#hibernating technoblade

[writing-oof]

Sometimes I Forget How to Wake Up (That's Okay. We'll Wait for You)

Day Five: (Situations Wheel) I got Hibernating Technoblade, so I speed-ran a nearly-1k hurt/comfort fic for this :]

TW: sleeping, fatigue, temporary paralysis

Technoblade doesn't make it to his room before it hits him.

He would have been fine, if he hadn't been pushing it back nearly a week now. He's just lucky he wasn't out in the snow when it happened.

He stumbles up the steps, his vision blurring and the world starting to spin. His limbs drag heavily, as if tied to stones twice his weight.

When he trips on the top stair, he can barely move his arms in front of him in time to catch the ground before it slams into his face.

His nose still clips the floor, even with his hands splayed in front of him, and a throbbing pain spreads through his head and behind his eyes.

It isn't broken, thank god, and Technoblade slumps over onto his side, curled up on the ground like a baby.

He considers making the fight to drag himself to his bed, just a few doors down, but he doesn't have much time to consider before he's gone. His eyes shut and his muscles fall lax, a heap of himself in his hallway.

---

Technoblade wakes up falling.

He would shout in surprise if his vocal chords weren't loose in his throat. As it is, he breathes out just a bit harsher than normal.

don't fall again someone says, quiet and soft.

Even Chat is quiet, apparently, lulled drowsy and slow.

It takes him far too long to realize he's being set down on his bed and not dropped off a cliff or something.

Philza meets his gaze, admonishing and fondly exasperated in equal measure.

dadza crafting a belt someone jokes.

"Mate," Philza says, his eyes too concerned for Techno not to twitch his gaze away. "You've really got to--"

He never hears what Phil tells him, his head drooping so quickly it snaps back to hit the pillow before the man can make it out.

---

The next time Technoblade wakes up, someone is sitting in the chair next to his bed.

It isn't Philza, and he can tell before he even wakes up.

The person breathes too shallow and smells too tense. There's something earthy to them, and something that couldn't be further from the earth.

Ranboo, Techno realizes, waking up stiff and sore.

Ranboo!

ender boi

good morning

He tries to look at the kid, get his attention, but his eyes stay stubbornly motionless. He can barely feel where one side of his face presses into his pillow.

Technoblade tries to move his hand with everything he has, but his fingers only twitch.

Ranboo must have been looking at him, because the kid makes a surprised noise and asks, "Are you awake, Techno?"

Techno twitches his fingers again and Ranboo makes a pleased noise.

"I'm glad you're awake," he says, "Phil was worried about you."

Techno would snort if he could. Sure, Philza probably fretted more than he should, but he can smell Ranboo's own anxiety from here.

sleepy

too tired

"I've--uh--I've never seen someone hibernate before," Ranboo admits, "It's pretty quiet, since you've been asleep most of the time."

big nap

Most of the time, not being all of the time.

Technoblade wonders if he'd said anything, or done anything in the moments between sleep he can't remember.

probably something stupid

heyy

shhh you're being loud

"I'm glad you're okay," Ranboo says and Technoblade rolls his eyes. In his mind, since his actual eyes still aren't moving.

L

If Ranboo says anything else, it's drowned out by the sleep calling for him again.

goodnight someone says, and no one says anything else for a good long while.

---

Tommy is in his room.

Technoblade flickers awake like an old candle at the sound of the door opening, his younger brother's scent thick in the air, letting out a soft noise as his fingers twitch.

"Morning, Blade," Tommy says, too quiet. Subdued.

Technoblade twitches again.

The bed creaks, the mattress dipping as Tommy comes to sit next to him.

The room is quiet, Chat whispering unintelligible complaints about being woken up early, and Technoblade can feel Tommy staring at him.

His eyes don't open still, too deep into the hibernation for his brain to want to work with any more sense than he has to, but he's too tired to remember to be worried about being blinded.

"How can you stand not being able to move like that?" Tommy asks, poking his cheek gently.

"Doesn't all that hair in your face drive you crazy?" he asks.

And, it didn't, before Tommy pointed it out.

But now that he knows it's there, feeling the strands stick to his skin and shift with his breath, Technoblade starts to feel like his skin is crawling.

He twitches his fingers and Tommy makes a contemplative sound.

"You want me to braid it or something?"

Technoblade thinks. He tries to, at least.

braid pog, someone offers and Technoblade doesn't have it in him to disagree. Besides, it does solve the problem.

