki is a villain. not a good one imo, but she's a villain. c!jack just has the problem of starting a new project over and over and over and over again and because of the slow in momentum for the primary cast, there hasn't been a lot of recent development for him.
not really a dream smp opinion, but if philza went full geordie accent, i would love it. i want him to, in canon, say shit like 'me n ye' instead of 'me and you' and use geordie dialect. i want him to be physically unintelligible because it's funny.
i don't really know what's up with c!foolish but i think he's a dumbass. he had a while to think about c!q's proposal and then changed his mind about joining the guy to admitted to letting him die just because. moron
i wish there was more c!eret lore. i wish he was an actual king with an actual kingdom and actual subjects and royal advisors. c!eret is far too fucking cool to be the king of nothing and nobody. fatten up the kingdom and the castle with people who work with c!eret, and don't just make it tyrannical and dictator-y to prove the point of the server's 'anarchists'. make it a healthy working environment, please - if you want moral greyness, have 'anarchists' who claim to care about the welfare of the server oppose a kingdom of happy people under a fair and just ruler because their ideologies clash.
the server needs more characters who oppose anarchy in more peaceful ways, or passively wish for systems to be a part of. i think a chaos vs order conflict ending only in mutual understanding where everyone understands that they should just leave each other alone would slot nicely into the story that's been created so far.
you need to have watched all of the previous arcs to understand the story. i've seen people argue that they don't need to know about earlier lore to understand the prison, but that's the equivalent of only watching the final season of pretty little liars and expecting to understand the context of what's going on.
some characters aren't that morally grey. some characters, take c!tommy for example, are definitely on the whiter side for the morality scale, he's just an asshole. he's abrasive and rude and a dickhead but he also doesn't agree with terrorism, he's patriotic, he strives for a better world, he's apologetic, but he's also a fucking BITCH.
you can add onto this if you want, but not if you're a c!dream apologist. nobody likes your opinions

go off about schlatt being a better president des we wanna hear your thoughts
OKAY SO
Wilbur was good for L'manburg?? Yes. He was a good founder, a good revolutionary, a good general
But, when the time came, Wilbur was a terrible president
He simply left. He wasn't there for a big part of time. Fundy and Tubbo had a civil war and Tommy needed to intervene because Wilbut wasn't there. When the country, when it happened, was only the 4 of them, this conflict could've teared L'manburg apart.
Then mr. Soot comes back and decided out of nowhere to run an election to enforce himself as the president because people wouldn't respect his authority. Of course they wouldn't, you weren't even there!
Quackity cames in with good policies that make even Fundy, Wilbur's son, drift away. This is a direct consequence of the Civil War, and Wilbur didn't know how to handle because he wasn't present.
Schlatt is a new face who showed what he was there for. He made people respect him by fear or admiration and aligned with someone who had good plans for the country, and actually planned to do it.
"But Schlatt tore down the walls!" You say. And yes, the conditions under the L'manberg Wall was teared down were terrible. It was traumatic since the wall was there since the beginning. It was a symbol of victory and resistence. A symbol of the past. L'manburg didn't need the walls if they weren't in war anymore, right?
And, sincerely, without the wall it looked so bigger and actually like a country instead of a van and its lawn. It connected with Niki's bakery, Jack's house, the farm, the white house, the podium, and even Eret's tower looked like it was part of it. Part of Manberg.
"He exiled Tommy and Wilbur!" You scream again. Look, I said Schlatt was a good president, not a good person. He followed his duty as the president to put the immediate menace to his presidency put of the country, and he did. If Wilbur and Tommy stayed, another civil war would have exploded instead of a revolution, and it would be even worse for L'manburg since it would directly affected the sense of nation and break it in half.
"Niki!!! The taxes!!" Yeah this was shitty as fuck, but, once again, look at this as the president. This girl shows direct confront with you and even your vice president doesn't want her to be jailed for treason, so you tax her in order to shut any tries to gather materials and plan a revolt. He did his duty as the president.
"He wanted to destroy everything from L'manburg!! He burned the flag!!" Nono. Fundy burned the flah. Schlatt actually liked the original one and wanted to keep it, Fundy burned to prove his loyalty to Schlatt, who took it fairly.
"What about the drug van?? He wanted to destroy it too!!" Van? Do you mean the pile of dirt Wilbur and Tommy left there? I love the drugvan, I really do. I have found memories of it, but Wilbur was the cause of its downfall. He said he wanted to rebuild it but left it behind to others fix. Like he did to Fundy, like he did to L'manburg. He never even showed interest to remake it, unlikely Tubbo and Eret. Schlatt wanted to take the dirt out and make something useful, a hotel. 'Yeah, the van is history, but right now its a pile of useless dirt'. Duty of president: Take care and improve your country.
Schlatt was also the caude of why Manburg turned out to be pretty and colorful. "But Tubbo decorated the festival!! He is the one responsible for it!!" Tubbo did a great job, yes, but under Schlatt's order. If Schlatt didn't want to make his country more active and pretty (even if the objective was kill Tubbo) Tubbo would never spontaneously do it.
"Tubbo's execution!?!!" Again, Schlatt was a shitty guy ok? But he was the president, and Tubbo was a traitor. It doesn't matter why Tubbo did it, under Manberg laws, his country, it made him a criminal and Schlatt actually had the right to kill Tubbo for treason, even if as horrifying as it was.
"He fought against Pogtopia" Yeah, he was the one defending. Pogtopia took the offensive and Wilbur decided to go to war. Schlatt was alone and he barely stood against Pogtopia. That war was Pogtopia vs Dream SMP, since Manburg was getting drunk alone in a dirty drug van.
Schlatt grew and became a good president, but his actions to keep this rank turned people against him because of the person he was, not because of the president he turned out to be. He planted L'mantree, which ended up being a symbol of hope. He opened the borders to whoever wanted to join. He gave life back to Manberg and made possible to have the festival and Party Island. At first, he saw the potential his cabinet with Quackity, Tubbo and Fundy could have.
This man needed the help os his people to still be able to do the changes that he did, but when no one was there, he crumbled down and showed he was just a man that once had a dream, that only got twisted and twisted until the final scenes of Manberg and the murders and pain were left. He died because of his own mistakes, taking the country he fought to make better with him.

