Tiny impulse lost in the nether- a totempulse au concept by @shadeswift99

- timeline: after the code fuckery. before they discover the void thing.

- Tango has been having problems with the code, so team zit decides to take a break and do a stress relief activity! Something they can all do together, even though Impulse is tiny.

- they decide to go blasting for netherite. Impulse being totemificated even helps with this, since he can explode the beds without taking any damage

- they have to go pretty far out to find a place that hasnt been mined out yet, so they bring a lodestone compass to help find their way back.

- Tango is the one chosen to carry the compass. This might have been a mistake.

- they get the netherite just fine! but on the way back, standing on a ledge they thought was safe, a ghast spits a fireball at them, breaking the netherrack they stood on and plunging them into the lava.

- Impulse and Zedaph, being totemificated and therefore fire resistant, survive. Tango does not. And Tango had the compass.

- Zedaphs wings also got a little messed up by the blast. He'll heal, but he cant fly right now.

- Now Impulse and Zedaph are lost in the nether. Its especially bad for Impulse, who is tiny. Everything is so much scarier when you are small.

- they find each other in the lava, and since it isnt hurting them, they just kind of chill there for a bit waiting for Zed's wings to heal.

- they are scared and lost and missing Tango, but at least they have each other.

- talking to distract from the pain. and the panic. and the general bad times theyre having right now.

- tiny Impulse trying to comfort Zed by wrapping his wings around him, but he's just so small and can't reach.

- he eventually settles for hugging Zed's hand instead. then he figures out he can hug hin twice at once, one with his arms and another with his wings. Thats really what they both need right now.

- they get back to the overworld eventually. and now impulse can hug tango and zed at the same time!

- hes not big enough for group hugs anymore but he can hug Tango with his arms and Zed with his wings and thats enough.

- before you go, please take this tinypulse doublehug.
