Ranboo let out a spooked noise, holding Michael closer.
Tubbo tensed slightly and went over to the door, opening it cautiously, making sure whoever was there wouldn't be able to see Ranboo and Michael from where they were. "Hello..?"
Wilbur stood there, looking quite anxious. "Tubbo, where's Ranboo...."
Tubbo's eyes narrowed slightly. "Why...?"
Ranboo backed up, his eyes filling with fear.
"He promised me he would do something for me," Wilbur said, looking to the side a little bit.
"Ah..." Tubbo looked over towards Ranboo. "Let me get him.."
"Hurry."
Tubbo quickly closed the door and went over to Ranboo. "Wilbur said you promised to do something for him... I can take Michael back upstairs if you can talk to Wil-"
"But I- okay...." Ranboo looked worried, his expression not really settling.
"I'm sorry-"
Ranboo tried to smile and walked over to the door, opening it and getting yanked out immediately.
Tubbo muttered worriedly to himself as he took Michael upstairs. The little zombie piglin tilted his head in confusion and sadness.
"Sorry, Michael, your dad's probably not going to be back for a little while..."
~~~
Several hours later, Ranboo walked back into the house looking drained, and honestly a little scared.
Tubbo looks over. "R-Ranboo...?"
"I-I don't l-like Wil......." A tear dripped down his face and he winced slightly.
Tubbo looked down a bit and pulled at his hair roughly. "I'm so sorry... I shouldn't have let you go..." He walked over to Ranboo and hugged him.
Ranboo hugged Tubbo back, still feeling the burning sensation of his tears.
"...can I ask what he needed..?"
"E-experiments..."
Tubbo's breath hitched and his eyes went wide. "Experiments-? Did I hear you right-?"
Ranboo nodded a little.
Tubbo carefully separated from Ranboo, his voice going a little quieter. "I think I need to do something... I'll be back in a little while, alright..?"
Ranboo nodded again, fear flashing through his eyes.
Tubbo kissed Ranboo's cheek. "I love you, bossman, stay safe alright..?"
Ranboo nodded a little bit and sat in the corner, fearful thoughts flooding his mind.
Tubbo went out the door, making sure to close it behind him. He had a few choice things to say to Wilbur.
(a/n: wouldn't that've been such a fun place to stop? but no, there's more in this part hehe)
~~~
Tubbo found Wilbur looking through a notebook in a large field. "Wilbur!"
Wilbur looked over at Tubbo from the notebook. "Tubbo?"
"How're you, we haven't really talked in a while." Tubbo's tone was much colder than usual.
"I see, and to what do I owe the pleasure?" Wilbur looked bored.
Tubbo smiled harshly. "Ranboo told me you were experimenting on him. I thought I'd come right some things."
"Yes, and? We don't know enough about what he is."
Tubbo frustratedly pulled Wilbur down by his shirt. "Doesn't mean you can do that. He came home shaking in fear. I think he might've even cried, Wil."
"Oh? Well if he'd just gone along with it the water wouldn'tve spilled on him." Wilbur shrugged, a small smirk on his face.
Tubbo ruffled his hair, moving it away from his rage-filled eyes. "Come near my husband ever again, and I mean ever, and you're gonna have some serious shit to deal with, huh? I'll take a canon life, Wil, I promise."
Wilbur laughed a bit. "Wow, my little brother is so 'scary.'"
Fuming, Tubbo let his hair fall back over his eyes as he shoved lit TNT in Wilbur's face backing away a bit. "You're going to regret this, Wil."
The TNT explodes and a message popped up in chat reading: WilburSoot was blown up by Tubbo_
Tubbo sighed in a mixture of relief and pain as he walked back to the house.
When he walked inside the first thing he saw was Ranboo crying in the corner.
(when you're allergic to water but crying is all you can do at the moment)
All color drained from Tubbo's face as he rushed over to his husband. "Ranboo, are you alright? I'm so sorry, I never should've let you go-"
Ranboo looked up at Tubbo, burns covering his cheeks. "I-it's not your fault.. It never will be.... neither of us knew what he would do..."
Tubbo cups Ranboo's face in his hands, tears welling in his eyes. "I know, it just hurts knowing I couldn't help you..."
Ranboo's expression turned a bit sympathetic. "I couldn't even help myself and you know he's probably not scared of you."
Tubbo's breathing shook and his eyes went slightly void of feeling. "He wasn't..."
Ranboo reached out and pulled Tubbo in for a hug. "Don't be so worried about me..... I only have a few cuts and burns..... you should worry for yourself more...."
Tubbo began to cry as he slumped into the hug. "But you matter more to me, Ranboo... you and Michael are my entire world..."
Ranboo patted Tubbo's head. "I understand, but.. it's not your fault, so please don't blame yourself..... blame Wilbur.."
Tubbo went silent for a moment. "...did you see the message in chat..?"
"Uhhhhhhh..... no I don't believe so....."
"...I took one of Wilbur's canon lives..."
Ranboo's expression went blank. "I-"
Tubbo breathing quickened slightly.
Ranboo slowly smiled, and Tubbo relaxed. "You did that for me?"
Tubbo flushed slightly. "Yeah..."
"How adorable." Ranboo grinned.
