No matter how hard he tried, Tommy couldn't fall asleep.

He kept thinking about the fight Techno and Wilbur were having in the kitchen.

Techno's words kept replaying in his head.

”You can't just ignore the fact that we abused him for years.”

”Neglect is abuse, Wilbur.”

Hearing that made something shatter inside of Tommy.

It felt strange. Tommy couldn't figure out why it did though, it's not like he heard something new.

He knew that what Techno had said was true.

It had taken him a long time to realize just how much damage his family had actually done to him.

He could never forget the endless breakdowns and the never-ending talks with Sam that had helped him finally admit to himself that he had, in fact, been abused.

That he was not fine.

That something inside of him was broken. And it could never be fixed.

He knew that.

He had known that for a long while.

But hearing Techno acknowledge that?

Having one of the people that made Tommy's life absolutely miserable, admit that Tommy had been abused by him?

That…

That was supposed to make him feel good, right?

He finally got the confirmation he needed.

That small, stupid part of him that kept on saying that he hadn't been abused, that it was all in his head and he was just being dramatic? The part of him that believed that his family didn't mean to leave him behind, they cared for him deep down? That part of him that still had hope? It could finally shut the fuck up.

That was a good thing.

It was.

But Tommy didn't feel as good as he thought he would.

He felt worse, actually.

Because this made everything so much more real.

It meant that it was actually true.

He had been neglected.

He had been emotionally abused.

He wasn't overreacting.

It wasn't all in his head.

This was real.

His family genuinely didn't give a single fuck about him.

And Techno knew that too.

The more he thought about it the angrier Tommy got.

Why did he have to suffer?

Why did he have to have a shitty life just because some assholes decided they didn't want him anymore?

It's not his fault he was born.

I mean, come on, why have a kid if you're not going to take care of it?

What did he ever do to deserves this?

And now Techno wants to “fix things with him”?

Like, excuse me, what?

There is no “fixing things”.
