Summary
“I’m doing everything wrong,” Tommy whispered. A deep, terrible feeling had crept up in his throat and pushed the beginnings of tears behind his eyes. “I don’t know how to do the right thing, or be a good person. I don’t know how to be good,” he admitted. “Will I ever be?”
Carl didn’t answer. It was an awfully big question for a horse.
“Maybe,” Tommy mumbled.
~~~~~~~~~~
Or: Tommy, sick of fighting and at his wit’s edge, heads north. To Technoblade. To warmth. To, maybe, the last safe place he has. Only thing is, Techno’s not ready to let him back in yet.

Summary
Out of his hero-gear, Techno should look just as intimidating as when he’s in it. He’s still absolutely massive, built in such a way that he could crush someone’s skull with just one hand. The absence of a mask means nothing, either, not when it gives direct access to stoic eyes, or the scars and battle wounds that nick at Techno’s jaw and stretch down the side of his nose.
Besides. Techno doesn’t need his costume to demand the obedience of the darkness.
Still. Still.
Tommy can’t be scared—not of this. Not when Techno’s hands are occupied with takeout bags, or when he’s wearing glasses low against his nose, or when his eyes meet Tommy’s and the corners of his mouth lift slightly. “Got takeout.”
---
Tommy is living a double life: at home, he spends time with his...mentor? Techno. At night, he goes out as the vigilante Flare.
It would be a lot easier if Techno wasn't the hero hunting him down. Oh—and if Techno didn't absolutely hate Flare.
But Tommy is determined to keep up the lie. He'll be fine! Right?

Summary
After the capture of the notorious supervillain, Nightmare, who had been reining terror down on the city for the past year, the Hero Coalition runs into some problems. Upon being unmasked, it's revealed Nightmare is not legally an adult and is the child of one of their top heroes.
The laws are complicated around children who put on masks. While the cops, lawyers, and heroes figure out how to handle this mess without leaking anything to the press, the kid needs to go somewhere. He can't go home with his adoptive father who is facing child negligence charges (not to mention the man's superhero alter ego had beaten the shit out of him live on camera last week). He can't go to a normal family with his dangerous powers. He can't even be thrown in jail without risking the scandal getting out.
So, they turn to Crowfather to save the day!
“Did you attend school?” asked Phil.
“Yeah.”
“What's your favorite subject?”
“The fuck are you doing old man?” he asked, suspicious but calm. At least... calm until his social worker spoke.
“Thomas,” he scolded, his hand coming down to squeeze the boy’s ankle.
Oh, Phil thought. The boy hadn't been kidding about the biting like a dog thing.

Summary
“Please,” one soldier told Techno over dinner, “The Blood God isn’t going to help you. He doesn’t accept any of the blood sacrifices the generals leave for him, so either he doesn’t exist, or he thinks he’s too good for the likes of us. Either way, it’s best to find a different patron.”
Techno had punched him in the face for that. None of his other comrades ever brought up the Blood God again.
Well, except for one.
“You follow the Blood God?” the new kid said, staring up at Techno with unbelievably blue eyes.
“Yeah,” Techno replied, perhaps a bit gruffer than he meant to, “What’s it to you?”
“Nothing!” the new kid said, grinning wildly, “I love that guy. He gets all the ladies. Hey, we should be friends!”Or: Techno is the last devout follower of the Blood God. Tommy may or may not be said god.

Summary
Techno's eyes travel from Tommy's head to his toes, recognition didn't flit across his face like Tommy had anticipated. Nine years did change a person a great deal. Techno, who had only been fourteen the last time Tommy had seen him, was now a grown man, well muscled, all traces of boyishness gone from his body. Though he was still recognizably Techno. Tommy on the other hand had been six. A runt with bright eyes and a firy personality. Tommy wondered if the years had rendered him too changed for his brother to know him.
Then it happened. Tommy saw the instant Techno put the pieces together. He stood up in a rush, his book falling to the floor in a heap, while his beer sloshed around in its bottle.
"Tommy?"
OR
Tommy winds up at Techno's doorstep after nine years of separation. He'd found him online via article. Apparently Tommy's brother was a semi famous bullrider. Tommy didn't care about that though, he just needed somewhere to stay. A cabin out in the middle of Texas would just have to do.
