Title: Take a Break (Let's Go Upstate)
Fandom: SMP Earth
Relationships: Technoblade and Phil Watson | Philza
Summary:
“Mate, what are you doing?”
Technoblade, fourth son of the Piglin Clan Blade, Emperor of the Antarctic Empire, the infamous Blood God, glances up from the pile of paperwork on his desk to make eye contact with Philza Minecraft, one of the last crow-type Elytrians, Emperor of the Antarctic Empire, the Angel of Death.

“Uh…” he starts, eloquently, before closing his mouth and trying again. “Working?”
