  1. Summary

    i figured it'd make it easier on people if i put all of my quackity & technoblade fics together? they're not necessarily connected to each other like, fic wise tho !
    they're ordered in the way i posted them, and you don't have to read them in that order bc they aren't meant to be a proper series but i guess they could be?? like i thought about the other fics as i wrote but they're all kind of oneshots!

    Summary

    “Nie Huaisang?” he demands, stumbling down the dirt path towards him. “What- are you the one who took down my wards?!”

    He looks—awful. His eyes are sunken, his cheeks sallow. The robes he is wearing are nothing like the luxurious fabric he used to wear when he was still Yunmeng Jiang’s first disciple. Instead they are thread beard and worn, from a coarse fabric that looks irritating to the skin. There is a shakiness to his gait that Nie Huaisang has never seen from his friend, who always walked with such a presence as if to defy a world that has sentenced him to death.

    “Of course it was me!” he scolds. “You really should take better care and hide your talismans.”

    Wei Wuxian, rudely enough, ignores his (useful!) advice and instead looks at him like he’s mad. “What are you doing here?”

    “Betraying the gentry and siding with evil, duh,” Huaisang rolls his eyes. “Now, will you let me in? I’m hungry.”

    Summary

    It is an odd thing, to be the only adult amidst a gaggle of teenagers.

    Frankly, it is exhausting. They have certain…. expectations of him, especially the Gusu Lan juniors, and Huaisang has made it a life mission of his to never rise up to anyone’s expectations, but they just won’t let it go.

    -

    It is weird to realise that you have lived longer than you've planned for. Nie Huaisang learns to deal with the aftermath.

    Summary

    “Are you aware of your location and all?” the other sacrifice pressed. “‘Cause obviously we’re in a rather, ah, concerning position. A bit of a shit position, one might say, and please don’t ask me for details on those sorts of positions or I’ll have to report you to your mother.”

    “You’re saying that to an orphan?” Techno mumbled. He tried to stand, surprised himself by stumbling; the blond caught him by the arm before he could fall over completely, which turned this into an incredibly embarrassing moment he planned to forget as soon as possible. “Rude. Insensitive.”

    “You’ve got pink hair and you’re like five years old, you don’t get to experience manners,” the kid informed him. “I’m Tommy, by the way, I’ve been here for fucking days. Did you happen to see the way out?”

    Techno shook his head mutely. His thoughts were weirdly muddled, trampled like rotting feed; he felt like he was floating, and sitting down made the floating feeling significantly worse. Possibly a mortal form was more fragile than he’d assumed.

    Summary

    Techno scooped a couple plates off the couch and put them in a stack by the wall. “So, you found a guy.”
    “I sure did!” Wilbur said. “Go on. Guess where I found said guy.”
    “This is going to sound insane,” Techno said, sitting down.
    “I promise you it can’t be weirder than the truth, after the evening I’ve just had,” Wilbur said. He pulled a towel out of the laundry basket on the coffee table and sat on it. “I promise.”
    “That guy isn’t a historical reenactor, is he,” Techno said.
    “I am really beginning to think he is not, no,” Wilbur said, and put his head in his hands. “Technoblade, what am I going to do?”

    Summary

    Okay so shapeshifting into The Crow was objectively a bad idea, but on the other hand, he got to literally wear a mask in public and nobody was saying his real name. He could mess up, and it was like a whole different guy had messed up! Social anxiety life hack, simply do not be yourself when you make mistakes and then you won’t make mistakes. Technoblade had even spent a couple evenings at home in the shapeshift, eating everything in his fridge, and the wounds he’d presented with had slowly closed up. He’d washed the blood out of the suit too. His bathtub had looked like someone had died. It barely even hurt to be a superhero any more, and no one had said his name in a tone of confused condemnation in like a week. They’d said The Crow’s name, admittedly, but that hardly counted.

    Someone burst through the front door of the coffee shop, face pale. “There’s a kid stuck up on a ledge on the fourth floor, does anybody got a ladder?”

    Every eye in the coffee shop turned to look at the superhero standing at the milk and sugar cart with his drink. Techno gulped. “Uh, hi,” he said.

    Or: Technoblade is a secret shapeshifter who's just realized that superheros get free food. Hijinks ensue.
