Crimson Pawn (C!Dream x Fem!Reader)

Five - Brothers and Morals

TW: I'm pretty sure it's just a bit of swearing, please comment if I missed something though!

Wilbur's POV

"Alright men, let's get building!" I shouted, watching my loyal soldiers continue building the back wall with the new pile of blackstone we had gathered. We were almost finished. I was proud. Proud of these boys, proud of the walls, proud of this nation.

There was a blissful moment, watching as the young boys before me messed around. My son, my brother, and some kid Tommy was best friends with. They were pretending to sword fight with the trowels. I didn't even yell at them. They were happy, they were smiling, laughing. It's hard to do that in tense times such as these, but any moment like this was welcomed.

That moment of peace ended when I heard Eret shouting from the lookout tower.

"Wilbur, we've got company!" He yelled. I nodded to the other three, who had heard and gather around me. Eret climbed down the ladder and joined us in our walk to the gate. They all formed a triangle formation behind me, as I led them to meet our guests.

At the lead stood Dream, clad in black dream, a forest green hoodie, and his signature mask. Behind him were his right hand men, George and Sapnap.

"Oh, hello, L'Manchildburg residents," Dream said. I winced, but quickly covered it up. The audacity this human had to insult our nation was simply too great.

"Dream! I didn't expect to see you around these parts. What brings you to our side of the world?" I asked. He had no reason to be on our territory.

"Oh, I was just showing our newest recruit around!" Dream says enthusiastically. He steps aside, revealing another person behind him. "Wilbur, this is-"

"Y/N?"

Y/N's POV

"Y/N? What are you doing here, and with them nonetheless?" Wilbur asked, shocked to see you there.

"Wilbur? I could ask you the same thing! I thought you were 'starting a nation'!" You said, shocked to see your brother here. Tommy poked his head out from behind Wilbur.

"Y/N? OH MY GOD, Y/N! I can't believe you came! I thought you would be like Techno and hate the whole 'starting a nation' thing because, well, government and shit, but you're here! Let me show you around, I can show you the Camarvan and the trees and the walls, oh the walls! I did most of the work myself, Tubbo and Fundy were just cheering me on because I'm a big man and did a big job-"

"Tommy!" You go up to him, shaking him out of his rambling. He stops and looks at you. "Tommy, I- I'm not here to join L'Manburg. It goes against my morals, Tommy. Also, who are Tubbo and Fundy...?"

A brunette with a large smile and a fox - a walking, talking fox - lean out and wave to you.

"Tubbo is my best friend, a pretty poggers person! He's the brown haired one, and Fundy is the fox. He's Wilbur's son!" Tommy said, loud as usual. You tried to understand how Wilbur had a fox for a son, but instantly gave up. Tommy suddenly processed what you had said. "Wait, wait, you aren't joining L'Manburg? Why not? It's a pretty poggers country if I say so myself, and I'm always right-."

"Tommy. I already told you. It goes against my morals. I'm not here to join your country." You firmly stood your ground.

"Y/N, you've got a small predicament on your hands. A nation may be against your morals, but Dream is against us! Your brothers! You need to think this through. If- if you don't join us, then we want war. Yeah, yeah! War!" Tommy said, getting more sure of himself by the second. Wilbur face palmed, turning Tommy around and whispering to him. You heard every word, because seemingly your own brothers forgot your innate ability to hear everything.
