Phil makes his little friend an ugly, yellow cardboard crown because he was just made fun of and he wanted to do something nice.
 Centuries later and Phil is crowning his large husband the emperor of their newly formed empire, and he loves nothing more then to stand by his side and help out all he can. 
Oh no that's so sweet ; ;
But what if Techno kept the cardboard crown because it meant that much to him. After Techno is crowned king, once they have a moment alone, Techno presents the cardboard crown to Phil and returns it to him.
"I very well can't rule alone, now can I?" Techno asks, carefully placing it on Phil's head.
"No, I think not," Phil answers in return with a smile before kissing Techno.

I literally died when I heard Phil said they were platonic patroclus and achillrs
Like out of every brother in arms / soldiers you could have chosen they took them 😭 I'm sure its techno who brought this idea to phil at, but that sure aint helping the /p of them lmaoo
Techno absolutely described it as P&A /p to Phil to excuse the blatant homosexual undertones. Little did he know Phil would believe him so much

Chapters: 1/1
Summary:
The Coliseum is filled with the thick heat of too many bodies. A thin mist of blood, sweat and violence clings to its walls and the people inside.
Techno can hear the crowd cajoling above him. They call for blood, they call for death, they call for him. He strains against the chains that hold him in place. They creak against his muscles, and for a moment it looks like they might actually break. Then the sharp whistle of a whip cuts through the air and right into his back.
Techno grunts and rears upwards, choking himself on the iron collar that keeps him in place. Warm blood spills from the fresh cut and slowly drips downward, mingling with what's already been spilled on the floor.
The man with the whip is yelling something at Techno, and the piglin is made to kneel. He can't quite make out what's being said though.
The voices in his head have eclipsed even the roaring of the crowd above them.
It's only when a cool hand touches his face and tilts it upwards that Techno notices the new person that's entered the room. He looks up and everything goes quiet
Personal Notes:
Slight trigger warnings for brainwashing, objectification, and memory loss (ofc not done by philza). I LOVE this fic! It hits right in the feels! The writing is so good! This is another one of those writers who’s every work is spectacular! If you like this fic i definitely recommend looking at some of their others because they’re all AMAZING.

Chapters: 1/1
Summary:
In the weeks and months since Phil had arrived in what would become New L'Manburg, he hasn't had the opportunity to grieve for Wilbur. He's built and mined and helped others and generally done his best to keep going in spite of the ache in his heart and the weight of grief on his shoulders.
It all comes crashing down on him when staying with Technoblade one night.
(Phil finally grieves for Wilbur and Techno is there to help him weather the storm like always.)
Personal Notes:
How can one fic be filled with so much love and so much angst at the same time? The world may never know. This fic does so much justice to phil’s character and their relationship. The author balances phil’s grief and techza’s budding relationship without making either feel tacky. Definitely one of my all time fave’s

Chapters: 1/1
Summary:
"Thanks, Techno," Phil said, soft enough he nearly missed it.
"Yup. Anytime..." And he locked everything else he wanted to say-- everything that pushed at the back of his teeth, that tapped incessantly against his tongue-- up behind the idea that Phil could never look at him and see anything more than what he was.
Personal Notes:
7k of Techno being gay for Phil and not knowing how to deal with feelings. What more could you possibly want?

Summary:
Phil kills the ender dragon. Life moves on. He allies himself with Technoblade, creates the Antarctic Empire. They leave. Life moves on. Phil becomes the ender dragon.
It becomes significantly more complicated.
Personal Notes:
What it says on the tin. Honestly I can't tell if this fic is supposed to be crack treated seriously or if phil is canonical this willfully ignorant. Either way its hilarious.
The Bird and The Boar by Neversleep_inc
Word Count: 54,201
Chapters: 22/22
Summary:
-In all fairness, the villager was holding his own in the verbal battle, despite the fact that Techno was definitely intimidating. Towering at a ridiculous height, Techno had to duck to get into normal doorways, and with a boar skull mask secured to his face, he would be downright terrifying if Phil hadn’t watched him fall down the front stairs this morning. As the two argued, the winged man let his eyes wander over his companion, soaking in his friend’s appearance. -
Personal Notes:
I haven’t actually finished this fic. I started it before finals and then i dropped off the face of the planet for a month and suddenly theres 50k words added. This is one of the more well known fics in this fandom. And, from what i read, for good reason!

