I am retiring this account. After the news, I don’t feel comfortable recommending fics anymore. I don’t mind people who still want to read SBI related content, and this account will remain open and accessible as a testament to that, but personally I am retiring this account out of respect.

I will announce that I also ran another SBI related blog, @sbi-au-ideas, and I will also be retiring that one. Goodbye, nerds.

Heyo-

I figured I would shoot my shot lol. It’s my fic boy division on ao3 by dragonofopal, and the link is below. Thanks for checking it out :)

boy division

Gunfire continued overhead- a man two people down fell back, blood gushing from his shoulder. Another man was on him in an instant, staunching the bleeding with dirty hands. Wilbur blinked again.

Niki let go of him, and his head lolled to the side.

As Niki and Jack yelled back and forth to each other, Wilbur tipped his head to the sky.

Through the smoke and dirt, he could vaguely see white clouds drift northward.

They were moving pretty fast.

OR

Wilbur is drafted into a losing war between empires. Tommy is determined to never join it in the first place.

Opinion: WOW. Holy shit, was that a ride. The writing and descriptions are phenomenal, the way Dream’s villain character is spun is so interesting and I love how all the characters can see it too. Watching Tommy and Wilbur’s relationship come together is both heart warming and heart wrenching, but I love how their weaknesses aren’t hidden away and are instead used to strengthen their bond. It doesn’t shy away from the politics or losses of war, and it’s fascinating to see unravel. This fic is very intense, from the beginning all the way to the end, but it’s a wonderful ride to go on and I HIGHLY recommend this fic. However, there are a lot of tw’s, so make sure to stay safe.

You Got Blood In My Coffee

Tommyinnit makes the best coffee in the city…

At least that is what he always claims. The owner of a small coffee shop began to see hard times as rising tension between the mob and the law leaves him with a battlefield right outside his front door. In the heat of this conflict, every other paying customer had disappeared, likely visiting a safer part of the city for a far inferior cup of coffee. Somehow six customers begin to support his entire business, three are the wealthiest men in the city and three are the officers charged with taking them down.

Opinion: Awesome story! It does a great job at casual tension and building up the story in a gradual, sensible way, and is one of the better stories at keeping you up to date with how Tommy feels when it comes to the situations he finds himself in

Change fate by being aggressively kind

“You do understand that you’re caring for the thing meant to bring destruction and chaos to our world, right?” The woman asks, Phil looking behind him fondly as Techno grabs at the ends of his wings.

“He’s just a child.” Phil answers distractedly, humming as his wings get gently yanked at.

“He’s the first of three to destroy life as we know it! Shouldn’t we, well, get rid of him?!”

“Oh, no.” Phil raises his eyes with a sharp glare. “Believe me, I have my own way of preventing the apocalypse.”

---

Or, Techno, Wilbur, and Tommy are basically chaotic forces of nature, destined from birth to end the world and bring destruction. Most who hear of the tale of them are trying their best to track them down, and to end the monsters while they’re still young, still just children.

Phil has a different plan.

(In which Phil raises the minecraft equivalents of the anti-christ with love and support, so much so to the point where the world ending is really just a funny thought, and Phil has three kids who casually have powers that are bit more extreme than anything else in the world)

From Here To Neptune

Hesitantly, he presses a trembling hand to the glass.

The entire universe is spread out underneath his finger tips, hundreds upon hundreds of stars swirling in constellations he doesn't know, a melting pot of dazzling colors, vivid pinks and deep blues, swatches of yellow and green.

If he squints, he can make out planets. Tiny little dots, hardly bigger than the nail on his pinky finger. That little grey one must be Lestea, the trade moon they just left, but the others? he has no idea.

One of them must be earth. How ironic is that he's the first human to ever leave the Milky Way Galaxy, and all he wants to do is go back home?

(In other words; After rescuing Tommy, Techno, Wilbur, and Phil take him on a roadtrip through the Esempi Galaxy to return him to his home planet, Earth. They make a few pit stops, piss off some shopkeepers, make some more friends, and learn how to be family along the way)

I was a kid in the village, doing alright, then I became a prince overnight

(Yes the title is from sofia the first, yes I'm laughing at it, I find it funny-)

In which Phil has created the Antarctic Empire from the ground up and takes in Techno and Wilbur along the way, and raises them while also ruling his kingdom. Tommy, sixteen, lives with Tubbo in an orphanage, the two of them running around in the cold streets of their town.