Fundy does not have a good life /rp
(Dream and Fundy have a relationship here but the wedding isn't part of it)
Let's start with Sally, his mother - she could be dead, running way or in a bucket somewhere, Wilbur doesn't know - was a really important part of his life, he remembers her fondly but don't have her by his side anymore
- Almost all of his pets got killed in the Pet War -
Wilbur, his father never took him seriously, and was treated as a child. Wilbur crearly loved and cared more about Tommy and Tubbo - wich are Wilbur's brothers, or, Fundy's uncles -, he was much closer to them, while Fundy had to watch in the sidelines. When Fundy tried to get elected, Wilbur still didn't care enough
When Wilbur and Tommy were exiled by Jschlatt, Wilbur didn't look back to his son, he ran, not caring about his child
Then Fundy had to act loyal to Jschlatt to not get killed and be a spy, and finally get his father recognition, even If that meant betraying his father trust. - Eret knew that the acts were fake - Fundy still got attached to Jschlatt because he was a figure of power that kinda saw him and asked for his help
While in exile, Wilbur cared about 2 people in Manburg, Niki and Tubbo. Not Fundy, he cared about his friend and the boy he got from the street, but not the son that he raised inside the walls of L'manberg with the promise of protecting him
Then Fundy goes to Pogtopia to show his work as a spy - While caged - that in the end they didn't even use or care about
The battle came, and Jschlatt looks him in the eye and says that Fundy isn't a real man - You take that as you will, for me i'm just happy that someone saw him - before dying, now the he got attached to was gone
The moment of decision came, Wilbur didn't even think twice, and gave the land to Tommy and then Tubbo, again choosing these two over Fundy
Wilbur destroys L'manberg, what about the land that was supposed to protect his Little Champion?
The first time Fundy sees his grandpa, it's him killing his father, and that should leave a scar
Technoblade - Fundy's uncle and also the guy that kills Orphans - starts to destroy L'manberg, wich is the only thing that Fundy has left
Philza, his grandpa, kinda ignores him for a while
Eret comes to adopt Fundy - You could argue that It was just because of Dream - but it never became reality, Fundy is still an orphan and constantly gets picked for it
Philza finally bond with Fundy, but it's forgotten so he can focus on his child Technoblade - Making Technoblade a threat to Fundy
Ghostbur is there, and is just stressful, he acts like he was always there for Fundy, constantly wants attention but never wants to talk about what really is important and how much he hurts Fundy
Fundy sees Dream talking about George - And everyone knows he could be cheating - and apologise with a simple kiss and some flowers. Dream then attacks his land just because George's house was destroyed by Fundy's impulsive uncle, his fiancé doesn't care about him, nobody in the server sees their relationship as serious, him and Dream are never in the same side of the war
Tommy is exiled, Ghostbur goes with him, Philza is still talking more with Technoblade, Fundy is still getting picked on for being Orphan, Technoblade is still out there
He gets tired of people constantly stealing his things and so decides to go way to a new land - Spot were Dream got George to go for his birthday - with Ranboo and Niki - Ranboo isn't tied with any land, Niki has her secret city to scape
He then tries to kill Technoblade with his army, and again, he's not the protagonist of the moment
He has every right to be mad at his family
Wilbur picked him last all his life, didn't recognize him, doesn't talk about his mother, and destroyed his home
Technoblade destroyed his home while fighting with his uncle, and for a long time Fundy was scared of him
I don't think Fundy hates Tommy or Tubbo - He could be petty about It, since his father chose both of them, always - he works with Tubbo and gifts Tommy while in exile
Philza was there for him for a while, then he was teaming with Technoblade and helping him (I think their relationship is very wholesome, even If i don't like the whole being neutral thing)
So Fundy has the right to be mad, he was always in the sidelines, sometimes you need to kill the people that don't care about you and that's okay /j/j

(I'm not going to include the first part of this scene cause it doesn't work well and I can't fix it) (essentially, Phil and Tommy run into each other and get into a small argument. Tommy only really gets set off when Phil calls him selfish for "betraying" Technoblade).
"Don't act like Techno is some saint! He didn't exactly treat me perfectly either," Tommy spewed out.
Phil blinked softly at Tommy's quick change in tone before he recovered from his surprise. He scoffed at him, "He gave you everything you needed. He spent months getting materials to help you fight a war where you used him as nothing but a weapon. You betrayed him."
"We didn't betray him! He knew from the minute he arrived that we were going to uphold a government and he didn't fight that until we won. We never asked him for the materials, he did that on his own."
"He risked his life helping you, and you threw him out as soon as it was convenient."
Tommy glared, hand gripping his sword's handle. "Did he ever tell you about what happened after the festival? How Wilbur built a pit in Pogtopia and Technoblade almost killed me during some stupid fight because I was upset that he murdered my best friend?" Phil didn't say anything, just knit his eyebrows. "What about all the times where he stood off to the side and watched while Wilbur screamed about blowing everything up? What about how he forced me to deal with my brother tell me that everyone was going to abandon us and how Tubbo, and Niki, and Fundy, and every last person I knew hated us? How he never stepped in? He acts upset that Wilbur's dead but didn't even attempt to help me talk Wilbur out of what he did. He wants to complain about how we didn't support him during the festival when he never once did the same back then."
"Technoblade probably had his reasons," Phil told him, quietly.
"And I don't? You think I'd fight wars and lose lives and watch all my friends leave if I didn't have a reason? Just admit it Phil, Technoblade has always been your favorite and I can never change that."
Phil shook his head. "I came here to help you and Wilbur, I was forced to leave after your nation put me under house arrest and tried to kill my son."
"You finally come here, after years of me going through war after war and being abused and tortured- and the first thing you do is kill the one person who cared about me. You expect me to thank you for that? I had been trying for a year to help him, on my own, and you decide that it's better to just stab him because he fucked up? He needed help, not a sword to the chest!" Phil looked away from his youngest, choosing to stare at the building behind him instead.
"Tommy-" he started with a sigh.
"No, don't even start! You killed my brother and then ran off. You choose Technoblade, once again. What about me? Why didn't I get any help? You took away the most important thing to me then ignored me for a year straight. You didn't visit once while I was in exile, you left me alone with some green bastard who fucking- who..." he stopped, eyes welling up. He quickly changed what he was going to say. "Then you destroy my only home. L'manburg was more than just a government! It was the only place I ever felt safe, and I'll never have that again. You took everything from me- and haven't even apologized once for it."
There was a heavy silence. Tommy was rubbing his eyes every few seconds, refusing to let a single tear fall.
"Tommy, you all had to learn a lesson. Destroying that place was the only way to teach it." Tommy laughed humorlessly, shaking his head.
