Dying Light

Not Anymore

Tommy went to his house and started to clear out useless things and started preparing for when they leave. He decided he would need to collect things like ores for Ghostbur and get him good armor. Tommy and Foolish had enough on their own but the sweet ghost saw no need for any material possessions before. Now though they were not a thing of flaunting wealth but of actual safety and Tommy would take no risks. The teen gathered materials and headed to the mines to find all the ores possible. He also realized he needs to pack things for Friend. Then he made another realization what if someone uses their communicators to track them? But if they get rid of the tool and someone needed serious help how would they know? Damn these communicators were a double edge sword.

Tommy decided to bring it up to the other two later and just kept mining. He ran into Technoblade down in the mines. The Pig Man had yet to notice the boy so Tommy minded his business and kept mining. When Techno finally looked behind him he let out a banshee type scream. "HOLY SHIT THESEUS!" Tommy just signed at him -Hey what the hell- Techno just stared at him. "You know I don't know signs right? Well with the fact you are signing its safe to assume you didn't know." Tommy rolled his eyes and texted him on the communicator asking what he wants. "Oh uh nothing just having a tea party can't you tell? Obviously I'm mining child!" Tommy again rolled his eyes and texted him that he was to busy for this shit and would be leaving. Tommy waved him goodbye and left the mines quickly.

Techno stared at the boy. When had his Theseus turned into Icarus, and how had he only now noticed. The voices seemed to laugh at the man, and tell him how he has abandoned the boy and never checked on him how would he know anything. Techno knew that they didn't only mean his most recent abandonment of the boy leaving him to deal with exile, yet taking in Ranboo who was just as guilty of the crime Tommy was solely blamed for. Tommy had taken the whole blame though so what would anyone do? The boy was more selfless and caring that he was given credit for. The situation with Nikki served as further proof and evidence of it. That boy would do anything for family, but would they do the same for him? Not anymore. They all had one reason or another to blame him and hate him for. Whether they were reasonable or not they just did. Maybe one day they would accept their own faults and others faults instead of pinning it on the boy.

Tommy hurried home and got ready for bed since night was quickly approaching and he needed all the sleep he could get. He took some sleeping potions that were prescribed by Puffy to help him sleep through his nightmares. That night he slept soundly until morning. It had been a while since Tommy had slept this well in such a comfortable bed. Or maybe it was the lack of Wing cramps from sleeping on top of them while shifting around and kicking around. Tommy didn't know and didn't want to think about it not anymore not when he was recovering so well. He refused to spiral on such a seemingly good day. So the boy got out of bed right at sunrise and went to eat breakfast then prepare for another day of mining. Hopefully this time without running into anyone especially Techno, Phil, or Tubbo. He did not want to deal with any of those three.
