Day 5 - Empty

included Tommy from my Eburnean Tommy au (i'll post about it here later)

[kitkatsunez]

Day 18 is “Fandom AU” so I went with Eburnean Tommy !! This poor guy can fit so much trauma into him

[nekole-doodles]

From May 24-28 2022 - Eburnean Tommy AU sketches:

[Transcript of text in drawing is below my rambling]

This was the first drawing/series of drawings I drew that could count as actual drawings that I was actually proud of(we don't talk about my first sketchbook :/)

Also, the anatomy thing to the left of the top right drawing and the eyes below the same drawing was art advice by a very artistic friend of mine :D

So, this was around the time I was first getting into Dream SMP and I found Bludoby's Eburnean Tommy AU and loved it! I think it was the first original AU I got invested in. This was as I was developing my art style and figuring things out so it's rough around the edges but way better than past drawings.

The reference for the top right drawing came from Bludoby's second Eburnean Tommy video called "Killed and revived over and over again". The reference of the left middle drawing was from Bludoby's "Accident" video. The reference for the bottom middle drawing is from their Twitter but idk when they posted it.

Text Transcript:

[Top right: "and then I'll kill you again and then I'll revive you" repeated]

[Bottom of top right drawing: "I can't draw natural looking shirt rips or proportional features to save my life TvT"]

[Left of middle bottom drawing: "yellow butterflies :D (Idk what the yellow butterflies represent in this AU, they're just there"]

[Top right of middle bottom drawing: "side profiles kinda suck" (then below that line:) ":) kinda proud of this ngl"]

[Near the badly drawn bird on Tommy's arm: "birb :)"]

To Who Used To Be My Best Friend

There's so many words I should've said back then And I'm not sure I'll ever get this chance again To say to you, my dear best friend All these words so that you'll at last understand

I remembered very little of who you were to me So when I looked at you, all I could do was stare blankly While my father and his friend tried what they could to make me happy, You only tried to bring back my past memories

It was going to backfire, that we both knew But you couldn't bare who I'd grown into So while I tried to adjust; to just start anew You tried to run and hide from the truth

I couldn't blame you for being afraid Everyone was; I was more than they could take But you left me alone because I wasn't the same And brought to me the question of if I'm really me

I remember the day you left me alone I still don't know how I found my way home You left me for expressing that I didn't know A song on a disc which I once held close

"Are you even Tommy?" Isn't it funny That was the question, that day, that you asked me

If I'm being truthful, I'm still unsure How to explain why those words hurt To hear my best friend, or so I thought you were Ask me a question like that which I couldn't answer

There is no answer to if I'm really me Because in truth, no longer do I feel I'm Tommy Tommy was the friend of the boy who loves bees But now those friends are just you and me

Day 2: Crown (12 Days of Writers Self Love)

I couldn’t decide which of two ideas I wanted to do more, so I did them both! Apologies if this got a little long. I really did enjoy writing these, this challenge is turning out wonderfully! Many thanks to @writeblrfantasy for creating it!

1. Hermitcraft Season 8, White Wings AU (main story here) 2. Hermitcraft Season 9, Third Life SMP

1. HC Season 8, White Wings AU

Tommy had seen many crowns in his lifetime.

The gem-encrusted crown of the SMP, first worn by Eret, and then George.

Ranboo’s humble diadem, studded with rough-cut rubies and emeralds mined by hand from the depths of the earth.

The golden spikes adorning the top of Sam’s Warden armor, fused to the mask he had worn more and more often.

Techno’s simple golden circlet, twin to Phil’s silver one, relics of an empire long past.

But he had never worn one of his own before now.

False measured out a length of copper wire before presenting it to Tommy with a wink. “It’s easier if you start with this.”

Gem taught him how to weave stalks of grass together, how to twist and braid the fragile stems around the wire until they formed something resilient, stronger. Something complete.