"You know how many times I've heard that I needed to 'learn a lesson'? I've been taught the same one dozens of times before. I was taught a fucking lesson when Eret betrayed us and let us all die, when Schlatt exiled me, when people I trusted shot at us and I had to watch my brother lose his second life, when Wilbur screamed at me for hours on end in Pogtopia, when Technoblde executed Tubbo, when Wilbur blew up our nation, when Technoblade set withers on me, when I watched you kill Wilbur, when Tubbo exiled me, when my nation called me selfish, when nobody visited me for months straight, when Dream blew up my armour every week, when nobody showed up to my party, when I spent days on a bridge to Logstedshire that not a single person used, when Dream blew up Logstedshire and everything I'd worked for, when Dream clipped my wings, when you abandoned me, when Niki told me I didn't deserve to be trusted, when Fundy and Niki watched L'manberg fall and left us to die, when Niki burned down the tree, when you invited Ranboo to live with you and left me homeless.
"When I would spent every fucking night hoping that maybe someone would figure out that violence and punishment isn't the right way to teach me a lesson and they never did. Do you know how many times I've had to fight wars against people who I cared about? How many times people just given up on me the second I made a mistake? You all want to blame me and Tubbo for this, but we were the teenagers who were forced to take care of a nation because everybody else abandoned it."
Tommy wiped his eyes again, tears already long since fallen. Phil couldn't do anything but stare at him. Tommy looked at him expectantly. Like he wanted an apology. One that Phil would never give.
Tommy ignored the small crowd and the quickly growing anxiety that came when he thought about what he'd said and the fact that he was crying in front of that many people.
A minute passed before Tommy gave up any hope that he would get an apology or even an acknowledgement of how he had been treated. "You want to act like you saved me when you took me in, but I'd be better off dead than having lived like this." He spit out before he turned towards his old house and sped off in that direction.
He could already feel the heavy panic hitting him, in the way that his chest started hurting and his hands began shaking. He just needed to make it there.
Phil stood still before looking at the people around him- close enough to hear them but not enough to be payed attention to. Eret, Tubbo, Niki, Fundy, Sapnap, Punz, Sam, and Quackity. He only stayed for a few seconds before he made his way to the portal.

Loss of a Hero
Hi, Admin Anesthesia here :). I’m so sad. Still crying over Tommy. Based on this. There's also a reference to the wonderful song letter to a dead friend by Precious Jewel Amor.
——————–
Summary: After Dream kills Tommy, Sam tells everyone. How will all of them deal with the loss of a hero?
Trigger Warnings: Implied Suicide, Spoilers, Death
Content Warnings: Swearing
——————–
Sam was pacing around the prison area as he tried to look for the woman.
“Sam...you okay?” Puffy asked as she appeared behind him with worried eyes.
Sam jumped before sighing and nodding, “Puffy...I’m sorry.”
“What are you sorry about?”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” He continued to mutter.
“Sam, what happened?”
“I failed him. I promised that I’d protect him and I didn’t. I waved off the idea because I didn’t think he was capable.”
“Sam?” Puffy asked, fearing the worst.
“He’s dead, Puffy. Dream killed him because I didn’t want to kill Dream.” Sam couldn’t look Puffy in the eyes, “I’m sorry...I know I promised I’d protect him.”
“Tommy?” Puffy’s voice was a whisper, not wanting to confirm the truth.
Sam’s little nod made Puffy’s heart sink. “Oh...Sam, you couldn’t have known.”
“But I did. I could’ve stopped it.” Sam finally faced Puffy, tears streaming down his face, “I’m sorry, Puffy. He was just a kid.”
“I know, I know,” Puffy replied, pulling Sam into a hug as her tears started to come down as well.
-----------------
Sapnap first heard about Tommy’s death when he was talking with Quackity.
“Hey, babe.” Sapnap smiled, kissing the top of Quackity’s head. He thought Quackity was praying because Quackity was kneeling down, but upon closer inspection, he knew that wasn’t the case.
“Hey, Sapnap.” Quackity gave a small smile to his fiance as he looked up at him. Quackity’s face was strewn with tears.
“What’s wrong?” Sapnap’s face immediately melted into worry, “Who hurt you? I can-”
“Tommy died.”
“Wait...what?” Sapnap’s worry turned into denial, “It can’t be. Dream didn’t have any weapons. Tommy could easily fight back.”
“He was just a child. He was my friend.”
“He...couldn’t have died. Tell me you’re joking….please.”
“Sam told us this morning. Dream beat him to death. That sick fuck even looked happy about it.”
Sapnap didn’t like Tommy that well, but the few times they got along, Tommy was a good teammate. He was just a kid. He had so much to experience still.
Tommy reminded him a lot of his younger self. Aspiring to be more than fate wrote him. So when he felt something roll down his cheek, he knew he was grieving for the boy that could’ve been so much more. The boy who would have achieved a lot more than Sapnap did.
“I have to go do something.” Sapnap muttered as he walked away, “Dream...what did you do? I told you not to do anything bad, and here you are, wishing for your death.”
-----------------
Tubbo didn’t believe that Tommy was dead. Why should he?
Sam had told Tubbo that he was alive and well the day before. The last time he thought Tommy was dead, he ended up being alive and well. Sam was probably just trolling with him. Besides...
Dream didn’t have the balls to do this.
Tubbo, at least, thought this until he had gotten Tommy’s compass from Sam.
“I think Tommy would’ve wanted you to have this,” Sam whispered as he gave the compass to Tubbo.
Tubbo’s smile faded as he pulled out his own. The compass was spinning nonstop and it didn’t land on Tommy’s anymore. It was broken.
“Sam...Sam...why is it doing that?”
“Doing what, Tubbo?”
“Ghostbur gave it to me. He said that it pointed to Tommy’s compass. Theoretically, it should still work, right?” Tubbo asked, “Tommy’s not dead. He isn’t! How could he be? Dream’s never defeated him before.”
“Tubbo... I don’t know if you want me to answer that.” Sam looked regretful.
“Please...tell me.”
“They were bound to your souls. Once one of you die, it breaks because it has nothing to bound to anymore.”
Then a heavy feeling was placed on his shoulders as he realized that his best friend was gone. And he never got to say goodbye to him.
He was too busy trying to compete against the Big Innit Hotel and goofing off with Ranboo that….he didn’t pay enough attention to Tommy.
Tommy told him that he was going to face his abuser one last time. Tubbo was so proud of him. Sam told him that Tommy was stuck in the prison with Dream. That was fine, Tubbo knew that Tommy could fight through it. After all, it was only one week.
Tubbo thought that Sam was joking when he said that Tommy was dead.
“Sam….I never got to say goodbye to him.” Tubbo whispered as he crumbled to the ground, looking at his broken compasses.
“I know.” Sam sighed, “I’m so sorry. It’s all my fault. I should’ve protected him from Dream. I’m sorry.”
Why wasn’t he crying? His best friend just died. Did he not care enough? Why did he feel so insensitive?
“Tubbo?” Sam asked as he knelt down beside the shaking boy.
