Ditch this Nation With Me

Tommy was tired. Tubbo was tired. They both carried more than their fair share of bloody and dark experiences with them, more than any teen should have to go through.
They'd thought about it a lot. It'd be a change of page, a fresh breath for their mental health. Something they both deeply needed, more than they'd admit to anyone else.
Tubbo losing his second life was the last straw.
Trudging through the constant paranoia and concern for the other's disinterest in their own health, they make it to peaceful, sleepless nights staring at the stars, sarcastic remarks exchanged quicker than lightning, barefoot races down grassy fields, and familiar jokes.
They start to feel waves of something they haven't felt in a long time.
Safety.
Maybe they'll be alright after all.
