💾 FIC REC FRIDAY 💾

Following up that last fic, we've got this crimeboys-centric retelling of Orpheus and Eurydice. The Greek mythology is blended perfectly with the characters and the story is heartwrenching, so do give it a read!

By all rights, he, god-born, muse-born, with divinity diluted in his veins, could have spent his life lounging on a dais. He could have been a king of men. He could have been a god-not-quite.

He did not do any of these things. Orpheus took to the lands of men. He shed his past like a snake sheds its skin and wandered into the forest. He took a name that he wrote for himself. He carved it with a knife into a tree.

Wilbur Soot named himself after the phoenix that emerges from the ashes, flame-bright wings covered in coaldust and dark powder.

Beneath the willow tree’s roots, he buried his knife, his lyre, and his crown in the soil. He kept walking.

(Or: Orpheus looks back. A crimeboys-centric retelling of the tale of Orpheus and Eurydice.)

💾 FIC REC FRIDAY 💾

Fourth fic rec of the day - we've got this amazing character study fic highlighting the parallels between Wilbur and Icarus

doomed to fall

Author: rosycheeked

Rating: T

Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings

Words: 1916

Chapters: 1/1

This is how to tell a story without telling a story: contours and negative space. Me, and you, and them, all of us made spectators by tragedy. We say everything we can while saying nothing, and we never once fall in the first person.

In which Wilbur is Icarus, but he also isn’t, and we dwell on the nature of storytelling while doing everything but telling a story. In which you already know the story, and it was never the point of this one to tell it again.

But to Wilbur’s surprise, Dream simply shrugged and shook his head. “Not exactly,” he admitted, and Wilbur almost believed him. “I mean—I guess I thought you could have been useful, but not… I only really wanted to use you against Tommy.”

The expression on the mask didn’t change at all, but Wilbur swore that the curved smile grew to mock him.

“He begged me not to bring you back. Did he tell you that?”

—

Or: Dream tells Wilbur that he only revived him to be used against Tommy, and Wilbur spirals. Badly.

Chapters: 1/1

Techno carries out his chores, his mind somewhat quiet (with chat, noise is always a constant) and in the back of his mind there is a whisper that he has not heard in near years. 

‘Help help help Technoblade we need-’ 

And it stops just as quickly as it came.

AU in which twinduo can share eachother's thoughts and emotions. Over time, they've learnt to put up walls and stay separate, but when the l'manburg election goes terribly wrong, Wilbur panics and calls for Techno. Technoblade answers.
