Tommy always found his nannies and house workers very odd.

His parents often worked day and night so he was often in the company of the hired help. As time past, he found a connection between them: It was always a person who'd give him odd things like arrows and muffin or a fashionable person that'd lecture him about 'being good' while insulting him.

It was the same when he had a tutor and gardener, and when he had a baby sitter and a house cleaner. One would tell him to paint on the walls and the other would hit his head for doing so.

It didn't really matter since both would always give him cool things. Tommy even got to catch bugs' in his neighbor's garden (she was the fashionable lecturer type.)

Tommy was hanging out with the neighbor's boy, Toby. It was the strangest thing when he insisted to be called Tubbo (as well as a lawyer), but Tommy went along with it.

They were together in the backyard of Tommy's house. Tommy had told Tubbo to gather all the sticks he could so they could build a grand chair fit for a king (obviously alluding to himself).

"Tubbo! Pass me some sticks!" Tommy shouted as he began constructing the legs of his thrown.

Tubbo happily obliged and handed over a armful of sticks.

"So," Tubbo began as he looked for more sticks, "how many sticks do you reckon we need?"

"A lot, a lot of sticks. This throne needs to be massive."

They continued to gather many more sticks until it was as tall as their knees and they had small cuts all over their arms. Too bad that wasn't what they were aiming for.

Tommy groaned, "Tubbo! You were supposed to get more fucking sticks!" A faint 'language!' was heard in the distance but it could've just been the wind.

"I got all the sticks in the backyard! Not my fault your stupid tree won't drop any!" Tubbo complained, kicking at the stump of the tree.

It was a sight with the next thing that happened. All of a sudden, all of the leaves fell. In a sudden flurry, without any warning, every last green leaf fell. A lot fell on both Tommy and Tubbo, who waved them off with a sense of amazement in their eyes. Small twigs fell with it, but the tree was bare. Not a single bit of green was on the tree after a minute. The dark, twisting branches were in full view.

It was a sight to see a very alive tree without a single leaf in the middle of summer, and the strangest thing that has ever happened to the both of them.

"POG!" Tommy exclaimed as he started to pick up the twigs off the ground.

"Tubbo, get over here! Help me pick them up!"

Tubbo ran from his position in front of the tree and went to help Tommy.

Tommy accumulated more scratches on his arms as he helped sift through the leaves for the twigs.

Unknowingly, however, the small cuts clotted rather quickly and seemed to disappear the next second.

Almost as if his injuries were healing all on their own.

But that didn't matter! There was a thrown to be built!
