GUYS im finally posting chapter 1 of my WIP fic, Tubbo and the Forgotten, to AO3, its my pet project thats been on the backburner for the better part of a year
basically: what if instead of RANBOO forgetting about things, it was everyone AROUND him who forgot about Him instead
The fact that neither Tubbo or Ranboo dropped a ‘He’s my husband’ while talking to Aimsey makes me wanna scream
cause on one hand it can say how after Ranboo’s death, or even before, their relationship has been strained and it solidifies the fact that they are essentially strangers
OR
they are just trying to protect themselves because having deep relationships and caring about other people in the dsmp causes death and destruction and ultimately they want to protect what little they have left
hey guys, can we just like, not start theorizing if a friendship has ended when it is A) none of our fucking business and B) very fucking parasocial? can we just Not start “taking sides” in a fight we currently have no clue happened or not? can we cease with the weird evidence compiling of proof that beeduo had a falling out cuz i’m gonna be real, ya’ll are sounding a lot like how p0ppytwt sounds about their freak ass ships and it’s concerning.
Hc that Tubbo let his hair grow over his eyes so Ranboo would feel more comfortable around him. He had to cut it for his job in Las Nevadas though. (It’s okay. Ranboo doesn’t mind.)
c!Tommy has a house made in the middle of the ocean right? Imagine the reason homie’s been inactive for so long cause he finally just went “okay fuck this” and goes off the grid, taking his shit and shroud (after a long ass struggle) with him.
Now imagine when c!dream escapes and he’s just like “WHERE IS TOMMY?” and everyone’s just sort of like “idk man he’s been gone for weeks, chill”
Like as far as I know c!Tubbo knows about the ocean house, (cause he was on call when it was built if I remember correctly) just not where it is, so he’s not worried cause unlike exile he knows where Tommy is this time.
And Since I wrote this stupid concept before today’s lore streams, I’m adding onto this.
//Spoilers under the keep reading
I’m including C!bench trio for this part because of the fact that the minute Dream actually escapes those three are probably going to be the first to react.
The minute Tommy hears the sirens, He’s probably panicking and messages Tubbo and Ranboo about it, and during that whole conversation Tommy just finishes it with:
“The minute you two are in danger I’m coming over there and dragging you fucks over here”
It might sound a bit forceful but holy shit he almost lost Tubbo to Dream once already, and with Wilbur back and Techno also out of Prison and knowing him plans to destroy the prison (and possibly Las Nevadas)
and don’t even get him started on seeing the beginnings of L’manburg 2.0: Burger edition!With Ranboo and Wilbur, Tommy still cares about Wilbur but Ranboo is still his friend just as much as Tubbo is, and he knows that Dream won’t hurt Wilbur (Or he atleast hopes)
So even if he won’t verbally admit it, Tommy would rather Swallow his pride and drag both of his friends to somewhere where they can at least be safe for awhile, Than have to face a devastating but possible reality of one of his best friends being dead and the other experiencing Trauma that’s grimly similar to his own.
in this concept he hasn’t given up on Wilbur, but with how he acts about Dream? He can’t risk it, Tubbo and Ranboo’s safety become his first priority.
I remember awhile ago someone pointed out that Mellohi and Cat have colors similar to Ranboo and Tubbo, and that idea fucking hurt my soul. So Imagine This time instead risking everything for the discs, This time around he’s will to risk everything to protect the two people they’re connected to.
So basically Tubbo and Ranboo decide to let Tommy drag them to the house to stay in temporarily (cause y’know they got jobs, so they can only take temporary leave) and they wait it out and see if anything happens.
When/if Sam announces the false alarm and that Dream didn’t escape, Tommy–While still being a little worried– Sees the duo off as they go back to the mainland (After Tommy twists both their arms (Not literally) to promise him that the minute either of them are in danger to let him know)
So after that whole fiasco Tubbo and Ranboo visit occasionally when wanting a break from work, having made up after talking about it on the first night Tommy dragged them to the house.
and that’s basically the whole idea.
Well at until the sirens go off again and when that happens it’s for real…
got a vivid flashback to being four years old myself and getting snow cleaned off of me with enough force to knock my whole body over. somehow it feels like the pinnacle of parental love.
