Bro idk don't ask
________________________________________A single tear fell down my face. I never expected to actually see them again. I thought I wouldn't ever have to do it again.

I heard Wilbur mutter a string of curses, it reminded me of what I used to be like. Back then. Before the exile. Before Mumbo. Before my life now.

"Tommy- I" Techno started before a sob broke through. That scared me slightly. I'd never seen Techno cry before. "I can't believe you're alive. He- he told us you'd-"

I gritted my teeth. No way was I gonna let them get to me. Not after they'd both betrayed me, abandoned me, left me to rot all by myself. No. They should have treated me better. My older brothers should have treated me better.

"No." They looked shocked. "No, you 2 don't get to sit there and act like you didn't leave me. You don't get to sit there and act like you didn't even think to help when I was going through stuff and when I needed you most. You guys and dad, you could've done so much more to prevent what happened but you didn't. You let me rot and you let me almost get driven to suicide."

I could see the anger behind their sad expressions. They were both selfish, as much as they're "sad" about what happened to me and "relieved" I'm still alive, I know they both hate getting called out on their bull crap.

"Tommy that's not fair-" Wilbur tries to start.

"Yes it is."

"It's not fair. I couldn't help you. And Techno and dad, you know they disagreed with our ideas. It's not fair to be mad at them when they couldn't help you." He finished. Selfish as always.

"That's interesting, because Ranboo had opposing morals too. Mate, Ranboo was the right hand man to the guy that made my life awful! He was still there for me! He still cared about me, and I'll be honest, he's the reason I'm not dead!" I yelled.

I knew that would hurt them. Especially Will. Everyone in our family - everyone back in the life I had left behind - were traumatised. We all failed at one point and we all regret it. We've all regretted something to a point where we couldn't take it and Will was one of the few who had no support when it happened. His situation was like mine back then.

Except it wasn't. Back then everyone was on his side. He had me, Techno, Niki, Tubbo, Fundy. We were all there. Sure, everything he had worked for was falling apart around him but we were there. I was there. I could've helped. I tried to help, even.

"Tommy please don't do this! Don't block us out!" Techno pleaded.

I spotted Mumbo in the distance and sent a silent message to ask him to save me from this situation.

"Tommy, you're being ridiculous. You need to stop making this about you - we all went through a bad time there." Wilbur tried to sound stern.

"Did you? Because as far as I know you were in the afterlife planning a long term revenge plan that would've ruined my life, Techno was doing the same- just not in the afterlife, so was dad, my best friend was ignoring me and you were all - once again - letting Dream manipulate and bully you." I was on the verge of a full out panic attack.

"That doesn't matter Tommy!" Techno yelled out, gripping at the hilt of his sword. "We're here now! We want to protect you!"

"Guess you should've thought about that before you tried to kill my best friend and I." I muttered. That would've hit him hard.

"TOMMY! That's uncalled for! He apologised and Tubbo forgave him. Why can't you move past that?" Wilbur yelled

"Because he never apologised to me! You know what it's like? Seeing your big brother who you've looked up to your entire life - even when he abandoned you - shoot at your best friend? That's traumatising, Will!" I'd had it with these 2.

"We're all traumatised here! Why do you act like you're special?" Wilbur really had lost his temper.

I knew what was coming and quite frankly I didn't want it to happen. I'd left that behind me when I went to find Scott and asked him to help me, when I'd faked that tower, when I'd written that letter to Ranboo.

I could see Mumbo closer to us now, he was almost hovering to make sure I was ok.

I didn't have to deal with this. With toxic older brothers who just think that they're always correct. With once-sweet memories that have now spoiled and turned sour.

I sighed, took a few deep breaths, and left.

A/N

Only context I'm gonna give is that during exile, Tommy ran away and changed his name to Grian. 

Bro idk this was originally English homework that took a wrong turn.
