Under The Floorboards(Technoblade X Reader)

Part 2:

      Technoblade had told you to wait so that's exactly what you planned on doing. You didn't move from your spot by the door, even as Techno chased Tommy around his home. They were shouting the entire time arguing about things like whose house this was and how Tommy was a raccoon for stealing his stuff.

Eventually, the two settled down and all three of you sat by the fire, Techno stood awkwardly next to you before you patted the spot on the couch beside you. He looked relieved and sat by your side, Technoblade tentatively put a hand on your knee and squeezed it tenderly.

      "I guess I owe you an explanation...for that thing." He motioned to Tommy who made a baffled noise of protest, assumingly insulted by being referred to as a 'thing.'

      "Please." You nodded at him and he looked at you with a downcast expression. Technoblade cleared his throat before taking a deep breath, he began to retell his tale for you. He started way back, like all the way back to when orphans killed his parents back. He talked about the voices and assured you that they never would tell him to hurt you, or anything of the sort. You frowned a little and reassured the half pigman that you didn't assume that was the case and that you didn't think any different of him because of the voices. If Tommy wasn't in the room you think Techno might've gotten a little choked up, if his glassy eyes had anything to say about how he felt.

As he got deeper into the story he shared about the two fallings of L'manburg the first one under the dictatorship of a goat-man named Schlatt, and the other due to their other 'brother,' Wilbur blowing it sky-high. You were also informed Wilbur was still wandering the world as a ghost who was now dubbed Ghostbur.

Tommy would interrupt every so often and put his two sense into the story. Many of his interjections included how horrible your boyfriend was for betraying them so many times and how he only wanted chaos. He also made it very clear how utterly shocked he was that you've never heard of their country or its rich history.

Now, it was no shock to you that Technoblade hated the government. That was never a secret he tried to hide. He always made it very clear he had a distaste for them and their ideas, and over time you couldn't help but agree with him especially now, after hearing his story. Tommy seemed to grow increasingly uncomfortable as Technoblade talked about the festival; you watched the boy wither a little seeing how passionate Techno was about slaughtering all his friends. He talked a bit more in-depth about Schlatts death, the ultimate betrayal by the revolutionary leader Wilbur, and how Technoblade was furious they would dare try to start a new form of government right in front of him. He looked like he had more to say about that part of the story but wasn't too keen on sharing it with Tommy, you guessed he probably felt betrayed by the ones he considered friends. You would feel that way at least considering he was honest with them about his ideals from the very beginning of the war.

      "Then I ran away to retire, and I met you." Technoblade sighed, his shoulders sagging. "I never meant to...be with you romantically. A trade partner sure, I never thought I'd have the time for anything romantic. Didn't even know I was capable but...god- I'm so glad I met you-"

      "Simp!" Tommy shouted pointing an accusing finger at Techno who glared at him.

      "Don't you have a tower to build!"

      "Is that permission I hear?" Tommy sang happily jumping up from his seat by the fire. Technoblade made a horrified face but you squeezed his hand that was on your knee. Almost as if to say let him go we need to talk, his eyes widened a little as he stared at you. He didn't say anything as he watched Tommy run out the door with a wicked smile on his lips. Technoblade swallowed a little and grabbed your hand with both of his,