“Sam, why am I not crying? He was my best friend and I don’t even care about it. Why am I not crying?”
“Tubbo, you don’t have to cry to show that you’re grieving. You’re just a boy still. Just...come here.”
Sam pulled him into a hug and that’s when Tubbo felt his tears come out.
“He’s gone. I was supposed to be there for him when he got out. And he’s gone.”
“He died protecting you.”
“WHAT?” Tubbo asked, standing up.
“Dream threatened Tommy that he’d kill you if he got out, and Tommy died to his hands, telling him that he’d never lay a hand on you.”
Tubbo felt everything rush to his head. It was all too much. How could he? How could Dream?
He felt angry. He needed to get his revenge. So he pulled himself together and started walking back to his base.
“Tubbo, where are you going?”
Tubbo smiled, “I’m going to finish what Tommy started. I’m going to make Dream lose his last life.”
“Tubbo-”
“Sam, he killed my best friend. He manipulated me. I’m tired of playing his games. It’s time I made the rules.”
Sam sighed and before Tubbo could leave, Sam just handed him the compasses. “Keep them safe. After all, Tommy’s compass still works, right?”
Tubbo sighed, “Right.”
-----------------
Quackity was sitting on the signature bench and he had Wilbur’s guitar in hand. He guessed that it was about as a good time as any to sing for the soul they had just lost. The strums of the guitar echoed throughout the entire Dream SMP area and soon, people were gathering around him.
“I heard there was a special place, where men could go and emancipate the brutality and tyranny of their rulers. Well, this place is real you needn’t fret, with Wilbur, Tommy, Tubbo, and Eret. It's a very big and a little bit blown up L’Manberg.”
“My L’manberg. My L'Manberg. My L'Manberg. My L'Manberg.” Tubbo started to sing, sitting down next to Quackity as he started to sing with him.
“For freedom and for liberty, our nation sought to build on these, a victory for all under democracy. Well, the darkness came, and then it went, we built a home and watched it sink, and there from rubble, there emerged L’Manberg.” Quackity sang at the same time that Tubbo had sung the verse of the ad-libbed on the day L’manberg was destroyed.
They both laughed it off as they started to sing again.
“My L’manberg. My L'Manberg. My L'Manberg. My L'Manberg.”
Tubbo had to stop because he had started to cry. “Tommy….”
Quackity just continued. He knew that Tubbo wanted him to continue the symphony. Tommy would’ve liked to hear it.
“With bloodied hands and weakened knees, our people rose like the phoenix, our empty fields and canals ‘round L’Mantree. With sweat and tears we armed our ranks, we laid foundations in our land, and from every lips fro here up to infinity.” Quackity looked at Tubbo to make sure he was okay.
Tubbo just nodded as he continued to wipe away the endless stream of tears.
And as they came to the final verse, everyone around them started to sing with them.
“We sing L’Manberg. We sing L’Manberg. We sing L’Manberg. To our L’Manberg.”
As soon as the song was done, everyone went to hug Tubbo, grief surrounding all of them.
No one thought that Tommy would be gone so soon, especially Tubbo. The one person Tommy cared about more than the discs.
-----------------
“Ranboo….what’s wrong?” Technoblade had asked as soon as he saw Ranboo’s defeated face. “Who hurt you? Was it BBH again? I can-”
“No...nothing like that.” Ranboo shrugged it off, “It’s just….Sam told me that Tommy died today.”
Technoblade snorted, raising an eyebrow, “You know he’s probably joking, right?”
“I don’t think he is.” Ranboo whispered, “Sam told me to give this to you.”
Techno raised an eyebrow before Ranboo dropped something small into Techno’s hand. Something splattered with blood.
“It can’t be.” Techno’s voice was barely a whisper.
No...that was the friendship emerald Phil had given Tommy. Techno had seen Tommy wear it as an earring during his exile time period. Techno knew that Tommy still wore it. There would be no reason for him to lose it, and more importantly, lose it with blood splattered on it.
“I’m sorry, Techno.”
Techno felt a heavy weight on his shoulders. He knew that Tommy wasn’t ready to go just yet. Techno never got to say he was sorry for betraying the boy.
“Why are you sorry?” Techno laughed, “It wasn’t you that killed him, was it?”
“He was like a brother to you, right?”
“Tommy meant nothing to me.” Techno replied coldly as he sighed, “But I’m sorry for your loss, Ranboo. I know that Tommy was your first friend.”
Ranboo just broke down, “I never even got to say goodbye to him. There were so many things I wanted to say to him. Tubbo and I were going to compete with him with our hotel. And-”
Ranboo was caught off guard by a pair of arms wrapping around him. Technoblade was hugging him.
“He meant a lot to me too,” Techno whispered as Ranboo wrapped his arms around Techno as well.
They stood there in silence, just hugging each other for the longest time until finally, Ranboo separated. “Techno...I have something to admit.”
“Your enderwalk state was the one to trap Tommy in the prison? I know.” Techno sighed, “But that’s not you. And you can make it up by coming with me and helping me kill the green Teletubby.”
Ranboo smiled as he took the sword Techno passed him, “Let’s do this.”
-----------------
“Niki, I don’t think I want to do this plan anymore.” Jack sighed as soon as he saw Niki approaching him with plans to try and kill Tommy.
“Why not? Are you really backing out?”
“Niki, look at us. We were blaming a child for something that he’s already trying to fix. You’re blaming him for Wilbur’s death, but you know just as well as me that Wilbur was not in his right mind. He chose to die at the hands of his father.”
“Jack, where is this coming from?” Niki scoffed.
“Dream killed Tommy today. Beaten to death by his abuser in a tight space, according to Sam. It got me thinking.”
“Wait...what? Tommy’s dead.”
“Niki, you never wanted Tommy to be dead, did you? You just needed someone to blame while you were grieving.”
“No, no, no, no, no, he can’t die. We still have plans to make. We were supposed to make his death happy. He was supposed to see Wilbur and face his consequences. What do you mean Dream did it? That could’ve been the worst way for him to die.”
“Niki, we just wanted to feel important to him again. He ignored us, so we forced ourselves into his story. Look back…”
“Wilbur...did choose to die, didn’t he? It wasn’t Tommy’s fault. Oh god…” Niki sobbed, “I tried to kill him. And I couldn’t focus on having fun with him. Now he’s dead.”
Jack nodded, “Me too…”
Niki just went to hug Jack, “How can I ever forgive myself?”
“Time,” Jack whispered, knowing fully well that he needed to forgive himself too.
But for now, they felt ashamed of their actions and thoughts leading up to Tommy’s death.
“At least Dream did it instead of us,” Niki whispered. “That way, we saw clearly before we made the mistake.”
