《What He Was (✓)》Author's Note
Advertisement
This story isn't meant to offend anyone in any way. It just came to me one day when I read an article about a woman who abused her own child to death.
It isn't always easy to stand up to someone who wields power over you. It isn't always easy to keep courage, to stay strong. And it sure as hell isn't easy to forget and move on.
We, who have never experienced such a thing can speak all we like about what the person in question could and should have done. We can draw conclusions all we want, but in truth, we have no idea what sort of fear the person has harboured in their past.
This was my take on the subject. This story was not meant to entertain. I hope you understood the message.
Be kind to everyone you meet.
Pray for those who need it.
Help out when you can.
Evelyn.

absolution.
When Tommy dies, he expects to see Wilbur. Or Schlatt. Hell, even Mexican Dream. After all, that'd mean that there was at least an afterlife in the DreamSMP. What he doesn't expect is to wake up to another world, one that his communicator tells him isn't exactly a server. He can't seem to find any other servers, this one doesn't have a whitelist, and... there's no admin. No Dream. Instead, there are heroes. Heroes, villains, vigilantes, and civilians. There are powers called quirks, and they don't come from hybrid traits--they're natural. There's an entirely different society, one that doesn't have records of discs, mistakes, and the Blood God in its history for its base. There are schools that teach hero-wannabes how to soar to the top, and there are villains capable of flipping the world over its very roots. There were no heroes in his past life. Tommy himself is far from one.Yet maybe, in this life, he can at least try to be there for those who need it.===or; in which Tommy Innit "Theseus" Craft becomes a vigilante, a cafe barista, and then a somewhat-hero, wrecking BnHA canon in the processor, a dsmp x bnha crossover because i'm in love with the idea===(WARNING: this fic will depict lots, and i mean Lots, of sensitive themes, including but not limited to: violence, trauma, suicide themes, etc. due to the dsmp in general as well as how i'm making this realistic as i can. if you are triggered by some of these sensitive topics or what c!tommy goes through, DO NOT READ THIS.
