Third Person POV
When tubbo walked into Tommy's room, only for Tommy to be chillin on his bed, he was a little confused. That small confusion turned into a massive confusion when techno shut and locked the door.

Tommy too, looked confused which made tubbo assume he wasn't in on the plan the ghosts had. "Hey techno? What's going on?", Tommy asks, a bit nervous.

"Think of this as a push into the right direction, you and tubbo need to talk out what's going on between you guys", Wilbur instead replies. Tommy sighs, of course they would do this. They were like his older brothers.

So Tommy turns to tubbo, "hello tubbo, been a while since we've had a 'serious conversation'". He starts with, putting air quotes around 'serious conversation'. Tubbo chuckles before agreeing.

They sit in silence for a moment before Tommy pulls out a book, its one about ghosts. "Want to help me cure Ranboob of his spells so we can all hang out?", Tommy asks. Tubbo smile and nods, seeing this as the solution to their problem.

After much searching, and many complaints from Tommy, they found a solution that doesn't involve forgiveness. But it does involve sacrifice.

Tommy would have to fight Ranboo.

Now, Tommy talks big talk, but he knows he's going to get his ass handed to him by Ranboo. He isn't weak, but he also isn't strong.

Tommy sighs, "of course the solution is for him to fight what makes him go off". He starts to feel regret for bringing up trying to help, but then he looks at tubbo and that regret disappears. Tubbo had a small smile on his face and that familiar light is back in his eyes.

Tommy sighs again, he can't have the ghosts interfere and Ranboo will have bragging rights for winning a fight with 'big man Tommyinnit'. Out of all this, that's what bothers him most.

The bragging rights.

After they came to this conclusion, they told the ghosts they resolved their issues. When the ghosts checked and saw the boys were fine, they let tubbo leave.

Tommy smiled at them with a thumbs up when tubbo was leaving, but when the doors closed and the ghosts were gone, he dropped the act. How was he supposed to fight Ranboo? He would have to let him win or the issue would only worsen. And there was only a few days left in the house!

He wished he had more time.

He needed more time.

But alas, sometimes you can't have what you want or need. The sorrow that he felt only when he was truly alone came back.

He knew they were dead and couldn't stay forever. But they acted so human, so alive. It made him think that it would last forever.

But all good things must come to an end.
