He couldn’t tell Phil or Techno. They probably would think he’s crazy, and how does he even explain the situation anyways? “Oh yeah, I just went to bed after being exiled from my country in another timeline and woke up here. Sorry for the trouble, guys!”
What are they going to do when they find out he’s not their Tommy?
Oh god. What happened to their Tommy? Is he in Tommy’s world?
Tommy feels himself grow even more sick at the thought. Phil and Techno would kill him if they found out he’d sent their Tommy to that hell. That hell with exile, and war, and Dream.

In which Tommy, exiled hero of the DreamSMP, and Prince Tommy of the Antarctic Empire swap places, families are semi-reunited, and Dream causes problems (as always).
Shells in the Foam (a Hermit!Tommy fanfic) by Cedarwhisp21 [Rated T, 90720 words, incomplete, last updated January 2022]
When Dream attacks Tommy in Logestshire, Tommy runs. Badly injured, he somehow manages to slip between worlds and wakes up in a badlands biome, on a server far from home, with no other players in sight.
The Hermits are surprised when a new player logs in, and confused when no-one's at spawn. Five days later, after waiting for the new player to introduce themselves, Xisuma uses his admin abilities to access their coordinates. He takes Impulse with him to welcome the new player to Hermitcraft, but instead of the beginnings of a base, they find something a lot more concerning.
AU belongs to @pertrichormeraki on Tumblr. I just wanted to write something.

Passerine!Tommy and DSMP!Tommy switch places after each of their deaths, let's see where this will go.
you don't bring me flowers anymore by Shrai [Rated T, 33765 words, incomplete, last updated December 2021]
There's that deep visceral type of sadness that finds a home inside your bones and never seems to leave. Some days it's ignorable, just a minor obstacle in your day. Other times it's loud and true, grasping at every inch of your being and filling your senses with such emotion that it feels like it's too much. Regret, sadness, anger. All of them add up to what swallowed the brothers up whole: grief.
Even though they had Tommy back that feeling still rang true in their hearts. Their Tommy was still dead and gone, forgotten if fate decides it so. If this Tommy, this strange and broken and angry Tommy, stuck around, were they expected to forget about their Tommy?

or: i heard someone say "what if passerine wilbur and techno met dsmp tommy" and my brain has not stopped thinking since please

He hears birdsong.
That's the first thing he notices, when he's able to breathe past the pain in his ribs. When he opens his eyes to green leaves and a blue summer sky, he thinks he's dreaming. The sky is never blue in the Dream SMP, not after all the explosions. It's always tinged with grey, the scent of ash and wood smoke subtle in the air. When was the last time he was somewhere with clean air? Exile?
He sits up. The pain is blinding, but he grits his teeth against it, hands tight around the wound in his side. He looks around, really looks around, and it takes everything he has to keep from screaming. Nothing but woods on every side, trees swaying gently in a warm breeze, birds flittering from branch to branch. Fuck.
He falls back with a thump, and immediately regrets it, hissing in pain. Well, one thing's for sure. He's not in fucking Kansas anymore.
(Alternatively, Tommy gets gravely injured, and to save his life, Dream drop kicks him to a different server. Unfortunately for him, it has the opposite effect than what he was expecting.)
I'm dying on exam preparation ahah. little au with partners in crime
a small addition
Selina Kyle attempts to rob Wayne Manor early in her career. Bruce catches her but the two strike up an instant rapport. Selina "Gives up" her stealing ways and the two eventually marry.
The newlywed couple decided to go to the circus where they watch the Flying Grayson's fatal show. They quickly adopt young Dick Grayson who soon joins Selina as the first ever Stray.
Some years go by with Bruce still none the wiser to his family's hidden life. On one particular day out the Wayne family is found strolling along Robbinson park when a young thief snatches Selina's purse. The trio chase down the purse snatcher as he ducks into an abandoned apartment building. Dick is the first to find the younger boy who is now huddled with an even smaller kid, purse held tightly against his chest. Dick easily recognizes the youngest boy as Timothy Drake.
Tim's parents had died on an overseas trip, and their entire fortune was lost in legal courts. Tim was forced into foster care but quickly ran away and was forced to live out on the streets. This is where he meets Jason Todd, an orphan himself the two formed a strong bond as they attempted to survive on Gotham's deadliest streets.
Selina can't help but pity the poor boys. And having noticed the skills with which Jason was able to evade capture for some minutes she offers to adopt the young boys. Bruce is shocked but Selina quickly reminds him of the background she comes from and the way they had meet. She explains that she wants to help the poor duo live the life she has been given and never resort to stealing again.
And though she may love the two boys deeply even she knows the real reason for her kindness is found in growing the ranks of The CatFamily.
(I'm sure others have come up with similar concepts to this. If so, I hope I was able to add enough of my own flair to make this post stand out. Alfred is still a big part of Bruce's life though he feigns ignorance over Selina's night life. Bruce has his inklings of what she may be doing but has never followed through with his assumptions because he loves his wife too much. And despite the way I worded the last paragraph I do want to point out that Selina through all of this one hundred percent loves her kids. Yes, she uses them for her gain, but she treats them as if they were her own kids. Not sure how Damian or Steph, Cass and all the others would fit in. But hey that's up to your own interpretation. Hope you Enjoyed :)
hello vat7k nation
Happy Birthday Timmy!!
