TW: Selfharm is implied, Torture is discussed, Child abuse, Transphobia is talked about

Phil was slightly worried about what was going on, he didn't want Tubbo to be hurt by Tommy. He ran in to pull Tommy back, he had both his arms held behind his back.

"Oh f#ck off Phil."

"Tommy, you really should listen to Tubbo." Phil looked up, Eret had also stepped in. Phil had a look of suprise? Painted across his face. "And Phil you should let Tommy go." Phil let go of Tommy but glared at Eret.

"Tommy, please listen I didn't know. I was scared of Dream too, he's my brother I've seen the sh#t he can do to people." Tubbo then gestured over to Ranboo. "Look at Ranboo, that's not even the worst he's done to someone."

"Sure, whatever you say Mr. President."

"What else could I have done?"

"You could have- Ranboo was hurt, you should have done something."

"Just because he's my brother doesn't mean he won't hurt me, in fact it probably would be worse considering I would have "betrayed" the family."

Tommy was at a bit of a loss for words, Tubbo does have a point. What could he have done? Why was he even yelling at Tubbo, he's seen the f#cked up sh#t he has done.

"You still f#cking deadnamed him, Schlatt." Tubbo flinched slightly at Phil calling him that, and looked away a bit in shame.

"I didn't know, I didn't know what was going on. I was scared Dream would hurt me if I stepped out of line." Tubbos hands began to drift and draw a light line across his chest, it was just below the burn he got from the fireworks. No one seemed to notice it though.

"Phil, focus on your on child. If you can even call him that. Tubbo has a right to be scared, I was mad at him at first too. It had been taken out of context when it was told to me."

"So he doesn't get punished at all? He just gets away with this?"

"He is a child Phil, a 17 year old what do you want me to do?"

"Exile him too, you are king after all."

"I suggest you leave Phil, your opinion isn't wanted here."

Phil glared at Eret, he grabbed Tommy's wrist and beginning to pull him out. Tommy winced in pain and tried to get out of Phil's grasp but it just hurt more, he was a sure a few of the cuts must have been reopened.

"Phil, let go please..." Tommy had tears in his eyes, he didn't want to leave with Phil. He wanted to stay here with Ranboo, Eret and Tubbo too.

"I'm not leaving you here."

"Phil please- it hurts." Phil lets go and slightly pushes Tommy away.

"Stay here with those transphobic b#tches then." With that Phil storms off into the forest, leaving Tommy on the ground holding his arm.

Once Phil had left Eret jumped into action, she first helped Tubbo over to the blue tent. They then run towards Tommy, he lightly holds Tommy's arm trying not to touch where the blood is coming from. She holds the tip of the sleeve, about to pull it back before thinking for a second. "Can I look?"

"Yes." Tommy sounded like he was in a lot of pain so they slowly push the fabric up his wrist. It seemed like he would only need to get bandages because the cut wasn't that deep, it probably hurt mostly from the fabric rubbing against it.

"Ranboo, do you know where the bandages are?"

"Yes, I'll go get them."

Eret then continued to talk to Tommy trying to take his mind of the pain, Ranboo then ran up beside her and handed them the bandages. Eret then carefully wrapped his wrist in bandages, he then tucked in the left over.

"Does anyone else stay here?"

"Fundy recently moved here."

"Ok, Ranboo I need you to go find Fundy I'm going to take everyone back to my castle and we can talk there." Ranboo quickly nodded and skipped off.

————

Eret was supporting Tubbo by the portal while Tommy was putting a bag of his stuff together, they were all waiting for Ranboo to return with Fundy.

After about five minutes they saw two figures running towards them, it looked like they were chasing each other. As the duo came closer and closer they could finally see who they were, Fundy was running right at them with Ranboo behind seemingly shouting at him.

"Tubbo, what the f#ck are you doing here."

"I'm sorry, I'm- I was a coward."

"I'll explain everything later, I'm taking everyone back to my castle. You can come if you want Fundy but I can't force you."

"No way do I want to anywhere go with Tubbo." Tommy was staying uncharacteristically quiet, in fact he had for the whole afternoon.

"Okay, I can't force you. Just know you are welcome." Eret the pauses to then see Tommy stand up silently and go through the portal. Eret then helps Tubbo who was now rather pale from the outing, through the portal.

Ranboo followed behind them and the four travelled back to The Greater Esempe. Eret was very worried for all of them, they were all only children and both Tommy and Tubbo self harm and Ranboo was tortured by Dream. She was very worried about Tommy, he is never this quiet.

After arriving at the castle he takes them to two spare rooms. "Two people will have to share, but I would prefer if Tubbo was alone."

"Tommy and I will be fine with sharing a room then."

"I used to have another room, but HBomb recently moved in. Don't mind him too much though."

Ranboo smiles and then leads Tommy into the larger of the two room, it was a nice room with two single beds, a bookshelf, a painting and a few other bits and bobs.

Eret then helps Tubbo into his room, the room is pretty much the same as the other but only one bed and a bit smaller. They then help Tubbo into bed, Tubbo looked like they would pass out any second now. "Don't try to leave the bed, I will be up in the morning with food. Good night Tubbo."

"Goodnight Eret." He smiled slightly before closing the door, she then goes to Tommy and Ranboos room. The two of them were sitting on their beds laughing. "Goodnight you two, don't forget to get some sleep." Eret half closes the door before poking his head back in. "And Tommy make sure you take off your binder."

"Goodnight Eret!" Ranboos happy voice still filled with laughter.

She missed this. Running around with Tubbo and his bees, reading Tommy books that he would try to eat because they were to boring and educational in his words.

Before a child was put in charge of a country, before children were exiled for small mistakes; before children were tortured...
