Ngl The Funniest Thing WOTC Employees Could Do Rn Is Unionize While Their Bosses Are Distracted

I think what I enjoy most about tommy and techno's dynamic now is just how much tommy is leaning on him for support and just how unconditionally willing techno is to give him that. Though he shows plenty of exasperation and frustration at times with tommy, protecting him is never not an option. It's also not even a question for him to hide him from dream. Tommy is so clearly terrified and he needs reassurance that he'll be safe. And when that fear arrives, he gives tommy a choice. He can go see dream or he can hide. He can go to Logstedshire or run back home. He can stay behind in L'manburg or go back with techno. He can run from the Final Control Room or face his past. He obviously still doesn't like where tommy is at the moment- expressing annoyance and confusion at tommy's feelings towards dream- but he doesn't force a conclusion on him. Just quietly reminds tommy of what dream has done and lets him work it out for himself. And when tommy gets upset, like with the Final Control Room and Logstedshire, he doesn't push him to confront it, though it's clear he'd be supportive of any decision he makes about confronting his trauma. What techno understands right now is that tommy hasn't been treated as equal for a long time. Tommy isn't allowed choice. And now that tommy is finally free from all the people pushing him around, the best way to support him is to let him know that he can choose. Techno is right: tommy does have no free will. But it doesn't need to be like that forever, and as long as techno had a say in it, it won't.

as fitting as it would be for the clingyduo to die in battle with dream (regardless of if they defeat him or not), tommy and tubbo deserve to live. they deserve so, so much to heal and move on. possibly when tommy returns to his old dirt home, he realizes just how much he can't handle being there, how many bad memories it brings. tubbo opens the door of his home in snowchester to see tommy, standing with no coat on, shivering in the doorway. when he gets his best friend inside, berating him for not being prepared, tommy tells him that he wants to join tubbo in snowchester. he's prepared to defend himself, to promise to listen to the rules and not cause trouble, but tubbo doesn't hesitate in saying yes. they stay up late into the night, talking and laughing, and the next day they begin work together on tommy's new home. the first thing they finish however, becomes a small spruce bench on a hill by the sea, a jukebox sitting nearby. its usually too cold to sit for long, but neither of them care, because they're here, they're alive, and they're going to be okay.

HE'S!

FINE!

They are going to pass all of their finals

My memories are held together by meer threads...

Phil: It’s Christmas and you know what that means.

Tubbo: Everyone is going to try to kill each other at the dinner table?

Techno: The sweet release of death?

Wilbur: Getting drunk on my own while crying in the bathtub?

Tommy: The fact that I will only get coal from Santa?

Phil: I was going to say “ugly sweaters competition” but you know what? We’re going to therapy.

wake up, you’re dreaming again.
