Summary:

Wilbur+Tommy=Chaotic

Chapter Text

Techno knew there was something up with that vermin. When has there ever been a blonde raccoon in their neighborhood? Then on top of it screams in front of their house? He lets out a low snarl.

“Chat I’m a hero, I can’t kill a child.”

 

Since when?

 

Guys. He's been a hero since he was 19.

 

What-?

 

Bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

Idiots

 

RUDE

 

HOW COULD YOU NOT KNOW!

 

 

Exactly.

 

Techno sighed. How has he got this far without offing himself? That question will never be answered.

 

… 

 

Tommy got home with the information safely. He grabbed his laptop and clicked onto a new browser. He typed notdiscorddontsuemeplease.com and went to the guys information and messaged him.

 

Ring: I got your information

 

Anonymous: And why don’t I have it?


Ring: Send the money then I will give it.

 

Anonymous: This isn’t how this works. 

 

Ring: I don’t care how you “think” this works but I am going to tell you how this works because this information is worth much more than 10,000.

 

Anonymous: Bull. 

 

Ring: I got it directly off their computer.

 

Anonymous sent 100,000 to Ring

 

Anonymous: WAIT SEND 90,000 BACK!

Ring: Awwwwww, should have read my bio. No refunds. I’ll send you part of the file.

 

Anonymous: ONLY HALF?

 

Ring: I didn’t say how much I will cough up. Bye.

 

Ring sent file: Very Top Secret :O

 

Anonymous: YOU SON OF A B-

 

Ring went offline.

 

Tommy cackled. Only a hundred thousand? He could make millions off of this little usb.

 

He got up and went to his ‘den’. It was really the couch and he lifted the cushions so he could weasel his body in there. It worked with the dingy apartment that they have. The money would pay off their debts that they have. They might be able to upgrade their apartment if they pay off all of their debt first. 

 

Now you may be wondering, Tommy is that apartment legal? No, it wasn’t. Then again, it was run by a casino owner named Quackity and he gives it to them for free as long as Tommy works for him. Now is it very illegal for Tommy to work at a casino as a minor? Yes. Does he care? Absolutely not. 

 

Tommy didn’t really care about how the walls had holes in them, or how the water was cold, that is if they got water that day. He didn’t care if it wasn't warm (yes he did his raccoon instincts wanted and craved warmth). This was a house for him. This house wasn’t exactly home but it was better than the system.

 

Tommy shivered. He hated the system. All three of them were in the system, if he was honest, they never stopped looking for them. It was one of the reasons they all worked sketchy jobs that didn’t require ages or documents. Totally safe.

 

Tommy shook his head clear of thoughts. He has to get some sleep before work tomorrow or he will be dead tired. He yawned and curled his tail around his waist preserving warmth. He sighed as he felt the warmth and fuzziness of the tail. It reminded him of a blanket.

 

His eyes started to feel heavy and he let them droop. He was out like a light bulb within minutes.

 

 

“Thomas! What were you thinking!” The lady slapped him across the face, “You freak! How could you just put a perfectly good meal in water!” She grabbed him by the scruff and continued screaming at him.

 

He didn’t know what he did wrong. He was just following his instincts, was that a bad thing? 

 

He began to whimper and she chucked him across the room, “You are not an animal! Stop acting like one!”

 

He didn’t like this. He didn’t deserve this one bit! He is part animal, at least that is what the social worker told him.

 

He made another whimper and the lady was pissed, “If you want to act like an animal then fine! I will treat you like one.”

 

She walked out of the room to grab something. He looked around frantically. He saw a corner with a vent and limped to it. He slowly unscrewed the vent with his nails. He just got it open when someone grabbed his tail and lifted him up. 

 

“Tsk, that was a bad idea rodent,” the lady yanked him up to where the coffee table was. 

 

She put him down and pinned him. She pulled out something out of her pocket, a collar. He started shaking and tried to get away but he wasn’t strong enough. She put the collar and tightened it as much as she could while choking the boy. She was laughing at him-

 

Tommy woke up with exasperated breaths. He was drenched in a cold sweat and was shaking uncontrollably. He started making distressed chitters and his roommates came out of their rooms.