He twitches his fingers and, listening to Tommy hum something soft and quiet, falls asleep with fingers in his hair.

---

Hibernating isn't safe.

He can't afford to do it when he's alone, even though his body does it anyways.

It's always a gamble, if he'll be alright when he wakes up, if he wakes up at all.

He's lucky he was home this time. He's luck he had a home to hibernate in this time.

But, he has a feeling that even if he'd fallen still in the snow he would have broken his hibernation in his bed surrounded by his family anyways.

JuneTBlade2024. The TechnoBlade's Month. Day 27. Peace / Paz. Day 28. Hibernate / Hibernar

Peace / Paz is a drawing about a Fic I love but don't remember... I'm wanted cry.

And Hibernate is about Convict Childcare AU by @the-final-sif Thanks!!!!!

[anarchy-and-piglins]

Tommy tries not to stay too long because Mareep gets sad when she's lonely.

She can't tell him this - she's a sheep and all. But she shows it in the way she nuzzles her gentle head into Tommy's chest when he returns, as if she's trying to push out all those sharp and bunched up feelings that get stuck there. They're not bad feelings though. Not good feelings either.

Just feelings. A lot of fucking feelings.

But Tommy likes visiting the cabin. Even back when, it always felt so far removed from everything else. So quiet, not always in the positive sense. He loved it and he hated it. That seems to sum up about everything he remembers from that time.

(He went in once, the first time he visited. Not anymore. Everything was covered in dust, hollow and empty, and Tommy couldn't breathe for reasons beyond the stifled air.)

Being there doesn't hurt the same.

Tommy still marvels at that. Yes, it still hurts and yes, it always will. But there's more than the hurt now. He remembers the laughter and the stupid jokes and the bench and Henry and man, does it feel as if he's aged a decade. He hasn't. He's young. And there's so much ahead of him.

Then the snow shifts behind him with the soft crunching of footsteps. He turns around, and a person Tommy has thought about pretty much every other day for the last eight months is standing against the treeline.

"Hullo," Technoblade says, as if they have seen each other yesterday. He looks a little less exhausted, and a little less jumpy than Tommy has ever seen him before. Tommy's hand curls around the handle of his sword and then relaxes.

"Hey," he says. Then he swallows. "I didn't know you still came around here."

"I don't," Techno says. "Just came to pick up some stuff I left behind."

"Yeah?"

Techno walks around him in a little arch, and in a way that keeps him facing Tommy at least from the side, never the back. Tommy hates that this is who they are now.

And then Techno scoffs lightly, kicking at some rocks Tommy had been piling into a tower once when he was deep in thought. "Bruh, you're not ruining my property value again, are you?"

Automatically, Tommy laughs. Bright and sudden, and sincere. "Wha- Fuck you, you just said you don't live here anymore."

"I could be on my landlord arc," Techno says dryly.

Tommy should leave it at that. The part deep inside him that still feels raw and scared - as if he's sixteen again and the ocean is endless before him - recoils at all of this. But Tommy knows that part of him can be wrong, sometimes, in how it reacts to things. In how it refuses to embrace change.

"What have you been doing?" he asks. Techno watches him for a moment, a little guarded. He shrugs.

"Farmin'," Techno answers after that small second of hesitation. "Hibernating. Just doing my own thing, away from everybody. I'm done being hounded by people." He brushes some hair from his face, longer now than when he was living on this server. Tommy doesn't think he has never seen Techno without fresh scars or bandaged knuckles. It suits him.

"Sounds nice," Tommy says. He thinks about his little cottage, and Tubbo's honey, and how he's been starting to grow his own flowers.

"It is," Techno agrees.

Tommy leaves quickly after that. But when he returns two days later, there is a glint of round netherite hanging from one of the fence post. A compass with an emerald inlaid in the back, that points to a place very far away.

Tommy doesn't think he's quite ready to follow it. But someday he will be.

[misty-doodles]

So like take your age old "what if Philza didn't activate the stasis chamber in time and Quackity actually put the pickaxe through Techno's teeth" scenario, but I get my hands on it.

So obviously this would be sad Techno whump bc he's just lost a cannon life, but we can make this a horrible time for everyone involved.

"Technoblade has been slain by Quackity using [Wardens Will Braker]"

Immediately confusion and shock rings out across the server as the message appears, because Techno had been wrongly and privately imprisoned. While the server doesn't necessarily like him as a whole, they certainly don't think he's as bad as Dream (i.e., deserving of prison).

