Picking up a bundle of wood you let out a soft breath, you watched as it escaped out your lips in front of you in a small cloud. Trudging through the snow you made your way back to your house, well it wasnât really your house. A few months ago you ran into Technoblade while he was searching for a new home far away from this place called Lâmanburg; he told you he was in retirement and was surprised to find another person all the way out here. As a wandering adventurer, you eventually won him over with your charm, wit, and humor.
That was a joke of course.
You both started a mutual trade agreement, on your way back from the adventures youâd always take a pit stop at his place so he could see if you had anything worth trading. It started slow, he realized you would come back very late at night, and very weary. He offered you to stay the night once, then once turned into twice and before you knew it you began to stay at his place after every late-night adventure. As you spent more time together he helped you become a better fighter, and farmer and you helped him learn social skills and how to cook food that wasnât steak.
He never told you about his time in the country of Lâmanburg or why he was in retirement in the first place but you didnât mind. Everyone has their secrets and even if both of you were considered friends at this point you never pried. Not even when youâd catch him mumbling to himself about chat, or the bloodthirsty look in his eyes after he killed an animal. You kept your mouth shut out of respect, you could tell he appreciated the gesture.
You earned yourself a friendship emerald after he introduced you to his oldest friend Philza, the man treated you like you were his family. It made you feel wanted and welcome, Techno had a little smile on his face the entire interaction as the both of you bonded. In his mind he was ecstatic his two favorite people were getting along. Techno walked Philza out of the house and returned holding an emerald out to you, you knew how valuable these emerald were to him. You were in such shock and awe you almost started crying which caused him to panic.
âIâll treasure it with my life.â You told him kissing said emerald gently, blush spread across his pale face to his pointed ears.
âIâm glad.â He rubbed the back of his neck, âChat- chat stop Iâm not simp.â You heard him whisper hiss softly but you ignored it, choosing to smile at him instead. He noticed and his blush only deepened. You took his hand, it was so small intertwined in his own, and squeezed it softly.
Eventually, the both of you grew closer than just friends which understandably scared the half pigman to death. You caught him mumbling to himself more frequently, especially when you both were out fighting monsters and gaining experience.
Things like: âIâm not a simpâ and âCalm down Iâm gonna protect herâ as well as âI canât just say that!â Were very frequent mumblings of his, your brow furrowed and after fighting a baby zombie you turned towards him,
âHey Technoblade you doing okay?â
âYes!â He sputtered out reassuring you that he was just fine by saving you from a Skeleton.
You two watched the sunset that same day from on top of a snowy mountain and he confessed to you. The confession was a bit rough around the edges but then again so was he, so to you, it was perfect. You took his hands to get him to stop rambling and kissed his knuckles. He made an embarrassed sound and looked away from you, you cooed teasingly at him and accepted. From then on you both were attached at the hip, well as attached as heâd let you be there was still that level of awkwardness that came with any new relationships but it was wonderful. Youâd both spent hours by the fireside as he read to you, youâd help him care for Carl and get enchanted books all the while you were in awe of this magnificent and mysterious man before you.
Shaking your head smiling to yourself you trudged back to his house, the emerald around your neck bounced in tandem with your steps. Technoblade never liked leaving you alone, you reminded him constantly that you had a life before he was in it but he still seemed to be on edge. You figured it had something to do with his past so you did your best to reassure him that youâd be safe when he was away; Techo seemed to appreciate your efforts at least. Whenever he got back from what you assumed was visiting Phil (after all, Carl was gone), you were going to run him a bath and braid his hair the way he liked. Maybe youâd make him a nice dinner then youâd both fall asleep together while reading. Itâd earn you some soft kisses and snuggles later, you giggled to yourself as you put away the wood. If you told anyone else this giant of a man, who youâve seen wipe out hordes of monsters like it was nothing, loves to be cuddled at night theyâd call you insane.
You wandered down into the basement to feed his cow but the sound of a blocks-breaking startled you out of your daydream. You whipped around pulling out your sword in the way Technoblade showed you and came face to face with a blonde child peeking out from the floorboards.
