Father Figure

Election Results

Wilbur rushed Tommy towards the stage, along with the other candidates. "Get to your places, this thing is starting soon!" Tommy growled as Wilbur pushed him forward. Wilbur stuck his tongue out at him. Tommy chuckled, but tried to hide it.

Everyone was talking, but Fundy whispering to Niki was what caught Tommy's attention. "Have you seen Schlatt?" Niki shrugged in response. Tommy started to wonder where he was as well, but those thoughts were quickly wiped away as they all walked up on stage.

Wilbur stopped the whole group. Tommy peeked around him to see Schlatt standing in the middle of the stage. Schlatt slowly turned around to look at Wilbur. "Oh, hey." Wilbur offered a small smile. "You... came. You actually came."

Schlatt shrugged. "Yeah. I did." Tommy hit Wilbur in the shoulder. "We need to move, this thing's startin' soon." Wilbur nodded. Everyone looked up to Schlatt gasping.

Tommy's head shot up to see Schlatt staring straight at him. Tommy gulped. Everyone else looked at Tommy as well, just as confused as he was. Tommy glanced up at Wilbur, who was staring at Schlatt with an unreadable expression.

Tommy offered a small smile to Schlatt, not knowing exactly what to do. Schlatt just kept staring at him with a look of shock on his face. Suddenly a voice pulled everyone out of their trances.

"What'd I miss?"

Everyone turned around to see the one and only George standing there. Quackity jumped towards him. "GODDAMNIT GEORGE, YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE HERE AN HOUR AGO!" Wilbur grabbed Tommy's shoulder, pushing him towards their mics. "Let's hurry."

Tommy bumped into Schlatt. "Oh, sorry." Schlatt widened his eyes, staring at him. Tommy looked down, noticing something about Schlatt's fingers. He looked back up at Schlatt about to say something, but Wilbur was already pushing him away.

Tommy almost fell into his mic, but luckily caught himself. "Not a good start to this," he breathed. He looked to the left of him to see Quackity and George arguing in hushed tones. Looking towards the crowd he could see mostly everyone who lived in the smp. Tommy bit his lip as he looked for Phil and Techno.

His search was interrupted by Wilbur. "Tommy, we're starting in a few, you ready?" Tommy thought back to the conversation he had with Tubbo on their bench. He grinned up at Wilbur. "Of course." Wilbur smiled. "Like that confidence."

Wilbur whipped around, starting to talk to Niki and Fundy. Tommy turned around to look at Schlatt once more. As soon as he made eye contact, Schlatt turned away. Tommy looked back down at Schlatt's fingers, then his own. "We both have hoofs...?"

"WELCOME EVERYONE!"

Tommy whipped around, gripping his mic stand. Wilbur had his arms in the air, grinning as the crowd cheered. Tommy spotted Tubbo in the front row, holding a thumbs up. Tommy smiled. "At least one of my family members is here."

Tommy filtered out Wilbur's speech, gripping his mic nervously. His eyes trained on Tubbo. Most of this was just gonna be Wilbur talking, and Tommy didn't know if he could handle that. Apparently Fundy couldn't either, cause he yelled out, "Oh get on with it, old man!"

Everyone laughed, and even Tommy let out a small chuckle. Wilbur shot a glare at Fundy, but got out the results nevertheless. Tommy bit his lip. Wilbur cleared his throat, opening his file.

"Okay, I have with me the election results of the four parties: Swag2020, Pog2020, Coconut2020, and Schlatt2020." Fundy interrupted with a cheer that was quickly hushed by Niki. Wilbur grinned, going back to his speech.

"I have with me, in my possession, the winners and by what percentage; now the turnout of this election was 220 thousand votes." A collective wave of 'wow's and 'woah's swept over everyone. "But there's only a few people in the crowd, what happened?" Wilbur ignored Quackity's joke.
