the keys are in the back door (something's wailing in my chest) by Love_Lucigoosey

Summary
"Oh my god, what-?!" Wait. Tommy furrowed his eyebrows, ignoring every instinct screaming at him to get away, and peered over his arm to get a good look at whoever was in front of him. He recognized the voice, and that wasn't Dream's voice. No, that wasn't Dream's voice at all. Relief slammed into him all at once, legs almost buckling as the adrenaline dropped away from him just as quickly as it had come as he lifted his gaze, taking in the tall, lanky form of an enderman.
Well. Enderman hybrid.
"Ranboo?" The word came out slurred, only because his tongue felt frozen solid.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry I'msorryI'msorryI'msorry Dream please pleasepleaseplease-"
"You're sorry," Dream mocked. "It's a little too late for sorry, Tommy. If you're sorry, you have to show me. If you're sorry, you have to prove that I can trust you, and that's gonna take time." His head tilted downwards, the mask's hollow smile taunting Tommy further as he forced blurry eyes to focus on the man standing over him. "I have time, though. All the fucking time in the world."

Summary
"I don't want to see you, I don't want to talk to you, I don't want to be your friend," Dream deadpanned. George ran his tongue over his lips and ignored the way his heart sank to his gut.
"Bullshit?!" Sapnap spat, incredulous.
"Why, Dream?" George chimed in. "At least tell us why. Did we do something?"

i'm trembling in the eye (of the only storm i've ever known) by Love_Lucigoosey
Fandoms: Dream SMP, Minecraft (Video Game)

Summary
Dream had left him alone, told him to fill the craters and fix up the absolutely destroyed remains of Logstedshire, and Tommy had tried. He really had. He'd gathered as much dirt as he could (and tried to resist the impulse to build another fucking tower with it) and had taken to the smallest crater he could find, just to start with. It had taken him hours to fill it and by the time he was done Tommy wanted to die.
He'd stopped to rest, just for a moment. Sprawled back in the grass, hugging his stomach and trying not to scream out in agony. He didn't know how much time passed, just lying there, but he knew he didn't get back up. He physically could not make himself get back up. The sheer thought of moving hurt like a bitch.
"What the hell is this?"
Fuck-

Summary
"You don't have to do it at all," Tommy choked out, spitting a glob of blood onto the carpet purposefully and glowering up at the man before him, defeated but still enraged. "Abusive prick."
Something darkened in Dream's expression at that. He stopped. Stilled. Stared.
"You shouldn't throw words like that around, Tommy…"

Summary
"I don't know what the hell's gotten into you or where this attitude came from but you better check it right fucking now because I am not in the mood to deal with your bullshit, understand?"
"I understand," Tommy assured, desperately wanting to shove Dream's hands off of him, to push him away, to hit him, to do something - but he knew that was a line he couldn't cross. Words were something else entirely, but he had long learned to keep his hands off of the man. "I just don't care. I'm not exactly in the mood to deal with your bullshit either. But I'm never really in th-"
There it was. The first hit.

Summary
"Tommy," Dream muttered, dangerously soft, "do I have to explain myself and my rules to you?"
Tommy swallowed, heart pounding, arm aching in Dream's vice like grip. "N- No."
"So when I tell you to do something," Dream continued, "what do you do?"
"I- do it."
"And what do you not do?"
"D- Don't ask why."

Summary
"This is what you wanted, right?" He wheezed. "You wanted a dog. Dogs bite." He rolled his head back on his shoulders and looked up at the man, trying hard to stifle his laughter as his nerves twisted and turned against him, anxiety spreading like wildfire despite the grin on his face, the satisfaction that he felt. He was both on top of the world and trapped under the ground, digging himself a deeper and deeper grave with each passing second.
With dread and glee pooling in his gut, Tommy knew he deserved whatever was coming next.
"Bad dogs bite," Dream finally spoke, soft and angry.

It had been nearly a year and a half since Tommy had been exiled from L'Manberg. And it had been exactly a year since he'd seen another person's face, heard another person's voice, except for Dream's.