 

Ranboo was trying to talk to Tommy but all he could hear was a loud ringing noise. He saw blurs of colors. Everything was disoriented. 

 

… 

Something was seriously wrong with Tommy. Ranboo has never seen Tommy so stressed out since they left the foster home. Flashbacks perhaps? 

 

Ranboo knew he had to do something or else Tubbo would go into a panic attack. He grabbed Tommy’s hands and started to squeeze them while murmuring reassurances to him. It didn’t seem to work. Ranboo was left out of options.

 

Well he wasn’t completely out of options… 

 

He sighed heavily and scooped up Tommy into his arms. He whispered to Tubbo to go outside of the apartment which he thankfully did just as Tommy started screaming and ripping at his hair. 

 

Ranboo internally winced for what he was about to do. He placed Tommy in the bathtub and turned the water freezing cold and turned it on. Tommy started coming back to reality after about 3 hours.

 

… 

 

Tommy woke up hair soaked but in clean clothes. He noticed the speckles of sunlight kissing the walls of their run-down apartment. He noticed the clock that ticked every second but could only be heard if he tried very hard to hear them. He especially noticed how he was going to be late for work.

 

Tommy raised his hand to his face and rubbed the grogginess out of them and realized how cold he was. Ranboo must have put him in the shower he guessed. 

 

He stretched his limbs one by one hearing them pop and crack until they stopped. He stood up and strode to the closet in the bedroom and changed into khaki brown shorts and a red and white long sleeve. He grabbed his crappy phone and keys to the apartment and left while glancing at the note with his keys.

 

You may be late to work. Had a panic attack ttyl

-Ranboo

 

Tommy ignored it and went to the Casino.

 

By the time he arrived his shift already started. He clocked in and started wiping down the tables of any dust that could be existent from the last 5 hours they were closed. He checked his schedule and realized he wasn’t going to be working in the bar or with anything with alcohol beverages today. He was on the restaurant side today (what a relief).

 

After he got the day ready, he opened the shop and his co-workers walked in. He gave them a nod and walked to his side of the casino. There weren’t many customers in the food part of the casino, he groaned, today was gonna be a very long day. 

 

Around 12pm the flashing lights and very unholy things started up in the casino. It felt like there was pounding in his eyes. The music to tie it all off was on max volume. His customers finally left and usually that would be all he had to do because who goes to a casino for food after 11:59am?

 

Apparently a stupid brunette with golden rimmed glasses do because it was 3 in the afternoon and this buffoon thinks it great to annoy the hell out of Tommy.

 

“Welcome to Las Nevada's, How may I serve you?” Tommy spoke with his customer service voice.

 

“Are you a child?” The moron asked.

 

“I am not a damn child! Are you going to stand there and waste my damn time or order something?” Tommy snapped at him.

 

“Damn no need to be feisty. I would like black coffee plain, and a blueberry muffin.”

 

“Who the hell orders that in the middle of the day..” Tommy muttered to himself.

 

He took the man's card and swiped it and the man takes this as a time to socialize, “Sooooooooo,”

 

“What.”

 

“What have you been up to?” 

 

“Do you know how creepy that is? You’re asking a child to tell you about their life. Pedophile.” Tommy replied snarking while making the coffee. 

 

“So you admit you are a child!”

 

“No I am not a child.”

 

“You literally just admitted it.”

 

“I am only a child when it benefits me, keep up Caillou.”

 

“Caillou!? I’m not bald,  gremlin!”

 

“Have you looked in the mirror lately or-”

 

Caillou gasped, “How dare you!”

 

“Oh my Gods! You are a theater kid too? Why did the Gods curse me?”

 

“For your information my name is Wilbur not Caillou thank you very much! I hope I never see you again!” Caillou- Wilbur joked.

 

“Tommy and the feelin’ is mutual!” Tommy called out after him.