Stress regaled him with the meanings of different flowers, what made them grow the best, which ones were good for tea or scents or dyes. Under her careful eye he worked Queen Anne’s lace, lavender, daffodils, and yellow orchids into the strands of his masterpiece.

Iskall chuckled as he swept a lock of Tommy’s ivory hair away from his eyes. “Ready?” He asked, his organic eye twinkling with warmth as it darted around Tommy’s face. Tommy nodded, expression implacable, and Iskall placed the completed flower crown gracefully among his curls. The Swede examined his handiwork for a moment, tucking hair or flowers into place, before nodding in satisfaction.

Iskall picked up his own creation from the ground beside him, sporting purple asters and orange orchids, and crowned himself with a flourish. Tommy tilted his head, judging through squinted eyes. After a few seconds a small smile rose to his face, and he nodded in approval. It's good. I like it, he signed.

A small noise made them both turn to where Xisuma was seated on the soft grass, his crown of blue bellflowers and pink dahlias resting crookedly on top of his helmet. He was struggling to right it, but the mechanical axolotl gills on either side of his visor made it so that the woven headress kept slipping. “I guess I’m just not made for crowns,” he said good-naturedly when he noticed them looking, giving up the fight and leaving the flowers slightly off-kilter.

Perfect, Tommy signed to him, and the admin let out a surprised laugh. “Perfect? I suppose it does suit me. I’m a bit of derp even on the best of days.”

Tommy leaned back, and let the sun hit his face. Laughter danced in the wind as the Hermits delighted in the carefree summer day. He had never felt so far and yet so close to home.

// Yes, I know these flowers wouldn’t all exist in the same climate as each other. But honestly this is Minecraft fanfiction so lower your expectations and let me have my dramatic flower symbolism :’D 

// I really like that trope in fiction, I wish people did more of it. And can you tell I’m a sucker for found family? Lol

// Not me giving my headcanons for the DSMP crowns and forgetting all about the MCC champion team crowns. 💀 MCC is only sort of canon to this universe.... we can chalk it up to ww!Tommy never participating in MCC before, that’s only for the really famous competitive types like Technoblade and Grian. Yep. Definitely no plotholes here.

// Flower Meanings  vvv

Tommy:

Queen Anne’s lace (safety, sanctuary, and refuge)

Lavender (purity, silence, serenity)

Daffodils (rebirth, new beginnings)

Yellow Orchids (new beginnings, friendship, joy)

Iskall:

Asters (love, wisdom, trust)

Orange Orchids (pride, enthusiasm, boldness)

Xisuma:

Bellflowers (affection, constancy, unwavering love)

Pink Dahlias (elegance, grace, kindness)

2. HC Season 9, 3rd Life SMP

Kingmaker. That’s what they called him.

Ren rolled the chess piece between his fingers, relishing the weight of the solid obsidian. It made a satisfying clack as he placed it back in its spot on the board. The black queen.

If he was the king, the ruler over the entire Hermitcraft server, then Bdubs would be his queen. He certainly wielded enough power; it was through Bdubs’ support alone that Ren won the crown. Bdubs was the one who built the Crastle for him, who was his advisor, defender, friend. His second-in-command, his right… hand….

Ren frowned, unease rising in his gut, a sudden chill burning the tips of his fingers. He curled his hands into fists on reflex. Something wasn’t right.

He rose from his throne with a growl and swept down the stairs from the royal dais, his cape billowing out behind him. His paws made no noise on the plush carpet running down the center of the throne room, keeping away the chill of solid stone.

“Sir BdoubleO? Your king summons you!” Ren called, his voice echoing through the empty stone halls. He waited a few moments, but only silence answered.

“Bdubs? Where are youuuuu….” His words bounced eerily off of the cavernous ceilings, echoing back as if mocking him. He hesitantly ventured down a hallway, turned, and was faced with an identical hallway. He followed it, but that only yielded another similar looking passageway. The next was almost exactly the same. And the next. Ren frowned. He hadn’t remembered there being quite this many corridors in his Crastle.