“He was just a kid, Niki.”
“I know...Tommy, we’re sorry.”
-----------------
“Tubbo...did Sam tell you?” Ranboo asked as soon as he entered the Bee N Boo hotel.
Tubbo nodded, holding up the broken compass he was looking at. “Please tell me we’re just in a dream and that Tommy is still in the prison alive, waiting for Sam to let him go.”
“I’m sorry, Tubbo.”
Tubbo slumped down, “I never even got to say goodbye to him. We thought it was over when we put Dream in jail. Sam told me he was still wearing his compass when Sam went into the cell.”
“He was my first friend.” Ranboo whispered, “Of course, we immediately got into a war crime, but he was still nice to me. I’m sorry.”
Tubbo just stood up, “Can we go and get some more blocks to finish the hotel? I don’t want to think about it.”
“Sure...come on.” Ranboo gave a small smile, “We can even go and get some red and white dye to have a memorial for Tommy in the hotel.”
“That sounds nice,” Tubbo mumbled as he allowed Ranboo to pull him towards the flower field.
-----------------
“Hey...what’s up with you two? Why so gloomy today?”
Ranboo looked up at Phil, only holding out something red.
Phil raised an eyebrow as he took it, only to realize it was the bandana he gave Tommy a long time ago.
“You guys are fucking with me, right?”
Techno shook his head as he took out Tommy’s friendship emerald, “Dream killed him in prison.”
Everything came crashing down at that point. “No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, he can’t be dead. Tommy’s the main character. He was supposed to show me the hotel after he got out of prison. I promised myself that I’d be a better father for him and that I would move on from Wilbur’s death. What do you mean that he’s dead?”
“I’m sorry, Phil. I know how much Tommy meant to you.” Techno sighed, putting a hand on Phil’s shoulder. “We’ll leave you alone to think about this.”
“Thank you, Techno.” Phil sighed.
Before Ranboo could leave though, Phil asked, “Did Tommy ever tell you anything about me?”
“He told me once that he missed the dad that was there for him. He said he knew you were getting better and still healing, as was he, but he was tired of you leaning on his misery in order to cope. He just wanted to have a dad again.”
With that, Ranboo left the room, leaving Phil to collapse on the ground, caving in to the voices that were telling him that he was a bad father.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” Phil sobbed, “I failed you, Tommy, and it’s all my fault.”
-----------------
Tommy opened his eyes to see that he was somewhere. And nowhere at the same time. He didn’t know where he was.
“Tommy?”
He heard Wilbur and he turned around to see his brother. “Wilbur, where are we?”
“Oh, Tommy, when I meant see you soon, I didn’t mean this soon.” Wilbur pulled Tommy into a hug, “You’re in the afterlife.”
“That son of a bitch did it, huh?” Schlatt snorted, “I can’t believe he did it.”
“Schlatt-”
“Don’t worry, I’m not going to hurt you.” Schlatt rolled his eyes, “But I can’t believe that Dream killed you. To prove that the book is real.”
“Is it real?” Tommy asked.
“Nah, I’m a drunk alcoholic. How the fuck am I supposed to get a necromancy book? No...I gave him something else.”
“What?”
“A script.”
“A script?”
“Our script. See, Tommy, I was supposed to be the idiot, but I managed to be one step ahead of Pogtopia. Because I knew what was going to happen. So I gave the script to Dream in order for him to win. I knew I would die in the end and that you would get a happy ending. So I needed you to continue losing. So he became self-aware. He kept causing problems and blowing things out of proportion so that there would still be a story. Without one, he wouldn’t exist. He needed you to continue doing stuff. So in the end, he knew it was him or you. And he decided to choose you. To keep the story going for a bit longer.”
“Schlatt, you sick fucker. You never told me that.” Wilbur hissed at Schlatt.
“Well, there was no reason to. We might as well become friends again in the afterlife. There’s nothing to do here. But-”
“Tommy, we’re going to get you back and you’re going to kill that son of a bitch because it isn’t your time to die.”
“How though?”
“By the same way Dream convinced you to let him live. We’re going to guide the people to find a necromancy book and we’re going to bring you back to life.”
“Wilbur, what about you? What if I just like being with my brother again?”
“You have forever to talk to me when you die, but you still have unfinished business with the rest of the Dream SMP.”
Tommy smiled, hugging Wilbur, “Okay...let’s do this then.”
They were going to help the others revive Tommy.
-----------------
Tubbo walked to Tommy’s house. Dozens of flowers laid across the doorway and items of value were on the ground for Tommy. Tubbo was the last person to not put something there.
“Hi Tommy.” Tubbo gave a small smile, “I’m sorry it took me so long to visit your house. Everyone seemed to already give you so many flowers. I don’t know if you’d like more, but I picked them out for you.”
He knelt down at the doorway, placing the flowers.
“I also got you some of the things I’ve kept. Like blue premium bonds, blaze powder flavor therapy, signs from our pranks, swords I grinded for, blocks from my house, and-”
Tubbo couldn’t continue as he held back a sob.
“I miss you so much, Tommy. Why did you have to go?”
He put the items down before walking towards the bench. It felt empty next to him.
Opening his ender chest, he found one of Tommy’s discs in there. He put it into the jukebox next to him as a familiar tune came up.
When Tommy and Tubbo had reunited, Tubbo had shown Tommy his letter he wrote for his best friend he presumed dead.
Tubbo took out the crumpled paper from his pocket.
“I miss you. The memories flashed back tonight. I want to tell you, but I’m sure you’re alright. I can’t move on from the pain and the loss that I gave you. My world is silent right now. I finally live in peace, but it seems like everyone’s been fooling me. I thought that I was fine, but now that you’re gone, I wish I had more time. Don’t you remember you call me your Tubbo? I once assured you, together we’ll grow, but now I’m alone and I don’t know what to do. Everything just leads back to you. I miss you as I sit by the horizon myself. It’s not true, I won’t forget the good times we shared. You told me it was us against the world and I’m sorry I have left you all injured and hurt. My world is silent right now. Don’t you remember I call you my Tommy? I used to tell you that I’ll never leave, but now that I did, and I don’t know what to do. I’m sure everything will lead back to you.” Tubbo read out loud, the tears dropping from his face onto the paper.
And for some reason, he couldn’t stop reading the last sentence. It made sense.
“Everything will lead back to you. Everything will lead back to you.” Tubbo sobbed. Everything he had done was for the good of Tommy or L’manberg. He just wanted to be back with his best friend again.
“Sincerely yours, Your Tubbo.” Tubbo whispered as the song ended and he put everything back into his ender chest.
