    Summary

    The first time it happens, Tommy is sure it’s a mistake.

    It has to be. His coach is... strict, but he is the only constant Tommy really has nowadays. He wouldn’t just leave him.

    Tommy ignores the choke of doubt that floods up his throat, the one that says, He would.

    The minute Tommy stops being good, he would.

    ~ or, ice skater!tommy and his bad tendency of being left behind.

    (aka three times tommy was left behind by his coach plus one time he thought his team left him behind. spoiler: they'd never.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    this hits so so so close to home. as someone who's currently in a messed up relationship with their coach (not skating related tho), this brings me comfort for some reason.

    i wanted to read this mostly because i had a really bad run in with said coach today. i had a performance today that was really huge for my career (long story short i had this massive event that i was going to and i ended up messing up. badly.), and. i don't know. i mostly feel numb to it all especially now. even before my performance i was already having pessimistic thoughts about what would happen during and after and hey, at least not everything bad happened. only a few things. my coach kept on swearing at me and just highkey made me feel worse than i already was. i always thought coaches were supposed to uplift you and guide you through it. like, i get how they do tough love and enforce discipline, but man, i know for one that this is not the way to do it. especially not to me. i don't get why he doesn't see it's not working on me. just because it worked on you, or on other people you coached, doesn't mean it'll work for me too.

    and i don't know, i guess i'm also just getting sad that i'm starting to lose passion for what i'm doing. idk if i can keep doing this either. another thing that depresses me is when people go and say "you're lucky to have him as your coach" and yet. i feel anything but.

    and then i started to read these books. yeah it makes me sob and all but like i said in your other books, i love reading things that i can relate to on a real personal level. there's just something about crying and sobbing my heart out to reading those that makes me happy. it makes me happy just to feel something :)

    but anyway that's deep lolz. didn't mean for it to be that deep but oh well. i just want to give the kudos to the author so much for bringing me this much happiness and comfort in my life when i needed it. i'm praying for you, author, that you get the same. you're a lovely human being. i'm so glad you're in a huge part of my life even though i'm not so much in yours. i'm wishing you all the best. i hope you're able to read this. at least just this bit not the rest lol

    06-08-25 rereading !! needed yet another good lil cry 🥀

    sat jul 11 11:27 - rr !! i was looking for this fic for so long

    Summary

    Wilbur’s heart free-falls to the depths of his stomach when Tommy is dragged into the cell.

    “Tommy!” he shouts, voice breaking over his name, body lunging forward against the chains holding him. “Tommy, no, how– how did he get you?”

    Tommy’s eyes widen when he sees him.“Wil–"

    His voice breaks with a small grunt as he's thrown onto his knees at Wilbur's feet.

    ~ after being captured by a villain, wilbur's biggest weakness is used against him. (tommy was never supposed to get involved.)

    Summary

    "Don't do anything to him," Tommy manages, heartbeat throbbing and throbbing. "Please."

    Wilbur frowns, but it's Techno who steps forward. "Tommy, he's not going to do anything," Techno tells him cautiously. "You don't need to worry, alright?"

    To you, Tommy would say, if he was stronger. He's not going to do anything to you.

    But he doesn't. Tommy keeps his mouth shut—whatever it takes to stay.

     

    When Techno and Wilbur Soot-Watson anger a bully, it shouldn't be an issue. They are as untouchable as they can get, for students anyway.

    It's unfortunate that Tommy, their foster brother, isn't. Being their soft spot, it only makes sense that he becomes the next target.

    Summary

    Tommy's eyes flit over to him. Techno expects him to wave, to drift over, to let relief wash over his expression- seeing them as his respite from anything else he has to face. But no, that doesn't happen. Tommy casts his eyes over the lot of them and there isn't a single moment of recognition. No light, no relief. He looks even further confused, actually, with the way that his brow furrows.

    "Tommy?" Techno says again, but Tommy turns forward, continuing his walk like they mean nothing to him. Like Techno means nothing to him.

    or, Techno has a nightmare.

    Summary

    Tommy looks down the way that he left frantically, like he's waiting for the man to pop out of the shadows. "I'm not- I should really get to-"

    "Do you need some help?" Purpled blurts. Hit the heart. Get to the core. Purpled has Punz, maybe Tommy could have Purpled.

    Tommy looks even more startled, if that was possible. "Wh- what?"

    or, eight other points of view from the events of Icing Those Hurts, and the one that matters the most.