The Syndicate is horrified and furious all at once. Not only were they unaware of Techno's imprisonment, they can't begin to fathom how Quackity got his hands on Sam's weapons and the ability to kill their friend. More importantly, Techno is down a canon life and has been made permanently half blind, though the shock of it all has sent him into a early hibernation.

Philza... He'd been just about to trigger the stasis chamber when he received the message. His hand hovered over the trap door, heart in his stomach as he read and reread the message. He'd been just a few moments too late. He was too late and his best friend died. Oh, he was going to find Quackity and Sam and he is going to tear them limb from limb. He was going to make Doomsday look like a creeper crater in comparison.

Sam and Quackity are frantic. Sam spends a good while berating Q for his idiocy, How could he be so stupid to kill Techno with his named weapon? Now the entire server is going to be on their asses and they're completely fucked. Sam has to physically restrain himself so he doesn't kill Quackity straight up. They'll need to flee, to run as far away as possible because Philza Minecraft will have their heads. Before they can do that, however, they'll need to deal with their remaining prisoner.

Dream... Dream was just plain scarred. He watched his only hope of freedom die graphically before him. Oh who is he kidding anymore. His one comfort and last remaining friend died and there was nothing he could do to save him. Now he's vulnerable, and even if he understands that there's no way Techno's coming back for him now, it fucking hurts. Worst still, he's left at the mercy of Sam and Quackity, who will either kill him outright, or drag him somewhere he'll never escape from.

He's yet to figure out which outcome is worse

1. out of my head, of my heart and my mind (Dream SMP)

Tommy let himself slump into a graceless heap on top of an apartment building, yanking his communicator out of his ear. The brick wall was rough on his back, and the pebbled surface of the roof dug into the spaces between his armour. The central tower of city hall loomed over him like an omen, Hero Tower shining oppressively behind it in the setting sun. Tommy propped his head in his hands, averting his gaze. 

2. A Revelation Starts To Form (Minecraft (Video Game), Dream SMP)

Phil almost runs into the soldiers when he turns the corner. He’s thinking of other things, hand under his cloak turning a carved wooden crow from Technoblade between his fingers, and footsteps in this stretch of corridor echo directionlessly. He catches himself, wings coming out to propel him away from the bodies he nearly collided with, and multiple pairs of hands come out as if to fend him off. 

3. the pressure and the panic you push your body through (Origins SMP)

When the Ender King’s guards hauled him back down the basement steps, the Crowfather’s left eye was swollen nearly closed, and his nose was so visibly broken it moved when he breathed.

4. Where You Go And I Will Follow (Dream SMP)

Most passengers on the system shuttle were napping or focused on media as it started the scheduled descent to the Vault. Phil gathered his things and checked the viewport again. The prison hung in space outside the shuttle, a massive unmarked cube in the void. There was an irregular sparkle in the empty half-km around the construction, the laser deflection array sparking as it vaporized micro-meteorites that dared to come close. The shuttle proceeded on a careful descent down the narrow path for transit in and out of the station, bracketed on each side by the prison’s security defenses.

5. Left Behind Everything I Knew (SMPEarth)

Technoblade had arrived at the stronghold at about three in the afternoon, the portal dropping him onto a glacier under a velvet-dark sky speckled with stars.

6. runnin' with this plan (pull me, grab me)  (Dream SMP)

The path through the evil wizard’s lair had been long and twisting, full of dead ends and magical traps and monsters summoned out of nowhere.

7. took a little journey to the unknown (Dream SMP)

The man with the cargo truck Phil had hired looked at his phone, then stepped forward to grab the final box out of the back. “Why don’t I help you bring this last bit upstairs, finish up?” 

8. You Fill My Lungs With Sweetness (Dream SMP)

Phil put a bowl of soup in front of Technoblade and then put one at his own spot, sitting down and settling his wings behind him as he picked up his spoon. “There we go. Let me know what you think.”

9. Makes The Rain Different (Dream SMP)

Techno shuffled sideways and dropped the new mattress into place, then stood back and considered the bed. He was tired—he was always tired nowadays—but it looked good. What was next on the pre-hibernation checklist? He called down to the ground floor. “Bed’s together, Phil, what did you say came next?”

10. I'm Not Askin' For A Miracle  (Dream SMP)

The Syndicate meeting had gone off the rails immediately, as usual.

Swapping between first lines and first paragraphs based entirely on vibes. Feel free to do this if you want to, even if not tagged.

