hey ranboo, don't you just wanna go apeshit?

Summary:

RACOON : are you tired of being nice?
NUKE : don't you just wanna go apeshit?
Boo : u know what ? let’s go
NUKE : what
RACOON : what
Boo : :)

As an ex-delinquent adopted into a peaceful life, Ranboo wasn’t having a great time meddling with rich kids and wannabe heroes. Faking a quiet and shy attitude for his dad scheme, Ranboo was meant to explode one day or another right?

Why not be a vigilante with his new friends, who said a quirkless boy can’t have fun ?

Notes:

i don't know i just wrote 6 pages of background for this Ranboo why not do a semi chat fic out of it for fun
edit almost a year after : ok I lied it's not a semi-chat fic

Chapter 1: hangin' out where I don't belong is nothing new to me

Summary:

Those fuckers are vigilantes.

Chapter Text

 

Ranboo is bored and he’s definitely going to make it everyone's problem.

You would think having unlimited access to internet gives you enough entertainment but that’s a lie, even more when it’s a known fact that your dad is a tech maniac. Ranboo can already hear his father nagging him about his poor habit of staying up late on his phone. He’s a teen, what did Sam expected? 

Going out was also a bad idea, because Ranboo’s idea of fun doesn’t really align with common sense. For fun he would steal a car and mess with the cops, or dine and dash with his brother.

Obviously, he can’t anymore. Not since he got adopted by a hero, none other than The Warden and enrolled in a private school. 

The worst? He had to fake his entire personality. After everything his dad did for him, Ranboo had to be clean it’s the least he can do. But holy fuck, wearing a stupid smile 24/7 is hard, let alone retrain himself from swearing. 

Life at Manberg is boring, but at least he befriended two chaotic guys, making his days less monotonous.

 


 

POG CHAT, 02/05, 6PM

 

RACOON : LMAOOOOO DID U SEE HER FACE 

RACOON : I WISH I TOOK A PIC OR SMTH

NUKE : RANBOO TELL ME U FILMED

Boo : dw i have everything.

RACOON : if u don’t remove this . i will climb ur building and do it myself

Boo : bet.

NUKE : SLEEPOVER POG ? 

Boo : wait

Boo : no

Boo : don’t tell me you are flying over there.

NUKE : too late big man open the window


 

Ranboo couldn’t refuse a sleepover, not when they were already on his balcony, Tubbo shifting back into a human. Tommy waved at him, ready to scream a greeting before Tubbo stopped him. Dumbass, it’s 8PM and a school night. Ranboo might look annoyed by them, rolling his eyes at their antic but truly he wished he could be free like his friends.

The word chaotic is too soft for them. Tommy and Tubbo Craft, sons of the top 1 hero Angel and more importantly, the worst prankster on youtube. Those two are demons and Ranboo happily watches their shenanigans from behind. 

He might be jealous. Just a bit.

 




POG CHAT, 02/09, 1AM

 

Boo : so

Boo : can someone explain why i found tommy bleeding in an alley 

Boo : with a dumb costume ?

RACOON : ITS NOT DUMB ITS VERY POG

RACOON : I MADE IT MYSELF!!!

Boo : doesn’t answer my question

Boo : are u a hero now or what

NUKE : i think we can trust him tommy

NUKE: i mean look at him

Boo : .

RACOON : true

RACOON : well

RACOON : are u ready for the grand reveal ? 

NUKE : *drums noise*

RACOON : ME AND TUBS ARE VIGILANTE!!

 


Those fuckers are vigilantes.

Honestly, Ranboo saw that coming. It explains the injuries and their absence in class, and again Ranboo felt envious. They surely have Philza’s backup and won't face big consequences if something happens. How many teens try out the vigilante’s gig until they leave high school? Too many.

If Ranboo dared to cross the line, he would have Sam on his back for the rest of his life and be the disgrace of his family. Sam is a top hero, his brother Techno is a hero, and a vigilante wouldn’t look good.

If he knew his life was going to be like that, he would have refused to be adopted. He likes Sam and all, but damn Ranboo feels used for publicity.

And his dad clearly has a favourite now.

Anyway, it’s not time for a breakdown.

He needs to clear his head.

 


POG CHAT, 02/09, 2AM :

 

Boo : hey tommy

Boo : so u can fly right ?

Boo : prove it and come pick me up 

RACOON : U GONNA SEE WHO IS THE BIGGEST MAN HERE

At least Ranboo can count on his friend.
