↳ LOGSTEDSHIRE had become its own cute little town with a small library and town hall. Tommy had come to terms with the fact that he wouldn't be able to return without force. Things were calm for now, only the two of them lived there. Tommy and Oliver to be specific. Wilbur would sometimes stay over, but no one else really bothered to stay long. Dream visited them pretty much every day. He would take Tommy's things and explode them as usual, which made him stop wearing expensive armor and hide his diamond tools. He was becoming okay with it in a weird way, it was as if Dream had brainwashed him. He accepted his 'friendship' as if it was the best he could get.
Oliver was starting to believe that maybe, just maybe taking L'Manberg would be a good idea. It irritated her that Tommy had to suffer at the hands of loneliness. She watched as he slowly became a different person, wild and untrusting. He would startle awake, come to her crying on occasion, and fade out from her life. She wanted her best friend back, no, she wanted Tommy back.
And so, she did the only logical thing and called for a meeting with Dream. To say that went bad would be an understatement. Not only did Dream say no, he also added in insults, about them just being children, that just pissed her off. She nearly stabbed her axe through his abdomen, resisting only for the sake of Tommy's safety. Dream repeated over and over,"Tommy will never set foot in the Dream SMP for however long he lives. I don't care if there's a natural disaster or a sudden attack, he will not enter."
Tommy wasn't the same after he was exiled all that time ago. He was quiet and obedient, it didn't feel right. Oliver missed the loud, obnoxious voice that would always bug her at the most inconvenient times. She really wanted Dream to just relax and let him visit L'Manberg at the very least so he could start to brighten up again. Sitting there with him, listening to his newest, gifted disc wasn't right. His face was blank unless his eyes glanced in her direction.
"Tommy.."
"I told you I'm fine, I just kind of miss L'Manberg. I really miss Tubbo. You being here is great, but I still miss my other friends," There was not a single ounce of hope in his voice. He sounded worn down and tired. They had been working all day to organize his new chest room and before she even arrived back from the mainland with materials, he was out mining for diamonds. His eyes rested dark, smudges of soot and dirt on his face and hands.
"I know, I'm working on it. I promise."
"Thank you, Olive. I'm serious when I say this so listen close," He sucked in a quick breath hesitantly,"You're really important to me. I don't show it, but I appreciate you."
Oliver nearly choked from pure sudden shock. She waited for a joke to follow, confused when it didn't happen. Tommy was not one to get all soft on anyone, even his closest friends. She glanced towards the sand between her fingers,"O-Oh."
"Yeah, I appreciate you and you know what? When I build up this new nation, I'm going to take down Dream for both of us. Fuck Dream and fuck the discs, I'm taking back L'Manberg once and for all. The wall will come down and I want you by my side when I do it too," Tommy glanced over towards his friend, a confident smile displayed on his lips,"We'll take it back together, yeah?"
