    Summary

    "Bye, Wilbur! I'll talk to you later!"

    Tommy gets off of the tube. He pulls on the straps of his backpack. He plays a Taylor Swift song in his headphones, and starts heading up and out of the underground. He gets to the top step, his feet landing next to one another. Tommy's world goes blank.

    Summary

    Dream didn't remember. He didn't remember anything he did to Tommy, didn't remember all the pain and destruction he had caused. "Bullshit!" Tommy yelled, futilely trying to escape from his friend's grips yet again. "How do you know that he's not manipulating you again? As he always does?!"

    After the egg takes over and kills everybody, they get reincarnated into the modern world with their memories from their first life and Tommy just really wants to kill Dream.

    Except that Dream doesn't remember.

    Summary

    In Manburg there's no mercy for criminals. Getting caught by the guards is an immediate death sentence.

    Tommy has managed to avoid them for 9 years now--by day, as an arrogant pickpocket with a mouth almost as fast as his hands, and by night as the renowned Underground thief known only as Theseus.

    Things are going well, all things considered.

    And then he gets a message from the infamous Antarctic gang and everything goes to shit.

    Now Tommy has to handle pulling off the heist of his life, all while hiding his true identity from both the tyrannical government and his new associates in the most feared gang in the city.

    Summary

    Tommy was handed a small flyer in printed in black and white, with the words “POETRY NIGHT - OPEN MIC” splayed across the front in bubbled font. He fumbled with his binder as he took it, eyes wide as he said, “are you sure? I mean, I love poetry and all, but I don’t think-I’m not sure—what if I can’t write poetry?”

    Mr. Sam’s dark eyes softened, and he reached out to place a hand on Tommy’s shoulder, squeezing it gently. “Everyone has to start somewhere; every poet, from me to Rudy Francisco, started off without knowing a clue about what we were doing. Tommy, it’s not about if you can or cannot write poetry, it’s about if you want to.”

    Summary

    Red Chaos was the name the world had bestowed upon him, and Dream had laughed as he dragged Tommy down against his chest in a rough sprawl back against the couch, squeezing him tight after their first official mission together.

    Tommy had done good and Dream had been proud.

    -

    Siren shifts, a look Tommy can’t be bothered to understand flashing briefly before his shoulders roll into a shrug.

    “You saved my life.”

    I know, Tommy thinks, lips drawing back in an ugly grimace. It ruined mine.

    -

    The morning paper lies discarded on the couch beside him with black bold headlines:

    RED CHAOS: HERO OR VILLAIN?
