im literally in love with that one hc, that tommy’s actual name is theseus, but he couldn’t pronounce it so he just goes by tommy
making it even better, what if he doesn’t even know that’s his name
like, what if everytime techno calls him theseus phil and wilbur knows that it’s his name, but tommy is just like, “whos that”
ALSO ALSO techno suggested the name because he likes greek mythology!
small techno: can we name him theseus?
phil: why not? who is that anyway?
small techno: hes a hero in greek mythology.
phil: thats nice. i like that. theseus.
small wilbur: DAD! DAD! get in here!! theseus is about to say something!!
phil, rushing in the room: what is he trying to say?
small techno: i think hes trying to say his name.
baby tommy: th… these…. tommy. tommy.
phil: *laughs* i think he likes tommy.
small wilbur: that could be his nickname!!
phil: *ruffles wilbur’s hair* yeah, that’s good. *turns to tommy* hi tommy! welcome to the family.
i literally love the family dynamic
but, we know, when their not having these cute moments, its so chaotic
also, what if everytime someone calls tommy theseus, he is like “thats not my name”, but no one has the heart to correct him?
young techno: Dad, theseus took my gapples.
young tommy: my gapples. and that’s not my name, jerk.
phil, rolling his eyes: tommy, give him his gapples
young tommy: theyre mine.
phil: we both know their not.
young tommy: well, they are now!!
phil: *sighs* techno, you can have some of my gapples. theyre in that chest over there.
young techno: lame. *pushes tommy* have fun getting scolded, theseus.
young tommy: thats not my name! just because youre all smart and stuff, doesnt mean that you get to call me your dumb greek names!
then, when tommy learns that theseus is his name, hes just so confused
techno: yeah, little theseus over there was burrowing under my house like a little racoon.
(chat: RACOONINNIT)
phil: tommy, why are you like this
tommy: why do you always call me theseus? im not even that much like him.
techno: did you literally miss my entire speech?
tommy: whenever you start talking for more than five seconds i zone out.
techno: well, if you were listenening to me, you would know why I call you theseus.
tommy: you even called me theseus when we were kids, though
ghostbur, from across the room: you still are a kid
phil: hes right
techno: i called you theseus because its your name
tommy: no it isnt
ghostbur: it is!! i was there when we named you
tommy: phil, tell them that they’re wrong
phil: theyre not wrong, though
tommy:
techno:
phil:
ghostbur:
techno: HA! LOSER DOESNT KNOW HIS NAME! LAME
ghostbur: i think its fine that you dont know your name, tommy *smiles because he is perfect and i love him as should everyon-*
tommy:
phil: tommy, did you seriously not know your name? youve lived sixteen years
tommy: *proceeds to have existensial crisis*
a few hours later tommy was still just sitting there muttering, “my name… its theseus. what kinda pussy name is that?”
WE NEED A LITTLE TUBBO IN HERE
once tommy and tubbo eventually make up, because they’re gonna become friends again, right? right?
this would take place almost right after they become friends again.
now, phil, ghostbur, and techno call tommy theseus all the time, just to be mean to him. also, this is outside of techno’s house, because that’s pretty much where tommy lives now, and i really need that sbi content.
techno: get back here!! dont take more gapples, theseus!!!!
ghostbur: techno, here take some blue for your loss.
techno: that’s great ghostbur, but I dont have infinite gold!!!
ghostbur: we do have a lot of blue, though.
phil, inventory full of all the blue ghostbur gave him: you can say that twice
tommy: no! im gonna lose my absorbtion!!
techno: YOU DONT NEED ABSORBTION
tubbo: god, what did i miss
phil: tubbo, why are you here? you put me under house arrest
tubbo, smiling awkwardly: me and tommy made up?
phil, eyebrow twitching:
ghostbur: oh, i havent talked to you in a while, tubbo! how are you! i know theseus missed you a lot.
tubbo, confused: theseus? isnt that the guy that techno went on that rant about…?
phil: yeah. he really always did like greek mythology. he actually decided theseus’ name.
tubbo: someone’s named theseus?
cut to tommy, laughing maniacally, eating gapples while techno slowly goes insane:
tubbo, looking at tommy, then at phil: tommy’s name is theseus.
phil, nods
tubbo, laughing at the irony: surely not
ghostbur: its true! he just couldnt pronounce it when he was younger, so we all called him tommy
tubbo: HEY, THESEUS! GIVE ME SOME GAPPLES
tommy: you know too now? oh, this is a bad day
techno: HA, YES TUBBO!
happy tommy happy tommy happy tommy
with his family and best friend
his name isnt actually theseus
