"Come on, follow me." Tommy grabbed Jays hand as they walked towards the prison. "Okay, so, we need a plan." He looked up at a tall tower that was nearby, starting to run towards it. "Because Sam won't let me back in, so we have to have a plan to break in."

"Are you sure this is a good idea?"

"Of course it is!" Tommy walked through the entrance to the tower, looking around the inside. "This is perfect."

Jay sighed and followed him in. She was skeptical of the whole plan, but it was Tommy.

After a little while, she heard voices coming closer. She looked out a window and saw Tubbo and Ranboo approaching.

"Hey guys!" She yelled from the second floor, leaning over the railing. Tommy rolled his eyes and crossed his arms. Jay bumped his shoulder as she headed towards the ladder, ruffling his hair.

"Be nice." She said softly, heading down towards the two.

Tommy grumbled and followed behind her, heading out of the tower.

"That place is awesome, Tommy!" Tubbo said excitedly, smiling widely.

"Yeah, really cool." Ranboo nodded.

"Okay Ranboo." Tommy crossed his arms again.

"How are you two? How's Michael?" Jay asked.

"Good. Michaels good. He's been asking for you again." Ranboo said, leaning an arm on her shoulder. The boy was so freakishly tall, she really was just an arm rest for him.

"Alright, you giant, get off me." She shoved his arm away and glanced to Tommy, who was just kind of looking at Tubbo sadly. Tubbo followed her eyes to him, smiled adorably, and moved forward to wrap him in a hug. Tommy just settled into the embrace, leaning on his best friend.

Those two were just so cute.

Once they separated, Tommy glanced between Tubbo and Ranboo.

"So you two are..." he cleared his throat. "You got married without me?"

"Well, yeah."

"It was for tax reasons at first." Ranboo chimed in.

"You got married without my permission?" Tommy asked.

"Can we have your permission?" Tubbo asked softly.

"Does he make you happy?"

Tubbo glanced up at Ranboo. "Uh, yeah."

"Well alright then." Tommy turned and headed back into the tower. Jay looked up at Ranboo.

"That was him being nice." She whispered, then followed him.

A few days later, Tommy joined Tubbo, Ranboo, and Jay in their mansion that was being constructed. Well, it was Tubbo and Ranboos, not Jays, but you know.

"Can I meet Michael?" Tommy asked after a moment. Tubbo looked shocked, looking confused lay at Ranboo and Jay. "Big man?"

"Uh, Tubbo, you okay?" Ranboo asked.

"Yeah, yeah, just trying to... trying to think of the right response." Tubbo cleared his throat.

"Well, Ranboo, I can go see Michael, right?"

"Yeah, sure. I'm sure that would be fine. Come on." Ranboo turned and headed towards the house. Jay smiled and followed, both Tubbo and Tommy behind her.

They soon reached the house, it wasn't a very far walk at all. Ranboo climbed the ladder into his sons room, the rest of the group following behind. The child ran up to Ranboo immediately, reaching his hands up to be picked up.

"Hi buddy." He said softly, lifting the child into his arms. He ruffled the boys hair and kissed his forehead.

The rest filed in quietly. Tommy was silent as Tubbo walked up and took Michael out of Ranboos arms, cuddling him close. Ranboo smiled down at the two and wrapped an arm around Tubbo.

"He's... weird." Tommy said after a moment.

"Well that's not very nice." Tubbo set him down and Michael slowly walked over to Tommy, looking up at him.

Tommy, Ranboo, and Jay all headed out towards Dreams bunker. Tubbo wasn't feeling up to it, and so Ranboo and Jay promised to tag along.

As they approached, Jay could feel Tommy getting more and more nervous. But it wasn't until they reached the elevator that he really panicked.

Jay hit the button to bring them down, and Tommy immediately started breathing heavy, squeezing his hands into fists, and glancing around with wide eyes.

"It's alright, Tommy. It's just a room now." Jay said softly, sticking near him.

"Yeah. It's just a room..."

The elevator reached the bottom and they entered the vault.

This would hopefully be the last time.

Hey guys, I'm back! Hopefully for good.

So I think I'm gonna stray from canon from here on. I'm ready to move on.

Also a fun announcement; this book will be ending at chapter 30! I have a lot planned from now to then, though, so you'll have stuff to look forward to!

Hopefully the final chapters will be on schedule!

And thank you all for 100k! That's insane.

Go read Antarctic Empire if you haven't yet! It's a book about royal SBI!

Love you all and I'll see you soon.
