Techno was fully prepared to pull an all-nighter. He had a video to edit, a collab he was supposed to have edited completely two days from now, and quite a few things to wrap up on the DreamSMP. 

So yeah, he had quite a lot of things to do. He was perfectly fine with pulling an all-nighter. He's done it time and time again. Sure, it may not exactly healthy, but it's not like Will or Phil are going to burst into his room at 12 a.m. and force him into his bed to sleep. ...Right?

Wrong. 

Wilbur was first to enter, trying his best to be quiet, and peeking into Techno's room. He wasn't surprised to find him awake. Techno doesn't notice Wilbur's sudden presence and continued his work on editing. Wilbur opened the door a bit wider to see into Techno's room. The light from the hallway shone into his room and hit Techno, which caused him to flinch a bit and look up at Will. "Tech? What are doing still up?" Wilbur questions ruffling his own hair subconsciously, a habit Will had when he was tired or on camera. 

"Uh...editing?" Techno states, his voice raspy and tired. "Techno, I thought we agreed that you would start trying to get on a better sleeping schedule. You said you were doing better!" Wilbur whisper shouts, as not to wake or disturb Phil, Tommy, or Tubbo in the other rooms. 

"I'm doing fine Wilbur. Also, aren't you being kind of hypocritical? You're up too, you know." Techno shot back, trying to switch the blame. "Techno, I got up to go to the bathroom and get a drink. I was checking on everyone else to make sure everyone was asleep before going back to bed." 

It was probably true. Whenever one of the boys would wake up at night to go to the bathroom or get water, they would usually check on everyone else before going back to their own room. Wilbur was in his pajamas, and his hair was matted. He also had a glass of water in his hand. He had no reason to lie anyway.

Techno falters from the conversation and avoids eye contact with Wilbur. He shoves his face into his hands and heaves a loud sigh. "It just... I have a lot of work I need to catch up on, most of which I was already supposed to have done. I'm supposed to have my Pov sent to Skeppy for a collab we're doing, and I need to get onto the SMP to sort out some chests, and then I need to edit this video or I'm never going to get it finished!" Techno starts to ramble on about other things he needs to do and doesn't notice when he starts shaking. 

"Woah, Woah, Techno, you gotta calm down, man." Wilbur moves over to Techno's desk and sets down his water before pulling Techno into a hug and rubbing comforting circles into his back to calm him down. Techno continues to ramble about all his stresses and worries and continues to shake. A few tears fall from his face, but Wilbur chooses to ignore them. 

Quiet footsteps are heard outside in the hallway, until Phil peeks into the room to see Techno tense, shaking, and hyperventilating, whilst Wilbur hugs him tightly and whispers quiet comforting words to him. "Boys? What's wrong?" Phil asks quietly as he makes his way over to his sons. Techno seems to relax a little when he realizes it was just Phil, and not Tommy or Tubbo. 

Phil wraps his arms around his sons and starts to breathe in and out slowly to get Techno to mimic. It wasn't uncommon for Techno to start having a panic attack, so Phil knew a lot of ways to help him calm down and ground himself. Wilbur notices what Phil was doing, and mimics him to help Techno. Techno notices what the two are doing and start to try and match it. "There you go, Techno," Phil whispers, praising Techno, and rubbing his back. 

Techno manages to catch his breath and stop shaking. Will and Phil release their hold on Techno. Phil grabs Techno's arm and starts moving him towards his bed, while Wilbur saves all of Techno's progress on his video and shuts off his computer. Phil gets Techno to lay in bed and climbs in after him to hold onto his son; slowly running a hand through his hair. Techno visibly relaxes and melts into Phil's touch. 

After shutting off Techno's computer, Will steps out of Techno's room and into his to grab his guitar. He walks back into Techno's room and sits at the foot of his bed. Softly, he starts to strum a calming tune on his guitar to try to lull Techno to sleep and to calm any remaining stress he held. He starts to hum a subtle tune along with the melody of his guitar and looks over towards his father and twin brother to see his twin now sleeping peacefully, leaning into Phil. 

Phil appears to be on the brink of sleep, with his eyes half-lidded, and occasionally fluttering closed. Wilbur chuckles softly, and sets down his guitar on the floor, leaning it against the bed. He climbs over to the other side of his brother and snuggles up against him. "G'night Dadza, night Techno," Wil mutters as he starts to slip into sleep. "Goodnight, son," Phil says softly, as he leans his head down to rest on Techno's, and finally allows himself to drift into sleep, knowing his boys are okay.

The next morning: "AW! NO FAIR! How come I wasn't invited to the sleepover?!" Tubbo giggles at his brother and pats him on the back. "It's alright Tommy. You can always have a sleepover with me." Tommy sighs, still disappointed. "Thanks, Tubbo.." Tubbo giggles again, and turns to hug his brother. "No problem, Tommy."
