Smplive Shorts

Dad

Ty is playing minecraft with Junky until a certain someone joins.
(the smpmap is still available for them to be on in this story.)

"Ty! I caught a name tag! What should I use it on?" Junky asked, his character in the game shifting to stare at said boy.

"I dunno- a dog or something?" He replied, shrugging, despite Junky unable to see his movements.

The two were chilling on the smplive map. They were fishing and streaming. They didn't really catch anything great, mainly fish, although sometimes one of them will reel in something they both deem "a good catch." At the moment, it was really late for them both, but it was a weekend so they didn't mind.

Junky threw his hook back into the small lake they were both fishing in. "How's it like working as an unpaid intern?" He asked, a smirk on his face.

"It's... okay. Schlatt and Connor are actually nice when they're not scamming or plotting anything." Ty answered. He reeled something in after his bobber went down, only to get another pufferfish.

"Are you kidding me?! I already have 5!" He threw his back in, pouting. Junky laughed at that.

"Aww man you suck!"

They continued to talk until a voice interrupted them.

Schlatt had joined the call.

"Hey what are you kids doing up so late?" He asked the two. Schlatt himself had just finished participating in one of Sneegs Mario Kart streams, and was about to head off when he noticed the two boys still awake. "Isn't it like- in the morning for you both?"

The two boys' chats were now spamming Schlatts name and his minecraft skins head. The usual actions the fans did whenever he appeared in any stream.

Ty looked at the time. Schlatt was right. It was quite early in the morning. He didn't even realize it, but now after it was pointed out, he was a bit tired.

"Yeah. But we're just fishing and chilling." Junky answered, pulling back his fishing line. A salmon.

"You two have school," it was Saturday morning, meaning they actually had today and Sunday, "you should head to bed soon- Junky, Ty."

Junky let out an audible yawn. "Yeah. I might actually head off." Ty nodded.

"You too, Ty."

He rolled his eyes. Schlatt's been acting a lot like a father figure lately.

"Okay, dad."

"Oh-" Junkys eyes widened.

And it was silent. An awkward and uncomfortable silence for Ty. He just called Schlatt dad. At this point, chat was screaming and spamming multiple messages. It was a simple sentence, but quite shocking to everyone.

Sure, there were jokes of Ty being 'adopted' by Schlatt and basically being his new child, but this was unexpected. Sorta like when one calls their teacher 'mom' or says 'you too' after being told to enjoy their meal.

"Goodnight!" He quickly left minecraft and the discord call, ending his stream in a hurry.

"Ohohohoho!" Junky started to laugh. Now it was just him and Schlatt in the call. "Chat did you hear that? Ty called Schlatt dad! Hey- Jschlatt how do you feel about that?" He asked, very excited over the events that just occured.

Schlatt stayed silent for a few seconds until he responded, "I'm a fuckin' dad now. I can't handle this fucking responsibility.." he whispered, causing Junky to burst out laughing.

Then his stream ended after he said a quick goodnight to his viewers.

Needless to say, Schlatt then on started to call Ty names more often such as 'kid', 'bud,' and 'son.'