âWhat the FUCK?!â You both shrieked at one another, he moved to try and scramble back down the hole. You followed him down his ladder, you werenât going to let this child get away with living under your boyfriendsâ house so easily. You backed him into a corner and took note of his beat-up appearance and his attempts to look brave as he held up his hands. Sweat gathered on his brow but you didnât let your guard down, before you could open your mouth to question him he began to talk so fast and loud you could barely keep up.
âOI, OI, OI, OI! LADY, LADY, LADY, CALM DOWNNNN CALM DOWN! SEE, SEE WEâRE BOTH IN TROUBLE CAUSE WEâRE BOTH STEALING- BORROWING FROM THE BLADE! THE BLADE KNOWS ME! I AM HIS LITTLE BROTHER, TOMMY, I AM SURE YOUâVE HEARD OF ME! THEREFOR IâM NOT DOING ANYTHING WRONG. YOU-YOU, ON THE OTHER HAND, ARE A STRANGER! YOU KNOW HEâS A BLOOD GOD RIGHT? HEâLL ABSOLUTELY KILL YOU, BUT BUT! IF WE KEEP THIS BETWEEN US I WONâT HAVE TO TELL HIM ANYTHING AT ALL FAIR? SEEMS FAIR TO ME-â
You reached your hand out to cover his mouth, your eyes narrowed into slits, âStart again. Softer and slower. Techno never told me he had a brother.â You watched the eyes of the blonde widen in surprise, assumingly at the notion that you already knew Technoblade. Slowly you removed your hand from his mouth but didnât lower your guard. He cleared his throat, swallowing tentatively.
âIâm Tommy. Weâre not related by blood- who ARE you?â he pressed still completely baffled at the appearance of a GIRL who knew Technoblade. Before you could even respond to him he let out another baffled cry. âDOES HE SIMP FOR YOU!?â He shrieked pointing at you as he waved his finger around. âTHEREâS NO WAY- HE DOES HOLY SHIT!â Tommy laughed as you blinked rapidly, how was he able to read all that without you even saying anything? You were trying to process who this kid was while also being stuck on the blood god thing. You felt Tommyâs arm around your shoulders suddenly as he pulled you close. âWell, Miss Blade now that we know who you are maybe we can strike a deal-â
âHEY! Come on now.â Tommy whined loudly, âI need your help here! Look Iâm sure you know why heâs in hiding and all...and well...I mightâve pissed the same people off and-â
âActually no. I didnât know thatâŠâ You spoke softly deflating a little, âHeâs in hiding? From who exactly.â
A look of shock came across Tommyâs face, âYou mean...you donât know? Like about Lâmanburg and his betrayal.â
âDoes it sound like I know? Look Tommy you seem like a nice kid really, but you need to leave-â
âNonononnonononono. Look itâs fine, Iâve been living here for weeks now-â
âWEEKS?â You snarled a pink flush coming to your cheeks, you grabbed the boyâs arm and began to drag him up the ladders in Technoâs house. Hee was going to kill you like actually this time. You were about to throw open the door but it swung open in front of you. Techno was standing there completely bruised and bloody and you immediately dropped Tommy in favor of him.
âOh my god Techno what happened?â You breathed out a worried breath he was about to respond before he noticed Tommy. He grabbed you by the arm and pushed you behind him guarding you with his body.
âTommy.â He snarled as the boy once again shrieked and booked it back down the ladder Techno turned towards you, âStay here.â Technoblade commanded you softly the look in his eyes could only be described as desperate. âDonât leave. Please.â
âI wonâtâŠâ You murmured watching him disappear after the British boy, you hoped he was going to explain everything to you after he dealt with the raccoon. You could hear them shouting from down below you, you couldnât push it off any longer you needed to get answers from him.
Part II maybe? Lmk if thereâs an interest! Cause I love this man with my whole heart! Thanks so much for reading đ„șâš