Chapters: 7/?
Summary:
The Angel of Death and The Blood God are real beings, or they were once. Now they're just a myth right? Angels and gods aren't real, and the two people who currently hold the nicknames of the once mighty beings don't seem to be divine... or are they? Philza wanders onto a server whilst traveling and stumbles upon Technoblade fighting in an arena, his interest is peaked to say the least. Technoblade is wary of the new stranger in his life but he seems nice, at least he didn't immediately demand a fight, maybe this one will be different.
An AU where Technoblade is an acutal god and Philza is an actual angel. They are NOT related in this story.
Personal Notes:
7 chapters in and the fic is really starting to pick up! I’m excited to see where this goes! Please show this fic some love! If just so that the author has the motivation to finish because dear god i need it!!
people who are terminally online treat being lgbt like a fucking fandom... they say stereotypes are bad but perpetuate "woke" ones. and don't get me started on cishet girls voting "i'm lgbt" in polls just to fit in (because yes, this is a real issue, teens want to conform).
do you know how out of place i feel in online lgbt spaces, especially because of how american-oriented it is? i can't relate to your stereotypes or "gay experiences", and neither will i put up with people treating me differently because i'm not het.
now think about how lgbt ccs are treated (eret, minx, and niki, to name a few) by their fanbases (boiled down to their sexuality/gender, being paraded around as an lgbt icon and being expected to always be educated or willing to hold exhaustingly nuanced conversations anytime, anywhere). no wonder ccs don't feel safe coming out. twitter is a fucking disease
but also something that really rubs me the wrong way is how twitter tends to seperate the queer community into subgroups?? like ofc there are certain experiences only lesbians f.e. have and they need to have a safe space to talk about it but twitter really exaggerate the seperation
the queer community is, always has been and always be for everyone who does not fit in the allocishet normality of society and we fight for equality and justice together. we are one community
and if the people on twitter would get in contact with irl queer networks and spaces they woud understand that ( i know its not possible everwhere and your own safety is always more important than anything else but if you have the chance).
if they only get to know “real” queer places they would understand that so much things they try to “cancel” and stuff is just so irrelevant...
an example which i always remember is when i talk to a gay man (who was around 25) and we were talking about pride flags and when we came to the mlm flag he literally said “well it’s cool, but i think it’s way cooler to have the rainbow flag as flag for everyone”
also please stop throwing around the word “fetishing” like it doesnt mean anything
sorry if this doesnt make much sense, many words in my head and little of them are in english
Sometimes when Quackity gets excited he quacks. Most people make fun of him for it so he does his best to keep it a secret. One day he accidentally quacks in front of Charlie because he forgot to keep his guard up and braces to get teased for it but instead Charlie just quacks back and it’s so fucking dumb but it makes Quackity’s entire week and he can’t stop smiling for the rest of the day
It's a common question Techno has gotten used to over the years when people spot the intricate golden metal armlet on his upper arm (clearly too delicate and beautiful for a monster like him), which he'll explain that in his husband's culture, it signifies that Techno is married and taken.
To which after people find out that Techno is married and who he's married to, they'll usually follow up with another question.
"Why?"
And what was Techno supposed to say to a question like that?
"Because I love him," is what he'd tell people at first, confused as to why they would ask such a thing.
But no one ever seemed satisfied with that answer, questioning further if he and Phil simply got married for benefits or because it was convenient or if it was just one big joke between them, and if Phil was really in a relationship with someone else because why would he be married to Techno of all people?
So Techno stopped telling people and started wearing longer sleeved shirts, hiding the golden armlet (refusing to take it off because it was too precious to him, even if it caused unwanted questions). If asked about it, he'd say it was a gift and leave it at that.
When the Butcher Army comes for him and forces him to give them everything he has, including his armor, they try to take the armlet as well (previously hidden but now visible due to his shirt being torn during his fight with them).
"No," Techno growls, "You can take everything else, but you're not taking this away from me!"
