Summary
“You’re angry,” Techno said, stepping back; and there was Techno, the man he’d come to know, the man who thought highly of him, was considerate of his boundaries, the man he called a friend. Ranboo didn’t know if he was angry. He looked at Techno and he saw home, but now, whenever he’d look at Tubbo, look at his scars, he would be confronted with the fact that his friend had done this. Was this what everyone had talked about back then? Was it truly betrayal to affiliate with someone who had hurt your friends, even if they had only ever shown you kindness?
Perhaps it would not have felt so conflicting if Techno was not so insistent that no harm had been done—or would it? Did it really change anything when the fact of the matter was that Techno had his husband’s life on his conscience, not once but twice?
"I'm tellin' you, man, he's fine. Hasn't said a word about it after—"
"What the hell is wrong with you, Techno?!"
/////
Or: Ranboo finds out the truth about Techno and Tubbo, and it turns his world on its head.

sing me awake with a song about pirates by LiquidSpirits

Summary
Ed had fallen for Stede.
Stede, on the other hand, had walked toward him with a clear purpose in mind, and had not stopped since. Regardless of how many steps Ed took back, no matter how many times he lashed out and pushed him away, Stede always righted his stupid hair and his stupid clothes and re-donned his stupid smile and kept walking. Stede had walked into love with his eyes wide open, with his hands at his sides and only one goal in mind. He wanted Ed, had wanted him from the moment he’d heard his name carried his way across the waves, and had not wavered in his desire through fights and disagreements, or even those rare nights when Ed would wake in a cold sweat and scream.

Summary
He was about to stand, a hand outstretched, ready to cup Ed’s damp face in it, but Ed stopped him. Took it in his own instead, and dropped to his knees by the bed. Like a worshipper in front of an altar, looking up to their god, because that was the only way Stede deserved to be looked at. “Nothing’s fucking wrong,” he breathed. Stupid Stede. He was so stupid, and Ed loved him so much, and he was in the process of learning that Stede loved him too, and it was all so much.
“Then what—”
“It’s not fucking fair.” One knuckle at a time, Ed pressed his lips to Stede’s hand. Devoted as he’d never been to anything before. Anything, he thought, name anything, you’ll have it. He would have gotten Stede the stars off the sky, the sea itself in a bottle.
/////
Or: Ed makes a very spontaneous decision. He's never been so sure of anything.

Summary
Want. Because that was what it was. That was what it needed to be in order for Ed to let it be, to let it grow steadily instead of taking it at the root and yanking it from his mind. Want. He wanted to take Stede apart, just as Stede had done to him. He wanted to take his entire world in his hands and rock it back and forth, upturning inkpots and vases, smashing all he held dear to pieces as he went, one priceless painting, one set of golden cutlery, one intricately made piece of furniture at a time. Ed had returned, and found it had been the wrong decision, because Stede turned him into a mess of a man, a husk of who he used to be, and Ed liked it, but he couldn’t let himself like it, because if men like Stede were all it took to bring men like Ed, like Blackbeard, to their knees, then there was so much more Ed did not know, so much he had missed out on, and he could not admit that to himself.
/////
Or: Ed is conflicted. Stede takes the choice from him.

Summary
A silence had stretched between them again, like dust settling to the ground after a battle. Dust and gunpowder and hair torn from scalps, and two men locking eyes from across a ship for the first time in ages. Ed may have given a response, but Stede hadn’t needed one. He’d traced the planes of that face, once, during a night with far too much alcohol and far too little sleep. He’d watched it from afar and up close, learning the shapes better than his own, until he was sure he would know them blind. Ed had not lit up, had not vibrated with joy, but he had ducked his head and smiled at the ground, and that had been enough.
///
Or: Ed and Stede navigate through the awkwardness of healing, because It's them, and It's worth it.

Summary
Ranboo&Techno&Phil shenanigans with occasional Ranboo&Tubbo or Ranboo/Tubbo thrown in there (they're married but I'll leave their feelings for each other up for interpretation).
Lots of angst, as well as themes of grief.

three months of letters (OLD VERSION) by idontwritelemons

Summary
Tommy knows the drill. He's been in and out of foster homes all his life. He makes it a game to see how quickly he can get kicked out of homes.
Dream used to tease him for 'speedrunning the system'.
But this family is different. Its stay with them for the full three months, or move hours away from all Tommy's friends.
Whatever, it shouldn't be too hard to stick around and not get attached. Besides, nobody wants a raggedy sixteen-year-old off the streets.Right?
Or- just another found family fic with foster sbi, there's no shortage of these fics but ofc i had to do one too... with a twist ;)

Bookmarker's Notes
when i tell you. that i am in an ongoing state of absolute devestation. screaming crying punching the floor.
if you know my alt you'll know that i am like the opposite of a c!dream apologist. dude's like the main villain in my stories. but holy fuck holy shit oh my god this is my first public bookmark (among like 500 private ones, if you know you know) because this deserves all the attention it can get. fuck. the amount of tears i shed over this. the amount of conflicting feelings that turned into a changed mind.
(don't get me wrong, the dude still sa'd ranboo in my head. totally. but in this fic, just this version of him, he's okay. dream's alright.) and honestly even if this doesn't convert you it's just?? such a good time?? all the characters get such important screen time and feel like fully fleshed out people and the writing style is so digestible and easy to read without feeling half-arsed and i just. man. i put my own work on hold for this because fuck.
