    Summary

    “Be my apprentice,” Icarus blurted.

    Tommy blinked. Gradually, the corners of his mouth dropped into the deepest frown he’d ever made. “What the fuck? Why?”

    “Why?” Icarus froze and Tommy raised a judgemental eyebrow. “It’s because of your powers.”

    “My powers,” he echoed. “I never told you whether or not I had powers.”

    “I can… sense them,” Icarus bullshitted. Tommy pinched the bridge of his nose.

    “Right. What are they, then,” he retorted.

    “Uh… super… powers,” the villain answered, sounding more unsure of himself by the second.

    Tommy wanted to bash his head against a wall. “Really? That’s the best you could do?”

    ------

    Tommy isn’t sure why handing someone their keys is such a big deal, but now he’s left with a huge problem: Every supervillain in the city wants him to be their apprentice!

    - or -

    Tommy’s lame superpower turns out to be a game-changer.

    Summary

    “They want me to become an emergency foster parent.”
    “What’s that?”
    “It’s… Basically, I take in the kids who need immediate placement. It means that we can get a call at any time to take someone in, and usually won’t have much time to prepare, or information to prepare with. You won’t have a lot of warning, if any. You could come home from school one day and a kid will be here because I won’t have time to tell you."
    “That’s okay.”
    “Are you sure?”
    “Yeah, yeah. Tell them you want to be an… Emergency… Guy.”
    Phil grinned. “I’m glad you’re okay with this, Wilbur.”

    They get their first call barely a month later. At two in the morning, Phil shakes Wilbur awake to tell him the news.

     

    Or, a foster au centering on Wilbur and Tommy (and Techno's there too, of course), except it's not the same exact plot as all the other ones

    Summary

    "Let's start making it happen." As soon as those words fell out of Schlatt's mouth, a bright light nearly blinded everyone as well as the sound of a portal's unnatural hum.

    When the light died down and everyone got their vision back, a portal, structured like a Nether Portal but built out of metal and stone, glowing silver, stood right between and before the stage and the audience. They were stunned as a figure came out of said portal, tall, decked out in full enchanted netherite. A man with a familiar mask but unfamiliar clothes stood.

    "Where's Dream?" The man with the red hood, wearing Dream's mask immediately asked.

    Before anyone could even react or answer, the portal behind him flared brightly and the man jumped away with an annoyed grunt as another man decked in netherite tumbled out of the silver glowing portal. Wild dark hair, dark blue eyes, burnt scars underneath his chin-

    "Tubbo?" Tommy muttered in surprise, somehow recognizing him as his best friend.

    "Tommy!" The older Tubbo screamed, but not at Tommy who stood beside Wilbur. But at the masked man with the red hood.


    Two broken men stay in the past in hopes of a better future.
    Sequel Out!

    Summary

    He straightens, prepared for them to talk about his programs and jumps and achievements. Prepared for them to make him even more of a myth. To put him up higher on the pedestal that he was chained to. "Yes. I am- Tommy the olympic figure skater."

    "Tommy the figure skater who tried teaching Schlatt and made him fall on his ass?" Minx asks, eyes widening. "That Tommy?"

    Tommy pauses, then- "Um-"

    or, slowly, Tommy learns how to be more than just the gold medal winner that he was made to be