[voicesfortheblade]

A little bit late, but with all the gifts officially delivered, we are ready to lay down the sword for this year's run of Voices For The Blade. We will once again be entering hibernation mode, and hope to be back in the spring of next year to do it again!

As usual, we would like to end the event with a big “Thank You”.

Thank you, to every single one of the donators, who showed us what it means to be One Of Us and who collectively raised over $1500+ for Sarcoma research and an additional $900+ for direct relief in Gaza. You all killed it ringing that bell.

Thank you, to all the contributors who freely gave up their time and talent so that we were able to deliver well over 100 gifts to the people who donated, and keep the spirit of c!Techno alive in such creative ways. We love to see it.

Thank you, to the mods, who made posts, oversaw the work, got in touch with people, kept track of everything, ran the discord smoothly, and struggled with all those spreadsheets. I mean, definitely didn't struggle with spreadsheets (First try, chat! Don't laugh at us!).

And last but not least, thank you, Technoblade, for leaving your mark on this community in such a way that even two years after losing you, we are still finding so many people eager to celebrate you. To share their kindness, bravery, and their laughter with us, like you did. We are forever grateful to have had you.

[nomsfaultau]

okay since Lambs!Philza clocks “Technoblade” first:

[m-graveyard]

Some c!dream story ideas (may or may not do them)

Some of these are cringe and I don't know what possessed me to write out these ideas

Don't come at me with pitchforks and torches

Anyway, I'm gonna go and try to get drunk on Ginger Ale to try and forget that I did this

Dream/Farfadox AU inspired by this art where Dream is locked up in an Asylum and declared to be mentally unwell when in actuality, he is possessed by a Dreamon, yet no one believes him. One day, a man visits the asylum and seems to have his eyes on Dream. Is this man someone Dream can trust, or someone he needs to be wary of?

One-shots about Philza, Technoblade, Dream, and Kristin living as a happy couple on the DreamSMP. Will go through the main storyline of Season 1 of the DreamSMP with some canon divergence where I see fit.

AU where Technoblade and Philza never joined the DreamSMP (will be a pain to figure out how to change the history without these two but whatever), Dream escapes Pandora’s Vault and leaves the server after making DreamXD the new admin (no one knows DreamXD became the new admin because he is bitter with the server for their hypocrisy against Dream and goes into hibernation after destroying the egg for good due to exerting too much energy). Years go by, and the server is slowly dying due to the admin not taking care of the server. The others realize they need the admin to fix the server, so they go off-world to find Dream and drag him back to the server to fix it, give away his admin privileges, and throw him back in Pandora’s Vault. However, what they don’t know is that in the many years that Dream was gone, Dream fell in love with the Angel of Death, Lady of Death, and the Blood God and is raising a family with them; Dream’s lovers are not happy when they discover their bonded was taken away from them and proceed to make the DreamSMP server members realize that NO ONE hurts Dream without facing consequences.

Oneshot series (or multi-chapter) where Dream is a retired God trying to live a somewhat decent life blending amongst the humans when he is kidnapped and held captive by an immortal Niki, who was a child sacrificed to him thousands of years ago. She wants him to suffer for what happened to her and all the other people sacrificed to please him. The problem is, that Dream left his people long before sacrifices were offered to him, and he is trying to figure out who the God demanding sacrifices under his name is while trying to escape from Niki’s clutches, which is proving to be more difficult than he thought.

AU where Dream, Techno, Philza, and Kristen are all happily married and living a good life on the Dream SMP when Dream, unfortunately, passes away from a terminal illness (similar to in John Wick). 5 years have passed, and Kristen goes to visit Dream’s grave, only to find a bleeding, terrified Dream from the Dream SMP universe where he was tortured and contained in Pandora’s Vault.

[the-lightest-shadow]

do you have any Technoblade headcanons?

Techno is a piglin. Not a hybrid, just a full, true piglin.

He isn't The Blood God but instead almost like The Blood God's champion. The blessing of this deity is part of why Techno didn't zombify upon leaving the nether. Because he's blessed by a deity of war he's actually holding back every single time he fights someone else in the SMP.

Techno's eyesight's never been good, and just ended up worse upon entering the completely differently lit overworld. He tries to not let it get to him too much, though. And clearly it doesn't worsen his battle prowess.

He ends up with really bad insomnia, and it's something that's kinda common among piglins. They can be awake without even being tired for up to a whole 2 months, but then they pass out for what's equivalent to half the time they were awake. His blessing lets him be up even longer, leading to full hibernation.