He followed more turns, traversed more corridors, calls going unheard and unanswered, until he realized he was well and truly lost. Ren stopped at a four-way intersection, glancing down each hall. They all felt familiar, but was that because they looked the same or because he truly recognized them?

Ren pulled his cloak tighter around himself, shivering. And when had it gotten so cold? He needed to tell Bdubs to install some sort of heating system in the castle, like magma blocks behind the walls or something. These were not livable temperatures, certainly not for a king.

Ren’s breath had begun to fog the air by the time he reached something that certainly didn’t belong: a set of arched glass doors, metalwork spiraling intricately across their frosted surface. The metal handles were bitterly cold, but they turned without protest as he pushed the double doors open.

Beyond lay a courtyard, dead branches hanging like corpses over flowerbeds full of dried leaves. A few inches of snow was dusted over everything in sight, drifting heavily in the corners and on the trees. Ren’s trepidation spiked. It was supposed to be summer on the Hermitcraft server, after all. And the Crastle didn’t have an interior garden.

He stepped out into the courtyard, bracing himself against the freezing gusts of air. His royal cape was woefully equipped to protect him from the full wrath of a winter’s wind. The harsh blasts died down into a biting breeze as he neared the center of the courtyard, snow crunching beneath his paws. Ren scarcely minded the cold as he stared wide-eyed at the centerpiece of this unnatural display.

A large stone altar rose from the ground, more of an elevated platform than anything else. Ren ascended its steps, captivated by the rough, indecipherable runes hewn deep into the surface. Lines had been cut straight across the top slab, radiating out from a shallow, bowl-like indentation at the middle. Blood channels, Ren realized with a growing horror. Blood channels that had clearly already been used.

A sudden growl had him tensing, ears lying flat and lips pulled back into a snarl. The sound seemed to emenate from every corner of the courtyard at once, circling as one would stalk prey. It was more than a threat. This was the hunting call of a predator.

Ren scanned the courtyard wildly, but there was nothing to see except a slate-gray sky bordered by gargoylic crenelations and the first few flurries of snowfall. The rumbling grew louder and louder, until the very air trembled before it. Oh, little wolf, the voice purred, smugly satisfied and impossibly deep.

“Who are you?” Ren shouted at the sky, hating the way his voice had gone high-pitched with fear.

The voice merely chuckled, the sinister whisper of a blade pulled from its sheath. Winter is coming, it intoned. And the crown weighs heavy.

Ren spun in place, breaths coming sharp and cold biting at his lungs. The voice was crushing him from all sides, pushing him down to his hands and knees on the cold, stone altar.

Do ye have what it takes to be KING, Rendog?

And Ren woke in his royal bedchambers, gasping for air and sheets soaked in sweat. His hands didn’t stop shaking for the rest of the day.

// I am just now getting into the 3rd life fandom (yes, a year late) and holy cow I love the Red King so much!! Big kudos to dog at the door by fluffy_papaya and iamsolarflare for getting me hooked on Ren’s lore, it’s one of my favorite fics ever. 

// For the voice, have you heard the voice of the Old God N’Zoth from the Warbringers short? Yeah, that but with a hint of Scottish accent. Very dark and powerful-sounding.

Deal? I like deals.... *eldritch laughter*

- N’Zoth the Corruptor

"Slightly niche source, but would you be able to to a request for a Eburnean Tommy fictive? It's essentially an au comic. With bunnies, lava/magma, and Nostalgia themed things if possible? Please nothing with blades if possible, and sorry if you can't Oh sorry about not specifying! We meant a stimboard, thanks for catching that!"

