TW: fainting, swearing

"I'm gonna go to the bathroom, be right back," Tommy said quickly into the mic. A chorus of 'okays' came from the other people in the vc during their chill after-stream conversation. Tommy quickly went to mute his mic, as his video was already off. Unknowingly, he clicked his video instead of his mic, leaving both on.

He got up from his desk to go to the bathroom, forgetting in his hurry that he hadn't had his water bottle to drink from today and that he would have to get up slowly. Instead, he rose quickly and immediately dropped to the floor, passing out in a wave of dizziness and nausea.

His friends heard a thump and looked to Tommy's screen to see the boy unmoving on the floor. It was a jarring sight, and everyone erupted in concern. Almost immediately, Tubbo quelled everyone's worries and got their attention. "Guys, chill. He's got low blood pressure, and he probably forgot a water bottle. He also might have forgotten to take his pills today. I'm ringing his mum, she can come to check on him and wake him up."

"So he's going to be okay?" Wilbur asked, relieved.

"...Well, hopefully. The truth is, it depends on if he wakes up. He should be waking up any moment and will be fine with some water and his pills, but they might have to take him to the hospital if he doesn't wake up soon. This happens a lot though, so he's probably perfectly okay."

With that, Tubbo muted himself to call Tommy's mother. A few moments later, they saw an older, kind-looking woman rush into Tommy's room and recognized her high, accent-heavy voice as the voice of Tommy's mom.

"Toms, honey, you there?" She gently shook his shoulder and patted his cheek, and a barely-audible groan rose from the afflicted child.

The people watched as the scene unfolded, Tommy and his mom moving quickly as if this had happened many times before. She helped him into a sitting position against his cabinets and reached for an object out of frame that revealed itself to be a bottle of pills. She briefly left the room while Tommy stretched out his fingers and softly rubbed his temples, seemingly soothing a headache. Motherinnit returned with a glass of water and deftly opened the pill bottle, shaking out two and giving them to Tommy who downed them quickly with the water. Tommy's mom patted his shoulder twice before rising and leaving the room. With that, he situated himself at his desk again and got his headset back on.

"Everything good, Toms?" Tubbo asked casually.

"Yep! Forgot my pills and I passed out. Still have to go to the bathroom, so I'll see you guys in a minute." As Tommy properly muted his mic and video, he muttered to himself, "I should really drink more water."

Hydrate or diedrate. For context in case anyone didn't know, Tommy mentioned in a Quackity video that he suffers from low blood pressure. I didn't do much research on it, and there wasn't much for me to research for this story, but still, if I made any mistakes about this condition, please let me know!