The "voices", or "chat", is actually a bunch of The Blood God's reapers, which is why when they do cooperate with each other they tend to tell Techno to kill.

Humorously, Techno manages to be both the kindest and cruelest person one will meet. You want him to be on your side, no matter what.

I also have at least two different interpretations, depending on whether I want him around Wilbur's age or much, much older. Those are even more headcanons stacked around but I've already typed up a lot.

As one of the characters I think about a lot and such, Technoblade has a lot going for him and I may be missing things here. Course it's safe to say I'm missing things regardless of character when it's general headcanons like this.

[kisuminight]

In the DSMP Blade System AU, what's going on with c!George post-Staged Finale?

So the thing about c!dnf, in all it's romantic and platonic versions, is that it's a very different beast from cc!dnf. Regardless of how you interpret the relationship between cc!dnf, it is one founded on a decade of interactions and closeness. c!dnf feels a lot shallower--mostly in the ways they fail to communicate with each other (and with c!Sapanp), so while many cc!dnf situations could potentially be overlaid onto c!dnf, I feel like the results (and maybe consequences) would be different if c!dnf were experiencing them.

The main thing that really stands out about this to me is c!George's feelings of entitlement towards c!Dream's attention and... love? Devotion might be a better word here.

And in the DSMP Blade System AU, George isn't really wrong to have that expectation. Blades love their Drivers, the same way the sun sets and the moon rises and the dragon rules the End. Even when a relationship goes really badly wrong, even when a Blade is pushed to the extreme where they become a Heartstealer by ripping the heart out of their Driver's chest, that desperation, that hate, is formed from love.

And it takes a Blade and a Driver sitting down together, talking with each other, and figuring out where there identities and feelings end and where the Resonance begins to discover what the underlying relationship is. Whether a Blade and a Driver love each other because they are love, or because it's romantic or platonic, as lovers or siblings or friends.

c!Philza, c!Technoblade, and c!Kristen have figured their relationship out. Dream and George never did, before Staged Finale. They probably never would have, because George took the fact that he was entitled to Dream's love for granted and Dream never started pushing back on that until he was sure he was going down a path where George would no longer be his Driver.

~

George shuts himself away, after the Staged Finale. He can tell that Sapnap has figured out he was probably Dream's Driver, and he is avoiding that discussion. Because George is trying to avoid the thought that Dream is dead.

It's not just that the new Dream (because Dream will be Awakened eventually, no one on the server is so stupid as to leave a powerful Blade as a core crystal) will not have any memories of their past. It is that the new Dream is not going to be George's Blade. Which means that he won't know who George is. Won't love him. Not unless George finds the core crystal first.

But George isn't very proactive. So he has his depression naps, which eventually turn into a type of divine hibernation state as DreamXD finds the sleeping George's mind, finds him interesting, and begins to draw George into his dream realms.

I have finally settled on a name for Aegis!Dream, and that is Reverie. I won't be changing past posts, but I will use it in the future. Reverie can mean a daydream, a loose/irregular train of thought, or a fanciful vision, which both fits with the general theme-naming and also how DreamXD remembers him, as an idealized version from his imagination.

Now, DreamXD can tell that George was in contact with one of Reverie/Aegis!Dream's fragments. But the broken Resonance means that DreamXD cannot tell that George was the Driver of the fragment. He initially gets close to George for the same reason he started interfering with c!Karl: he's trying to get information about the fragment from George.

But DreamXD slowly finds himself becoming more and more entranced with George, to the point of making the deal to have George be his friend forever. Because DreamXD recognizes something in George. The same melancholy that he feels, even centuries after having lost his Aegis. And DreamXD remembers a bit about Reverie's experiments with Blade memory. Maybe, after he's recovered Reverie (it won't be long now, all the fragments are coming home at last) he can recover George's Blade and they can fix it so the Blade does remember George again. That way he can have his first friend back, and have his new friend, and have his new friend's Blade be his friend and Reverie's friend.

A reminder that DreamXD doesn't know that Dream is a fragment of Reverie. Yet. And also that's not how the Memory Patch works, but shh. DreamXD gets to have hope for a bit.

They grow closer over the sixth month period after Staged Finale, and then George is called to the Red Banquet. George comes back with nightmares of the Egg in his heart (isn't that corruption familiar? It twinges at DreamXD's memory) and a seething hate for Quackity and the sword with the green core crystal. Of course Dream wasn't a sword, George knew Dream's Soul Weapon wasn't a sword--but for a moment, the colors looked similar and now George is reminded all over again of his lost Blade.

