⚠️⚠️TW panic attack sort of i think⚠️⚠️

"I regret to inform you all that-"
He glanced at Dream, who stood behind him, arms crossed.
The President swallowed hard, facing the audience.

"-that I am going to have to exile the Vice President, Tommyinnit."
Tears swelled his eyes, threatening to fall. A loud ringing in his ears partially blocked the angry, disappointed friends of him and Tommy. Dream made an excited sound and jumped in the air.

Tubbo slapped his hand over his mouth. He had promised Tommy be wouldn't exile him, but...
He didnt want to look at Tommy, his best friend. He had said he wouldnt become the next Schlatt-
"TUBBO!"
Tubbo screwed his eyes shut fast. The distressed sound of Tommy yelling for him strained his ears. Tubbos body was shaking, it was getting harder to breathe. He found his eyes open themselves and he looked straight ahead. In his peripherals, he saw Tommys face. The brunette slowed his breathing and calmed himself, making sure no tears came. Everything went quiet.

"Tubbo..."
He locked eye contact with Tommy, removing his hand from his face. Tubbo fixed his tie, taking a deep breath in. "Tommy. You have been exiled, please leave." (whatdidhesayyy?😳)

Tommy scoffed, offended. "Tubbo, you- How could you-"

"Get out of my country, Tommy." The coldness of his voice cloaked the unsteadiness of it. Tubbos mouth wavered. Dream jumped off the podium and pointed a crossbow to Tommys head. "You heard the president, Tommy." Dream smirked. Tommy stepped back, not knowing what to do.

He looked up at Tubbo, making a disgusted face. "How could you, Tubbo?" He shook his head, yanking his bandana off his neck. He tossed it and turned away, walking and quickly turning into a sprint out of L'Manberg.

Tubbo swallowed, choking back tears. His mouth forced itself into a frown, eyebrows twitching. He sighed, holding a hand up and coughing for attention. It went silent.

"So- with that being done, I-I'd like to promote Quackity as the new Vice President. Thats all." Quackity did some kind of a celebratory dance and quickly stopped when he saw Tubbos expression.
"You good, Tubbo?"

"Fine," Tubbo walked away, not waiting for comfort.

As he walked he gradually got faster, eventually running. He had no idea where he was going.
I have to get away.

Tubbo slowed to a stop about halfway through a forest past Boomerville. He slid his back down a tree, huddling his knees to his chest and practically cradling himself. His breathing got hesvier and his vision clouded, he put his hands over his face.

His mind kept travelling back to earlier. His eyes were open wide in his palms and he was crying. He couldn't tell what emotions were going through his body, only that he was guilty. He started coughing uncontrollably, scaring himself.

Tubbo screamed. He hated this feeling. He wanted his best friend back.

Why?
Why did you do it?
You said-
You promised to him you wouldn't.
But you did-
What kind of a friend are you?

Tommy removed the dirt to create an opening, just to be closed off again. He lit a torch, illuminating the small space. His eyes immediately went to the makeshift stairwell, still lined with buttons. Tommy slowly walked down, hand grazing the wall.

His footsteps echoed as he continued further into Pogtopia. Oh, how I didn't miss this place, he thought bitterly. Buttons were still placed everywhere, floor, walls, ceiling. The lanterns were broken and it was dark. Tommy passed prime corner, greeted at the bottom by the fox Wilbur gave to Niki, Mushroom. He smiled and pet it.

Tommy coughed, dust lurking to his nostrils. He walked to the pit, scrunching up his face. "It stays in the pit," Techno had repeated to him. The words once laced with a friendliness in some way were now only begging for Tommys rage. An outburst.

Tommy shook his head, turning and walking away. He took a deep breath, taking in the stale smell. He walked down into the second ravine that intruded through the original, finding the tunnel he and Tubbo built. He walked briskly through it, eventually finding the library and other things Tubbo built.

Tommy noticed it was mostly empty, except for a few chests and books/quills. He picked one up, testing a quill to see if it had ink. He started writing. Writing about things he and Tubbo did, all the wars the had won, Tubbo becoming president.

The words he wrote slowly got more bitter and forced like scribbles of nonsense. He wrote something and began to scribble on the remaining pages all the way to 100. He began to smile widely, the corners of his mouth twitching. Tommy threw the book, it landing with a thunk and sliding across the floor. He drew his knees to his chest, eyes wide. He clawed at his hair in frustration. What the fuck is happening?

He rocked himself, thinking quietly. Suddenly, he stopped.

I'm going to save Tubbo.