He felt exhaustion come over him and he laid down on the bench, his tears still flowing down his face. Sleep came over him soon as he cried himself to sleep.
Tommy was gone for real this time and Tubbo couldn’t do anything to reverse it.

Content warnings: mentions of death, explosions, trauma aftermath
Time passes slowly when you're waiting.
Tommy barely notices it. The air is warm, far too warm for a November night, the smell of gunpowder and smoke still lingering almost mockingly. A red sky hangs above his head, laced with silver clouds. The explosions have long stopped. Someone had sent Tommy a message a while ago saying that a few people were attempting to extract the remaining TNT from under L'manberg, which had been a bit of a mess. The boy hasn't replied. He's waiting still. Waiting for something to happen.
The red of the sky has turned to a deep navy by the time he sees anyone. It's not the person he wants to see. "I brought food," says Tubbo softly, plopping down next to his friend on the grassy hill. He's still half in netherite armour, wearing his trademark green shirt underneath. His hair's a mess from the helmet he's spent the day wearing. Normally, Tommy would joke about it. Today, he doesn't care enough to. "Here - bread. Niki made it, told me to bring it to you. She said she tried talking to you earlier, but you, uh, didn't respond."
Tommy doesn't remember that. His reaction time is slow, so Tubbo has to wait a moment with his arm outstretched before Tommy takes the bread piece from his hand and holds it tight without eating it. It's gone cold in the time it took Tubbo to get here. He stares at it with unfocused eyes, feeling ragged breaths shake his chest still, hours after the fighting has stopped and the silence has taken over the server like a crushing weight. Everything cell in his body is screaming at him to eat or sleep or do something, anything, that would take the pain away. But he won't. He waits. He can't sleep until the wait is over.
"Tommy." Tubbo's voice is so far away. Tommy feels a hand on his arm, shaking him gently, bringing him back down to earth for a moment. His fingers have regained some feeling again, and he flexes them for proof. A small sigh of relief escapes his friend at the movement. "There you go, there you go, uh… crap. Can you look at me? Tommy? Tommy, mate, can you look at me real quick?"
A short pause, and he manages to glance up and meet Tubbo's eyes. Dark brown, just like… dark brown, but colder than usual, sadder, dimmer. War takes a lot out of someone, it seems, and they've been at this for far too long, pouring far too much of themselves into battles and bloodshed. Tommy numbly wonders if he looks as shit as he feels. As if reading his mind, Tubbo starts talking again, still just as softly, like he's afraid he'll scare Tommy away. "You don't look too well, man. You should eat that bread. I can… I have some bottles, I can go down and get water, too. Do you want me to do that, Tommy? Water?"
Don't baby me, Tommy thinks, but can't summon the energy to speak. He's barely even still in the waking world, only managing to avoid falling asleep by pinching his arms every few minutes and hunching over uncomfortably on the dirt, staring. Waiting. Waiting for the familiar respawn sound that will signify his brother's return.
"I'm sorry," Tubbo whispers. He's moved closer to Tommy, half supporting him as the younger boy practically sags against him, so tired, so fucking tired. An arm wraps around Tommy's shoulder. The contact is nice. "Tommy… please come back to L'manberg. Mobs have started spawning, and you're in no condition to defend yourself."
Tommy shakes his head, just slightly, Tubbo's hair tickling his cheek. "'S fine," he says, and his voice is so hoarse and cracked with hours of disuse that he has to take a moment to cough into his arm from the effort of forming words. "'M right next to spawn anyway. M'bed was destroyed. So was Wilbur's. He'll be here any minute."
He feels Tubbo stiffen, a small hiss escaping through his teeth. The older boy shifts uncomfortably. Tommy doesn't want to look at his face. "Tommy, I…" Tubbo starts, then sighs again and leans forward to rest his forehead on his knees. "Wilbur… he isn't gonna -"
"Don't," Tommy rasps, suddenly shaking his head so fiercely that his vision blurs and bile rises in his throat. "Don't fucking say it. Don't."
"Ok, ok, ok," Tubbo says hurriedly over Tommy's outburst. His hand moves round on the younger boy's shoulders in a circular pattern, the touch comforting, reminding him. "I won't talk if you don't want. Or I will if you do. Just… anything. Anything you need right now, I'll try my best for you."
Pity, pity, pity. Tommy doesn't need his pity. But Tubbo is a friend, and Tubbo is the one person right now that he wants to see who's here, who isn't dead or a traitor or a murderer. So he leans against the other boy, blinking tears from his eyes, because even in this state he doesn't want to cry in front of anyone else, not ever. "Stay w'me," he murmurs, and oh, if he doesn't sound pathetic. He closes his eyes, barely registering Niki's bread dropping from his loose grip to the ground. "Stay w'me while I wait for Wilbur to respawn."
Tubbo doesn't respond, but he doesn't leave, which was all Tommy needed. He's still there three hours later when Tommy wakes after having passed out against his shoulder, and he's still there when Tommy finally loses it and breaks down, crying into Tubbo's shirt, and he's still there when the two of them head back into L'manberg and Tommy shatters again upon seeing the damage Wilbur had done to the country they'd given everything to build. He's still there when Niki and Fundy and Bad and Quackity and even Eret, of all people, crowd round and ask if he's ok, and he's still there to get Tommy away and into one of the few untouched houses, promising to stay by his side while he rests, and he's still there when Tommy fully wakes the next morning, asleep on a bed across the room from his, exhausted from yesterday's events. He's still there when Tommy's sitting on the roof that afternoon, staring into space. Despite it all, he's still there. And Tommy can't help but take comfort in knowing that he's not completely alone.

I hate it how no one ever listen to Tommy. Even when he says "Wilbur was not so poggers" the others laugh, they think that Tommy is joking, they think that he's just being his usual self, but Tommy is serious.
When he asked Tubbo if he knew what Dream did to him in exile no one thought about asking what he meant.
When he said that Dream is not who he seems to be, no one listened to him.
Even when he swore that he didn't blow up the community house no one believed him.
And when he said that about Wilbur? He was dead serious. Tommy wants back the Wilbur that made L'Manberg, the Wilbur that was his big brother, but he's afraid that he will have back the Wilbur that destroyed L'Manberg instead, the Wilbur who was slowly losing his mind, the Wilbur that manipulated him and hurt him, not physically but mentally.
Tommy is afraid that Wilbur will agree with Phil and Techno and leave him alone, he's afraid Wilbur will abandon him like everyone else seems to do as of late.
Tommy is so fucking afraid because at least Ghostbur passes time with him, and Tommy wants his big brother back but at the same time he doesn't really want it because he doesn't know if the real Wilbur will come back or the insane one instead.