This is when he has the dream, the one where he burns the world and says to shattered delusion of Dream that faced him as a Blade in Techno's hands "I did this because you didn't come back."

It makes DreamXD disconcerted, because this isn't a fantasy born from DreamXD's own dream realms. This is something born from George, and it's almost exactly what DreamXD would do (has done) for Reverie. Only now, seeing this behavior in someone else, does DreamXD realize that it's unhealthy.

How do you pick apart a mentality that has defined you for centuries? How do you help a friend when they don't want to be helped? DreamXD is unwilling to fix himself, but he is willing to try to help George. George doesn't care not about anything else, not anymore, but DreamXD is so similar to his Dream that he slipped through the cracks in George's walls and George can't not. Even if it is about 100x harder without the emotional bleed of a Resonance.

So DreamXD teaches George how to astral project (spectator mode) instead of just pulling him into the dream realms, so George doesn't get quite so disconnected from the server and from life. And George helps DreamXD to remember the other fragments in his keeping, remember Drista, and start to wonder how they're like as individual Blades.

They're still not the healthiest for each other. DreamXD has attachment issues. George has issues with empathy in regards to other people. But they're trying, which is more than either have really done before (DreamXD retreated from the Goddess of Death. George has retreated from Sapnap). And together, they begin to heal.

Makes The Rain Different

Techno had thought that Phil was going to be sleeping next to him when he was unconscious, the same way that he did when Techno was not hibernating. He felt his stomach knot unpleasantly. “You’re going to the other house?” Phil blinked at him, cap of the pen in his mouth. “Well sure, I mean, you gotta get your fuckin’ soul to stitch back together while you sleep, I don’t wanna bother you.” Techno was well aware of the after-effects of the totem slamming his soul back in his body after the anvil hit. He didn’t want to discuss—that. He didn’t want Phil to leave him alone either. He raised his eyebrows down at Phil. “I put up with your snorin’ normally, don’t I?” Or: the execution left more than one type of scar for Techno to deal with, but he doesn't have to do it alone.

Guess what guys it is day one of @techzaweek and buckle in cause you're going to be seeing a lot more of me in the next week. A whole week for techno+phil posting? I have been working on this since January. And I also decided to try to work on writing fics that are not 10k, so hopefully I won't be dropping entire novels on you. Like this one, totally reasonable. Some disability feelings and emduo friendship, which I'm sure is shocking to anyone who sees my page. I hope you enjoy!

[bacon-n-canabananalism]

Decided to make a blog. Why? Dunno, it seemed fun. Who knows how much I'll use it. I like to hibernate, so I may not respond right away.

//Ooc//

Hulloooooo!!!! 👋 I'm Tech, the alter running this blog. We're bodily 18+ and would very much appreciate it if you were as well. I swear bc we have a chronic swearing problem, but I'll try not to swear too much in character. I'm a fiend for writing angst.

Main headcanons:

•Height is 7'5.

•Over 500 years old.

•He has a big ol beard and thick fluffy hair

•Tattoos and scars galore (can and will rant about his tattoos if you ask about them)

•C!Technoblade has a dissociative disorder and alters/parts bc I said so.

•Never seen a therapist, so he's raw dogging life with undiagnosed ADHD, autism, anxiety, BPD, and DID.

•He's a shapeshifter, but he stays in his piglin form for the most part unless he has very little energy.

•He has facial dysmorphia in his human(ish) form because he doesn't remember what he used to look like, and so his face has permanently(?) become piglin like. (Even before it changed, he had dysmorphia with his face)

•Nonbinary transmasc neopronoun user bc I said so. (He/him/they/them/thon/thons/thonself/its/its/cha/chaos/chaos's/chaoself)

•Sold his body to a god for scarless top surgery, unlimited testosterone, strength of 10 men, and immortality.

•Knew Dream in his gladiator days before he made the deal.

•Techno uses gifs and emojis like an old man.

•After the execution attempt, the clock started ticking. His immortality was somehow nullified by the server's magic after using the totem, and now he has three lives just like everyone else. Previously, he was unaffected by joint pain and healed almost instantly, but now he's starting to feel his age catch up to him.

Things we DON'T do on this blog:

•Cc shipping, that's gross🫵

•Cc!Wilbur and cc!Dream (and more) are awful people, so if you support them, please go kick boulders.

