ALSO THIS IS ANOTHER OLD ONE BECAUSE I HAVE NO MOTIVATION TO WRITE RIGHT NOW.

NO NEED FOR SHORT DESCRIPTION!

⚠︎︎TW⚠︎︎ for mentions of death/losing someone!

It had been 2 weeks since Wilburs death. Everyone was acting different, because they knew it was a touchy subject for the family. Quackity brought it up and it didnt end well.

Flashback~

"Hey Techno..." said Karl as Technoblade walked in. "Hey." Techno said simply. Quackity who was side hugging Karl walked closer to Techno. "How are you? I mean after everything thats happened..." Quackity asked genuinely concerned. Technoblades eyes widened and then he sighed. "Its fine." He started walking faster, but of course Quackity being...well Quackity followed.

"You know you need to talk about it-" Quackity was cut off by a the tall man in front of him. "No. I. Dont. I told you its fine." Technoblades eyes watered more and more as he spoke. "Hey man I-" Quackity started but was cut off again. "Leave him be..." Karl said taking Quackitys hand. Quackity frowned but then smiled at Karl. "Bye and sorry Tlechnoblade..." Karl said as he walked away.

Techno quickly ran home into his room and let the tears fall. He felt so weak... So dumb... So vulnerable...

Yet another flashback~

Tommy was finishing up with his therapy session (Tommy agreed to go after what happened with Wilbur, and after seeing how Techno was he invited him come along as well but Techoblade denied.) with Puffy when he noticed something. He noticed two small braids in her hair. "Hey Puffy?" He spoke as he collected his things. "Yes Tommy?" She asked sweetly while cleaning around her desk.

"Did you do your own hair?" He asked face flushing out of embarrassment. Puffy laughed a bit. "Yes of course, who else would have done it?" "Yeah, It was a weird question. But- It- Could you- I mean...Forget it." Tommy ended up saying after a long pause. "You know Tommy you can tell me anything. You shouldn't be embarrassed to say what's on your mind you know." Puffy smiled at Tommy as she put her sailors hat back on. Tommy smiled back and gave in.

"It's just- after the whole Wilbur incident Techno has been having a real bad time. So- I just- I remember that Wilbur- Before I mean. He'd braid his hair and I wanna- forget it its stupid." Tommy shook his head softly tears threatening to fall. Puffy could just see how much this boy loved his brothers and having one of them gone it really broke Puffy's heart to imagine what Tommy must feel.

"Its not stupid I think it's a wonderful idea, and of course I could teach you how to braid. It's actually pretty simple." Puffy said smiling her sweet smile once again. Tommys face visibly brightened with excitement and happiness.

After nearly an HOUR Tommy finally learned how to do a decent braid.

"I DID IT! YES!" Tommy exclaimed loudly. "Yeah! I'm so proud of you!" Puffy spoke honestly. Tommy blushed once again. "Thank you Captain Puffy." He said sheepishly. "Anytime." She winked and made a hand movement. "If you don't mind me asking though- " She started staring at Tommy who's head was tilted to the left. "Why did you want to learn how to braid?"

"Well- Technos hairs very long and tends to get in the way a lot. So before Wilbur would come home and practice all kinds of hairstyles on him. But- The one they like the most is a braid." Tommy slowly smiled at the memories.

Puffy could tell he had more to say so she stayed silent.

"One time Wilbur went out with Phil and Techno tried doing a braid on himself." Tommy could help but laugh a bit.

"It looked terrible and he knotted up his hair so bad!" Tommy wheezed. It's been a while sense Tommy had been so happy. "Wil spend days brushing and putting shit in his hair! Days! And just because he didn't want to cut it!" Tommy laughed more

"Sounds amazing." Puffy complimented. "It was amazing! It really was." Tommy frowned as reality hit him. But he pushed it aside and looked at Puffy. "Its alright you can go if you'd like." She said simply. Tommy gave her a quick hug and bid a goodbye.

Now all that brings us to where we are...

Tommy was outside of Techno's door with two plates of food. It took him awhile but eventually he knocked on the door. Techno knew who it was so he quickly wiped his tears and opened the door. "I wanted to eat with you." was all Tommy said. Techno (and everyone else) noticed that Tommy stopped with his childish behavior ever sense Wilbur -

"Yeah...ok come in." Technoblade said as he moved out of the way so Tommy could enter.

Tommy smiled and walked in. They ate in silence for a while until tommy broke it. "Tech- Can i show you something i learned?" Tommy looked at techno clearly embarrassed. "Mhm." Techno mumbled not wanting to talk because he knew he would break down. Tommy slowly walked towards Technoblades closet and looks through the drawers until he found what he was searching for.

Tommy brought a hair brush and a hair tie and walked over to Techno. He started brushing his brothers long pink hair. Technoblade choked up.

Tommy started braiding his hair taking his time to make it perfect. Techno sobbed quietly but Tommy didnt call him out on it like he would normally. Instead he just continued doing his hair. After Tommy was done Techno was still crying. Tommy extended his arms asking for a hug. Techno immediately hugged his brother. Both Tommy and Techno were now crying.

"I miss him." Technoblade finally admitted. Tommy nodded into Technos chest. "Is that-" Technoblade took a moment to compose himself.

"Is that why you did my hair?" Techno asked. Tommy cried more and nodded. Both boys were confused, hurt, yet somehow at ease. Technoblade hugged his younger brother tighter. "Thank you..." Techno whispered. Tommy hugged Technoblade back just as tight.

"I needed this..." Techno whispered in Tommy's ear. "Techno..." Tommy said pulling his older brother closer if physically possible. Techno mumbled in response. "I didn't say this to Wilbur as much as I should have. I don't wanna do that again." Tommy struggled to get his words out without crying.

Techno was really confused but let him continue. "I love you Techno... I love you so goddamn much." Tommy whispered to him. "I love you too, I really do Tommy." Technoblade whispered back.

After a lot more crying and talk they finally laid down.

Tommy cuddled up against Technos chest. "Today was an emotional roller coaster." Tommy laughed a little as did Techno. "I'm tired..." Technoblade closed his eyes. "Goodnight Tech. "Tommy said immediately letting sleep take over them both.