Tommy is afraid and no one is doing something for him, no one is there to tell him "It's alright, I've got you, I'll never leave you alone."
Ranboo said to Tommy, before his exile, that no matter what will happen he will be there for him, he told him this when Tommy dared to open up to him and reveal him that he still dreamed of Wilbur saying "Let's be the bad guys", but now Ranboo is with Techno and Phil.
Tommy tried to trust Techno, but now Techno joined forces with Dream, Tommy's abuser, and Techno knows that Dream fucked Tommy up.
There's Tubbo but Tubbo just wants to live a peaceful life, he doesn't care about the discs as much as Tommy does and he's not the figure Tommy needs in his life to heal, because Tubbo is fucked up just like Tommy is.
And it makes me so fucking angry because no one is trying to understand Tommy. I mean, I understand that everyone has their own trauma but between Dream stealing his discs, Eret's betrayal, Schlatt's exile, Wilbur's manipulation, L'Manberg blowing up, Tubbo's exile, Dream manipulation, Techno not trying to see his poing and only thinking about destroying L'Manberg, lying to him and hiding his true intention until almost the end, L'Manberg blowing up again... He's the one who took the most shit out of everyone.
It just... Makes me so angry. Tommy deserves way more than this.
Yea, tommy’s been through hell. The only thing I really disagree with you anon was the community house. Remember Tommy has a knack for messing stuff up. He destroyed george’s house, as far as they know Tommy blew up other stuff on the server (that time with puffy and Dream), when he was literally exile he came back to dig a pit to bedrock, he steals from peoples houses. So to them Tommy blowing up the community house was just the natural progress. Most of the people in the server though him being exiled was just him being away. Then he comes back with techno, y’know? the guy who blew up and withered l’manburg the first time? tortured and killed someone. What’d stop him from what they can only assume to be blind anger blowing up the community house?
Also Tommy when he talks he never fully says what I means. He never truly elaborates. He is often joking and acting like he owns the world, in the other characters eyes. To them he was joking. Maybe it was a bit serious with him saying that alivebur was not so poggers but he must see this as a funny haha right? We all know that alivebur was a bit off the rails Tommy’s just saying it in a silly way!
Tommy has been through so much. Everyone on the server has been through so much. I will say this anon, and I mean it with no anger, hatred, no negativity. You seem to want everyone to understand fully Tommy’s view, please consider that other characters have views that Tommy refuses to see through also. They’re humans and you don’t ask your manager at work about everything that’s happened to them to figure out why they’re yelling at you. You just see that they’re yelling at you and make assumptions. Maybe they’ve mentioned in the past that their family wasn’t the best. You don’t dig into that and that doesn’t make you feel any better about being yelled at. 
When Tommy does try to communicate I wish more people would listen. I wish tommy would open up and explain. I wish people would ask more questions. I wish techno was more compassionate and didn’t just see people as means to ends, siding with whoever can help him get to his goals the quickest. Ranboo has his reasons for joining Techno. I do wish he’d reach out to Tommy more tho. I wish the kid had someone, anyone that was consistent and there and strong for him.

Maybe either Tubbo or Fundy?
Tubbo - Really trying his best. Not a bad person. He has the right intentions. He gets thrown into a lot of situations he's not prepared for - Schlatt calling him back to be his right hand man, becoming president of an entire nation, etc.
Tubbo was never prepared for presidency, he got picked to be president as a second choice and was expected to be a good president just like that. He tried his best to rebuild the nation and he was genuinely doing a good job, however he was destined to fail as Fundy and Quackity, members of his cabinet, refused to listen to him on day 2 when he told them not to provoke Techno because he just wants peace.
Tubbo only had Schlatt and Wilbur as examples of presidents before this. Tubbo wants to eliminate any threat to his nation and ends up causing more problems doing so - exiling Tommy to prevent Dream's war, trying to hunt down Techno which lead to Techno now wanting blood...
Tubbo is scared of what Techno is capable of, didnt have any way of knowing he was in retirement, and just knew he was out there with the resources to blow up his nation after threatening to do so. If someone hated you and your friends (because Tubbo's cabinet members are his FRIENDS) and has threatened multiple times to harm your nation and harm them, is FULLY capable of doing so any time he wanted, and then goes into "retirement" would you believe him if you were in Tubbo's position or would you want him gone also? He didnt go about it the right way but that doesnt mean he's evil.
L'Manberg isnt what it used to be, but Tubbo doesnt realize that. L'Manberg is incredibly special to Tommy and Wilbur and Tubbo was there when it was created, of course he's gonna wanna make sure the nation stays safe
Also I dont believe him putting Philza in house arrest is evil lol Philza confirmed he was working with Techno who, again, threatened less than a month before that to destroy the nation.
He wants what's best but is easily manipulated (Dream and Quackity) as a result.
People say he's becoming Schlatt but that's not true at all, he's not TRYING to be evil. He gets talked over all the time and not taken seriously but he finally speaks loud and assertive and that means he's evil now?? Nah
He really deserves better and deserves rest tbh. I wouldn't mind if he's overthrown I just dont want him to be president anymore, he's been put in so many stressful situations that have turned into disasters
I hope he doesnt die by the end of the story, he doesnt deserve that
Fundy - Fundy's perspective is very underrated, it was surprising to me how many people didnt realize he was a spy and thought he was genuinely working for Schlatt
Now Fundy isnt really a bad person but he's not innocent. He has a reputation for scamming, stealing, pranking, etc. He started a minor civil war in L'Manberg because he stole Karl's Netherite and refused to give it back lol
He was Wilbur's son, but you cant deny Wilbur was a terrible father even before the corruption arc. He refused to take Fundy seriously, mocked his ideas, babied him and treated him like an incapable child leading to moments where Fundy would bash Wilbur's ideals and purposefully rebel against him in small ways like putting on the L'Manberg uniform while committing violence, something that was frowned upon in L'Manberg.
Fundy saw there was an election going on and decided to run for president with Niki, as him and Niki had been teaming up a LOT during the Pet War. Wilbur, upon seeing him run for president, immediately shut him down, disregarded him as a Traitor, and told Tommy that Fundy is dead to him. Fundy joined Schlatt as a spy, only telling Eret his plans, and burned the flag Niki made to "prove his loyalty to Schlatt". Fundy created a new flag for Schlatt, did stuff like help decorate, he's desperate for validation from a father figure or someone in a higher position of power
I think Fundy really started to warm up to Schlatt despite trying to be a spy. Schlatt gave him responsibilities and positions of power and didnt treat him like a small child which lead to Fundy "disowning" Wilbur. Fundy went on to say Schlatt has done more for the country than Wilbur has, but after the festival he ran to Pogtopia, sat there for a bit and said "I was wrong." (Reminder that Fundy's POV is underrated)
When Fundy revealed himself as a Spy and showed them the 20 page book he'd been working on he was mocked and Wilbur told him "I Despise You".