•Not separating characters from their content creators. Cctechnoblade didn't bomb an entire country, ctechnoblade didn't either, but you didn't hear that from me.

•Be weird to minors

•General DNI stuff (like being a bigot in any capacity)

Daily ask №19!

Random thoughts edition!

1. Why does everyone else have normal names but Blade is THE Blade? Nobody calls Tommy The Tommy. Is The his first name and Blade his last?

2. Tubbo's opinion on bumblebees

3. What if Tubbo was made out of other insects ex. Worms, butterflies, mosquitoes (that one would be horrifying) etc

4. Do swears in other languages also get censored? With the word muffin in English or in the language of the swear word? What if there isn't a word for muffin in the language?

5. What would happen in the Fault crew tried to ride a bike? Assuming they each get a bike according to their proportions (Wilbur's changes height, yes). And Tubbo gets their legs back just magically. + What would their bikes look like? (Ex. Filled with stickers, minimalist black sleeky bike, a poorly bedazzled one, one that's barely holding together)

+ a bonus question, you technically didn't answer the first question in the last ask, aka what if the fault crew gets into dsmp in Pogtopia, and I was actually sorta excited for the Slowly going mad Wilbur meeting with the fault one, the whole right after the festival Tubbo meeting, Technoblades strategizing together, Fault Phil potentially getting noticed by C!Mumza, Tommy.. not sure abt him tbh. But you get the point. You don't gotta answer but I'd appreciate it!

Alright lets gooooo not writing this at 11 this time

1. Why does everyone else have normal names but Blade is THE Blade? Nobody calls Tommy The Tommy. Is The his first name and Blade his last?

No first or last name, simply The Blade (thuh not thee, he’s not the definitive blade by which all other blades are measured). That’s what he decided to name himself back when he was developing a sense of identity, which would’ve been around the edgy teenage years. In formal settings he’s Mr. The Blade, and he’ll tease you if you forget the The. And it’s always The Blade, not the blade, unless you’re Tubbo and it’s a subconscious undermining of The Blade’s personhood.

In Doyalist explanation, it’s cause I felt like the name Technoblade stuck out in the settling and broke emersion. Which I figure is not a problem for anyone really deep in the sauce. What I do for Techno’s name really depends on the piece. In MFR it’s intentionally Techno (not Technoblade as Phil calls him) as a casual and alienation from the naming conventions of the rest of sbi. In more modern settings he might be Techno, in fantasy it’s Technoblade.

2. Tubbo's opinion on bumblebees

Stupid and cute. They probably try to avoid other hives to limit territorial disputes, competition for pollen, etc. They are prejudiced against wasps tho. Which does not reflect the author’s views.

3. What if Tubbo was made out of other insects ex. Worms, butterflies, mosquito (that one would be horrifying) etc

The key principle of Tubbo is the eusociality of colony bees and their construction of nests. This is not a trait shared by worms, butterflies, mosquitoes, and other species of bees which are independent organisms. Organisms such as termites, ants, and wasps would be on the table. It would be hard for termites and ants given most of them can’t fly so their movement would be very difficult. They’d be very heavy, potentially made of soil and mounds. Wasps would function very similarly to current Tubs, though I believe their morals would be rather different as to attack another isn’t as much as a personal cost.

Tubbo could also be made of moles, which are the only eusocial mammals. Or I guess we can open it to other forms of cooperative units. Like rats. Or lions.

But as to the real question, I think it would be fun for worm Tubbo to have like more rot alignment, things start decomposing if around them long enough. And if they’re monarch butterfly aligned (since I know that species at least has some seasonal colony behavior) then they’d have different level of power at different time of years in accordance to the super migration. And hibernate in winter everyone say aww in the chat. Mosquito would make addition into the Hive mind extra sinister, since it gets this edge of we need to take the blood and bodies of people in order to maintain our population.

4. Do swears in other languages also get censored? With the word muffin in English or in the language of the swear word? What if there isn't a word for muffin in the language?

Wilbur and Philza test this.The further the language gets from relation to modern English the less likely swears will be censored by Halo. Philza is pleading for the day linguistic drift allows him new modern swears because this will affect him forever and ever because it is a permanent curse upon any who have ever cursed within a set distance from Halo. It is always the word muffin regardless if the speaker knows what muffin means. It also censors written words, and rude gestures. Also it’s not always the most consistent? Like sometimes hell gets censored, other times it isn’t. Tubbo gets to say bastard once. I’m not sure how slur identity politics interact with it. Halo is the final arbiter of who gets the n-word pass. He would solve all twitter disputes and start many new ones.