"Just give it up, Techno! What does it matter?" Quackity shouts.
Techno wants to yell back, say that it does matter, that it's everything to him and represents the love he has for Phil.
But he can't say any of those things, in fear that they'd hurt the person he loves and try to use Phil against him.
"Wait!" Fundy exclaims, "Phil wears a piece of jewelry exactly like that! It means he's married to someone!"
Techno's eyes widen and he expects the worst, for them to connect the dots, and figure out that it isn't just a coincidence that he and Phil both wear the same piece of jewelry. That they loved each other so deeply, had married each other years ago and bonded for life because they couldn't imagine being without the other.
But he really shouldn't have expected anything different by now.
"Married? Why would anyone marry Technoblade?! It's probably just some loot he stole from someone else," Quackity dismisses quickly, "Take it from him!"
Techno has nothing else to say, no argument or witty remark, and takes the armlet off, handing it to Ranboo (who at least seems to handle it gently, putting it away with care).
He knows he should be glad that they didn't figure it out, relieved that Phil is safe for now and their true relationship is still hidden. That it can't be used against either of them.
So why does he feel so heartbroken?
In the end, he escapes from his failed execution and eventually is given the armlet back, courtesy of Ranboo when he returns Techno's armor.
"I tried to take care of it and keep it safe. It seemed important," Ranboo says, handing it back.
"It is," Techno simply says and puts the armlet back into place on his upper arm, the familiar weight of it comforting him.
Phil finally escapes from house arrest soon after, running into Techno's waiting arms, finally back where he belongs - finally back home.
Yet despite all that, Techno still feels...out of sorts.
"Phil, do you love me?" he asks later that night, while they're sitting together on the couch, Phil in his lap and leaning his back against Techno's chest, resting quietly after an intense day.
"That's a silly question, of course I do," Phil replies back with a small smile.
"Do you...do you know that I love you?"
Phil's eyes snap open at the question, and turns around in his husband's lap, to see Techno silently crying, tears running down his face.
"Of course I know you love me," Phil reassures him, placing his hands on either side of Techno's face and carefully wiping his tears away. "You're the only person in my life who has ever truly loved me for who I am."
"If that's true, then why...why does everyone think I'm incapable of love? Am I really that horrible that they can't believe that I could love someone? Love you? Or that...you don't love me? I just...I don't understand, Phil," Techno admits in a quiet voice, more tears escaping from his eyes.
"Oh, Tech," Phil looks at him with concern, "What happened?"
So Techno tells him about all the times over the years he's been asked about the armlet, how they'd question if his marriage to Phil was genuine or real, insisting that surely they didn't get married because they loved each other. He tells Phil about the incident with the Butcher Army and how they took everything, including the armlet. How they had dismissed the possibility of Techno being married so easily.
Phil listens throughout it all, holding Techno close and letting him cry, allowing him to finally release all the things he'd been keeping to himself for years.
By the end of Techno's explanation, Phil is furious. Not at Techno, no, never. But at the people who had made Techno question his feelings and the love he felt, who had hurt him and tried to kill him.
"Techno, listen to me," Phil says, "I love you and I know you love me. We're married, we're bonded and no matter what anyone else thinks or says, nothing is going to change that. People see us, two men in a relationship, two completely different species, and will assume the worst. But it doesn't matter what they think. It's not their relationship, it's ours. Only our feelings matter. I love you so much and I consider myself lucky to be married to someone as amazing as you."
"I love you, too, more than anything," Techno says, and while the damage of other people's words haven't been completely undone, he felt much lighter than he had before now that Phil knew.
"We'll make them pay, I promise," Phil swears before placing a gentle kiss on Techno forehead.
He follows through with his promise on Doomsday as he aids Techno and Dream in the destruction of Lmanberg.
Later, while tnt rains from the sky and Withers fly around causing chaos, as they stand on top of the obsidian grid and are in full view of everyone, Phil pulls Techno down into a deep kiss. Showing everyone, just exactly what the nature of their relationship is and making sure no one ever questions it again.