Fundy lost both Wilbur and Schlatt on the same day and his Daddy Issues still havent been resolved
He had his moment with Philza but even Philza said he's dead to him after Fundy did the Butcher Army stuff and he never did get adopted by Eret
Speaking of Eret I really wish he adopted Fundy as he's one of the people who's been consistently supportive of Fundy where Wilbur never was. Eret supported COCONUT2020 and cheered for them even when they lost, Fundy and Eret remained friends after Eret's betrayal, Fundy trusted Eret with his spy plan, etc

Dream SMP Updates | Dec. 8th
Okay a lot happened this week so I’m going to list major events that happened in case you missed the streams, I’ll try to keep this as clear as possible. Before I start I just want to remind you that this is a roleplay, do not go and hate on these people, they’re all friends. 
--- 
Tommy, Tubbo & Dream battle it out over the L'Manberg grief...: Tommy and Ranboo griefed and robbed George’s house in an attempt to piss off Dream, which worked because a few hours later, he was seen building a tall obsidian wall around New L’Manburg. Tubbo being the new president talked about it with Dream trying to understand why he was doing this, he explained that Tommy burned down George’s house. Skipping forward, Tubbo takes Tommy to court to try and solve things peacefully after this Dream and Tubbo talk about a punishment for Tommy that would satisfy both parties, Tommy took all the blame as to not get Ranboo in trouble as well. 
Tubbo And TommyInnit Start To Break Apart... (5 days ago): During this stream Dream gets angry and says that if Tubbo doesn’t exile Tommy the walls will continue to go up meanwhile he threatens to hire Punz and Sapnap to guard inside the walls and kill anyone who wears armor inside the walls. Tubbo not knowing what to do decides to run a poll on Twitter to see what the fans wanted. After that Ranboo and Tommy discuss the situation and Ranboo assures that if Tommy does get exiled then he’ll help him as much as he can.
TommyInnit Is Exiled From The Dream SMP... (3 days ago): Tommy was exiled with the results being 55.8% for exile and 44.2% of the vote being against the idea. Dream escortes Tommy out of the Dream SMP with Wilbur, they make their way across an ocean to finally arrives on an island. Techno joins eventually to pretty much mock Tommy and prove that he was right all along.

TW / SUICIDAL THOUGHTS 
Do not read the next part if you are uncomfortable with this subject. Thank you! 
---
Tommy Is Alone in Exile with Dream... (2 days ago): At the start of the stream, BadBoyHalo is seen around Tommy’s base. They talk for a while and as it turns out Bad actually had a present for Tommy. He gave him a disk (Chirp), 6 full stacks of oak logs and 55 more, a stack of cooked chicken, an ender chest, one diamond, 14 bones and an old enchanted diamond pickaxe which Tommy refuses at first thinking that it’s out of pity but eventually he accepts them and thanks Bad. The rest of the stream is Sapnap and Dream pretty much bullying Tommy and just joking around, close to the end though Sapnap, Dream, Tommy and Ghostbur go to the nether to see the christmas tree in the Dream SMP. Of course Tommy wants to see it but Dream doesn’t let him so they go back to go take a picture of the tree meanwhile they leave Tommy alone. Tommy stares into the lava and before he can jump Dream stops him saying that it isn’t his time to die. It’s important to remember that Tommy only has one canon live left. 
And with that the stream pretty much ends.

SAFE TO READ AGAIN 
---
Tommy Is Getting So Much Worse in Exile... (a day ago): Tommy’s plan during this stream was pretty much to get an ender chest by himself (and not receive it from someone), Ranboo and Fundy join him in his quest to get blaze powder in the nether. Tommy, Ghostbur and Techno also try to save LazerBeam from burning in lava towards the end of the stream which fails. 
---
Tommy Is So Lonely in Exile with Dream (6 hours ago): During this stream he sees the little Christmas tree that CaptainPuffy built for him next to his tent, inside the chest was three diamonds and 46 blue wool, he soon after messages her saying thank you. Dream soon joins him and they talk for a while, for pretty much the rest of the stream they build a bridge that leads directly back to Tommy’s place so that people can come visit him more often. LazarBeam also visits Tommy and gives him a present which are a fire resistance potion of 8 minutes and a new disc (Far) as a thank you gift for trying to save him from the lava and also a way to start a new friendship. Also Connor comes to hang out for a bit as well and that’s pretty much it.

Meanwhile with Quackity
---
Quackity Creates Mexican L'Manberg With GeorgeNotFound and Today Mexican L'Manburg Goes To War In Dream SMP (a day ago): Quackity and GeorgeNotFound create Mexican L’Manburg directly on top of Purpled’s base and farm, Dream makes Eret king again as he judges that George failed his duty as king to stay neutral by joining Mexican L’Manburg, Karl and Sapnap soon join them as well. They later go on a small protest in front of Eret’s castle before the event Quackity sets TNT under the pathway to the castle that is later activated by George resulting in Karl’s first canon death. The point of that was to blame Eret of murder and get George to get the king of the SMP again, later in the stream Dream comes on to solve the issue since the plan failed. Toward the end of the stream they come to the conclusion that it would be best for both parties to rename the country and fix Eret’s castle. Mexican L’Manburg was later renamed to El Rapids. 
---
Meanwhile with BadBoyHalo
---
What Did I Discover? (a day ago): At the start of the stream Bad shows what he found to his chat, which appears to be a large growth underground resembling an egg of some sort. During the entire stream it was seen slowly spreading across not only it’s original spot but also on the Prime Path, Schlatt’s grave and Tubbo’s old tower. He goes back and forth a few time and then whatever the thing is manages to somehow control Bad and Antfrost, they investigate more with Sam (aka Awesomedude) and Punz. Sam being sceptical tries to convince Bad and Ant to destroy “the egg” to try and stop the growth but they don’t listen, Punz says it’s not that bad since it’s not doing anything for now, so they leave it. Bad and Ant later go to Sam’s house to plant and spread the growth inside Sapnap and George’s old rooms to try and get Sam on their side as well. They later show Eret and suggests quarantining parts of the server also saying that they should study “the egg” to possibly learn more. 
---
Anyway this is it for now, I hope this helped if you haven’t had time to catch up this week. I linked a lot of videos and it took a lot of time to try and make resume of the crazy week. I have a lot of theories regarding “the egg” and a possible Schlatt possessing Quackity arc so stay tuned for that too! Thank you for reading, shares are truly appreciated! Bye!! :D