Sbi Fanfic Recommendations

Here are some SBI fics i’ve read on AO3 I thought I would share :). Some are one-shots, series, longer fics a mix of the sort. As well as a mix of different tropes. SOME ARE DARK SBI FICS SO PLEASE READ THE TAGS AND TW’s. As well as some might be crime boys, bedrock duo, etc. This is just all the fics i’ve read throughout 2022 so I’d thought i’d give recs for anyone who needs them! Anyways enjoy :). I will add more as the days go on but here are some from my list! :)

You Can’t Spell Student Government Without Three Letters From Stupid by leafcabbage: This is a Ranboo-Centric fic that features bench trio. I believe there are different POV’s and I know it isn’t just an SBI fic but I thought I would list it. This is the first fic apart of the series it’s in. This was honestly one of the best fics i’ve ever read. It talks a lot about struggling with mental illnesses and the stressors of being an overworked college student and it immediately draws you in. It is a long fic but i highly recommend. (Completed)

Might As Well Be Dead by Timeskip_God: This one is Tommy-Centric and features a lot of dark themes so pay attention to the warnings. Features Eburnean Tommy AU as well as SBI. I believe it takes place in the DSMP universe but i could be wrong. This one might be a tear jerker so watch out. Overall I love this fic and it was definitely a good one. 10/10 (Completed)

A Very Odd Family Indeed by Opheliabloo: This one I believe is multiple perspectives or it may just be Philza-Centric. It talks about how Philza finds children and says you’re mine now :). Has angst with happy ending so very good. (completed)

Little Flower by Peb_ble_sto_ne: Okay you better strap in because this one hurt. This is a one shot but it includes HEAVY angst. Switches from multiple POV’s. Tommy battles with depression while his brothers try to fix their broken relationship. This one is so sad but is so good. (completed)

That’s My Kid, My Sunrise by Spooky_mateo: Apocalypse AU with kid Shroud the Spider. Tommy-Centric. Tommy tried to keep his kid safe and finds something that was missing found along the way. Very Very good! (completed).

Too little, too late - but here to stay

by StarlaStar64

The day Tommy died, he was breathless, bruised, and scared, running desperately towards any haven that might save him from his tormentor.

That chilling laugh rang in the boy’s ears and coal burned in his lungs as he screamed for a saviour. Against all odds, his aching feet brought him through frigid snowfall to Philza’s doorstep, and he cried out for the man with his last breath.

The day Tommy died, once again he called for help - and no one came.

[moondragon618]

Hi! You just reblogged a comic of mine which was very cool! And I have actually been admiring your writing over on ao3 for a while now! You are very cool!

Anyway, there's an AU by @bludoby called Eburnean Tommy where basically all the ping-ponging from Limbo to back at the courtesy of Dream has turned Tommy into a lifeless husk, his hair is completely white (hence the name), he never talks, constantly has a single unchanging wide eyed look of fear on his face, shows no reaction to pain or *any* self-preservation and generally has about as much liveliness as a fucking bowling pin.

I've seen *a ton* of characters reaction to Tommy's new state (a good chunk of which I really like), but I've yet to see one of Dream, especially the ''obsessive'' take on Dream. Since, I imagine him to view Tommy's original personality as basically his only reason to live at this point and how horrifying these personality changes would be to him, I can see him at first being in denial thinking Tommy's just acting, but then afterwards essentially having a fucking mental breakdown. (Possibly killing Tommy and then himself)

What do you think would be your take?

Hello and thank you??? I'm glad to hear you like my writing so much <3 Your comic was very cool too btw lol :)

And firstly yesss I'm familiar with that AU and I love it lol <3

Secondly oh my god this concept to me is like the absolute worst possible case scenario for c!Dream- worse than the possibility of never gaining immortality and c!Tommy dying permanently, and if it were to happen after they're both immortal, worse even than Tommy somehow dying permanently and leaving him alone forever. Because Tommy is still there- he's just (in Dream's eyes, even though he'd be in heavy denial of it) irreparably broken beyond repair, an empty, hollow shell with basically nothing of him left.