After a hectic day of getting separated from Tubbo, getting into a few fights, and ending up in an entirely new town, he comes across Phil, and saves him from an assassination attempt by smashing a plate over someone's head.

So then both Techno and Wilbur decide to see who this kid is, and Tommy sure is endearing, in the way that the first time they spy on him, he starts a fight in an alleyway over a bag of cookies.

(and then Tommy basically gets kidnapped into the royal family, but like, legally, y’know?)

Opinion: my comfort fic, absolutely no angst, just Tommy, chaos, and adoption. BIG recommend, this fic has made me laugh more times than I could feasibly count, and the chaos is absolutely CHAOTIC, and the adoption is hilariously fond. I love this fic so much, huge recommend, deffo read this one!

How To Smile With Bloody Teeth

“Please,” one soldier told Techno over dinner, “The Blood God isn’t going to help you. He doesn’t accept any of the blood sacrifices the generals leave for him, so either he doesn’t exist, or he thinks he’s too good for the likes of us. Either way, it’s best to find a different patron.”

Techno had punched him in the face for that. None of his other comrades ever brought up the Blood God again.

Well, except for one.

“You follow the Blood God?” the new kid said, staring up at Techno with unbelievably blue eyes.

“Yeah,” Techno replied, perhaps a bit gruffer than he meant to, “What’s it to you?”

“Nothing!” the new kid said, grinning wildly, “I love that guy. He gets all the ladies. Hey, we should be friends!”

Or: Techno is the last devout follower of the Blood God. Tommy may or may not be said god.

There’s Blood in your Web, Theseus (wipe it out)

Spiders are both overlooked and feared. They spin their webs, catch their kills and move on. Some hunt, finding their prey and stalking until the kill.

Tommy’s not a Huntsman Spider anymore, though. He made sure of that when the skies bled black with smoke and the horizon was stained with orange and red.

From a class of twenty-eight to a class of one.

•••

Or, Tommy has escaped the Red Room, only to stumble into the lives of a family of Villains, who want him to join their ranks, a corrupt businessman and his makeshift family and a bunch of Heroes, who swear they want to help him.

Opinion: I couldn’t describe the joyride this is. The action scenes are descriptive and frequent, we get a little bit of vigilante action, and Tommy isn’t completely oblivious! Definitely a BAMF type fic. This fic is a great storyteller and I highly recommend you read it if ur good with the tw’s in there. Definitely a major angst fic tho

Thunder in My Bones

Tommy Innit, known mostly as Red Thunder, the golden and beloved sidekick of Dream, has been doing his best to be the best he could ever be.

He'd been training under Dream's wing, and honestly couldn't have asked for anything better! Except-

•••

He's suddenly asked by the Sleepy Bois Inc (one of the best hero groups in the country, his idols) to join them on one of their missions, and he's almost screaming in joy. Almost.

•••

But why do they keep insisting that Dream has been treating him wrong when the man had just wanted to make him better?

Opinion: I’m personally attached to this fic, having been present since the very first chapter got published, so I’m a little biased. However, I still think this is an amazing fic with impressive world building so far and keeping everything consistent and streamlined! Big recommend from me, but you’ll have to read it yourself to understand.

Stream Labs LIVE

"Dude, you've never heard of Stream Labs?"

It was supposed to be a simple question asked by a couple of friends of his, the Dream Team actually.

And from there, well, things escalated beyond his imaginations.

———

Wilbur was a normal musician and streamer, until his friends pull him into a small but growing fandom of a sort of ARG RP streamer under the team name of Stream Labs. A fantastic mystery and story involving science, magic and more. It grows as the actor behind teen genius scientist Dr. Tubbo, carefully and meticulously unveils it with splendid ease. The thought and effort in the story was amazing and captivating, Wilbur was easily pulled in.

But as the streams go by, Wilbur and everyone else slowly start to realize that there's more to these streams then meets the eye.

———

Tommy just wanted to live peacefully with his best friend after waking up, maybe with the weird prince and the new friends he made online. He never fucking expected everything else- why the fuck were he and Tubbo famous in another world? The fuck was 'Clingy Duo' anyway?

