Summary
splinter is an onemotepeia, you think. the heavy, downward jar of the first syllable. the crack of the t again your palate, snapping your stretched-thin existence into another fragment like a brittle pane of old plastic.

Summary
The first time Ranboo falls in love, it's a boy with the most neatly pressed suit he's ever seen. The boy's got whiskey on his breath and freckled scars spattered across his face like the milky way itself fell down and burned him, and he talks about policy and rebuilding and Ranboo doesn't hear a single goddamn word he says.

Summary
Slowly, you are assembling a nest for the god. Gelignite and ammonium perchlorate-laden warehouse cathedrals. Flashing satellite dishes that blink out psalms. You mutter litanies of launch code keys under your breath as you work.

Summary
(He is a lamb to the slaughter, useless and gentle and fragile-forgiving, and he is cracked open, torn cleanly in half, oblation to gods who are less real than he is. Burnt offering on the altar. Charred, twisted husk of something that should not be alive.)
It is the sixteenth, and tubbo is dead, and burned, and terrified.
It is not as bad as it could be.

Summary
ranboo laughs, and it’s a soft, breathy, wheezing sound, and his hand is so, so close to tubbo’s where it’s flat on the stone slab, and he’s leaning back, shoulder pressed against tubbo’s, head tilted up, lanky legs hanging over the edge of the tower where they’re sitting.
when they first met, president and unwilling traitor (such old, crumpled descriptors. so much has changed.), tubbo had thought he was pretty. a sneaking, stupid thought in the back of his mind had whispered that maybe, if it came down to it, he wouldn’t mind dying to a boy like him.
---
they're stupid and dumb and soft and that's, like, literally everything that happens.

Summary
Maybe it was the lack of his shades, the lack of his stupid beat-up baseball cap, the lack of the permanent frown etched into his face every waking moment of the day, but you’d always be hit with some weird, intangible feeling in the center of your chest, the sudden realization that, when he was out cold like this, he looked small.
Young. Fragile, almost.
Human.

Summary
According to Tommy, death leaves you touch-repulsed and aloof. That's why it's so surprising that Wilbur Soot, post-resurrection, is one clingy, touch-starved motherfucker.
Or: Wilbur copes by cuddling. Tommy's the one who has to put up with it.

Summary
Wilbur is a nightmare incarnate, the monster at the end of the book, the villain with blood-soaked footsteps and a crazed laugh and evil, maniacal plans. Wilbur is all of that. Wilbur is bad. Wilbur is nothing but bad, through and through.
Wilbur is crying.
In which thunder can sound a lot like trains, and Tommy is reminded, very suddenly and very painfully, that Wilbur Soot is human.

Summary
Wilbur dies as passably human, and is dragged out of the void with wings made of smoke and stardust and soot, a birthright he had never received.
There's just the small matter of caring for them, and possibly himself in the process.Or; in which a father's advice is an absolute last resort, touch starvation and emotional constipation are a bitch, and two brothers bond.
