SUMMARY: sometimes even tommy falls victim to illness.

“DO YOU FEEL as bad as you look?”

His head hurts, his throat aches, and the rest of his body is overwhelmed with the exhaustion that sweeps through his bones, numbing him to the cold that lingers in the air. Tommy doesn’t want to think about how he’s probably coming down with whatever it is he’s been fighting off for the past week, nor does he allow himself to dwell on the fact that he’s barely had three hours of sleep in the last couple of days.

𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 ━━ 𝐭. 𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐛𝐲

SUMMARY: tommy talks the reader down.

“I WANTED TO shoot him.”

The confession falls into the gaps of silence that space the conversation out, a fumble of words that prompts Tommy to advance towards you, his eyes never once leaving yours. It’s a secret shared in the midst of the darkness that’s beginning to fall over the city; a vague truth in return for the protection of the Peaky Blinders. He has a weariness about him, and the way he regards you seems to unsettle the fraught tension in the air.
