CW // Death mention, implied mental instability

Summary: Phil thinking about his sons after being put under house arrest

-------------------------------------------------------------

"Kill me Phil. Kill me."

Explosions could still be heard in the distance. Screams were now lingering in the air. Wilbur was on his knees now, silent tears streaming down his face as he struggled to withhold a sickly smile. He met mine and I could see all the pain this server has caused him. 

"Philza, kill me. Killza. Killza!"

"Wh- You're my son..!"

"Kill me Phil, look, they all want you to!"

The warmth of Wilbur's body begun to drain as he fell limp in my arms.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tears sting the back of my eyes as I look back on what happened that day. It's been nearly a month since he's been killed. The crackling of torches is now noticable as I look from the freckled sky to the wood floor, now noticing the small puddle gathered on the floor.

I've accepted his death. I knew it's what he would have wanted. Wilbur would have wanted me to move on. But it doesn't change the pain that comes whenever I hear his name or whenever I see Ghostbur floating around. I can't help but be partly responsible for what happened to him.

This darned server pushed him over the edge, I'm well aware. But it didn't come from nowhere.

I should have noticed the signs. Every time he came to me, eyes pleading for approval. When he wrote to me telling about his success with L'Manberg and him being elected for a second term. When he started to stop writing.

This server broke my son. But I wish I'd seen the cracks before it was far too late.

------------------------------------------------------

But I'm glad I still have Techno. I still have one of my sons. But they're out to get him. They hate him. My youngest hates him. I haven't seen either in a while. 

I hope Techno's doing alright. Last I saw him he was nearly executed in front of my eyes. I couldn't even help him. He had to help himself. I saw him escape. I don't know what I would've done if I had to witness the death of another son, even if it wasn't his final death. 

What I couldn't do with Wilbur, I'm trying to do with Techno. I started a new hidden house with him, far, far away from L'Manberg. It was just like old times. I remember all the fun winter days back in an old cottage we had years ago, the four of us. I wish it could have gone any other way.

Even though he's far, I know he'll come for me soon. 

-----------------------------------------------------

I haven't seen Tommy in weeks. Last I heard, he came to L'Manberg temporarily to talk with Dream's sister for a bit. I was out with Techno though. I wish I could have seen him.

I've overheard the cabinet talking about Tommy being dead. I hope it's not true. There's no way Tommy would, or even could just die like that. They never said how, at least not in earshot. I hope he's just missing. They never found a body, after all. 

I don't think I'm ready to lose another son. Tommy had so much ahead of him, but out of my three boys this server broke Tommy the most. I wish I could've helped him back in Pogtopia but I don't think he would've let me. He's not very accepting of "pity." I just wish he could stop bottling up his issues, though. It was always a big problem for him.

Maybe Tommy is far gone, but I need to bring him back.
