Tubbos voice was shaky, and the cameras swerved towards him. "Y'know I still have dreams, right? Of- of the explosion."

 Tubbo subconsciously touched the burnt part of his face, careful not to smudge the make up. "And- and of the fireworks, and all of it. I vividly see it everyday." 

"It hurts" A tear streamed down Tubbos cheek, and suddenly Wilbur enveloped him in a hug.

"I'm sorry, man" Wilbur said. He didn't sound like Revivedbur, so Tubbo awkwardly stood there.

"Are we recording or..?" He asked, normal again but confused.

Wilbur let go of him and his brow furrowed. "It's okay to cry, it's just getting caught up in the character."

Tubbo smiled, not looking sad at all. "I know. Was I doing that? Sorry." He quickly apologized.

The crew glanced at each other.

"Tubbo, were you acting?" Wilbur asked, mystified.

Tubbo nodded "Why? Did I do something wrong?"

Suddenly the whole crew burst into applause, which startled the boy. 

"I thought you were actually crying oh my god." Wilbur laughed.

"Same! I cut the cameras right before Wilbur hugged you." Karl grinned.

"That was fucking amazing!! You looked so fucking depressed my god" Tommy cheered, and the compliments made Tubbo blush a little.

(/p you creepy tommyxtubbo shippers out there somewhere)

"Since when were you this good at fake crying?" Ranboo asked.

Tubbo shrugged. "I dunno. I think of everything sad. I'm easily broken, you know this."

The crew laughed. "Tubbo, that was beautiful. Let's do it one more time." Dream said, and Niki rushed on to touch up the burn makeup.

They redid the scene, and after everyone cheered.

"Lets go Tubbo!" Tommy grinned, handing him a slice of pizza. Tubbo gratefully took it, after he washed off the makeup.

"What do you think of, specifically?" Wilbur asked, taking off his coat.

"My dead family" Tubbo said dramatically, and they laughed.

"Nah man, really?"

"Anything sad I remember hearing. Sometimes I imagine someone I love dying, and that makes me cry. In that scene I imagined my cat, Rocky, dying. So yes, I cried." Tubbo shrugged.

Wilbur raised an eyebrow. "Everyone should remember that tactic. The Tubbo Tear Tactic."

Tommy tried not to choke laughing on his pizza. Karl giggled and nodded. "We're putting that on the bulletin board in the hall."

Tubbo laughed and smiled faintly, biting into the pizza.

He hadn't really imagined Rocky dying.

He had imagined everyone hating him.

But they didn't. Did they?

Tubbo frowned for a second before weakly laughing at a joke Tommy made.

The thoughts were getting to him. 

No, no, they didn't hate him. They just applauded because he did something right!

He did something right for once.
