So... I got an idea for a Techno x reader fanfic lol
Basically the premise is:
Reader is a dragon-human hybrid who is childhood friends with Techno and fights alongside him during the Pogtopia era and the eras following that. And fun (angsty, messed up) stuff happens (that may or may not include manipulation and drugs)
Wouldn't be slow-burn cuz they already have an established friendship (maybe a bit of pining/crushing but not an 80+ chapter thing (*cough* @jeeblie)
Would anyone be interested in reading this if I did write it?
I SWEAR IT'S DIFFERENT (though there's definitely some inspo there)
Anyways I have lost the motivation to write this specific fic but I am thinking about writing a series of c!Techno x reader fluff (to help everyone heal from what @uunoia and @jeeblie and @zombeykat and every other big Techno x reader writers are putting us through (I love all of you keep doing your thing))
Basically I have three different Techno designs in my head and I'm gonna make a reference page like this for each of them and then I'm gonna have the fine people of the internet vote on which one they like most
And then I'm going to fully color that reference page! And that design will be the one I use when I'm drawing Techno fanart that's not for a specific fanfic
Speaking of fanfics @uunoia this one's for you, OWYLAM Techno looks like this in my head :)
I really like this design, I'm particularly proud of the feet and just his anatomy, I think I captured his beefiness well ๐๐
Hi bella!! I just wanted to say thank you for keeping the techno space alive. When I was younger and first into fanfic around 2020 there was plenty of dream smp or techno stuff around but now it seems like everything is wiped out :( thank you for writing such amazing stories, and thank you for fleshing out the characters so well. Do you know what happened to all these older one shots and fics from years ago? Were they taken down due to his passing?
thank you thank you thank you from the very bottom of my heart
it's a shame technoblade and a lot of old works are gone, i wasn't into this fanfic niche in 2020-22 so i wasn't there to witness it myself, but i think it's beautiful a lot of Technofanfic enjoyers have had this renissance where they are still writing, still drawing, still making really cool stuff and are always super nice and encouraging.
i feel myself experiencing burnout almost everyday, new things are taking over my life and im getting progressively more frustrated with my writing, i have all these ideas and constantly beat myself up over not being able to make them the way i want.
but to everyone else that's still here your works and art are all so beautiful and hold a very special place in my heart
thank you to the technoblade x reader niche ๐ซโค๏ธโ๐ฉน
Did you mean... oh shoot now I can't remember the word
OH COMMISSIONS
Did you mean commissions?
I don't have a means for people to pay me for stuff but I'm open to people suggesting things for me to write/draw! Whether or not I actually write/draw those things depends heavily on my current interests and my energy levels

The first time Technoblade saw you, he absently thought you were pretty. That was it. He was ready to move on with his life; there were potatoes to be harvested, gold to be melded into weapons and blood to be shed.
That was, until The Voices gasped in unison. And that was never a good sign.
TECHNO !
TECHNO LOOK AT HER !
SHEโS- SHEโS MAGNIFICENT, A GODDESS AMONGST FILTH !!!
He could already feel an headache start to bloom behind his eyes, and he sighed silently. The Voices were obnoxiously loud and his jaw hurt from grinding his teeth together. He didnโt have the time for this. The only thing keeping him rooted to the spot was the fact thatโฆ this was weird. The Voices had never acted in such a way. They clamored for blood, they made fun of him and sometimes hyped him up, but they never complimented someone else like this.
โโฆCan I help you?โ He was struck out of his thoughts by your voice awkwardly greeting him, a bit creeped out by the fact he had been staring at you for a good five minutes without blinking. Technoblade cleared his throat as The Voices screeched incoherently.
โNah, Iโm fine.โ You blinked at him, the two of you standing there in an awkward silence for a minute.
โIโllโฆ Iโll get going then.โ You nodded once and turned around, walking away as Techno stared at your back like an idiot, trying not to bash his head in to make The Voices calm down.
TALK TO HER!
WHY DIDNโT YOU INTRODUCE YOURSELF, YOU ABSOLUTE BOZO ???
THE LEAST YOU COULDโVE DONE WAS COMPLIMENT HER, DUMBASS !!!
Yep, he definitely had an headache.
โChatโฆ Iโm not going to... run after her to introduce myself like a pathetic loser. Thatโd be creepy.โ Technoblade mumbled, to which The Voices cursed loudly in his head, making him grind his teeth against the pain.
He sighed through his nose, taking a few steps towards where you had stood, just to see if you were still around, when his foot hit something in the grass. Looking down, he saw a glass phial filled with a colourful liquid. Huh. Had you dropped a potion ? Picking it up, he turned it over in his hand and thumbed at the cork, closing his eyes in annoyance as The Voices came back with a vengeance.
โFine.โ He shut them up, tired of the throb of pain coming from his brain. Techno looked down at the grass and soil and easily tracked your footsteps, following the path they led towards a nearby lake. There, you were crouching down, filling an empty glass phial with water, humming softly to yourself. The Voices loudly spoke over eachother in Technoโs brain about the wind in your hair, or the sun on your skin, or even the way you crouched.
A few steps behind you, Technoblade frowned. You were... vulnerable. You hadnโt even heard him coming up, so someone could probably very easily sneak up on you. That wouldnโt do.
โHey.โ You startled at his voice, turning around, bewildered. You relaxed slightly when your eyes took in his cape and crown.
โOh, itโs you.โ You tilted your head, looking at him curiously, making him want to shuffle on his feet, which was ridiculous. The Blood God did not shuffle his feet because he was nervous.
โYeahโฆโ He trailed off, making you raise an eyebrow expectantly.
โYou, umโฆ dropped this.โ He thrust his hand with the phial forward, like it was cursed, making you blink at the object and making The Voices cringe in unison, crying the lack of smoothness of the infamous Technoblade.
You took the potion from his hand, your fingers brushing his and making blood rush to his cheeks, a small smile on your pretty face.
โThank youโฆ umโฆโ You looked at him expectantly, making him wonder what it was you wanted, before he jolted with a realization.
โTechnoblade.โ You smiled and it did not make his heart skip a beat, don't be ridiculous, chat.
โThank you, Technoblade.โ You put the potion in your satchel, as well as the phial you had filled with water, and got up from your crouching position, smiling softly at the half-man half-piglin. You offered him your name, and The Voices received it like gospel, already melting into prayer to you. Your hand came up and he took it by reflex, shaking it awkwardly as you spoke.
โItโs nice to meet you.โ He grunted once, taking back his hand almost violently as a weird sensation climbed up from where you touched him and up his arm.
โYeahโฆ you too.โ He cleared his throat as you looked at him, bemused. That look, like you could see right through his eyes and into his soul, it scared him. So, The Blood God, for the first time, fled. He turned on his heel, murmuring an half-assed farewell and power-walked away, not without hearing your bright chuckle.
