New Times (Fanfic Version)

Half blind

Tom couldn't help it. He smiled and giggled while taking the tiny boys hand and lightly shaking it.
"You probably already know who I am!" Tom said cheerfully.
"Edd said you were a bad man who wanted to take me away..." Tord said, suddenly getting a bit scared.
"Well...I can't really take you away." Tom said, shrugging and standing back up.
"He tells really funny stories!" Lanie said with a big grin. This caught Tord's attention.
"Stories?"

//The next day w/ Gray and Jet//

Gray woke up and slowly lifted his eyelids open. He turned to where he was laying on his back and opened his eyes all the way to see Jet right in his face. Gray screamed and backed up to the headboard of the bed, pulling the covers up with him.
"HOLY SHIT YOU ADORABLE BEAST WHAT THE FUCC!?" Gray screamed as Jet rolled his eyes.
"We're getting Tom and Tord back, we change Tord back and we live happily ever after! Now put some pants on and come on..." Jet said, walking out the room. Gray blushed and blinked a few times before getting ready for the day. (you know being an all-powerful demon you'd think you wouldn't have to do all this but...you'd be wrong!)

Gray stepped out the room and walked down to the lobby to see Jet reading on the floor with his back to the floor and legs on the wall. The hair that always hung in his face was coming back and he could see his black and red eye scanning the pages with his other. He blushed. He walked over and looked down at Jet.
"So can you see from your other eye oooorrr?" Gray asked, leaning down over Jet with his hands behind his back. Jet yelped and put the book over his stomach and fixing his hair to where it went over his eye again.
"That's pretty personal man..." Jet said, getting up. Gray and Jet both had very different opinions when it came to personal questions.
"How? All I asked was if you're like...half blind?" Gray said, looking to the right to think about his question.

Jet sighed.
"No...Gray I'm not half blind...well...Tord is cause he kinda lost his eye entirely, but I'm not...there's really no reasoning to my eye I just like to keep it hidden cause I know people will stare and I don't feel like going through that alright..." Jet said, surprisingly calmly.
Gray stayed silent for a bit, watching Jet lean down and pick up the book.
"Why don't you like having serious conversations?" Gray asked in a stern tone. Jet dropped the book down, looking startled.
"That's...um...also personal..." Jet said, picking up the book once again.
"I have a fear of being alone, I used to have a teddy bear before I died, I love math, spas are fucking amazing, my favorite color is pink, I ate my twin before I was born(look it up it's a real thing), I painted my nails as a teen, Disney is the shit, I love kids, if I could I'd wear a skirt just to see how it feels and It took me 15 years to learn how to tie shoes! There! My darkest secrets! Your turn..." Gray said, in an even more stern tone.

Jet was a bit shocked that Gray trusted him with this. He found it cute he liked pink and had a fear of being alone, guess that explains the whole Jet thing. Jet looked down for a bit before taking a deep breath.
"I...am a lot of Tord's...recent...problems...I'm his fear of trumpets...don't ask...most of his anxiety...the reason he cuts...his habit of biting and sucking his thumb while stressed and...another I'd really rather not say..." Jet said, hanging his head and rubbing his other arm.
"Why do you wear gloves?" Gray asked making Jet look up.
"You don't have to anymore since you no longer have that robot arm..." Gray said, walking a bit closer to Jet and reaching for his arm before he jerked it away.
"I-I pretty much just told you! I'm the part of Tord th-that cuts okay!" Jet yelled, now starting to tear up.
"I-I'm sexually innocent! I act tough but I'm not! I sometimes think of what it would be like to be a drag queen! I like to catfish people, I think it's funny! I'M THE PART OF TORD THAT HAS A CRU-" Jet quickly covered his mouth. He almost said his darkest secret. That he was that sliver of Tord that had a crush on Gray.
Gray looked at him confused.
"OKAY! Let's just...talk about getting Tom and Tord back now alright..." Jet said, looking down. Gray slowly nodded, confused at what Jet was gonna say.

//With Tom//

"Tordy I told you to not talk to that evil man!" Edd said, hugging Tord for all his life. Tord hugged back, confused.
"But he did not do anything? He told me just funny story...Lanie is aloud to talk with him!" Tord said, pulling away from the hug.
"That's what he wants you to think! That he's nice and caring but he's really a monster! Lanie is aloud because I don't care about her now that I have you!" Edd said, smiling at Tord.
"But... I like Lanie...why you no like her?" Tord said, sad and confused.
"She's annoying anyway..." Edd said dully, rolling his eyes. Then you could hear little pitter patter of tiny feet running away from the scene.
"Promise me you won't talk to him anymore..." Edd said with a sad expression.
"Yea yea, promise..." Tord said, looking behind him, tugging his arms. Edd knew what he wanted.
"Alright then...go play" Edd said, letting go of Tord. He ran down the hall to try and find Lanie. When he did she was in Tom's room crying her eyes out as she hugged him. Tord peeked in and heard what she was saying.
"H-He said he di-didn't care about m-me!" Lanie said, sobbing into Tom's shoulder.
"Well guess what." Tom said, pulling her away from his shoulder.
"Wha-at" She replied.
"I care about you...a lot okay?" Tom said with a smile, wiping Lanie's tears away.
"I cares about you too!" Tord yelled, walking into the room.
"Tord! You aren't supposed to be in here!" Lanie said, jumping off Tom. Tord sighed and crossed his arms, swaying his hips to one side.
"I gets it...Edd trying to be good and what not...but I not stupid...he's the mean one here...HE the monster...ass..." Tord said, looking back at the door with a smug look of anger. Tom laughed.
"HOLY SHIT KID! YOU'RE FUCKING AMAZING!" Tom yelled, covering his face as he laughed. Tord giggled and sat on the bed.
"You nice though!" Tord said with a smile.