"Ranboo?" He mumbled suddenly, voice slurred with exhaustion.
"Yeah?"
"You make me feel safe," Tommy whispered. "S'kinda confusing, I think. But I like it."
Ranboo didn't know what to say. His heart melted, swelled and cracked and sank and soared all at once. Tommy was asleep in his arms within seconds, and Ranboo didn't have the chance to say anything.

Summary
"N- No, please, please, pl- lease d- do- please d- don't hu- urt m- me-" He focused on Ranboo, for just the barest fraction of a second. And yet, he didn't really focus, because his eyes didn't linger, and for a horrible moment he seemed to look right through Ranboo, blankly, like he was somewhere else, like he was seeing something entirely different… or… somebody…
Ranboo understood at once what was happening. Tommy was still asleep.

Summary
A year and a half passed. Fundy learned how to start living his life again, but he was still so angry. He opened his new bakery, with the assistance of Niki, who had officially adopted him about three months after Puffy had disappeared. He had Quackity, who he considered at this point to be one of his best friends. Some days he felt like he could be happy, like he could go on. Some days he felt like he was only going through the motions, and he hated himself for that.
He wondered if that was how Wilbur felt. Like he was living for nothing, with everything to lose.

In the distance, he could hear Dream yelling for Sam. He couldn't keep Tommy's name off his lips these days, damn near begging for him to come visit.
Prime hoped they were smart enough to keep Tommy away. Dream was pissed.

"Well, I really like what you've done with the place."
Prime froze, lifting his arm from his face at once and looking up.
His eyes widened slightly at the sight of the girl in front of him, her face hidden by the same mask Dream wore, the same mask Prime was trapped in. Her hands were stuffed into the pocket of her hoodie, a black smiley face stitched across the front.
"Drista," he greeted softly.

Summary
The train station lapsed into silence. Wilbur dragged in a breath he didn't need and felt it scrape at his lungs like rusty, dull blades, swallowing pins and needles as his whole body shuddered.
"I want to kill him," he whispered. "I want to kill him, I want to kill him, I want to fucking kill him."
"I know," Puffy replied simply.

Summary
Not for the first time, he considered getting on, wondering where it may take him. And not for the first time, he dismissed the idea. As reckless as he was, he wasn't ready to leave this place just yet. The odds of the train taking him back to the Overworld were slim, and what would even happen to him if it did?
The doors hissed open, and-
His own face stared back at him.
Wilbur forgot, for a moment, how to think.

"You don't have to worry about that. You don't have to worry about anything, my son. What happens will happen. The only thing to do is live." He pressed a kiss to the top of his head. "And you've got all the time in the world to do just that."
Dream smiled at that. "Dad?"
"Yes, my love?"
Their son's head rested against their shoulder, hands curling into his suit. "I love you."

Summary
A gentle, clawed hand rested lightly against his cheek, tilting his head up slightly so that he could look Ranboo in the eyes. "You deserve the whole world, Tommy. That's just a fact."
Tommy could have melted then and there, heart warmed and bursting with nothing but love for his friend. He pressed his face into Ranboo's hand, reaching up to curl his fingers around the hybrid's wrist lightly, and offered the other a warm, soft smile. "You deserve the universe then."

"Here we are," Ranboo murmured, and Tommy almost tugged his hands down; Ranboo chuckled, and bent down to press his cheek against Tommy's, nuzzling his head against the blond's lightly and carefully securing both their hands back over his eyes. "Mm-mm, not just yet."
Tommy tried to fight back a huff and failed, unable to contain his excitement. "C'mon, Ranboo…"

GeorgeNotFound whispers to you: oh I just got bored and I can't sleep so I was making nukes. Gonna take a few out to the nether in a bit to test how efficient they are for mining netherite.
Oh.
Well.
Tommy stared at the screen, unsure how to respond, but he didn't get the chance. Another message popped up, and this one made him sit up a little straighter, his eyes widening slightly.
GeorgeNotFound whispers to you: wanna come?