———

The walls of reality are crumbling down around them but they're too busy with each other to notice.

Word Count: 91,607

Opinion: WOW. Just wow. This fic weaves a story like thread on a spindle, and damn, call me a sweater. This story feels closer to a 4D view of their world, with the perspective switching and descriptors. The use of IRL mechanics and fantasy mechanics in two separate worlds? I couldn’t describe how amazing this story is if I wanted to, all I can say is read it and find out. The beginning can feel a little slow, but it gets a lot better as time goes on. It’s focused on Everyone, but it all ties into Tommy in some way or another. It’s not entirely SBI centered, with the two worlds separating all the mcyt members, and is probably a little closer to crime boys when you get further into the story, but the two worlds haven’t collided yet so it’s impossible to know! All I can say is that this story is a TREAT, and you should definitely read it.

TommyInnit's Services for Villains, Vigilantes, and Various Other Vagabonds

Everybody knew about the tiny apartment on the East End of L'manberg, hiding in a far corner of the lower districts.

A place everyone was welcome, regardless of their given title.

Where villains could come for medical treatment.

Where mafia goons and bosses could rest without the need to look over their shoulders.

Where vigilantes and heroes could have a nice chat over tea.

Where treatment (and treats) were given out freely.

Where societal tags (and their due expectations) were shot and murdered at the front door.

And if you ignored this rule, you too were shot and murdered at the front door.

By whom was a gamble.

Everybody knew about the tiny apartment on the East End of L'manberg.

Everybody also knew that if you touched any of the occupants, well...

You'd have the entirety of super-powered society (underground and otherwise) gunning for your head.

Seriously, he just wanted to bake cookies, what just happened?

unlikely events

Something is brewing. A great storm that could shatter life as its known. More and more often, androids are breaking free of their original programming. More and more often, androids are turning against their owners in increasingly violent ways.

And the only ones that can stop it are Wilbur Soot—the youngest lieutenant in police history and now a drunk, washed out detective—and an android of the 1NN1T model named Tommy, an advanced prototype created to solve crimes and catch rogue androids. But first they actually have to get along.

Or,

Two idiots, a robot and a depressed detective, walk into a bar. One comes out experiencing emotions he shouldn't be able to, and the other comes out with a reason to live.

Opinion: IM BACK and I’ve got one hell of a fic for y’all. This one is a RIDE, it’s got beautiful relationship transitions; beautiful 3D lens of the world happening around them, with the focus of the story revolving around Wilbur and Tommy, as they are discovering new things about deviants and themselves. The writing just consumes you, and I’m gonna admit that I stayed up til 4 am to finish reading all of it. Beautiful. It stays on track of the plot for Detroit: Become Human for a time, before diverging and twisting the story into something original and unpredictable. *chefs kiss* I love it. Big recommend from me.

A Whisper, A Blade, A Feather & A Fiend

Tommy doesn't remember much from his childhood other than he somehow ended up working for Puffy who offered him a place to stay. He met Tubbo sometime after and moved in with the hybrid, working during the day and kicking ass at night, even if some of the gadgets given to him were on the more questionable side of 'I know this is already illegal but this feels illegal'.

So of course a sleep-deprived man enters the cafe on a day Tommy happens to be at the counter.

or

“You good man?” Tommy questioned, not sure if the man in front of him was also on something else or just extremely exhausted.

“Yeah, sorry, just had a long night,” the man in question replied, whose eyes were brown and mixed with hints of swirling misty white, “can I get a latte with five shots of caffeine please?”

“What the fuck man, just do cocaine,” Tommy muttered in surprise, which the man managed to catch, a small smile forming on his face as he exhaled.

In a world of heroes and villains, safety and prosperity, superpowers galore, Tommyinnit's main "power" is getting into obscenely unlucky situations. He's used to it by now, been going through it for 17 long years of life, but when one day he finds himself practically bleeding to death in an alley, he comes face to face with the previously unreachable reality that other people just might want to actually associate with him.

It's just his luck that those "people" also happen to be some of the city's most powerful superheroes and supervillains, and it's just his luck that they happen to make his life so much better for the worse.