5. What would happen in the Fault crew tried to ride a bike? Assuming they each get a bike according to their proportions (Wilbur's changes height, yes). And Tubbo gets their legs back just magically. + What would their bikes look like? (Ex. Filled with stickers, minimalist black sleeky bike, a poorly bedazzled one, one that's barely holding together)

Tommy begs and begs for his to look like a motorcycle. He wants flame decals and everything. His handles are extra grippy of help with slipping hands. Phil’s seat is probably strange to deal with his tail. It’s an absolutely ancient prototype bike with the massive front wheel and he works very hard to keep it functional. If Wilbur’s changes with height he’s using it to run over people lmao. It’s a very un proportional bike since his arms don’t change. Also wil adores the transportation/escape option. It’s a very ratty bent up hunk of junk and is covered in scratch and bite marks much like its owner. Not sure what bike can transport nearly three tons of pork but I trust you. The Blade is very bad at riding it since balance is not his forte. The bike is a hectic mess as its design was created by committee (the voices). So it has all designs ever. Stickers for movies and books the voices like, stupid horn on the front, basket to carry cheezits, literally 8 different paint colors. (I’m just going to assume this is Tubbo prior to the leg injury since that would create more immediate pressing things to address re:character rxn, and Tubbo has already rejected an offer of magic instant legs in fic.) It’s covered in painted on flowers and stars much like their prosthetics, and has Dino stickers slapped on. Rhodes is very concerned about the fact they can’t wear a helmet with their antenna. Tubbo is not, because Tubbo is aware they can fly. Jasmine brags about being able to ride without training wheels. 

+ a bonus question, you technically didn't answer the first question in the last ask, aka what if the fault crew gets into dsmp in Pogtopia, and I was actually sorta excited for the Slowly going mad Wilbur meeting with the fault one, the whole right after the festival Tubbo meeting, Technoblades strategizing together, Fault Phil potentially getting noticed by C!Mumza, Tommy.. not sure abt him tbh. But you get the point. You don't gotta answer but I'd appreciate it!

Realizing that allowing time between the festival and the overthrow lets everything fester, I think the anomalies will push for immediate action, especially since they’re in a different weight class. This would also prevent the chaos brigade (? name? Idk fuzzy) from having time to ally with JSchlatt. Techno is ruffled about having less prep time due to advancing the timeline, but him and The Blade get real into the strategy and can try hard it together. I think this could give 1. less time for wither gathering (and TNT) and 2. The Blade is pretty against collateral damage, and might advise against it. I don’t think it would convince Techno, but the limited prep time could mean the schism causes less damage. 

Fhilza is distinctly going to start Cwilbur on therapy. Like immediately after Filbur is like mmm dad this is ending badly (it has big trauma around explosions particularly). I reckon Cwilbur isn’t pleased with it but Fhilza is persistent above all else. And can introduce him to far more direct intentional tactics to ‘stick it to the man’ since Fhilza for all his faults is extremely intentional in the damage he causes. FTubbo is like well great apparently the blade sucks in all universes. I suppose this is right after the Pit, so The Blade is pretty horrified how nonchalant Technoblade is about just going with the voices and killing Tommy. Though he feels a lot safer in the dsmp universe since everyone having extra lives means he has a lot more grace if he messes up. 

And FTommy can relate so heavily so holding onto a relationship that’s starting to become toxic. Not that I imagine his advice to CTommy is good. But he can relate. 

I don’t imagine any of the Fault crew are particularly pro institution after their brush with the fascistic Foundation. Not that they’d go on the attack like Techno, but as often as they arrive to decisions by votes they might slow down the proceeding to something less rushed and hectic. And again, just super duper killing green boi wound decrease the predator pressure urging them to act fast and panic and be extreme in decisions at times. And at the very least, Tubbos’ surveillance would notice if CWil tried to rig everything up, so I imagine L’Mangburg doesn’t get that wither and explosion damage. 

Mumza in Fhilza would be so fascinating bc they're both immortals that pick out little mortals. I think they would both make a point to be very amicable since well if they're going to be bumping into each other the rest of eternity it's better. She can probably taste Fhilza's longing to keep his mortals, but I think he knows better than to ask.

hey what if I came out of hibernation to headcannon that the mania that typically takes the life series winners as they win is the influence of Technoblade’s blood god?
