"This is certainly a sight to see." Scott commented as he observed the situation. Tommy was hanging upside down with his ankle stuck in a tree branch and couldn't get down.

Tubbo tried to help him but couldn't get close enough because of the small branches sticking out everywhere and his easily damaged bee wings.

Tommy snarled, flapping his tiny wings furiously in annoyance. "Just help me, you dickhead."

Tubbo landed next to Scott, who had crossed his arms. "You know I can help you, but why should I?"

Tommy began cursing Scott while simultaneously pleading with Tubbo for assistance. Tubbo responded that he couldn't help because of all the small branches that could harm the bee's wings.

Scott's head began to hurt as the blond Avian was mid-sentence, and the Starborn soon realized he was suffering from a severe headache again.

He fired a purple star beam at the base of the tree and it toppled over, giving Tommy a chance to set himself free.

Scott grabbed his head and left without saying anything else. The two teenagers looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Scott walked all the way to the other side of the valley where his house was and threw himself on his bed. Irritated, he put his pillow over his head and tried to ignore the headache.

After a while, he kicked off his shoes and crawled all the way under the covers.

Scott must have fallen asleep somewhere because he woke up when the door to his house opened and someone was walking in.

The faint sound of the ruffling of feathers was heard, and Scott's bed dipped a little as someone came to sit on the edge of his bed.

Philza

He must have heard from Tubbo and Tommy that he had suddenly walked off after grabbing his head in response to the sudden pain.

Philza seemed to be standing up because Scott's bed went back up slightly as Elytrian's weight disappeared.

The Starborn knew that Philza was working on his "evil" arc and was busy giving everyone the stuff they wanted. That made them kind of dependent on him. But he would never help someone who was in pain or sick and then hold it over their head.

After a while, the door to Scott's house opened again, but this time he heard two pairs of footsteps. Compared to the other pair, one set of footsteps was quieter.

Scott peered out from under his covers when something was placed next to his bed. Although his headache had subsided by this point, it was still present and still painful.

There was some food and drink standing on his bedside table.

Out of the corner of his eye, the purple-haired man saw something else. It was a trident.

A smile formed on Scott's face, and he made a mental note that he would pay Sneeg later when he felt better.

-

It was night when Scott finally left his house. He had eaten the food and drink Philza and Sneeg had left behind and was feeling better again.

He was relieved that the headache from earlier had disappeared.

In the Starborn's inventory was a barrel, some dark blue wool, some concrete, and the last thing in there was the payment for Sneeg.

Because the Inchling had left the trident wrapped ribbon, the Starborn wanted to give him his payment in a nice way.

Soon, Scott had made a small dark blue sheep made of wool and concrete, holding a barrel

with the payment.
