I go La La, Lalalala La! (Tommyinnit Au)

Training arc Pog?

(1st Person PoV: Tommy's)

I woke up the next day, not feeling very poggers.

I kept waking up to nightmares about smiley faces and I couldn't sleep well.

...

Welp might as well get the day started, I thought and got up from my bed.

I went downstairs with Ares following me and saw that only Phil was at the table.

"Hey Phil....where's Techno?" I asked and sat in my usual spot.

"Out. He's going to place training dummies later so he can train. He told me to tell you that," Phil said.

Weird, why would Technoblade the Blood God, go off and train. After all, his skill set is unmatched...except maybe a certain smiley face man could beat him if it wasn't for Techno's skills in other things that weren't just fighting, I thought.

The thought of Dream made me feel like ice was crawling up my spine and I took a deep breath in order to make myself feel relaxed.

Can't afford a panic attack this early.

"Hey Phil what's for breakfast?" I asked, changing the subject.

"Here," he handed me a plate of eggs and bacon.

I looked at him weird.

"Don't tell Techno," Phil said and I laughed.

I haven't laughed in a while. Guess my humor is broken.

So I ate breakfast and went to Techno's library to grab a book, then I went to the guest room and lay down on my bed.

This time, I was going to read about Theseus and what made him so special.

And find answers to why Techno nicknamed me after him.

After reading, I was now more educated about Theseus but I still don't have an answer to why I was nicknamed that.

A man who is most known for defeating the Minotaur, being the founder/hero of Athens and after defeating said Minotaur, didn't change the sails from black to white to let his father know that he was safe and alive. Great name, Techno, I thought.

I set the book down and stared at the wall.

I honestly don't remember when was the first time that Techno began to call me that. I must have been really young and before Wilbur and I left.

So before nine years old.

I opened the book again and began to reread the Minotaur part.

I must have reread at least ten times before I heard Ares whimpering.

"What's wrong boy?" I asked and he began to spin a circle in front of the door.

"Oh you want to go. Hold on," I got up from my bed, place the book down and went to open the door.

We went outside and Ares went to his usual place to do his business.

As I was waiting for him to finish, I found myself thinking about the myth that I just read.

How cool it must have been fight a creature like that. To wield a weapon to defend yourself.

Dream suddenly flashed in my head and I closed my eyes to shake the thoughts out of my head.

Dream did mention that he's coming next month to check on Techno and look around his house. What if he finds me this time? I can't fight him! I tried many times in the past and failed! I'm down to one life because of him! I thought angrily.