You see, if it were just Tommy somehow dying permanently, then there would still be the possibility of the two of them reuniting in the afterlife- not ideal, sure, but it's still at least a chance that Dream won't be alone for the rest of eternity. And if it were to happen after they're immortal (very unlikely, it would literally take the power of XD or another God powerful enough to override the revival book completely and permanently), even then there would still be the hope that he could potentially get his Tommy back, even if it takes the rest of time :)

But this- this would be an undeniable point of no return. I could see it happening pretty easily as a result of Dream losing his temper and leaving Tommy in limbo a little too long- the isolation and sensory deprivation of Tommy's limbo would certainly do a number on him considering how sensitive he is to those things, especially after months and months or even years of it :) Your idea of what would happen is actually very close to mine lol- Dream would probably stay in denial for a very long time, at first telling himself that Tommy just needs a little time to recover and being extra soft and affectionate with him while deep down growing more and more distressed at Tommy's complete lack of reaction. Soon after, he'd start accusing Tommy of faking it, getting more and more desperate until he starts escalating into increasingly more and more horrific tortures just to try and get even a single reaction- only to get nothing.

Dream lives for Tommy's reactions to things, both positive and negative, so this would truly be torture for him. And the idea of his precious, beloved little Tommy being well and truly gone forever, with no chance of ever getting him back or even seeing him again by any means- that would be far worse than even the worst torture imaginable :)

And the fact that he can see his Tommy, right there and alive and breathing, makes it so, so much worse. Because it isn't really his Tommy. It's just an empty, soulless, hollowed out shell, a mockery of his precious and beloved little brother, his whole world, his everything :) :) :)

Dream would have countless mental breakdowns, probably on the regular. Tommy would see him cry and sob and beg and plead to him in pure desperation just like he often did to Dream, having no reaction to any of it. Perhaps being so heavily dissociated that he's not even aware of it. Meanwhile, Dream gets to feel what is quite possibly the closest thing he's ever felt to actual remorse :)

If they're not immortal, then Dream either remains in denial desperately trying to fix him until they both die, or he snaps first, killing Tommy and then himself.

If they are immortal, it's even worse- Dream could keep up his denial for hundreds or even thousands of years, if not longer, just going back and forth between desperately trying to fix Tommy and putting him through horrific tortures trying to get a reaction. Even if he snaps and kills Tommy with the intent to not bring him back, he can't kill himself because only Tommy can kill him.

Eventually, the loneliness would just make him crack and bring back Tommy again- which is almost worse, and so the cycle begins anew :) Maybe at some point he'd just go full Emperor Belos trying to find a way to recreate his beloved little brother, but to no avail- even the most perfect recreation is just not the same, because it's not his Tommy. It's not the Tommy who chased after him for his discs and fought wars against him and bonded with him in exile and prison and helped him find immortality- and so he always ends up going back to the original Tommy, even if the original Tommy is long gone. Even so, the empty husk that looks so much like him is the closest thing Dream has now.

And after all, they always end up finding their way back to each other, one way or another, don't they? :) :) :)

It would truly be a living hell of his own making :) His only option at that point would be to literally attain godhood somehow (which I like to think would be a lot more difficult for him without Tommy to keep him (mostly) stable lol) and basically force him back to "normal" through a combination of emotional manipulation (in the literally controlling Tommy's emotions sense lol) and altering his memories so that he doesn't remember what broke him and every horrific thing that came after, and even that doesn't mean he won't still slip back into that state again from time to time.

So yeah that's my take ig :) And thank you again btw this was such a cool idea to think about lol <3 And it gave me a chance to put c!Dream through The Horrors for once which was really fun lmao :)

Sorry if it's an unknown source, but would you be able to do moodboard for a Eburnean!Tommy fictive? With bunnies/cute animals, warm/cozy themes, and Nostalgia if possible? Please nothing with blades if possible, and sorry if you can't

- 💌🧪

I’ve heard of the Eburnean tommy au! It’s not my cuppa tea so I don’t know much but tbh with moodboards as long as I have themes given in the request it really doesn’t matter how well I know the source. Anywho hope you enjoy! Art is by @/bludoby_ on twitter! -Moozle Boozle
