Under The Floorboards(Technoblade X Reader)

Part 12

Aether pressed his head against your leg and nuzzled it nervously, trying to catch your attention. He watched his mother look down at him and send him a kind smile, he felt her familiar hand ruffle the fluff on his head and he leaned into her warm touch.

"It'll be okay. I promise you're going to love him. Ranboo doesn't steer us wrong very often,"

Although he couldn't communicate back with her just yet he couldn't help but feel comforted by her reassurance. He grew attached to the young women easily when she had tried to trade with him in the Nether he attached to her kind soul almost immediately. His biological mom was long dead from a rouge ghast explosion from someone else being reckless in the underworld. Aether never knew who his father was but he didn't mind. His new mother was the first one to ever show him any form of kindness since his biological mother and he loved her for that kindness. Once Technoblade got used to Aether being a permanent figure in his home, he had begun to try to teach him how to speak English. It seemed the hybrid wanted Aether to communicate with others more easily and communicate with his mom, which was Aethers' main motivation. So far, Aether could only say a few words back and forth with Technoblade, he also said he couldn't tell mom. Techno had said something about wanting his first words to her to be a surprise, Aether started to see Technoblade as more of an official father figure after that. Techno seemed to genuinely care about his mom so he got his approval for the second time from the young piglin hybrid. Oh yeah, on top of the speaking English thing dad was also trying to teach him how to shift into a human form if Aether even had one, for some reason his father was sure he could shift.

That wasn't going as well as the English.

    "So remember, his name is Micheal and his dads are very protective over him." His mom explained, he tilted his head to the side, "I know what you're thinking. They're way more protective than your dad and I."

Aether would've scoffed, more protective than his dad? that was hard to believe.

"You want up?" You asked him and he blinked slowly up at you, he lifted his arms in the air with a nod. The way you smiled at him sent him into a tizzy and he purred happily against your chest, "I love you too my little flower!" The two of you soon came across the Bee Duo's mansion and Aether saw you gawk at the sight. Even he was intimidated by the massive size, he felt you pull him closer as loud clattering was heard from around the corner. Aether felt your one hand drift to your side where your dagger was located and he let a small growl bubble in his throat.

He wanted to sound just like his papa.

A tall man then stumbled around the side of the house, his skin looked to be golden, which made Aether's instincts want to touch his face as soon as possible. The man's eyes were also an emerald green and he wore what seemed to be a shark onesie. His mom shifted a little and called out a greeting, and Aether looked up at her steeled over face,

    "Hello?"

The man let out a startled yelp and turned on his heels to face the two of them,

    "Oh...Hello?" He responded slowly looking around a little, "Uh. I don't think you're supposed to be here?"

    "This is where Ranboo told me to meet him. Who exactly are you?" You narrowed your eyes and Aether saw you unsheathe your blade,

The statuesque man blinked a few times before letting out a loud "Oh! You're (Y/n)! Or one of Ranboo's guardians!" The man pointed at his mom, "And is that Aether?"

His mom smiled softly momentarily murmuring a soft, "Ranboo thinks of me as one of his guardians?" However she quickly shook her head, narrowing her eyes again, she responded to the man's question with a firm, "Depends on who's asking."
